Designing more background/minor characters for SRC, this time Shelem's mom and the owner of The Ricottage.
Euchre [pronounced yoo-ker] is a mature sorcerer woman who left Khartes Trichier behind to start a cheesemaking business on mainland Cier. At the time, she had brought her husband with her - said husband, being an animal farmer, bringing young khormun stock to the mainland so they could bring milk with them too.
Euchre's husband has since passed away due to health complications, but the farm her family ran has since been taken over by trusted family friends. Just before her husband passed away, Euchre had her first and only daughter Shelem, who changed the course of her life for the better after the devastating loss of her husband.
Nowadays she doesn't work as much due to her own health and mental complications, but she still runs The Ricottage and entrusts her chickatoo friend Stilton with most of the hard customer work inside. If or when she becomes too ill to work anymore, she plans on passing the business on to her daughter.
It's actually not uncommon for female sorcerers to have good amounts of facial hair. This leads to them being increasingly androgynous to human eyes, but it's just a normal feature of a woman's face over in their lands, to the point that men with facial hair are essentially equated to femboys in Khartes Trichier.

Motivos de Euchre, capitulo 22-Pagina 29-Tira 1219.
Euchre le revela a Raine que el dio el collar que suprimir su magia por que es parte de su gran plan, y le dice que le imparta tanto como a cualquiera, que en mi opinión es como decirle que no la quiere sin decirle que no la quiere, y por lo que dice al final puede ser que realmente Rose todavía este con nosotros.

This is a partly formed thought, so bear with me here.
God is shown as playing a game of cards with the universe.
Is God playing euchre?
Something about playing with opposing teams and people having to trust their partners because they can't share their cards.
And Agnes Nutter referring to Aziraphale and Crowley as "the Two Powers" and euchre has two bowers, which are two Jacks.
And there being a situation where a Jack of Clubs is actually a Jack of Spades (hidden in plain sight sort of stuff).
And the two Joker cards were invented because of the game euchre.
And each play being called a trick. Euchre is a game of tricks.
And in British rules there is a play called Playing Policemen. Muriel comes to mind.
There is also a play called Going Alone, the ultimate flex in a euchre game. It’s a high-risk, high-reward move in euchre where a player is confident they can play and win all five tricks in a hand without the help of their partner. Sort of like Aziraphale going it alone in Heaven to stop the Second Coming.
And the game being described as sort of chaotic and hard to understand.
I don't entirely understand this game, but enough details seem to relate to the show that I wonder. Maybe someone with more experience with euchre could add to this.

The most relatable moment in Jane Austen’s entire collected works, for me as a devoted card and board game player:
“What shall I do, Sir Thomas? Whist and speculation; which will amuse me most?” [Lady Bertram]
Sir Thomas, after a moment’s thought, recommended speculation. He was a whist player himself, and perhaps might feel that it would not much amuse him to have her for a partner.
As a euchre player myself (both euchre and whist being related to bridge, trick taking games with trump) I feel this. I feel it deep. If I was Sir Thomas I would never want to play a paired card game with my non-gaming wife (though I won’t throw her all the way under the bus, she seems to be able to play cribbage). Playing with someone who doesn’t know the game means your aces get trumped and they make bad calls and get you euchred!
I too would play opposite the ruthless Mrs. Norris. There are no morals when it comes to cards.
Context: whist is a game you play in pairs. It has a trump (a suit that beats all other suits) and involves taking tricks (everyone plays one card and the highest wins) and following suit (if you have spades and spades is lead, you play spades). While I have not played, it is similar to euchre and bridge. Those games require you to pay attention to your partner’s play and remember what cards have been played previously. Look, I’ll teach new people, but it is way more fun to play with experienced players.

I don't have time to make real funny man memes but
#video#tim robinson#euchre#i gotta go see what those gems in the euchre tag are up to#heyo hoosier geriatrics#i hope you know that i will never achieve such heights of strategic intellectualism as you#the sacred mysteries of euchre have never survived the journey#from your hands through my skull to my oatmeal mush brain#deepest condolences on that.

A WINNING ROUND WAS PLAYED WITHOUT ME, THE ONLY HUMAN PLAYER
oh and this was directly after the round where I HAD GONE ALONE AND SWEPT WITH THE RIGHT, LEFT, KING, AND QUEEN OF SPADES, AND AN ACE OF HEARTS

sorry to any of my hardcore chess obsessed mutuals if they exist but i fucking hate when i say i enjoy playing chess and peeps ask questions like "whats your ratio" or whatever it is they asked me. I said i enjoy chess, not that I've got an alter to it and i play every day. i wouldn't enjoy it then. i play it occasionally with my sister or dad or grandma or friend. i do it for fun. its not like its euchre or backgammon or quarter poker or mao or aggravation, where my family keeps a scorebook for it, i couldnt tell you wtf my ratio is.
#ive only been on the loosing team for euchre once#i can beat my sister and my mom at backgammon but not my dad#my little sister owns us all in quarter poker#my dad doesnt let us play mao rarely ever because he doesnt understand the rules but im fairly okay there#and aggravation is more luck than skill but i typically do fairly well there#hardcore chess folks annoy the hell out of me though#chess#euchre#backgammon#quarter poker#mao#aggravation#games#card games#board games

Templar Organization
Concepto básico de la estructura de los templarios, que bien con mucho texto, boceto sugerido por SpillTheFire6.
El mucho texto
Historia:
Los templarios empezaron como un gremio minúsculo, financiado por un individuo con buenos contactos (que Tom aún no he tenido tiempo de desarrollar). Sólo cobraron importancia durante la primera guerra contra los Keidran, cientos de años antes del comienzo del cómic. Una guerra en la que la raza humana estaba perdiendo terreno debido al abrumador número de Keidran, hasta que los templarios ayudaron a cambiar las cosas. Esto los hizo muy populares entre la población humana, que los veía como nobles protectores en lugar de como los fanáticos en los que acabaron convirtiéndose.
Jerarquía básica:
El Gran Templario está en la cima y controla la dirección general del gremio. Los Maestros Templarios actúan como su círculo íntimo, básicamente como un consejo de administración. Tienen áreas en las que se centran, pero hay muchas en común. Delegan tareas en los Altos Templarios, que son los comandantes superiores de los distintos Cuerpos Templarios. A partir de ahí, se dividen en funciones y rangos más específicos, dependiendo del cuerpo, desde Magos y Caballeros hasta Iniciados.
Los templarios tienen muchos I y D "extraoficiales" y empleados secretos que no son técnicamente parte de la organización, y hay muchas luchas internas entre los rangos con respecto a qué departamento debería controlar qué y quién debería estar en la cima.
----
Esto me llevó mucho tiempo e investigación, ya que el funcionamiento interno de los templarios no es algo que haya desarrollado completamente en mis notas personales. Tenga en cuenta que no soy el director de una organización malvada en la vida real, así que si hay alguna laguna o problema con respecto a cómo se gestionaría realmente una gran empresa, ¡Le pido disculpas! Si tienes experiencia, no dudes en compartir tu opinión, me encantaría conocerla.

That moment when I can *feel* Charlie's presence, so I say a few things, then put my hands out, and Euchre *runs* to accept the love. She then lays in Char's spot on the couch. And earlier she played with Charlie's ball, which she's never played with before.
#the ball was across the living room#like what#and shes laying in her bed#and so so so cuddly#im so thankful for her#charliegirl#euchre

Me in the middle of explaining Euchre to my east coast friends: So the Jack in the chosen suit is the highest card and the other Jack of the same color is the 2nd highest card
My friends: ????
Me: *sighs and hold up the Jack of clubs* this guy is highest card
Me: *hold up the Jack of spades* this is his boyfriend. He is the 2nd highest card.
My friends: OOOOHHHHH

"Mama, My Coat's Too Big"
“I hope you realize that every day is a fresh start for you. That every sunrise is a new chapter in your life waiting to be written.” ― Juansen Dizon Rising early on the fourth day of a New Year seems prudent and wise but also a little desperate. I am eager to start a new chapter, to begin again, to write a different story for this stagnant old soul, not with movement, but in the way of…
