Have you or a loved one been unexpectedly magically impregnated by an omnipotent Eldritch chaos deity? You may be entitled to financial compensation.

How do you feel about the various Marvel speedsters, most prominent of course being Quicksilver but also Northstar, Makkari and Speed?

Speed is baby and I love him. Seriously though I've been a Tommy fan for a long time. House of M was one of the first comics I've ever read. My parents took me to a comic book store and I hand picked it out of all the others. It was the first comic I chose to buy (albeit with my parent's money because I was a child). My younger brother was in the hospital at the time, he's better now but at the time it was hit or miss, and I was keeping him company so they wanted me to have something to read while he was comatose. I think I read that book front to back 50 times. Despite its faults House of M will always have a special place in my heart because of that.

The whole convoluted mess that is the Maximoff family is fantastic. Pietro and Tommy included. I'm particularly a fan of Speed though. He's great in the Young Avengers and whenever he shows up with Prodigy and I just really really really like the guy. He's like a kicked puppy in the rain. I wanna give him a blanket and food and another puppy to be friends with. He's so sad.

Pietro I like but in a 'oh my god he's such a fuck up, ain't he great?' kinda way. I really love him. He is such a fuck up though I swear to god. It's different from Tommy too. Tommy is a kid who just wants stability and love and is terrified of being hurt. His 'bad decisions' are a thinly veiled mask for a traumatized kid. But Pietro??? Pietro wakes up and says 'today I'm going to make the worst decisions possible' and then he does it. He kidnapped his daughter at one point, which almost caused a war, and then drugged her, with sacred religious and volatile drugs he stole, to give her powers, which could have killed her. He makes very bad decisions.

Northstar is a bit of an asshole. I'm going to be honest here... I'm not really a Northstar fan. I think it kinda defeats the purpose of Marvel having speedsters in the first place if Northstar is ten times faster than them. It'd be like if Superman was faster than the Flash. It just kinda sucks the air out of Marvel speedsters in general. Like, cool, this random mutant can fly way faster than the speedsters and they have no chance in hell at being faster than him. That's great I guess.

Makkari I'm not super familiar with. I do like Marvel but I definitely don't have the same in-depth knowledge on Marvel lore as I do for DC lore.

Oh also there's Speedball. I think he would count as a speedster? It's been a while since I've read his stuff. If I remember correctly he absorbs energy and then uses it to bounce around at superspeed and create kinetic energy fields. He's connected to space and time and he can control kinetic energy and motion. He can control his molecules and one time he used his kinetic energy to make a suit. He doesn't run but he's still the closest thing Marvel has to a DC speedster.

It is.... extremely unfortunate what happened to him. They took a good, fun loving, nice, happy and wholesome guy and made him the catalyst for Civil War. Had him be responsible for a city blowing up. Took this sweet kind guy and made him a reckless asshole who killed thousands. Then they gave him an edgy make over and had him come back as the darker meaner bader version of himself. Anyway. I was a Speedball fan. Civil War trashed his character though.

saw a post on here that changed my brain chemistry. image related this is what i imagine the sages' blood looks like

Also I imagine it like. glows slightly. like ichor ig

[socialpermadeath]

My coworker and I are having such vastly different BG3 experiences. I'll mention something lore related like Rolan and Lorroakan or Gale's tressym or even just Dammon's entire character and he seems so confused. He just isn't interacting with the plot. On the reverse, I... Am not good at combat. Every fight is a struggle for survival and I often need 5 or 6 attempts to get through anything big. College of lore vs college of swords. He might be able to do huge amounts of damage per turn but I know that Haarlep keeps an intimacy guidebook on the edge of the bathtub.

Koschei's Sleeping Beauty retelling 🌹

I've found Koschei's sleeping beauty details so here it is

_In the tale, it is said that once Koschei focuses his gaze on the chosen princess, he is capable of exerting a powerful influence over her. He recites ancient, arcane words, and the maiden collapses gracefully, falling into a deep, unbreakable sleep, immune to the passage of time.

_ Koschei was described to be surrounded by shadows and swirling mist. He then takes the princess to his grand hall with a bone throne, where she waits for the hero who can break the spell.

*In SF:

The being that stood atop the lake was a shadow. It must be a reflection, Cassian thought. Smoke and mirrors. "Where is Briallyn?" Azriel demanded, Siphons flaring like cobalt flame. “I spend so many months preparing for you,” Koschei crooned, “and you don’t even wish to speak to me?”

*Koschei in the book is described as a shadow being as in the tale. Plus he could be trying to lure Azriel to the lake because once he can fix his gaze on him he'll be able to manipulate him with his power and enchant him with unbreakable sleep.

What I think is that Koschei could have been trapped in the lake using the Starsword, so he needs the TT to undo it. That's why he wants Az because he owns the dagger, so he could curse him with eternal sleep and try to make Elain free him from the lake in exchange for breaking Azriel's curse.

_In the tale, the only way to break the enchantment is through an instrument called the gusli which is very similar to the harp.

Gusli. Harp.

_The strings of the gusli are made of pure silver and inbued with encient magic, when played correctly they emit a powerful, harmonic resonance that can break the spell and awaken the princess.

*In SF, the harp has ancient magic in its strings, and they are also made of silver:

The golden Harp, covered in intricate embossing, set with silver strings.

The small strings are for games—light movement and leaping—but the longer, the final ones … Such deep wonders and horrors we could strum into being.

_In the tale, for the Gusli's magic to work, it should be played by a hero who is pure of heart and noble intent.

*We know that Elain can use the harp because she's a cauldron made, and we also know that she has a different kind of strength:

“Elain had always been gentle and sweet—and I had considered it a different kind of strength. A better strength. To look at the hardness of the world and choose, over and over, to love, to be kind. She had always been so full of light.”

She is someone pure of heart, and her love for Azriel will definitely be strong and pure, so I think that could be another reason why she's the one who can break his curse 🥰

My theory about the harp is that, since in Hofas it was said that it can transfer one's power to the soul of another. Therefore, Elain may be able to give a portion of her life power to Az's soul through the harp to awaken him.

HIRAETH GOODFELLOW - BIO

Name: Hiraeth Goodfellow Nickname: The Silvertongued Saltimbanco Age: 33 years old Height: 1.73m Race: Half-Sea Elf Class: Bard/Warlock Patron: Titania Background: Entertainer Hometown: T'Quession (Deepwater Harbour of Watereep) Alignment: Chaotic Good Love Interest: Gale Dekarios

----------

FINALLY.

FINALLY I MANAGED TO CREATE A CHARACTER FOR MR. DEKARIOS AND FINALLY I FOUND A STORY FOR THEM.

Allow me to finally show you my darling Hiraeth!

I am still finalizing her backstory, but I am already pretty much set on the fact that Hiraeth made her pact with Titania as a child, after ending up in the Feywild one time too many.

Ever the dreamer, Hiraeth has a cheeky attitude and a joie-de-vivre that I think would truly counterbalance Gale's more serious disposition. But in truth, she is A HUGE DORK. She is intelligent, passionate, kind and genuine (she cannot fake it till you make it not even if her life was on the line), impish, playful and mischievous. and she is particularly apt at dreamwalking inside the Dreamscape.

I like to imagine that they already met before the beginning of BG3, as children in the streets of Waterdeep and later while Hiraeth was performing for the Witchlight Carnival as Saltimbanco and Trapezist.

I will write more about her once I am actually able to sit down probely and finalize her story!

I am so excited for this, because FINALLY I CAN DRAW HER SMOOCHING GALE.

FINALLY.

(seriously, I have been brainstorming for a new character for Gale since FOREVER, and finally I was able to find an angle that is intriguing me a ALOT).

(also, allow me also to share the version of the artwork with the cards that she use. Althought, those are not tarots, they are cards inbued with spells lololol)

I hope you will like her <3

Grian, have your cauldron, brewing stand, and a few ingredients on the house!

Karen, have your coffee.

Pearl, here's your vaccines and any other equipment that is needed to give them to Olive!

Scar, have a few libraries! Also a bit of paint if you want to personalize them!

« Martyn, I am so sorry for what the fox put you through. Had I known it would go rampage and try to maul people, I wouldn't have sent it. I'm sorry. »

- Jay

Grian: Ohhh this is perfect!

Scar: Indeed...now time to put these to good use.

Pearl: Good good... how does one do...vaccines?

~~~~~

Scott: Well, first of all that was uncalled for...seeing how you asked me to wrangle the foxes fully knowing they were inbued with demon powers and that one of them was rabid... second of all I don't think the teacup can do complex stuff like this. Still you did make it and It's really good so we are cool now I guess.

~~~~~

Martyn: You actually apologized? I uh expected many things but not that. ...Well then.

The Mask-Making Artisan 👺

I showed sneak peeks on IG for what my sona would look like in the Wakfu AU, but I made small updates in their design to what you see here now.

While they can make many forms of art and trinkets, their specialty is to craft masks inbued with memories as a way to preserve moments of history during Ogrest's Chaos. One who wears them would experience the exact moments that they had went through at the time, including sight, sound and touch.

Egg is here too in Borbat form. :3
