#KALAMIT

[knarme-art]

New design and reference for Kalamit! Now I he's ready for Art Fight...

[eldritch-spouse]

Okay, so other than Vorticia cause her’s has already been figured out, and Vesper and Livius cause I have no fucking clue (which makes sense for Livius but I’m disappointed I couldn’t think of anything with Vesper, other than maybe Ves-purr cause he’s the most comfortable with rumbling but it doesn’t satisfy me enough to call it a pun) I’ve been thinking on the name puns

Zizz (snoring sfx)

Rinx Takara (rings and take)

Kalymir (claymore, a type of sword)

Cero (DEFINITELY a MAJOR stretch that would put Livius to shame, but uhh… sounds like Zero? As in “zero people are better than him”????? I’m not convinced on it)

I've detailed this before, but I'll say it again I guess.

Vorticia = Vore + Morticia

Rinx is a play on the word "rings", yes.

Zizz is a pretty direct pun on the expression "Catching 'Z's"

Vesper is named the same way Santi is. Very religious names for monsters who revel in whoredom and sexual corruption.

Kalymir isn't a pun, so much as it was me playing with the word "calamity" until I could find something I liked (Calamity, Kalamit, Kalymit, Kalymir).

Cero is, correctly associated to "zero", because he truly is a zero out of ten as a person. Cero is also a word associated with "wax" (cera), and he's known for waxing poetic, to a fault.

Livius is a real name of latin-roman origin that directly means "envious or livid". Both good descriptors of him. It can also be associated to the color blue.

In days past, a commune of mages known as the Sulari dwelt in the low-lying hills south of the Hanaira Canyon. Great in power and wisdom, they used their gifts to bless the land of Fairhaven. When their seers warned of poor harvests, the people rationed their resources, while gathering grain to feed their livestock, and nurturing the rivers to ward off starvation. Alchemists crafted elixirs of health and strength, and the commune established a healthy trade with the outside world. Conjurers and architects combined their skills to advance technology. People flocked from far and wide, even from distant lands across the sea, to reap the benefits of the Sulari’s gifts, and their commune became a great city. A century later, the land of Fairhaven has fallen victim to a terrible Curse. Across the realm, crops fail and livestock seem to drop dead spontaneously. Food has become scarce, and communities suffer. However, in a little market town called Kalamit, a band of fighters and unlikely friends comes together to right the wrongs which the land has suffered, and set out on a great journey to lift the Curse and restore the land to peace once again.

(OR: the DnD AU nobody asked for)

Chapter 2: Setting out on their quest, the Party's first stop is Sancora, the largest city in the realm. However, the road is long, and often treacherous, and always full of secrets.

[videli-jste-tento-film]

tumblr nezná Kalamitu :(

Přemýšlivý mladý muž Honza Dostál (Bolek Polívka) z vlastní vůle zanechal studií na vysoké škole, aby si konečně našel pořádnou práci. Nastoupí u dráhy s cílem stát se strojvůdcem. Během prvních týdnů svého "opravdového života" prožívá řadu menších osobních kalamit prakticky s každým, koho potká, zejména však se třemi svéráznými ženami: amatérskou sáňkařskou závodnicí Majkou (Dagmar Bláhová), primářkou z chirurgie (Jana Synková) a potrhlou průvodčí Květou (Jaroslava Kretschmerová). To však není nic proti tomu, když hned na své první samostatné jízdě vlakem uvízne napřed v z��věji a vzápětí pod sesunutou masou sněhu. V neprodyšně uzavřeném vagonu se lidské slabosti projeví daleko silněji než v běžných situacích... (ČT)

Tady jen pro vás ukázka. Celý film je na youtube. Jen myslete na to, že Kalamita 1987 není tento film, ale záběry ze skutečné události :D.

Kalamite

Image © Martin McKenna

[The kalamite appears first in the Fighting Fantasy book Daggers of Darkness. The telescoping limbs appear in the original, but Beyond the Pit isn’t specific about how far they telescope. So I had to use a value judgement. This art gives me Scary Stories to Tell In the Dark vibes.]

Kalamite CR 8 N Plant This creature appears to be a tall, thin humanoid made of wood. It has no neck, but a leering face, and its limbs bear multiple joints like a stalk of bamboo.

Kalamites are plant creatures that protect wetland environments. They seek to keep marshes from being drained for their rich soil, as wetlands are sources of water purification and hubs of biodiversity that affect all of the ecosystems around them. Kalamites can be found in both saltwater and freshwater marshes, and in all climates.  They are similar to treants, but less goodly in nature and more likely to attack first and ask questions later. Sometimes the ranges of kalamites and treants even overlap, in places like swamps and mangrove forests; the two species are loosely cooperative, but rarely social. Kalamites tolerate evil humanoids, such as goblins and boggards, in their marshes as long as they make no effort to alter the environment on a large scale.

A kalamite’s primary weapons are its oversized claws. Their arms and legs are telescoping, which they use to gain height to survey their domains and to grab enemies from afar. Creatures so grabbed are squeezed to death, or possibly forced facedown into the water until they stop struggling. If enemies keep their distance beyond a kalamite’s long stride, the plant will scoop up wads of mud and throw them—they have an uncanny ability to aim for the eyes.

Kalamite              CR 8 XP 4,800 N Large plant Init +4; Senses low-light vision, Perception +10 Defense AC 21, touch 14, flat-footed 16 (-1 size, +4 Dex, +1 dodge, +7 natural) hp 102 (12d8+48) Fort +12, Ref +7, Will +6 DR 10/slashing; Resist acid 10, fire 10 Offense Speed 50 ft. Melee 2 claws +14 (2d6+6/19-20 plus grab) Ranged mud ball +12 (1d6+6 plus blindness) Space 10 ft.; Reach 10 ft. (20 ft. with telescoping limbs) Special Attacks constrict (2d6+9) Statistics Str 22, Dex 19, Con 19, Int 10, Wis 17, Cha 12 Base Atk +9; CMB +16 (+20 grapple); CMD 31 Feats Combat Reflexes, Dodge, Improved Critical (claw), Power Attack, Stand Still, Stealthy Skills Escape Artist +10, Perception +10, Stealth +19, Swim +10 Languages Common, Treant SQ swamp stride, telescopic limbs Ecology Environment any marshes Organization solitary, pair or bushel (3-8) Treasure standard Special Abilities Mud Ball (Ex) As a standard action, a kalamite can throw a handful of mud. Treat this as a ranged attack with a thrown weapon with a range increment of 30 feet. A creature struck by the mud ball takes 1d6 damage, plus the kalamite’s Strength bonus, and must succeed a DC 20 Reflex save or be blinded for 1d4+1 rounds. The save DC is Dexterity based. Swamp Stride (Ex) A kalamite can move through difficult terrain caused by natural features of marsh environments, such as mud, water or undergrowth, without penalty. Telescoping Limbs (Ex) A kalamite can extend or contract any of its limbs, gaining up to 10 feet in length to any of them, or pulling them flush to its body. A kalamite can use its legs to gain height over obstacles; a kalamite ignores the effects of cover and treats improved cover as cover, as long as the obstacle is less than 15 feet high. A kalamite can scale obstacles of 15 feet or lower without making Climb checks, but it treats such obstacles as difficult terrain. If a kalamite uses this ability with its arms, it gains an additional 10 feet of reach, but does not threaten squares 10 feet or closer to itself. A kalamite using this ability with its arms can extend one arm and keep the other arm at normal length, granting itself one attack with each range of reach.

refs for artfight! i planned to do most of them with doodles I already had, but then ended up drawing a lot from scratch... I think only Ambrose and Alweis were reused

I'm gonna be prioritizing revenges, but feel free to attack or friendly fire me @ Kalamitous on ArtFight! c:

[knarme-art]

Probably my favorite drawing of my sona ever... Updating Kalamit's design to feel even more like me, just following what phantom body sensations tell me basically.

[eldritch-spouse]

Pinnie can we pleaseee have some more info about Kalymir because I love him already 😩 what does he call his s/o and how does he treat you once he takes you to hell? Also what was the inspiration for his name?

[Putting a couple of Kaly asks under the cut, hope you all don't mind.]

His most common nickname for you is "runt", sometimes "softie". Although most of what he calls you is insulting, you'll quickly realize he doesn't compliment anyone. You're not called Queen until he deems you strong enough to be one.

His name doesn't have anything funny behind it, I took the word Calamity and kept playing with it over and over- Kalamity, Kalamit, Kalimit, Kalimir, Kalymir.

If you're going off the concept that you're his match, then you'd certainly need to be either someone quite temperamental- Or someone who bottles anger up too much, yes.

The chances of you being some sort of criminal are also high, unfortunately. A lot of the time, whether they like it or not, demon lord matches are better off living with their respective demons, in a way.

Lingerie is pretty, sure, especially in reds and blacks, but there's nothing like seeing you covered in scant pelts and bones. Especially if the outfit is fashioned out of his own conquests. Gold is appreciated but not a necessity, he's not as crazy for jewelry as some of the others.

He gets plenty of work done still, but pauses to grope and coo are frequent. Kalymir enjoys denying himself and bottling everything he's feeling so he can fuck you until you pass out later. His hidden knot is a little painful, but you'll get used to it.

No one likes a quitter, anon.

Two more pieces for Art Fight 2022

Heath for ChickenPii (ArtFight)

Alwys for Kalamitous (ToyHouse)

[whatiwillsay]

I took the red rose maybe to mean that Taylor is building her own rose garden a la The Lucky One like she finally found her private life with no one around to tweet it. Cause the next line she has her “calamitous love” so idk I don’t think the red rose represents a person necessarily. Just things I think about late at night 🙃

but switching from gold back to red to end the album on me represents something huge

taylor was allllll about looking for that golden love, then she found it, shouted it from the rooftops, and now we’re talking about red again

THAT HAS TO MEAN SOMETHING

i do think kaylor is far more calamitous than some kaylor blogs like to explore or discuss...kalamitous even😂 so maybe the lakes is about karlie

i also like an analysis that the lakes is just about taylor escaping the pressures of society and running off with her music and not about a specific muse but her artistic process entirely

Koncertek

S végül 2018 koncertjei. Még dec 28-án is került a listára, ezért vártam eddig:

1:  Arcade Fire @ Bp. Sportaréna - Egyértelműen a legjobban felépített koncertkezdet Kolorádó fesztivállal és az előző esti Win98 DJ szettel. Ezzel együtt maga a koncert is nagyot ütött.

2:  King Gizzard & the Lizard Wizard @ Akvárium - Ez épp az ellenkezője, az utolsó pillanatban sikerült jegyet venni, de ezzel együtt nagyon sokáig azt hittem ezt fogom választani, mint legjobb koncertet. Őket is láttam egy jóval királyabb helyen Ravennában, de ez a koncert valamiért elsöprően jobb volt. Gyakorlatilag tökéletes setlist, és a Muddy Water dobja máig a fülemben van, de a koncert után kb. egy hónapig nem tudtam másra gondolni.

3:  The Cure @ Hyde Park - Ezért meg Angliába mentünk. 

4:  Father John Misty @ MüPa - Előzetesen azt hittem ez lesz az év koncertje, és bár baromi jó volt, valamiért furcsa volt ez a MüPában.

5:  Yo La Tengo @ A38 - Őket idén kétszer is láttam, és egyértelműen az A38-as koncert volt a jobb. Az első fele OK volt, de a schlagerekkel vettek meg igazán.

6:  Superorganism @ A38 - Viszonylag keveset tudtam a Superorganismről a koncert előtt, és elég rövidke is volt, de nagyon örülök, hogy már ilyen koncertek is vannak Budapesten.

7:  The National @ NOS Alive - Hát a National az National. Még mindig jók.

8: DJ Windows 98 @ Központ - Kb. 5 perccel azelőtt jött meg a hír, hogy ez lesz, hogy beléptünk a Kolorádó információmentes övezetébe. Nem is értünk oda az elejére, de teljesen zavarbaejtően hihetetlen volt az egész este New Orderestől, balhéstól, Stir It Upostól.

9:  Szabó Benedek és a Galaxisok @ Népsziget - Ez az egész esemény szintén baromi jó volt, de leginkább a régi Galaxis setlist egyik búcsúkoncertje tetszett.

10:  Peter Hook & the Light @ Dürer Kert - Olyan közel kerültünk ezekhez a dalokhoz, amennyire csak lehet egy ideig :(

11:  Mark Kozelek @ MüPa - Ennek sokkal jobban állt a MüPa, és tényleg még azt sem bántam, hogy nem Best ofozott, hanem mindenfélét játszott.

12:  Interpol @ Hyde Park - Nem hallgattam egy ideig Interpolt, de a koncert emlékeztetett, hogy mennyire is szeretem ezeket.

13:  Hinds & Kolorádó - Borzasztó hangosítás, kiváló szórakozás.

14:  Arctic Monkeys @ NOS Alive - Itt ütött be az új lemez.

15:  Roger Waters @ Bp. Sportaréna - Sosem gondoltam volna, hogy a Dogs-ot élőben fogom hallani, főleg úgy, hogy földrajzilag pont itt, a 75-ös trolin hergeltem vele magam gimiben.

16:  Queens of the Stone Age @ NOS Alive - Josh Homme megpróbálta ledönteni a hangfalakat, de ez nem sikerült neki. 

17:  Future Islands @ NOS Alive - Sam Herring olyan hasoncsúszást mutatott be, amit füvön is nehéz lenne kivitelezni.

18:  Middlemist Red @ Kolorádó - Ezzel az évvel is bebetonozta magát a Middlemist Red, mint az egyik legjobb magyar zenekar. A Kolorádón volt a legnagyobb mászás.

19:  The Sonics @ A38 - Strykh...strichin... nehéz szó.

20:  Wolf Alice @ NOS Alive - Na ez ütött ghecc.

21:  The Twilight Sad @ Hyde Park - Nappal ez nagyon furcsa volt, de belefért.

22:  Wolf People @ Vanishing Point - Kellett neki adni egy kis időt, de helyenként teljesen magával ragadó volt.

23:  The Wytches @  Vanishing Point - Üvöltözés

24:  Dope Calypso @ Akvárium - Nagyon jót tett a koncertnek a Váci Református Eklézsia Kalamits János lánykarának közreműködése, de az új tagok és jelmezek is ütöttek. 

25:  Jessica 93 @ Auróra - [égbe köp, alááll]

26:  Népi Papa és a Haverok @ Kuplung - Tavaly is volt

27:  Khalid @ NOS Alive - páré

28:  NIN @ NOS Alive - Ez a koncert fekete fehér volt.

29:  Bryan Ferry @ NOS Alive - Itt egy ilyen öregebb arc énekelt esztrádműsort.

30: Grouper @ Trafó - Ezen a koncerten meg ott voltam.
