Thanks for the tags today! @martsonmars @hushed-chorus @artsyunderstudy @tea-brigade @fatalfangirl @palimpsessed

I’ve been deep in my creative brain thoughts. Not all the creativity has been fandom based which is fun too! All this to say, I’m feeling incredibly fulfilled creatively at the moment. It’s a nice feeling :-)

I signed up for COBB! While I’ve had this certain idea since October, all the discussion on the discord last night prompted me to draft a little. Nevertheless, literally all of it would give away the premise so here are two sentences with heavy redaction:

Everyone loves a good Cinderella story. Well, until Cinderella [REDACTED] during [REDACTED] [REDACTED] at [REDACTED] [REDACTED].

Wasn’t that fun!? Believe me, any other excerpt would be even more [REDACTED]… 

Thank you for all the love on Escape to Space! Y’all treat a girl too well! If you read Chapter 2 within the hour I posted it, go back because I definitely added more. I’m nothing if not a chronically irresponsible post-posting editor. I’ve been obsessively listening to the entirety of the Muse album Black Holes and Revelations for spacey vibes I cannot be held responsible if its influence bleeds into my writing. (*cough* Starlight *cough*)

I shall now grant you this sexy little dialogue outline for good behavior:

“Kiss me.” "What? "Kiss me right now." "Is this really the time?" "YES!" "Oh shit, okay. Yeah, yeah, so..." (action ensues) "Fuck. Sorry." "Well don't stop."

I aimed to get this post out earlier in the day as to not tag people too late, and then I proceeded to not do that. So, if I tag you and you don’t want to do it (or I've missed your post today)…then don’t lmao!

I gave Korinne a much needed redesign!

I'll probably be going through all of the Mythirian guard and giving them new outfits eventually. Rather pleased with how this turned out.

For those curious, she's an echidna/pangolin/lizard hybrid of sorts.

Erica Goes to a Bar

Outside the bar, people mingled in clusters, bodies pressed against bodies pressed against walls. Erica didn’t spare any of them a glance. They certainly didn’t spare one for her. None of them were the body she was looking for, anyway. It wasn’t worth her time to linger. Warmth spilled out the newly opened door into the cold night, like a trapped beast pressing against its constraints. Erica gagged at the stench of it, sweat and booze and sex mingling in a cocktail she had never found appealing. She choked on the heat of too many bodies in a packed space, swallowed down the bile rising in her throat, and forced her way through the doorway. Her heels stuck to the floor. She was already sweating. Skin brushed against skin and she recoiled away from it, crashing into more skin stretched across too sharp bone. Her head spun. From the heat? The physical contact? Or was there something in the air, one of the many psychedelics Festus loved to play with? She wasn’t in the mood to be toyed with. When she finally reached the back wall, she sagged against the bar. The stone was cool against her forehead, a balm against her burning skin, her burning blood. She hated this place. The Hortus Hedera, the Ivy Garden, filled with perfectly pruned flowers. Only the best were allowed to bloom, and only the most toxic flourished. “Why don’t you join the Garden?” Erica had asked Korinne once. “It would get you out of this palace. Maybe you could flee the island altogether. I’m sure they have the connections.” Korinne had rolled her eyes. “They offered,” she mouthed. “I turned them down.” “Why?” She had hesitated for a moment, panic flashing in her eyes. One hand drifted to the charms in her hair, and Erica understood. Myra. “Every drop of blood I’ve spilled is a prayer,” Korinne finally explained after an extended silence. “Money desecrates the ritual.” Erica could understand that, even if she didn’t subscribe to the same belief—her father didn’t consider his bloodshed to be anything more than what it was—but it made her job much harder without an inside connection. If anything, Korinne was a reason for them not to help her. Why would they actively help the competition?

So, the very first product to bear the Forgotten Realms logo was Douglas Niles’ novel Darkwalker on Moonshae (1987), but that book was not conceived as about the Forgotten Realms at all. Instead it reflected with Niles’ own world or one under development at TSR’s UK division (or some combination of the two); the half-finished novel was stranded when TSR UK was shuttered.

Meanwhile, Greenwood’s Moonshae Isles was this remote, rather sleepy archipelago (it sounds sort of like a combination of Harn and Earthsea, which I must say is rather appealing). It was deemed too large and too empty for the public-facing campaign setting, so it was removed and replaced with Nile’s Celtic-themed realm. I don’t know if it is amusing or aggravating or what, but Greenwood always avoided bringing in obvious real-world cultures into his home Realms, so it is fairly ironic that the first major TSR addition was the plopping of a British-shaped island onto the map.

The book is almost entirely lore. History, geography, sociology, important people, groups, factions and so on. Very little in terms of mechanics. I honestly can’t quite say why I feel like this one is more usable as a game sourcebook than FR1, but I feel like it is, even with less attribute block and zero explicit adventure hooks.

Couple other interesting things. First, this is the second generic world that Niles created that wound up bolted onto the Realms. The first was the Bloodstone Lands. And, he also bolted someone else onto the Moonshaes — Aaron Allston’s Korinn Archipelago is here, making N4: Treasure Hunt a retroactive Forgotten Realms adventure.

Tim Hildebrandt cover art, which I find somewhat surprising. I think this is one of maybe three contributions to the visual history of D&D. It’s quite tranquil. Interiors by the great George Barr. I am really unused to this idea of having really good illustrations in a FR sourcebook. That is definitely something that dropped off in the ’90s.

ᒥ🎲ᒧ—         "Its not often we get new faces in Korinn, 'specially pretty ones like yours, mate." Edward smirks, reaching for his drink as he flirts with this Pirate. Unfortunately, as he goes to grab his drink he mistakenly knocks it over. "Fuck!" He groans, having spilled the mead all into his lap.

The older pirate had got his attention and he stopped beside the table briefly to give him a once over with eyes as blue as the sea. Being so attractive he made the poor man spills his drink. Killian snickered at the clumsiness. "I can tell. You're the fifth one to try and I haven't even made it to a table yet." Killian with a shake of his head. He knew he was very good looking, but either the pirates here were particularly horny or the pickings were slim with attractive people to screw around with.

"That drink may be on you but I'll cover your next one, mate." Killian said sweetly with a wink and moved on towards the back. His crew cleared a table for him, making the people sitting there get up without causing a scene and claimed the table. The young captain and two others sat down, the first mate and quartermaster. One taking out cards to start dealing with the rest of the crew standing around the table making sure no one bothered their captain while others went to the bar to order everyone's drinks. Which included a replacement mead for Ed that was brought over to him.

It didn't seem like the new pirate was interested in socializing much, having come to drink and hang out with his own crew. Though his gaze wandered back to Edward as if considering giving the man a chance. But his attention was drawn to his own drink arriving and switched his focus on that and the casual card game.

thinking of actually breaking the promise written in my url and actually killing off one of my wardens 😔😔😔

it's about my Aeducan, Portia. she already dies in her canon worldstate, since she refuses Morrigan's offer, but she was supposed to live in my all-my-wardens-in-one worldstate, but I'm so used to her storyline finishing at the end of origins, and it just doesn't sit right, I feel almost like I'm betraying her character by making her live?

So I think she's actually going to die at her Warden joining (it happens just before the archdemon fight in my multiple-wardens worldstate, since only my Mahariel (Mela) was actually conscripted by Duncan at the beginning of the game, the other "origins" joined the adventure later on by different means. So, yeah, once they meet Riordan they decide to all join, despite the danger. Each one sort of has their own reasons, but Portia does it mainly because she honestly believes that's the only option she has left if she wishes to live in dignity. She lost everything but she can still be worthy of Orzammar if she stands by its values. Killing darkspawn, devoting her life to it, that's her calling now.

And she met people she truly learned to care about, and she bonded with Brosca (Korinn) like with a sister she never had, and learned to see her place as (former) princess of Orzammar in a whole new light, and she fell in love with Leliana and and and... but she needs it, she needs it to make things right, and she's determined, almost happy, she's where she's supposed to be.

And she dies.

While her best friends make it, and have to live on.

Cousland (Ilsramel), who agreed to the joining, but by the Maker, he didn't want to, he was so scared. He was so happy to be alive, in love, so unwilling to lose any of this, to risk it, after losing so much already. But he drinks from the cup, because he's even more scared of being left alone, and he makes it, and relief and joy turn immediately into cold stone guilt, knowing he made it, but Aeducan didn't. And he'll carry this weight all the rest of his life. He lived, so he must carry her dream too now.

And Brosca (Korinn), after the Battle of Denerim, coming back to Orzammar. And she never cared about politics or it all, not even much about the Casteless, because that's just too big and useless brainfarts to lose time on when she needed to bring food to the table. But now she gets it. Now it's their people, their story, their legacy. And she'll make it better, she'll maker Aeducan proud, and, closer to the Stone like that, she can almost feel her by her side.
