GUBAT BANWA: THE RAJANATE OF GATUSAN
WARRIORS. POETS. SPIRITUALISTS. The Hundred Island Rajanate—a league of allied polities all pledging to PONONG RAJA (Head King) BATARA AMBASI as their leader. Those that have settled in communities tremble when they near, their agung resounding and their war drums reverberating. SEIZE HEAVEN’S THUNDERCLAPS: GATUSAN!
The Gatusan Rajanate is inspired by Hindu-Buddhist Maritime Kingdoms of Southeast Asia (Srivijaya, Majapahit, Singhasari, Champa), as well as the ancient Pintados that still cling to life to this day.
This includes the raiding cultures of pre-colonial Sugbu (ruled by Raja Humabon), Bo-ol, Buglas, Opon, Samar, Leyte, Butuan, and much more. Clad in heavy bahag and cuirasses (sometimes elephant hide, other times shark skin, often hardwood), wielding aggressive kalasag and spears (bangkaw), kings wield grand kampilans and sail on sea-splitting warships (karakoa) and merchant ships to scour the seas!
They are a people of ritual and signs—an azure bird flying across their path in the wrong direction is a bad omen. Before going on raids, they perform divinations and offerings to their gods. Their kings, their rajas, exude charisma, filled with spiritual power, emblazoned with it through their tattoos, which signify their achievements are true. Many Kings are feared like gods—many kings have access to superior occult power.
The greatest polity, the center of mandala power, Kangdaya, is pierced through with influences from outside the Sword Isles and from the far Sword Isles. They have palaces and grand stupas, they have a thousand buddhas and gods that they worship, localized from foreign merchants.
They worship Jamiyun Kulisa the great Sky God, and Rajaraya Pintas the Ancestor, though they have an extensive pantheon of their own, with gods so numerous it would be sacrilegious to name them all in a list.
Their religion is skewered with ritual—they mummify and fumigate their dead in an act of worship, they perform long rituals to accrue merit and fortune so that their days are better, praying to both gods and saints—they’re the same in power and intercession, after all.
Gatusan Disciplines tend to be focused on dealing damage and opening up enemies. To that end, here are the five martial Disciplines you can learn and take on as Kadungganan in the Core Rulebook!
BUWAYA LANCER. The grand sentinels of the ancestor god, who have the ability to evolve their crocodile mounts into grand makara! Mechanically they are focused on creating a “Lair”—everything adjacent to them cannot escape. Their techniques let you carry another across the battlefield, activate an opportunity attack stance, perform a violent death roll, and destroy the land around you.
KAWAL. The quintessential sentinel. They have the ability to rush after an ally that moves while adjacent to them, and they get access to an opportunity attack. Both Buwaya Lancers and Kawal get to Opportunity Attack, exemplifying the raiding Violence of Gatusan. Their Techniques focus on building Block, generating Taunt, taking on vigilant stances, and destroying things with great hammers.
MANGANGAYAW. The quintessential raider that wants to attack, attack attack. They are stance dancers and can take on a powerful Stance that augments their attacks, and can ignore Combo Breaker when flanking a fighter. Their techniques let them unleash multiple attacks, counter attack, increase their damage, and store Hits.
SWORD POET. Tricky sentinels that intermingle sword and song together to confuse enemies and taunt them with hilarious sung poetry. Their Techniques involve them singing grand war songs: healing allies, confusing and debilitating enemies, and even give up a beat to manipulate the Rhythm!
WARRIOR BALYAN. Quintessential Mediums who dance with stances (reflecting their trance state when possessed by the gods) as well as channel gods into the battlefield, letting them possess allies so they may partake in xenoglossy. Their techniques let them purify allies, augment their allies’ attacks, change the weather, and channeling the star goddess of dawn.
That’s just a small bite of what we have in store for you! Back us now and help us reach our full potential!

Ojamandala
Huh, who knew the Ojama bros were Buddhists? There's a lot of mandala symbolism here that I'm not equipped to describe or explain (except for the outer rings of fire, which represent wisdom), but if you look at traditional Buddhist mandalas, you'll see a lot of shared characteristics between them and this art. It's genuinely a neat and unique concept for this archetype, to the point that I was legitimately surprised when I pulled this card up. There's heavy sun symbolism in this as well, some obvious and some not so obvious (the red sunburst), and I'm not sure whether it's simply an extension of the wisdom representation or if they mean something else. It could simply be symbolic of the fact that these Ojama boys brighten everyone's day! I think the only really odd detail is the TV static background they chose to use for this card. It does create a negative space contrast with the rest of the art, so that everything else really pops, but it's weird if you focus on it too much.
Rating: 7/10

Hello! Sorry for the previous prompt, I got a little excited and forgot about the extension u.u Here's a different one. No pressure tho, please take your time n.n✨
It's Obsession verse (because I love it so so much): Someone carelessly insults one of them —it can be Stephen or Tony, whichever you prefer— and has to deal with the consequences of said action
Hope you're doing well, have a nice day n.n ✨🪐
I’m so sorry it took me so long to answer this one! For other people’s context, this person sent a prompt that was a little too long and I invited them to send a new one; I had intended to jump it over the queue since the original prompt was in queue, but… life happened. *wry*
I hope this feels sufficiently like Obsession 'Verse! It's a little different in that it takes place outside of the context of their relationship still developing, but it is intended to be those versions of the characters.
Notice to folks who might be new: Obsession 'Verse is a darker version of IronStrange in which the two are (by a normal person's estimation) dangerously obsessed with each other. But it works for them.
-
The model—a man, someone Tony vaguely recognizes from his pre-Iron Man days—looks Stephen up and down and sniffs. “Don’t let him,” Tony, the man means, “fool you into thinking there’s something special about you. Everyone had a piece of him back in the day.” The model cuts his gaze over to Tony and sneers. “It wasn’t even a particularly good piece.”
Stephen stares at the man, his expression so icy that Tony slips an arm around him, as if that could ever be enough to hold Stephen back. Tony doesn’t care about this asshole, but they are in public: if Stephen smites him the PR is going to be a nightmare. And, well, no one deserves to die for a mean comment.
Suddenly, Stephen smiles, though it doesn’t warm his expression one bit. He raises a hand and a mandala blooms. With a flick, it sails toward the model and strikes him right in the chest, where it glows for a moment before sinking into him. “That’ll last until you learn to be kinder to your lovers,” Stephen says coolly.
Tony quickly steers them away before the situation can escalate. “Do I want to know what you did to him?” he hisses.
Stephen smirks. “Let’s just say that tonight he’s going to find something rather different in his pants than he expects. And again tomorrow. And again, until he’s learned his lesson.”
Maybe it’s mean, but Tony can’t help laughing.

After combing through a ton of posts on Instagram and Pinterest, this is probably my first mandala with the Mahabharata as its inspiration. How? You ask, well, here is an explanation of the above attempt.
Character explored: Draupadi
I've always associated two women in the Mahabharata being associated with the lotus, one is Satyavati, and, the other is Draupadi. I had initially planned to colour the lotus in shades of red, yellow, and orange, but, then I chanced upon this little factoid in Bibek Debroy's translation of the Epic (which, I'm given to understand, is pretty close to "canon" provided the bibliography he provides in the introduction). He says, that she smelt of "blue lotuses" when she emerged from the fire, and hence the blue. So, while the yellow, red (speckles) and orange stand for the fire, which sired her, the blue, stands for her aura.
And of course, the colours in the paisley are just my imagination of an extension of her being. I've always imagined The Panchala Princess to be vibrant and exuberant in all her happiness (yeah, yeah, I know I've gone overboard with the colours).
And yeah, red and pink are my favourites.

some highlights of magical combat in Standard Candles:
frontline combat is saturated with drones and marked by extensive use of elaborate rituals that can be done on the fly thanks to drone assistance and high-performance cyberware. modern artificial muscles, personal flight tech and cyberware cooling rigs gushing hot air and steam allow soldiers to think and move at high speed, bounce from wall to wall with delicate choreography, hover in the air, and sustain complicated and difficult poses; drones can quickly position magical equipment, spray paint sigils and arcane graffiti and weave mandalas, project light and sound and other sensory data, etc.
much of magic gains power from thoughts, behaviors, and particular forms of social relationship. any given environment and gathering of beings, from chatrooms to civilizations, gives power to particular forms of magic. when the ambient bustle of society isn't enough, thoughts and behaviors can be engineered by various means. modern magitech makes extensive use of AI to automate banal rituals, from chatbots and avatars in cyberspace to physically mobile drones, but there are often times when unconscious algorithms won't cut it. so there is also a flourishing world of in-depth social engineering - ranging from subtle manipulations embedded in daily life to VR sims, industrial parks and entire Truman Show-esque planned communities explicitly built around simulating alternate, (often) uncanny forms of society.
such nodes of refined ritual behavior and dedication can be powerful boons to battlefield mages, so the military operates a suite of battlefield social engineering hardware from APCs full of personnel wired into VR to controlled environment carriers: mobile platforms dedicated to supporting a planned community acting out its own alternate reality in isolation from the real world. equipped with an extensive suite of EM shielding, shock absorbers and acoustic muffling, quiet cooling systems and even its own gravity manipulation pods.

Update 4! So I ended up finishing two today! I could've finished the 3rd one also but... Let's be honest, I slept late, woke up super late and had a kinda busy day so... yeah. Will finish the third one tomorrow! But for now, (drawings under the cut)
Orym Mandala
It starts with the "Big Moon, Little Moon" in the middle cuz I see it as his catalyst to who he is today. And well, It is a major part of him man! I just had to!
If the thing right around it looks like a sun, well, coincidence but around it is the swords cuz he's a fighter and guard (could've done the shield but I had to choose and the swords fit better, at least for me)
Finally ending with the flowers because I love love love the druidcraft, let's be honest with that and finally the vines as a nod to Melora (and maybe his deal with Nana Morri because I envision the Hex to be a mix of flowers and vines)
2. FCG Mandala
Onto FCG, the centre is the Changebringer's coin, not because it is a catalyst (technically it is a catalyst to his final moments I suppose because he used it for the guiding bolt) but I do suppose it is a major part of their character growth, followed by the beams of the explosion.
On top of it are the "blades of grass" (his other catalyst) and the cross or plus sign (however you view it) as a sign that he was the cleric and always willing to help people while having a positive attitude.
Inside the cross is a circle, giving a nod to Chetney's emotion wheel (Which I will colour when I have the chance to)
And finally, the outer ring gives a nod to the buzzsaw attachment (and by extension his other attachments he got from the other bots)
Now I am off to bed cuz I need to wake up early to catch the episode!!!
#critical role#messy thots#cr fanart#cr mandalas#mandalas#finish the ink challenge#help me with my image descriptions?#honestly#these were my easiest to come up ideas for#Will colour it in with pencils someday

The Journey of The Tarot Haiku
I: The Magician - Resources
I used a variety of tools and resources in creating the book, so I thought I would share the most important ones.
At one point I purchased Scrivener because I heard good things about it, and initially I was planning to use it to create the book, only to discover that it didn't support the type of layout I wanted to design. I was stubborn, however, and decided to use it anyway because the way you can create folders and pages in it really appealed to the creature in me that wanted to squirrel away the poems like nuts for the winter. I also used it to manually keep track of my progress, and I still love opening it to go through all the folders.
To make sure the syllable count was accurate, I used this Syllable Counter to double check as I was typing down the poems. I tried others, but some of them were inconsistent, and this one was really easy to use!
I used to draw extensively and did digital art, and in the course of looking for software, I purchased Clip Studio Paint, which can be used for digital art as well as designing printable volumes like comics and zines. I was first and foremost going to concentrate on the Tarot cards in my poetry project, but eventually decided to supplement them with more poems explaining the fundamentals of reading and understanding the Tarot, so the next step was to create some digital illustrations to accompany those. I ended up learning about vector art because I wanted to create crisp images that could be resized if needed, and then went on to design the original manuscript using CSP. For the longest time I thought I would be using that for publication, but it did not have a working Table of Contents and I worried that any reformatting might take it apart, so I didn't use the manuscript, just the digital illustrations I made.
The Rider-Waite Tarot Deck is a registered trademark of U.S. Games Systems, Inc., but the illustrations are technically public domain, so you can use them for different projects and products. Because I wanted to feature the cards in my book but I only had access to a Hungarian language version of the deck (and so my scans would have shown Hungarian text), I purchased a set of high quality scans of the original Rider-Waite Tarot from ElementalEmpress on Etsy. I first used these in my project proposal and later in the manuscript.
In some of my posts, you might have noticed a Tower mandala watermark. I commissioned the design from Mixtichin - check out their Square Space or their Ko-fi if you want cool mandala designs! (The holofoil effect was my doing.)
I ultimately decided to self-publish by signing up to Kindle Direct Publishing, and there I downloaded Kindle Create in order to prepare my manuscript for publishing. This was the point where I realized that my original manuscript created in CSP might not survive a reformatting and the non-functional Table of Contents would be irritating, so I fired up Microsoft Word and recreated the entire manuscript from scratch. Thankfully I figured out how to do upside down text in it, which is how the ebook retains the original ergodic layout. I had to convert it to PDF using the built-in conversion function because Kindle Create is very fickle and will not sometimes recognize completely legitimate DOCX files, but that turned out to be for the best because I had an image heavy layout and could thus use the Print Replica option. Kindle Create is kind of vital for KDP projects because it will take care of things like borders, trim, bleed, etc. and when I got the hang of it, submitting the paperback and hardcover became much easier.
Last but not least, I used this website to convert PNG to PDF because KDP asked for the cover to be submitted as a PDF, but whenever I tried to open the PNG and use the convert to PDF option in the menu, it came out the wrong size. Once I converted it using the above linked site, however, the size was perfect and I could proceed with publication!
This is all I could think of for this post - see you next time!
Buy the ebook
Buy the paperback
Buy the hardcover

KARSEY KONGTRUL (The 2nd Jamgon
Kongtrul)
... confiding in Tulku Urgen:
"What I am about to say is straight and honest talk," he (Karsey Kongtrul) began. "The 15th Karmapa, Khakyab Dorie, was the one who pointed out the nature of my mind.
He told me to refrain from extensive study: he said that although there are many important streams of teachings kept alive in eastern Tibet, as he put it, 'You have to uphold the teachings of the ultimate transmission. Therefore, as your main practice, simply sustain the continuity of the natural state that I have shown you - don't try to be a great scholar.' That is the command my father, the Karmapa, gave me. So except for grammar and spelling I haven't studied much.
Nevertheless, from training in the natural state, I have reached a level where the entire valley of Tsurphu appears as the mandala of Chakrasamvara and with each passing day conceptual thoughts are fewer and farther between.
Now there is only one problem left: I still lose presence of mind in the moment of falling asleep. It lasts no more than a couple of seconds, but I am sorry to admit I do become unaware.
Apart from that, this mind no longer gets distracted at any time, day or night. The view is wide open and continuous, and there is no parting from it. I'm telling you this in private; until today I haven't mentioned it to anyone else. I am now confident that I can die at any moment and not be in trouble."
~ Tulku Urgyen Rinpoche
From: "Blazing Splendor"

if yjh is regression, mandala’s guardian is reincarnation and jhy is also meant to be seen as part of this ‘protagonist trio’, wouldn’t she be ‘returnee’?
she went to the demon realm; she came back from the demon realm. when kdj returned from the altered 1863rd worldline he also became a returnee, and the first thing he had to do was communicate with his companions that he’s returned through a star-stream enforced communication barrier.
that situation was far more artificial, but i think some comparisons can be made on a thematic level too! when a person leaves the world as you perceive and understand it, and then they return, inevitably changed…. it’s already a struggle writing on that wall the first time, but it’s easier still when you’ve never done it before. but now you have to continue writing after some absence, so how do you reconcile those changes? being changed by a world that is not familiar to you, only to return and find that the world you came from has become unfamiliar as well…
lee sookyung was not the person kdj once knew, the same way biyoo was not yjh’s 41st sys, the same way epilogue!hsy and epilogue!yjh were not [incarnation] kim dokja’s companions when they had to graffiti on the fourth wall to help him out.
the same way 1864!jhy was no longer wos!jhy who kdj requested into existence too, isn’t it?
the answer to all of these, when it comes down to it… is to keep writing on the wall :’) over and over until your message reaches them. mayhaps that’s the gist of being a returnee, in the end.
(and that’s my COMPLETED essay to this 👍👍👍 also, i was very flustered when i saw your response to my previous anon ask with the ‘wos characters each embody a message for kdj!’ i’m very glad you liked the suggestion though :’D)
ANON ANON HI YOU'RE BACK OMG HI *TWIRLS HAIR*
*slaps hand against thigh* fuck you're right she is returnee holy crap i forgot about that whole concept also isn't it neat that she's a returnee and kdj's white coat is the standard returnee uniform and isn't it neat that jang hayoung is the character that kdj was most directly involved in creating and his unending guilt in that ahahahaha like look at this dumb fool:
"Jang Hayoung, who was born into this world because of my greed, lived a life unrelated to me."
god i love him so much, he cares so deeply for all his kids in his fucked up little way.
okay okay so kdj is someone who kinda puts others into genres and classification. this person is the heroine, this person's genre is different, this is realism. it's a part of his coping mechanism and dissociation ala the fourth wall which made him very resigned to his own tragedy and unhappiness for a long time which is why he doesn't really cope well with changes. but through the course of the novel, he is forced to not only acknowledge but also understand change and it is particularly important in the industrial arc where he meets jang hayoung.
this is the basis of their wall writing talk as an extension of his revelation that adult or child, everybody changes. and he is horribly confused by it. confused by what he should do when the world and people around him changes constantly but there is this wall, this impossible wall that doesn't allow anyone to ever truly understand or know each other as we all change again and again as a natural occurance of living.
and jang hayoung, the returnee, his child, the one who he brought into this world more than any other, she points out straight away what he and every reader needs to do:
"Everyone has a wall and communication is impossible… that's obvious." I couldn't believe the friendly Jang Hayoung thought so. It was a bit surprising. Then Jang Hayoung continued, "However, we still have to talk. Even if there is a huge wall, there is a person behind that wall."
talk. we have to try and try again. always. even in the face of vast wall we keep between ourselves, continue to reach out.
Even if we can't reach each other, even if we can't meet each other, we should continue to pound away on each other's walls.
I think an important point is that it isn't about your messaging reaching the other person. because no matter how hard or how much we want it to, sometimes the message can never be sent, can never unchange the past, can never undo things. sometimes no matter how desperately we continue to write on the wall, that doesn't mean it will ever be read by the other person but that doesn't mean the act in itself is useless. because:
"It is just important that you left it." "The other party won't know so why?" "At least the wall has changed." I was speechless for a moment. Jang Hayoung spoke in a resolute voice. "Then one day, someone might read it."
because at the very least the wall has been changed. and you have returned differently. at least you have grown ever more couragous and strong. grown and returned with the strength to continue to live.
#orv spoiler#orv analysis#also yknow who else is a returnee?#the entire kimcom after 1865th turn!!!#ooooOooOoOOoo#long post#also so fycking sorry that this took so long to reply to#as you can see i went a little crazy with the analysis whoops#thank you so much for sending me this#its so beautiful i'm going to cry

Embracing Dharma Essence amidst Lunar New Year Celebrations
As the dazzling lanterns light up the landscape
and the vibrant energy of Lunar New Year sweeps in, it's not just about lively parades and sumptuous feasts. Every beginning is an opportunity to embark on a new chapter with a profound sense of purpose and hope. Infusing Dharma into your celebrations can provide you opportunities to cultivate merit and wisdom, making your Chinese New Year celebrations more fulfilling and meaningful.
Here are some aspects you can consider when approaching the new year:
Cleaning as a Form of Purification Before Chinese New Year, people spring clean their homes and offices to sweep away past negativities and to usher in auspicious new conditions for the new year. Our homes and living spaces are also a mandala for us to take care of. Buddha has taught that “cleaning our places of practice creates the cause for a clear mind in oneself”. Hence, cleaning these places are a great way of purification, to have a clear mind, and to accumulate merits.
Illuminate the Year with Light To usher in the new year with positivity, one can engage in the practice of making light offerings. This can take the form of butter lamps, vibrant lanterns, and other lights of veneration in the temple. By illuminating the world with lights, it signifies the dispelling of darkness of ignorance and the dawning of wisdom and hope.
Engage in Merit-making Activities Merit-making activities play a crucial role in celebrating Chinese New Year with meaning. Chinese New Year has many auspicious days such as Maitreya Buddha’s birthday, Lord Indra’s birthday, and Lantern Festival. There will be extensive prayers and offerings at the temple on these days. Take this opportunity to create abundant merits on these auspicious days by attending the Sutra recitations or making offerings to Buddha.
Practising Generosity and Kindness Chinese New Year presents a great opportunity to practice generosity and kindness for others. This can be expressed through the tradition of giving ang paos (red packets), gifts, or even a simple smile and greeting to others. Don’t underestimate the power of saying simple greetings like “Gong Xi Fa Cai” to someone. Wishing others and expressing good fortune, health, and happiness is a way to practice generosity and kindness too!
Cultivating a New Mindset Fostering a new mindset is crucial as attitudes, beliefs, and mindsets are akin to seeds planted in our minds. As the new year unfolds, individuals are encouraged to ask themselves, "What kind of seeds have I planted in my mind?" and “What kind of new seeds do I want to plant for this next year?”. The answer can come from personal reflections, guidance from our Guru, or from attending Dharma teachings. To have inspiration for how to cultivate this new mindset, do attend our first Dharma teaching of Chinese New Year called, “The Heart of Rejoicing” at the temple on the sixth day of Chinese New Year!
Making Virtuous Aspirations Chinese New Year is a time when people make wishes for the new year at the temple. Firstly, planning and setting goals for the new year will help one to have clarity in the aspirations that we seek for in the upcoming year. Secondly, seeking divine help and support for these plans to actualise in the future is vital for our aspirations to be successful. Set virtuous motivations that these aspirations will benefit self and others. This aligns your being with Buddha’s heart, bolstering the connection that we have with Buddha in actualising these wishes.
Grateful and Rejoicing Heart Have gratitude for what we have and rejoice for the successes of other people. Practice gratitude for having survived the past year and being alive in this present day for Chinese New Year. The various festivities and gatherings that we have is something that we can be grateful for. Seeing different people’s successes is also having a rejoicing heart and being happy for others.
Offering of the Senses During Chinese New Year, there will be a lot of celebratory performances, such as the lion dance, as well as many gatherings with an abundance of delicious food and beautiful decorations. One can offer these sights of beauty, festivity, and delectable tastes to Buddha. By offering our physical senses, this will provide an antidote to our attachment to these sense pleasures. Offering these sensorial things are also a great way to accumulate merits in our daily lives. We also hope that by offering these senses, all beings will also have the same causes for having the same happiness and abundance, and to have a joyful heart.
Acts of Compassion and Kindness Incorporating acts of compassion aligns closely with the principles of Dharma. How would you like to expand your capacity to give? During the Chinese New Year, extend kindness to others through charitable deeds, volunteering, or even simple acts of generosity. Embrace the opportunity to make a positive impact on the lives of those around you, fostering a sense of interconnectedness and compassion.
As Chinese New Year comes, the celebration takes on a deeper and more transformative dimension when infused with dharma essence. By incorporating spiritual practices, individuals can embark on a journey of auspiciousness and joy, creating a harmonious start to the Year of the Dragon.
If you are looking for meaningful activities, Thekchen Choling is a place that welcomes individuals seeking to participate in prayers and courses to deepen your spiritual life. May this Lunar New Year be filled with light, wisdom, and the boundless potential for positive transformation!
Check out our Chinese New Year festivities here.
