Beastmaster (1982) - Dar's Village Attacked

Working in the fields, Dar (Marc Singer) sees his village's enemy, the Juns, approaching for an attack. He and his friends race to defend their people, but the Juns overwhelm them. Dar fights the Juns, but is ultimately overwhelmed & knocked out during the battle. GIFs made from the 4K UHD release of Beastmaster. I've reduced some of the heavy grain present in the print using Topaz AI. GIFs from Beastmaster, Peplum & Superhero content also on my heroperil.tumblr.com page.

Philosophy and media question, what is your favorite self sacrifice in fiction and why?

Probably Gundham Tanaka from Super Danganronpa 2: Goodbye Despair.

There are a lot of good moments in these games that could technically count as self-sacrifice, but this one takes the cake in my opinion.

Gundham Tanaka is Class 77’s SUPREEEME OVERLORD OF IIIICE- I mean, Ultimate Breeder. (Though Beastmaster would be a more appropriate name if you ask me.)

We don’t know all that much about him, but it’s implied that he had a pretty awful childhood that eventually lead him to surrounding himself by animals that lacked the intelligence to be able to hurt him the same way that humans could.

By the time we meet him in-game, he has the speech pattern of of a demon overlord from a shitty anime and never breaks character once, he’s succeeded at proliferating an endangered species, and he can supposedly talk to animals (which, given both the man and the franchise we’re talking about, might be true). Armed with his Four Dark Devas of Destruction (actually just four hamsters), he is an unstoppable force.

Then, Chapter 4 rolls along. The gimmick this time is a truly evil one on Monokuma’s part: he’s locked our heroes (and Nagito) in a funhouse and won’t let them leave, or get any food, until someone gets killed. And he’s pulling out all the stops to make sure it’s as unpleasant as possible as they all slowly starve, resigned to their fate.

Then a murder happens, followed by a Class Trial, and Gundham is found guilty.

That’s right: out of all the people who chose to sacrifice himself for this group, it was the Ultimate Edgelord. And his reasoning? Seeing all these people slowly waiting to die pissed him off so much he decided to murder someone, then sacrifice himself, just so they would get back off their fucking asses and live a little.

Okay, that last part’s not as serious as it should be, so let me continue: he proceeds to delve into a very long, very passionate speech about how killing someone so the rest could live was a better alternative to them all slowly starving in the Funhouse, including some absolute BANGER lines such as:

“What’s the point of living if you’re just waiting until you finally die?!”

Him going out of his way to specifically murder the one person who he knew was the most likely to agree with what he was doing is also badass, but the main point is just… awesome. Like, yes, do not give up on life. Always do what it takes to survive, no matter the cost, because that’s what wild fucking animals like you and me do best.

And then he dies doing what he loves: getting trampled by a buffalo.

What a legend.

[lerudan]

I'm waiting for tests to run, and my brain came up with something even worse than Morlund's Montgolfiere.

Now, I don't think the three would leave Hidden Ember, but imagine, for a second here.

Avad wants to repurpose the Sun-Rings. Not every Sun-Ring can become a memorial. And the Carja populace is missing their entertainment. But how do you do entertainment without killing people? So he sends out messages to get ideas. And Morlund, Abadund and Stemmur come up with a parcour. Something between Ultimate Beastmaster and Takeshi's Castle (narrated by Stemmur, of course).

Maybe in the Sunring at Sunfall? Anyway. Shortly before construction is done, Aloy comes along on her way back east, and he asks her to test-run things, because, of course he does, and she does it. And it's not trivial. But she manages it. (maybe even in a timed manner? would be quite a fun side-activity like the machine races).

And Abadund instantly realized what a great marketing opportunity this is, because now the challenge is not only "can you manage the parcour", but also: "Can you best the Saviour".

Things get a little difficult, when the first Nora encounter this thing, because, that's just a version of the proving. Without the Grazer Hunt at the start. Why would anyone not manage that. And the Carja remember why there were so many scary stories about the savages of the east.

i love getting texts from my best friend. this could be literally anything

[cyclament]

Baxter

2018

First drawing I ever did of this guy. The start of it all.

Drew this with ultimate beastmaster playing in the background 💪😤

Pen on paper

[teecupangel]

Have you seen the show Ultimate Beastmaster? Imagine if the assassins tried that thinking no one is looking and everyone is just staring at them shocked because they did the whole course flawlessly

“Okay, anyone wants to tell me how this catastrophe happened?” Bill asked thru gritted teeth as he rubbed the bridge of his nose.

“Well, a few millennias ago, a race of powerful-”

“I am not talking about the Solar Flare and you know it!” Bill glared at his only son who had been a quiet obedient kid…

Until he became friends with the three banes of Bill’s existence…

The other three narrowed their eyes at him which Bill ignored.

They had always been a bit too protective of his son.

But that only served to spoil Desmond and Bill wished he could find a way to pull him away from their ‘influence’ but they were the best field agents right now and Desmond needed to learn from the best.

But that did not mean…

Bill turned his laptop around where a video titled “Awesome Beastmaster Clears By The White Hood Gang!” was paused. It already had 21 million views and it had only been a goddamn day since it was uploaded. That kind of statistic was simply too much and Bill was quite sure Abstergo most probably rewatched this… a lot.

“So… anyone wants to explain this to me?”

All four men remained quiet and adopted blank expressions on their faces.

“Did none of you even consider that those cameras would have been recording even IF the shooting was scheduled tomorrow?!”

They all looked at one another before Ezio, their usual spokesperson, explained, “We were running away from Templars after acquiring the POE they had been delivering nearby. We noticed the obstacle course and decided it would be much faster to proceed thru it than to go around it, perhaps even lose some of our pursuers in the course itself and give us more time to get away.”

Ezio was surprisingly serious as he concluded, “It was a calculated risk we needed to take to accomplish the mission.”

Bill stared at him with a ‘don’t bullshit me, kid’ expression as he pushed the spacebar.

The laptop’s tiny speakers soon let out Ezio’s holler of “You gotta be faster than that, fratello mio! My younger brother is faster than you!”

Ezio didn’t twitch even as Bill said, “And was trash-talking Altaïr also necessary in completing the mission?”

The video kept playing and they heard a commentator that had been added to the video announce, “Oh! White Hood No 1 just grabbed 2 from the back and pulled him down! He skids- AND he’s able to hold on to the chains!”

Bill turned his not-angry-only-disappointed-and-having-a-headache-because-of-your-stupidity expression at Altaïr, “And sabotaging Ezio? Was that also necessary?”

“It was planned,” Altaïr replied vaguely and all four kept their blank expressions on.

Bill glared at the supposed prodigy of their Brotherhood and wondered if Rashid would mind if he hit his grandson on the head with a rolled-up newspaper.

Repeatedly.

“And 3 and 4 just jumped over 2! 4 is even laughing and-”

“A little help?!”

“You can do it! We believe in you!”

“-It seems 3 and 4 will not be helping 2 up!”

Bill turned to glare at his son and Ratonhnhaké:ton who he had thought would be above all this.

It seemed he had been wrong.

Bill finally clicked the spacebar once more to pause the video and rubbed the bridge of his nose again as he announced, “All of you are off the field until further notice. You will all be in support duty while Erudito cleans up your mess. Report to Shaun for further instructions.”

“Yes, sir.” They all answered curtly.

“Dismissed.”

He waited until they were all out of his office. Then waited a couple of minutes more to be sure they wouldn’t see him in their Eagle Vision before groaning as he slumped into his seat. He took the secret bottle of scotch he had in the bottom drawer of his office desk and didn’t bother to take the glass next to it, simply twisting the cap off and taking a large swing from the bottle itself.

Maybe he should just ship them all to Achilles.

Make them do actual ‘field’ work as punishment.

Then again…

Achilles would probably hunt him down and cane him in a week or so of having to deal with their own brand of bullshit.

HWS SEA but make it HetaDND

Enjoy these rough sketches because I will literally not come back to them until December. 🥲

(From Back —> Front, L —> R)

VN: Bumped into a couple of Quora answers that discussed archery practice, which got me thinking about Viet as a mounted archer, and I immediately thought of the elephants that the Trung sisters & Ba Trieu rode on. So Ranger: Beastmaster — also what if the elephant was from Thai? 🫣💘 Easily a tank through her mount, but can fight well as a DPS (think OW D.Va). ID: The thing is he has the fighting style of a Warlock(: Genie?) but the character of a Paladin(: Oath of the Ancients). He’s giving CR Fjord. 😭💞 For sure, TANK. TH: He’s just a Monk. Debated on his subclass for a long time because he’s a war freak charge-into-the-frontline kind of fighter. Way of Mercy is ironic but I love the imagery of the Merciful Masks (except he gets the khon styles). Way of Shadow — it’s on one possible etymology of Siam (Sanskrit, “dark”). Easily a DPS type. MY: Druid: Circle of the Moon for the Wild Shape into a Tiger, and as of typing this I just realized the moon motif. Mostly support, but upset him just enough and he’ll easily switch gears. PH: Bard: College of Swords for the two-weapon fighting style aka arnis/kali/eskrima. Personally, he’s more DPS than support, though as a latter Dirge Singer & Siday fit the bill. SG: See, the first thing that came to mind was the RO Alchemist class for the Homonculus feature — hence, his companion Fishball. Obviously there’s Artificer: Alchemist for that, but also it would be cool if Fishball is just a “chibi” form of his patron of a water dragon— Warlock: Fathomless. Not to mention Singa would have both high INT and CHA — alas, he’s a Support guy.

(more notes under the cut)

I jokingly called this AU as Dungeons & Drawing Circles, but truth be told I’m not restricting it to being after DND, let alone 5e. Now I’m just throwing hands and calling it a fantasy RPG AU, although out of familiarity, I do refer to DND 5e often. The classes I highlighted above are just there for where I got the inspiration.

I’ve had the occasional “oooh I think [character] would be a [class/es]” hc over the years, but I ended up expanding on the AU as a means of coping with the early months of ECQ. Now there’s so many plot bunnies that I’d summarize as: your og main 8 unwittingly team up for a quest and, over time, they hit a point where they realize that they cannot fight the BBEG alone (or at least just the 8 of them), so they travel around the world recruiting allies a la Suikoden 108 Stars of Destiny.

It’s even got a literal history timeline where preceding events (and characters!!!) are involved with the BBEG and ultimately why the main 8 came together. Think playing a later game in a series where you not only get to meet the playable characters from earlier games, but you get to recruit them.

And I just wanted to draw cool fantasy looks, haha! Nevertheless, nothing is final — especially when I've clearly taken inspiration from some indigenous groups. It's why I shelved this for so long because I need to do more research and it's just not something I have a lot of free time for.

[therlarys-whiteclaw]

So I Play Baldur’s Gate 3 and I’ve done Seperate playthroughs with different Tavs

I have even attempted to romance different companions for different tavs

I got bored so I made up backstories and everything for them :) each of them has their own vibe I’m going for and the vibe I got I romanced who I believe they’d go for

So from left to right I’ll introduce them just a small trigger warning some of the backstories may be triggering for some.

So starting with the first one

Sulphur (Top Left)

Asmodeus Tiefling male

Draconic Bloodline Sorcerer (Gold)/ Rogue Theif

Sulphur is an orphan boy who had to learn how to steal, and con people in order to survive, he lived on the streets and had bared witness to the deaths of both his parents.

Due to life on the streets he didn’t have much time to practice or Harness his innate Sorcery and focused ok thieving and survival, he along with a group of other orphans all joined together to help each other survive.

On his exterior he’s unemotional, stoic and cynical however internally he’s deeply caring for others he just struggles to express how he feels.

Sulphur was Romanced with Karlach.

Next one is

William “Billy” Strone (top right)

Half high elf

Bard college of Lore

William goes by Billy and has since he was little, he grew up in a dysfunctional abusive household, where he was treated less than a dog by his own mother who tried to mould him into being completely obedient to her billy was constantly under his mother’s thumb what ever she asked of him he had to obey or face a beating and be denied food and she’d “reward” him if he he obeyed however he had the spirit to fight back against her wrath and managed to get himself out of there he had always found he had a natrual talent and affinity towards music he always loved it ans used it as a means to keep himself calm and relaxed

Despite everything he is a very sweet and kind individual a romantic at heart who only wants to see happiness in the world as he cannot stand the suffering of others he enjoys poetry, art and music.

Romanced Billy with Astarion

Quin’la (middle left)

Githyanki

Cleric of Vlaakith

I don’t have much lore for her just yet still working it out she’s been romanced with Lae’zel

Rul’kir (middle right)

Githyanki

Bard college of Valor

Rul’kir was a Githyanki whose crèche was inside the material plane however they had been attacked by a group of adventurers and his egg was taken with them however when they found Rul’kir to difficult they ultimately abandoned him not long after that he met Sulphur and the two became best friends since

Rul’kir isn’t overly serious as most of his kind he is a free spirit and is very open minded compared to other Githyanki, he is curious and it often leads to him going on adventures.

He isn’t judgemental of people and how they live their life and is surprisingly respectful and knows when to back off.

Roamanced Rul’kir with Shadowheart 🙃

Rowena Windwhisper (second middle left)

Half wood elf

Ranger Beastmaster

Rowena is a Half wood elf who spent most her life as a nomad wandering the wilds venturing far and wide just her an her grizzly bear companion Misha she always felt most at ease surrounded by the wilds she would occasionally go to cities but preferred the wilderness to civilisation she had been separated from her family after fleeing from an attack and is wandering searching for them

Rowena is very laid back and chilled out she tends to be quiet and prefers to keep to herself she can’t be to far from misha or she will worry about him.

Romanced Rowena with Halsin

Thervan- (second middle right)

Seldarine Drow

Barbarian- Wild magic

I don’t have much lore for him either I will probably come up with stuff later. But he’s Romanced with Minthara

Ophelia- (Bottom left)

Mephistopheles Tiefling

Draconic Bloodline Sorcerer (White)

Ophelia came from a privileged family of nobles however and event happened which changed her into a Tiefling because of this her family disowned her after being disowned she decided to travel with a group of adventurers lending them her sorcery

Ophelia speaks very properly and acts like a lady, she can be a little stuck up, stubborn and more or less a diva she’s sassy and is a little squeamish.

Romanced her with Wyll

Lorilei Songbird (Bottom right)

Wood Elf

Druid of Spores

Lorilei spent most of her time underground, with mychonids unlike most Druids she’s always believed that death was just another part of nature and to deny it is to deny the natural order after spending time with mychonids she learned that new life can be born from death. She isn’t the type of Druid to shy away from civilisation she finds it fascinating which eventually lead to her travelling to different cities and settlements to research them.

Lorilei is always ready to learn something new, she is very curious and tends to seek out new things she just wants to know how the world around her works.

Romanced Lorilei with Gale

So that’s all for introducing my tavs they are all unique in how I view them and I can imagine dynamics from each pairing also this game just makes my creativity spark
