One Piece - #1006 | The Honorable Hyogoro the Flower

Kicking back off the read along with a colorspread, yay! It’s been fun starting to get to know the Tobi Roppo and I’m excited to see how the rest of the raid turns out

[bigsnaff]

okay. I swear somebody's already done one of these before but I'll never be able to find it and I'm curious because the shadow behemoth is a weekly YET AGAIN which is the boss I detest above all others. so.

Omitting Karka Queen/Drakkar since there's no more room and they were added after launch anyway. but feel free to say in the tags whether you hate them the most.

[mistborn-bastard]

If you even think about whining about this poll, consider instead: shoving an entire watermelon up your ass it's just as meaningful :)

ALRIGHT It's halloween, so my beloved monster fucker followers, I am asking you the real questions

Images of them in the same order below the cut

Wish there were more outright female monsters? DAMN ME TOO But i don't work at anet so theres fuck all i can do

[chopprface]

ive been playing an absurd amount of risk of rain lately and ive started to wonder about a BW au where they ended up on petrichor V (maybe the preds replacing the contact light and the maximals replacing safe travels?) so heres my altmode ideas for the cast

rattrap: blind vermin > spitter

depth charge: one of the wandering vagrant variants (maybe the juveniles from the first game)

inferno: beetle guard (megatron has the queens gland?)

megatron: scorch wurm > magma worm > gilded wurm

dinobot: elder lemurian (dinobot II can be acrid cause i love acrid)

optimus primal: stone golem > stone titan > aurelionite (he fuses with him instead of prime)

tigatron: mini mushrum

airrazor: swift/alloy vulture

tigerhawk: kur ska the heretic (idk just makes sense to me)

cheetor: wisp > greater wisp > ancient wisp

rampage: void devastator (sand crab could work too but i wanted him to be a boss to point out his power)

blackarachnia and tarantulas: mechanical spiders

waspinator: aspid

terrorsaur: blind pest (different from vermin, pests are fliers)

quickstrike: lemurian calvary

silverbolt: evolved lemurian

scorponok: sand crab

ravage: imp

rhinox: bighorn bison

i mightve forgotten one or two of them.. oops

Heir To The Lands Chapter 54

Masterpost Last Hour Confessions

The Portal was still up and as Kit's initial sadness died down, he realized why. "But Ty still needs to go. How can he use the Portal when he's unconscious?" He asked his foster mother, feeling another wave of stress wash over him. "Because, I realized there is one more person who should leave before we invade Idris and unfortunately, Jaime proves to be more stubborn then I thought him to be. As wrong as it is, I am trying to use Ty as a way to guilttrip him into going." This made sense to Kit. Jaime was still recovering from having been a prisoner in Faerie and wasn't fit to fight now Kit actually gave it a minute of thought. In his current state, it was quite likely that Jaime would die in battle and Kit didn't felt comfortable with the idea to use the boy as cannonfodder. "You're right. Should I talk to Jaime?" He asked, not really knowing how to get Jaime to go to L.A. "No need. I think I saw Dru going upstairs after him. I am sure she can manage to persuade him," Tessa countered, a knowing smile on her face.

Jaime was staring at Ty. He knew they were trying to pressure him into going to L.A, where it was safe. He also knew they had a fair point why they were doing so. Whilst he was steadily regaining the weight he had lost imprisoned, he still needed to work on his muscles in order to have the strenght for the upcoming battle. Yet, the thought of the Seelie Court teaming up with the people left alive of the Cohort made his blood boil. Both camps had previously imprisoned him and he had come to hate them for it. He would never forget what it's like, trapped in that cell for days, wondering when he was going to die. Constantly anticipating his heart to fail at the lack of food and being left with nothing but those panicking, spiralling thoughts. If it weren't for Gwynneth, he wouldn't be here. Yet, just the thought of the Seelie Queen made his blood boil and he would gladly slit her throat and watch the light dim in her eyes. He turnt around as he heard footsteps and saw Dru had entered the room. "Hi," she said hesitantly and he tried to smile in an attempt to alleviate the awkward atmosphere. "Did Tessa sent you?" She shook her head before sitting down on the bed next to Ty. "Is it weird that I'm happy he's not fighting? I mean, it's likely some of us will die and I am terrified of losing another sibling. I don't think I could survive another instance like Livvy again," at the end of her sentence, her voice nearly broke and Jaime's heart ached with sympathy for her pain. "It's not. If I lost Diego, I'd be surveilling around Cristina like a hawk. Same if it were the other way around." Dru looked at him and the words flew from her mouth, "I don't want you to die, either." Jaime looked at her and his heart raced. He cursed himself for the way she made him feel, she was too young for him. Yet, he always had felt like they had a connection, like something clicked. He felt guilty for every day he lived with her, yet she was wurming her way to the very center of his heart. Jaime sighed, needing to get his thoughts off his chest. "I am sorry, I know its rude but I overheard your conversation with Thais. I know the real reason why Ash Morgenstern found out our location. I will keep her secret as I'll keep yours. But I need you to know something. She's right. A guy stalking you over one interaction years ago is creepy. You deserve better Dru. If you face him on the battlefield, don't let whatever spark you felt get to you. You deserve a guy who loves you because he actually knows you and thinks you're an amazing person. Ash doesn't even knows the names of all your siblings, despite how important they are to you. He doesn't knows the names of your friends either or the movies you like. It's just wrong." To not linger on his word vomit, he decided to move to Ty's body. "Can you help me carry him to the Portal?" Dru was pleasantly surprised by the outburst and smiled. "Of course I'll help you. I'm glad you'll be safe."

Veera seems like a cinnamon roll, I'd love to know if she's problematic 👀

Waited until we finished book 5 of Curse of the Crimson Throne!

Veera is my pf1e Slayer/Vigilante, now level 15. She is the daughter of Vudran immigrants in Korvosa, and has taken up the mantle of local vigilante in her efforts to take down a tyrannical queen choking the life of her city. She's generally neutral good, a real goody two shoes! ...But she's also done/said some pretty dumb stuff.

Has never told her parents the truth about what she does and where she's been. She's out away for weeks and months at a time and they have no clue where is!

The above included when a crazy deadly plague was sweeping through the city and everyone was forced to quarantine. She was out and about never returning home! They probably thought she'd caught it and died out on the streets.

It continued when martial law was declared and brutally enforced.

It continued even more when the district they lived in was forcibly isolated and quarantined, and she couldn't even get back to her family. Her parents and small army of aunties and uncles were worried sick and had no way of knowing she was fine - much less fighting tyranny, devils, daemons, and fighting a cult of Urgathoa backed by the state.

And when she did reconnect with her family, she had the audacity to show up with NEON COLORED HAIR!?!? Her mom literally wept. (Thanks 'lightly cursed' chameleon ring).

She played Blood Pig. So many innocent little pigs... dead because of her...

Most of the time defaults to killing her foes rather than letting them live. Most are unrepentent or truly monsters at least...!

And yet among the people she has spared are Red Mantis assassins (Desna asked us to tbf)... Kuthonites... Nosferatu vampire guy... wererat terrorists... a sakhil... hags... AND

Decided to ally and work together with a rival Vudran business family (mafia) that her father has warned her against her whole life and she is like 99% sure are actually rakshasas

Of which said family had kidnapped the superhero vigilante she looked up to her whole life and had also kidnapped the city seneschal who is the only person who can oppose the tyrant queen legally and let them be tortured by asuras. Of which he said "whoopsie doodle I gave them express orders NOT to do that teethee." She was able to look past this.

When she found out the identity of the vigilante she spent her entire life idolizing, she was... not happy or nice about it. Refused to become his successor and chose her OWN vigilante identity, acting cold and spiteful about his inaction and failures to fix the mess of their city.

100% knowingly drank very poisoned "beer" from a goblin in a sewer as an intimidation tactic, crushed the fort save, and then cornered the goblin and tried to force them to drink it themselves (said goblin turned out to be a greater barghest so don't feel bad).

When her friend was bit by a wererat she told him it was okay he could just buy a cage and lock himself up at night. (He did jsdljskldja)

Nearly killed a gargantuan wurm connected with the plane of fire that's a literal living legend and sacred beast to local Shoanti tribes trying to get it to eat her friend to recreate a myth for clout with them

Said wurm kept refusing to eat him, so she let it eat her instead rather than risk letting it die which denied him, also a Shoanti, a key moment to connect with his culture and heritage. The experience wasn't spiritual for her. She rather hated it lol (mmm super heated wurm viscera)

Tricked kobolds into thinking we wanted to pledge ourselves to their red dragon master so that they'd take us to his lair. We killed them. And the dragon.

Cooperated with Kuthonites on numerous occasions, including helping them retake an ancient castle that's been cursed for 700 years and was the home of a divinely sent blue dragon super turbo tyrant warlord chosen by Zonny Boy himself.

This castle has been under watch by the local orcs because said dragon genocided them in the past and they have taken oaths to never let him rise again - we ended up having to kill one of them to get past... sorry guy...

Fought a graveknight and upon learning they're unkillable so long as their armor sticks around, opted to throw the armor into a well without its weapons and let the cleric seal it with wall of stone.

Fought a mummy lord and upon learning they ALSO are unkillable (except by a series of convoluted means), dragged the not-yet-regenerated corpse into a star tower (the zon-kuthon created nails in Rovagug's cage) and shackled it into adamantine manacles.

In said tower, a "curate" was needed to keep it from decaying and thus weakening Rovagug's cage. A divinely sent nightwing asked us if we wanted the job. Obviously not, we're Kuthonites. Veera wanted to offer the souls of their Kuthonite allies (stuck in gems thanks to a demilich obliterating their bodies) directly to it assuming they'd be cool with it and thrilled to go directly to Zon Kuthon... instead of, you know, being resurrected

They in fact were not cool with it. Upon bringing them back and telling them the situation they tried to kill each other to force the other into being the new curate. Veera intervened and brutalized the instigator so badly in a single round that he dragged himself over to the nightwing and begged to be saved by taking on the role.

And this is why her vigilante persona, Raja, is chaotic neutral, and she herself is neutral good :)

Her skin Literally turns blue, and so do her eyes balls.

^^^^ she cant see for SHIT, so she'll stay in her hide for the next week..... I....

I miss her....

[cabalt]

I don't particularly care to see a plane that solely exists to be "the place the Slivers overran first" as much as I like Slivers. Much like getting a glimpse of pre-Khans Tarkir, a focus on Sliver-world HAS to be set in the past and is a story vacuum, for the sake of adding "more lore" to a species that I think is cool because of the mystery.

And not to be mean, but I don't think anything new with Slivers will be as interesting as the Sliver Queen actually having a conversation with and making a deal with Karn, since every Sliver "leader" since seems to lean into the personality-lesa hive mind swarm.

But also, I LOVE Garruk, he's my favourite big boy, and I seem to be the only person that actually read his origin comics, which shows that the things on his home plane are: wurms, baloths, humans and horrible nobles. He could just be from Dominaria like so many other "generic fantasy" style character, nothing that makes him interesting is tied down to what plane he comes from.

However if giving him a special plane means WE ACTUALLY GET TO SEE HIM ITS BEEN YEARS, then sure, Garruk world.

Which one do you think people are more interested to find out, Slivers's homeplane or Garruk's?

A fine question:

[eating-you-alive-cutely]

Do it do a lil jig?

Absotootly

Regarding purple dragons, wyrms, and worms (and sea monsters):

We can find D&D's five chromatic dragon types all the way back in 1971 in the "Fantasy Supplement" appendix of Chainmail by Gary Gygax and Jeff Perren (above). Their main rules are for fire-breathing red dragons, but they suggest variant rules for blue and white dragons and briefly describe the traits of the black and green.

Included among these dragons is the purple dragon, aka mottled dragon, described as "a rare, flightless worm with a venomous sting in its tail." This use of "worm" seems to have the Old English meaning of wurm/wyrm as a reptile, serpent, or dragon, rather than as an earthworm.

Three years later Dungeons & Dragons Volume 2: Monsters & Treasure (1974) gives specific rules for all five chromatic dragons and adds the gold dragon as the only lawful dragon. It also clearly shows and describes the purple worm as a separate monster with the general form we know today, an oversized earthworm that can swallow an ogre whole:

The "Sea Monsters" entry that immediately follows mentions the purple worm in comparison, but has no corresponding stats on the Monster Reference Table. The specifics are left up to DMs to research and decide for themselves. What I take from that entry is that a sea monster might use the purple worm's stats and the same rules for swallowing prey, but could take any shape or other stats the DM chooses.

Supplement I: Greyhawk by Gygax & Kuntz (1976) adds the other metallic dragons, their Platinum King, and a Chromatic Queen of evil dragons.

Supplement II: Blackmoor by Arneson (1976) introduces many new aquatic monsters, including the first official elasmosaurus, mosasaurus, and plesiosaurus, and the "Mashers: Coral eaters, harmless unless frightened, if so is just like 20 hit dice Purple worm."

The 1977 AD&D Monster Manual names the opposing king and queen dragons as Bahamut and Tiamat. It includes the masher, now described as a large worm-like fish with poisonous spines, reduced to 8 hit dice from 20, and no longer compared to the purple worm. The MM also brings back the "mottled" name, formerly a synonym for the purple dragon in Chainmail, now an aquatic variant of the purple worm that almost feels like a replacement for the original masher and possibly recalls the OD&D sea monsters:

The same book also includes other sea monster options like a giant sea snake as a variant of "Snake, Giant," the new dragon turtle, and the return of the elasmosaurus, mosasaurus, and plesiosaurus listed under "Dinosaurs."

The 2e Monstrous Compendium II (1989) gives the mottled worm the same brief mention as an aquatic variant purple worm, then I believe it passes from official D&D rules in later editions.

The purple worm remains one of the iconic creatures of the game, now far removed from its draconic origins.
