I want to do something different for the anniversary in late november, like with the story tournament I did last year. I'm thinking biggest influence on doctor who, originally I was thinking just with companions (which I might add to the list anyway) but I think it might be better with real people as a celebration of everyone who got the show where it is today. Obviously it would be a lot of nominations, which I might open up way in advance to give a really long nomination phase, I'm also going to put a starting list below. Idk, any thoughts on this as an idea I guess

ffxiv 4.1

why's kugane the hub city for stormblood. Narratively Ishgard made sense for Heavensward because Heavensward is the story of Ishgard and the location features prominently in the plot. However the story of Stormblood is the story of Doma and Ala Mhigo's fight for independence if anything the two cities should have unlocked after beating 4.0. Kugane also makes a bizarre choice for a hub city from a lore perspective given how Hingashi is known to be isolationist

msq time! yeah i was wondering about the leadership question for ala mhigo. narrative direction seems to be going towards lyse but i do not think lyse makes a good leader and then she'd have to drop out of the plot and scions. politically raubahn makes a lot of sense for reasons i have already stated so far the writers haven't hinted they're going down this path

I wonder is skalla preserved anything the same way the dead sea scrolls were preserved by the salt.

the choices foldora's parents made mirror some of the choices we saw the domans made in that it really was the only way to survive, but doing so also further ensnared their nation as a whole and worsened the lived of everyone. watching your kind loving father get stoned to death by an angry mob would traumatize anyone really. its foldora's mom that has completely bought into the garlean propoganda and when its perfect that when she goes to them for protection when she needs then the most the garleans let her husband die to the mob and her daughter be stoned.

and how do you think the non hyur or the beastmen feel. i understand her mother though, she sold out ala mhigo so to protect foldora so that her daughter wouldn't be conscripted and wouldn't be forced to fight and there she goes joining the army anyways.

this probably got the strongest emotional reaction out of me out of the entire game so far

oh we are having a raubahn arc! as much as raubahn makes sense as a leader ala mhigo would unify under there's a lot waiting back for him in uldah. he's got many positions and responsibilities from the flames to the syndicate. his son is there and nanamo is basically his daughter. but at the same time they're both grown and pipin has proven himself capable of leading the flames.

can I say that nanamo's really brave. she's not a fighter she got fake assassinated/poisoned for months and she still wants to participate in politics.

you want me to go to the literal other side of the world to talk to a merchant instead of literally anyone in uldah the city of merchants. besides the east alderd trading company is run by lolorito you can't walk 3 steps without running into one of lolorito's men in ul'dah.

oooh girl do not help the monopoly. you got the advice now look for smaller salt businesses.

I'm surprised by the lack of fighting in this patch. i guess this is a shift in game design from arr where they wanted you to fight everything. for example in salt town the devs could have had you demonstrate to wildred how to kill monsters instead of just pointing out the weakpoints.

hmm so in the end it was personal. nanamo saved raubahn's life by chance but that was likely one of the darkest periods of his life and he swore an oath. if only the paladin quests could be this interesting.

representative government! republic! (ahhhh now if only doma did the same...). i do like how they showed a little bit of the messiness because real world tends to be messier. most irl revolutions devolve quickly into a series of worse military dictatorships.

huh what happened to that bit about letting him choose. i mean i guess raubahn felt like he had to honor his oath instead of doing what he actually wanted.

hmmm. wait we're not putting raubahn to work. he's one of the best generals on the continent if not the world and ala mhigo is in need of 1. an army given eorzea's stance on garlemald. 2. any sort of law enforcement, security, or organization given the power vaccum left by the imperials. 3. really any security look what just happened at the first council meeting. 4. governance raubahn has experience on the syndicate now too. oh no i wouldn't let him go back to being any old mercenary you aren't getting away.

yeah good they putting raubahn to work.

the rooftop garden is still intact? didn't the battle with zenos and the giant primal trash the place. hey there's a unique chamber orchestra arrangement of the ala mhigo theme up here.

AlderNaturaAntler / AlderAntler

AlderNaturaAntler / AlderAntler

An aldernic identity relating to the desire to have antlers with nature-like features to it. A person may desire to have antlers or a certain length, appearance, antlers made of certain nature-based materials (water, birch, oak, etc), or certain plants hanging off the antlers (cherry blossoms, daisies, moss, leaves, etc). This is generally connected to the concept of a majestic deer connecting to nature, and possibly in a spiritual form or general appeal!

Not Very ScientiFic

part 1 [you are here]| part 2:

https://tmblr.co/ZtvKEVYDWiXe0y00

Ships:

Mermaid Virgil and Scuba diver Roman

Marine Biologists Remus and Logan

Virgil got stuck in an anchor long ago and has only been able to turn his head and flap his tail

He manages to bribe some younger mermaids into taking him to a coral reef so he can get food easier.

He forgets that humans go around coral reefs, but now he’s stuck because no smart mermaid would come to such a human obsessed spot.

Eventually a human does come, but he doesn’t get the reaction he expected

Virgil hisses at him, but he doesn’t run away in fear

Instead he raises his hands up and does some weird motions

(He’s trying to use sign language but Virgil doesn’t know what that is)

Virgil just hisses again which prompts the human to move closer to him

Virgil responds with a flurry of frantic hisses, but the human ignores him

The human unties some of the knots that he is able to until Virgil can wriggle out

The human backs up, allowing Virgil room

Virgil is thoroughly confused because aren’t humans supposed to be evil?

The human beckons him to the surface, and Virgil follows

Virgil isn’t very quick to break the surface because he hasn’t swam in ages

Roman is very confused

When did mermaids start existing??

It couldn’t be human or it would be drowning instead of hissing at him

He was relieved when the mermaid broke the surface

“Are you okay? How long were you down there?”

Virgil is very surprised by this question

were all humans like this or just this one?

“I- uhm- a while?”

Once they figured out that he’d been down there for two years (mostly based on his knowledge of human events) Roman suggested he would come to a beach with him to get patched up

Virgil had specifically not given the human his name, but the human kept calling him ‘ursula’ or strange names like ‘chemically imbalanced romance’ which confused him to no end

Virgil adamantly refused, which saddened Roman

(virgil absolutely did not feel bad for hurting this humans feelings)

(right?)

They comprimised and decided that Roman could treat him the next day but virgil got to pick where

Two humans instead of one showed up to meet virgil

virgil hissed at the new human very angrily

roman explained that the new human was patton and that he could help better than roman could

virgil reluctantly agreed but made them both promise not to tell anyone

virgil led them to a small beach with no humans on it and patton started to treat virgil’s bigger injuries first

there weren’t many injuries, but virgil’s arms were bothering him, especially his right one

roman talked to him to keep his mind off of the slight pain of some of patton’s strange tools

the next day they met up again at the beach but the humans both looked worried

this worried virgil greatly

“so, patton here isn’t very good at lying. and we have some close friends-“

virgil interrupts him “how many people did you tell?”

“only two!”

virgil stares at patton after his indignant remark

“the second a mermaid is found four people already know?!”

“it would be much more if we didn’t have to keep it a secret!”

“is this the mermaid you were talking about, patton?”

they all turn to see a human in a lab coat staring at them

virgil does his (now) customary hiss

the human just walks over and peers at his mouth

“why so you hiss? are you imitating another animal for survival? or can your voicebox already make that noise?”

virgil stared at the scientist

“my what?”

logan seems taken aback

“you don’t know about your anatomy? and roman didn’t help you figure it out? this is outrageous. roman, im taking him to the lab for stu-“

“NO”

three pairs of eyes turn to a frantic mermaid virgil

he would’ve escaped into the sea if the humans weren’t between him and the water

“oh virgil im so sorry. i’m sure he wouldn’t have taken you against your will”

roman tries to justify logan, but virgil is having none of it

virgil hisses at patton, who rears back in surprise

virgil uses this to use his tail to spring through the new gap and into the ocean

logan is on the receiving end of a lecture for the first time in a long while

they come back to the beach each day but find no virgil

what roman doesn’t know is that not a mile away, his twin and remus’s snakey friend are encountering the skitish mermaid and trying to calm him down for some explanations and also to explain that he isn’t roman

that’s all for now. i might do a part two if people actually like this

please don’t tag dukedontlook or tw deceit

Summary

- Fireday, 5th Sarenith in the year 815 (Second Era). Late Summer.

- The party begin this session, in the late evening having just finished the Council Of Crescent Moon the previous session. Most of the members of the Council retire leaving the party to discuss what they have leant about the Knights Of The Radiant Breath and how to approach the Yuan-ti Den of Gill-tan-garas.

- The party ask Ragnar, Cleric Of The Light, to use his divine magic to Commune with his god, Berronar Truesilver, Revered Mother of Safety, Goddess of Life and Light, Radiance Of The Dawn.

- In a private room of the Palace, Ragnar asks his first question to his Goddess, “Were there Knights called Knights Of The Radiants Breath fighting in the last Dragon War?”

- A female voice, without expression, answers simply: YES

- The party become excited. Trenchant prompts Ragnar and the Cleric’s next question is, “Are the stone statues in the amphitheater the Knights Of The Radiant Breath?”

- The female voice answers: NO

- With hope in his voice, Ragnar asks his third and last question, “Are the Knights Of The Radiant Breath still alive?”

- The female voice answers: YES

- Learning that the Knights do exist and are indeed still alive, the party are eager now to learn more, pressing Ragnar to again try to Commune with his Goddess. He warns them that pushing again so soon my fail. He prays again, and luckily his Goddess chooses to answer again. He may ask another three more questions.

- The party discuss what they know about the last Dragon Wars and where the last battle was fought, at the Grey Hills where the Forge Of Spells was located within the Wave Echo Cave. The Dragon Masks were forged in the Forge Of Spells nearly four thousand years ago, that started the first Dragon Wars. The Grey Hills are located in northern part of the Kingdom of Tyriba. The location of the Wave Echo Cave had been lost since that time, after a great arcane explosion blew the Grey Hills apart at that final battle, changing the landscape forever.

- However, The Wave Echo Cave was located within the Grey Hills last year by Gim, Nac (now working for the Zhentarim), Valder (now assistant Librarian of the Lington Royal Library but currently consultant to the Crescent Moon Council), Korvin (who was transformed into some hideous creature evil), and Balasar (who had gone to the Kingdom of Asalea to find his long lost friend).

- Gim is the only surviving member of that original adventuring party that set out from the north of Tyriba, long ago.  Gim tells them about locating the Wave Echo Cave, and how it is now in the hands and control of a contingent of Knights Of The Order Of The Gauntlet, led by Sir Daran, under direct orders by the King Of Tyriba. Knowledge of the recovery of the Cave has been kept secret, known only by a select few: Sir Daran (Order Of The Gauntlet), Archmage Tallous (High Circle Of Magi), Reidoth The Druid (Emerald Enclave), Lady Garaele (Harpers), and of course to King Erotill Alderd III, ruler of Tyriba.

- Given what Gim reveals, Ragnar next asks, “Are the Knights Of The Radiant Breath within 50 miles of the Grey Hills?”

- The female voice answers: YES

- After some discussion by the party as why the Knights are not known anymore, Ragnar asks his next question, “Are the Knights trapped or prevented in some way of making their presence known?”

- The female voice answers: NO

- Now the party are concerned that perhaps the Knights have turned sides. With some trepidation Ragnar asks his last question, “Are the Knights still fighting for good?”

- The female voice, for the first time shows emotion, the room is filled with divine joy as the voice answers in an uplifting tone: YES!

- The party spend more time, pouring over the two books that they have that detail the military units of the last Dragon Wars: the very rare and single last remaining copy of the “Dragons Of The Council” and the most comprehensive history book about that place and era “Tyriba - An Official and Complete History”. They can not work our why the Dragon Knights are not listed.

- Just before retiring for bed, Valthrun The Enchanter walks past and speaks to the party, when he sees their struggle, “I can not speak for the Dragons Of The Council book, I have never seen or heard of that tome but I can vouch for the other book. Yes, I have seen that book many times. It is held in every royal library, kingdom library and any grand Library. I even have a copy in my tower, well that was until my tower was destroyed by the Cult. I have seen that book in these central Kingdoms, to the lands to the far west and to the far east. The Royal Family of Tyriba, very graciously and at great expense, commissioned that book be made in the hundreds and was sent all over the lands. What a generous gift, without asking, the Royal Family of Alderd sent that work everywhere. It is such a comprehensive reference book, that no one has ever bothered to spend the time to research the history of that time and place ever again. Why bother when that book already exists, as such, I am not aware of any other history books that do. Your other book, The Dragons Of The Council one, is a very rare find. Precious. I had thought all over history books were lost.”

- With that information, and at a dead end, the party retire for the night.

- Starday, 5th Sarenith in the year 815 (Second Era). Late Summer.

- The party awake, and prepare themselves for their assault into Gill-tan-garas, the main Yuan-ti Den for the followers of Dendar. The Archmage Tallous gives the party a scroll and sigil to return them to Crescent Moon, but he warns them that Yuan-ti Dens are normally warded from arcane forces going into or out of it. They will not be able to Teleport back whilst within the Den.

- The party gather around and then Trenchant uses the Teleport Scroll to transport them to the sigil of Gill-tan-garas. With a loud arcane hum and a flash of power, they immediately they find themselves standing upon a stone dais with the sigil carved upon it, which still glows with residual arcane energy. White loose sands are around them, in this enclosed area. High mountain walls, around 500’ in height, enclose them on all sides. Ancient stone pillars, some having toppled over, lay around them. A series of pillars extends away, towards massive ruin stone features. At the far end is a large free standing stone archway that leads to a set of wide stairs that precede into the far mountain wall.

- Before the party can assess their situation, their presence is immediately noticed by a patrol of Yuan-ti Ophidians lead by a Yuan-ti Malison. Near the stairs, a group of Yuan-ti Broodguards beginning racing towards the party. And from the large stone archway, a pair of Yuan-ti Winged Guardians swoop down to join the battle.

- The party do not delay but commit to the battle, moving forward through the loose sands and engaging the foes. The Ophidians are no match for the party, and the Malison is dropped quickly too, as the party concentrated on the patrol leader. However, the Winged Guardians prove exceptionally deadly and very resilient.

- As the frenzied Broodguards try to tear the party apart, they are cut down before they can do much damage. Eventually the real threat, the Winged Guardians, are dispatched and the party rest briefly and consume some Healing Potions. This first encounter, has shown the party how deadly some of the Yuan-ti can be.

- The party cautiously approach the stairs leading to the main entrance. A large open archway, painted in colours that have faded and worn from time and sand, are decorated with painted snake statues. Gold plated snake statues flank the raised walkway. Green light can be seen from within.

- The party enter a large Entry Chamber, with four large stone snake statues present, their gem eyes glinting from the sunlight streaming in from the open archway. There are two lit passageways going north or south. A large set of ascending stairs and a large set of descending stairs flank a single green flame that gives some illumination to the chamber. Three large round holes are present on the fall wall, each large enough for a two foot wide snake to use but too small for a humanoid in any armour to use. These “snake holes” go up and down.

- The party choose the north passageway, and Sir Krondor and Gim barely leap over a pit trap that they set off.

- The passageway leads to a set of ascending stairs, that proceed upwards for some time, turning back round in a series of corners, that raise the party about 100’ in height to the next level.

- Sir Krondor and Gim move into a long corridor, lit from either side by a pair of candles that illuminates an intricate carving on the stone walls at both ends of the corridor. The carvings depicts hundreds of small snakes all swarming over themselves in a random pattern, each with their mouth open.  

- Sir Krondor and Gim set off another trap as they move down the corridor, and hundreds of small poisoned darts shoot out from the open mouths of all the snakes at both ends of the corridor. Both Dwarves are hit multiple times, taking a little damage, but their tough Dwarvish blood resists the poison.

- As the party move around the corner at the far end of the corridor, a volley of crossbow bolts fly through a forward illusion sent by Trenchant. The party rush forward to find four human Temple Guards, wearing heavy armour and carrying duel swords and crossbows. Ragnar uses a Scorching Flame to burn and force back the Guards, whilst the party move up and engage the stragglers. Slowly all the Guards but one are killed. The remaining guard has fled down a near by corridor, shouting a warning.

- As the rest of the party move towards that corridor, Naillae stays behind to check a dead end for secret doors. She does not find any but does see two more of the “snake holes” here, one going up and one going down. It would appear the Den has multiple ways to traverse between the levels, some only accessible to snakes.

- Ragnar is the first to look around the corridor, to look into a small Alchemy Preparation Room. A volley of crossbow bolts, and hurled magic spells, greets him but luckily he is not stuck. Before the enemy can attack again, Ragnar hurls a Fireball into the small room, engulfing it in an explosion of fiery death. Half a dozen Cultists, hiding around the corner, are immediately killed. And the remaining Cult Fanatics are barely standing, suffering sever burns. The two remaining Temple Guards are badly burnt.

- The party rush into the room, which has fire raging on the now broken and exploded furniture and cabinets from the blast of the Fireball. Broken vials and flasks, their liquid contents now evaporated from the blast, are scattered over the floor. Burnt parchment and scroll papers flitter to the ground in ash. Broken alchemy items lay scattered everywhere, broken Runes, burnt herbs and melted alchemy candles. The smell of burnt flesh mixes with incense.

- The party quickly move in and drop the remaining and badly burnt foes.

<And as the party look around the room which is now a scene of devastation, wondering what valuable items they lost, that is the end of the session.>

Not Very ScientiFic 2

part 1: | part 2 [you are here]

https://tmblr.co/ZtvKEVYDCFne4q00

hello!! people seemed to like the last little fic a lot so here i am with another one! i hope you enjoy it.

ships:

eventual prinxiety (mer!virgil and diver!roman)

intrulogical (marine biologists remus and logan)

virgil skedaddles out of reach of the three humans as fast as he can

virgil had been proven right. humans were only evil. how could he have let himself forget?

virgil speeds off to a beach he just hopes isn’t infested with humans

he finds the island, but he also finds roman and a new person sitting.

well, the new person is sitting. roman is reading from a book.

virgil gets slightly closer, curios to what they were doing, but still wary

what if this human was here to take him to a lab? what if roman had turned against him? what if-?

his worrying was interrupted by roman pointing to him and the other human standing up. they yell something at each other before the new person holds his hands around his mouth to amplify his voice

“hey! are you okay out there? do you need help?”

virgil is very confused and a little scared

why only now would roman not tell anyone?

he swims closer and only then realizes that roman doesn’t have a mustache. or a white streak in his hair.

the two humans are silent for a second before the one that looks like roman squawks.

“dee!! it’s a mermaid! merman? merperson?? i don’t know!! but they exist! i wonder what else exists. do sirens exist?” remus goes rambling on while deceit turns back to the merperson.

“are you truly a merperson or whatever you’d like to be called? i promise we won’t hurt you. thats remus and you can call me dee.”

virgil is confused again

these humans seemed to be good, despite remus’s raving about, but that one human wanted to take him to a lab

“you wont be able to take me to a lab.”

even remus is shocked out of his ramblings.

“why would we? oh!! do you know who would love this? logan!” remus continued

“you’re not?”

dee answers instead of remus

“of course not. im sure it‘d be outlawed to take any fully intelligent creatures to a lab against their will if people knew there were any”

virgil is surprised by this. was the other human going to break a rule? or was he going to ask? was that human bad? if so, he should warn roman. but what if roman was bad too? what if they were going to try to capture him?

dee could see that virgil was panicking.

“remus? why don’t we not focus on logan and roman at the moment.”

“you know roman?”

both of the humans turn to him

“yeah? he’s my brother! you know him?”

virgil backs up a few inches.

“you don’t want to take me to a lab like that bad person, right?”

“roman wanted to take you to a lab? i might have to-“

“no no another person. he told another person and he came to help me because my arms were hurt and then another person in a lab coat came and said some weird words and then said he would take me to a lab.”

virgil was a bit panicky when he spoke.

“describe the person. i would be very happy to accidentally bash them over the head with a beaker.”

virgil blinked

“humans hurt each other??”

dee sighed and explained

“remus hurts humans he doesn’t like. and sometimes humans he does like.”

virgil was confused, but he explained how the human looked anyway.

remus had a giant grin on his face.

“so you do know logan! i’m very sorry that he said that to you. i’m sure that he didn’t mean it. he gets very excited sometimes. especially when he finds something new.”

virgil hella backed up this time

“so no one is gonna take me to a lab?”

dee expected a lot of things, but not hopefullness in the merperson’s voice

“no. we wont hurt you or make you do anything against your will.”

virgil actually smiles at this

“then,, you can call me anxiety. it’s not my real name, but i like the word.”

remus smiles back

“well then nice to meet you, anxiety!”

they have a similar pattern to when virgil met up with the other humans and they met up at the beach every other day.

two weeks in, a worried and sad roman tries to find his brother at the beach he goes to on his breaks

what he did not expect to find there, was a surprised merperson staring at him.

what he double did not expect, was the grin on his face.

“roman!!” anxiety called.

he hopped onto the shore, the end of his tail dipping into the water.

“remus said you might come sometime!”

there was something else, more expected but not at this moment

roman realized just how gay he was

and the merperson in front of him was very adorable when he looked genuinely excited

and the merperson was excited to see him

i don’t know how to write romance well im sorry! if you have any tips, just reply or message me!! i would appreciate the help

also just send an ask or message and i can make a taglist if anyone wants it

dont tag dukedontlook or tw deceit or any of that
