for the arospec ask game, 1, 15, 16

Hey, Chance! 💚 Thank you for the aro ask!

1. When did you realize you were arospec?

May of 2022!

I had never heard of the word until I was doing character identity research and it wad late at night when it just suddenly clicked.

15. What are some things you associate with arospec identities?

So most of the things I associate have come straight from Tumblr or other aro blogs, but:

Absolutely anything green, specifically 💚, froggies, dragon scales, SHARKS, and my personal favorite: our mascot the Dino.

16. Do you have any arospec OCs? If so, tell us about them.

There's an argument to be made that literally all of my characters ever are arospec, because I thought I was writing them experiencing what I was experiencing. Which was aromanticism.

Anyway.

I'll hit a few highlight characters:

Gwenevieve Hampshire

My first character to be recognized as aro. (I think. Some of them were close.) Gwen's aroallo, though she does not know it or even know the words. Her aromanticism is definitely there if you know to look for it in The Animatronic Saga, but it's becoming a focal point in my secondary series.

Javon Midori

Javon was actually one of the characters I thought escaped my aro blast. 🤭 He's ace, but I thought his relationship with another character kinda excluded him. Then I realized said relationship is just a really wonderful qpr and my baby is platoniromantic with really strong alterous attraction. He loves her, but who even knows how.

Tomas

My baby with the most labels! I actually have a joke in one of my stories about him just trying to claim the whole rainbow alphabet.

Tomas was my first bi character, but he's also demiromantic. He loves his boyfriend with his whole heart.

Angie Farley

One of my aro girls from my Aro Movie. Angie was the first character I created to be intentionally aro. She's aroflux and in a qpr (not yet in the timeline of my movie, but still) with Ruth. Working through her identity in the movie has been such a cathartic experience.

Ruth Eymmons

My romance-repulsed aro stand-in of a character. I have absolutely adored getting to write stories and scenes featuring someone like me who is also in a beautiful and wonderful relationship with someone who, to the ebst of her abilities, respects her boundaries and loves her just the way she is.

Camille

Literally the first character I ever created for writing, Camille's identity may end up being my favorite to write into existence. Because she's completely aro, but she also had a loving and devoted relationship with a woman and now she doesn't have any of those memories, but the woman in back in her life and she knows she cares? Question mark?

Neutralised (1994) [3/?]: My Version of The Shared Universe

For those of you unfamiliar with 'Chicago Hope', it was actually set in a shared universe. Also, 'Suspiciously Similar' characters will be involved (Due to actors playing multiple roles). This is my take on that:

Law & Order

Neutralised

THAC0 Thursday: Origins of AD&D 2E

For this THAC0 Thursday, I’d like to talk about the origins of 2e.

Background

The year was 1987. AD&D 1e was proving to be popular, but the popular rules were all spread out. Unearthed Arcana, the Wilderness Survival Guide, the Dungeoneer’s Survival Guide and Dragon magazine all contained updated and revised rules that improved play. 1e had begun to outgrow itself, so TSR resolved to consolidate the rules into a new edition.

The Team

Headed by David “Zeb” Cook, a small team of designers including Steve Winter, Jon Pickens, Mike Breault, Jean Black, Curtis Smith, James Ward, Kim Janke, Linda Bakk, Betty Elmore, Angie Lokotz, Jeff Easley, Douglas Chaffee, Larry Elmore, Craig Farley, John & Laura Lakey, Erik Olson, Jack Pennington, Jeff Butler, Jeff Easley, Jean E. Martin, Dave Sutherland, Colleen O’Malley and Paul Hanchette, as well as countless playtesters, started work on Advanced Dungeons & Dragons 2nd Edition. The first 2e book was published in 1989.

Changes

First and most notably, the origin of the name of this series, THAC0 was introduced officially. No more looking at tables all day, now you just did a subtraction problem!

Classes were grouped into Warriors (Fighters, Paladins, Rangers), Wizards (Mages, Specialists), Priests (Clerics, Druids) and Rouges (Thieves, Bards). Proficiencies were officially introduced as an optional rule.

Due to outrages over D&D’s supposed “satanic” nature, devils and demons were removed in this new edition, returning as the Tanar’ri and Baatezu, respectively. Also notable was the removal of the Assassin class and Half-Orc race, as TSR wanted to stress the heroic nature of characters and teamwork of the party.

The Monster Manual was replaced by the Monstrous Compendium, a loose-leaf binder with a full page for each monster. This was useful and novel at first, but quickly the organization of dual-sided pages began to become a problem. The Monstrous Manual, a bound book of popular monsters, was published in 1993.

That’s about it for now! Hope you enjoyed!

My Dream-

Granger

A TV Series about Hermione Granger at

Clifden Institute of Magic

Because Witches & Wizards who want to specialize need to study for an additional 3-4 years of study, preferably at an Institute of Magic. Duh!

Background-

IMs (Institutes of Magic) came into formation around the year 800. There had always been specialized organizations/program/academies for high levels of Magic. They usually took less than a handful of students each year. Around 800AD the area now know as Nairobi, Kenya had more than 20 of these academies. They joined together and the first IM was founded. IMs were few and small for many years. In the 1800s they continued to grown in enrollment and prestige. This was continued into the 1900s when these IMs became funded by magical governments offering exceptional witches and Wizards the chance to study advanced magics for free. Although specialized academies still exist throughout the world, there are only 25 Official IMs Globally. Although there have been rumors for years about secret IMs for high level dangerous or experimental Magic, none have been confirmed.

Clifden IM , in County Leitrim Ireland, was founded in the year 1050 by Merlin and Morgana High Wizard and Witch of Camelot. The IM itself is invisible to muggles. Only once in the early 1800s did a muggle once view Clifden. He believed it to be the gateway to another universe or perhaps Heaven. He went insane looking for it and eventually recreated the castle from what he remembered . The real Clifden Institute is 1000 times larger and more grand than the muggle replica castle. It is said to be one of the most expansive and beautiful Magical institutes on earth. While it is far from being the oldest, it is considered an elite school competing with Bayou IM in New Orleans, Louisiana USA, Nairobi IM, and Scholomance IM in Transylvania, Romania. (Rumored to be run by the devil to ward off Muggle, but actually run by Magical Creatures -Vampires-Werewolves-Giants-etc who were originally not allowed in traditional IMs, and still face discrimination in employment, the school's speciality is The Dark Arts)

The Show-

Hermione is awarded a special entry into a top level DADA program due to her fighting Voldemort. It’s her secondary field. Her Primary study is Comparative Magical Politics & Wizarding Relations . Hermione is beginning to think about a career in government. Normally student decide these things their final year of Hogwarts, but Hermione missed that year due to her Horcrux search. After graduating in 1999, she continued onto Clifden Institute of Magic.

Ron mises her. He supports her though. Time are hard with the distance. He’s undergoing intense training with Harry and of focused on work, but misses her a lot. Jealousy may occurs and they may go their separate ways for a while, but they always come back to each other. (It’s a TV series, we need the Drama!!)

Hermione & friends dealing with their PTSD of being children of war.

Hermione & her BFFs Ginny, Kellah, Angie, Ali, and Chelsea (aka Chelsea Cho-Chang, because “Cho” liked Quidditch but didn’t loved it and wants to leave her jock friends attitude, and childhood nickname in the past) hanging out, practicing magic on levels they didn’t know existed, dating. It’s PG-13 so nothing to out there, we want teens to see a beautiful intelligent Black leader in Hermione as she growns up, so it will be darker with more adult themes, but still PG-13.

Hermione Roomies/Friends/Classmates/Emenies

Apartmentmates- Parvarti & Padma Patil, Kellah Williams. Ginny Weasley (first woman in the family to go to a IM, her mom is very proud)

Next door student apartments

-Percy Weasley & Penelope Clearwater. Percy worked the ministry taking corospondance classes in Comparative Magical Politics & Wizarding (Hermione's same field) at the ministry’s Intern program, as they were funded by his intern job. After the battle at Hogwarts Percy needed a change, and after a breakdown he decided to quit his job and become a full time student. He is now a third year student and Hermiones’s SA (Sorcerers Apprentice/ AKA TA). He currently lives with his girlfriend Penny.

- Dean Thomas. Seamus Finnigan. Neville Longbottom. Ibrahim “Ibi” Bem. Emmanuel “Manny”Bem (who BTW- parents were Voldy supporters even though their mom’s big bro, AKA Uncle Kingsley fought him at Hogwarts. Their parents were killed a few weeks after the battle of Hogwarts and now the boys are being raised by their Uncle the new Minister of magic. They aren’t handeling all their new found “fame” too well.

- Angelina “Angie” Johnson. Alicia “Ali” Spinnet. Two of Hermiones closest friends.

- Hannah Abbot. Susan “Susie” Bones. Marietta “Mari” Edgecombe. Chelsea Cho Chang.

-Justin Finch Fletchley. Ernie Macmillan. Zachariah “Zach” Smith. Michael Corner

-Off Campus Student Mansion. Cuz you know these girls pulled some strings, pooled their money and bought the nicest place in Clifden.

-Pansy Parkinson. Mafalda “Mal” Weasley. Flora Carrie. Hesita “Hess” Carrow. Daphnee & Astoria “Tori” Greengrass.

-Draco Malloy. Blaise Zambini. Joshua “Pike”.

Off campus apartments ( non students)

Lee Jordan. With occasional long visits from his BFF George Weasley who really wants to hang out with Angie.

“Friends/Frenemies” who drop by for a few episodes throughout the series

(these people don’t go to Clifden as Students but still can come by

“ Katie”Bell. Leanne. Oliver Wood. Cormac McLaggen. “Romi” Vane. Dennis Creavy. Luna Lovegood. “Greg” Goyle. “Millie” Bullstrode. Adrian Pucey. Chase Vasiey. Marcus Flint. “Theo” Nott. Miles Bletchley. Graham Montague. Graham Pritchard. Malcom Braddock. Gemma Farley. Cassius “Cass” Warrington. Harry Potter. “Ron”/“Charlie”/“Bill” & Flure Weasley/ . (Some deep cuts here- if you know you know)

Also let’s be honest, HP was pretty white. Black Hermione being roommates with The Patil sisters, & Kellah, and BFFs with Angie, Ali, Dean, Lee, the Bem Bros, & Chelsea would be pretty cool. They have to kick Blaise’s Anti-muggle ass though.

Ps 19 years ago, Snape one got stupid potion drunk after he ran into a Lily-Lookalike visiting London from Canada. He saw her again that night, and being that she had just had a bad breakup and he looked like her goth musician boyfriend, well... lets just say, Draco is going to have surprise roommate who just graduated from Ilvermorny and reminds him very very much of an old teacher, with Lilly’s eyes of course 😋

A dream come true! The Prince's Heart is getting a Voice Over

When we started The Prince's Heart, we never thought we'd find so many wonderful persons willing to collaborate on our project.  Here we are now, a month later, with an entire crew of professional and aspiring Voice Actors willing to help us realize our Visual Novel!

Special thanks to our amazing Casting Director, Jacob Wilson, who directed the whole Voice Over process.

Let's meet the entire cast (in order of appearance in the game)!

Nick Chang as Edward (Protagonist)

I was born in Manhattan, but raised in Bryn Mawr, Pennsylvania, where I currently reside. I also proudly identify as a 2nd generation Asian American (half Hong Kong via my mother, half Taiwanese via my father) and a member of the LGBTQIA+ community (gay and demisexual). Since childhood, I have had a distinct love of music and performance. Having played violin from 4th to 12th grade and sung for even longer, I used music as a primary means to express myself growing up. As I progressed from high school to college, I discovered online voice acting, but it was not until my time in graduate school that I formally decided to become an actor. My interest initially stemmed from a desire to help out in localization projects, but over the time I have spent voice acting, I have come to not only develop a great appreciation of the craft of acting, but also further deepen my love of music and rekindle my love of performance. With my singing experience as a basis to my unique perspectives, I hope to bring sensitivity, curiosity, and innovation to every project I work on!

Jacob Wilson as Adam

I’m a voice actor, Casting and voice director based in Dallas Texas. I’ve been working in this field for almost four years Now. It’s a journey that has taken me literally around the world and I’m so thankful for all I’m able to do and have accomplished. Being a part of amazing projects like this one are what fuel me to pursue my passions. I realized I was bisexual when I was 18. It’s a group in the LGBT+ community that continues to get flak from seemingly all over. But my faith in it and myself has always been unshaken. Outside of VO I am a drag artist in the making under the name “Twilight Stunning”, who I’m going to show more properly in the coming months! I’m so thankful I’m in the position I am, and I can’t wait to see what we have in store for y’all!

Bradley Gareth as Michael (Main Character)

Bradley was raised in Western Pennsylvania, learning piano from age 5 and taking up local community theater at age 10. He pursued the performing arts throughout high school, consistently participating in high school musicals and chorus festivals during his tenure there. At the end of high school, he also took multiple classes in musical composition and began doing online voiceover work.

During his time in college, Bradley participated in numerous professional and amateur voiceover productions both online and at the University of Pittsburgh's student radio station, WPTS Radio. While at WPTS, Bradley also began writing advertisements and online content for websites.

Now out of school, Bradley continues to lend his voice to multiple productions, dabble in musical composition, and provide content writing for WrightlySo.com.

Jared Prize as David (Main Character)

Singing provides me with some of the greatest joy in life. Outside of that, I love voice acting, hiking, and hanging with friends. My day job involves working with computers, so I like to find a bit of an escape into the creative-realm during my free time. My sexuality has always been a struggle, but I find comfort in not putting a label on it (at least for now). Mostly, I am very excited to be a part of an ambition team of lovely people. Working within a project like this brings excitement during the process, and even more-so while waiting for the final piece! I hope you enjoy what's to come xo

Marisa Duran as Lady Marie

Hey there, I’m Marisa Duran. I’m an actress working and living in Dallas, Texas.

I caught the "theatre bug" at a young age. My parents will tell you that it started when I was two years-old, dancing around to the Barney theme song. I agree wholeheartedly.

I grew up in a suburb on the east side of Dallas and was fortunate to have the opportunity to explore a city known for its rich culture and artistic influence. My passion for theatre was fueled by the many musicals that toured through town and I quickly decided that I wanted to spend the rest of my life as a professional actor.

In 2016 I graduated Magna Cum Laude from Texas Christian University in Fort Worth, Texas with my Bachelor of Fine Arts in Theatre, emphasis in Acting. Since then, I’ve had the privilege of working with multiple professional theatre companies in the DFW area. I’ve also expanded my career into the worlds of film and voiceover, landing roles in short films, webseries, and commercials, and lending my voice to over a dozen anime titles at FUNimation.

Art has the power to heal, to change, and to empower. As an artist, I believe that my purpose on this earth is to tell stories, and through these stories I hope to make a positive impact and leave people better than I found them. I consider it an honor to be able to use my talents in such a profound way.

Whenever I’m not rehearsing or recording, you can usually find me at my day-time marketing job, playing video-games, or drinking coffee at a local coffeeshop.

Happy Blorbo Blursday! Which of your OCs can handle spicy food?

--@oh-no-another-idea

Hey, love! Thanks for the ask!

So, in all honesty, I'm pretty sure that most of my characters CAN'T handle spicy foods. Whether due to where/the culture they're from or due to what the world looks like.

But Angie Farley from my aro polyam story definitely can. Not only does her mom cook spicy stuff a lot, it's just a part of her character not to back down.

[forbidding-souda]

Um hey sorry about before. > <; Oh yeah my dog.^^ Mella she is a Australian silky terrier, She is more of the short haired kind tho. Animals I've had when I was younger are a shih tzu x maltese (Rusty), Mouse (Mitchell), rabbit (Jasper) finch (Nicholas) guinea pig (Coby) Lori's (Angel & Pretty) oh also my dad had some bearded dragons, a husky (Heidi) & a carpet python named Samara which i loved to bits , Whenever i visited i would always get her out. Ps- What kind of pets have you owned ? - 🐺

Damn you got a whole zoo in your house wow. Started from when I was born we had a black cat named Sanity that my dad got with his ex, so the cat was old asf. He actually died a few years ago so he lived to be around 23-24. Then, when I was a baby, they took in a stray cat named Molly. She was brown and very furry. We've had mice, which I named after skydoesminecraft bit characters (antonio, gustavo, etc from his cops and robbers videos with team crafted). And then we've had a turtle named crush that we gave away when we moved to california. After that, we had two birds which I named Angie (yonaga) and Farley (from red queen), but my mom the wise woman (/s) she is decided to go on a two month long roadtrip with us and leave the birds??? alone in the house??? and then was surprised when they were dead when we came home. I'll never forgive her for that she's fucking stupid. THAT WAS LITERALLY BEFORE I WAS IN HIGH SCHOOL BUT I'M STILL MAD ABOUT IT LMAOO. Now I have one bird named Bmola and he's very annoying but he loves me very much.

Odyssey

TMNT: ODYSSEY MARCH 2015 BY ANDREW MODEEN, JIM LAWSON, DAN BERGER, RICK ARTHUR, ARSENIY DUBAKOV, SOPHIE CAMPBELL, MARK FELTHAM, COURTLAND BRUGGER, DENNIS KENNEDY, ANGIE STERNITZKE, DMITRY BOBROVNIK, TOKKA, RICK MCCOLLUM, BILL ANDERSON AND A.C. FARLEY

After discovering she is being erased from reality, Renet goes to Donatello minutes before his death, to pass her powers to him, to prevent the destruction of the multiverse in the hands of the Shogun. Donatello then goes at the final moments of the lives of his brothers to recruit them for this final mission.

SCORE: 8

This is non-canon and also not an actual official TMNT story. However, it is meant to bring closure to the pre-Viacom multiverse and it does involve several TMNT artists from all time.

It is hard to discuss without spoilers, so I will continue in the spoiler section. I think it was mostly good, even with all the fan service, but it has a couple of flaws that could take you away from the story. One is how much it already is like another BIG crisis-event story, and the other one is the identity of the Shogun.

The art feels a lot like this belongs to the regular Mirage publishing comics. Mostly because the artists involved were a part of it.

Spoilers after the break...

Stop right there... Dimension A is both Fred Wolf and Archie. I know that simplifying them is easier, but they had different characters and events. It’s just a small detail.

Incorporating Venus de Milo and Slash (from Archie) was another interesting spin to this story, as these characters had no alternatives. Of course, Venus is forbidden territory, I am not even sure how Jim Lawson dared use her :p

Bloodsucker is another character of forbidden access. But only for Mirage comics, and not for fan-made comics like this. For whatever reason, Rick Veitch didn’t want the story to be reprinted and it remains his.

The Mighty Mutanimals are brought back in spirit to rectify the wrong done to them by Mr. Null. Now, you could remove Null and the Mighty Mutanimals from the story, and even Venus, and there could be a simpler (faster) way of approaching the same ending.

There are a couple of things I figured out by the middle of the story. One was that the Shogun was a turtle (and my main suspicion was on Mikey, since he mysteriously “dissipated” and no one ever heard from him again). The other one was that this story was written like a movie (has many things taken from the road-trip formula), or more accurately, the “journey of the hero”. Almost every story follows the “journey of the hero”, even if by accident, but in this case it is specific, that it is too evident. It’s not a bad thing. But they could have been a bit more creative with the story beats.

Now, the story that is being ripped off here is “Zero Hour”. To me Zero Hour was such an enjoyable story, I also found myself ripping it off at some point in my life. It’s very tempting because it is full of awesome tropes. In this case however, Michelangelo becomes Parallax. I don’t think this was the right choice. Sure, it made sense considering his disappearance, but even in the end, it would have made more sense for Leonardo to be doing this. After all, he was full of regret at the end of his life, he failed in keeping his brothers united and would have benefited the most by “rebooting” the universe into the IDW canon (by the way, heavy spoilers if you haven’t read the first saga of the IDW comic).

And if anything, Michelangelo should have played Leonardo’s part here, given how emotional he is. Getting the family back makes sense for him too. But this is something you may agree or disagree, as I can understand the reasoning for both.

This story separates two multiverses. Pre and post Viacom. However, this was kind of undone by the Turtles from Dimension F, when they visited the Fred Wolf world (ignoring the events of Turtles Forever). Turtles Forever, by the way, is referenced in this story.

So just like the self-made issues that gave volume 3 a conclusion that tied to Volume 4. This special ties both the IDW series with the Mirage universe. I think it is good that this was fan made. You can love it and assume this is what actually happened, or not like it, and just dismiss it.

Whatever the case is, the Turtles and Splinter finally made it into the hall of legends.
