I think it's kind of interesting how the Alan Becker/AVA/AVM, Roblox/Phighting!/GASA & OSC/II/BFDI fandom are so interconnected. All three being built around late 2000s internet nostalgia, and all three having MASSIVE overlap. It's like zoomer superwholock.

Oh shit turns out while I lost interest in my ancient egypt hyperfixation we found out Thutmose III probably didn’t actually make Holeshepsut out of hatred. Sorry Thutmose, I misjudged you.

STILL NEVER GOING TO FORGIVE YOU THOUGH. LOOK WHAT YOU DID TO HER.

let's do thiiiis :DD

#--/ archive (year) is how ill organize these oldies 💕

idr why i didn't post this one! i really liked it at the time. probably nervous abt the art style

it's part of a... wholesomeness series made in the same thin lines (hopefully tumblr doesn't mangle them- :'3 ). Autodesk Technical Pen my beloved

anyway this one was one of those first times i looked at that fuzzy period between AvA III and V. what were they up to after the (fanon dubbed) Blackfire Attacks???

and it's about how trying to enjoy something (someone)... while refusing to address the problems with it (chosen feels responsible for annihilating "bad" things (hence all the Xs))... doesn't hold up forever.

but there's also little nugget of hope there at the end. outside of The Narrative, people can work things out.

...wait, what the fuck? dark has his bracelets on- o_°

shit-

i have clearly misremembered the context here ppfpfppfp-

uH. well! i know it's still about those themes lmao. just. somehow scooted forward in time a bit, while not. atomizing him.

i was thinking about deadn't timelines a lot so. it's probably aligned with one of those ;P

past me, why did i do this to myself? ; v ; /silly

200 13th-Century Names

I've made a thing and thought others might be able to get some use out of it. If you just want the d100 tables, scroll down to the cut and skip my rambling as to what this list is. Short version, it's a d100 table of male names and a d100 table of female names, taken from 13th-century English records and trimmed to minimize names that were used within the last 140-odd years.

While working on my Dungeon23 project (updates collected here, by the way), I was looking for names for my NPCs, and stumbled upon the Henry III Fine Rolls as a source. This is a digitization and indexing of records from 13th-century England that include a lot of personal names. It contains references to a database they made that sorts these names by popularity and other factors, but the database apparently hasn't been maintained, because it's gone. For a while, I was just picking names from articles about that database, but I started to worry I was going to run out (due to my tendency to name any corpses of dead adventurers in the dungeon just in case someone likes to cast speak with dead). So I went to their index of names, which is great if you're looking for a specific person, but not useful if you just want a list of personal names, and decided to use their data to make a couple d100 tables for myself.

I went through the index and typed all the names into a spreadsheet. Then, to give the list a more medieval feel, I sorted them by how often they appeared in the Social Security Administration's data on baby names. (I know that's a bit US-centric, but to my knowledge there is no global database to use for this purpose.) Then I removed all the ones that appeared most often on the baby names list -- I figured if you were rolling on a table of medieval names, you'd be a bit disappointed if you got "John" or "Mary". (Incidentally, the following names appear both in the Fine Rolls and on the SSA's list of the top 10 (male and female, so 20 actually) baby names for 2021: Emma, Oliver, James, Ava, William, Isabella, and Henry.) I used the data going back to 1880 for thoroughness.

In the case of male names, this meant I was able to remove all the names that appeared in the SSA records. So the names in that table were (probably) not used at all in the U.S. between 1880 and 2021. (The SSA apparently doesn't keep records on names that appear less than five times in a given year, so it's possible there were a few of these guys around, but not many.) This is because, as you may expect from medieval records, there were more than twice as many male names in the records as female names, so there were more left over after cutting the ones that appeared in the SSA data. So twenty of the female names on the table were also used in the US since 1880, but not often.

I did not make any effort to sort names by etymology, so the list includes French, Welsh, Scandinavian, &c. names, not just names that have an English origin. Multicultural, for "pretty much just one quadrant of Europe" values of "multicultural". I don't think that should break anyone's immersion or anything; medieval people traveled around more than people tend to think.

Speaking of breaking immersion, I also cut the following names off of the list because I thought they might be distracting to your players if you randomly assigned them to an NPC -- or to your audience if you use this to name characters for a writing project. I'm not going to say there's something wrong with these names, just that they're the sort of thing you would want to only deploy on purpose:

From the male names:

Cok

Flourecoc

Hammecok

Marmaduke

Odo

Vivian

From the female names:

Cuntessa

Cuntus

Licorice

Also, to note, I've kept them separated into 100 male names and 100 female names because the source data was pretty firmly entrenched in the gender binary. Obviously you can do what you want with your characters' genders, though, and if you want to completely ignore the division, feel free to combine them into a single list and roll a d20+d10 for a d200 table.

Anyway, without further ado, the tables (or, well, lists numbered 1-100) are below the cut.
