Avoiding the white savior of the kingdom

@ceo-of-angst asked:

Okay so I'm writing a fantasy series. There's two main kingdoms though there is a third but that one doesn't have to do anything with this ask. Both of them are likely as big as a continent each so there are different climates everywhere, therefore there's a lot of diversity even within one country. The issues mostly is between the two kingdoms nationality wise, as there's a war. The prince of one of the kingdoms kills his older brother to gain the throne. This is where the issue starts. They have a younger (half)sister who ends up leading a revolution bc of her brother's bad rule (famine, war, dictatorship and incantation or sentence to fight to the death in war to anyone who doesn't obbey the government etc), she's white, she's helped by my main cast who are all poc (one of them also from nobility) from the other kingdom and I don't want to accidently make it a white savior She's not my main character though if anything we only see into her pov bc of a difference between kingdoms in book 2. Most of the pov is on my main cast so I don't know how this could pay out.

Add diversity to the kingdom

There is a simple solution: don’t make one kingdom all-white or all-BIPOC. Add in diversity and mixed race. You seem to already be doing that, and it’s not an issue of race but rather tyranny. White saviorism is when only a white character can solve a problem for BIPOC and they’re seen as the hero. If it’s a team effort, where your protagonist is fallible but well-intentioned, you should be fine. -Jaya

Questions to ask yourself

This critique got levied at Tamora Pierce’s Trickster series, and it’s a pretty valid critique of the books—every time you have a white person as a figurehead of an otherwise-diverse movement, you’re going to start getting into why this white person, and why then?

It’s especially salient if you have the person come into an already-established rebellion movement. Is her involvement the thing that gets the privilege necessary to make the movement valid? What about her makes her the ideal top person in the organization?

Why is she white?

My first question is: why is she white? Is it related to colorism and classism? If yes, then why are you automatically making the leading group white if there’s so much diversity and so many other groups can trend extremely pale?

Why are the kingdoms so big?

My second question is: why are the kingdoms so big? It’s actually frighteningly hard to run a continent-sized country. If you’re attempting to make these single groups so big simply for ease of worldbuilding, and for diversity’s sake, know that a country does not have to be large to contain a multitude of groups. You are allowed to have political rivalry in a small area and still maintain diversity within it.

How much privilege is she willing to give up?

My third question is: how much privilege is she willing to give up? Is she trying to take the throne for herself, or is she trying to destroy all of the structures that gave her status in the first place? Because that question will determine how willing the PoC around her are going to be. Why would they support a ruler if they’ve been subjugated by that family, with no real promise she’s going to be any different once she gets in power?

On the flipside, why would she be willing to give up any of her privilege in the name of removing her brother from the throne, and what stops her from going off the deep end once she has the ability to control others?

It’s likely doable to make this situation read as less of a white saviour, but in order to do that you’ll likely need to wask yourself a lot of hard questions about your motives and the character arc you want to have with her.

People may see a white savior, regardless

And you’ll also have to ask yourself if you’ll be comfortable with never really being able to avoid some people calling this a white saviour plot. Even if you do “everything right” and follow every bit of advice you can, there’s always going to be some people who aren’t too thrilled that the person saving everyone is white.

So examine your motives, really nail down what you’re trying to show with this, and come to terms with not making everyone happy no matter what you do.

On the show FOUND...

I just watched this show and I have thoughts. It's a typical procedural, -TV junk food in the same comfort space as 9-1-1 or the Equalizer (new thing to solve every ep while progressing the characters' stories), but it has some curves... The premise is this guy kidnapped the lead as a girl (no SA, but *definite* grooming) and she escapes, but now keeps him chained in the basement (unbeknownst to everyone else) to help solve her cases so she can rescue other abduction victims. Yeah. Very clearly purposefully dipping in that toxic and fucked up "darkfic" ish loosely inspired by Silence of the Lambs. Seriously... that kidnapper dude is called "Sir". That definitely raises an eyebrow in today's purity culture-heavy era and it's another anti-procedural procedural (like the Equalizer) in that it veers off and subverts the typical cops as heroes and often marginalized people as "villains"), both the pilot and the latest ep spotlight the fact of cops neglect of certain kinds of disappeared people (black girls and sex workers). It's a risk... that seems to have paid off in the short-run, as it's Peaock's biggest debut since it's launch. EVERYONE in the main cast is BIPOC (including one character w/ a mental disability and another who is also part of the alphabet crew) except for Kelli Williams (so far) from the 2000's show, The Practice, whom I've missed seeing... and Brett Dalton.

As an aside, I am fascinated by a good chunk of Mark-Paul Gosselaar's recent roles. I just wonder what kinds of things white-presenting multi-/biracial folks see, hear, and experience from people who presume they are white. -And I wonder if his earliest experiences playing Zach Morris (as a child and being required to dye his hair blonde to better pass) has influenced his adult choices to be in media with non-white leads. Seriously, The Pitch, Mixedish, The Passage, and this-, Found... He did say he almost quit acting after they canceled The Pitch, he was so attached to that show. I want some entertainment reporter of color to really talk to him about it. I also love that a dark-skinned woman gets to lead this and have the "desire" drama, and be purposefully painted as attractive while strong. That's Shanola Hampton of Shameless. Too often it's a certain kind of "SBW" box that does not allow for black women, especially of a certain age and skintone, to be seen as anything beyond respected, intelligent survivors, and leaders.

And if there's any kind of desire or attraction entangled in that (which is becoming more frequent) it gets picked apart and *she* does often too... even at times by other black women; see: the lashing Olivia Pope got and Shonda for writing her, despite that being the genre (I have my theories on why that is, i.e. some black women are stuck in internalized black church misogyny/purity...but I digress). All this to say, this Hannibal/Clarice thing with a twist is interesting... but it's a hard line to walk, especially these days and especially in this comfort food procedural space. But I'm intrigued by the gumption.

Watch the FULL version of our trailer here!

CAPRICIOUS PROVENANCE is an award winning D&D 5e AP Audio Drama fusion set in an arcanepunk, partially homebrewed world of Eberron! After The Last War devastated Khorvaire - and their lives - fate follows four unlikely friends attempting to grapple with their own destinies as the fate of the world falls into a chaotic uncertainty.Join our…heroes(?) as they navigate their ever-changing lives in the wake of destruction, wading in the depths of their trauma as they connect with the troubled people living in a fragmented world. We’re an all queer & trans, majority BIPOC cast of tabletop creatives that bend the rules, change the lore, and break the game to tell a story of fighting tooth and nail against the way things are, and daring to hope for change.

Capricious Provenance is free to listen to, and advertisement-free. Our team is small, and we have started this project with no funding. This podcast is a labor of love and collaboration between a group of friends that are very passionate about the art they create. We are hoping to acquire funding and grow the team in the future! For now, you can support the show via Ko-fi.

Will I like Capricious Provenance?

While Capricious Provenance’s main game system is D&D 5e, we use a mixture of different games in the podcast - such as Pathfinder and 1400 Sneak - to help tell our story. Additionally, while the world is set in 5e’s Eberron, it has been altered significantly and partially homebrewed to suit our main characters, featuring elements from various supplements such as Heliana's Guide to Monster Hunting. Capricious Provenance is full of magic, whimsy, gods, monstrosities, political intrigue, and queer romance. There is a heavy focus on storytelling through character roleplay that makes room for heart wrenching character arcs and gives space for relationships between the characters to organically develop. The show explores themes of found family, generational trauma, religious trauma, healing, self discovery, the cost of war, freedom and revolution against an oppressive regime. It is ultimately a story of hope in dire times, embracing the monsters within ourselves formed by the world we live in, and finding the beauty in brutality. If you are a fan of media such as Dragon Age, Castlevania, Monster Hunter, The Owl House or Baldur’s Gate 3, you may enjoy Capricious Provenance!

Capricious Provenance Features:

A mixture of actual play and audio drama that places you in the shoes of our characters as we roll the dice.

Diversity Portfolio: BIPOC Author: Yes—African American (literally, Sierra Leonean-American) Female Author: Yes Non-Binary Author: No LGBTQIA+ Author: No (as far as I know) LGBTQIA+ Content: Yes, but it’s subtle and understated; it’s not a focal point of the plot Original Publication Language: English Author Under the Age of 25: No Disabled or Other-Abled Author: No (as far as I know)

Reader Stats: Why I Acquired the Book: The social media hype around it piqued my interest plus I liked the look of the cover. Dates Read: 01 Jan 2024 to 05 Jan 2024 Experiences While Reading: I self-commentated throughout the entire read and nearly every theory I came up with was spot on. That was a lot of fun for me and did not detract from the  novel experience in the least.

Recommend? Yes, to all young women regardless of race or color.

Notes & Opinions:

This book speaks quite clearly and effectively about female empowerment, the heroes of the story are all women. This isn’t to say all men in the novel are the villains, quite the opposite, but the point is picking women up out of the dirt and putting them side-by-side with men as equals in all possible ways. Equally strong, equally brave, equally wise, equally intelligent, equally wicked, equally weak-willed, equally confused, equally scared, equally vulnerable, equally abused, etc.

It speaks to strengthening women while also allowing men to break free of toxic masculinity. The book features strong black leads and showcases the different natural and protective hair styles of black women. It also has a diverse cast that never draws attention away from the leads or giving a voice to black women while at the same time it also doesn’t push the diversity of the other characters down. Each race, each color, each culture has a chance to shine on its own and stand on its own two feet. The good and bad are diverse together, no one color/race is drawn out to be inherently good or inherently bad.

It does feature the enemies-to-lovers trope which progresses naturally to the point of being genuinely believable. It also strongly features the trope of found family, championing Supernatural’s catchphrase “family don’t end in blood.” In fact, by blood isn’t what makes you family it simply makes you related. Deeper ties that cannot be quantified make family.

The book covers quite a range of topics but the ones that stood out to me were religion, oppression, government, & inner turmoil.

The book neither espouses nor eschews religion. What it does is point out the dangers of fervent, mindless, fanatical worship. It shows how deeply entrenched the fanatics are in their own lies and their twisting of scriptural/sacred writings, rewriting of histories, and hypocrisy in their hierarchies.

The biggest oppression highlighted is that of women. The female deities were rewritten to be demons who had to be overthrown. Daughters must go through a blood ceremony to make sure they are “clean” enough to be allowed to live with their families, villages, and pure enough to be married off. Marriage for women purely means a life of servitude to husband and children, the marriages can be strategic for powerful or wealthy families. Women must hide their faces behind masks, the masks also show off their wealth or lack thereof thus creating a caste system based on economic status.

If a girl’s blood is differently colored, she is ostracized at best and executed at worst. Religious elders will lie to the villagers and lead them to believe the “cursed ones” have been executed but often they’re being held elsewhere to be bled dry. Gold is currency after all, even if it is the life in your veins. Families will literally turn on their daughters if they bleed gold instead of red. It shows how quickly bonds can be broken if you truly believe lies and believe you are doing right and just things in the name of those lies.

The laws of the land are pulled from the laws of the religious texts, there is no true separation of religion and state. The laws allow for the murder, rape, and constant physical and verbal abuse of girls and women. The blood ceremony is just one more way to control the female species, the masks are another, the permission to outright kill your own daughter if she bleeds gold. All of these are ways to oppress women. It gives the woman’s right to live into the hands of men.

This isn’t to say all fathers and mothers sought to destroy their own daughters, some tried very hard to hide their daughters or quietly send them away to live in safety. But those were few and far between.

Government was highlighted but not really how it worked so much as the complete and utter blind acceptance of the authority of government. The lies of the rulers were as accepted as the lies of the twisted faith. Since the leader of the country was appointed by gods, you can see how there was no separation of the two and how the two work in concerted effort to destroy women who are literally half the population. It’s not that government is bad because anarchy can be just as bad, but it was the complete acceptance of everything without question.

No one stopped to ask if a law was moral or just. No one stopped to ask any questions, to ponder the ethics and morality of what they were doing or saying. If something was decreed to be so, then everyone just went along with it. It was staggering to see how this blind loyalty with no regard to thought or contemplation led families, who supposedly loved their children would instantly revile them as soon as they were shown to be a bit different.

Inner turmoil was granted to our protagonist who struggled left and right with reconciling her faith with her reality, accepting her lost familial bonds for her new found family, admitting her worth as a woman against her fear of her own power, and relishing in love versus running from it. She had to learn to trust herself, her “sisters”, the female powers that be, truth, and a few decent men. She had to unlearn her faith, unfollow her government, let go of family ties that did not bind after all, and understand that men currently ruled the world but they weren’t all to blame.

She also had to experience the horror that is war. She not only shed her own blood time and time again, but had to spill the blood of others. The world was at war and she had to become a warrior. It’s a miracle the girl didn’t get whiplash from all the ways she was pulled. Beloved daughter to scorn of her village, being bled out for cash to being enrolled into the military, from demon to hero, from lowly girl to independent woman.

Her inner struggles were believable and she showed how hard it is for women who have been embroiled in abuse for years struggle to break free. It’s not enough to be presented with truth. You have to weigh truth against the lies and be willing to not only learn but to see it fully and accept it. Once you accept you can finally begin to heal and grow and move onward and upward.

Honestly, the book is extraordinarily powerful and uplifting. I look forward to reading the remaining two works of this trilogy.

[savoryangel]

geez, that's painful but checks out. being asian in the 80s was tough

lots of east asians have tan/olive skin!!! just because pale skin is the beauty ideal and is what's most depicted in east asian media, doesn't mean that all east asians are naturally fair-skinned. omg how are you gonna make someone named "lou jitsu/yoshi" blonde?? that is so crazy 😨

lou jitsu's fully fluent in english wtf! and his ethnic accent is wonderful and doesn't need to be hidden

how was lou jitsu replaced with a white man??? who was he? don't tell me that white man did yellowface

media where an asian man is 1.) the lead—not a supporting character and 2.) a hero are important because they're not roles given to asian men in amercia. you'd think it'd be appreciated rep. i also wonder if lou jitsu's films had romance in them as asian men are typically viewed/portrayed as being the bottom of the dating pool and are desexualized in america, unlike asian women. this was EVEN MORE prevelant in the 70s and 80s and 90s. it'd be great for lou jitsu to challenge that bias

yeah! I’m glad they tackle on the treatment on bipoc actors in the film industry, it feels accurate and still goes on today with other influential people !! I KNOWWWW IT WAS BAFFLING SEEING HIM BLONDE LIKE HOW DID YOU FUCK UP THAT BAD?? 😨 ANNDD YESSSS,, there was no need of his voice to be dubbed over he speaks English VERY FLUENTLY,,,, and his voice is very lovely as it is <3

To answer your question he was replaced 2 times!! (I just remembered about the storyboard I’m gonna mention rn😭 ) so there was gonna be a reboot of Lou Jitsu based on this storyboard panel that was scrapped. There isn’t much info about who was gonna be casted but it just leaves a bad taste in my mouth that he gets replaced while he’s missing???

Yoshi used to have many dojos around New York but after his disappearance, it has been taken over by his rivel actor Khristoff Van Branford who happens to white. He views Yoshi to be irrelevant, a “scene-stealer” and a “whiny bellyacher” whatever that means. It may be out of jealousy of how successful he was. Tho he hasn’t done any raunchy things rather than just him taking over his dojos and his past with him feel,, racially motivated.

I’m not entirely sure if there was any romance in his films since most of films are mentioned by the name or just show a small fight scene. Though he did HAVE SEVERAL EXES during his career if that counts but we don’t know much about them except for big mama. He did co-star with Tang Shen who happened to be Yoshi’s love interest in other interactions in tmnt but it’s unknown what relation status rather than acquaintances in rise since she’s only shown once

I hope that answers all anon !! <3 I’ll get to the next question

[mk-wizard]

This is the very last thing I’ll say on this subject.

Don’t accuse someone of being a bigot of any kind because they don’t like race/gender/religion/orientation/etc-bending. Most of us don’t like it BECAUSE we support that group. In fact, a lot of watch/read media of that group, admire artists of that group and have dears friends and family of that group. We don’t agree with bending because we know too well that these are people who deserve better representation that just painting over a white straight Christian male.

Calling someone a bigot is a serious accusation and it is a very low blow when the person clearly isn’t that. Not agreeing with someone for good reason is not bigoted. It’s an opinion and I know many people don’t like to hear this because I hate being the girl to say it, but some ideas in fiction really do stink and we can do better especially for the group we’re trying to make look good. If they’re worth our time, they’re worth our love and they are.

THIS is why I’m not and never will be sorry for saying “bending” stinks. And for the record...

I’m a huge Miles Morales aka the next Spider-Man fan.

I think Kamala Khan Ms. Marvel has potential and killing her was spiteful writing.

While I think the Disney versions should be respected, I see nothing wrong with a BIPOC Little Mermaid, Peter Pan and such when done right.

If a character’s appearance has never been confirmed (like with most characters in novels) and it could make sense, the character can possibly be BIPOC.

I see nothing wrong with adaptations that go their own way as long as they are well written.

I want Vixen, Cyborg, Jon Stewart Green Lantern, Bumblebee, the Prowler, Miles Morales Spider-Man, North Star and more minority heroes to FINALLY get their time to shine and on their own two feet.

I see nothing wrong with the descendent of an existing character being BIPOC or mixed or vice versa.

Samuel Jackson is a blue moon case when he played Nick Fury, but he was a damn beautiful bright blue moon.

I love Sho from Netflix Voltron and I was happy to see him finally get a happily ever ever (he’s gay and married on screen, and even KISSED).

Ruby and Sapphire who are both females are one of my favourite couples.

One of the favourite webcomics right now is Court of Roses by @nintendonut1 which has tons of LGBT+ characters and romances.

I’m also a huge Black Panther fan and his movie still is one of the best modern superhero movies I’ve ever seen.

I also think Wakanda Forever is one of the better modern superhero sequels.

I think the Blade trilogy is right up there beside the classic Superman and Batman films.

On NCIS Los Angeles, Fatima is one of my favourite characters.

And it was not just one, but TWO black YouTubers who convinced me how detrimental “bending” is to the very groups you’re trying to represent.

I’m a devout Christian who is 100% convinced that the Lord Christ came to Earth as a BIPOC man.

I think all cultures deserve respect which is why I believe good casting matters. I would NEVER cast a white person to play a Native American, an African warrior or so on, but I also would not cast a BIPOC person to play the part of King Arthur or the Greek God Zeus. I am sure the actors are stellar, but seeing them pretend to be another colour is uncomfortable and pretty ridiculous.

So no. I am not a bigot of any flavor. I am an artist who holds art to a high standard because it is supposed to represent life. When it represents it cheaply, I hate it.

Black HR Professionals: Unsung Heroes For Diversity Job Boards Canada

Canada is a multicultural nation full of diverse people. But if you are a job seeker and belong to BIPOC community, then it becomes a little tough to get a job in Canada. But do you know that there is a divorce job board in Canada that has Black HR professionals? These HRs are responsible for hiring fair and talented individuals irrespective of their caste, religion, and skin colour.

Why Black HR are considered heroes?

Diversity job boards in Canada give preference to Black HR as they feel it as personal. They know the struggle behind getting a job by having all the qualities but still getting unselected just because you are different from others in terms of colour. So these job boards hire these professionals because they know the worth of these fresh and talented candidates. They know that these freshers can take their reach to the highest point of success.

Diversity Job Boards Canada

Diversity Job Boards Canada are playing the role of an interconnection between the Black HRs and the common people. Black HR professionals hire the people from indigenous communities and let their dreams come true.

Responsibilities Of Black HR

Finding the best: These professionals make direct contact with BIPOC communities and give them a chance to rise their careers. They ensure that the candidates they select are talented, skilled, and have enough knowledge of their subject.

Cultural diversity: Sometimes, these HRs go far beyond the skills and education, focusing on cultural, diversity, and inclusion.  

Helpful Hints: Black HR workers don't just hire people; they also mentor and help job candidates reach their career goals, among other things.

It's hard to say enough about how important these people are to candidates from Canada's local or BIPOC organisations. They are narrowing the gap in Canada between people who are suited for high-profile jobs and those who aren't as qualified. 

It was a great job by the Diversity Job Board to hire these people. They not only hire these smart friends, but they also make sure they are heard and that their skills are valued. In turn, they help them build a bright and stable future for themselves.

Magic Circles: A magic circle is a circle of space marked out by practitioners of some branches of magic. They generally believe it will contain energy and form a sacred space. They believe it will also provide them a form of magical protection. Special powers that rely on the power of traced shapes and diagrams to function. Almost always a circular design. Comes with additional shapes of varying complexity inside the circle. Sometimes only required for a special ceremony. Sometimes necessary for anything and everything remotely magical.  It is a form of hermetic magic. Geometric magic usually sets itself up as a type of functional magic. It is frequently paired with ritual magic. Its instant runes when the magic seems to spawn the shapes rather than the other way around. Instant runes are generally involved anyway as the activation of the shape may cause writing to appear. Magic using wands, mage sticks, scepters, & broomsticks summon magic circles that are geometric magic. More complicated geometric magic designs are required for more complicated forms of magic. They are called arrays. The more detailed the array and the more stable the magic. The bigger the magic circle the more powerful the magic effect is. There are different geometric shapes depending on the class of magic the caster is using. There are several known variations. Some correspond to the major schools of magic and some to magical specialization. Combining geometric shapes leads to more complex forms of magic. The most powerful of spells use sacred geometry. His/her/their magic circles radiate or shine cardinal, sapphire, obsidian, opal, amethyst, emerald, gold, or silver.

Base of Operations:

Castle inside a fortress as the High Elder of a Guardian Guild, a Knight Order and Paladin Order. Small buildings populate the grounds as dwellings for workers of the fortress. There are structures outside the bastion that offer a safe home to all those in need. A handful of waterfalls flow into various small rivers and provide the precious farm fields of farmers outside the castle with needed water. Lush fields of crops surround the castle walls and provide the inhabitants with food all year round. Various large houses are scattered outside the castle gates. Surprisingly the rich and middle class are comfortable with living outside the gates as well.  The walls of the bastion have openings for artillery, archers, & anti-siege weaponry. Trees grow close to the castle gates and provide it with valuable wood for all sorts of purposes. Stylish grand windows are scattered here and there around the walls of the castle in seemingly perfect symmetrical patterns. Fifteen thin square towers are a decoration aspect of this elegant castle. The castle is defended by towering four colossal round outposts made out of granite that form a protective barrier all around the castle. The outposts of this citadel are surrounded by eight guard posts made of obsidian. The guard posts have been built on various tactical spots for an ideal defense. The guard posts of this castle are each surrounded by fifteen guard towers. The guard towers dominate the skyline of these guard posts and are connected by tall thick walls made of basalt and stone. The fortress itself is defended by ten forts. Huge statues of heroes of the past decorate the castle inside. They are memories of glories of the past. The castle is built into a mountain surrounded by a forest. The forest was defended by magical creatures. The guard posts, guard towers, forts, & outposts that protect the castle are built into plains, hills, valleys, and fields. Huge dragon bones litter the forests and small wyvern and drake carcasses litter the fields and hills outside the castle. This castle has clearly been around for at least a thousand years. But it doesn't seem like it will collapse any time soon. This castle has clearly stood the test of time. This castle has been improved and improved over the ages. Some parts of the castle are clearly newer than others. The inhabitants are determined to keep their castle as modern as possible. This castle shows signs of expansion as some parts are clearly built more recently than others. The inhabitants are already working on another part and hope to keep expanding. The fortress has a huge gate with a vast gate with huge metal doors connected to a draw bridge built over a moat filled with aquatic magical animals that protects the bastion. These strong defenses give a safe place to rest in this forest stronghold. It's the only easy way in for any other side would be futile. Six strong square towers form a protective barrier all around the fortress. They are connected by towering, thin walls made of obsidian. Wide windows are scattered here and there across the fortress walls in an asymmetric pattern along with symmetric holes for archers, anti-siege weapons, and artillery. A sizable gate with giant metal doors, a regular bridge and various artillery equipment guards the last stronghold along this shoreline that the fortress is built into. But it's not the only way in when you know the fortress’s secret passages. Remnants of broken siege engines litter the area outside the fortress. Bodies, broken swords and shields, & dead mounts litter the fields outside. As a painful reminder of a past war. This fortress is relatively new but so far it stood its ground with ease and it'll likely do so for ages to come.

Vanguard Guild Hall as the Guild Grandmaster of Vanguard an S rank Adventuring Guild and Guild Order.  The Vanguard Guild had an emblem of swords and rifles in front of a sigil of a shield. This guild is designed expressly for those who battle monsters, hunt treasure in dungeons, and go on quests. The guild’s members were trained at a university founded by the guild. This guild will be dynamic. They are always looking for new opportunities. It may be willing to back more risky ventures in return for a share of the profits. It may even sponsor adventuring parties. The guild hall of the guild included a reception desk, a meeting room, training room, meeting room for guild leaders and VIP like royalty and other important people, treasury, market, dorms for apprentices and trainees, trading hall with traders, trophy room, war room, an arena, a library, workbenches, a brothel, barracks, chemistry lab for alchemists, offices for guild staff, magical lab for scientists, workshop, amphitheatre, common room, forge for blacksmiths and artificers, furnace, conference room for guild staff, emporium with merchants, auction room, a quest board, a bank, a notice board, hospital, pub for associates who aren’t members of the guild, mount stable, aviary, game room, archive room, mess hall, rooms with private wardrobes, storage room, warehouse, a tavern bar, kitchen, an armory, shrine for warlocks, chapel for clerics, & a dungeon for temporary prisoners. The guild had a grand hall. In the grand hall of the guild was a charter which is essentially a list of rules or values outlining the guild’s purpose and mission. The guild had a code of ethics. This addressed the overall behavior of a member, business practices, & product quality. In the reception hall of the guild was a list of requirements for admission and initiation. The guild’s standing and reputation in the community was excellent. The guild hall was a place where the guild showed off its accumulated power and wealth. The guild building had lodging and work areas for guild members and adventurers. It had a grand hall with ornate architecture and high ceilings. It was an obvious way for a powerful organization to quietly brag to all those who witnessed it. Tapestries hung on the walls in the color of the guild. The guild hall was three stories tall. The skylights at the top let light filter in the guild grand hall giving dramatic ambiance at any time of day. The guild had an underground room for secret meetings. The guild is led by a single president and overseen by a group of board members. An adventurers guild is an excellent spot for members to relax, share tales of their exploits, pick up rumors of missions within the city, hear gossip of loot in dungeons, and meet with prospective employers. Many people looking to hire adventurers come to an adventurers guild first. People can easily acquire adventuring hirelings or cohorts through the guild or hire freelance mercenaries through a mercenary company. The guild keeps track of its members' abilities. They often direct potential employers to the guild member or adventurer party that best fits their needs. Members must keep the guild apprised of their abilities and notify the guild when they are undertaking an adventure or quest. They are not required to accept any job offers the guild might point their way, but constant refusal of employment might eventually upset the guild grandmasters. Finally, members must be willing, if asked, to embark on a quest to rescue missing guild members. Finally, all members are expected to pay the guild 10% of the value of any treasure or goods they find on their adventures. In addition to the regular monthly dues. A guild is an organization formed to protect the interests and pursuits of people involved in the same general trade or activity. Within that broad definition a guild can appear in countless different forms. Such as large or small, weak or powerful, & public or secretive. Joining a guild is a simple enough prospect. One simply approaches it and petitions for membership. There you can find other information about the guild, such as its general membership requirements, operating procedures, and so on. A more covert association, such as a thieves or assassins guild, might require more investigation. Some secret societies are so well hidden that the party must seek out clues through investigation and adventuring. It is also possible that if someone has obtained fame that the relevant guild might approach them directly themselves through a representative. This is a relatively rare occurrence. Some guilds have additional requirements such as passing initiation rites or being a certain rank. Most guilds gain the bulk of their income through entry fees and membership dues. Most guilds provide a standard set of benefits available to all members. While they might vary slightly in specifics. They are generally the same from one guild to the next.  A guild subsidizes the cost of goods, supplies, and services related to its chosen field. Thereby reducing the price to a member by 10 to 15%. A guild can provide monetary loans to members who have fallen on hard times. Should they fail to meet the deadline. Then they are suspended or on probation at the very least or at the most expelled from the guild. The most obvious drawback to guild membership is the monthly dues. While most adventurers should have little problem earning this much money, a slow month can cause problems. A member in good standing might be given one month's leeway, but if they fail to pay their dues including back-dues by then they are suspended and put on probation. A member in bad standing after failing to pay back dues several times is expelled. Additionally, many guilds have enemies or rivals among the other guilds of the city. Guild members have certain responsibilities which they must perform in order to maintain their standing. In some cases these are fairly minor. Such as keeping the guild apprised of certain topics. In others, this responsibility might involve donating a percentage of earnings as membership dues. Other times it is seeking guild permission to undertake certain actions. An individual who fails to pay their dues or perform their duties for more than two consecutive months is expelled from the guild. Similarly, a member who compromises the guild in some manner is also expelled. Expulsion results in the immediate loss of all benefits gained from the guild. Guilds have a lot of power and influence. Guild membership can be an attractive prospect. Though most small guilds appeal only to characters who stand to gain from belonging, rather than the adventuring party as a whole. Small and weak guilds often do little more than provide members with a place to belong and perhaps a bit of financial support). Influential and powerful guilds control entire economic markets and might even guide the course of their local government. The municipal government cannot afford to alienate the guild giving it substantial leverage to make demands. A guild that becomes this powerful often fixes prices, drafts legislation favorable to it, or dominates markets otherwise unrelated to its pursuits. They played an integral part in magical society. They play a big part in the economies of the cities, counties, & countries that they inhabit. Guilds can provide so much more than a healthy economy and a prosperous working class. Guilds have had an enormous impact on the economy of the territory it covered. These are the organizations that can offer experience and resources. They can be a benevolent ally, a training ground, or a client. A guild is a corporation, a union, & a cartel. This guild has a bureaucratic setup. The best way to hide a glyph of protection is by sheer scale. This is done through facets of a planned city such as walls, streets, lights, sewers, & buildings. This glyph of protection goes through the entire country. This glyph of protection protects the town, city, & kingdom that the Guild Order is inside of. The symbol passes unnoticed to all but only to a select few of powerful magic users who are grand magisters. It is later forgotten completely by the general public. It is discovered in blueprints and through birds eye view of airships, planes, or flying mounts. It is geometric magic that is hidden in plain sight that is a protection spell for the location. Built alongside the glyph of protection is a giant magic circle that channels energy for the magic users of the guild and adventuring guild. 

Hidden away beyond the mountains in a kingdom in the clouds held up by magic is his/her/their own personal magic tower as a grand magister of the circle of magi, magical society, and the magic council. A Circle of Magi consists primarily of spellcasters, but occasionally boasts non-casting members such as alchemists. Magicians, wizards, sorcerers, witches, necromancers, & warlocks make up most of the members. These magical councils offer comfortable and well-stocked libraries for research, and laboratories for experimentation. Perhaps more important is that they offer an environment where casters can exchange ideas and theories. Or simply a place where they can interact with those who actually understand them. The Circle of Magi is a magocracy and faction. A magocracy is a form of government where only those with ability in magic could wield power and influence. The magocracy of the Circle of Magi is a bureaucratic organization that touches nearly every corner of the Federation of Aehinara of the Alliance and the Legion. It is essentially a government in a government. Its citizens are the billions of users of magic in the Federation. Arcane councils are also valuable as political leverage in cities where governments or common folk love magic as magical humans, homo magi, & Indigenous magical humans make up a magical society. The circle of magi is a faction of an esoteric society of arcane spellcasters governed by a magical council. The magical council easily rivals the rulers. The Circle of Magi is the main ruling body of the entire magical world of Homo Magi, magical humans, & Indigenous magical humans. The Circle of Magi is the primary governing body of many of the kingdoms, empires, & nations of the Federation of Aehinara. The Circle of Magi magical council acts as a leading government. The magical council is governed by a magical parliament and magical congress of a house of representatives and senate. The magical parliament consists of a house of commons of a council of elders and a house of lords of a council of high elders. This magical government is led by an executive branch of a Grand Magister. These 11 high elders are elites that specialize within the schools of magic. Such as abjuration, alteration, conjuration, divination, enchantment, evocation, illusion, necromancy, transfiguration, and transmutation. The 11 high elders are indifferent to the thoughts and concerns of non magicals. The magical council's laws are made to suit the powerful and magical. They enforce a powerful monopoly on key aspects of magical society. The nobility of Aehinara often have magical or sorcerous bloodlines. Many of the past and present 11 of the magical council high elders have come from the bickering magical noble families. Many elders who are council members are looking for ways to increase their power, influence, control, & supremacy over the 11 high elder members of the Magical Council. The 11 high elders gained their positions of the magical council through various means. Some through the lineage of well known magical ancestors. Some through being an apprentice of an old master. Others were valedictorians of magical academies. Others were heroes in wars as magical users. The magical council became an arm of the rulers’ of the magical human kingdoms and leaders of the Indigenous magical human nations power base as a separate branch of the military. They provide intelligence, security, and act as a branch of the military as magical soldiers. The Circle of Magi is a governing body of the magical community. They are responsible for regulating and enforcing laws for the magical community. They are responsible for keeping the magical community safe from the non magical community. On the ground it has several bastions that protect it from invasion. The forts themselves are protected by outposts, guard posts, & guard towers. The magical tower has an unique design and layout tailored to his/her/their personality. The magical tower has an alchemist laboratory where alchemists can brew potions, concoctions, potions, & elixirs. It has a workshop for artificers. The magic tower comes with a personal study for wizards. It has a witch cauldron for a witch coven to brew and concoct elixirs, potions, antidotes, brews, & concoctions. It has a large collection of magical lore. It has an archive of magical artifacts. It has a large library of scrolls, manuscripts, parchments, tomes, & books. It has an arena for duels between magic users. It has a stable for mounts. It has an arena for duels between fighters. It has a training arena for apprentices. It has an astronomy tower with an observatory. It has apartments and homes for workers. It has a herbology garden. It has a maze with stone, rock, & metal golem guards. It has secret passages. It has a garden protected by a wood elemental, stone elemental, & nature elemental. It has a crafting lab to craft, repair, and upgrade equipment. It has an armory with weapons, armor, & shields. It has a treasure room with loot that he/she/they found from inside dungeons as an adventurer and quests as a guild member. It has a factory to create automatons. It has a viewing room magic mirror to scry on others. It has a room with a table with a crystal ball and tarot cards for cartomancy and divination for fortune telling. It has a summoning and banishing room for his/her/their patron as a warlock. It is even bigger on the inside because of spatial magic. It is interconnected with other spires that connect to other magical towers. The magic tower is hidden away by illusions. The only way to reach it is by a portal network system. When an intruder attempts to access the portal when they aren’t supposed to it seals access from the portal network off. The magical tower is built on a magical leyline. It is built with a defense matrix. The magic tower is full of traps that deal with intruders. The magic tower has a room with magically bound guard monsters. The magic tower is defended against magic users with anti magic fields. The magical tower itself is protected by wards and charms and attacks intruders with hexes and curses. High King/High Queen of the Alliance and Coalition and leader of the Federation of Ahinara. The Alliance or Coalition represents everything good, lawful, tolerant, and progressive in the world. Self-proclaimed or otherwise. This is both an alliance between species and a coalition between nations. The ideals of the alliance are freedom, prosperity, and the security of its people. The alliance was organized by the heroic and righteous High King of the magical humans and Indigenous magical humans and the wise Dark Elven Empress of the Elven Empire. Who gets to define who’s good, lawful, and civilized in the world is an entirely different matter as history written by the victors and truth is defined by the powerful.

As an Afro Asian Native a red, gold, & green Ryu Dragon Qilin or Kirin. A qilin or kirin is a distant relative of the unicorn and dragons. They generally range in fantastic bright cooling colors like teal, azure, silver and or amethyst. A fantastic beast which rides on storm clouds and across the night sky of a full moon. They have a central horn like a unicorn and antlers like a caribou. They have a body similar to a horse. With scales and the tail of a dragon. They have wild fantastic manes of silver or gold. They wander the world eternally free with the winds but they also enjoy finding the most isolated and secluded forests of the north and sleeping upon the trees. These fantastic beasts can serve as great allies and mounts. A hero who has one as a mount is the envy of an entire kingdom, nation, federation, confederacy, or empire. They are wise and give council at times. They also love to whistle like birds, speak to forest beasts, sing folk songs, or ask riddles. They are incredibly curious creatures by nature. Generally qilin or kirin are wild wanders but they are also incredibly noble creatures. They will come to the aid of distraught beasts and peasants after they have saved the helpless victims. They will gladly take any small token of appreciation but then leap into the clouds and vanish back to their wild whimsical journey across the world. When angered the qilin or kirin flies into a noble vengeance with lightning striking its enemies and it heroically charges into its foes kicking and stabbing them with its antlers and horn. Most enemies are left charred corpses. Others suffer grievous burns and injuries from the kirin and flee. Since the quilin or kirin has a sense of honor they might let honorable foes flee with their life like mountain tigers. People view these beasts as divine entities from the heavens. People view these noble animals as guardians of the downtrodden and poor. But Some Kirin are also evil or neutral and uncaring and their colors change to dark reds, greens or violets. Sometimes even shimmering black. These Kirin are corrupted and generally serve evil wu jen sorcerers, tyrants, and bloodthirsty pirates. There are other types of Qilin or Kirins such as the Ryu kirin aka the Dragon Kirin and the Aisu kirin or Ice Kirin. Dragon Kirins are generally vivid bright warm colors like emerald green, scarlet red, bronze orange, and yellow gold. They have a more Ryu dragon like appearance. Aisu kirin are generally dark blues, silver and or dark purple and appear more like a caribou. Generally these beasts have very similar abilities but it is said that they have different elementals being either fire or ice. It is said that the Aisu kirin can create a freezing wind wall around itself. The Ryu Kirin are famous for breathing fire and blinding smoke on it's foes.

As a knight and paladin. An alicorn mount, a pegasus mount, & a unicorn mount. 

A white alicorn mount. An alicorn is a winged unicorn.  Good deities placed alicorns and unicorns to ward away evil. They also placed them to preserve and protect sacred places. Most alicorns and unicorns protect a bounded realm such as an enchanted forest. However, the gods sometimes send an alicorn or unicorn to guard sacred artifacts or protect specific creatures. When the forces of darkness strike against an individual the gods wish to protect. They might send that individual to an alicorn’s and unicorn's forest where evil creatures pursue at their peril. Unicorns and alicorns often serve deities of the forest and woodlands including the gods of benevolent fey. Although all unicorns and alicorns have natural healing power. Some serve the gods in greater capacities performing miracles normally reserved for high priests. An alicorn’s and unicorn's horn is the focus of its power. A shard of divine magic wrought in spiraling ivory. Wands of alicorn and unicorn horn channel powerful magic. While alicorn and unicorn horn weapons strike with divine force. Wizards can work powdered unicorn horn into potent potions and scroll ink or use it as a component in eldritch rituals. However, any creature that takes a role, no matter how small, in slaying a unicorn is likely to become the target of divine retribution. These things must be given freely by the alicorn or unicorn with their consent. When darkness and evil threaten to overwhelm the mortal world the gods sometimes see fit to pair an alicorn mount with a champion. A paladin astride an alicorn is a sign of the gods' direct intervention in the affairs of the mortal realm. It is a holy alliance made to cleave the heads from demons and banish devils back to the Nine Hells. As long as the troubled times of darkness persist the alicorn stays by the champion. Its horn shining brightly to drive back the night. However, if the gods' champion falls from grace or turns from the cause of righteousness and good, the alicorn departs never to return.

A blue unicorn mount. A unicorn was a mysterious and majestic magical beast resembling a horse with a horn protruding from its forehead. Unicorns dwell in enchanted forests. Unrelated to the horses it resembles a unicorn is a celestial creature that wanders sylvan realms. Its white form glimmering like starlight. A unicorn's brow sports a single spiraling horn of ivory whose magical touch can heal the sick and the injured. It knows the tongues of elves, fae, & sylvan folk. Unicorns allow good-hearted creatures to enter their woods to hunt or gather food but they hold evil ever at bay. Foul-hearted creatures seldom leave a unicorn's domain alive. A unicorn's forest is a celestial realm where nothing that occurs escapes the creature's notice. A unicorn hears each breathy tune sung by the elves that reside amid the treetops. It senses where every caterpillar spins its cocoon, each leaf and branch upon which a bright butterfly rests its tired wings. In a unicorn's forest a sense of calm pervades. From wolves and foxes, to birds, squirrels, and tiny insects. The creatures of a unicorn's domain seem quite tame. Pixies, sprites, satyrs, dryads, and other fey loyally serve a unicorn when they dwell within its woods. Under a unicorn's protection these creatures feel safe from the threat of encroaching civilization and the malicious spread of evil. A unicorn roams its domain constantly moving ever so carefully so as not to disturb other denizens. A creature might catch a passing glimpse of the unicorn then suddenly see nothing but the wild woods. A unicorn has deep blue, violet, or gold eyes. A typical adult unicorn grows to 8 feet in length, stands 5 feet high at the shoulder, and weighs 1,200 pounds. Females are slightly smaller and slimmer than males. Unicorns speak Sylvan, Fae, Elvish, and Common. Unicorns attacked primarily by impaling foes on their horns although they could also use their hooves as weapons. Unicorns dwelt deep within their forests. They shunned most creatures only conferring with fey such as pixies, fairies, dryads, elves, and sprites. They usually showed themselves only in defense of their forests. They scratched glyphs into the bark of trees in the areas under their protection. Unicorns mated for life. This unicorn had blue skin and violet eyes. It had a gold unicorn horn. The horn was two feet long. 

A black pegasus mount. The  winged horses known as pegasi soar through the skies. They are a vision of grace and majesty. When they touch down on solid ground they linger only for a moment drinking from mountain springs and pristine lakes. Any sound or sign of another creature startles them, sending them off to fly once more among the clouds. Pegasi are highly prized as swift and reliable steeds. Being faster and less temperamental than griffons, hippogriffs, and wyverns. However, these wild and shy creatures are as intelligent as humanoids. So they can't be traditionally broken and tamed. Although intelligent, a pegasus requires training before it can bear a rider in combat. To be trained, a pegasus must have a friendly attitude toward the trainer.  The pegasus is a magnificent winged horse that sometimes serves the cause of good. Though highly prized as aerial steeds, pegasi are wild and shy creatures not easily tamed. A pegasus must be persuaded to serve a good-aligned creature as a mount, but when it does so it forges a life-long bond with its new companion. Pegasi, at first glance, resembled mere horses with large bird-like wings. Despite this, they had other avian features as well. Their forelegs had fur. Their lower legs were feathered instead of furred. Their manes and tails were also of feathers.  Being wild and shy magical creatures, pegasi were not easily tamed and ridden. A pegasus would serve as an aerial steed only to a good-natured humanoid. In any case they will strongly be opposed to wearing a saddle. The most common way they were trained was after being raised from birth. Though sometimes a grown pegasus might be tamed with a friendly attitude to the tamer. Making a worthy steed and mount indeed. This pegasus was trained since birth and wears a black saddle as a mount. Once tamed, a pegasus formed a bond with their rider obeying their commands. If the rider became evil after it tamed a pegasus the pegasus rejected them.  A typical Pegasus stands 6 feet high at the shoulder, weighs 1,500 pounds, and has a wingspan of 20 feet. Pegasi can speak and understand Elvish and Common. Pegasus usually have white hides and white wings. This one had a black hide and black wings. 

A sea unicorn. A sea unicorn is a unicorn hippocampus. When traveling underwater they used a sea unicorn or unicorn hippocampus mount to swim underwater. They had the body of a horse, a scaly fish's tail, and fins. Instead of a usual horse’s hooves or a mane. Their front sides were covered with small scales with larger scales at the rear. Their skin was colored with ivory, blue, or green shades. Hippocampi could breathe either salty or fresh water through their gills. They could even breathe normal air for a short period of time with their lungs. They were also proficient in swimming and deep diving moving very swiftly. Being wild and desiring to keep their free spirit hippocampi were not easily tamed, but they could be trained to carry and fight with a rider as a mount. Being good creatures and skilled judges of character they would more commonly serve good causes and refuse to assist any creature they considered evil or hostile. They were excellent racers and good mounts. They served as a favored steed for sea elves. They were the allies and companions of merfolk, nymphs, sirens, & tritons. They are the enemy of weresharks. They could even be the special mount of an aquatic paladin. Hippocampi lived in pods made up of three stallions and around twenty mares. In each pod, a stallion is designated as leader through custom and rituals. Each stallions had its own harem that are compound with mare that had chosen to join it and remain in it for life generally. They would often ally with tritons, sea elves, nymphs, & merfolk which in return would keep the hippocampi's eggs in their castle. In case of great danger or crisis, several pods could gather to join their effort against a common threat. A gathering of this sort could be a compound of thousands of hippocampus. Hippocampi were generally known to speak their own language as well as Aquan. Though like any intelligent creature they were capable of learning others if properly trained. Among aquatic mounts, they were considered to be one of the most prized. 

As a fighter. They had a griffin mount and a hippogriff mount. 

A gold and brown griffin or gryphon mount. A griffon is a ferocious avian carnivore with the muscular body of a lion. It has the head, forelegs, and wings of an eagle. An adult griffon was about 10 feet long, with a wingspan of 25 feet, & weighed about 1,500 lbs. Griffons were known to be somewhat intelligent creatures though they had a penchant for aggression. Young griffons were generally not combative. Griffons typically made their nests in homes in high rocky places like cliffs as well as open caverns set in hills and mountain regions. They did this so that their young could be safe from those who would seek to steal them and use them as mounts. When acquainted with humans, they were usually stabled in airy, door-less stone halls  vaguely resembling their lairs. When tamed and raised at a young age they could become very loyal and fierce mounts. Because of this they were highly sought after.

A black and white hippogriff mount. A hippogriff is a legendary animal that has the head, wings, & fore legs of an eagle. It has the body, tail, and hindquarters of a horse. Hippogriffs had the body of a horse. With the wings and head of an eagle. Their forelegs ended in sharp talons similar to those found in birds of prey, while their hind legs had hooves. The average hippogriff was 9 feet long, with a wingspan of 20 feet, and weighed about 1,000 lbs. Their hides would be colored russet, golden tan, or come in a variety of browns with differently shaded feathers. Their beaks were either ivory or golden yellow. Hippogriffs were capable of expressing more complex emotions as well as feeling grief and crying. Hippogriffs were reclusive in behavior, seldom traveling far from their nest. Hippogriffs were extremely territorial and would attack any intruders in their realm defending their mate or young until death. They attacked by diving and attacking with their claws, hooves, & beak. Though regarded as clumsy attackers, flocks of hippogriffs could attack in concert. They could kill large prey such as deer, elk, bison, & moose. They were even capable of carrying it away in their talons. Being omnivores, they did not always have to resort to such tactics. They had an omnivorous diet and would hunt humanoids as often as any other meal. Hippogriffs were frequently preyed upon by drakes, dragons, and wyverns. Hippogriffs were highly prized as aerial steeds. They live in temperate to tropical hills in areas where it is particularly flat and barren allowing them quick and easy access to the skies. Because they were not as intelligent as griffons. A friendly attitude from the hippogriff to the rider or tamer was not required. But they still require a specialized saddle and appropriate training. 

As a magic user. A battle dragon, a crested felldrake, a guard drake, & a wyvern. 

A Battle Dragon. Battle dragons were fierce and brave dragons who took immense joy in fighting glorious battles. The scales of battle dragons changed in appearance depending on the dragon's activities. If at rest, they had a dull brown color. They became bright golden when the dragon was flying, allowing sunlight to reflect from them. Other variants existed with green-tinted scales and ruby and golden tips. They also displayed sharp horns that protruded from the back of their heads and from several extremities. Battle dragons' wings were large and brilliantly patterned. From a very young age, battle dragons were trained to take pleasure in the art of fighting. They could be found alone or in families as they raised their young. Clutches of young battle dragons were also commonly found.  Many communities forged long-standing alliances with battle dragon families for mutual assistance and protection. So that several generations of riders could count on generations of the same line of dragon allies.  Fearless and optimistic, battle dragons found great pleasure in simple armed conflict. They were capable of finding positive sides in any situation. No matter how grim, an ability that made them great inspiring forces and morale boosters within an army.  It was also common for battle dragons to serve as mounts for humanoid combatants.  When in combat, battle dragons fought fiercely while also providing support and encouragement to their allies. They could sing chants that inspired courage in their armies much like bards. Battle dragons could enter a furious battle rage, dealing devastating damage to their enemies.

A Guard Drake. An adult winged drake. Guard drakes were large reptiles that were created by a magical ritual involving dragon scales. They were loyal allies to their masters and could be quickly trained to follow simple commands. Guard drakes resembled the type of dragon they were created from in appearance except stunted and wingless with a squat and muscular build. These creatures were territorial and obedient. They could be trained to perform tasks typically associated with watchdogs, guard dogs, & attack dogs. In combat, the main weapons employed by a guard drake were its bite, claws, and strong tail. It also shared some of the traits of the original dragon. Such as a natural resistance to acid if created from black dragon scales. Lightning and thunder, coming from blue dragon scales. Poison, if coming from a purple dragon. Fire, lava, & magma if coming from a red dragon. Snow, ice, & frost if coming from a white dragon. This drake was created with mechanical prosthetic wings. This guard drake was a chimera of several dragon scales.  

Fell Drake. They were a type of fell drake often employed as guards by elves. Crested fell drakes were wingless draconic creatures with muscular hindlegs and a bright crest on the head. Like all fell drakes, crested fell drakes were good at heart, fierce, and loyal enough to defend their masters to the death. Crested fell drakes often lived alongside elves and acted as guards of settlements or border patrols. Their loyalty meant they were excellent pets and protectors.  Wild clutches of crested fell drakes were sometimes dominated by a rage drake. The fell drakes traced their origin to the dragon god Bahamut who created them to protect elves after a group of elven mages helped the Platinum Dragon turn back a demonic invasion. Fell drakes were carnivorous creatures that preferred to live in temperate plains, hills, or forests. Their snaky bodies also made them well-suited for underground expeditions that elves were averse to. On their own in the wild fell drakes congregated in clutches of 3-5 individuals. They are occasionally known to live alongside other fell drake subspecies or in groups dominated by a single rage drake. Though a bit difficult to manage, some humanoids besides elves such as humans, goblinoids, & kobolds were known to have domesticated fell drakes and trained them to act as mounts, pets, guard dogs, attack dogs, & hunting dogs.  This fell drake was a chimera of a rage drake, a horned fell drake, a crested fell drake, & a spitting fell drake.

A red wyvern. A young adult wyvern. Wyverns were used as mounts by various races and cultures.  These creatures were typically found in areas that were favored by dragons such as jungles, deserts, tundra, forests, mountains, or large caverns.  Wyverns were fluent speakers of draconic.  Giant kin of oni, trolls, orcs, goliaths, & giants kept griffons, perytons, drakes, & wyverns as hunting birds akin to what humans and elves did with hawks, falcons, and other birds of prey. These tamed wild creatures could also be often encountered patrolling the giant kin’s garden together with other tamed predators like owlbears. Dragons, griffons, drakes, and wyverns had a fierce rivalry over hippogriff and griffin meat. Manticores, chimeras, griffons, perytons, and wyverns were territorial rivals. Wyverns can be both solitary and pack animals. They did not have a strong odor. Although their lairs often could be tracked by following the smell of their recent kills.  When fighting these creatures would dive down from above. Grabbing prey with their wings acting as hands and hind leg claws. They then attempted to sting them to death. They were also known to slash at creatures with their claws mid-flight. Their tails were so long that opponents were typically struck by a wyvern's tail before their legs.  Their sleek and strong wings and hind legs proved very useful for an attack.  These creatures varied in size. With a length from 15​ to ​35 feet, a wingspan of 20 to 50 feet, & weighing around 1 to 2 tons. They were covered in red scales. They typically had gold, scarlet, or orange eyes. Their jaws were filled with long and sharp teeth and fangs.  Unlike true dragons, wyverns only had a pair of hind legs instead of a set four. Though they used their wings like a pair of arms and hands. Their wingspan could get over 50 feet in length. Their tails were often quite long. Comprising almost half of their bodies yet very mobile. These barbed tails ended in a thick cartilage knot with a stinger protruding out of it not unlike that of a scorpion.  Telltale sounds that these creatures produced included loud hisses similar to serpents and throated growls similar to the vocalizations of alligators or crocodiles.

As an artificer. Clockwork Steed. This clockwork steed is a winged mechanical horse and winged unicorn as a winged alicorn. Gleaming gears whir and buzz in an orchestra of motion whenever this red eyed steed moves. These tireless constructs were designed by engineers as a replacement for normal horses. They can gallop ceaselessly for hours or even days if required. In addition to their endurance, clockwork steeds pack a powerful physical punch because blows from their hooves can send smaller creatures flying. Though many riders enjoy the unquestioning way that clockwork steeds accept commands from their riders, others find these steeds’ lack of personality frustrating. Unlike normal horses, a clockwork steed lacks the ability to create a bond with its rider. Clockwork chargers are constructed to wreak greater mechanized terror on the battlefield. A clockwork charger has the advanced  template and is specially equipped for enhancing mounted charges or making such charges even without a rider by way of its pivoted lance. A clockwork charger has a pivoted latch large enough to support a lance and allows even those who are not proficient with a lance to use it as if they were. Furthermore, the clockwork charger is proficient with any lance equipped in the pivot. 

As an alchemist. A Clockwork Dragon. Made from gleaming metal and countless complex cogs and gears this draconic creature has the presence of a dangerous killing machine.  The teeth and claws of a clockwork dragon are made of adamantine, mithril, & orichalcum and have the qualities of a weapon made from that material. It has greater flight capability thanks to its spell infused mithral, adamantium, & orichalcium parts. The magic wielding engineers of ancient times created marvelous clockwork creations. Like the clockwork solider, clockwork hound, clockwork spy, clockwork assassin, clockwork steed, & clockwork guardian, but few equaled the formidable power of the clockwork dragon. The construction of clockwork dragons was based on a similar design to that of the clockwork leviathan. The engineers used the leviathan as a basic chassis, borrowing the same technology to fully waterproof the creature, then further modified the clockwork monstrosity to specialize it for defense and brutal attacks. Most of the time, clockwork dragons are built to represent metallic dragons, chromatic, gem, or Asian dragons. Preserved illustrations unearthed from archaeological sites show even primal and imperial dragons influenced some designs. It is rumored that an improved version of the clockwork dragon’s design possessed a semblance of sentience having the ability to alter their programming mid mission. Other variants of clockwork dragons wield breath weapons that deal alternate forms of energy damage. The greatest example of these variants is said to be capable of blasting a line of force from its fanged mouth. Some even claim to have spotted a similar creature. That is likely a product of parallel design. A robotic creation outfitted with enhanced flight, keen senses, lasers, and self-propelled explosive devices. The engineers who first crafted these creations made use of some of the rarest elements available. This included the various sky metals and in the creation of the clockwork dragons the engineers discovered many new uses for those metals. Clockwork dragons must be wound up to perform. Though a full winding lasts much longer for these creations than other clockwork creatures they eventually use up their power and go dormant. Most clockwork dragons remain in this dormant state awaiting a fresh winding. As constructs the creatures have no true society, but many clockwork dragons were deployed with a contingent of clockwork servants to attend to their winding and repairs. Some clockwork dragons were also built with tiny compartments in their bodies that housed a dozen clockwork spies, clockwork assassins, & clockwork soldiers. A squad they could deploy during their missions so they could provide their creators with a full report of the particular action in which they were involved. Most of the time, these tiny clockwork constructs cling to the dragon while it is in action, scurrying over its metallic scales as the beast pursues its quarry. This clockwork dragon has many upgrades and is highly customizable. It is an infiltrator. These clockwork dragons are more subtle and nimble than those of other clockwork dragons. An infiltrator clockwork dragon can rearrange its movable parts into very serpentine and compact shapes. Furthermore, its parts are coated with a black noise-dampening resin. It has active camouflage to blend in with its environment like a chameleon and reflect light as adaptive camouflage. Finally, it’s infused with magic allowing it to become invisible. The infiltrator clockwork dragon’s invisibility is a supernatural ability. It is a destroyer. These clockwork dragons are used as highly mobile and powerful siege engines. It acts as a mobile battering ram, mobile ballista, mobile trebuchet, mobile catapult, mobile siege tower, mobile mortar, mobile artillery cannon, & mobile missile launcher. It can light up oil in its body and has a fire breath attack that deals fire damage and explosive damage. It has a flaming tar breath. Instead of breathing fire it can spray a 30-foot cone of flaming tar. Creatures in the area of effect take fire damage and are entangled in a thick layer of flaming tar. It also has an acid breath. Equipped with an internal fountain of caustic liquid, this type of clockwork dragon has a breath attack with a 60-foot line of acid. It has rust breath. This rust breath does not breathe fire. Instead, the creature breathes out a fine mist of an alchemical solvent that instantly rusts exposed metals. This rust breath rusts anything in a 60-foot line. These clockwork dragons are made of resistant materials immune to rusting of any form. It has a sleeping gas breath.  This clockwork dragon’s breath weapon can be used with tanks of sleep gas. When the clockwork breathes out this gas in a 30-foot cone, creatures within the cone fall asleep for several hours. Clockwork dragons with this breath weapon tend to have the infiltrator modification. These clockwork dragons excel at missions that require stealth and precision rather than brute force.

As an Alchemist: 

As an artificer they have an iron golem. The iron golem assists them in combat.  These constructs were made entirely out of iron. These constructs were bipedal  and have a humanoid shape but were stylized to suit their creator. Though they were typically built to resemble some armor their features were comparatively smoother than stone golems. It was 12 feet and weighed five tons. Iron golems are dutifully obedient to those who created them. When left in a room with no activity they stand still going into a dormant state. Like any golem these constructs possess an immunity to magic and can’t be harmed by normal weapons. However their bodies were vulnerable to rust. The strength of these constructs are three times that of any flesh golem. Much like stone golems these constructs rely on brute strength when fighting. However, unlike stone golems, an iron golem was known to wield swords, even enchanted ones that were part of its construction. Iron golems were used to guard locations or valuable items.   

Clockwork Toy Clay Golem. It was elegant and used as an art piece. Appearing as a merely beautiful figurine before being commanded by their master to move or act. 

Clockwork Songbird. This gilded mechanical bird produces melodious songs from its complex clockwork voice box. The inner workings of a clockwork songbird are made of intricately interlocked components. With the most complex machinery located in the creature’s voice box.  Marvels of machinery and musicality the clockwork songbirds are prized for the beautiful melodies they produce. Which can vary based on the songbird’s construction. These clockwork creatures often inhabit the homes and gardens of nobility where they fill opulent manors and wide-open gardens alike with their lilting songs. Both children and adults delight in clockwork songbirds. With the former seeing these mechanical creatures as amusing toys and the latter as party novelties. A clockwork songbird’s intricate mechanical voice box allows it to sing a number of songs each of which provides a distinct effect. The clockwork songbird sings a hopeful song that though somewhat piping and thin rings true across the battlefield and instills a sense of duty in the hearts of the songbird’s allies. The gentle crooning lullaby of a clockwork songbird can cause enemies to become drowsy and sleep.  The clockwork songbird can whistle a lilting melody that causes allies to feel light on their feet.

Clockwork Hobgoblin. Fashioned after a tinkerer goblin, fire goblin, & urban evolved hobgoblin. Assists them as a clockwork engineer and inventor. 

Clockwork Mechanical Gnome. Fashioned after a deep gnome, rock gnome, & forest gnome. Assists them as clockwork engineer and inventor. 

Clockwork Spider. Tiny, fast, & strong for its size a clockwork spider is a must-have for any engineer worth their salt. From walking up walls to getting keys. Clockwork spiders are delicate arachnoid constructs built for espionage. They are designed to gather delicate information from people and places important enough to be warded against conventional stealth and scrying. Spiders can record and perfectly recreate whatever sounds they hear for a short time making them ideal for capturing the secrets of powerful enemies. Clockwork spiders were used to great effect in the dark political games of kingdoms and empires before spreading to the black markets. Spiders are impossible to replicate by any but the most brilliant artificers making them a near priceless boon to any guild spy or scheming noble. 

Clockwork Hound. Clockwork hounds are designed to guard areas and track prey. This black, mechanical hunting dog keeps its nose to the ground sniffing. Gleaming teeth fill its metal mouth. Partners to the clockwork huntsmen, these black hounds follow the trails of criminals, prey animals, and other unfortunates. Their infused spirits are those of hunting hounds and their animating magic allows them to follow a scent with supernatural speed and accuracy. Some claim the infusion of animal spirits into clockwork hounds was one of the great arcane discoveries that made the creation of the gear forged possible. Certainly the earliest hounds were built for work and war. Most clockwork hounds continue to serve town watches, royal huntsmen, road wardens, moneylenders, and criminal gangs as loyal trackers and guards. Two emerald, ruby, sapphire, or amethyst crystal eyes stare out from this artificial hound’s brass, silver, bronze, gold, iron, steel, & titanium forged body. This clockwork hound is the size of a large dog. It is fashioned after a pitbull, a rottweiler, a German Shepard, an Alaskan Malamute, & a Shiba Inu. The chest cavity of a clockwork hound can be opened to expose a storage area that can hold up to 30 pounds of items. If a contained item is a magical item then the hound gains the benefits of the item as though it were wearing them. Clockwork hounds are artificial approximations of canine companions that operate much like their living counterparts but never die of natural causes. They can work in packs or alone in accordance with the instructions imparted by their operators. Whether their operators are alive or dead is of little consequence to these constructs which proceed based on the last instructions provided. Like clockwork soldiers, clockwork hounds have long activity cycles due to the lessened winding requirements of their lighter frames. Their chest cavities are used to store goods and for reinforcement. They are used primarily for delivery missions, but work equally well as retrievers. They’re occasionally used for sentry duty. They are also used for defense and are most often seen in the company of similarly tasked constructs such as clockwork soldiers, clockwork spies, clockwork assassins, & clockwork guardians. A clockwork hound stands 2 and 1/2 feet tall at its shoulders and weighs 300 pounds. A clockwork hound doesn’t require air, food, drink, or sleep.

As a sorcerer/sorceress:

Triz. Lawful evil Imp. Imps are vicious manipulative fiends that are among the weakest beings in the demon hierarchy. They are considered minor demons whose job was to assist and corrupt mortals their masters wanted groomed to the side of evil. They are hired by non demonic humanoids by summoning. Though imps could take the form of various animals. Their natural forms were two feet tall humanoids that weighed eight pounds. This imp was dark red. It flew through the air with its leathery bat-like wings. The mind of an imp is both insidious and deceitful. They delight in corrupting mortals through trickery and temptation. Imps are masters of flattery coercing others into acts of lawful evil through flattery and endearment due to lacking the intimidating presence of other demons and devils. Regardless of the fawning facade they have, imps were ultimately at the service of the devil lords and viewed their humanoid masters as tools. At the same time their obedience to their devil leaders was rooted in pragmatism rather than genuine loyalty. Even if they are always in service to another, whether devil or mortal. They were still independent creatures with ambitions larger than their small size and sycophantic demeanor. Their true wish like most devils is to advance beyond their current station and obtain a position of power. In hell imps often served as errand runners, spies, couriers, or emissaries. Imps performed many roles in the hands of mortals often as advisors, scouts, assistants, confidants, and familiars. They typically served under lawful spellcasters like wizards or warlocks or anyone seeking magical power. Mortals judged worthy of an imp received them when they tried to find a familiar. Based on the misconception that imps were weak and dutiful servants. Imps relied on their charisma, persuasion, & available resources to hasten the corruption of their targets. Imps fostered a lust for power in the hearts of their summoners by increasing their magical abilities either through helping them  acquire new spells or magical items. By spying and knowledge given to them by other devils imps obtain a large sum of arcane knowledge about esoteric subject matters.     

Chaotic evil Will o wisp. A will-o'-wisp that has taken an interest in the spellcaster and follows them of its own free will. It is mischievous and occasionally floats off for hours at a time before returning. It often zaps party members at inopportune times and lingers after fights to consume the souls of the fallen. That aside, it is still supportive of the caster and readily provides backup as a distraction during truly dire combat. It occasionally acts as a guide when the spellcaster is lost though it will sometimes play tricks on the caster in the same way. Will boost the caster's elemental attacks. 

Applejack is a neutral good Mustavel. Mustevals looked like 2 feet tall humanoid mice. They were agile and rarely stayed still. This musteval had the ability to speak with other animals. Mustevals were small agile creatures capable of climbing and burrowing. They also have keen sight, smell, & hearing. They use their cunning and small size to fight evil. Often acting as spies and messengers for more powerful celestials.  

A foot tall brass metal golem capable of following simple instructions. It makes a happy whistling sound when it completes a task. It often watches its master with great curiosity and will try to mimic them.

As a warlock:

Thellesia/Trazeth a neutral evil succubus/incubus. A nonbinary genderfluid or bigender pansexual succubi/incubi.  They have a male masculine form, a feminine female form, & an androgynous nonbinary form. Succubi/incubi are the iconic depiction of lust. Feared for their typically evil nature and ability to steal one's soul. Succubi are fiends who wield subtle illusions and enchantments to tempt their victims into forfeiting their eternal souls. These lascivious dark-winged fiends can be found in service to devils and demons. High ranking devils, arch demons, demon lords, & demon generals use these fiends to tempt mortals to perform evil acts. Others keep succubi and incubi as advisers and consorts. Succubi often live up to their reputation acting as seductive females or males to lure males and or females into relinquishing some of their life-force. Particularly adept at controlling others in the peak of their strength. They're often employed albeit reluctantly by others to act as crowd control or to tame certain creatures. Most of them share the nature of their reputation. They are flirtatious. They avoid fighting where possible instead choosing seduction or fleeing. Succubi are not warriors. They flee combat whenever they can. If forced to fight, they can attack with their claws, but they prefer to turn foes against one another. The gender-neutral term for Succubi and Incubi is usually either foocubus or concubus. Succubi/incubi in their true forms have an appearance similar to that of humans, but are horned, clawed, tailed, & winged. They are typically slender, well toned, and are very rarely overly muscular. Due to their shape shifting changeling abilities they can tweak their appearances or even change them completely to suit their needs. A succubus is a demon temptress who lures you in by seducing you. They kiss you and have sex with you until you die after they steal your life force. They existed to seduce and tempt mortals and ultimately slay them and take their life energy back to hell. The more virtuous the victim, the more rewarding it is for the succubus. When they reproduce with a mortal, the child is a cambion. When uncovered in her true form, a succubus appeared as a stunningly beautiful woman of statuesque build and perfect figure. With flawless skin and red or raven-black hair. Incubi, meanwhile, appeared as perfect male members of whatever race they were working with. Succubi/incubi they also had clawed fingers and large dark-hued or reddish bat-like wings mounted on their backs. Their eyes were red. Small horns, claws, and a tail might also be seen. Succubi stood on average around 6 feet tall and weighed 125 pounds. Demonic succubi were by far the most attractive of the demons. However, succubi often used their shapeshifting changeling ability to assume a humanoid form and could maintain it as a disguise for as long as they liked. Thus mortals rarely saw succubi and incubi in their true forms but they were always attractive to an observer. Lovers, not fighters, succubi fled all conflict if they could. Using their claws only as a last resort if revealed in their fiendish form. Rather, they focused on dodging blows and running for safety. Nevertheless, they were rarely taken by surprise. Instead, they preferred subterfuge and seduction. Such as turning their enemies against each other, making them into loyal servants, or trying to get individuals alone. A preferred tactic was to disguise themselves and feign friendship. Or pretend to be a damsel in distress especially if encountered in a dungeon. Then find a moment to be alone with a potential victim where they could use their life-draining kiss or steal their soul with sex. Succubi and incubi were lustful creatures. A fiendish succubus or incubus desired a corrupted soul like nothing else feeling utter emptiness until they claimed one. Their deadly kiss was an echo of this emptiness. Demonic succubi lived to seduce and tempt mortal beings of the earth and in the end slay them and carry their life-forces back with them. For the destruction of mortals increased the power of Hell. They seemed to have fed on this life-force themselves. Many succubi and incubi were engaged almost constantly working to corrupt mortals, usually via promises of sex and other pleasures. Demonic succubi and incubi typically targeted men, women, & beyond of energy and passion. The fiery spirits of humans meant they were easier prey, so succubi did not often concern themselves with demi humans. They were content to take things slow and work subtly. Devilish succubi and incubi were adept at winning hearts and breaking hearts. But they also made for cunning and made skilled spies and assassins. They served higher-ranked devils as scouts and advisors, as emissaries to key mortals, and of course as concubines. They tempted mortals into sin on behalf of demon lords/ladies, arch demons, demon generals, & devils. Fiendish succubi and incubi commonly used their ethereal form to slip through walls to reach a mortal's bedside and linger there as they slept. Here, they filled their victim's dreams with debauched scenes and whispered of forbidden pleasures. Tempting them to indulge in dark desires, appetites, and taboos. The more the succubus and incubus did this in their dreams, the more vulnerable their victim became to temptation in the waking world. Eventually, the succubus and incubus entered the mortal realm directly. In a pleasing form previously seen only in the dreams. They then befriended or seduced their victim, so they could influence them directly. They would then indulge all their desires so they would perform evil deeds of their own free will. When the victim was utterly corrupted, such as by committing three betrayals of thought, word, and deed, their soul was in the grip of the succubus and incubus without need of contract or pledge. For a more virtuous victim, this corruption might take longer, but their downfall was all the more rewarding for the succubus. Finally, the succubus slew their victim with a kiss and sex and the corrupted soul went down to the lower planes as their prize. The succubus actually avoided charming the victim if they could help it, as the mortal would not be responsible for their actions and not truly corrupted. Thus, charming was mostly used for self-defense. Similarly, their lethal kiss was only used as a final assault or a parting shot before they escaped. Preferring to work alone, demonic succubi and incubi operated as lone wolves and rarely gathered in numbers.  Demonic succubi and incubi were independent of devil society. Going where they liked and doing as they willed and answering to none. The greater demons and arch demons tolerated them and even accepted their independence. For they served the devils in their own unique way. In turn, succubi and incubi could dominate lesser demons and imps through a mixture of threats and wits. They occasionally worked with imps who became their summons. Succubi and incubi were known to serve demon lords as advisors and consorts. Some squads of incubi and succubi engaged in espionage, sabotage, assasination, & infiltration. Some succubi and incubi were free agents working their own grand plots. This succubus and incubus in particular hopes to seduce the hero/heroine Lysander/Luciana while assisting them as a summon for their devil patron as a warlock. 

Afdani is a female chaotic good red (Bloodlines of Dispater, Glasya, Mammon, Maphistopheles, & Zariel ancestry) Winged Abyssal Tiefling. She is a warlock, witch, & sorceress. She is descended from fiends of demons and devils who had bred with humans. Tieflings are known for their cunning and personal allure. This made them excellent deceivers and inspiring leaders when prejudices were laid aside. Although their findish ancestors could be many generations removed the taint lingered. Unlike half demons, tieflings were not predisposed to evil alignments. They were varied in alignment as much as full humans. Tieflings tend to have an unsettling air about them. Most people are uncomfortable around them whether or not they are aware of their demon ancestry or not. While some looked like normal humans, most retained physical traits from their fiendish ancestors. Most common features being horns, prehensile tails, & pointed teeth. She has red horns. She has golden eyes. She has black hair which she dyed some to be purple. She has red skin. In her human form she has human-like tanned skin that has reddish hues and undertones. She has better reflexes than her human kin. This and their natural propensity for hiding and trickery helped give them a reputation for thievery and mischief. The physical appearance of a tiefling depends on the exact ancestry that spawned them. A bloodline might have remained dormant for generations. She besides the horns and tail, as a demonic tiefling, also has a forked tongue and scales on parts of her red skin. Tieflings have a number of abilities gifted to them by their demonic heritage. Tieflings are alluring and intelligent creatures with a seductive aura. Most tieflings were aware from an early age that they were different from others around them. They were given to strange urges and desires because of their demonic ancestry. Most tieflings now are raised with the love a normal human child might expect to receive. This shaped most of the race from bitter people who expect eventual rejection from people they meet. Because of their fiendish heritage many were distrusting and self-reliant. Tieflings are proud and secretive by nature and possess a dark demeanor. This makes them social outcasts. Members of other races find that once they demonstrate trust and friendship would be reciprocated in full. Once the bond was forged it was never broken. She as a tiefling is a talented warrior. In melee combat she is agile and nimble. She likes weapons that combine sharpness with speed. She uses hand crossbows, daggers, rapiers, longswords, & short swords. She, like most of her kind, is ambidextrous and favors a two handed fighting style. She doesn’t use shields. As a magic user she is a warlock, spellcaster, and conjurer. As a winged tiefling she has a pair of black demonic wings. She had an odor of sulfur and brimstone. Tieflings like other races that were a result of breeding two or more others gathered together to make a community and have a culture to call their own. They find refuge in the human federation of magical human kingdoms and indigenous magical human nations. Some tieflings are proud of their demon heritage. They were fascinated by the dark and sinister events that touched the world but weren’t evil enough to cause them. They chose to use this knowledge of evil and their demonic abilities to stop these dark schemes. Some wished to escape the shadows that lurked over them by constantly doing good to make up the evil that begot them. She, like many tieflings, is carnivorous and eats meat and sometimes drinks blood. In many ways tieflings were similar to humans physically. Tieflings on average were as tall as humans and were from 5’6 to 6 feet tall and weighed from 140 to 200 pounds. She is 5’8 and weighs 140 pounds. She sleeps with her eyes open. Her eyes roll backward. She snores in ancient incantations. Her tail acts in the same manner as a cat's would. When drunk instead of tripping over herself or slurring her words she gazes into nothing and whispers infernal phrases. She smells with her forked tongue. When she speaks small goats of smoke emerge with each word. Her tongue is that of a serpent giving their voice a hissing sound. She cannot blink or shed tears. She has an innate dislike of precise and/or complex geometric symbols. She loves to collect forbidden lore and knowledge. She has two large horns each of which has a red crystal carved into them. Small heatless flames flicker across her skin when she is angry. Her yellow eyes burn with the fires of her demonic ancestry. The echo of her voice returns in Infernal. She is followed by a loyal imp servant. When laughing nearby fires sputter, spark, and release sulfur smelling smoke. She grew up among another race. She grew up among the magical humans, Indigenous magical humans, & homo magi. They are her true family. Her trinket is a rose made out of steel engraved with a name written in infernal. She thinks the world should revolve around her. She flaunts her heritage at the most unfortunate of times. She would sell her soul for the one she loves. Her family was often away serving a family of an ancient warlock. She now serves their descendant Lysander/Luciana Norwood. 

Drovia a lawful good gold winged Scourge and Protector Aasimar. She is of noble background. She is an acolyte. She is a cleric and paladin. She has celestial ancestry.  She is half human half god. Aasimar have the mark of their celestial ancestor through many different physical features. Many often varied from person to person. Nearly all aasimar are uncommonly beautiful. They were often significantly taller than humans too. Most aasimar have pupil-less pale white, gray, & golden eyes and silver hair. She has golden eyes and silver hair. She has feathers mixed in her hair. Many aasimar have light covering of feathers on their shoulders where angel wings might sprout. Like tieflings, aasimar bloodlines could sometimes run dormant for generations, often reappearing after being hidden for some time. Most aasimar grew up cautious around others. Like tieflings were misunderstood sometimes, though never to the hateful extent many of fiendish or demonic bloodlines were. Even those raised by understanding parents couldn’t escape the curiosity or even fear their unique nature sometimes provoked. Many aasimar even suffered bigotry and prejudice. Something that deeply hurt the heart and soul of the aasimar in question since most had empathy for others. Though many aasimar are good in nature thanks to their celestial or divine ancestors not all are just as not all tieflings are evil. Aasimar are a wise and charismatic race. They possess strong insights and a powerful allure. Which most races can’t compare. They are also quite perceptive. Noticing things others don’t. They like tieflings are not rare and have true cities and societies of their own where they can find others of their kind. Because of their ties to good gods and celestial beings most aasimar are drawn to the religious path of clerics and paladins. Most aasimar spellcasters call upon divine magic as opposed to arcane magic. Many become paladins in the service of good. The philosophy of lawful good paladins resonate strongly with aasimar. She is lawful good. She is a scourge race aasimar and protector race aasimar. She is a cleric and paladin. Like other half breeds, aasimar did not feel as a whole beholden to one god or pantheon. Aasimar because of their human ancestry felt a strong draw to their kin. They also felt a strong bond with other half breeds. Many enjoyed the company of half elves and half orcs. They also god along well with good aligned tieflings. Whom the celestial descended race was instinctively wary of. Elemental genasi however they found alien even by their own standards. As a protector aasimar she is tasked by the powers of greater good to protect the good, weak, & innocent of the realms. When she was a preteen she was given a divine missive along with guidance to smite evil and defend those who can’t fight on their own. Protector aasimar were often more learned and judicious than others. She has a pair of ethereal celestial wings and a pair of corporeal angelic wings on her back. As a scourge aasimar she divine heritage has an intense drive to purge evil from the realms. She is an exceptionally healthy and robust person. They are imbued with powerful divine energy to help them carry out their natural drive to smite evil. The energy coursing through their body radiates outward making them easily identifiable. She wears a mask to hide away her otherworldly appearance except in combat. She always knows the direction and distance to the nearest places of worship. Any stringed instrument she plays is instantly tuned to perfection. When in her wingless human form two vertical lines go down her back near her shoulder blades. As an aasimar related to a being related to the sun the golden iris of her golden eyes look like an actual sun revolving. When in love a faintly colored glow hangs in the air around her and reaches out toward the object of her affection nearby. Light reflects off them in a way as if they are standing in a column of heavenly light. Her touch can relieve the pain of the sick and elderly for a week. People who sleep near her feel they rest more peacefully than they ever have. She shines slightly when in combat. Religious people seem drawn to her. Impurities in water clean up when she touches it. 

As a mage:

Tess Foxlight a neutral good fey flame Sprite. Sprites are the warrior relatives of pixies. They are fierce defenders of good wherever they are. They are firm judges of other creature’s hearts, souls, & intentions. Sprites resemble tiny elven fey with insect-like wings. They are about 2 feet tall. Sprites are flighty and found most creatures to be too serious. However they despised evil. Because of their attitude and zealous nature against evil. Sprites are considered harsh by other fey. Unlike pixies they didn’t care to engage in fun activities or adorn themselves. They are quick to ally with good natured creatures. They are quick to come to their aid even at unexpected times. They are excellent judges of character. They can always sense another creature’s real nature and emotions. Like other fey Tess possesses innate magical powers. They can become invisible at will. They can detect good or evil from 40 yards away. She is an excellent brewer of toxins, poisons, & antidotes. They favored a potent sleep potion they coated their arrows with as an archer. They usually harvested the ingredients for toxins and poisons in forests. Even going into dangerous places to find them. They were not above stealing from hag’s gardens if necessary. Sprites kept an eye on other small pixie, sprite, or fairy fey to protect them. They also kept an eye on fey to know who to invite to their gatherings. She associates with druids and rangers. She opposes the will of evil fey and pledges to thwart evil arch fae at every turn. Unlike pixies she rarely indulges in fun and merriment. They are firm warriors, protectors, & judges. She protected Lysander/Luciana from dark fay. Sprites make their homes in meadows and glades deep within forests. They are omnivorous creatures. Unlike their kin. They are mainly active during the day. Sprite villages can also be found in the trunks of trees. They allowed no trespassers. They are quick to judge the moral character of invaders. As a flame sprite she is temperamental and loves fire. She uses a small dog as a battle mount.     

Ysret a chaotic good Pixie. Pixies resemble tiny elves. They are from one feet to two feet in height. Pixies have silver moth-like wings. They prefer to wear brightly colored clothing. Pixies are mischievous spirits that enjoy playing pranks on people. Such pranks are leading travelers astray. Pixies are well known pranksters but some delight in more helpful magic. In combat pixies wield appropriately sized swords and bows. Their arrows are drugged in a potion that causes memory loss. Pixie villages each have different clans and families. Community loyalty is important to them. Although pixies carried no treasure with them. They are known to have tiny hoards in their homes to impress visitors. She keeps coins, gemstones, & other treasures to impress Lysander/Luciana. She is active at night. Like other pixies she is a vegetarian eating fruits, vegetables, & nectar. Pixies live in temperate forests making their villages in deep forest caves. One legend says pixies stole from the secret of making honey from the Fairy Queen Titania and sold it to the bee species.  

Chaotic good Fairy. A particularly spiteful fae fairy that has run away from home. She latched onto them because it liked the color of their eyes. Occasionally changes their hair color and eye color in the middle of the night. It refuses to be told what to cast or when. 

As a wizard:

Neutral good red pseudo dragon. Pseudodragons typically had bodies about one foot long, with a two-foot tail and weighed about seven pounds. They could communicate telepathically in common or draconic. They also communicated through the vocalization of animal noises. While pseudodragons could bite their main weapon was a stinging, poisonous tail. They had chameleon-like abilities, though their color was usually a brownish red. Pseudodragons inhabited temperate forests in the wild, but they could often be found as familiars in nearly any environment. Their general attitude was similar to that of a small cat but with a cunning intelligence. Pseudodragons loved to hunt vermin and small animals for food. They were wary of evil beings, but were willing to serve as a companion to another being if treated well and respected.

Chaotic good violet fairy dragon. A micro-dragon. If it curls up it fits into the palm of their hand. They found it in their copper, bronze, silver, gold, & platinum coin pouch one day clutching a single gold piece and it refuses to let go.

As an artificer:

Clockwork Spy. Particularly guileful crafters may construct miniature clockwork spies that can record sound. Rumors tell of even more advanced technologies that allow visual recording. While magical wonders such as spells can allow the user to scry information or to see where one isn't normally physically able. Clockwork spies provide an edge in that their memories are concrete and incorruptible enabling them to make flawless recordings of events not subject to the regular perversions of human memories. This tiny steel creature has eight small gemstone eyes, a spherical body, and several spider-like legs of grinding metal.  These spindly and discreet mechanical arachnids are ideal for surveillance and reconnaissance missions. They can be vital tools in political intrigues or illicit consortium tactics. Their retractable insectile wings make the swift creatures even craftier foes than most would anticipate. As they are less combat-oriented than many other clockworks. If a clockwork spy is caught in the act of recording its target. Escape is usually the most practical course of action for it. A clockwork spy can record nearby sounds archiving all sound within a 20-foot spread onto small gemstone crystals embedded in its body. The clockwork spy can record up to 1 hour of sound per crystal it possesses. Clockwork spies must be given commands as to when they are to start recording sounds. A clockwork spy can differentiate between creature types and subtypes. It can differentiate between specific individuals. A spy can be ordered to start recording sound as soon as a humanoid comes in range. It can be ordered to start recording when a specific person comes within range. Once a clockwork spy begins recording sound it can cease recording early. Likewise, it cannot record sound onto a gemstone that already contains a recording.

Clockwork Automaton. Created not by a god, not by magic, but by pure science and technology an automaton is a construct designed to emulate life. Gears and cogs turn within their carapaces. Thinking, processing, & learning. Depending on the creator an automaton may have a very life-like face with optical sensors. Automatons can be modeled after any of the races. Usually human or elf is the standard choice. However, if the creator wants a strong servant they may be modeled after a troll, half troll, goliath, oni, giant, orc, or a half-orc. If they want a nimble spy the automaton may be modeled after a fairy, pixie, imp, halfling, or hobgoblin. An automaton is given a name that their creator see’s fit. Whether it is the name of a relative or important person in history or mythology. Or alternatively, an automaton could not be given a name at all but a serial number. Distinguishing them from the others by number and type. Emulating life can only get you so far in society. Because of this, if an automaton is left to roam freely they can find it very hard to integrate into society. An automaton left to their own devices is not a common thing however. More often than not, an automaton is built for a purpose. If this is the case, they will not steer from this purpose. It is what they were made for it is what they will do until they are given a new purpose. Some arrogant scientists create automatons to flaunt their intellectual prowess. These automatons are the kind that are most life-like created for the spectacle, rather than anything of much worth. This automaton was made life-like by Lysander/Luciana to make it easier for humanoids to be around it. But not too life-like with an uncanny valley, made somewhat cartoonish on purpose, so as to not be creepy. Automatons with the purpose of dazzling and amazing crowds are often seen as just that, a clever trick of an even cleverer man. And thus, is the life of an automaton, either loved or hated without cause and without care. Seen as either a spectacle or an atrocity. A wonderful creation of art and science, or an unsettling attempt at something not quite real. At times when an automaton's creator dies they must find a new purpose. A lone automaton will wander the streets until it finds someone who will take them in or work with what they can do. Some automatons are gifted with the ability to understand and perform acts of arcane magic. Some are given new skills and abilities to explore. Others are captured as slaves, forced to work, or forced to fight. Learning nothing new and living a life as empty as before. These are in fact, the best case scenarios since more often than not an automaton left to roam alone without a master will succumb to the violence of fear and ignorance. Destroyed before they can become more than what they were made for. As stated before, every automaton is created by a person or even a team of people. Usually the body and general appearance of the automaton is based on the race of the creator(s). This is not the case if the automaton is made for a specific purpose of course. If an automaton was design for infiltration or assassination they will sport an agile and athletic body. Akin to that of an elf, human, draenei, or halfling. Alternatively, an automaton made with protection, defense or offense as the main priority have thick-built muscular bodies, modeled in the way of orcs, trolls, giants, oni, & goliaths.. In rare cases, automatons are constructed for personal purposes. Such as a friend, companion or even an intimate partner and these automatons are crafted to embody the most appealing physical appearance of either gender of any race desired. This automaton was created by Lysander/Luciana to be a secretary, bodyguard, friend, companion, servant, assistant, & spy. More often than not, automatons built for intimate relations are the most frowned upon. Most often, automatons have a thin outer layer of metal sheets that hide the inner-workings of the machine. Designed to imitate skin as well as protecting the automaton's insides. This outer layer or metal skin will emulate that of a male, female body or nonbinary body shaped to the creators wishes. The metal sheets are not connected in places like the abdominal section of the torso or shoulder but slide over each other to allow joint movement. These sheets can be made from any range of metals from mithril, iron, steel, bronze, titanium, copper, gold, brass, silver, & adamantine. The head and face of the automatons are surrounded by the same material, but do not compare as well to real-life faces as the bodies do. The faces of many automatons struggle to show emotion. This is mirrored by the automatons inability to feel emotion. When a primitive automaton is made with a specific purpose their hands will be crafted to only do those things. This automaton was created to mirror an advanced android and so was built with thoughts and emotions using magic using the same magic to make a homunculus. This automaton has moving eyebrows and cheeks. The eyes are emotive. The chin, cheeks, upper lips, & lower lip move to simulate speech. Clockwork automatons are as diverse as all the races of the land and sea. They represent the full gambit of alignments. But each and every construct is unified under one common concept and that is immortality. While not fitting the true definition of an immortal creature a clockwork automaton never ages. With careful preparation a clockwork automaton could conceivably live forever. The conversion process is shrouded in mystery. Once all the information is gathered, the result is a body that is constructed out of screws, gears, springs, and assorted similar parts. It is tailored to the specific tastes of the target creature. In a final arcane act the machine is then given life through a complex ritual where the soul of the base creature is permanently bonded to the new body. Leaving their mortal remains to decay naturally. This clockwork automaton was bonded with the soul of a sprite, dark pixie, dryad, & dark fairy. This clockwork automaton is near sentient. Its body was based on a void elf, dark elf, moon elf, star elf, night elf, & drow.  She, like a homunculus, was created in an alchemical experiment. Perhaps a powerful magic user created her simply to prove that they could. Regardless of why she was created, unlike others she is certain of the reason behind her creation. For one reason or another she has been left to her own devices. She has the freedom to choose her own destiny. She is a product of science and an affront to nature. As such, certain powerful beings take notice of her unnatural existence. Celestials, fey, infernals see her as special. When encountering her they may treat her differently than normal. Celestials will likely treat her as a curiosity and perhaps take pity on her. Fey will almost always greet her with hostility. Infernals will be especially intrigued in creating contracts with her or becoming her patron. Her creator created her as a companion. Her creator is like a parent to her. It seems that thoughts and emotions were seen as necessary when she was created. After bonding the dead spirits of a dark pixie, dark fairy, dryad, & sprite to the automaton she was given near sentience. She is similar to an android with advanced artificial intelligence. She feels all things were created for a reason and have their place in the world. She is endlessly curious in regards to the world around her, especially when it comes to other living creatures. She feels that the world is meant to be studied and morality only stands in the way. She has interests in most scholarly fields. Her creator's penchant for study was instilled in her and she has taken up their work. She as an autonomous being with near sentience with thoughts and emotions has interests for the pleasures of life. She is filled with envy towards those naturally born. She endlessly craves the family that she can never have. She has learned of a land far from where she was created. She is obsessed with reaching this distant land. Her obsession with finding her purpose leaves little room for anything else in her life. She doesn't know who or what she is and as such am always seeking guidance. She is emotionally unstable. Swiftly alternating from emotion to emotion. She is angered and saddened extremely easily. This must be a defect in her creation. Death fascinates her. If those born of natural means are unsure of their final destination. She must wonder what death has in store for her. She may be born of unnatural means, but she is no less a person than anyone else. That she is feared and misunderstood only goes to show that the world has room to be changed for the better. 

Mechanical Familiar. They have a mechanical familiar. They drew the blueprint for a small mechanical creature. They then had it built by gnome, draenei, goblin, & dwarf artificers. It has a built-in net launcher that launches a reinforced steel weave net for capturing animals, creatures, beasts, & monsters. The net is electrified to stun and electrocute targets. It has a built in harpoon gun with a burning or cryogenic harpoon to burn and freeze enemies. It has a built-in enhanced grappling hook and zipline. It can become mechanical wings to help users glide short distances or fly long distances. They can fly or glide after turning into a wearable backpack with deployable metal artificial wings and parachutes. It can swim by turning into a mechanical fish with propellers and fins. It can walk by turning into a mechanical cat or dog. It can dig or borrow by turning into a mechanical badger. It can defend itself by turning into a mechanical turtle, hedgehog, or armadillo. The golem is modeled off a creature. This tiny metallic creature is shaped like an avian, fish, cat, dog, or tiny dragon with cogs, gears, screws, and belts whirring beneath its shining, articulated plates. With its ability to generate electric shocks a clockwork familiar can be useful in combat. Yet it more often finds more use in the workshop where its methodical thought processes and innate knowledge of mechanical systems allow it to offer valuable advice. In addition, each clockwork familiar has a unique relationship with a particular type of magic item established at creation. When items of the chosen sort are slotted into the familiars usually via a locking compartment. Though some familiars simply drink potions and their metal stomachs become new receptacles. The familiars gain the ability to drain the magic back out of the items and turn it toward a different preset purpose such as healing themselves or creating a specific spell effect. Each clockwork familiar possesses the ability to carry magic items in its body. This specific item type is chosen at the time of the construct’s creation, and cannot be changed. This clockwork familiar has a potion, a scroll, & a wand.  While the creature cannot activate or use the item it gains certain constant abilities from the resonant magic fields. It can drain the item’s magic in order to gain additional magical effects. It is smaller and lighter than most golems. It is kept aloft by intricate wings. When it comes to familiars most magic users satisfy themselves with mundane creatures such as birds, cats, snakes, etc. Those with the power to bind greater assistants like warlocks often call forth helpers from otherworldly planes turning minor fiends like imps, homunculi, or minor celestials like mustavels to their will as familiars. Yet for artificers and those who fuse magic with machinery the best familiar is the one the caster creates themselves breathing life into a clockwork mechanism of their own design. Clockwork familiars can take a variety of forms depending on the whim of the creator. Most popular are tiny metal dragons, metal birds (especially owls and ravens), metal cats, metal dogs, & spiders that run on clicking needlelike legs. Though practically any shape and material can be animated in this fashion. Clockwork familiars can be constructed from a wide variety of materials. The most common being steel, mithril, iron, adamantine, copper, bronze, & titanium. Though their bodies are often expertly crafted contraptions of gears, cogs, screws, even circuitry. A clockwork familiar is not simply a robotic wind-up toy nor is its consciousness the result of elaborate programming. Instead, each construct is more like a vehicle for the tiny spirit that lives inside its heart. On their own, these flickers of consciousness pulled from the fundamental animating energy of the planes would have no real ability to affect their surroundings. Only through the specially attuned constructs created by magic users do they gain the ability to truly live. Perhaps gratitude for this service that initially binds clockwork familiars to their creators. Once called into being and installed in its new vessel a clockwork familiar’s animating spirit controls its mechanical manipulators through tiny bursts of gas, magic, steam, electricity. As a result, most such constructs have conductive metal parts and thus an instinctive fear of water, rust, & corrosion. Unable to heal naturally, clockwork familiars know that if their systems fail they may never again be granted the chance to interact with the world. As a result, most clockwork familiars tend to be slightly paranoid and demanding when it comes to getting their masters to keep them in good repair. It’s not uncommon to find a clockwork familiar left to its own devices busily scouring rust from its shell, performing maintenance on itself, or attempting to improve the resilience of its basic functions. As created creatures clockwork familiars have little society of their own and tend to take on mannerisms and speech patterns similar to their master. Most feel an instinctive affection for their masters. Though as intelligent beings it’s not unheard of for the little automatons to have existential crises if their masters mistreat or ignore them. Clockwork familiars are often fascinated by other constructed creatures and may attempt to befriend or study them. To better understand how their systems work. Though they rarely adopt religion on their own familiars with religious masters may go through the motions of worship as a way of honoring their place in the great chain of creation. Left to themselves, clockwork familiars tend to be more interested in the systems and logic by which the natural world and planes operate than in particular entities including deities. While clockwork familiars have little desire for treasure themselves they understand its value in trading. They may snatch up worthwhile items either on behalf of their master. Or if they’re concerned about being provided for as emergency funds with which to purchase information or repairs. Or as fuel for their magic-draining abilities. It has a leather pouch on its belly where it keeps various trinkets and valuables. Obsessively steals trinkets and valuables if left unattended. Clockwork familiars value knowledge above all things though they tend to focus on logic, mathematics, organizational systems, and new ways of seeing and interpreting the world rather than simple facts. In a clockwork familiar’s eyes an almanac is just useless clutter, but a textbook on geometry or chemistry is worth more than a pile of gold. As intelligent creatures clockwork familiars have an ambiguous relationship with the lives of servitude they’re inevitably born into. For some, the philosophical quandaries are small and easily managed as their creators treat them well, ask their opinion, share their supply or cache of valuable knowledge, and may even come to love them. For others, whose masters see them as slaves at best and irritatingly imperfect projects at worst only fear for their continued existence keeps the constructs in line. Many fall somewhere in the middle and are interested in all the world has to offer even down to the mundanity of fetching and polishing and thus are content to experience life on their masters’ terms. Clockwork constructs are the technological cousins of golems constructed with a combination of magic and precise technologies dependent upon the internal churning and turning of thousands of intricate springs, cogs, screws, and gears. There are those who would scoff at the work of clockwork engineers whose constructs seem at best merely imitations of the creations brought to life by practitioners of the purely arcane arts. However, those canny enough to realize the potential of clockwork engines know their true power to be both exotic and potent. In worlds where clockworks are common these creatures can rival even the most powerful of golems for raw power. Massive giants and goliaths comprising countless nuts and bolts have torn entire empires asunder. Time and time again clockwork creatures have proven themselves a formidable presence in the face of more traditional rivals. Those who have borne witness to the feats of these creatures know to hold their tongues before questioning the constructs' power. Clockwork creatures function by combining magical energies and clockwork mechanisms. The myriad metal parts that go into the construction of a clockwork creation require absolute precision in order to function properly. So they must be built by only the steadiest of hands. Amateurish attempts at clockwork construction typically result in nonfunctional units or misfires. Many an engineering lab has been burned to the ground by novices seeking to learn the basics of clockworks and the elements that power them. Clockwork creations as their names suggest it must be wound up before they animate. The creator of a clockwork crafts a unique key for each creation. This key is typically inserted into the clockwork's back and turned clockwise to wind it. Turning the key counterclockwise has the effect of winding the machine down. Though only a willing or completely helpless machine will allow itself to be unwound in this way. Meaning either its creator or someone its creator has specifically designated can normally do so. Larger clockworks tend to have larger keys and particularly huge keys require more than one set of hands to turn. Rather than seek assistance from other engineers, eccentric or hermetic inventors often rely upon other clockwork creations to help them turn keys or aid in the creation of more monumental constructs. Other times, engineers give copies of keys to their most trusted clockworks which can be programmed to wind allies and even themselves as the situation requires. Much like golems and animated objects, clockwork creatures can be given any number of commands. A perpetually turning script in their core records those orders and programs the rest of the machine. Only one who possesses a key to the clockwork can program it but any commands given to the construct last until the clockwork is reprogrammed or destroyed. An individual clockwork's potential is only limited by its creator's innovation and aptitude. Unlike many golems, which are trapped in bodies resembling lumbering and fallible cages. Clockwork constructs can be repeatedly reworked and reengineered. Their gears can be oiled, springs can be replaced, and pistons can be fine-tuned. The ever adjustable framework of these mechanical beasts allows for extreme variation from creation to creation. Since clockwork creations are mostly mechanical and are at the mercy of their creator's adeptness with the technology they are prone to the follies of human error. Loose bolts, improper programming, or lack of maintenance are all cause for malfunctions. Errors that can range from minute energy leaks to deadly explosions. The most common cause of malfunction however, is not imparted by the creator, but by the clockwork's destroyer. Creatures attacking the machine gradually unhinge screws and twist cogs with each landed blow. Giving the clockwork a greater chance of backfire. Many combat clockworks are thus accompanied by clockwork servants. Servitor clockworks that quickly and readily fix their mechanical allies in the heat of battle. In the earlier days of clockwork technology, many practical hindrances prevented rapid maturation of the devices. Clockwork machines were powered by inefficient, costly resources. However, the advent of arcane enchantment not only has allowed for greater precision in the crafting of gears and other key components, but has also opened up a wide new range of possibilities for defensive systems and offensive weapons. Early attempts to combine clockwork with steam power or other non magical forms of energy tended to overcomplicate the already delicate machinery and have long since been abandoned as a result. Whispers abound of an even more unusual category of clockwork that has solved this problem and has merged the complexities of power with the adaptability of magical energies. Such exotic and unusual clockworks made out of brass, copper, iron, silver, gold, steel, & titanium are ones like this that are powered by steam, gas, oil, & electricity as well as magic.

True neutral Homunculus. This vaguely humanoid creature is about the size of a cat but looks more like a toothy winged devil. A homunculus cannot speak but the process of creating one links it telepathically with its creator. A homunculus knows what its master knows and can convey to them everything it sees and hears. The homunculus was upgraded as an improved homunculus. A homunculus is a miniature servant created by a spellcaster from their own blood. They are weak combatants but make effective spies, messengers, & scouts. A homunculus’s creator determines its precise features. Some are more refined looking but most creators don’t bother to improve the creature’s appearance beyond the minimum necessary for functioning. This homunculus looks refined. A homunculus is shaped from a mixture of clay, ash, mandrake root, spring water, & one pint of the creator’s own blood. After the body is sculpted it is animated through an extended magical ritual that requires a specially prepared laboratory or workroom similar to an alchemist’s laboratory. If the creator is personally constructing the creature’s body the building and ritual can be performed together. The person whose blood is used to form a homunculus’s body becomes its master. It is possible for one person to give blood for the creation, another to sculpt the base material, and another to magically animate it as a minion for the one who provided the blood. Homunculi are little more than tools designed to carry out assigned tasks. They are extensions of their creators sharing the same alignment and basic nature. A homunculus never willingly travels more than a mile from its master though it can be removed forcibly. If this occurs the creature does everything in its power to return to this range as it cannot communicate with its master beyond this distance. An attack that destroys a homunculus deals damage to its master. If the creature’s master is slain the homunculus goes insane and generally claims the immediate surroundings as its domain mindlessly attacking any who intrude upon its lair. On rare occasions a homunculus freed from its servitude rises above its master’s original intent and becomes more than a half-insane construct guardian of a long-forgotten lair. In some cases, a homunculus might even come to see itself as the rightful heir to its master’s legacy or even the reincarnated spirit of the master themselves. This homunculus was upgraded and made into an improved homunculi. It has acid breath. By distilling brimstone and aqua regia a crafter can bestow upon the homunculus the ability to spit a 15-foot-line of acid. This is a breath weapon that deals acid damage, toxic damage, & corrosive damage. It has extra eyes. By adding silver shavings to the homunculus a crafter can imbue it with additional eyes granting it the all-around vision ability and increased perception. It has the ability to use spells. By incorporating 10 potions of the same spell in the homunculus’s creation a crafter can imbue the homunculus with the power to use that spell. It can spit poison. By adding gold and realgar to the homunculus a crafter can give it the ability to spit its poison as a ranged attack that deals poison damage. The ability has a range of 15 feet. It has a toughened hide. By adding diamond dust and cold iron to the homunculus a crafter can increase its natural armor. It has a voice. By adding dew of lunary and platinum to the homunculus a crafter can grant it the ability to speak in a voice that sounds eerily like a diminutive version of its master’s.

Mechanical Golem. The mechanical golem is quadrupedal. It has extra storage for equipment and tools. It has extra storage for armor, shields, & weapons. It can carry users over long distances.

Magical Pets:

A neutral good phoenix. A phoenix was a powerful elemental bird that embodied the wild and unpredictable nature of fire. Phoenixes were enormous birds with brightly colored orange, scarlet, and golden feathers. They have golden beaks and claws with ebony talons. Their talons had the consistency of diamonds. Their eyes were a glowing ruby color.  Phoenix bodies were capable of becoming almost immaterial. Only composed of flame taking solid shape. For that reason they were capable of passing through extremely narrow passages. They were also capable of engulfing opponents within their fiery bodies. Phoenixes were reclusive creatures that did not seek out contact with other creatures. As reclusive creatures, they tended to avoid contact with others. They did not seek out conflict with other creatures either. But if disturbed, provoked, or properly motivated they showed relentless fury and destructive power. Phoenixes had a fierce hatred toward undead, zombies, & ghouls and attacked them on sight. Their bodies were capable of withstanding incredibly severe cold and heat. They could make themselves ethereal, allowing them to travel either ethereally or by astral projection. In combat phoenixes were fierce adversaries with no fear of a fight to the death, especially since their rebirth was assured. Though their physical attacks were quite fast and powerful. They often preferred to use their large array of innate magical effects. Phoenixes were extremely effective at destroying buildings and structures. If a phoenix was slain in combat its body exploded in a violent detonation that destroyed the phoenix and most of its surroundings. In addition to being capable of speaking with all species of bird, phoenixes communicated with other creatures through empathy and telepathy. They had extremely long lifespans estimated to be between 1,000 and 12,000 years. Their resurrection process consisted entirely of self-immolation and rebirth. Female phoenixes reproduced by laying eggs normally. They laid one egg per year but roughly only one in every 100 eggs ever hatched. The phoenix is a large flame wreathed bird. Known for its unique ability to immolate itself only to be reborn again from its ashes. It is revered in some cultures as a deity. A phoenix measures between 10 to 15 feet long from beak to tail. Its wingspan can reach over 40 feet. The phoenix is known for its whistling, piercing call which can startle opponents. It is practically impossible to surprise it in combat. It fights with its long, sharp beak and diamond-hard talons. Phoenixes will attack with their natural weapons if necessary, but much prefer to burn things up with their spell-like abilities. They would rather incapacitate a fire-oriented creature than kill it. Against water elementals though they will fight to the death. Otherwise, they prefer strategy.  They are also somewhat pyromaniacs and love the huge displays of flame they make while flying. They will live near human settlement if it's similar enough to a desert environment. Phoenixes are mortal enemies of water elementals.

King Cerberus (Evolved three headed Hellhound). Bathed in hellfire. Smells of sulfur and brimstone. Hellhounds resembled monstrous dogs with powerful physiques. They stand 5 ft high at the shoulder. They weigh 150 pounds.  Hellhounds speak and understand Infernal and fiendish. Hellhounds are efficient hunters. A favorite pack tactic is to surround prey quietly. Then attack with one or two mated pair hounds. Then driving it toward the rest with their fiery hellfire breath. If the prey doesn’t run the pack closes in. Hellhounds track fleeing prey relentlessly. Hellhounds are smarter than mundane beasts. They are good at following orders.  Hellhounds hunt in packs feeding on any creature that appears edible. They avoid potentially dangerous foes in favor of targeting the weakest prey with their savage bite, claws, and fiery hellfire breath. Demonstrating a relentless determination as they pursue that prey to the bitter end.  When hellhounds feed the flesh they consume stokes the infernal fires that burn within them. When a hellhound dies that fire consumes the creature's remains in a billowing eruption of smoke and blazing embers. Leaving nothing behind but scorched tufts of black fur. Monstrous fire-breathing fiends that take the form of powerful dogs. Hellhounds are most commonly seen in service to demons, devils, & fire giants that use them as pets, guard dogs, attack dogs, & hunting dogs. They are ferocious pack hunters that act as faithful companions and dangerous pets across the multiverse, otherworldly planes, & the nine hells. Their fearsome forms were covered in short ruby red and charcoal black fur. Their eyes glowed red. The markings on their bodies as well were the color of soot. Their canines and claws were the color of coal. They reeked of brimstone and sulfurous smoke. They were bathed in hellfire. The dietary needs of hellhounds were similar to those of ordinary canines and they would consume anything that appeared edible. The flesh they consumed fed the fires within them. They only occasionally brought food back to their dens for later consumption preferring to eat at the site of the hunt.  It was practically impossible to avoid detection from a hellhound. As their vision was sharp enough that they spotted those in hiding or invisible half of the time. Their excellent olfactory senses made them capable trackers and their hearing made them incredibly difficult to sneak up on. They were also known to have a keen sense of hearing. Hellhounds were very stealthy creatures and unlike ordinary dogs they did not howl when hunting. Instead they quietly stalk their prey and surround them in a ring. One or two hellhounds would immediately use their scorching hellfire breath to drive their quarry into the waiting fiery canines of the other pack members unafraid of harming their other infernal companions. Cunning and efficient they targeted the weakest of prey. Slowly surrounding those that refused to retreat. Hellhounds were capable of breathing out a stream of scorching hellfire from their mouths. Hellhounds being intelligent beasts could be trained and commanded by various entities across the planes.  Cerberus are the size of racehorses. This cerberus was outfitted with infernal hellfire chainmail plate armor. Cerberus are the kings and queens of regular hellhounds. This King Cerberus is thirty foot tall. 

Dire wolf.  Dire wolves are efficient pack hunters that will kill anything they can catch. Dire wolves are gray or black. They are the size of a horse. They are about 9 feet long and weigh 800 pounds. Dire wolves were far more aggressive than normal wolves. Attacking and killing anything they could catch. They could be found alone as lone wolves or in packs numbering three to five. They had keen senses including a sharp sense of smell allowing them to track their prey by scent. They could also move stealthily on the hunt.  Dire wolves fought in packs. Fighting efficiently and surrounding their prey. Then flanking it to gain an advantage.

Worg. A worg is an apex predator that delights in hunting and devouring creatures weaker than itself. It is cunning and malevolent. Worgs roam across the remote wilderness or are raised by goblins and hobgoblins. Those creatures use worgs as mounts, but a worg will turn on its rider if it feels mistreated or malnourished.  More intelligent than their smaller cousins, worgs speak their own language. Worgs speak Worg, Goblin, Troll, Orcish, & Common. A worg was a type of magical beast that resembled a normal wolf but was larger, intelligent, had a fiendish countenance, & glowing gold eyes. They had gray or black fur.  They stood on average 3 feet high at the shoulder  and were 5 feet long. They weighed around 300 pounds. In any number, worgs employed similar tactics to wolves.  They also had the benefit of stealth, keen senses, and the ability to scent and track prey. Despite their higher intelligence, worgs tended to act like regular wolves. They often hunted in packs, but sometimes hunted alone. Lone worgs tended to hunt creatures smaller than themselves, while mated pairs and packs hunted large game. They preferred large, herbivorous animals, usually the young, sick, or weak. But they weren't afraid to take on humanoids, especially when other prey was scarce. They would stalk humanoid prey for a number of hours or even days. Choosing the best time of day and terrain for the attack. When they did, they employed hit-and-run guerilla tactics to exhaust a victim until finally the whole pack went in for the kill. If they outnumbered a victim or were especially impatient, they might try to corner the prey, then attack. Mated pairs or packs work together to bring down large game. While lone worgs usually chase down creatures smaller than themselves. Both often use hit-and-run tactics to exhaust their quarry. A pack usually circles a larger opponent. Then each wolf attacks in turn. Biting and retreating until the creature is exhausted. At which point the pack moves in for the kill. If they get impatient or heavily outnumber the opponent. The worgs attempt to pin it. They attacked with their teeth and claws. Like a wolf they could bite their prey and try to bear them down to the ground. Worgs are oversized intelligent wolves often found dwelling amid goblins, goblinoids, hobgoblins, or other giant kin races. Worgs hunt in packs running down and surrounding their prey like common wolves. But their intelligence and ability to speak make them better at coordinating their attacks. They sometimes use one packmate as a decoy. Pretending to be a humanoid calling for help in order to lure intelligent prey into an ambush. Worgs that travel with goblins, goblinoids, & goblinoids often allow hobgoblins to ride on their backs as goblin riders. Worgs were used by goblinoids, oni, trolls, goliaths, orcs, & giants as pets, mounts, guard dogs, hunting dogs, & attack dogs. 

Glacier Wolf (Evolved Winter Wolf). They are ferocious and powerful winter wolves. They are sought after by the mightiest of frost giants as guard dogs, hunting dogs, and attack dogs. Glacier wolves often lead packs of winter wolves. They have intellect far above that of the average beast. Winter wolves typically hunt in packs. Their size, cunning, freezing bite, cryogenic claws, & formidable ice breath allow them to hunt and kill creatures much larger than themselves. A pack usually circles an opponent. Each wolf attacked in turn to exhaust it. If they’re in a hurry white wolves try to pin their foes. A winter wolf grows about 8 feet long and stands about 5 feet at the shoulder. It weighs about 450 pounds. They are immune to frost, water, ice, snow, & frost attacks yet weak to fire, magma, & lava attacks. They can speak and understand common, goblinoid, and giant language. They have silver fur and sapphire eyes. They were the guardians, companions, & allies of arctic beings such as ice dragons, yeti, & frost giants. 

Berserker Wolf: These are massive wolves that tend to form large packs to hunt prey. They are known for their black fur. That is often stained by the blood of their prey. For when they smell blood it drives them into a berserker rage that only ends with either the prey's death or their own. The claws of a wolf are usually far from the most dangerous part of the animal. These beasts can have claws as long and thick as daggers. Barbarians sometimes keep berserker wolves as hunting companions as they can be trained to discern friend from foe in their berserker rages.

Giant Wolf. Used by giant kin such as trolls, orcs, goliaths, oni, & giants as attack dogs, pets, hunting dogs, guard dogs, & mounts. They are an extremely cunning species of savagely fierce, cruel, and violent pack animals that are known famously for their unnaturally large size as well being found roaming within large tracts of wilderness. Giant wolves have been known to grow to an unnaturally large size. With some pups growing larger than even a pony and some juveniles even as large as a horse. When hunting, these Giant Wolves have adapted to become skilled, cunning and patient hunters that would naturally hunt in large packs. They encircle their intended prey and when the timing is right they pounce from all directions. Using their overwhelming numbers these Wolves would target the weakest point within the animals defenses or prey upon the most helpless one within the group. They would hunt the weak, sick, injured, or old. As a result of their mutual instinct to pick upon the helpless and weak by tactics such as overwhelming and encirclement. There has always been a strong bond and a deep respect between the Giant Kin and the Giant Wolf. In this mutual exchange the giant kin is rewarded with a fast and agile mount while the wolf is usually rewarded with a regular supply of food. Giant kin ride on Giant Wolves in the same way that other races ride upon horses, unicorns, pegasi, griffins, alicorns, hippogriffs, & dragons which eventually lead to the creation of Giant Kin Wolf Rider. Giant wolves are to dire wolves and worgs what dire wolves are to regular gray wolves. Measuring nearly 30 feet in length these colossal lupines are the genuine kings and queens of the forest. They are looked up to by their smaller kin as a divine figure. Giant wolf packs include dozens of grey wolves, dire wolves, worgs, & even winter wolves. Some werewolf clans even run with giant wolves. Tribal humanoids also pay their respects to giant wolves through prayer and reverence. Lands guarded by a giant wolf are usually seen as “off-limits” by outsiders.

A two handed claymore. It is made out of celestial steel. It is a solid black blade. Its look is like it is perpetually wreathed in darkness. Its fame is considered mythical. Its quirk is it was once part of a divine war. It was created in the fires of hell by its first wielder who was a fallen paladin and dark knight. It draws its power from its wielder's ambition. The weapon's main effect is it creates walls of flame made out of demonic hellfire. The weapon's secondary effect is it summons evil creatures such as demons, succubi, incubi, ghosts, & zombies to assist the wielder in combat. It is sentient. Its restriction is it needs to draw the blood of opponents to be resheathed. Its quirk is that it is haunted by spirits of past wielders. Its alignment is chaotic evil. It is wielded by damned souls. 

Fire basilisk fang dagger. A curved dagger. The heavy 6 inch/15cm blade has a very sharp wide edge. It has complex engravings inlaid in silver. It has a fancy guard, a crimson leather-bound grip, & a spherical pommel. The dagger has a fancy scabbard with delicate patterns etched across it.

Automotive Armored Bionic Prosthetic Arm: Weapon Mode:

Automotive Armored Prosthetic Bionic and Cybernetic Arm: He/she/they are physically disabled as someone because he/she/they were disfigured in combat during war. He/she/they were disfigured by a magical arcane mithril longsword wielded by an officer of the Homo Magi Empire. At some point in the past he/she/they have lost use and function to a part of himself/herself/themselves. But through study of the arcane and the help of those who have already done so he/she/they have replaced it with an advanced prosthetic replacement. It is a prosthesis that replaces a missing extremity such as an arm or leg. The type of limb used is determined by the extent of amputation or loss of the missing extremity and the location of the missing extremity. Artificial limbs are needed for a variety of reasons where a body part is either missing from the body or a body part is too damaged to be repaired. It was built for them by an engineer, an inventor, & a mechanic. This team was assisted by several artificers (of differing subclasses and backgrounds) and several highly skilled magic users (such as a mage, alchemist, sorcerer, witch, & warlock). It was installed on their body through a team of highly trained surgeons and doctors. Having artificial prosthetic limbs comes with a number of complications. Some of which are minor annoyances while others can be dangerous if ignored. Due to the constant risk of damage and mechanical failures these mechanical prosthetics require daily maintenance and repair. It is maintained and repaired regularly by a team of mechanics and artificers. The automotive armored prosthetic bionic arm is upgradable and highly customizable. The prosthetic is linked directly to the nervous system taking electrical pulses from nerves to regulate the many electrical motors and actuators inside the prosthetic bionic arm. It can be moved at will like a natural appendage. This augment functions as if it were the normal body part. These constructs are designed to replace lost limbs if magical healing is not available or if the user desires to have an improved replacement. The automotive mechanized bionic prosthetic arm has electrical motors, gears, & springs. The bionic arm is made with a full skeletal titanium frame with steel armor plating to protect the wires and intricate machinery inside. The automotive armored prosthetic bionic arm moves using synthetic muscles and fibers. It is a fully articulated prosthetic arm with multiple moving parts capable of manipulating even weapons.  Once the prosthetic is attuned to its user it will behave and act as the limb it replaces. It moves according to conscious and unconscious thoughts and commands from its user. This was a prosthetic intended to replace lost limbs and damaged organs. This advanced prosthetic replaced and enhanced the lost limb. The prosthetic bionic arm was painted to look like their real biological arm. First perfected by draenei, gnomes, dwarves, & goblins the armored automotive prosthetic bionic arms arms are now built by several master artificers, inventors, & engineers. The bionic arm provides an almost perfect semblance of full functionality but is quite expensive. The recovery time it took for the user to recover from the automotive armored prosthetic bionic arm after doctors and surgeons installed on their body took three to six months. It does not require an external energy source. It has a built-in battery. The automotive armored prosthetic bionic arm is electrical, steam, & gas powered. This prosthetic arm is also powered by small finely cut shining magical ruby, diamond, amethyst, onyx, pearl, malachite, sapphire, jasper, topaz, quartz, & emerald gemstones inserted throughout the bionic arm. The automotive armored prosthetic arm is also a magically enhanced bionic arm. This prosthetic bionic arm is made of steel, gold, silver, electrum, nickel, brass, palladium, titanium, platinum, & copper for durability. However, contemporary technological advancements have allowed certain automotive armored prosthetic bionic limbs to be composed of other materials  as to be less cumbersome and more durable than steel in abnormal conditions. Like wearers of normal prosthetics these users are subject to various aches and pains resulting from drastic changes in barometric pressure. However another drawback to full steel limbs are the adverse effects which occur in extreme conditions such as heat and cold. In extremely high temperatures the metals which conduct and retain heat induce great deals of discomfort to the user. Who must remain with a heated metal object grafted to the skin. In extremely cold temperatures the cold conducting metals cause standard oils to cease functioning as well as expedite frostbite damage to the connecting tissue. This prosthetic bionic arm is also made with a weave of chrome, fiberglass, aluminum, & carbon fiber for flexibility. This means that the bionic arm is also made of lighter more expensive alloys that is resistant to extreme temperature changes so the armored automotive prosthetic bionic arm no longer suffers the ill effects of certain extreme heat and extreme cold environments. This is a high quality prosthetic bionic replacement that is made to look life-like (at least at first glance). This artificial prosthetic limb is much less bulky than its counterparts. Since its frame more closely follows the contours of an organic biological limb. The exterior and interior of its chassis is lined with precious gemstones, crystals, metals, and complex arcane engravings. A powerful enchantment provides full sensory feedback to its user allowing all sorts of tasks to be accomplished with the limb. It was upgraded with large glowing red, blue, green, gold, silver, & violet bold magical crystals. The bionic arm comes with a built-in sonar to detect nearby enemies and allies. Some of the more creative and talented prosthetics inventors, artificers, & engineers have been known to include all sorts of devices in prosthetic limbs. Some ranging from helpful tools to dangerous weapons. Including some with questionable legality. Some intrepid amputees have even been known to tinker with their limbs on their own time. However you go about it, modifying an artificial limb requires great expertise and tends to be costly. The prosthetic bionic arm was later weaponized and upgraded with mithril, adamantine, etherium, & orichalcum metal for combat situations as a military grade augmentation. This makes the prosthetic arm built with a lot of durability and so would not break easily even with high output performances in combat. 

The prosthetic bionic arm amplifies the impact of their blows. The automotive armored arm exerts massive kinetic force when striking. The crystals on the back of the prosthetic hand and the palm of the bionic arm fire magical beam attacks. The armored automotive prosthetic bionic arm comes with a built in injection system with multicolored serums. These serums are contained in vials that are unknown glowing cardinal, cerulean, emerald, silver, tangerine, gold, & violet fluids. These serums are made from magical materials found throughout the federations, empires, & confederacies of humanoids such as the humans, fae elves, goblinoids, dwarves, giant kin, gnomes, draenei, dragon kin, avian people, serpent people, etc that is then ground up and mixed into concoctions, brews, potions, & elixirs. That when injected from the bionic prosthetic arm into the biological body through the injection system greatly enhances the user's strength, dexterity, speed, durability, perception, intelligence, endurance, agility, & flexibility at a supernatural level. The serum injection system also has a separate glowing obsidian vial that when injected into the user through the bionic arm with a time limit of a few minutes turns the user into a controlled berserker. Allowing them to fight at their fullest potential at a superhuman level without limits by weaponizing their inherent biology as a human with fae elf, goblinoid, & giant kin ancestry. It lets them release themselves of all rational restraints in battle that would even make a barbarian giant kin jealous. It lets them go into a controlled induced rage mode and combat enhanced mode but without the side effect of a berserker rage. It lets them immerse themselves completely in combat as a controlled berserker becoming a powerful ally for friends and a dangerous enemy for foes. As a controlled berserker they can tell the difference between ally and foe. They can ignore physical damage with pain suppression and injury immunity as if it never affected them and continue fighting past their limits but only for several minutes. It makes them unpredictable when fighting enemies and hard to counter. As a controlled berserker the user’s intelligence is not affected like a regular berserker. However the side effect is the severe backlash when the controlled berserker rage is over. The main side effect is while a user is only able to ignore the effects of pain and injuries while sustained in the berserker state. These injuries take full effect when they come out of the induced berserker rage once these chemicals wear off. They have to heal from the damage and pain on their own with their healing factor. The other is that it leaves the user exhausted for several minutes as they run out of endurance and stamina. This was given to them when they underwent experimentation to become a magical super soldier. These limbs are designed to serve another function in addition to their use as a limb. The prosthetic limb comes with multi tool functions and can be upgraded to include new gadgets with the help of artificers, inventors, engineers, & magic users. These additional functions can be used at will. This bionic and cybernetic enhancement bestowed new abilities to the wearer or improved the user in some fashion. The prosthetic arm is enhanced with aether and nether magic. The inside and outside of the magically enhanced bionic arm comes with hidden runes. However anti-magic fields or anti magical attacks will not disable these magical parts of the augment since the armored automotive prosthetic bionic arm is upgraded with rare and expensive enchanted metal alloys making it resistant to anti magic. Usually these limbs have a concealed weapon. So through the arm the user can summon and banish wrist mounted magical arm blades made out of heavenly steel and stellar titanium. The user can also summon a magical arm mounted quad barrelled Gatling minigun cannon through the runes to be attached to the bionic arm that shoots magical 7.76 mm heavy machine gun bullets. The magical Gatling gun is wielded by the user with a trigger and stabilized with a grip attachment. This makes the prosthetic bionic arm technomagical weaponry. This is a military-grade magic tech weapon. This prosthetic arm when not in use is usually hidden away in a medical sling. This masterwork crafted arm is of mythical mithril rarity. The automotive armored prosthetic bionic arm has been described as intricate, sleek, baroque, surrealistic, serpentine, circuitrois, vitric, neoteric, gleaming, lucent, ensorcellment, & emblazoned.

The automotive armored prosthetic bionic arm also comes with two  armored arm gauntlet power fists. These armored arm gauntlet power fists are spray painted scarlet, gold, sapphire, shamrock, alabaster, & obsidian. These arm gauntlets are  made out of mithril, darksteel, runite, uru, dark metal, orichalcum, chronoton, silverstone, saronite, adamantine, lerasium, netherite, & etherium. The arm gauntlets can be used to lift heavy objects like they are nothing. The arm gauntlets can be worn using their biological arm and their prosthetic bionic arm. The armed gauntlets come with violet spiked knuckles made out of divine iron, heavenly bronze, thunderbolt iron, stellar titanium, stygian iron, imperial gold, cold iron, & celestial steel to bludgeon enemies with unarmed attacks. The arm gauntlets also can be equipped with diamond tipped titanium claws modification for slashing enemies with metal claws. The armored arm gauntlet power fists were also implanted with fragments of celestials and infernals such as defeated demons and angels to allow the user secret upgrades and certain abilities. It is an impact gauntlet, a magic weapon capable of amplifying the impact of the user’s blows. The arm gauntlets each have three built in rocket thrusters installed in the elbow to allow the users to attack enemies with a rocket boosted punch. Allowing them to punch through even heavy armor class power armor worn by paladins. The arm gauntlet can also be fired using the rocket boosters in the elbow as a projectile attack. The arm gauntlets come with built in canisters that when used allows the user to use fire, lightning, explosive, toxic, & cryogenic attacks to explode, electrocute, incinerate, poison, stun, & freeze enemies. These power fists are what control and manipulate his/her/their suit of magical paladin heavy assault heavy class armor power armor. These power fists are what control and pilot his/her/their magical mech suit.

Tinder ‘Swipes Right’ on Gen Z-Inspired Global Campaign

Over its 10-year existence, Tinder has not only introduced the concept of “swiping” to indicate interest (or lack thereof) into the cultural lexicon; it has also sparked a reputation as a place where daters could find a noncommittal encounter—or as it’s known more widely, a “hookup.”

But now, the popular dating app is optimistic its new global campaign—and the strong user data that backs it—will cause that perception to flame out.

“It Starts with a Swipe,” the colorful new campaign created in partnership with AOR Mischief @ No Fixed Address, is Tinder’s first-ever global campaign, and features an all-inclusive cast of Gen Z daters—representing the app’s core membership and the various relationship categories they fall under.

Spanning across sexual, emotional, eco-friendly preferences and incorporating font treatments that evoke romance novel covers, imagery for the campaign includes taglines such as “Someone to Go to Heaven With,” “Comfortable Silences” and “Someone to Save the Planet With. ” Two 15-second videos, “Toothbrush” and “One Night Stand,” touch on relationship milestones, with clever copy on the latter declaring “Some Tinder dates turn into one-night stands. But some turn into Two nightstands” with an amorous club encounter morphing into a furniture shopping excursion.

Visuals for the campaign were shot by LA-based hybrid photo-digital artist Pol Kurucz, with digital videos being directed by male/female directing duo Los Perez for Biscuit Filmworks—a 50/50 male/female co-owned production company that also produced Uber’s recent Superbowl spot starring Diddy.

“We were really intentional on wanting to Hero the word ‘Swipe,’” Stephanie Danzi, Tinder’s svp of marketing, told Adweek. “It remains the easiest, most fun way and fast way to meet new people”

Danzi anecdotally shared with Adweek that she and her team were encouraged that they were on the right track when many of the team on set—which she and the company emphasized was heavily female, BIPOC and LGBTQ+—redownloaded the app. She also mentioned that the company has taken great measures to ensure the app provides a safe and healthy experience for all users, especially marginalized communities.

“When I think about what we want this campaign to do, it’s really that we want people to feel seen, and see themselves reflected,” she said.

lol not to get all wild or anything but like what if dc / marvel / media based on books chose to uplift and portray heroes / characters that were originally BIPOC instead of just casting previously white heroes as BIPOC. lmao. like poc black canary is cool but u know what i would go BUCK FUCKING WILD FOR? a fucking cass cain movie. xombi. silk. judomaster. black lightning. kaldur’ahm. a properly mediterranean donna troy. romani dick grayson. duke. female dr light. MARTIAN FUCKING MANHUNTER. CYBORG. JEWISH HAL JORDAN. JOHN GODDAMN STEWART. JESSICA CRUZ. JAIME REYES. like yeah it’s nice that for once ppl are getting representation but man!! wouldn’t it be cool!! if we got actually BIPOC heroes!! and not some white fucking director dude going ‘”we can make [this formerly white character] BIPOC but not actually talk about their culture or the connotations this would mean about the character. yeah we can make this character BIPOC but we won’t talk about their culture or background. minorities can have a little representation. as a treat.” 

don’t get me wrong. i love that we get (some) representation. but i wanna see characters that have been minority from the start. i want them written by people who know what it’s like to be a minority. i don’t want a random formerly white character written by some pissboy white c*shet greasy soft boy who’s only doing this for the tokenization.

Why the "Regency Era" is a fantasy realm

I've seen some interesting discussions back and forth about making historical fiction and particularly historical romance more inclusive, and I do think that there's some merit to the argument that merely inserting BIPOC as part of the ruling class erases many of the historic struggles people went through in terms of both class and race.

However, there's something that people don't seem to realize when it comes to the Regency Era: it's a fantasy realm that was primarily created by a single author.

Just as J.R.R. Tolkien published his Lord of the Rings books and created a world that would loom over the fantasy genre for decades to come, Georgette Heyer created the Regency Era in a way that I think people looking at the romance genre from the outside don't really understand.

Heyer wrote several historical romances and mystery novels prior to 1935, but it was with Regency Buck that she introduced her version of the Regency Era, a version that has actually been far more influential in popular culture than that of Jane Austen. (Most of the Austen adaptations pull more from Heyer than people realize, especially in terms of manners.) Heyer's world is all polite society heroes with a stiff upper lip and perhaps a tinge of rakishness, spirited yet virginal heroines, and a cast of supporting characters that range from younger brothers to elderly aunts.

There are very few hints that anyone outside the aristocracy is of any consequence, or even knows how to behave themselves, even when the middle-class daughter of a rich "Cit" marries an impoverished aristocrat in A Civil Contract. Sex exists, but only behind firmly closed doors and, for the heroines, only after marriage.

And what about the minorities that we know lived in Great Britain during the Regency Era? Not just the racial minorities that included Black citizens and former slaves as well as Indian immigrants, but also religious minorities? They pretty much don't exist in Heyer's world, apart from a few anti-Semitic stereotypes of rapacious Jewish moneylenders that make modern readers cringe when they stumble across an unbowdlerized edition. There are a few jokes and whispers about "unmanly" men, but that's about it for LGBTQIA+ representation as well.

Given what we now know about the Regency Era -- and we know a lot more than Heyer did when she was writing almost a hundred years ago -- we know that her view of Regency society was as artificial as Tolkien's world. Despite her use of historical sources, her romance novels are set in a fantasy world that melds the fashions and historical events of the Regency with the Victorian morals and mores that Heyer herself was raised with. The Regency Era was the late Georgian Era and was far more vulgar and free-wheeling than Heyer was willing to admit. She left out the people who didn't fit into her vision of the Regency, which showed an Anglo-Saxon ruling class that deserved to rule because of their natural superiority.

So my opinion about TV shows and films like Bridgerton and Mr. Malcolm's List that show an inclusive aristocracy in the Regency Era is ... well, it's all fantasy anyway, isn't it? Why not make the fantasy inclusive since the whole era is Heyer's illusion dressed up with a few historical details?

And if you want to try and argue that Heyer was historically accurate about everything, be prepared: I have sources that Heyer either ignored or did not have available to her. Look up Benjamin Silliman's 1803 journal of his trip to Great Britain sometime.

Our Flag Means Jesus Christ Superstar

At C2E2 on Sunday, Con O'Neill shared that he and Taika both thought of Jesus Christ Superstar and the famously-charged relationship between Jesus and Judas in that show when thinking about the relationship between Ed and Izzy in Our Flag Means Death. (He also said they scream-sang to the soundtrack together on their first day in the makeup trailer and I would give my non-existent left nut for any footage of this event.)

Here's the video:

This set my brain on fire because I am an extreme and obnoxious lifelong Jesus Christ Superstar fan and one of the first goofy things I did in OFMD fandom was casting a JCS AU. As my brain burned, I started thinking about all of the parallels between JCS and OFMD.

So, presenting Way Too Much Thought about Andrew Lloyd Webber and Tim Rice's Rock Opera about the Crucifixion of Jesus Christ and David Jenkins' There's No Heterosexual Explanation for this Story of Blackbeard and Stede Bonnet! I am not at all religious, so if you're looking for any takes on whether or not Edward Teach is actually God, you've come to the wrong place. I am merely a woman with an English degree and too much time on my hands.

Since we all know the plot points of OFMD, I am going to do this by JCS song. If you're unfamiliar with JCS, the wiki is below. Basically, though, it is a rock opera about the days leading up to Jesus' crucifixion, released as a concept album in 1970. Eventually it was staged, there are two movies (ignore the awful 2000 version), John Legend was Jesus on the live TV version, it tours all over, and it is Incredibly Campy. The relationship between Jesus and Judas is famously charged, and different productions choose to take that to different levels.

I'm going to use the album songs (with one notable exception) and visuals from the 1973 movie.

At its core, I see JCS as being about the conflict between Judas and Mary Magdalene and their versions of an ideal Jesus. Sound familiar? It's telling Jesus' story, but it does so via the interpersonal and internal conflicts these two people had during the last days of his life.

Ed is Jesus - For years, he has been leading a movement. He has reached a moment where the masses are seeing him as a mythical figure, King of the Jews/Blackbeard, but he's not sure that is what he wants.

Izzy is Judas - Our guy's right hand man. He has been there since the start and sees himself as a protector as well as someone with an outside perspective on the hero. Izzy wants Ed to continue being the myth of Blackbeard because it is the way they will survive. Judas, conversely, wants Jesus to take it down a notch because he is becoming too much of a myth and that will get him killed.

Stede is Mary Magdalene - (I'm not a prostitute, mate!) The new person to the group, offering our hero a way forward that does not have the weight of the world on his shoulders. Stede offers Ed retirement and a soft life. Mary offers Jesus a soft and comfortable life as well, but it is one where he does take up the mantle as the Son of God.

(A Note before we get going. Both Our Flag Means Death and the 1973 Jesus Christ Superstar film star BIPOC actors: Taika Waititi as Blackbeard, Ben Vereen as Judas, and Yvonne Elliman as Mary Magdalene. This is fundamentally part of the stories the productions tell. People far more qualified than I have written about Edward Teach as a Maori man, the diverse OFMD cast, and about the diverse casting traditions in Jesus Christ Superstar. There is a deep dive to be written about the race of these six principle actors (and their supporting casts) and how that impacts these stories when JCS is read as an influence on OFMD. Without the qualifications to take that on, I am sticking essentially to song lyrics and script. I realize this is a huge gap in this analysis, and I would love for someone to help me fill it!)

We're skipping the Overture because it's just an overture and it is very good but still. You can listen to it if you want.

Heaven on their Minds

The show opens with Judas. Jesus, the apostles, Mary, and co. are together outside of Jerusalem, and Judas is concerned about the level of fame they are reaching and the danger Jesus is in from authorities.

Listen Jesus I don't like what I see.

All I ask is that you listen to me.

And remember, I've been your right hand man all along.

You have set them all on fire.

They think they've found the new Messiah.

And they'll hurt you when they find they're wrong.

Of course, the big difference here is that Judas wants Jesus to tone it down so he doesn't get hurt, whereas Izzy is trying to keep Ed as Blackbeard going so he doesn't get hurt.

What's the Buzz/Strange Thing Mystifying

The Apostles want to know what's happening. When are we leaving, who are we fighting, etc. While they bother Jesus, Mary is trying to comfort him.

Mary that is good,

While you prattle through your supper,

Where and when and who and how.

She alone has tried to give me

What I need right here and now.

Here we introduce the foil to Izzy/Judas. Almost immediately, with his finery and his lunacy, Stede offers Ed a different way of life.

You're a fucking lunatic and I like it.

We also get the first conflict between Mary and Judas, when Judas attacks Jesus for allowing Mary to comfort him.

It seems to me a strange thing, mystifying

That a man like you can waste his time on women of her kind.

Yes, I can understand that she amuses,

But to let her kiss you, stroke your hair, that's hardly in your line.

It's not that I object to her profession,

But she doesn't fit in well with what you teach and say.

It doesn't help us if you're inconsistent.

They only need a small excuse to put us all away.

Izzy, of course, immediately wants Stede out of the picture. He wants Stede out of the picture so badly he tries to sabotage them from the start. He doesn't respect Stede as a man or as a pirate, and is worried about what associating with Stede will do to Blackbeard's reputation.

Jesus stands up for Mary's presence, just like Ed decides they're staying on Stede's ship for now.

Who are you to criticize her?

Who are you to despise her?

Leave her, leave her, let her be now.

Leave her, leave her, she's with me now.

If your slate is clean, then you can throw stones.

If your slate is not, then leave her alone.

"Sorry not sorry." - Jesus/Ed.

Everything's Alright

Mary's first big number! She is soothing a stressed Jesus, offering him myrrh ointment (fine things!) and the idea that he deserves to be taken care of.

Sleep and I shall soothe you, calm you, and anoint you.

Myrrh for your hot forehead, oh.

Then you'll feel

Everything's alright, yes, everything's fine.

And it's cool, and the ointment's sweet

For the fire in your head and feet.

Close your eyes, close your eyes

And relax, think of nothing tonight.

Of course, Judas doesn't want this version of Jesus. He wants to get back to their roots, sees the use of the ointment on Jesus as a waste, and doesn't like a version of Jesus that is the pampered son of God.

Woman your fine ointment, brand new and expensive

Should have been saved for the poor.

Why has it been wasted? We could have raised maybe

Three hundred silver pieces or more.

People who are hungry, people who are starving

They matter more than your feet and hair!

We see this most/first in the clothes-swap scene, where Izzy is just so disgusted by the idea of Ed being anything other than Blackbeard that he literally leaves. Jesus stands up for Mary against Judas and says she's staying and Judas has to deal with it. Ed stands up for Stede and says they're staying on the Revenge and Izzy just has to deal with it.

The clothes swap scene is not the only sequence where Stede comforts Ed, of course. Just as Mary takes it upon herself to comfort Jesus at pretty much every opportunity, Stede becomes that comfort for Ed. The panic attack after the Fuckery is Stede reassuring Ed that the weight of being Blackbeard does not have to be on his shoulders. He can relax and sleep well, because Stede sees the real him. He's willing to forget a whole entire murder plot for Ed.

And more! We have two concrete "fine things" being used for pleasure here - myrrh ointment and marmalade. Both Judas and Izzy see waste and carelessness where Mary and Stede see the value in indulgence. And both Judas and Izzy want the fine things gone for more practical things. Judas wants to sell the ointment to give the money to the poor, what he argues is Jesus' whole original message. The marmalade, of course, is taking the place of literal gunpowder that pirates need to, you know, survive.

I will also just point out that "marmalade" and "myrrh ointment" sound... not really very similar but at least both start with M.

This Jesus Must Die

The authorities in Jerusalem want this rabble-rouser Jesus out of the picture. They're very moody and discussing what to do with him, deciding that he needs to die to send a message. We don't really see this happening about Blackbeard until the very end of the show, but we can assume based on the whole Being A Notorious Pirate Thing that the English authorities would do anything to take him down.

The important thing here is that Ed and Jesus are both wanted men. Izzy/Judas and Stede/Mary are offering conflicting ways to stay alive. Both think they have the solution and are trying to woo their guys to their sides.

Hosanna and Simon Zealotes/Poor Jerusalem

First of all, these are bops. Just getting that out of the way. Hosanna is Jesus entering Jerusalem and Simon Zealotes/Poor Jerusalem is the masses worshipping him, basically. Our OFMD parallel is Blackbeard with his Nine Guns - The myth of the hero far outstrips the man at this point. But what is he going to do about it?

Jesus warns the worshippers that things are about to get bad. Blackbeard starts thinking maybe he'll steal Stede's identity and sail off into the sunset.

If you knew all that I knew, my poor Jerusalem,

You'd see the truth, but you close your eyes.

But you close your eyes.

While you live, your troubles are many, poor Jerusalem.

To conquer death, you only have to die.

You only have to die.

Hmmm what's that, Jesus? We have to die to get out of this? You don't say.

Pilate's Dream

Pilate has a premonition that he's about to go down in history as The Bad Guy who Killed Jesus. (Yup.)

Then I saw thousands of millions

Crying for this man.

And then I heard them mentioning my name,

And leaving me the blame.

Badminton declares he's going to get vengeance on some Cat Bandits.

On my honor, I’ll ride these “Cat Bandits” straight into hell.

There are people hunting down our hero, in other words.

The Temple

In this scene, Jesus finds that a temple is being used for basically everything other than worship and he flips his lid and clears all of the sinners out. It is Very Dramatic.

What happens next is what parallels to OFMD, though. After the heathens are cleared from the temple, Jesus is surrounded by people with leprosy begging him to heal them. It's eerie and A Lot.

See my eyes, I can hardly see.

See me stand, I can hardly walk.

I believe you can make me whole.

See my tongue, I can hardly talk.

See my skin, I'm a mass of blood.

See my legs, I can hardly stand.

I believe you can make me well.

See my purse, I'm a poor, poor man.

Will you touch, will you mend me Christ?

Won't you touch, will you heal me Christ?

Will you kiss, you can cure me Christ?

Won't you kiss, won't you pay me Christ?

Jesus tries his best to heal them, but ultimately panics.

There's too many of you...Don't push me.

There's too little of me...Don't crowd me.

Heal yourselves!

What does this have to do with Ed? I hope you're asking that since you've read this far. The beggars are... Calico Jack! And not because he is a walking embodiment of disease. This sequence represents Jesus making his choice - is he going to be Judas' version of Jesus or Mary's? Is he taking on the mantle of Son of God or is he going relax it a bit? Calico Jack is a similar turning point for Ed. Is he going to be the old Blackbeard, or is he going to stick with Stede? Jesus hasn't really made his choice here - he tries to fix the temple and heal everyone but he is still overwhelmed. Of course, we know what Ed chose.

Everything's Alright (Reprise)

A bop. A reminder that Stede and Mary are going to take care of their men. Thanks, Mary. Thanks, Stede.

I Don't Know How to Love Him

Just imagine Stede singing this about Ed. That's it, that's the comparison.

I don't know how to love him.

What to do, how to move him.

I've been changed, yes really changed.

In these past few days, when I've seen myself,

I seem like someone else.

I don't know how to take this.

I don't see why he moves me.

...

Yet, if he said he loved me,

I'd be lost. I'd be frightened.

I couldn't cope, just couldn't cope.

I'd turn my head. I'd back away.

I wouldn't want to know.

He scares me so.

I want him so.

I love him so.

To elaborate a little, what's key here is Mary realizing that she is also being changed by loving Jesus and that they are on a path together now. She realizes that she is in awe of the myth of Jesus but in love with the man.

Damned for All Time/Blood Money

Judas turning in Jesus to the authorities. He's panicking. The only way to save Jesus is to give him up and hope that he is able to survive. He has even deluded himself into thinking that Jesus will actually be glad that he's made this decision.

Now if I help you, it matters that you see

These sordid kinda things are coming hard to me.

It's taken me some time to work out what to do.

I weighed the whole thing out before I came to you.

I have no thought at all about my own reward.

I really didn't come here of my own accord.

Just don't say I'm ... damned for all time.

I came because I had to; I'm the one who saw.

Jesus can't control it like he did before.

And furthermore I know that Jesus thinks so too.

Jesus wouldn't mind that I was here with you.

I have no thought at all about my own reward.

I really didn't come here of my own accord.

Just don't say I'm ... damned for all time.

Annas, you're a friend, a worldly man and wise.

Caiaphas, my friend, I know you sympathize.

Why are we the prophets? Why are we the ones

Who see the sad solution - know what must be done?

I have no thought at all about my own reward.

I really didn't come here of my own accord.

Just don't say I'm damned for all time.

Sound like someone we know?

The Last Supper

Oh here we go, things are heating up. Of course, The Last Supper is The Last Supper. The apostles have a lovely song about how they want to write everything down so people will talk about them when they die. That's a normal way to talk about your friend, right?

Fanfiction and the start of the Eucharist aside, The Last Supper is when Jesus announces to the team that he knows what they've been up to. He says that soon Peter will deny him and that he knows Judas has betrayed him.

Of course, when Izzy goes off to sell Ed out, Ed doesn't know it's happening because he is not a prophet. But I made this anyway because it works.

JESUS: Peter will deny me in just a few hours.

Three times will deny me,

And that's not all I see.

One of you here dining,

One of my twelve chosen

Will leave to betray me.

JUDAS: Cut out the dramatics!

You know very well who.

JUDAS: To think I admired you.

Well now I despise you.

This song also reinforces Judas' conviction that Jesus wants him to do this. Judas believes he is acting in both of their best interests and that turning Jesus in will stop the train and everything will be fine. Izzy truly believes that he is only selling out Stede. Stede has done something to his boss' brain, and once he's out of the picture Ed will go back to normal.

Gethsemane (I Only Want to Say)

Jesus leaves his sleeping apostles and goes off to, basically, freak out and yell at his dad who is God.

I only want to say,

If there is a way,

Take this cup away from me

For I don't want to taste its poison.

Feel it burn me,

I have changed.

I'm not as sure, as when we started.

After walking around yelling at Dad a bit, he gets it out of his system and gets back on track. This is where he chooses to be a martyr.

By accepting his martyrdom, he might be accepting Judas' betrayal on the surface, but he's actually accepting Mary's version of himself. The authorities aren't going to slap him on the wrist and let him go. They are going to kill him, as we all know. That is what Mary was actually pulling for, even though she didn't realize it at the time.

This is akin to when Ed calls for the Act of Grace. In that moment, Izzy's plan falls apart - calling the British isn't going to save Blackbeard, it's going to destroy him. And this is what Stede was actually pulling for, even though he didn't realize it at the time.

Alright, I'll die!

Just watch me die!

See how I die!

...

God, thy will is hard,

But you hold every card.

I will drink your cup of poison.

Nail me to your cross and break me,

Bleed me, beat me,

Kill me.

Take me, now!

Before I change my mind.

The Arrest

Judas, must you betray me with a kiss?

Judas famously kisses Jesus to identify him to the Roman soldiers. If you are Going For It in your production of Jesus Christ Superstar, this can be very lustful. This is a man who loves his hero giving him up to the people that have been chasing him, probably realizing as he does it that things are about to go Very Wrong but having no way to stop it.

Peter's Denial

People who saw Jesus being led away see Peter and Mary, and accuse Peter of being an accomplice of that rabble-rouser Jesus. He denies knowing him three times.

Welp.

Pilate and Christ

Oh, Pilate, if only you remembered your little premonition. This is basically a song just to explain why Pilate doesn't have jurisdiction over Jesus and is sending him to...

King Herod's Song (Try it and See)

This song is, in a word, chaotic. King Herod tells Jesus he'll spare his life if Jesus admits to calling himself King of the Jews. It's very campy. It's amazing.

Herod demands Jesus perform miracles, Jesus won't do it, and Herod sends him back to Pilate to deal with because he decides Jesus is a fraud. This one really doesn't match up in OFMD. Oh well!

Could We Start Again Please

Meanwhile, in the movie and on the stage, Peter and Mary lead a song freaking out about what's happening. They've realized this whole thing went too far and Jesus is about to be killed, and are asking to start over.

This is Stede realizing slowly at the Privateering Academy that he has ruined Blackbeard. This comes out of order in the shows, but I'm going by JCS order. So I'm also doing the gifs in JCS order instead of OFMD order.

I've been living to see you

Dying to see you but it shouldn't be like this

This was unexpected, what do I do now?

Oh, could we start again, please?

Could we start again, please?

I've been very hopeful so far

Now for the first time I think we're going wrong

Hurry up and tell me, this is all a dream

Or could we start again, please?

Could we start again, please?

I think you've made your point now

You've even gone a bit too far to get your message home

Before it gets too frightening, we ought to call a halt

So could we start again please?

Could we start again please?

Judas' Death

Of course, Izzy doesn't die, and Judas does. Dramatically, after first running back to the authorities and trying to undo what he did.

I don't believe he knows I acted for our good

I'd save him all this suffering if I could!

Don't believe ... our good ... save him ... if I could

Izzy may not die, but he certainly has a moment where he realizes Ed is giving everything up and his plan has failed. Izzy is forced to watch Ed sign away ten human years to the British, and it is because of what Izzy did.

Christ! I know you can't hear me

But I only did what you wanted me to

Christ! I'd sell out the nation

For I have been saddled with the murder of you

Even more tragically, Judas reprises Mary's "I Don't Know How to Love Him." Imagine Izzy singing this in a deleted scene where he watches Ed and Stede be rowed away from the Revenge.

I don't know how to love him

I don't know why he moves me

He's a man - he's just a man

He's not a king - he's just the same

As anyone I know

He scares me so

When he's cold and dead, will he let me be?

Does he love me too? Does he care for me?

Ow. Sorry Iz.

Trial Before Pilate

It's a trial. Before Pilate. Some other guys go on trial, maybe you've heard of them.

Jesus stoically accepts his punishments, first the 39 lashes and then the crucifixion. Ed is also stoic when he thinks he's the only one in trouble, and of course after Stede is in danger he's not so stoic. Mary isn't crucified, so that doesn't really line up, but it's still two trials. Not much else to say here, really.

Superstar

The Big Number!

This is our climax, Judas in heaven appearing to Jesus and asking him, was it worth it? Shouldn't you have listened to me and ditched that Mary lady? (And why did you decide to come down to earth when you did instead of in 1971 when we have mass media? And also, is Buddha all he's cracked up to be? (It was the 70s, what do you want.))

Episode 10, of course, has the confrontation between Izzy and Ed. Is it worth it, being Stede's version of you? Can you survive like this? Where is the real Blackbeard?

And, who is Blackbeard, anyway?

Jesus Christ, Jesus Christ,

Who are you? What have you sacrificed?

Jesus Christ Superstar,

Do you think you're what they say you are?

The Crucifixion

Also known as:

Obviously, Ed doesn't die, and Jesus, you know, famously does.

But Ed does bury the soft part of himself, Stede's part, in an effort to continue on as Blackbeard.

And, let's not forget, Jesus does also famously un-die.

Let's hope that bodes well for Ed in Season 2.

Final Thoughts

As I got to the end, I started thinking about the "winners" and "losers" in the Judas/Mary and Izzy/Stede conflicts, such as anyone can really be declared a winner when the end result is the willing self-destruction of the person they love.

Jesus is silent before Pilate and Herod, knowing that God's plan is playing out as was intended. Could he have changed it, had he listened to Judas? Could he have prevented Judas' fate had he filled his closest confidante in? But if he had done that, would Judas still have played the role he had to play? (I'm not a religious scholar so I don't have the slightest idea. I'm just a woman with an English degree and too much time to think about OFMD and Jesus Christ Superstar.) In turning away from Judas' warnings and accepting Mary's version of himself - the one that is allowed comfort and rest and to be "just a man" albeit briefly - Jesus accepts that he'll die. Then, after everything and not portrayed in this show, he comes back to life as Mary's version. Judas goes down in history as, well, Judas. (Not even going into what's happened to Mary's reputation because do I look like Dan Brown to you? She doesn't win, either, is all I'm saying.)

Then we have Ed, who quite literally sheds Izzy's version. He signs his pirate life away for ten human years in order to be allowed comfort, rest, and to be "Just Ed." Shaves his beard, kisses his man, makes a plan to run away. That's the "death" he accepted. It's even the "death" he tries to continue when he returns to the Revenge, only to be shaken back to "life" as Blackbeard by Izzy. Stede won briefly, but then Izzy gets a second shot. And we end with Ed reembodying the myth. I don't subscribe to the framing that Ed, Blackbeard, and The Kraken are different people - they're all facets of Edward Teach. Will his ultimate "resurrection" be an acceptance that the real Edward is some mix of all of these versions? With neither Stede nor Izzy the "winner" of that battle?

That's it!! "It."

Common Arguments I Hear From People Who Believe Percy & Annabeth *MUST* Be Cast as White and My Rebuttal

“Well you wouldn’t cast a white person to play Hazel!”

Yeah, because Hazel is explicitly stated to be black, while Percy isn’t and her race plays a big role in her backstory, and who she is as a character- same with almost every other POC in the story. Percy and Annabeth’s race doesn’t play an important role in their arcs or backstories. Also, white people have plenty of representation, BIPOC don’t. Whitewashing one of the few black characters we have is not the same as making a character who’s white or racially ambiguous BIPOC.

“Annabeth is blonde!”

Have you not heard of hair dye? You do realize that many people of color have blonde hair, right? But for real, a lot of you people act like it would be the worst thing in the world if Annabeth wasn’t cast as blonde, which leads me to my next point.

“Annabeth being blonde plays a large role in her struggle, as she wasn’t taken seriously because of it!”

Not even going to comment on that actual part of the story, because there were alot of issues people had with it, but it wasn’t even a large part of her story- it was briefly mentioned in one book in the second. A lot more things contributed to Annabeth’s struggle than her being blonde, like the neglect she experienced as a child, her hubris, and her abandonment issues.

Also, you don’t think WOC don’t experience the same exact thing? The same struggles Annabeth has because she is blonde, WOC feel because they aren’t white! To a much larger degree! It wouldn’t be that hard to change and adapt her story, and it really wouldn’t change much about it.

“But the official art!”

You guys already know my rebuttal for this, but I’ll say it again for anyone who is new- official art isn’t canon. It is basically fanart (fan interpretations) that Rick paid to have on his wall. Fans are still allowed to interpret the story however they want, and they can still cast anyone for the series. Official art doesn’t necessarily make something canon.

“The cast of characters is so diverse, why take away more white characters?”

Yes, Heroes of Olympus is diverse, but that’s still five seasons away, and there is no guarantee that we’ll even get Heroes of Olympus. What’s the harm of making a character in PJO non-white in the meantime, when white people already have so much representation?

Anyways, I don’t care if you don’t headcanon them as POC, but please stop insisting they have to be white.

The fact that our final girl Deena is a black, queer woman is not virtue signaling, nor is it forced diversity. It is a choice. An intersectional identity which is often used as collateral damage in movies (especially horror movies) and represents one of the most targeted identities in real life is given the role of the hero and the survivor in Fear Street and carries the bulk of the plot throughout all three movies. The dual role that Kiana Madeira is given in the series only strengthens the real life repercussions of the horror that follows our protagonists until the end of the story. ..... Solomon Goode says that he made the deal with the devil because he felt that he deserved the good fortune that he had believed he would receive in America. He believes he is owed a good and easy life. And yes, it is sad that he lost his wife and child, but the sentiment that he is owed happiness at the expense of the lives and the happiness of others is what makes him a monster. Every death that occurs as a result of his actions feeds the curse with blood and so his fortune will grow as others suffer. The worst part is that he still sees himself as a victim in this situation. As it turns out Sarah Fier was actually the victim. The fact that it was a queer woman who was blamed for the actions of an entitled white man for hundreds of years echoes the demonization of minorities throughout history and makes this story even more tragic. ...... When Deena kills Nick, he sees her as Sarah, and truly it is her influence that eventually stops him and saves Shadyside. The fact that the surviving characters include three black people and two queer people is a powerful statement both realistically and cinematically. By this point, nearly every trope we have been set up to believe has been broken. The POC in the cast are not used as collateral. The queer relationship is not doomed. The kindly white police officer is a monster, and the witch is an innocent. It is interesting to consider who trusts Officer Nick Goode from the beginning and who is immediately suspicious of him. I am a white woman, and I Iiked Nick at first; that’s not to say that most BIPOC might see him differently from the very beginning. Because the truth is, in our world, the queer woman is rarely the villain, true evil is born from white male entitlement.

Fear Street: true evil is born from white male entitlement

[lazy-cat-corner]

Actually let me pull out my bachelors degree for a moment and explain why sci-fi films benefit and hold back POC!

When the sci-fi genre was brought to television (Star Trek) it was a groundbreaking moment for diversity in television! Not only did it give the show runners opportunity to cast black actors and POC because the show took place in a parallel world where discrimination was not a problem, it opened the door to tell stories that made controversial topics easy to digest.

Because in the sci-fi genre, you need multiple races/cultures/species to tell a good story. In space nobody looks the same. Fascism, racism, bigotry, sexism. All those topics that were taboo on TV could be retold in a different format. They didn’t have to say “black” to tell a story about racism. They could make an alien race that was being treated unfairly to show white audiences how cruel racism can be. People were shocked that the show was bold enough to go there. There was lots of criticism but praise too because using fictional scenarios is an easier way for people to cope with challenging topics.

So this quickly became a common trope in sci-fi. Alien race not treated fairly starts a revolution. They’re branded as “violent” or “barbaric” until our heroes get to know them and learn they’re not different and simply demand respect. A character learns they’re half of this race and feel shame/worry they’d be treated differently but their friends reassure them they don’t discriminate and love their friend all the same.

This is where I argue this trope is not really relevant in modern film. Film has advanced so much in storytelling where we no longer need this trope to talk about these topics. To be blunt, it no longer represents our modern world. It has been overused so many times, it has lost its meaning. Show writers have forgotten its purpose and we get watered down versions of the initial template.

So as you can see, Loki’s story is not new. It’s not challenging or groundbreaking for its time. It’s a trope. A trope that can still bring up conversation. But to say Loki being a frost giant represents POC is not accurate. There are better ways to represent BIPOC in film and using an alien race is outdated and overdone.
