Eden

Nagisa: Absol (mega). Grimsnarl. Togepi. Gigalith. Carbink. Archen. Hiyori: Absol. Hattene. Togetic. Sprigatito (shiny). Lillipup Ibara: Absol. Morgrem. Arbok. Gimmighoul. Jun: Absol. Hatterm. Mightyena

Eden has a dark and elegant style so I was searching among dark types. I was choosing between Absol and Liepard. Absol is dark type but more majestic (and should be psychic or get fairy type), and Liepard has a similar color-palette with Eden (dark color with yellow). I decided on Absol. I thinks, it fits more.

For Adam and Eve I was trying to find gender-based forms or evolution but none of them looked fitting for them. So I went with Grimsnarl and Hatterm which were made as counterparts for each other.

Togepi is left after Fine. Togepi did not evolve during fine, Nagisa just thinks it’s cute like that (Ibara goes not think it's cute, it runs everywhere, he needs to look over it and it's driving him insane). Nagisa loves rocks and fossils. For rocks, cool rock with his color palette and cute rock-fairy would do the trick. Also their differences fit Nadisa’s stoic and serious outside and cheerful almost child-like inside. Also, Gigalith helps with mining. I wanted to give him Sableye, but it eats gems and hunts Carbinks as prey, so hard no. For fossils it was hard deciding on one. I went with Archen, I thought it would fit Nagisa’s silliness and trouble with self-identity. Another option was Aurorus for its elegance.

Lillipup = Bloody Mary

Togetic left after fine. Sprigattito does not have much thoughts other than “Shiny’s colors literally Hiyori’s colors”. Hiyori does have a lot of plants tho. I was thinking of the final form, Mewscarada, but I think Hiyori would like more cute mons, then strong ones.

Ardok is a snake. Gimmighoul because money. I was thinking between it and it’s evolution, Gholndego, but the image of Gimmighoul in chest sitting on table while Ibara working was too hard to pass.

Jun does not feel like someone with many mons so I stopped on just the hyena pokemon, Mightyena. Jun had it as Poochyena which evolved after forming Eve.

Valkyrie

Shu: Klinklang. Florges. Tarountula. Magearna (Pokeball). Mika: Klank. Mimikyu. Banette.

Valkyrie’s symbol is gears, and Klink’s line is the only gear pokemon.

Florges is from the Kalos region which is based on France. It’s elegant, feminine and Floette resembles of a doll. Almost all Shu’s interest in one. Red flowers one describes as being able to heal both body and spirit. Shu needs it. Tarountula is the only pokemon that I could think of for knitting. I don’t want to give anyone legendary or mythical pokemon but Magearna is so perfect for Shu! So he can have mythical. As a treat.

Mimikyu is a lonely pokemon who made its rag by itself. Pretty fitting for Mika. I imagine Mimikyu’s cover being torn and Mika fixing it. Also Mimikyu might be based on lovecraftian horror. Perfect. Banette is an abandoned doll that turned into pokemon. Also it’s category is Marionette pokemon.

2wink

Hinata: Toxtricity (Amped). Ambipom. Slurpuff Yuta: Toxtricity (Low Key). Aipom. Scovillan

2wink like acrobatics. Acrobatics is an actual move, but a lot of pokemon who can learn it are just fast. Ambipom and Aipom are only acrobatic enough.

I was searching for “twin” pokemons and found Toxtricty only fitting ones. Their form depends on nature, so perfect. Also their bright colors work with 2winks bright palette.

Also i wanted to give them opposite pokemons. Hinata loves sweet cream puffs and Yuta loves spice. So pokemon based on sweet cream dessert and chilly pepper pokemon will go!

Crazy:B

Rinne: Vespiquen. Flapple. Dragonite. HiMERU: Combee. Inteleon. Zoroark. Kohaku: Combee. Cherrim. Hisuian Samurott. Niki: Combee. Appletun (shiny). Alcremie. Munchlax.

There’s little to non bees pokemon… Crazy:B’s symbol is honeycomb so bee pokemon whose design is also heavily based on combs is perfect. Beedrill also worked due to being a poison type, but I see it more like a wasp (and don’t want to give them Kakuna or Weedle).

Rinne gave Niki shiny Applin. When they formed Idol duo Niki-the-airhead-the-oblivious noticed what other units had the same pokemons and suggested Rinne get his own Applin. 

I wanted to find a pokemon who would work as “the village ruler’s family gets that pokemon and trains it”. I decided to go with pseudo-legendary ones and Dragonite fits the most (powerful but friendly, asian-based). It was Dragonair when Rinne ran away and evolved before the main story. Flapple has the ability Hustle which kinda fits Rinne.

I wanted to give two pokemons to HiMERU, one being Kaname’s, another his own. Inteleon has a similar color palette to him (esp fs1) so it was chosen as Kaname’s pokemon. When Kaname enrolled in Reimei it was Sobble, then it evolved in Drizzile, and under Oremeru it evolved in Inteleon. Oremeru grew up abroad so I wanted Pokemon from not-japan based regions. Zoroark cast illusions on itself and was described to be extremely protective of loved ones, even holding grudges on those who hurt loved ones. Perfect.

For Kohaku I went with only japanese-based pokemons. Kohaku has various associations with sakura so the only sakura-based pokemon, Cherrim, is his. For him being trained to do “dirty work” I went with Hisuian Samurott. Unovan Samurott is based on samurai, but Hisuian most likely based on ronin.

Munchlax is all about eating so it would be stupid to not give it to Niki. Although, I almost did not give it to Niki. The thought of needing to feed both Niki and Munchlax who “needs to consume its own weight (231,5 lbs or 105 kg) in food every day” was terrifying. For cooking I search for every pokemon with any reference to food. There is not much not-sweet food pokemons, surprisingly.  I stopped on Appletun and Alcremie. Appletun is friendly and kids eat skin on its back as snacks (*cough* in Galar it is a custom to give an Applin, its pre-evolution, as a romantic gesture *cough*). Alcremie treats trainers who she likes with berries, many patisserie chiefs seek Alcremie as their partners and her cream is described to bring happiness to anyone who eats them. I was thinking of more pokemons (like slowpoke and clauncher), but Niki definitely would not have a lot of them (he had two before meeting Rinne and was thinking it's more than enough), so I cut the list.

[thegreatzombieartisan]

“All it takes is one bad day to reduce the sanest man alive to lunacy. That's how far the world is from where I am. Just one bad day. You had a bad day once, am I right? I know I am. I can tell. You had a bad day and everything changed…” — the Joker to Batman

In Alan Moore’s graphic novel The Killing Joke, the Joker sets out to prove to Batman that faced with certain life changing events everyone, anyone, would choose madness, would choose villainy.

To prove his point, the Joker shoots the daughter of police commissioner Gordon, paralyzing and possibly even sexually assaulting her. He kidnaps and tortures Gordon, forcing him to view photos of the crime.

While Adar and Galadriel don’t neatly parallel Batman and the Joker, the “killing joke” theme is an interesting lens to analyze their S1 arcs.

Batman and the Joker had “one bad day.” For Batman, it was the murder of his parents. The Joker allegedly lost his pregnant wife in a car accident. Batman is called to dedicate his life and fortune fighting crime. But the Joker embraces a chaotic nihilism, insisting life is one big joke — so why does seeking justice even matter?

Similarly Adar’s “one bad day” is presumably the day he entered Morgoth thralldom. For Galadriel, it is when she learned her brother Finrod was killed.

Fork in the road, all four characters had to choose how to confront their immense pain, loss, and grief.

“Maybe there isn't any need to crawl under a rock with all the other slimey things when trouble hits. Maybe it was just you, all the time!" — Batman

Here Batman suggests that the Joker’s “madness” is an outcome of deficits in character or wisdom rather than cosmic inevitability. Conflict reveals character: core beliefs, cultural norms, and worldview that guide us. By blunting his pain with nihilism, Batman accuses the Joker of taking the easy way out.

To the Joker’s dismay, Gordon and his daughter, though likely traumatized from their ordeal, do not turn to madness. They refuse to allow their “one bad day” to compromise their values and goals. Where do they draw this strength of character and self-discipline?

Renowned psychiatrist Viktor Frankl offers an answer. In his famed book Man’s Search for Meaning, he revealed his “one bad day”. The day he and his pregnant wife arrived at a German concentration camp. Frankl vowed to live and reunite with her. He did survive but he never saw her again.

He coined the idea that a person can tolerate any how if they had a why. For Batman, Gordon and his daughter, the why is a purpose greater than themselves: justice. To be the person victims need them to be. Therefore, they live by a code of ethics. Batman famously avoids killing the baddies so he doesn’t become the darkness he vanquishes.

In contrast, Joker represents how the absence of productive meaning, hatred and hedonism rush to fill the space, leading to despair and dependency on antisocial and addictive activity.

Galadriel most closely reflects that inner void. Though her intent is virtuous, without offering us a clear vision of a post-Sauron future, and balancing urgency with care for others, her quest is somewhat self-serving, almost nihilistic; fueled by grievance and resentment toward anything, anyone, in her way.

We get the impression that if Galadriel ever did find Sauron, she would kill him then step over his cooling body to find a new enemy. Rather than humble herself, she embraces her moral failings as strengths. She cannot accept peace because war is what makes her life meaningful. And at times, it causes her to straddle the line between hero and villain.

Adar, like Frankl, simply had to survive for others. If he despaired or acted rashly; displeased Sauron and lost his trust; failed to assassinate his master — his “children” would be doomed forever to the dark lord’s purposes or hunted to extinction by Elves and Men.

But to withstand torture, debasement, and the suffocation of his spirit; to defer the gratification of freedom from bondage — all without ever giving up the dream of liberty. What empowered Adar to endure against the odds?

While Galadriel has something to die for, Adar has something to live for

Adar’s clear vision is reflected in his poise, his soft-spokenness and deliberate choices. The loyalty and respect of the otherwise unruly Uruks. A fortitude and foresight guided by estel, or hope more like faith. Because the Children are made imago Dei, or in the image and likeness of Iluvatar, Adar believes that, even in their miserable corrupted state, his “children” deserve a dignified existence. He will fight for them.

Adar’s reverence of the Valar reveals how faith anchored him to his Elven nature, and sustained him all these hard, lonely years. His strolls along the Sirion River, watched over by Ulmo. Soaking in his final sunset, shining with the pure light gifted to Varda. Planting Alfirin seeds before battle as an intercessory prayer to Yavanna for victory.

In contrast, Galadriel seems all but apostatized, untethered from her Elven nature. By shouldering the weight of Sauron’s return, she moves in a desperate frenzied way, grasping in the dark. Forgotten are the two commands Illuvatar had for the Elves: believe he exists and have estel; know their only battle is spiritual victory and thus surrender to his will.

When crossing a metaphysical bridge, the hero chooses heroism and the villain chooses villainy — again and again and again. Batman chose to honor his parents by being someone they would be proud of. Instead of being the man she loved, the Joker buried his pain under manufactured meaninglessness.

In his fight to survive, Adar, like Batman, does not escape his “touch with darkness” unscathed. He commits evil toward the Southlanders in service of a yet-to-be fully revealed plan that may take in a sinister edge. Galadriel, we know, will overcome her limitations. But what will Adar’s journey be — that of the villain or the hero?

can we please hear more about your OCs?? :). they look really cool and interesting!!

only if you’re okay sharing of course

Well, now I'll try to describe it all..or at least something. I have a shared setting with my girlfriend and it takes place in an alternative Europe of the 19th century (mostly in Britain). The main group of characters are cryptid hunters. Hunters founded their guild, established their foundations, hierarchy and monetary relations with "commoners", who are most often customers for catching beasts that devoured livestock.

The main characters are hunters-partners: a tall, serious man from Scandinavia named Ryan (belongs to my gf) and a frivolous Romanian drinker Ardy (belongs to me).

They behave like a stereotypical couple who divorced 10 years ago, despite the fact that they have never been married. But now it's not about them, I just needed to mention them and the place of action so that you understand further information.

In addition to primitive cryptids that just eat cows or lure children into the forest, there are much more developed entities. People call them "angels" because they are of unknown origin, most often anthropomorphic in shape (but there are also completely fucked up), have appendages similar to wings, sometimes glow and convince not to be afraid of them. Angels know human languages and pretend to be "human" pretty well. To do this, they have a "real" appearance and a "formal appearance". This is necessary for them to live together peacefully, to explore the new world around them… or just eat people. Unfortunately, human meat is a mandatory product in their diet to imitate their appearance. But some of them eat people simply because they can (this is condemned by a considerable number of relatives). Some angels are so good at pretending to be homo sapiens that they hold high positions in human institutions.

One of these angels is Dr. Lee (a character of my gf, and her drawing of him). He is the head of a psychiatric hospital, which allows him to conduct experiments. Dr. Lee is obsessed with research on creating artificial life and crossing humans with angels to breed a new race.

He behaves more like a modeler of miniature ships made of 3,000 parts than a mad scientist. He considers the human race to be several steps lower in development, so he doesn't feel sorry for the patients in his asylum. But Lee understands perfectly well that he can't just throw away lives, so he has to keep an acceptable level of the institution in order not to arouse suspicion. Not the biggest fan of his own work, but proud of his latest "projects". The first project is a successful crossing of an angel and a human woman (under the name Lilith). The second project is the successful creation of artificial life, a homunculus named Franklin.

Franklin is currently the only successful homunculus created by the hands of Dr. Lee (where did the rest of the failed attempts go? nobody knows). He doesn't react to pain, performs immoral tasks without unnecessary questions and learns quite quickly (thanks to the collective mind). Unfortunately, his emotions and feelings are artificially suppressed, so it's hard for Franklin to realize sarcasm, humor, irony and other charms of complex human emotional intelligence. Homunculus doesn't know how to regenerate, but in this case, Dr. Lee has an ace up his sleeve - he relieves the previous body of suffering and creates Franklin anew, laying all the accumulated experience with the help of the collective mind.

Dr. Lee is not the only angel in the asylum. Zebedee also lived there for a while (despite Lee's attempts to kick him out). Zebedee is quite phlegmatic and passive, but this doesn't make him not dangerous. Under huge sleeves and baggy clothes, he hides his limbs with additional joints that he cannot shorten.

Zebedee is very ancient. He probably even remembers the Cambrian period. I think that's why he looks more like a prehistoric creature than something cosmic. He collects only the best from evolution. So he has a retractable jaw like a fish and amazing manipulative abilities like humans.

But there are also ordinary people in this institution. For example, intern Beatril Quincy. He had every chance to become a new ray of light in medicine, but addiction to opium and cocaine made him a scum. He doesn't disdain to steal laudanum from the shelves of medical offices and doesn't miss the chance to steal one of the bodies from grave diggers. All he wants is to get an opportunity to escape from the hospital he hates (which he eventually succeeds after being fired at Dr. Lee's asylum and suddenly getting a job as a guild doctor)

Actually, so far this is all I can tell you about the lore. In the future, there will be a clash between the hunter guild and Dr. Lee's hospital (but this still needs to be worked out better).

I hope it was at least a little interesting (:

#superheroRPGs2019  Spectaculars Core Game

As a physical product I can definitively say that Spectaculars is amazing. It’s one of a striking set of ttrpgs which have a board game form-factor. The publisher, Scratchpad, also made Dusk City Outlaws. I liked DCO okay, and I’d hoped it could be a resource for running Blades in the Dark. But beyond the NPC cards it didn't quite work for me. But Spectaculars is different.

It presents a full-bodied RPG campaign with the tools and add-ons the board game box makes you expect. Each player gets a cool plastic play tray into which you can slot your character sheets, powers, and more. Spectaculars has four different campaign pads, each with a different theme (street-level, cosmic, etc). The conceit of the whole thing is that all these campaigns take place in one shared comics line. It's not unlike the shared comics  setting we ran across multiple RPGs in the community, with a resource wiki helping to link the different GMs and games.

Spectaculars joins these four campaigns together with a large setting book. Various places, people, and incidents are briefly presented in the setting book. Each entry has a little information, a checklist of choices, and space to write in details of how this setting element appears in your campaign. So when you hit a reference on one of the campaign pads, you stop and go there to make collaborative choices, add to the details, or just reference what you’ve already decided. It's a "legacy" (like the board game) approach. Now most campaigns have a legacy element; building up stories over time tracked on character sheets, handouts, maps, etc. But this approach provides a walk-in structure for play. You get the sense of a history which you get to build on in a meaningful way. It’s supportive, not intrusive. It prompts you but leaves plenty of imaginative space.

I’ve seen the box on sale a couple of times (and bought mine 50% off from the company). There’s also a digital version but I’m unsure how easy that would be to manage. There’s a strong physical component of play that I’m worried would get lost in a Zoom call.

[butchfalin]

killing care and grief of heart director's commentary let's gooo

SO. this is mostly just rambling but considering this fic is relatively short i have many many thoughts about it and the concept... mostly because it ended up being entirely different from what i anticipated it becoming.

the inspiration behind it was reddie fic, because i was an IT writer for years and there were many fics where richie went back to the sewers to pull eddie's body out and resurrect him through the power of belief. i feel like that concept is very similar to how cognition works — a weapon only hurts the enemy if you believe it will, etc etc — and was what i really intended to play with. i miss writing reddie fic but have no new ideas and the concept of going back to retrieve your dead friend is a fantastic and underutilized one!!

and then i was writing it and i kept getting stumped by my own writing... the belief/cognition is still very much important to the story but has been overshadowed by other elements. initial drafts, however, were essentially that akira believed so hard that akechi was alive and he was visible enough in the public eye that he just. Believed him back to life. which still partially happens! but not quite to the same extent.

what happened in actuality is that... well. mostly. right now i am working on a production of orfeo, an italian opera based on orpheus and eurydice. and it's my favorite myth of all time so it really shifted the concept in my mind... also the orpheus parallels Were in some reddie fic. this is a recurring theme.

BUT! i would like to spend a moment discussing exactly what the hell happened in the fic, because it wasn't really clarified. this is because akira did not care and had other things on his mind (namely, akechi) lol

there is exactly one hint as to what it is, and it's this line:

"but kaia," you might say, "this explains literally nothing." and you'd be right! but here is what it refers to:

yeah. that's all the hint you get. sorry!

because it's a persona trait, it's not something joker can use on other party members. HOWEVER, a couple key things are at play here: firstly, that akechi is also a wild card and is inherently attached to him through their fates being literally cosmically intertwined. secondly, there's the belief aspect, as mentioned earlier — akira believes akechi can be healed, so he can. thirdly, ...it's orpheus. it's thematically rich! also, rule of cool. why not!

but, okay. reddie is still here, also very much inspiring it. namely, the inspiration is from this:

absolutely devastating! also i think makes sense given the way akira in-game denies akechi being dead several times. i can't find the screenshots, but you know the moments. he never actually says "akechi is dead", always just sort of trails off, and has several lines about wanting to keep their promise or their fight not being over yet. that was also very much the inspiration behind this, and informed many writing decisions, such as these bits:

:) he's Unwell. anyway, speaking of reddie! i have no idea what the interest crossover here is, but there's one Very Direct reference:

this is a longer page than is probably strictly necessary, but if you don't know the context, i think it helps. in the scene, eddie has died, and richie is trying to take his body back out. ""i don't know," richie said, but he knew well enough" is one of those quotes that the entire fandom knew by heart. i still think of it every time i hear "well enough" in any capacity. it's heartbreaking. so obviously i had to steal it lmao — except that here, akira was alone, so he was unable to carry akechi's body in any regard. and, of course, when he kissed akechi, he was alive :)

i don't really have many other thoughts except that naturally i had to bring up kaguya because... i love her. that's all. and i would never ever get rid of her (currently my party has both kaguya and kaguya picaro lmao) But! it is more interesting if orpheus is there. just know i love kaguya soooo much. kaguya numero uno forever‼️‼️

also, i want to write more horror, because a lot of my non-fic writing is horror in some capacity... this is sort of lightly toeing the line into that because i tried to add properly visceral descriptions :) you will be seeing more of it. this i promise.

anyway i leave you with this: a short snippet of a story i wrote well over a year ago (that's entirely unedited and has gone untouched since then) that was shuake-inspired orpheus and eurydice. everything comes full circle

^ this story was inspired by third semester bad endings... from a technical standpoint it could certainly be better but i do think conceptually it is interesting and may be something i one day revisit. yay :)

ok that's all. if you read this far i love u

PF2e Character Concept: Inbal the Listener

So I was browsing around the Investigator class in Archives of Nethys, and some of the flavour text leans towards an occult detective: You seek to uncover the truth, doggedly pursuing leads to reveal the plots of devious villains, discover ancient secrets, or unravel other mysteries. I’ve been wanting to build an occulty sort of character in PF2e since basically reading some of the occultism skill feats way back when. If you want a sort of ESP-feeling, psychometry, vibe-focused sort of character, occultism just feels like a really good skill to build around.

So I was looking at that, and the Investigator methodologies, and for some reason while browsing past the Forensic Medicine methodology, my brain thought ‘Igor’. Gothic horror, bodies, henchpeople. Frankenstein. Which, naturally, brought me back to the Fleshwarp ancestry. Because they’re just really really cool. But. If we tie a bow around all of that. Bodies. Forensic Science. Occultism. Gothic Horror. Servants.

How about a character who was built, designed, to search out occult mysteries. A body built from pieces of strange creatures, a servant crafted to aid in certain obscure and obscene mysteries. A shambling creature who wound up on their own, with only insatiable curiosity, strange senses, and a healer’s eye for the physical form to keep them going. A hideous creature, a feared creature, but they offer help. Medicine, healing. Expertise. Help for when things are strange or terrifying.

Inbal the Listener. A nervy, alarming creature with long, spidery fingers and worrisome sensory tendrils, who sidles around the edges of civilisation offering cheap doctoring or help with unusual mysteries to survive.

(Yes, my Nosferatu is showing again. VtM was responsible for a lot. Also Universal and Hammer Horror)

Character Concept: Inbal the Listener, Sensor of Hidden Things

Ancestry, Heritage

Fleshwarp, Surgewise

I really, really, really like Fleshwarps. Horrendously transformed or warped or created beings, strange bodies for unusual people. For Inbal we’re aiming for a gothic/cosmic horror sort of origin, a bit of an Ustalavian feel. Some scientist or necromancer in Ustalav decided to make themselves a servant to help search out and understand areas of heavy occult energies, and in that cause decided to merge a broadly humanoid form with several … more unusual sorts of organs and origins.

So we’ll be going for the Surgewise heritage: The undulations of your body's cilia are hyper-attuned to wellsprings of magic; they trill and thrum with insights into occult energies, and their vibrations alert you to the presence of secrets. You gain the trained proficiency rank in Occultism. If you're trained in Occultism, you instead become trained in another skill of your choice. You also gain the Oddity Identification skill feat.

You’ve got to love a heritage that gives you canonical sensory tendrils (cilia). I want to imagine a sort of skinny, hunched, hairless creature, with bluey-grey skin, and these little fringes or fronds of cilia along certain areas. Below the ears. Along the spine and the back of the neck, over the crest of the head. Along the ridge of the arm, down to the wrist. The hands are elongated, pale, spidery fingers that stitch your wounds or delicately trace writings or gently examine clues. The eyes are dark and without whites, black orbs, and … let’s make the eyelids transparent. The eyes don’t close in sleep, or they don’t appear to close, though the transparent lids do protect them and keep them from drying out. Inbal is neither male nor female, they were never designed with reproduction in mind. They were meant to feel and to seek and to explore.

The medicine, the understanding of flesh, they came to themselves, as a product of their making.

As a note, ‘Inbal’, in Hebrew, means ‘tongue of a bell’. They named themselves, as something that will not only listen, not only feel, but also speak. They were not designed for it, but they have their own mind, and they have carved out their own life. That is important to them.

Ancestry Feats:

Low-Light Vision: You can see in dim light as though it were bright light, and you ignore the concealed condition due to dim light.

Unusual Anatomy: Your unorthodox body resists physical afflictions meant for other creatures. You gain a +1 circumstance bonus to saves against diseases and poisons.

Oddity Identification: You have a sense for spells that twist minds or reveal secrets. You gain a +2 circumstance bonus to Occultism checks to Identify Magic with the mental, possession, prediction, or scrying traits.

And for our first level ancestry feat we’ll take:

Deepvision: Your vision is suited for night or the underground. You gain darkvision.

Planned Future Ancestry Feats:

We’ll take the Ancestral Paragon general feat at 3rd level to get:

Living Weapon: You've learned to use part of your form as a weapon. When you select this feat, you gain a claws unarmed attack that deals 1d4 slashing damage and has the agile and finesse traits; a horn, jaws, or tusk unarmed attack that deals 1d6 piercing damage and has the versatile trait; or a tail unarmed attack that deals 1d6 bludgeoning damage and has the backswing trait. Each of these unarmed attacks is in the brawling weapon group. Your features are mutable; you can select this feat at any level, and you can retrain into or out of this feat or change the type of attack you gain. Special You can take this feat multiple times. Each time you do, select a new attack from the options above.

Just because Investigators are martial classes, and a weapon that can’t get taken away might be handy. Not going to lie, though, Aberration Kinship is also very tempting, particularly on an occult detective sort of character. Toss up there. Then we’ll take:

Uncanny Awareness: You have a keen sense of movement around you. You gain motion sense as an imprecise sense out to 30 feet. Motion sense allows you to detect nearby motion through vibration and air movement.

Because we have sensory cilia and we’re damn well going to use them. And for the same reason, at 13th level we’ll take:

Augment Senses: You open vestigial eyes, unfurl tympanic flaps of skin, or otherwise enhance your senses. Until the start of your next turn, you gain the following benefits: you can't be flanked; when you Seek for creatures, you can scan a 60-foot cone or a 30-foot burst instead of the normal area; and when you Seek for hidden objects, you can search a 15-foot square instead of the normal area.

And at 17th level, just because, we’ll take:

Spew Tentacles: You can open your mouth to an immense size and spew forth an impossibly large field of tentacles. You can cast black tentacles once per day as an innate occult spell, though when you do so, you spew them from your mouth out to the appropriate range, where they take root and begin Grappling creatures as usual. The tentacles recognize you as a part of them and don't attempt to Grapple you, even if you are in the area.

For our 9th ancestry feat, it’s a toss up. Coating of Slime or Slip the Grasp work defensively. Transposable Compliance really gels well with our medical slant, allowing Inbal to use their own body as a set of healer’s tools, in very upsetting ways, using their own blood and skin to fix other people’s injuries at the cost of damage to themselves. It is tempting. But. If we want a combination, a very upsetting biological defensive feat, we could go:

Gaping Flesh (reaction): Frequency once per day. Trigger A creature you are aware of damages you with a melee Strike. Your wound yawns open, appalling your attacker. The attacker must succeed at a Fortitude saving throw against your class DC or spell DC, whichever is higher, or become sickened 1 (sickened 2 on a critical failure). It can't recover from the sickened condition while it's adjacent to you.

Look. They are a strange cobbled-together creature made of the upsetting bits of upsetting creatures so they could go out and look for more upsetting creatures and places and things. Their innards are not pleasant or rational things to look at. Okay? Heh.

I fucking love Fleshwarps. Anyway.

Planned Future General Feats:

Nothing too concrete, but I’ll definitely be getting True Perception at 19th level. Sensing is kind of our whole deal, after all. I’d also pick up the usuals. Fleet, Toughness. Since we’re an investigator, though, I’d like either Expeditious Search or Thorough Search. We like to examine things.

Background:

Necromancer’s Apprentice: You apprenticed under a necromancer—a hard education in a field where a cadaver you were dissecting could suddenly animate and every magical artifact seemed deadly. Now on your own, you're grateful you learned to identify magical threats quickly and thoroughly. Choose two ability boosts. One must be to Constitution or Intelligence, and one is a free ability boost. You're trained in the Arcana skill and the Necromancy Lore skill. You gain the Quick Identification skill feat.

To go back to the Frankensteinian origin. Though it’ll be ‘made by’ instead of ‘apprenticed under’ a necromancer, in this case, and the necromancer also had some more … esoteric interests as well.

As for what happened to said necromancer … Inbal doesn’t know. She’s gone. Not dead, Inbal doesn’t think, just. Gone. It’s a little hazy. A lot hazy. Something happened, and suddenly Inbal was all alone in the world. Suddenly they had to investigate mysteries and poke around strange flesh for their own curiosity, instead of their master’s. But, well. That’s all right. They have a lot of curiosity. And they’re a lot freer to try to help and talk to people on their own.

Background Feats:

Quick Identification: You can Identify Magic swiftly. You take only 1 minute when using Identify Magic to determine the properties of an item, ongoing effect, or location, rather than 10 minutes. If you’re a master, it takes a 3-action activity, and if you’re legendary, it takes 1 action.

Class, Subclass, Archetype

Investigator, Forensic Medicine, Eldritch Researcher

Yes, I want to take an archetype on Inbal. Eldritch Researcher just feels so fitting. We’re an occult detective with a medical streak. I’m only going to take a couple feats from it, but it’s so nice for flavour and a couple of specific little details.

Forensic Medicine: You've learned that in most cases, especially murders, criminals tend to leave more evidence of the crime on the body than they'd like to believe. Information from bruising, bone fractures, blood spatters, and even the life cycle of carrion insects can provide valuable clues that help reconstruct the scene. You're trained in Medicine and gain the Forensic Acumen and Battle Medicine skill feats. When you use Battle Medicine, on a success the target recovers additional Hit Points equal to your level, and the target becomes temporarily immune for only 1 hour, not 1 day.

Forensic Acumen: You understand the principles of forensic medicine, making you better at examining a body to determine the cause of death or injury. You can perform a forensic examination on a body, as described under Recall Knowledge in the Medicine skill, in half the normal amount of time it would take (to a minimum of 5 minutes). If you succeed at your check, you can attempt an immediate check to Recall Knowledge to follow up on something you found, with a +2 circumstance bonus. This check is usually related to the cause of injury or death, such as a Crafting check to identify a poison or weapon that was used or an additional Medicine check to identify a specific disease. If you prefer, you can instead attempt to Recall Knowledge about the type of creature whose body you were examining, using the appropriate skill and gaining the same circumstance bonus. The circumstance bonus increases to +3 if you have master proficiency in Medicine and +4 if you have legendary proficiency.

Battle Medicine: You can patch up wounds, even in combat. Attempt a Medicine check with the same DC as for Treat Wounds and restore the corresponding amount of HP; this doesn't remove the Wounded condition. As with Treat Wounds, you can attempt checks against higher DCs if you have the minimum proficiency rank. The target is then temporarily immune to your Battle Medicine for 1 day.

Eldritch Researcher (at Level 2): An eager student of occult lore, you enjoy reading rare or forgotten tomes with ancient rituals and hidden secrets. You connect disparate facts to unlock deeper mysteries and uncover the truths of the universe, and you zealously hoard the knowledge your painstaking research produces. Aberrations fascinate you for many reasons, not the least of which is because their anatomy is wholly alien and yet, to the insightful, eminently sensible.

Eldritch Researcher Dedication: You gain the ability to cast a single arcane or occult cantrip of your choice (which is heightened to a spell level equal to half your level rounded up). If you weren't already, you become trained in that tradition's spell DCs and spell attack rolls with Intelligence as your spellcasting ability. Regardless of whether you choose an arcane or occult cantrip, you also become an expert in your choice of either Arcana or Occultism. You also gain a +1 circumstance bonus to checks you attempt with the chosen skill when Investigating or Identifying Magic. Special You can't select another dedication feat until you've gained two other feats from the Eldritch Researcher archetype.

Statistics:

We’re going to start with 18 Intelligence, 14 Constitution and Dexterity, 12 Wisdom, and 10 Strength and Charisma.

We’ll finish at 20th level with 22 Intelligence, 18 Constitution, Wisdom and Dexterity, 16 Charisma and 14 Strength.

Skills:

Because Investigators are insane when it comes to skills, at 1st level Inbal will be trained in: Arcana, Crafting, Deception, Diplomacy, Intimidation, Medicine, Nature, Necromantic Lore, Occultism, Religion, Society, Stealth and Thievery.

By 20th level, they’ll be Legendary in Crafting, Diplomacy, Medicine, Occultism, Society and Stealth, as well as Master in Arcana. Because, again, Investigators are kind of insane for skills.

Planned Class Feats:

Scalpel’s Point: Prerequisites forensic medicine methodology. Your stratagems benefit from your precise knowledge of anatomy. When you critically hit with an attack on which you substituted your attack roll due to Devising a Stratagem, if your attack dealt piercing or slashing damage, you also deal 1d6 persistent bleed damage to your target.

Blind-Fight: Prerequisites master in Perception. Your battle instincts make you more aware of concealed and invisible opponents. You don't need to succeed at a flat check to target concealed creatures. You're not flat-footed to creatures that are hidden from you (unless you're flat-footed to them for reasons other than the hidden condition), and you need only a successful DC 5 flat check to target a hidden creature. While you're adjacent to an undetected creature of your level or lower, it is instead only hidden from you.

(Inbal’s cilia and augmented senses are doing a lot of work. A very sensory creature in general)

Suspect of Opportunity: Frequency once per hour. Trigger A foe takes a hostile action against you in combat. Sometimes something intrudes upon your case unexpectedly, such as an ambush sent to bring your investigation to a close. You've learned how to compartmentalize your main lead and pursue a new one for your current predicament. You Pursue a Lead against the triggering foe, setting aside but not ending one of your currently active leads, if you have two leads. At the end of the combat encounter, you stop Pursuing the Lead against the triggering foe and return to the original lead, if you have one.

Foresee Danger: Trigger A creature targets you with an attack and you can see the attacker. You perceive every possible way your foe's attack could land and attempt to avoid them all. The triggering attack roll targets your Perception DC instead of your AC. Though this allows you to avoid taking penalties to your AC, it doesn't remove any conditions or other effects causing such penalties. For example, an enemy with sneak attack would still deal extra damage to you for being flat-footed, even though you wouldn't take the -2 circumstance penalty when defending against the attack.

Reconstruct the Scene: You spend 1 minute surveying a small location (such as a single room) to get an impression of events that occurred there in the last day. This involves moving about the area and studying footprints, the placement of objects, spilled drinks or blood, and so forth. You get an indistinct mental impression of significant events that happened there. This gives you clues and details of the past, including the overall events and their time frame, but it's not a perfect record. This also isn't enough to identify who was involved in these events if you weren't already aware the person was there. As determined by the GM, you also pick out various seemingly small details that could serve as important clues, like a memorable weapon someone used for a murder or the type of cloak someone wore when passing through.

Trickster’s Ace: Requirements When you make your daily preparations, you must specify a trigger for this reaction using the same restrictions as the triggers for the Ready action. You also choose a single spell from the arcane, divine, occult, or primal list of 4th level or lower. The spell can't have a cost, nor can its casting time be more than 10 minutes. The spell must be able to target a single creature, and you must be a valid target for it. Trigger You specify the trigger when you make your daily preparations (see Requirements below). Whether from jury-rigged magic items, stolen magical essence, or other means, you have a contingency in your back pocket for desperate situations. When the trigger occurs, you cause the spell to come into effect. The spell targets only you, no matter how many creatures it would affect normally. If you define particularly complicated conditions, as determined by the GM, the trigger might fail. Once the contingency is triggered, the spell is expended until your next daily preparations.

(We’ve dabbled in a bit of occult spellcasting before, after all, from ancestry and archetype, so why not dabble some more)

And to cap:

All the Time in the World: Your firsthand experience of the subjective nature of time and space has given you new observational insights. Your mind processes information so quickly that time appears to stop for all creatures but you. You can take up to 9 actions in 3 sets of up to 3 actions each. During this time, you can use purely mental and observational abilities such as Recall Knowledge, Seek, and Devise a Stratagem, and you can use an action to move a mental projection of yourself to a location within a 60- foot radius to observe objects more closely and from different angles, though you can't affect your surroundings in any way (for instance, you could move your mental projection more closely to a distant door to read a minute inscription on its handle, but you could not open it to observe the other side). When the duration elapses, time resumes its normal flow.

If you can’t already tell, Inbal is definitely going to be running on a theme of sensing things. Heh.

Planned Archetype Feats:

Strange Script: Prerequisites Eldritch Researcher Dedication. You have such familiarity with obscure texts that you can compel them to reveal their secrets. Once per day, you can touch a single text (such as a tome, a wall of hieroglyphics, or something similar) and understand its meaning for 1 hour. If the text is in multiple languages, you gain the ability to understand them all for only the purposes of reading the text. If the text is in a code or cypher, you don't automatically understand the text, but you gain a +2 circumstance bonus to checks to decipher it.

(I’m going to merge this with one of the skill feats I wanted to take, Read Psychometric Resonance, and flavour it as being able to sense the meaning as a psychometric resonance.)

Entities from Afar: Prerequisites Eldritch Researcher Dedication. You can call in aberrations to fight for you or to answer questions. You can cast summon entity as an innate occult spell once per day. If you couldn't already cast occult spells, these spells use Intelligence as your spellcasting ability, and you become trained in spell attack rolls and spell DCs for occult spells; if you could already cast occult spells, your proficiency in spell attack rolls and spell DCs for occult spells increases to expert. As soon as the aberration arrives, instead of giving it any other commands, you can demand that it help you with a single question you pose to it. For the creature to effectively answer, you must Sustain the Spell for 1 minute, and you must understand and be understood by the aberration. If you do, the aberration gives you a cryptic clue as provided by the read omens spell, except that the clue is even more enigmatic than normal; the creature then immediately returns from whence it came without providing you any other benefit. At 16th level and every 2 levels thereafter, the summon entity spell is heightened by 1 level (to a maximum of 8th level when you reach 20th level).

(… Look, Inbal’s already 90% Aberration, they might as well get to call some up for help occasionally)

Planned Skill Feats:

I’m going to mention these, because there’s some specific skill feats I want for the vibe and to build flavour in and around class/ancestry feats.

In particular I want:

Read Psychometric Resonance: Prerequisites trained in Occultism. With a touch, you can read the psychic impressions left on objects by their previous owners. This exploration activity functions similarly to Detect Magic in that you move at half your travel speed or slower while looking for psychometric resonance. You must brush your bare hands over any objects you pass while you do this. This detects objects with significant emotional resonance attached to them, such as the joy from a child's beloved teddy bear, the sorrow from a widower's wedding ring, or the fear from a victim's murder weapon. If you're looking for a particular type of emotional resonance, you can choose to ignore other emotions. If you find an item with that resonance, you can explore that resonance with the following action. Psychometric Assessment (concentrate, divination, emotion, exploration, mental, occult) Requirements Your bare hands are touching an object in which you detected psychometric resonance; Effect You spend 1 minute concentrating on the object to get a vision of the face of the person who imbued the item with such emotion in the first place. If the associated emotion is painfully negative, you might take 1d6 psychic damage, as determined by the GM.

PF2e has a psychometry skill. I love it. You don’t know how much. Like I said above, I want to build this with a few things, like Inbal’s sensory cilia from Surgewise, and the Strange Script feat from Eldritch Researcher. Their spidery fingers and swaying tendrils give them glimpses beyond the physical. They were made to feel things and to explore things, and they’re not unhappy about it.

On a theme of occultism and sensing things, I also want Arcane Sense, Consult the Spirits: Occultism, Recognise Spell and Quick Recognition. Root Magic is more protection than sensing, but that also fits in pretty well.

On a theme of Medicine, because it’s how they make their little space in the world, how they help, how they convince people not to murder them, I would also like Ward Medic, Robust Recovery, Advanced First Aid, Paragon Battle Medicine, and Legendary Medic.

All of this is possible, by the way, because, as mentioned, Investigators are ridiculous when it comes to skills and skill feats and they get twenty million of them. So on top of those, we can add on some of the usual suspects like Swift Sneak, Foil Senses, and Legendary Sneak, because Inbal is gonna need to be sneaky, because they’ve got to skulk around the edges of the world and avoid being hacked up as an abomination. Streetwise and Legendary Codebreaker from Society, because they’ll need some mundane mystery-solving abilities, and Codebreaker fits nicely with Strange Script too, in that by higher levels they’ve sensed enough to learn how to decode languages manually and permanently, instead of just reading meanings in the moment. And then we’ll throw in Magical Crafting, Craft Anything and Legendary Negotiation, because Investigators just have all the skills. All of them. Heh.

Spells: As a small side note, by the time they finish, between various feats, Inbal will also have a small collection of mostly occult spells available to them: Haunting Hymn, Detect Magic, Telepathy, Summon Entity and Black Tentacles.

And … that’ll be Inbal the Listener. A strange skulker around the edges of the light, with a curious form and a curious mind, looking to help and to explore in equal measure.

Dummy (Tekashi 69) Vapes: In-Depth Review of Flavors, Pricing, and More

An Overview of Dummy (Tekashi 69) Vapes Dummy Vape is a disposable vape brand launched in 2023 and endorsed by the American rapper Tekashi 69. Leveraging Tekashi 69’s strong fanbase, the brand has quickly gained popularity. While I’m not particularly a fan of Tekashi 69, his colorful cartoon avatar and the eye-catching "Dummy Vapes" logo are undeniably distinctive. The character, with large expressive eyes and rainbow-colored teeth, perfectly captures Tekashi 69’s unique persona, blending humor and style. The brand’s rapid rise hasn't gone unnoticed, with other vape companies like Fume Vape attempting collaborations with Tekashi 69, which ultimately led to legal disputes. Dummy Vapes LLC, a Florida-based company, seems to be the brand's owner. In October 2023, the company filed for the Dummy Vape trademark. Interestingly, another company, HIGH-QUALITY VAPES LLC, has filed a similar trademark featuring Tekashi 69’s cartoon image, raising questions about the brand’s ownership. Currently, Dummy Vape offers a single product, the Dummy Vapes 8000. Despite lacking FDA approval, it’s marketed as a safe product. In this review, I’ll provide a closer look at this disposable vape. Design & Build Quality The Dummy (Takashi 69) Vape comes in several design variations, including the Classic version, Dummy Vapes version, and a 24k gold version. The 24k gold model, priced at $999, is currently unavailable, but it stands out as a luxury option. This review focuses on the Dummy Vapes version, which is heavily branded with Tekashi 69’s imagery. The Dummy Vapes model features a bar-shaped design with a semi-transparent, food-grade plastic mouthpiece for ergonomic comfort. The device's body is constructed from solid-colored plastic, with a small display near the bottom that shows battery and e-liquid levels. The air intake and charging port are positioned at the base. The front of the device is adorned with a colorful Dummy Vapes logo and a large cartoon image of Tekashi 69, along with the flavor name and a corresponding fruit graphic—a first for disposable vapes, adding a playful touch. While the bar-shaped design is functional, it lacks aesthetic appeal. However, the colorful Tekashi 69 cartoon adds a fun and distinctive element to the device. Performance & Functionality Specifications: - E-Liquid Capacity: 18mL - Battery Capacity: 650mAh - Maximum Puffs: 8000 - Nicotine Strength: 5% (50mg) - Operation: Draw-Activated - Heating Element: QUAQ Mesh Coil - Charging: Type-C Port - Display Screen: Smart Display Screen The Dummy (Takashi 69) Vape is prefilled with 18mL of e-liquid, promising up to 8000 puffs. In reality, users can expect around 3600 puffs, which is still respectable. The 650mAh battery takes about an hour to fully charge, offering decent performance. The device features a QUAQ mesh coil, a lesser-known brand under the same company that owns popular brands like Elf Bar, Lost Mary, and Funky Republic. This ensures reliable vaporizing technology, as the coil plays a critical role in flavor and vapor production. In terms of user experience, the Dummy Vape offers a smooth and satisfying draw. The small display screen, located on the bottom side, can be slightly inconvenient to view. Additionally, the device does not have adjustable airflow, limiting customization of the draw. Flavor Selection & Taste Dummy (Takashi 69) Vape offers 22 unique flavors: - 69 Lush Ice - Watermelon Ice - Alien Invasion - Blackberry & Dragon Fruit - Bad Berry - Intense Blackberry - Brooklyn Blue - Blueberries & Icy Coolness - Clear - Pure Vaping Experience - Cosmic Blast - Raspberry, Peach & Lime Ice - Dummy Dream - Creamy Banana Ice Cream - Fizzy Lemon - Sparkling Pink Lemonade - Fruit Frenzy - Pineapple, Guava & Passion Fruit - Gangsta Punch - Pineapple, Mango & Lime - Gooba Grape - Cranberries & Grapes - Gummo Gummy - Candy-Inspired Flavors - Kika Kiwi - Kiwi & Pomegranate - King of NY - Cool Mint Ice - Rainbow Rapper - Skittlez-Inspired Fruit Mix - Redd Dummy - Cherries, Strawberries & Apples - Stoopid Strawberry - Strawberries & Banana - Tobacco - Rich Tobacco Flavor - Trollz Twist - Blueberries, Raspberries & Sour Candy - Twisted Tangy - Orange, Lemon & Mint - Wacky Watermelon - Strawberry, Mango & Watermelon - Zest Zaza - Cucumber, Lemon & Mint Top 3 Flavors: - Cosmic Blast: A refreshing mix of raspberry, peach, and lime ice, with a balanced sweetness and cool throat hit. - Dummy Dream: Authentic banana ice cream flavor with just the right sweetness and a smooth throat hit. - Gooba Grape: A delightful blend of natural cranberry and grape flavors with balanced sweetness and a satisfying throat hit. Pricing The Dummy Classic and Dummy Vapes versions are priced at $14.99 USD, while the 24k gold version costs $999 USD. The classic version’s price is reasonable for an 18ml capacity. Retailers like vapecityusa.com offer the product for $14.44 USD, providing small savings for budget-conscious buyers. Final Thoughts As a disposable vape, the Dummy (Takashi 69) Vape stands out with its robust build quality, diverse flavor selection, and reliable performance, thanks to its QUAQ mesh coil. However, the lack of adjustable airflow and basic functionality might limit its appeal to those seeking a more customizable vaping experience. If you’re not a fan of Tekashi 69, the themed versions might not be for you. In that case, the Classic version is a more neutral option. Overall, the Dummy (Takashi 69) Vape is a solid choice for casual vapers, offering a unique blend of style and performance. Review By Vape Vison Read the full article

Collectively, Dunlop’s cosmic constellation of poems uplifts and heals, offering an oasis in which to rest, meditate, and explore.

PRAISE FOR Earth, Water, Fire, Air, Space: Meditative Poems by Julie Dunlop

Julie Dunlop‘s new compendium of poetry is at once a delight, a mysticism, an awakening, and an education. From the get-go we are led by the poet to consider our beings in the context of other entities, living and non-living, with whom we share elements, space, and time. Thus, there is abundance in “Entire communities/of trees/meditating.”—and we enjoy a blessing of “Three hawks sweeping down/from the mountaintops//glid[ing] over acres/of graves—/the smooth curve/of their wings/blessing the bones.” Julie Dunlop possesses in equal amounts an extraordinary sensitivity to the world around her, accompanied by the courage to let her perceptions and intuitions of locus lead and inspire. This poet–whose work offers contiguity of the elements outside ourselves and the elements within ourselves–reveals to us a passion and fascination for the timbre and light of all of nature. Julie Dunlop emerges as a poet of supreme sensibility, craft, and insight. Her poems are beautiful, accessible, of great depth, and instructive to the reader. Indeed, through the insights of this poet, the reader appreciates more profoundly that all matter indeed matters.

–Dr. Thomas O. Phillips, Former Associate Dean, Wake Forest University; Director, Wake Forest Scholars; Associate Teaching Professor, Interdisciplinary Humanities

The earth is grounding, the air is carrying the fragrance of love and compassion, fire gives a warm welcome to the maturation of thoughts, feelings, and emotions, water nourishes the soul, and space gives freedom. Where there is freedom, there is love. Where there is love, there is compassion. Compassion is passion for all elements. So this book of poetry is touching all elements of life as it unfolds the inner soul of the atom to be one with the galaxy. Love and light.

–Dr. Vasant Lad, BAM&S, MASc, Founder and Director of the Ayurvedic Institute in the United States and Vasanta Institute of Ayurveda (VIOA) in India; author of Strands of Eternity and the Textbook of Ayurveda series

Great poet and Ayurveda teacher Julie Dunlop shows us in her new book remarkable visions, the way rescue works — from the heart outward, “the heart/ like a canyon,/ a constellation,/ an ocean// forgiving/ remembering,/ and letting go –// then shining again,/ with devotion/ uncollapsible/ as rock, sunlight, the tide.” How “In the damp coolness of a morning . . ./ the raging wound of a regret softens.” This book is Dunlop’s gift to her readers, a map of the doors between our human selves and the universe. She opens portals, one after another, and makes of them all accessible miracles. For meditation practitioners and others, this book is indispensable.

–Hilda Raz, author of Letter from a Place I’ve Never Been Before: Collected and New Poems

In Earth, Water, Fire, Air, Space Julie Dunlop reminds us of the positive bond between ourselves and the wealth of daily miracles that make up the natural and the metaphysical world. With an exquisite sense of language, she reconnects us to the subtle beauty laced so supportively throughout our everyday lives. Reading these poems can bring calm to the wounded or unsteady heart and an ongoing uplift to the spirit.

–Clint McCown, former Director of the MFA Program at Virginia Commonwealth University, and author of The Dictionary of Unspellable Noises: New and Selected Poems

I fucking love Sassy Starberry. I will never stop being grateful that I found it and was able to repurchase it!!1 And it still works! I'm not going to use it, but the foam still smells like it should. Amazing!!!

My personal picture from my collection

[unhingedwomandiaries]

Right, so I've gone and done it again. Managed to completely fuck up eating like a normal human being. My tongue is ON FIRE - and not in the cool "I just ate something epic" way, but in the "my body is a complete traitor" way. I demolished an entire pizza with sweet peppers and spinach - because apparently I thought I was some kind of INVINCIBLE EATING MACHINE - and my immune system was like, "NOPE. NOT TODAY, SUNSHINE."

Turns out I've got this RIDICULOUS thing called oral allergy syndrome. Which is basically my body deciding that spinach is basically RAGWEED IN DISGUISE. Brilliant. Just BRILLIANT. So now if I dare to enjoy a vegetable, my immune system goes into full-on nuclear meltdown mode. Pollen Food Allergy Syndrome - which sounds like something a bored medical researcher invented just to mess with people like me.

I mean, COME ON. I can't even eat my favourite green without feeling like I've licked the inside of a battery. This is the kind of cosmic joke that makes me want to write a strongly worded letter to whoever's in charge of DESIGNING HUMAN BODIES. If this was a product, it would've been recalled YEARS ago.

Seriously. Who approved this absolute BULLSHIT system? I'd like to speak to the manager of immune responses, because THIS IS NOT WHAT I SIGNED UP FOR.

Absolute. Bollocks.

This method allows for the design to cover every square inch, offering you a canvas to showcase your personality boldly. From cosmic patterns to vibrant landscapes, the possibilities are endless."

This means each pair is as unique as you are." "For those thinking of going bold with text designs, a word of advice: words and intricate patterns may not align perfectly at the seams. However, this shouldn't deter you. The slight imperfections contribute to the uniqueness of your leggings." "Let's dive deeper into what you're getting. Imagine slipping into a pair of leggings that hug your body just right, accentuating your every move without losing their shape. That's the magic of the high spandex content in these leggings." "Speaking of fit, whether you're doing yoga, hitting the gym, or lounging at home, these leggings promise a compression fit that's snug yet incredibly comfortable. And ladies, we all know how crucial the right fit is." "Now, onto the fabric – crafted from an eco-friendly ultra-stretch polyester spandex blend, not only do these leggings support your body, but they also support the planet. Plus, the fabric's breathability and medium weight make it suitable for any season." "Worried about upkeep? Don't be. These leggings are as easy to care for as they are to wear. A simple machine wash and laying them flat to dry is all it takes to keep them in pristine condition. And yes, the vibrant prints will stay just as bright wash after wash." "Imagine wearing your personalized leggings to your next workout session or while running errands. Not only will you feel comfortable and supported, but you'll also be a walking piece of art. It's a fashion statement that truly speaks volumes." Outro "And there you have it, a deep dive into the world of custom-made leggings that promise to keep you comfy and cool with your own unique flair. It's more than just fashion; it's about expressing your individuality in the most creative way possible." "Feeling inspired to design your own pair?

Harnessing the Wisdom of TwinRay for Inner Growth

As summer gives way to autumn and the universe's paradoxical energies usher in a rich harvest, a celestial feast is at our doorstep, inviting those ready to participate. Shekinah Ma, Sanandaji, and TwinRay have been preparing each of us for the upcoming Golden Era—a time of grand energetic transformations, cosmic recalibrations, and a rebirth of human spirit as we currently conceive it.

As the sun slowly descends, heralding the onset of autumn, a palpable change stirs in the atmosphere, ushering in a season of introspection and metamorphosis. Our preparation for this transformative phase is also facilitated by the Divine Human BioCeuticals. These have been meticulously developed to optimally nourish the physical body, helping in the restoration, reconstruction, and rejuvenation of the Divine Human genetic code, cellular matrix, and our twelve physical systems and eight energetic bodies. They provide support for profound detoxification and cleansing, biochemical balance, hormone regulation, and harmony within the endocrine and nervous systems while also fostering whole-brain states. These supplements enhance enzymatic, microbial, and genetic functioning, making them standout in the realm of wholefood supplements.

Each supplement is hand-packed with mantra prayers, charged with a broad spectrum of energy, and personally blessed by the Beloved Masters on their Earthly Altar. To ensure the purity and potency of these wholefood supplements, each product is made in small batches and prepared individually per order. This bespoke approach underscores our commitment to delivering a harmonized experience in phase with the earth's rhythm and the season's essence.

As we mirror the shifts in our own lives, Shekinah Ma and Sanandaji's empathetic wisdom serves as a spiritual beacon, reminding us that change is an integral and sacred facet of life. As the world around me undergoes this transition, we are reminded of life's cyclical nature, where endings and beginnings interweave in an eternal dance of renewal. Each time we awake to a new dawn, the words "I welcome the new season and its blessings" reverberate within us, resonating with the anticipation of the bounty the earth is set to share.

At this sacred crossroads, wee find ourselves stepping into the earth's consciousness, tapping into the ancient wisdom that vibrates through the fully bloomed leaves at its heart. As summer's warmth recedes and the earth gears up for a period of rest, we too are called to shed old layers, let go of what no longer serves us, and prepare for the abundant growth ahead.

Shekinah Ma and Sanandaji are luminous guides, anchoring the universe in harmonious balance as they carry forth wisdom from previous eras, planting it deep within our souls. Their teachings prepare us for the imminent Golden Era and all it embodies—a deeply reflective period marked by significant energetic shifts, cosmic recalibrations, and the rekindling of our collective human spirit.

In our intricate interweaving with the celestial consciousness, we rely on our leaders, Being part of the eloquent space within the TwinRay community is an incredible experience. It's extraordinary to be part of this unfolding reality, so tangible with each seasonal rebirth, that it sweeps us up in its all-encompassing currents.

As we stand on the brink of this new season, awash with the earth's bountiful gifts, we are reminded of the paradoxes that color every sphere of existence. Just as the Golden Era embraces the complexity of cosmic shifts and human evolution, the fading warmth and cool breeze of the season carry the promise of abundance.  As sentient beings eternally existing on this earth, we are seekers of wisdom, with minds to be filled and souls longing for knowledge. We are a dance of light and shadow, of growth and release, of endings and new beginnings.

As the equinox draws near, its celestial guidance illuminates my path, assuring me that our journey is an ongoing, harmonious symphony. The teachings of TwinRay, under the guidance of Shekinah Ma and Sanandaji, are forever entwined with our essence, guiding us through each cosmic shift and welcoming the blessings each new season bestows. This gratitude is immeasurable as we navigate this path not only as a witness and contributor, but also as a learner and seeker. The phrase "rebirth of the spirit of humankind as we know it" resonates deeply as we are prepared by Shekinah Ma and Sanandaji for the impending Golden Era.

The Divine Human BioCeuticals play a crucial role in this journey. Created with care, they supply the body with what it needs for the restoration, rebuilding, and rejuvenation of the Divine Human genetic code, cellular matrix, 12 physical systems, and 8 energetic bodies. Beyond detoxification and cleansing, they balance biochemistries, regulate hormones, harmonize the endocrine and nervous systems, and foster whole-brain states. By enhancing enzymatic, microbial, and genetic functions, they truly excel in the realm of wholefood supplements.

Packed by hand, infused with high-spectrum energy, and blessed by the Beloved Masters on their Earthen Altar, each product is made in small batches to preserve both purity and potency. Their creation is an individual process, honoring each order in a way that aligns with the rhythms of the earth and the essence of each season.

The joyous path ahead is illuminated by the twin rays—it's a journey of soulful exploration that never ends. Together, let us explore the universe's untapped potentials, nurture our collective spirit, and awaken to the beauty that lies within us all. Together we create a space where healing, understanding, and peace can come together in harmony. The universe awaits!
