Ivantill week 2024, day 4: Childhood + Music!

[pastelaspirations]

So, u h.

H O W. HOW, I ASK. ALL I DO IS POST ART ONCE IN A BLUE MOON AND MAKE REALLY CURSED REBLOGS. LIKE, I'M SO VERY GLAD YOU'RE HERE, BUT I CAN'T UNDERSTAND HOW OR WHY YOU'RE HERE-

I also like. Make really angsty, ungodly long fanfics that I do absolutely nothing to promote on this dumpster fire of a blog, but that's besides the point- ANYWAY. HAVE SOME REALLY SKETCHY DOODLES THAT I DID TO THANK YA MAD LADS ;_;

Thank ya, thank ya, you absolute mad lads. I will uh... continue to do what I do. Thank you for joining the ride, even though it's less of a ride and more that I found an abandoned theme park ride and decided to ride it as a prolonged death wish and you inexplicably strapped yourself in next to me with the moldy seatbelt-

Danny gets adopted by Aizawa this, Danny goes to UA undercover that, uh, hey guys, WAKE UP CALL! THERE IS LITERALLY A HERO CALLED “ECTOPLASM.”

WHO USES ECTOPLASM.

TO MAKE C L O N E S.

AND HE WORKS AT UA.

WHY HAVE I NEVER HEARD OF THIS MAN I LITERALLY FOUND OUT ABOUT HIM BY WATCHING THE SHOW.

Yall are sleeping on this, someone get on this already.

[mintandcreme]

Noooooooo, because why do I want to simultaneously watch Love Next Door, & Spy x Family, rewatch ToQger, rewatch Shinkenger, (required to) watch Mouse and My Lovely Liar, read The Blue Castle, finish Caraval and this other random book, AND read my fanfics I’ve been putting off??? Oh, and finally read my Webtoons and catch up with TBHK…

Is this truly the curse of procrastination, or have I gotten rid of my whatever block I had in the summer?

AND TO WRITE OMG TO WRITE…

[ethereal-maia]

was anyone going to tell me that Beth March’s full name was Elizabeth or was I just supposed to find that out by reading little women?

[networkunsupported]

i'm going to be entirely real with you: if you (/nbh) reccomend something and its only selling point is either queer rep, or a list of fanfic tropes, or both, i'm probably actually going to go out of my way to blacklist the tag for said thing altogether

[musette22]

oh my god @puppypeter you're right

[emry-stars-art]

I know this is like VERY VERY early but since you’re asking how many people would be interested I definitely would but I’m not from USA (I’m from Europe) and so I just want to ask if shipping internationally would be sth you do?

(I don’t want to click the option saying that I’m interested if my vote doesn’t count so as not to confuse you if that makes sense :(()

Hi! Thank you so much, I’m planning on doing as much international shipping as Etsy will let me; all that we’ll worry about is how much it’ll cost, because unfortunately international shipping as we all know is generally not nice with price. As long as you are able to cover the cost of shipping, I’ll do my best to ship to whatever country you’re from!

yoooo getting ur app rejected by a group rp lowkey feels like getting a slap in the face and a big F on the report card of roleplaying with a comment in big caps that your character is utterly and unmistakably boring.

[not-gonna-lose]

Well I mean it was bound to happen eventually. Trying to get Atlas to snitch didn't work, so someone just took it upon themself to do it instead. You know how anons are-

Doesn't make it any less annoying, though- Bothering Atlas about this was unnecessary, too...

shocked and appalled that shimura nana fans haven't collectively decided that her pro hero name should be Skywalker

@lee-sol sent 🤳 + 15 for:

ㅤbyan's hobbies

ㅤyour hobbies have never been what others expected of you, and though you used to try to meet those expectations, nothing you did ever seemed to be good enough... so eventually, you started leaning in the opposite direction. you embraced the things you enjoyed despite the disdain cast your way and, in all your anger, you also found yourself taking enjoyment in more destructive uses of your time, in the sorts of activities that were perfect for making use of all those emotions you bottled up for so long. nowadays, your hobbies are a strange mishmash of creation and destruction — from drawing and painting, stick & poke tattooing, creating new outfits to suit your style, and experimenting with makeup to getting high, parkouring your way across the city, playing with fire, breaking anything that isn't yours, and picking fights with anyone who looks at you the wrong way. you know you should probably put more of your effort in to some of these over others, but you stopped caring about what you should and shouldn't do at about the same time you realized that your life never meant anything to those around you anyway.

Six of Crows Characters as DnD Characters: now complete with backgrounds!

Tired, on my sleep meds me better fucking appreciate that I can remember the idea I had

We'll go from easiest to hardest to parse (as if any of them were hard to figure out. They're fantasy characters, they were all but made to be categorized this way lol /hj)*

Kaz Brekker: A Mastermind Rogue with the Urchin Background Do I really need to elaborate? He is the large rat that makes all of the rules... He makes the plans; he's hard to get a jump on; he can sleight of hand like nobody's business. When his allies are near and acting as distractions, he can deal epic sneak attack damage. He's quiet on his feet. CRIME

Jesper Fahey**: Gunsliger Fighter with the Gambler Background Again, fairly self-explanatory. He has guns, but he's not really a crafter of guns***. There is an argument for a different background****; I am not going to entertain it here. Gambler, though his background is still a vital part of his character*****; It's more so than any education or criminal activity he's done.

Matthais Helver+: Beast Master Ranger that multiclasses into an Oathbreaker Paladin with the Zealot Background Arguably the worst class for my (second) least favorite character (of the ones covered in this post, though I'll happily do one of these for the villians/antagonists)++. Starts as a Beast Master Ranger, because of his wolf. Though he very quickly multiclasses into Paladin, but by the time he gets a subclass in that class he has to take Oathbreaker+++. Zealot is self-explainitory, the only other Background I would entertain is if there was an Occultist one (which there probably is, but Zealot is still the more apt option).

Inej Ghafa++++: Soulknife Rogue with the Entertainer Background (her routine specifically being Acrobat, which I don't see as an option, but I'm making an option right now) I can see the argument for Monk or Paladin+++++, but it's the stealth that really cements her as a Rogue. And it's the same deal as Kaz when it comes to canon sneak attacks. While Scout or Assassin could work well as her subclass, maybe even be more on track that Soulknife, I have to go with Soulknife. Like Jesper's gambling that just makes the Gambling Background more fitting than any other, Inej's knives are an integral part of her character. They are the only weapons she uses. So why don't we give her infinite knives? As well as, the fact they are psychic can be flavored to fit into the fact that she is a very religious character who links her knives to her religion by naming each one after one of her saints. Finally, the Entertainer Background. Criminal is a cop-out. Outlanders tend to be solo. Pirate can't count because that's the future.

Wylan Van Sunshine /s^: Bard that multiclasses into an Artillerist Artficier^^ with the Noble Background He doesn't take enough levels in Bard to get a subclass. He probably took 2, decided he disliked it, but his DM wouldn't let him just reflavor the whole character so he multiclassed as fast as he fucking could. Artificer, need I say more? Artillerist because, "An Artillerist specializes in using magic to hurl energy, projectiles, and explosions on a battlefield". Bomb. I rest my case. He was a "noble" like 3 months ago or so, though it should definitely be flavored as like a disgraced noble or something. Homebrew I guess. It took me a while to get here, but once the ball got rolling there was no stopping it. His character just fell into perfect place.

Kuwei Yul-Bo: Pyromancy Sorcerer with the Inheritor Background Again, a class I dislike for a character I dislike. He was very boring to me, very useless despite being at the heart of both books' plots. I literally forgot about him for the majority of Crooked Kingdom. He reminds me of a pc from the last campaign I dmed for a specific group. The player was barely there, and when he was, refused to do anything. I'm not a fan of magic classes if you can tell, but the only thing I truly remember about Kuwei is some inherent link to fire. Thus the idea for Kuwei the Pyromancy Sorcerer was born. He's a Sorcerer and has the Inheritor background for the same reason: his father. He became valuable when he inherited his father's work.

Last but not least, Nina Zenik: A Way of Mercy Monk who multiclasses into an Order of the Ghostslayer Blood Hunter with the Cloistered Scholar Background Originally she was only going to be a Blood Hunter, but then I remembered a character of mine who's a Way of Mercy Monk and how they get this dual ability to both heal and harm. This felt very apt for Nina as a Heartrender, and how she uses her abilities throughout, particularly book one. She multiclasses at the end of that book specifically lol. While I am a diehard fan of the Order of the Lycan and just the absolute range of horror that can come from it, Order of the Ghostslayer is much much more accurate to Nina's abilities. Her abilities after parem are still her old ones, just mutated and screwy. Which, what is a Blood Hunter if not someone whose abilities have become warped and fucked up? Blood Hunters in general are very akin to Heartrenders in my opinion as both can take a physical toll on the user. As well as both deal heavily with the body and utilizing/fucking with its various parts. Ghostslayers are the oldest, historically, order of Blood Hunters, which in combination with the previous sentence makes it perfect for Nina as she has her roots in a very old type of magic. Ghostslayers also focus on fighting the undead, which is another link to her new abilities as Blood Hunters are deeply connected to that which they hunt, so her being able to utilize the dead but them also being her sworn enemy is fitting. Finally, she gets her background from the fact that she was raised, secluded away, in the Little Palace, effectively just studying her craft.

I'm glad to see I got more in-depth, therefore unhinged, as this went on.

*It's been a while since I read the books, pardon any inaccuracies **He was the first one to come to mind lol ***This will come back when we discuss Wylan and how their skills complement each other ****One of the ones that has to do with being a student. Or like criminal, but that's a fucking cop-out, ALL of these motherfuckers (besides Wylan and Kuwei, whom I will be including solely because I did have an idea for him) could have the criminal background *****If this were Hunter the Vigil it'd be his Vice +Surprisingly easy ++I've heard the arguments in his favor, everyone else is just naturally better than him in terms of me liking them +++These guys aren't that old lol ++++She surprisingly took some thinking when it came to a subclass +++++If you know more about Paladins and would like to make an argument, I'd love to hear it, the only Paladin I've played is a pathetic and useless excuse for one (on purpose) ^My beloved little bastard. Everyone infantilizing him or disregarding his sarcasm and willingness to make literal bombs can fight me in a game of Zombie Dice (I am not strong, me and Wylan are premium members of the Scrawny Club) ^^This is what I meant about his and Jesper's abilities complementing each other. Unlike Kaz and Inej who are cut from the same cloth, or-as you'll learn-Nina and Matthais who are effectively 2 sides of the same coin, they really build on each other
