In which I nerd out about PS and portal windows.

THE GREEN TEXT WAS ATTRACTIVE. NOW VIEW THE RED TEXT AGAIN.

Oh god we’re going back to TG again.

John is 1000% done with all these huge logs.

TG: when the film crew zooms where the presidents at TG: im like if that dudes black ill eat my hat TG: turns out he is, so we're all "damn, director's got gumption" TG: like we'll all flip our shit he aint shining shoes or somethin TG: its called freemancipation. if its not pres-election its god-ascension TG: in bruce almighty. whoops, different bruce from the one i just mentioned EB: aaaaaarrrgh!

Oh my fucking god TG was still going on and on with his reality-shattering godraps. That is amazing.

He is creating the perfect pop culture amalgam in there, too! I said it before but TG, you are a treasure.

TG: cant explain to me why this aint condescension to think ill shit a brick TG: not even he can convey the intention with his quickspun wit TG: rather defray all this tension, sit on his lap while he whittles a splint TG: and some guy eyes what he does and patronizes: i guess negrocity's the mother of invention

I’m having an astral journey reading this.

TG, what in the actual fuck are you talking about??

You are the god of rambling I swear

EB: stop rapping for a second you horse's ass! EB: i have something important to talk about. TG: whats up EB: rose is in trouble and she needs help. i was going to connect to her with sburb but i lost my copy! TG: ok

Horse’s ass is a good insult.

Yeah I guess TG now has to bail her out after the car fuckup

EB: also she lost battery power. if she can get back up and running, she'll need someone with the game to get her out of there before her house burns down. EB: so i think you should use your copy of the game to help her! TG: my copy? TG: thats going to be tough

Oh no what will the shenanigans be this time.

EB: why? TG: i lost it TG: its a stupid story and id rather not talk about it TG: shit be embarrassing yo

Oh fucking hell.

Why are all the copies of this game getting lost so easily??? Take care of your videogames!!

What did you do to lose it, now I’m scared of whatever bullshit sequence of events transpired

EB: i thought you said you had two? TG: well yeah TG: one is my brothers copy EB: ok, well get his then! TG: alright TG: but hes not gonna be happy about that

Is this going to be like a Dad situation where there is an interactive boss? That was really great so I hope it is!

EB: whatever. EB: also you might want to read rose's walkthrough to get up to speed on this. TG: oh man EB: what? TG: nothing really TG: look all im saying is the girl tends to lay it on kinda thick you know? EB: /ROLLS EYES

Embrace the purple prose TG! Let it envelop you in its glorious overwritten radiance!

Ooh we’re back with the purple lady herself!

She needs to find an alternative energy source asap, to help John and be able to stay communicated, before she burns to death!

Your LAPTOP is out of BATTERY POWER. There's only one thing left to do. Time to make your way to that BACKUP GENERATOR.

Yup, figured it would end up being relevant.

Rose: Knit laptop cozy to shield your laptop from the rain.

...really?

Time managment is not really your strong point it seems.

Oh you already had one made!!

The heart octopus is just the best.

I remember her inventory system to be an unholy nightmare.

That would be such a waste of time! Besides, you already knitted one a while ago. You retrieve it from your KNITTING BAG and apply it to your LAPTOP. You captchalogue the LAPTOP PLUS COZY.

Cozy laptop is cozy!

Rose: Equip grimoire to strife specibus.

Ooh.

That could either result in getting arcane eldritch powers that man was not meant to know... or just a book to bludgeon people to death with.

Both seem worth it.

NOPE

I change my mind this just screams death.

That would be incredibly ill-advised! There are some dark forces you just don't want to mess around with. You understand this better than most. You put the book down.

I like the fact that Rose has an object with such dark and terrible powers even the inventory system and the narrator are advising us to put it as far away as possible from anything resembling a weapon slot.

Was I correct in the eldritch powers thing??

Rose: Recaptchalogue your items!

Oh hello again you terrible, terrible captchalogue system.

You grab the KNITTING BAG and the GRIMOIRE, in that order. It's always a logistical puzzle with your TREE MODUS. The tree AUTO-BALANCES, leaving the KNITTING BAG accesible in the ROOT CARD.

Imagine having one of this in a real videogame.

Seems the kind of move Yoko Taro would do.

................That rithym minigame

Rose: Allocate knitting needles to strife specibus.

Eesh, that seems like a very nasty weapon by necessity.

You feel a lot more comfortable with this as a weapon. You're so handy with those needles, you feel like you could probably use them to filet a sword fish.

Damn, Rose could be fucking deadly with those.

Say goodbye to all the tender spots of flesh in your body.

John has it lucky with his captchalogue thing.

You lose the ROOT CARD in the process, severing the tree. Hey, careful with all that stuff!

Yeah let’s not break the laptop. Or the Necronomicon, Or both.

Rose: Knit plush cuddle-cthulhu to soothe nerves.

Greatest idea so far.

...it’s the actual necronomicon isn’t it.

That would also be a preposterous waste of time!!! Besides, you're quite sure you've never heard of this creature called "Cthulhu" before. There are however many other specimens of the ZOOLOGICALLY DUBIOUS you're familiar with. Such as...

Or this universe’s version of it at least.

Rose: Consult the grimoire.

!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

IT’S FLUTHLU!! WITH A BUNCH OF HORRIFYING BEASTS AROUND IT.

IN THE IMAGINARY CITY STREETS

HOW HAVE YOU BEEN, LAST TIME I SAW YOU, YOU GOT STABBED BY A VERY CHARISMATIC DETECTIVE AND BEHEADED BY A WINDOW PORTAL.

IN CASE YOU COULDN’T TELL, I REALLY APPRECIATE THE REFERENCE.

FLUTHLU, FOUL PATRICIAN OF MISERY. To hear his mammoth belly gurgle is to know the Epoch of Joy has come to an abrupt end

Oh god, we get to see even greater elder gods now!!

Nrub’yiglith.... is that a reference to Shrub-Niggurath? Seems the most likely one to me.

And NRUB'YIGLITH, SHAMEBEAST KING OF GROTESQUERY, WRITHE-LORD OF THE MOIST BEYONDHOOD. Hearing his melodious chirps and tongue-clicks causes one's bones to explode.

WRITHE-LORD OF THE MOIST BEYONDHOOD!!

These descriptions are fucking amazing.

Oglogoth....Ok, this is definitely Azathoth, the daemon sultan.

Nice!

And of course there's OGLOGOTH, THE DEEP ONE. Whenever he grinds his teeth, all the children of a random galaxy somewhere will frown continuously for a nine thousand year span.

These fucking descriptions.... Holy shit give me 500 of these.

He is the first and smallest of the SMALLER GODS, appointed in servitude of a vile, unfathomable pantheon of MIDDLING GODS which caters to the whims of the NOBLE CIRCLE OF HORRORTERRORS, an omniscient, omnipotent order of the elite few, forever cloaked in the darkness of the FURTHEST RING.

What the fuck???

So in the homestuck universe, Azathoth is just a scrub! There are a whole three tiers above him in power!

The noble circle of horrorterrors, cloaked in the darkness of the furthest ring...

Someone should make a story with all this lore, or use it in a DnD campaign. Some of this is legitimately really good.

OH MY GOD

THE WINDOW PORTALS. THEY ARE OUTLINED HERE AS WELL.

And then there's this strange page containing some rather mysterious notes on summoning procedures. You've never been quite sure what these diagrams are getting at.

.....of course they are the summoning rituals!!

They lead to the imaginary city and if you cut their power while you are outside an eldritch being appears!!

Flutulhu was summoned after a city-wide blackout, so I wonder what would be needed for oglogoth... I was going to say a planet-wide blackout, but the imaginary city is.....all that exists over there, alongside the four realms and the cathedral/brothel/sun and moon/GPI, and all the other cosmology.

Maybe if you were outside a window during the last supermassive black hole?? That is probably the most pitch black you could ever get while in the imaginary world....

There is a rule, number 5632B Subclause 29 of the 'Code of Conduct and Vestimentary Regulations for Tarask Administrative Personnel and Affiliates' to be exact, that forbids public servants and their direct entourage from wearing ‘any garment or accessory, either upon the body or the head, that contains one or multiple specimens of living or reanimated creature, be it animal, insectoid, humanoid or supernatural in nature’. This particular rule is not one the administration is particularly fond of, because its inception shows a certain amount of weakness in the bureaucratic apparatus that, one assumes, said apparatus would rather forget. However, it remains on the books in spite of this, as a safeguard for future repetitions of the occurence that lays at its inception, a way, one understands, to make sure the administration will not be taken by surprise again.

It started, according to the oral history of the event, when on a trip to the nearby capital of Catilina, a young ingénue named Aurora Maximus came into contact with a ‘Weaver’. These Weavers were, at the time, people who adhered to a particular style of clothing and make-up and who, most strikingly, had a habit of weaving their hair into shapes. It has long been fashionable in the capital to wear your hair long and coil it into braids upon the head, and Weavers, it seems, would go the extra step and create shapes such as birds, or bows, or animal ears, particularly in an effort to make themselves stand out within the rather colourful nightlife of Catilina.

Miss Maximus saw the style and, so the story goes, was inspired. The Weaver style had at this point been popular in Catilina for a few decades, particularly among those fairly young in years, and was seen as typical teenage fare by its citizens. When transplanted to the bureaucratic center that is Vestinex, however, the trend became something else altogether. Theories abound as to the reasons of this, but the main one speculates that the style formed a rare creative outlet that was quickly seized by a frankly bored population.

Vestinex, being the sensible city that creates and processes almost all of the paperwork for the entire empire, has a fairly strict ruleset, you see, indicated primarily by the 'Code of Conduct and Vestimentary Regulations for Tarask Administrative Personnel and Affiliates', and a few other tomes. These specify, for example, uniforms for its people, based mostly on status and role within the government, that apply to both the public servants themselves and to their partners, children and other members of the household. The Code furthermore prescribes rules of conduct befitting a government emissary of the Tarask Empire, and both administrative workers and their retinue are expected to hold up the honour of their status as a government official by adhering to these rules. This includes refraining from alcohol, wild dancing, playing loud music or putting on lewd spectacles such as romantic theatre. Considering the entirety of Vestinex is populated with public servants, it stands to reason that such forms of low entertainment are rarely, if ever, organised within the city limits. Vestinex is, after all, a very sensible and highly regulated society, built and maintained at maximum efficiency so as to keep the gears of the empire running smoothly.

However, for al its fervour in regulating activities and clothing, Vestinex had, at this point in time, no regulations for hair. The oversight seems strange, but can perhaps be explained out of a demand for cultural sensitivity. For while most of the culturally Tarask citizens crop their hair short out of a sense of practicality, the dwarven and elven workers attracted by the administration tend to enjoy some more whimsical styles, choosing to braid their hair and beards and perhaps even embellish them with beads or rings. So it was, perhaps, that the Vestinex government elected to keep hair unregulated, opting instead to allow a certain amount of cultural individuality while individually advising those public servants that veered off too far into the realms of the fanciful.

Either way, it appears Vestinex was not quite ready, regulatory-wise, for what would follow when miss Maximus showed up to a bi-weekly Young Person's Mingling Event, wearing her hair fashioned into the shape of a swan. She was, of course, quietly judged by the many chaperones at the event, who deemed such a fashion silly but otherwise harmless, the drolls of a teenage girl and a whim she would hopefully soon grow out of. Such leniency was, sadly, mistaken, because miss Maximus started a trend. One that was governed not by any kind of regulatory restraint but instead by the very humanoid need to ‘one-up’ others.

The next Young Person's Mingling Event, for instance, contained quite a lot more of these silly hairstyles. There were wings, more swans, one boy with beautifully long black hair had managed a serviceable crow. The chaperones, this time, did choose to reprimand their wards, but they could not reasonably punish them, for they were not breaking any rules.

It is possibly at this point of realization that things truly lifted off. Other family members got involved. Supplies of hair oils and ribbons, filler material and bendable latticework were imported from the capital. Swans turned into eagles, crows into elaborate depictions of cats. Soon, not only teenagers, but also their parents and house servants spent hours braiding, oiling and shaping their hair into ever more elaborate displays.

Of course, not everyone was pleased with this turn of events. Requests were sent by disturbed citizens, reports were written up, guidelines suggested. Committees gathered, but the wheels of law do not turn fast. In the mean time, fashion continued to be made. A teenage girl named Lithid Taxandria started a small publication in which she drew and wrote down the best examples of the style, giving tips and tutorials on the side. It is through this publication that we know that on one December Networking Event, the Shadow Minister for the Department of Roadworks showed up wowing everyone by wearing, fastened to his head and worked into his hair, a small latticework ball filled with fireflies. It was beautiful. It was inspiring. It was the beginning of the end.

Not to be outdone by a mere Shadow Minister, others started fashioning moving spectacles. Butterflies were employed, glittering beetles found themselves trapped in necklaces. The Field Executive for the Cabinet of Educational Writings Pertaining Woodcutting was spotted wearing a bracelet that held a shoal of small but sadly rather short-lived glittering fish. One unnamed person went so far as to keep two live, white mice in lacework tunnels throughout their elaborate pompadour.

The trend came to a head one fateful July evening, at the Second Yearly Celebration for the Resurrection of the Nuncial Library, when the wife of the Secretary for Provisions to the Eastern Border wore a beautiful, shimmering, oversized earring containing a small winged creature that glowed with a soft orange light. It is unknown whether or not she was aware of the exact nature of the creature within this jewel. And to be fair, it is not known to this day exactly what said truly creature was. Theories abound that it was an elemental, or perhaps a small demonoid figure, summoned inside a cage that, it appears, shattered some time throughout the night.

What we do know, is what happened next. The Nuncial Library burned down (again), with many very important records lost. Twenty five people died, including the Head of the Department for Trade in Bricks and Sheep, and the very popular Undersecretary for Traffic and Town Signage. Eye witness accounts vary, with some speaking of a fireball, a rift in the fabric of reality or just a lightning strike. One witness, who suffered heavy burns, swears they saw a giant hulking figure covered in scales descend upon the networking event, thrashing furniture and flinging dignitaries around.

Either way, the trend became unfashionable overnight. Teenagers, once they were done mourning, cut their hair or went back to simple loose styles. Their parents quietly put away the supplies. Butterflies were released back into the outdoors. Eight months and 24 days later, rule 5632B Subclause 29 was finalized and written into the Code.

(One of the cities in my DnD campaign is a Forbidden Palace meets Bartleby the Scrivener, with like a pinch of Dangerous Liaisons. It’s great.)

So I am working on my DnD campaign, which is heavily inspired by The Forgotten Realms, and I cam across this when reading up on the history of sun elves:

Fifth Crown WarEdit

The fragile peace was shattered in -9,200 DR when the Corellon Larethian-mandated Elven Court decreed that the sun elf clan of Vyshaan was responsible for the thousands of years of war. The Vyshaantar Empire disputed the charges and madly declared war on everyone. Within 200 years, the ancient kingdom of Aryvandaar was no more.

So basically the Fifth Crown War went:

Elven Court: You’re responsible for so much war, like over 1000 years of it (which the Vyshaantar Empire totally is, they started it and everything) So after all this time we are finally going to make you take responsibility for all the kingdoms you conquered and destroyed.

The Vyshaantar Empire: WHAT!? HOW DARE!? WE NEVER DID ANYTHING WRONG! WE NEVER EVEN FOUGHT IN A WAR! WE DECLARE WAR ON YOU!

The Vyshaantar Empire: *loses and is destroyed in 1/6 the time it took them to create their own empire*

I’m actually gonna infodump about my dnd campaign (and promptly close this app and forget it exists for months, obviously) because I’m bored and why not!!

So, basically, world setting is classic high fantasy. It’s not worth talking about every place, there’s only one important one: Solisaxum. (Yes, that’s just ‘Sun Rock’ in Latin, I’m a TTRPG player not fucking Tolkien) it’s a place with a big theocratic vibe, worshipping the sun and all that — the big twist is that this Texas-sized island is split into about a dozen sects of this faith, from ‘night is bad’ to ‘night is tranquil, actually’ to ‘there’s gonna be an eclipse and we’re all gonna DIE’. Keep your eye on the “night is bad” guys, they’ll show up later.

Now, our lovable band of misfits begins their journey in quasi-Spain, across an ocean, where there are some demon attacks happening. So they kill a few demons, head to the bigger city, kill a few more and find the portal they’re coming from. Demon-cult-lady killed lovable misfit 1 (Brine Rocklicker)’s mentor a few years back, so he’s reasonably bloodthirsty, but she escapes and they must make chase to her new destination: Solisaxum. And, yknow, kick the portal into the darkness of the cavern below, hear it shatter on the rocks, and it DEFINITELY won’t be a problem later.

Well, whaddya know. It turns out Solisaxum isn’t quite the best, since the party can’t find that damn Demon Lady but she’s probably behind the disappearances, and the clergy is proceeding with the solstice festival, so that shit would probably be best resolved early so —

Not to derail or overwhelm (who am I kidding, I am doing that, but this is a text post and I feel like it!! <3) but here’s a quick history lesson:

Long long ago, some lovecraft fucked up proto-demons show up in the evil planes. They’re really nasty content from the Pathfinder system, weird bat-spider-bug-fungus things that make me gag if I look at them too long. Of course, demons live there now, so what happened? Well, Charon, Horseman of Death, decides to fuck around. “What happens,” Charon says, “If I stick this weird evil-soul-larva into the living realm of the abyss?” And the first demon pops out — and then the abyss starts popping them out on its own.

Obviously, this fucks over the Qlippoth. Where are they gonna live? And the Demons will always show up, as long as there are mortals with souls!

History lesson aside, when the Hierophant of the sect does evil magic and is full of centipedes, it’s clearly abyssal. But the party doesn’t even know that the ancient evil of the Qlippoth exists, or that it was their portal, or that they’re trying very hard to revive one of their dead gods, who is a shattered statue as of this moment.

…And then there’s only, like, 75% of the campaign left.

Made some more art (as one does when procrastinating on programming homework)

These two (or rather, one) are known as Altha-Tchulta in my DnD campaign. They used to be apart of a superorganism that formed a dream realm known as the Kaleidoscope World. When the superorganism attempted to bear offspring, however, an unknown entity interrupted the process, dealing enough damage to shatter the being into three parts (four, if you count the unborn offspring, who has already played a massive role in one of my two campaigns that I run). Before The Shattering, Altha-Tchulta was the two-headed serpent deity associated with the heavens and its celestial bodies. After the Shattering happened, however, Altha-Tchulta was imprisoned in a timeless void known as Black Space, where it has been slowly corrupting since. Nowadays, they have taken on a much more hideous form (not shown)— The Darklight Monarch. Now seeking to bring the heavens crashing down to earth, Altha-Tchulta is a husk of the noble god they once were.

Also, knowing Matt and Taliesin and the whole nerdy cast, and knowing how Classic Kids (of which a good portion of the CR cast are!) grow up on a particular mythological it would not surprise me that Tharizdun and the Luxon are comparable to Tiamat and Bahamut.

In Hesiod's Greek creation myth, before the creation of the gods and the dividing of the worlds, it is said in the beginning there was nothing. And from this nothing was born Chaos (which may be a combination of all the elements - possibly related to Exandrian elemental planes). From Chaos came the universe, Erebus first which became the realm of the dead, then Nyx, Aether (light), Tartarus (the deepest pit of the world's), and Eros (love) in varying orders depending on the source.

Theres another version where Nyx is first as chaos, and the world is an egg, from which Eros is born, who makes the two halves of the egg into the Earth and the Heavens and incites them to love which precipitates the rest of creation.

The point! being that I think its entirely possible that Tharizdun and the Luxon are two halves of some absolutely unknowable whole from a time before fate and the gods, when nothing was set into form or into paths other than the physical truth that entropy and action work in continual opposition and that action ( including the creation of the self and of matter...) is the process by which fate is spun.

I'm starting not to make sense but ever since campaign 2 when Matt started to explain exactly what Tharizdun is - very literally the chain oblivion which desires to tear apart the world, and also explained that the Luxon is some creation shattered and desiring to be built, piece by piece into a creature of understanding, I've felt like there's an echo here to the Hesiod myths, which say chaos is the founding of the world.

There's no analog in Greek mythology to a Ragnarok like rebirth cycle but there's a good handful of myths about the gods choosing paths that avoid the kind of endings predicted by prophecy which is reminiscent of the DnD path of a divine mandate being the driving force behind campaign arcs. And in the end we don't know what would happen if the Luxon pieces were ever reunited. Its fun to think about but I feel like I'm starting not to make sense, so I'll just leave it here...

two thoughts, now that my facts are in order for the moon lore from Call of the Netherdeep.

First, the fate-touched. We're going way back and a little ways off the path here, so bear with me.

"The red moon of Ruidus watches, twisting the fates of those who have the power to shape the course of history." Throughout Call of the Netherdeep, Ruidus is referred to as a force that twists fate. And from the Tal'dorei Campaign Setting Fate-Touched background: "Many lives and many souls find their ways through the patterns of fate and destiny, their threads following the path meant for them, oblivious and eager to be a part of the woven essence of history meant for them. Some souls, however, glide forth with mysterious influence, their threads bending the weave around them, toward them, unknowingly guiding history itself wherever they walk... there are many communities that regard the status as a terrible omen, treating a confirmed fate-touched with mistrust and fear."

I was rewatching parts of early campaign 2, and something stood out to me in C2E32. When Caleb has another dream/vision about the beacon, he essentially sees a massive field of weaving golden threads, all moving. And sometimes, there are little bursts of light and a thread will change direction, leaving behind little shadow threads at its point of divergence. From this imagery, I personally think that that these are threads of fate, the bursts of light decisions made, and the shadow threads discarded timelines from which certain dunamancy spells draw (i.e. Resonant Echo, which draws "a version of the self from a discarded timeline," as Essek says).

Immediately after this, Caduceus looks at the beacon and very quickly picks up on the details that Caleb took so long to grasp (because Cad has spent so much of his life in meditation, in spaces like that of the beacon). He asks if the beacon "makes him uncomfortable," to which Matt responds, "no. It doesn't feel unnatural — it feels like a look behind the curtain."

Later that episode, we get this when Fjord looks at the beacon: "In that brief moment, you feel this momentary release, like a tether that previously had gone unseen is loosened. And there, in that brief bit of unexpected free-floating freedom amongst the darkness, that warm, gray, centered energy drifts towards you."

I think that what the beacon actually does when it gives people that mote of possibility is that it loosens the threads of fate that had been holding them, makes them malleable. To Caleb, the beacon felt warm and inviting, he had dreams about the beacon, so perhaps his thread was destined to be intwined with it anyway — but for Caduceus, the space felt cold, so even though he was in the presence of the beacon it perhaps wasn't a big part of the path the Wildmother set for him. And for Fjord, who at this time had literally been pulled on a thread towards Uk'otoa, felt a tether loosen, like the beacon has given him a chance to subvert that fate (which, in a way, it literally does by giving him a reroll). And we see this in the way the Kryn talk about the process of rebirth: they believe that the path of the Luxon, the path of consecution, is itself an act of defiance against the fates and destinies that the gods have set out for them (which makes a lot of sense for a society of drow, who were under Lolth's influence and design for so long).

The fate-touched background gives someone one luck point, used in the same way as the feat. The same thing that the beacon does when it grants a mote of possibility. The background also notes that these individuals "glide forth with mysterious influence," and if Ruidus is able to twist these threads of fate like the beacons can, perhaps that's what all this means — the Luxon bends fate towards freedom, while Ruidus bends it towards ill-omen.

and now, the moon's connection to Tharizdun:

From Call of the Netherdeep: "During the Founding, a time when the gods still walked the face of Exandria, the world’s divine creators discovered an unidentifiable power seeping through the fabric of reality. Legends assert that this alien influence was a threat to all life on Exandria, and the gods banded together to banish it... This cancerous incursion of dark power is said to have crystallized into Ruidus, the small, vermilion moon."

From the Critical Role Wiki (pulling from multiple episodes): "Tharizdun is depicted, if at all, as 'a creature of rolling, hungry ink and darkness,' a spreading cloud of lightless destruction. It is endless, black, inky, filled with teeth and malice, laughter and hatred. While the other entities in the Pantheon have different interpretations of how they are depicted in artwork, tapestries, and tomes, every record of Tharizdun is amorphous and without physical manifestation... Tharizdun is not best understood as a god like the others. Its 'mind' is profoundly alien, and does not carefully form complicated plots. It is a primal, subconscious force of annihilation that insidiously corrupts what it can to undermine everything, opportunistically masquerading in the forms of what other minds desire, and seeping in to twist those minds' intent and perspective toward Tharizdun's own destructive ends."

During the Founding, "the Primordials' slaughter of the mortal races the creator gods had formed drew the attention of the demons of the Abyss, who poured into the world to feast on the carrion. In the battles that followed, the Prime Deities locked Tharizdun away." That sounds a whole lot like "an unidentifiable power seeping through the fabric of reality" — unidentifiable because Tharizdun had literally just created it. They banished it by imprisoning Tharizdun, but they couldn't fully get rid of it, and so what remained of the power crystalized into Ruidus. Both that unknown power and Tharizdun are described as "alien, unidentifiable, threatening to all life, dark influences."

However, when Tharizdun was imprisoned during the Founding, it was imprisoned beneath Gatshadow Mountain in Tal'dorei. It was imprisoned in the same place after its release during the Calamity, and today, six divine shackles hold Tharizdun at the bottom of the Abyss. It isn't from the Abyss, it's believed by some to be older than Exandria itself (like the Far Realm), and it actually dreams the Abyss and its demons into existence. It created the Abyss. The Abyss is a prison of Tharizdun's own making, just like the Apotheon's Heart of Despair.

Tharizdun, above all else, seeks freedom. It wants to be released from its prison so that it can impose destruction upon the world. The Apotheon, the most powerful being we know of that has been touched by Ruidus (and therefore, in this hypothetical, Tharizdun), seeks the same thing: freedom from the prison that he dreamed into existence around himself. At the end of Call of the Netherdeep, if the Apotheon is released without being reconciled, he will "bring ruin to Exandria" by the light of Ruidus, which would remain full for "one year and one day," manifesting over the world as an inky, black cloud that would rain destruction upon entire swaths of continents at once.

The Apotheon was touched by Ruidus' magic, but its curse and corruption was something that twisted the Apotheon's own magic (which he got from the gods), using his emotional turmoil and need for freedom to change it into something corrupting and imprisoning. And if Ruidus' magic is, in fact, a crystalized form of Tharizdun's own magic, then suddenly all of those parallels — the prison of his own making, the yearning for freedom, the endless rage and roiling emotion, the corruption of ruidium — make sense.

The other powerful entities that we know were touched by Tharizdun itself are the Somnovem. It was Tharizdun's influence that shaped what Cognouza would become once it encountered the astral storm, and like the Apotheon, the Somnovem sought freedom from endless emotional torment, were able to dream things into existence, and — like Tharizdun's influence caused throughout campaign two — were hungry. Cognouza itself was a ravenous body separate from the tormented minds, somewhat like the Apotheon's duality of his body being a storm of roiling emotions while his mind was trapped helplessly within it. When Cognouza died and the Somnovem were released, Kingsley Tealeaf had a dream of the city surrounded in twisting black chains, that shattered as the city died with the sound of Tharizdun's primal scream echoing across the planes — representing Tharizdun's lost hold on the city.

From Call of the Netherdeep: "The gods agreed to create a tale about Ruidus to conceal its alien origin from the mortals of the world, informing them that it was a moon of ill omen, and its magical influence was always to be avoided. This tale concocted by the gods was not a lie, for Ruidus’s alien magic twists the fate of those who are born or embark on ventures while bathed in its vermilion light."

and my crack theory for the connection between the two:

No, I don't think that the Luxon is actually Tharizdun in disguise like the Angel of Irons was. Matt has presented the Luxon in a way that, to me, makes this very unlikely. However.

Tharizdun is... unknowable. It is a being, and yet it is a world. It is unfathomable darkness, hatred, hunger, and malice. It seeks to destroy and consume, to enslave and annihilate, to unleash chaos. It seeks to twist souls and fate, to manipulate and take and transform, so that those souls may release it from its imprisonment beneath Gatshadow.

The Luxon is... unknowable. It is a being, and yet it is the endless expanse, the world, within the beacons. It is unfathomable light, burning, blinding, the strength of a star. It seeks to know, to question, to free and to break the chains of fate. It seeks to make souls better, more knowledgable, so that they may release it from its slumber in the core of the world.

There is not light without darkness, nor darkness without light.

I think that Tharizdun, the Chained Oblivion, is to the Luxon as Tiamat is to Bahamut. Both massive, unknowable beings that themselves are not beings but worlds.

So, following this line, what if Tharizdun has its own version of the beacons? Beacons that are very similar to the Luxon, yet are twisted, ravaging, alien, just like Tharizdun itself is to the Luxon. What if that's the thing that Imogen is holding — something so much like a beacon, but not? And what if Ruidus is a massive fucking beacon of Tharizdun that sometimes rains meteors that themselves become smaller beacons, that has enough power emanating from it to twist the fates of those who are born beneath its full light?

《丝金录》是非官方的万智牌背景故事资源目录（包括小说、漫画、短篇故事和世界设定），方便万智背景故事爱好者检索查阅，计划于每月7日更新。点击文章中文题目可直接跳转译文。

Filigree Text is a Vorthos-oriented unofficial catalogue of Magic: the Gathering official flavor resources (including novels, comics, short stories and world-setting materials), updated on a monthly basis, ususally on the 7th of each month.

具体编目方式如下：

The catalogue is organzied in this way:

故事所在时空 - 资源类型+出版时间+序号 - 英文名 - 中文名（若无译文则不注明中文名）

Plane - Type of Resource+Time of Publishing+Sequence Number - English Title - Chinese Title

其中蓝色部分即为用于检索查阅的丝金录代码（丝金码）

The blue-color part is the Filigree Text Number (FTN)

如：发生在多明纳里亚时空的《兄弟之战》系1998年出版的第一本小说，编号为 D-N1998.1- The Brothers' War - 兄弟之战，丝金码为D-N1998.1。

E.g. The Brother's War, the first novel published in 1998 on Urzar-Mishra war in the plane of Dominaria is catalogued as D-N1998.1 - The Brother's War - 兄弟之战，with D-N1998.1 as FTN.

而短篇故事《Liliana’s Origin: the Fourth Pact》是官网"未知领域"栏目2015年发布的第19个短篇，故事发生在多明纳里亚时空和依尼翠时空，编号为 DI-UR2015.19 - Liliana’s Origin: the Fourth Pact - 莉莲娜的起源:第四契约，丝金码为DI-UR2015.19 。

While the short story Liliana’s Origin: the Fourth Pact, the 19th short story published on WotC's website under the column of Uncharted Realms, depicting a story happened in the plane of Dominaria and Innsitrad is cataloued as DI-UR2015.19 - Liliana’s Origin: the Fourth Pact - 莉莲娜的起源:第四契约, with DI-UR2015.19 as FTN.

Xaira, a very hot and definitely trustworthy vampire NPC from a D&D game I've been playing in.

We're stumbling our way through some political intrigue in a secret undead city right now, and I really don't know if it's going to end well BUT we're having a great time.

An Ancient Rivalry Update

So I’ve finished writing up the character sheets for my Forgotten Realms 5e AU.

I don’t want to share them until I get the drawings finished. However I feel I can give you a sneak peak of what to expect. I’ll list their race, class, class specialty, alignment and backstory, as well as a few notes explaining my thoughts behind my decisions.

Eric Cartman Race: Human (Illuskan) Class: Wizard Class Specialty: War Mage Tradition Alignment: Neutral Evil Backstory: Wizard Prince Eric was born to Grand Witch Liane Cartman in the city-state of Kupa Keep in the Greypeak Mountains. Liane never married and as such, no one knows who Eric's father is. Regardless, Liane spoiled Eric rotten, always giving into his wants and giving him anything he wanted, even after taking in the half-orc Kenny McCormick into her home. Because he was never disciplined, Eric developed a massive ego and an insatiable thirst for attention, as well as the determination to get that attention by any means necessary. One day his mother took him to the High Forest where a meeting was held with Sylvan Lord Gerald and Verdant Lady Sheila Broflovski of the wood elf tribe of Larnion. There he met their son, Sylvan Inheritor Kyle and Eric proceeded to spew all manner of racist drivel to Kyle who eventually snapped and hit him hard in retaliation. Liane decided that would be the perfect time to leave and took Eric home with her. Once home, Eric convinced his mother to declare war on Larnion, saying that it would be the best course of action for Kupa Keep. She believed him and did so, however the first battle claimed not just her life, but the lives of the Sylvan Lord and Verdant Lady, leaving Eric and Kyle to lead their respective peoples. Still angry at Kyle for humiliating him, Eric vowed to wipe out all of Larnion, if it was the last thing he did.

Notes: In SOT Cartman is unusually tanky for a wizard, as is reflected in the War Mage tradition which not only boosts the power of spells but grants magical protection, Likewise, based on what I’ve seen in the show, Cartman comes across as a Neutral Evil character, someone who looks out for only their interests often at the expense of others.

Stan Marshwalker Race: Human (Illuskan) Class: Ranger Class Specialty: Beast Conclave Alignment: Chaotic Good Backstory: Stan was born into the Marshwalker tribe, a tribe of human rangers and druids who frequently migrated between the High Forest and the Marsh of Chelimber. Their dedication to protecting nature put them in the good graces of the elves of the High Forest and the two groups had an informal alliance. One day, however, a mysterious illness wiped out all the Marshwalkers, all but one, a baby boy who was found by a wood elf ranger of the Larnion tribe. The ranger, Sariel Meliamne, decided to raise him herself and somehow managed to get the Sylvan Lord Gerald and Verdant Lady Sheila's blessing to do so. Stan always felt out of place among the Larnion elves and the fact that none of them were willing to be friends with him only made things worse. However, Stan managed to find a friend in the last person he expected to, the Sylvan Lord and Verdant Lady's son, Sylvan Inheritor Kyle. Stan was surprised to find that Kyle also felt like an outcast among the others and the two became best friends. It certainly helped that Sariel was frequently the one chosen to watch Kyle whenever his parents had to leave for another one of the Red Lady's meetings. As the two grew older, they became more and more inseparable with Stan eventually becoming Kyle's vassal. However, things around home became heated after Kyle and his parents had a confrontation with Grand Witch Liane Cartman of Kupa Keep and her son Wizard Prince Eric with an actual fight breaking out between the two heirs that ended in Kyle's victory. Eric vowed revenge against Kyle that he acted upon after both of them finally became the rulers of their respective societies, by declaring war on the Larnion tribe. In addition to the war, Stan has also been distracted by all manner of thoughts, the most prevalent one being wondering what happed to the rest of the Marshwalkers and trying to come to turns with his growing feelings for his best friend.

Notes: Whenever the boys play their fantasy game, Stan explicitly states that he’s a ranger and in SOT his character’s backstory is that he’s a human raised by elves.

Kyle Broflovski Race: Wood Elf Class: Druid Class Specialty: Circle of Dreams Alignment: Neutral Good Backstory: Kyle was born to Sylvan Lord Gerald and Verdant Lady Sheila Broflovski of the Larnion wood elf tribe. Growing up, Kyle felt alone among his people. The other kids his age were either jealous of his position or so star-struck by it that they failed to see him as an actual person. There was one exception though, Stan Marshwalker, an orphaned human raised by one of the tribe's hunters. The two became close friends and often did everything together. Though while Stan was learning how to hunt and track from his adoptive mother, Kyle was learning about druidic magic and how to run the tribe from his parents. One day, during a visit from Grand Witch Liane Cartman of Kupa Keep, Kyle met her son, Wizard Prince Eric Cartman. In spite of his best efforts to be nice, the Wizard Prince was shown to be a selfish and racist brat and Kyle could only take so much of it before he snapped and not only told off the Prince, but also attacked him and injured him pretty badly. Fortunately, at that time, the Grand Witch decided it was time to leave, but Eric vowed that he would get back at Kyle and the rest of his people for this. Sure enough, by the time Kyle had turned 25 there was a battle between Kupa Keep and Larnion that ended with the deaths of Grand Witch Liane, Sylvan Lord Gerald and Verdant Lady Sheila, leaving Kyle to take up leadership of Larnion while still considered a child by his people's standards. Not satisfied with the last battle, newly crowned Grand Wizard Eric declared that he would wipe out the Larnion tribe if its the last thing he does.

Notes: Even though the faction in SOT is the Drow Elves of Larnion, I felt that wouldn’t work in the Forgotten Realms for a few reasons. First being that the drow in the Forgotten Realms, and pretty much all DnD campaign settings live underground, rather than the forest that the other boys pretended that Kyle’s backyard was. Hell gameplay-wise, the drow are extremely sensitive to sunlight. Second, the drow in DnD are both evil and matriarchal (try not to think about the implications), and so probably wouldn’t be too keen on taking orders from a man. So I settled on making him a wood elf instead. I picked druid as his class because in SOT several of his battle quotes involve him mentioning nature or things in nature and thematically works to make him a foil to Cartman who’s a wizard. Also, given that in many other games, such as FBW and Phone Destroyer featuring him having a moveset/card theme being more support based (he only has one regular offensive move in FBW and his deck theme, the Mystical Set revolves around healing and energy manipulation) and the druid having access to a lot of healing and support magic makes it work as well. I also wanna bring attention to his age of 25 in this universe. While elves reach physical maturity at the same time humans do, they’re still considered children until they turn 100, so that’s what the line “still considered a child by his people’s standards” is referring to.

Kenny McCormick Race: Half-Orc Class: Fighter Class Specialty: Arcane Archer Archetype Alignment: Chaotic Good Backstory: Kenny was born to Lady Carol McCormick and her secret orc lover Stuart. The two of them were killed by Stuart's tribe but Grand Witch Liane Cartman rescued the baby Kenny and took her into her home. However, while Liane doted on her own son Eric, Kenny was cared for by the palace servants. She was also given a special mask to hide her more orcish features from less accepting people, at the expense of muffling her speech. As she grew, Kenny discovered she had an aptitude for archery and would train extensively while her foster brother Eric studied magic. After Liane died and Eric rose as the new Grand Wizard of Kupa Keep, Kenny watched as he completely ignored the needs of their people in favor of sating his own desires, such as his lingering grudge against Sylvan Lord Kyle of the Larnion wood elf tribe. Behind his back, Kenny sought out the help of brave adventurers in order to save Kupa Keep from its own ruler.

Note: Kenny’s character in SOT is explicitly stated to be a female half-orc so I went with that. Also, given that Kenny’s moveset in SOT has him using a bow and a few magic-like special moves influenced my decision for his class as well.

Butters Stotch Race: Human (Illuskan) Class: Paladin Class Specialty: Oath of Devotion Alignment: Lawful Good Backstory: Butters was born in Kupa Keep to a merchant Stephen and his wife Linda who treated him poorly as a child. When he turned 15 he ran away to join the army in order to get away from his abusive parents. There, he also joined the Church of Ilmater, the god of endurance and learned the ways of the paladin. For a while he served in the army under the leadership of Grand Witch Liane Cartman and his naïveté led him to believe that her bratty and sociopathic son Eric would be a worthy successor. He also caught several glimpses of Witch Princess Kenny, despite the Cartmans' best attempts to keep her a secret. Upon both learning of what Eric plans to do to the wood elf tribe of Larnion and seeing that Eric cared more about this plan than the well-being of his people, Butters faith in the Grand Wizard was completely shattered and, alongside a good friend Token Black, a cleric of the god Lathander, decided to look for help to possibly dethrone the Grand Wizard or at least make him see reason.

Notes: Paladins are traditionally of the Lawful Good alignment, so I gave him that. Also, the reason I chose Ilmater, the god of endurance in the Forgotten realms is that Ilmater values self-sacrifice and is generally considered the patron deity of all who suffer abuse, no matter what that abuse may be, so it seemed thematically appropriate for Butters.

Clyde Donovan Race: Human (Illuskan) Class: Warlock Class Specialty: Pact of the Fiend Alignment: Chaotic Good Backstory: Clyde was born to a cobbler and his wife in Kupa Keep. However, his mother died when he was little and his father blamed him for it and kicked him out of the house for it. Clyde grew up on the streets and had to steal to survive. He would also listen in to hear the latest news from the townsfolk as they went about their daily lives and as such heard all about the growing tensions between Kupa Keep and the wood elf tribe of Larnion who lived in the High Forest not too far from the Greypeak Mountains where Kupa Keep was located. He heard that the latest meeting between Grand Witch Liane Cartman and Larnion's ruling couple: Sylvan Lord Gerald and Verdant Lady Sheila Broflovski ended abruptly when their sons, Wizard Prince Eric and Sylvan Inheritor Kyle got into a scuffle. Not too long after, war finally broke out between the two factions and the first battle ended not just with Kupa Keep's defeat but with the deaths of Liane, Gerald and Sheila, leaving Eric and Kyle respectively to take their places. Afterwards he noticed the toll the fighting and the new Grand Wizard's life of excess was taking on the townspeople and Clyde felt he had to do something. Desperate, he sought out a pact with a pit fiend named Iorworth to gain the power to do so. With his newfound power, Clyde set out to find others in order to save Kupa Keep from its own ruler.

Notes: Originally I was going to make him a fighter, but given that his evil overlord look in SOT featured him messing with forces he couldn’t understand and because I felt I could make things more interesting if I made him something different, I picked warlock. Given that warlocks use Charisma as their primary stat and Clyde was able to rally a bunch of people under his leadership contributed to this version as well.

Craig Tucker Race: Human (Damaran) Class: Rogue Class Specialty: Assassin Archetype Alignment: True Netural Backstory: Craig was born in Kupa Keep to a poorer family. In spite of everything, his parents struggled to make sure he and his younger sister Tricia had their needs taken care of. In order to help them out, Craig took up being a spy for the royal family, specifically as a personal assassin for Wizard Prince Eric Cartman. Here he learned everything he needed to know about infiltration and assassination. Everything he made from his missions went back to his family. However, the more missions he took for them, the more he began to question why Eric had him constantly gather information about the wood elf tribe of Larnion, and give reports on the last known location of the Marshwalker tribe. After an incident involving a barbarian named Tweek that happened on a recon mission in the High Forest and war had broken out between Kupa Keep and Larnion, Eric was crowned as Grand Wizard, which was the final straw for him. Craig left to find others to help get the sociopathic Eric off the throne before more people get hurt. He also hoped to find Tweek and repay him for saving his life, or so he says.

Notes: Backstory-wise, Craig was probably one of the harder characters to figure out, but I think I found something that works. Also he’s True Neutral because Craig seems like the type that while he does care about the people he’s close to and wants to help them, for the most part he just wants to mind his own business and go about things his own way.

Tweek Tweak Race: Human (Illuskan) Class: Barbarian Class Specialty: Path of the Storm Herald Alignment: Chaotic Good Backstory: Tweek was born on the plains on the outskirts of Kupa Keep. His parents didn't pay much attention to him, instead preferring to focus on their shady business dealings and often dismissed his concerns and anxiety as him just being a spaz. Nevertheless, whenever a storm happened near their homestead, Tweek could swear he could feel its raw power coursing through his body. One day, a couple days after his 16th birthday, a group of bandits attacked the homestead and for the first time, Tweek let his anger take complete of him and completely wiped out the bandits. Instead of thanking him for saving their lives, his parents called him a freak and threw Tweek out. Tweek quickly learned to live off the land by himself and had a quiet life for the next few years, while learning to control the power his rage gave him. One day, Tweek noticed a young man about his age had set up camp on the on the outskirts of the High Forest. Sure enough, after he fell asleep, another group of bandits attempted to ambush him and take his things. Not caring how he would react if he woke up, Tweek let his rage take control once again and took out the bandits. The man woke up in the middle of the fighting but waited until Tweek was finished. The main introduced himself as Craig and thanked him for saving him. The two talked for a while before Craig had to leave to report to the royal family of Kupa Keep. Little did they both know that their paths would cross again when war between Kupa Keep and Larnion, a tribe of wood elves broke out.

Notes: Initially I was divided on which specialty to give Tweek. At first, I considered the Path of the Ancestral Guardian, as that gave an ability that could let you have premonitions and whatnot, but the fluff for that path states that it’s used for barbarians from cultures that practice ancestor worship, so I couldn’t think of a way to justify that. Path of the Storm Herald worked out much more nicely than I thought it would since it gives you both ice and lightning abilities. So this Tweek ended up being a hybrid of Wonder Tweek and Barbarian Tweek from SOT, heh.

Token Black Race: Human (Turami) Class: Cleric Class Specialty: Life Domain Alignment: Neutral Good Backstory: Token was born to a wealthy family in Kupa Keep, yet despite their riches they never spoiled him. As he grew up though, Token felt called to another purpose. When he turned 16 he told his parents he wanted to become a cleric and serve the people that way. His parents were surprised at his decision and let him go. He went to the nearby temple of Lathander, the god of dawn and renewal to begin his training. Not long after he completed his training, he was sent by the head cleric to assist the royal family and their servants. Reluctantly, Token obliged and moved into Kupa Castle, the center of the city. There he met Grand Witch Liane Cartman, her blood son Wizard Prince Eric and her adopted daughter, Witch Princess Kenny McCormick, as well as all the servants and other staff, including the spy Craig Tucker and the paladin Butters Stotch. While the Grand Witch and Kenny were nice to him, Eric would constantly belittle him for being a Turami rather than an Illuskan like the rest of the humans in the city. Token usually brushed it off and would also spend his free time talking to both Craig and Butters, where the two of them would share their concerns about the prince's growing sociopathy. It wasn't much long after that war broke out between Kupa Keep and the wood elf tribe of Larnion in the High Forest. When now Grand Wizard Eric vowed to destroy Larnion and Sylvan Lord Kyle even if it brought Kupa Keep to ruin, Token and Butters (Craig was elsewhere for his own reasons) decided to leave and find others to save Kupa Keep from its leader.

Notes: Token in SOT states he’s a healer, but since there isn’t a healer class in 5e, I decided the next best thing was to make him a cleric (a class with the best healing abilities already) and have him specialize in healing. Of course given that in two of the four themes in Phone Destroyer has Token as some sort of spiritual leader (Shaman Token in the Adventure theme and Witch Doctor Token in the Mystical theme) makes this work too.

Jimmy Valmer Race: Moon Elf Class: Bard Class Specialty: College of Lore Alignment: Neutral Good Backstory: Jimmy was born to a nomadic couple in the High Forest. His parents told him stories of the distant lands they visited and taught him the bardic arts. As he grew up, he traveled with his parents to distant lands, telling jokes and stories and making music. One day, after Jimmy had left his parents and turned 225, he stopped in Larnion village as he had been hired to perform in celebration of the birth of Sylvan Lord Gerald and Verdant Lady Sheila Broflovski's son, Sylvan Inheritor Kyle. After hearing about the tension between both the Larnion tribe and the human settlement of Kupa Keep in the Greypeak Mountains, Jimmy decided to stay, feeling he could lend his talents to help them in battle, in diplomacy, or just to help the people relax a little. As the Sylvan Inheritor grew up, Kyle took a liking to Jimmy who occasionally helped watch him when his parents were busy with official business and when Stan’s adoptive mother Sariel (who would usually watch him otherwise) was busy with other things. He also encouraged the close relationship between Kyle and Stan Marshwalker, a human who was taken in by the tribe after his own were mysteriously wiped out. Sometime after Kyle's 25th birthday, war finally broke out between Larnion and Kupa Keep, and among the first casualties were Kyle's parents, leaving Kyle to take over. It was that day Jimmy decided to devote his time to acting as Kyle's advisor, seeing as how Kyle was still a kid and needed all the help he could get.

Note: I should mention that this Jimmy is significantly older than the rest of the cast. While the rest of the cast here are in their early 20s, Jimmy is 250 years old. Really not much else to say here other than given what Jimmy’s abilities in SOT were, as are the abilities of all his cards in Phone Destroyer, that giving him the College of Lore which specializes in spell casting and ability support was obvious.

Let me know what you guys think.
