IK nobody asked buuuuut I'll talk about it anyways.
I somewhat fall into the category of prefering fem iterations of the dol characters. I say somewhat bc, Yeah I like women but thats not the main reason.
DoL HEAVILY relies on tropes and well known character archetypes when it comes to it's NPCs.
A lot of them are ol' reliables and (at least to me) feel very worn out when in their cis male version. Which is why I often gravitate to the version that feels more "fresh" or subversive to me.
For Example: I love my fem Sydney but her particular character trope (corruption of the "pure" religious character) feels a bit more interesting (to me) when its M!Sydney.
Although I will admit that another reason I tend to favor the female versions is that most dol fandom depictions (that I have seen) already have a strong bias towards the male version of these characters. The ground there is plenty covered already and I don't think I can bring much new to the table there.
I don't think most people will care about my particular opinions/List on this , so I'll put it under a cut haha.
Tbf I like to let the game do it's own thing to see what it cooks up in the npcs body, sex and gender department but I do have a few characters that I consistently change like Avery.
Cis M!Avery is just suuuch a tired trope to me (probably bc it's not that uncommon in real life either?) Another man with anger issues who exclusively dates (according to canon aka Vrel) only 18 to 20 year olds? YAWN. idk I could just go look at Leonardo DiCaprios dating chart if I wanted to see that. Obviously, if it does something for you, go right ahead. I'll leave you to your feast, it's just not for me. I need Avery to be a very smarmy, maladjusted butch woman.
Okokok I'll get to the list now (for the characters that I have developed strong opinions about anyways) and I'll go into, what my current/canon run is set to as well as what I prefer depending on what I find more interesting. (with some notes if I have thoughts on the character) uhhhhh Ig I'll do it in Alphabetical order?
Avery: Preferred: F! Avery Current Run: F! Avery (note: I think I went in and manually changed it) - (Nothing more to say really, I already mentioned my reasons. Plus M!Avery just makes me feel icky)
Alex: Preferred: No preference Current Run: M! Alex
Bailey: Preferred: somewhat neutral but leaning towards F! Bailey Current Run: F! Bailey - (Bailey once again seems to have a lot of M! fanworks already and I like the idea of her being either futch or butch. Bailey just strikes me as someone who'd wear a lot of boring suits. Very nondescript/practical)
Eden: Preferred: F! Eden Current Run: F! Eden - (Eden is a case where I really wanted to live my Huntress dbd fantasies out with her but was open to the option of M!Eden. Until I ran into him in my first run and I really didn't like it very much. I prefer her as a hulking hermit woman atp also sad toxic yuri between Eden and Bailey <3)
Harper: Preferred: No preference Current Run: F! Harper - (Harper lowkey gives me Moira Overwatch vibes (mainly bc of my design lmao) so I have a soft spot for fem!Harper)
Kylar: Preferred: No preference Current Run: F! Kylar - (I do think same sex PC and Kylar is hilarious considering Kylar is so fixated on getting you pregnant, so in this case: ig whatevers funnier <3)
Remy: Preferred: F!Remy kinda Current Run: F! Remy - (I'm actually kind neutral on Remy's sex and gender but I do think its somehow funnier when it's F!Remy. Like whats going on there that she wants to give other women humongus tits and milk them?)
Robin: Preferred: No preference Current Run: M! Robin - (Robin is cute either way!)
Sydney: Preferred: No preference Current Run: F! Sydney - ( I have no real preference for Sydney and I already mentioned my thoughts on them)
Whitney: Preferred: F! Whitney Current Run: M! Whitney - (I've seen this trope so many times with hyperagressive dudes. It's not doing much for me. To see that kind of behavior with a fem character instead really revitalizes my interest in It! M!Whitney is fine and hes kinda grown on me but I think I'd have more fun with Whitney if they were femme instead)

heyo, thought it'd be important to address because i recently hit 100+ followers.
but there's an account (spacedreamboy) blatantly posting ai art in the dol fanart tags, and they've recently deleted old posts of their inconsistent ai art to appear that they have created these artworks themselves. they have not. their 'art' is ai.
(exposé utc, old deleted posts, inconsistencies in artwork below)
i'm really happy that i screenshotted these posts when i did, because i had an itching feeling that they would delete their old inconsistent posts that did not have a consistent, repetitive artstyle (thankfully, consistency within art is something ai cannot recreate, which makes it easily identifiable).
while i cannot say what ai art program has been used (most likely an image-prompt generator ai bot; something like Dall-e or the character ai image generating bots) i want to let you all know why this is problematic.
- to create artworks like the 'fanart' above, ai programs steal digital artist's work.
- spacedreamboy is openly putting these works in character fanart tags rather than ai art tags
- they are (unintentionally or intentionally) fooling people in the dol community that they have created these artworks when they have not.
here are some weird things within one of their deleted 'artworks' that are common within ai art generation.
- random coins everywhere
- weirdly long cigarette (that looks like a blend of cigar and a cigarette)
- cigarette smoke trail that blows in weird directions.
- the fountain (if you look closely) is warped and the water in it is just... weird to look at.
- the tattoo on whitney's chest isn't really of anything. it's a blend of random popular bad-boy tattoos into one amalgamation.
- in general, just look closely at the art and you will notice the faults within it that an actual artist with this level of skill would not have.
i really hate ai art. i think it takes away from actual, hardworking artists within online communities. @spacedreamboy do better.
if your art isn't ai, i'll happily apologise publicly if you post a speedpaint or some traditional art of yours.
#degrees of lewdity#dol#ai art is disgusting. i will forever hold this opinion.#it takes away from actual hardworking artists and writers.#kylar the loner#alex the farmhand#whitney the bully#sydney the faithful#sydney the fallen

I know that you dislike the temple but Iâm imagining a nun/monk angry that Sydneyâs snores are so loud. Before they can yell at Sydney, another nun/monk pulls them aside. Sydney already doesnât get enough sleep; thereâs no reason to make them self conscious about what sleep they do get.
Iâm glad my hatred of the Temple transcends my posts, I am their biggest hater
But I do like this idea! Iâd like to imaging the Temple is semi aware of how hard Sydney works, because theyâre the next Jesus Christ in waiting, leading to them giving Sydney some grace (hehe). They probably do generally care about them in some way, even if that care/love is conditional and only if they abide by the Temple rules đ

I want Whit to be JD because he's my fav#listen AUs are made by people and people are inherently flawed#whitney the bully? more like whitney the bullied#Bailey is Heather Chandler#Eden? not sure- I was thinking Heather McNamara maybe?? i dunno#Harper is Heather Duke#Ram and Kurt are Wren and Landry#Robin is Martha- it fits well imi#imo#Leighton as Ms. Fleming would be so ironic and funny ngl#or do I put Harper as Ms. Fleming?? aaarghggggsgsvs i Don't KNOW#DoL x Heathers#degrees of lewdity crossover#heathers crossover#heathers musical crossover#I can't wait to post art and be ruthlessly critizied about the Kylar JD thing#it's my own fucking blog I make my own fucking rukes :)

I'm considering doing a lil mock up (as in packaging design) for the cigarettes Dee smokes. Ive already kinda settled on a name and it might be fun!! ....I'll put it on the pile..
#Ive kinda settled on the brand name being Desdemona*. I dont know that much about cigarettes but theyd have different versions by color ofc#Desdemonas are easy to spot bc their filters are colorful instead of the standard brown#Dee smokes the cheapest version. They're the yellow ones#*Desdemona used to be a name I considered for Dee once upon a time. âDeeâ is actually a shortened version of her first name.#She prefers it that way. Their full first-name sounds a bit too soft in their opinion and atp everyone only knows her by Dee anyways#dol rambles#dee the defiant

hmm how about a throwback - Felix/Mildmay
answering one more and then taking a break for a bit - always love to see it, good throwback and I'm gonna say yes, particularly if we include a loose definition of "shipping" but also. if we don't
What made you ship it?
Sarah Monette made me ship it when she wrote a pair of codependent brothers damaged by trauma with a deeply dysfunctional relationship who still love each other very much, and also one of them is attracted to the other one, but possibly that's at least partly because of the relationship in his head between sex and love as inseparable from each other.
It's all her fault. I take no responsibility.
What are your favorite things about the ship?
I mean... [gestures above]. But if I have to go beyond that, I think it's probably the way that their relationship grows and develops over the course of the series in a way I feel like I seldom get to see the full arc of, particularly not played out so messily and unevenly. Things get better and worse and better and then a lot worse, and by the time I hit the end of Corambis the catharsis was very real.
But also the ways in which Felix is very mean to Mildmay as an extremely ugly expression of trauma are a lot of fun to me. And the way that Mildmay reenacts his issues with Keeper with Felix are also pretty great.
Is there an unpopular opinion you have on your ship?
I know that if they actually fucked it would be catastrophically bad for their relationship and also undermine a lot of the ultimate development that happens at the end of the series but also a part of me is still like. They should've fucked. Just a little.
#conversating#fatalism and villainy#incest cw#doctrine of labyrinths#i guess??#ship opinions meme#thank you for asking! love to talk about dol#and get possessed again by the 'i should reread' devil

Will you draw Eden?
Hi! Yes I definitely will! Iâm currently working on the teachers.. but Eden will probably be in the one afterwards, worst case the one after that đ
But itâs actually perfect you asked, because on topic of Eden, do yâall have a preference on their gender? I personally switch between male and female in my saves so Iâm on a crossroads with them đ©
#for pretty much every other npc I have a preference on their gender but Eden is just good as both in my head#so peoples thoughts/opinions are definitely appreciated!#thank you for the ask as well! đ#dol eden#dol#degrees of lewdity

Tolkien: "I think you misunderstand Faramir."
I think you misunderstand Faramir. He was daunted by his father: not only in the ordinary way of a family with a stern proud father of great force of character, but as a NĂșmenĂłrean before the chief of the one surviving NĂșmenĂłrean state. He was motherless and sisterless (Eowyn was also motherless), and had a 'bossy' brother. He had been accustomed to giving way and not giving his own opinions air, while retaining a power of command among men, such as a man may obtain who is evidently personally courageous and decisive, but also modest, fair-minded and scrupulously just, and very merciful.
I think he understood Eowyn very well. Also to be Prince of Ithilien, the greatest noble after Dol Amroth in the revived NĂșmenĂłrean state of Gondor, soon to be of imperial power and prestige, was not a 'market-garden job' as you term it. Until much had been done by the restored King, the P. of Ithilien would be the resident march-warden of Gondor, in its main eastward outpost - and also would have many duties in rehabilitating the lost the dreadful vale of Minas Ithil (Morgul).
I did not, naturally, go into territory, and clearing it of outlaws and orc-remnants, not to speak of details about the way in which Aragorn, as King of Gondor, would govern the realm. But it was made clear that there was much fighting, and in the earlier years of A.'s reign expeditions against enemies in the East. The chief commanders, under the King, would be Faramir and Imrahil; and one of these would normally remain a military commander at home in the King's absence.
A NĂșmenĂłrean King was monarch, with the power of unquestioned decision in debate; but he governed the realm with the frame of ancient law, of which he was administrator (and interpreter) but not the maker. In all debatable matters of importance domestic, or external, however, even Denethor had a Council, and a least listened to what the Lords of the Fiefs and the Captains of the Forces had to say. Aragorn re-established the Great Council of Gondor, and in that Faramir, who remained by inheritance the Steward (or representative of the King during his absence abroad, or sickness, or between his death and the accession of his heir) would [be] the chief counsellor.
from The Letters of JRR Tolkien, edited by Humphrey Carpenter, letter no. 244, a draft to a critical reader
