A great picture of @mrstheryancharlton getting it done with her Monomount complete the accessory rail. The Tier-One Monomount has been synonyms with supreme accuracy for more than a decade. Manufacturing techniques and tolerances unachievable by most ensure that our Monomount remains ahead of the game and offers a battle proven mount that you know you can rely on. • #girlswhoshoot #ladyshooter #praesidia #howarifles #highlandoutdoors #mdt #rifle #boltgun #nosler #brockandnorris #internationalbarrels #whenwinningmatters #plinking #precisionrifle #shooting #longrange #longrangeshooting #precisionshooting #targetshooting #ammo #monomount #sigsauer #tierone #tieroneeu #tieroneusa https://www.instagram.com/p/COk9mxbBnGz/?igshid=8frv2xtdava4

Dear Vector Prime, do the Torchbearers exist in any other cluster besides Primax?

Dear Terrific Torchbearer,

In one reality, the Torchbearers were an elite unit of Camien soldiers who found renown early on in the Great War under the command of Praesidia Major. Their massive frames led to a tradition of replacing the industrial equipment of their homeworld into weapons, and made them some of the very few Autobots capable of going toe-to-toe against the Decepticons. Whether they were crushing their enemies beneath sledgehammers or dousing them in molten steel, they were tough, well-disciplined and indefatigable. Though Praesidia fell, her subordinate Pyra took command—but Pyra Major’s hot-headed approach to leadership proved controversial with her subordinates.

When the Decepticons invaded Caminus itself, Pyra led her troops in a suicidal last stand and bought time so that civilians could reach the evacuation vessels—and although their sacrifice bought time for many refugees to make it to Cybertron, it also led to the end of the Torchbearers. Pyra's famous hammer was liberated during the subsequent planet-hopping campaign at the end of the war, and now stands in the Great War Museum on Caminus.

Bumblebee and Praesidia Magna from Transformers Annual. The colors are not final tho.

Did my best to capture the Torchbearers style and designs for Praesidia. Not sure if I succeeded but I hope you guys like her anyway :D

...isn’t Matriarch of Incaendium just Mistress of Flame in Latin?

Also Magrada’s design is wicked sick.

Calcelmo's Stone - in Latin

et sic vestris vaporosos nostros in hortos via data est, atque praesidia potestatis nostrae. multi sub rudentibus, gutture niveo regibus Morae vestri perierant, et, voluntatibus fractis, vos nos audivimus, et machinae misimus nostrae vestros contra hostis, ut vos eo subter duceremus. Duemerum modo per gratiam cultura superfuit vestra, modoque per quindecim et unum tonos vitae novae ortae sunt. gratias non cupimus, non enim credimus in eas. gratitudinem non cupimus, non enim credimus in eam. modo requirimus ut copulae nostrae signum sumatis, circum nos lapidum fructum. visione nubilante, tenebris appetentibus, ne metuite. misericordiam scite nostram modo et fulgorem caritatis, quae ossa vestra terrae ante solvit, et viam ultimam musicae aeternitatis novae aptat.

And so it was that your people were given passage to our steam gardens, and the protections of our power. Many of your people had perished under the roaring, snow-throated kings of Mora, and your wills were broken, and we heard you, and sent our machines against your enemies, to thereby take you under. Only by the grace of the Dwemer did your culture survive, and only by the fifteen-and-one tones did your new lives begin. We do not desire thanks, for we do not believe in it. We do not ask for gratitude, for we do not believe in it. We only request you partake of the symbol of our bond, the fruit of the stones around us. And as your vision clouds, as the darkness sets in, fear not. Know only our mercy and the radiance of our affection, which unbinds your bones to the earth before, and sets your final path to the music of your new eternity.

Some sketches/brainstorming for a Role Swap AU where Kipo’s the older, abandoned experimental subject, and a younger Hugo isn’t left behind.

Due to being 17-18 and various other AU reasons, Role Swap!Kipo (or “Futura”) has greater control over transforming her body and can even shift it into more intermediate stages, i.e. looking more like a normal sentient mute like Jamack, the Timbercats, etc.

(Her face reminds me more of a jackal than a jaguar at the moment, but I was honestly enjoying the jackal-esque look more. Also thought it made her look more distinct from her Mega/Full Mega forms, and I was also considering possible subtleties in shapeshifting mechanics. May try to change up her face later though.)

In this Role Swap AU, Project Kipo actually went through official channels and was approved by the DNA Burrow as an alternative to the ongoing failure of the mutagen trials with animal subjects. (Dr. Emilia was outvoted and outmaneuvered.)

More Role Swap AU sketches/brainstorming under the cut:

Song still ends up mutated due to side-effects of the pregnancy and still gets stuck as a Mega after a failed field test on the surface when Project Kipo is one year old. The fallout of that included effectively abandoning Project Kipo, though it didn’t reach the extreme of destroying the specimen. The experimental subject was kept around, generally confined to the labs in response to concerns held by the majority of the DNA Burrow over the high-profile failure and rampant fear it sparked. Emilia tried to find some practical application for the defunct project, over which she now had full control. Lio lost parental rights, and sometimes got approval for limited visits. (One serious escape attempt was made and ended in failure.)

So Kipo is Hugo’s older sister.

Some more detail on AU reasons for Kipo’s greater control over her jaguar shapeshifting and powers: Emilia tried to train her as a tool/weapon from a young age, Kipo was born mutated, Kipo eventually finds another way to balance her jaguar and human sides, BUT she does have an anchor--it’s Hugo. Eventually the thought of him is enough for her to maintain control.

After begging and doing well with academic tutors, a 12-year-old Kipo was allowed to assist with mutagen trials on the animals; she was motivated by something Emilia told her since she was little, that the trials could help cure Kipo of her mutation. Kipo instead ends up bonding with the young mandrill, especially when he does gain sentience. (The formula mutates Hugo faster, happening when he’s a few months old, when he’s smaller/size of a small child and before his facial markings grow in.) Outside of a strained relationship with Lio and a messy, manipulative, abusive situation with Emilia, Kipo has been very isolated. Hugo is someone else to add to her limited social circle, and the mandrill child has shown her the most affection, the simplest and warmest affection. Kipo goes to great lengths to hide she’s a part jaguar mute from Hugo because he is literally the only one in her life who doesn’t know about her mutation, and practically everyone fears her for it and it’s the root of so many of her problems. She even makes Lio promise not to tell Hugo.

When Kipo turns 13, various things lead to a veritable repeat of her mother, with her going completely Mega for the first time and losing all control in spite of Emilia’s brutal safeguards, and Kipo’s separated from Hugo and Lio.

Lio truly cannot find Kipo, but there are other unfortunate factors--an encounter with Mega!Role Swap!Kipo while carrying an unconscious and injured Hugo made Lio truly afraid of his daughter because she looked as lost as Song when she went Mega, she looked ready to devour them both and he realized how very much he could not bear that fate for Hugo. After everything, Lio’s rather colder in this AU, more cynical, but he realizes he’s truly grown to see Hugo as his youngest child, and he becomes so utterly afraid that Kipo’s jaguar side will end up killing Hugo. And Lio knows how much Kipo cares for Hugo, it would be too awful if she accidentally killed him while not in her right mind. And Lio remembers Song lost inside her Mega mutation, it looks like the same has happened to Kipo. Lio tries to take an extended search for her, and leaves Hugo behind with some *allies they made, but--well, Hugo still has the mutated pheromones, and Emilia eventually figures that out. Lio and co. rescue Hugo from Emilia, and Lio just--Lio just can’t leave Hugo alone like that again, he has to stay and protect him (especially since Emilia escaped again). And Lio remembers Song losing her self when she went Mega, he believes the same has happened to Kipo...

Even when Hugo grows older, Lio resists telling him the whole truth because he doesn’t want his youngest to even try looking for a Mega Jaguar mute for fear he’ll only get himself eaten by a Mega who’s lost all sense of her former self.

(*More on these allies in the AU later, but I think they can be guessed...)

For various AU reasons, Role Swap!Kipo travels way up north (San Praesidia) and falls in with a gang of big cats--lions, tigers, cheetahs, etc. She eventually becomes their leader when she gains better control over her powers and can overwhelm them with her great strength as a Mega. With Kipo commanding them, they eventually conquer their northern surroundings, and then start moving down to Las Vistas. The big cat gang is generally fashion forward and fixated on something like modernism, and they become even more inclined toward the future when Kipo/”Futura” takes over.

(Kipo decides on “Futura” due to reading up more on Song’s research after she returned once to the ruined DNA Burrow before she wound up in the north. Her mother’s references to Kipo as “the future of humanity” left an impression on her...)

By 17-18, Role Swap!Kipo appears visibly cheerful and very eccentric and enjoys trying on different outfits and music. While awkward and earnest in her initial attempts with others on the surface, after having a pivotal mental breakdown before she took control over the big cat gang, she’s now better at manipulating others with charm and chatter besides always having Mega force at her disposal. She dabbles in chemistry, but loathes astronomy. (She still made a replica of Hugo’s star blanket during one of her low moods, she only likes that stylized image of stars in relation to her brother.) Her hatred for Emilia is more clear and more intense now. She hates every human from the DNA Burrow. She pretty much loathes all humans. She hates Lio for the abandonment after she destroyed the burrow, but even more for what happened before and for helping mutate her in the first place and turning her into a living science experiment. She hates Song more than Lio, though she’s never properly met her--actually, because she’s never properly met her. 

(Completely off topic: Yes I got tired and just made all the Role Swap!Kipo sketches pink. XD But I also thought it was a little stylistically nice? Also felt Hugo needed more colors because of distinctive mandrill markings, not just ‘cause he’s my fav? I mean, I’m pretty sure there was more to it, but who knows what my gut really felt. XD)

Role Swap!Hugo is sweet, shy, earnest, awkward, and very anxious. He tries to hide his mutated pheromones, which Lio and allies they’ve made on the surface have told him to only use for emergencies, and to be mindful that it only works on primates, it won’t help him with everyone. He’s very fond of the dark-feathered flamingo twins he tamed enough and befriended enough to ride, and whom he named Evangeline and Katherine. He enjoys music, art, history, reading, and historical fashion...he still has a soft spot for kings and such, but definitely doesn’t think it would ever be for him just due to public speaking alone, and he also prefers to keep that between him and the memory of his sister, whom he still deeply misses and grieves.

Role Swap!Hugo loves Lio, but things can get strained between them due to trauma in their family history, lingering insecurities, heavy issues, like--as he gets older, Role Swap!Hugo knows Lio is refusing to tell him everything that happened in the DNA Burrow, and Hugo feels he’s old enough to know the truth, if him being too young was Lio’s only reason for secrecy. And...and Hugo’s old enough to try looking for Kipo, maybe she’s alive and missing; Hugo knows he was too young before, but he’s older now, why doesn’t father even want to try?... But Hugo guiltily reconsiders and worries it’s too much for Lio who was able to really search before, and Lio maybe just can’t deal with anymore heartache.

But Role Swap!Hugo wants to try...    

Role Swap!Kipo is very convinced she’s right. When she finally reunites with Hugo, she’s convinced she knows what’s best for her baby brother, and she thinks it’ll be better for Hugo if Lio were out of the picture because he was one of several scientists who experimented on both of them. That’s unforgivable, unavoidable. There’s no ignoring that. And making things worse, Lio still has too much control over Hugo--how can her poor brother ever be free of Lio if he’s still around? No, their dad should be out of the picture, just like Song.

(Hugo had dreamed of Kipo’s survival, but he had never imagined this.)

“We’ll land one kilometer away from their base. Unless they’re all deaf and blind they’ll know we’re coming, but at least it will be harder for them to blow up our shuttle if they’re in that mood.”

Captain Avril stood at the briefing screen in the shuttle bay. Before her were team 1 and team 3 plus two of the TR:s, standing at ease in a line. Haylen listened while watching the map on the screen.

Praesidium

Segmentum: Segmentum Pacificus

Sector: Terminus Princeps

System: Fertafas

Affiliation: Unbound Empire

Class: Lesser Fortress World

Praesidium is the home of the Praesidium Steel Bloods and acts as the battered bulwark which protects the Unbound Empire, and previously the local region.

The world was once said to have held the same beauty held by the Terran region of Albyon long before the ruin brought from technological misuse. For the fringe world, its beauty was lost at the hands of external threats who conquered the worlds instead of being from internal strife.

Remnants of this lost beauty is still carried in the hearts of the local population which utilises the limited artistic population to ensure its perpetuation.

Geography

The current lands of Praesidia are a battered and cracked world, with any mass of floral life subsisting within the borders of the eastern continent of Aeanryr. If not for the possibilities to import mass items of food stuffs, and the limited cultivation chambers within the confines of the Fortresses, there would likely be more

Fungal life however has dominated the Ddaearig lands. Orkoid hoards roam the region seeking to better empower themselves while salvaging what little they can from other clans. If not for being waterlocked, far more extensive actions would be needed to prevent this infestation to no require

Contrasting the other two landmasses, Dwyn Taearw is a dead land resembling an amalgamation of an asteroid and a mesa. It is a large region of limited life and trying terrain to those unprepared. While populations are kept to the coastlines it has become an ideal trial zone for physical trials of Praesidium recruits. The Yeomen officers particularly make extensive use of the region for survival training. 

Small islands do dot the remaining ocean but the extremely limited aquatic life makes them more used as areas for training in aquatic tactics rather than acting as a fishing port or center of trade.

Population Centers Classifications

Hamlet

A Hamlet’s closest comparison to the population zones of Imperial worlds would be those of larger villages or small cities. They are self sufficent and often have a close connection with the Keeps within proximity.

Beyond their use as inactive duty garrisons with Steel Blood formations pending reorganisation, reinforcement or otherwise awaiting external action, the regions hold no defencive or tactical advantage beyond their limited resource advantage to a holder. 

Keeps

The ‘hives’ of Praesidium, these are dense population regions with a powerful manufacturing core for local sustainability. It is extremely common for regiments to be assigned to Keeps to act as the specialist enforcers along side more local law enforcement. 

Keeps are often considered the superior to the Hives of other worlds, having a greater defensive potential beyond their extensive voidshields and mere bulk. 

Fortresses

Towering monoliths of architectural and industrial might, and perpetual reminders of the world’s ‘liberators’. Where the Keeps are self sustainable in times of peace, it is suspected that the Fortresses are able to remain self sufficient for up to a decade during a siege despite having only access to the surface and upper crust level constructions. 

Unlike the Keeps and Hamlets, who can reach double or triple digits when tallied together, there are only eight fortresses along the surface of Praesidium. All upper levels are swamped with constant motion and work of both civilian and military personnel.

Sancte Michael Archangele, defende nos in proelio; contra nequitiam et insidias diaboli esto praesidium. Imperet illi Deus, supplices deprecamur: tuque, Princeps militiae caelestis, Satanam aliosque spiritus malignos, qui ad perditionem animarum pervagantur in mundo, divina virtute, in infernum detrude. Amen

Memorare, O piissima Virgo Maria, non esse auditum a saeculo, quemquam ad tua currentem praesidia, tua implorantem auxilia, tua petentem suffragia, esse derelictum. Ego tali animatus confidentia, ad te, Virgo Virginum, Mater, curro ad te venio, coram te gemens peccator assisto. Noli, Mater Verbi, verba mea despicere; sed audi propitia et exaudi. Amen

I do not usually do this, but this is urgent.

Please, in your charity, pray for my family who is going through a very scary situation in Mexico at the moment.

You do not have to say a long prayer or anything, even tracing a simple cross across my request or a St. Michael prayer will do.

May the blessings of the Lord be upon you all, thank you!

During the early days with my third baby, I felt a special connection in my heart and soul with my LLL colleagues and with all the mothers whose breastfeeding wisdom has been passed along.

None of the mothers in my family or my husband’s had ever breastfed. They disapproved of my desire to do so, explaining that it was too exhausting and telling me stories of women who failed.

Official nameLegion of MaryOther name or acronymSenatus of Northern Philippines (SNP)Vision

The object of the Legion of Mary is the glory of God through the holiness of its members developed by prayer and active co-operation, under ecclesiastical guidance, in Mary’s and the Church’s work of crushing the head of the serpent and advancing the reign of Christ.

Mission

At the disposal of the bishop of the diocese and the parish priest, the Legion of Mary undertakes any and every form of social service and Catholic action which these authorities may deem suitable to the legionaries and useful for the welfare of the Church.

Year established1921year accredited w/ laiko(N.B. not stated)History

The Legion of Mary originated in Dublin, Ireland. The first meeting of the Legion was held on 7 September 1921. The Legion was introduced to the Philippines in 1940. Initial meeting of Filipino legionaries was held on 21 July 1940.

Organizational structure

SNP reports to the Concilium Legionis Mariae, the supreme governing authority of the Legion which is based in Dublin. The Senatus exercises authority over one regia (comprising Malolos Diocese), 31 comitia (eight from Metro Manila, 22 from provinces/adjacent areas, and one from Guam), six curiae (one junior curia and six provincial curiae) and 21 directly-attached praesidia.

Composition of membership

Active members: Those who attend weekly Legion meetings and perform apostolate work. Active members are tasked to observe the four standing instructions imposed on each one.

Auxiliary members: Those who are unable or unwilling to assume the duties of active membership, but who associate themselves with the Legion by undertaking a service of prayer in its name. Auxiliary members recite daily all the Legion prayers.

Main activities

Home to home visitation, visits to hospitals, jails and institutions, catechetical instruction and parish assistance.

Areas present

Except provinces comprising the Bicol region, the SNP covers Luzon and the islands of Palawan, Mindoro, and Guam. Other senatuses in Bicol, Cebu and Mindanao and regiae in Iloilo, Bohol, Davao and Dumaguete cover these areas.

The Vexillum Legionis is an adaptation of the standard of the Roman Legion. The eagle which surmounted the standard is replaced by the Dove, the emblem of the Holy Spirit. Beneath the Dove a cross-bar bears the inscription “Legio Mariae” (Legion of Mary). Intermediate between cross-bar and staff (and joined to the former by a rose and a lily) is an oval frame bearing a representation of the Immaculate Conception (the Miraculous Medal). The staff is set in a globe which, for use on a table, stands on a square base. The whole design conveys the idea that the world is to be conquered by the Holy Spirit acting through Mary and her children.
