Have You Seen these Dope Artists? They Designed My Rockin’ Book Cover

Have You Seen these Dope Artists? They Designed My Rockin’ Book Cover

One of the reasons I went indie with my debut novel, The Apollo Illusion, was creative control—not just of my story, but of the cover art and presentation.

I had two artists in mind who I wanted working on my book’s look, because these guys are seriously awesome AF.

Cover Art: Rebecca Lopatin

Yes, we have the same last name, because yes, Rebecca is my sister. But she’s also a professional,…

The Embassy was a staple of Ring of Honor in its formative years, including members such as Alex Shelley, Abyss, Daizee Haze, Joey Ryan, Tommaso Ciampa, Mia Yim, and a host of others. While the faces changed, the two names most associated with the Embassy are its founder Prince Nana and it’s “Crown Jewel” Jimmy Rave. Nana would often claim the Embassy is “forever”, and that mantra plays true as Nana, Rave, and former ROH Tag Team Champion and Embassy step stool Sal Rinauro are the fourth team entered into this year’s King of Trios tournament! This will be Rinauro’s first CHIKARA appearance in a decade, last seen in October 2009 failing to capture the NWA Jr. Heavyweight Championship from Mike Quackenbush. Rave was a last minute addition to La Lotería Letal this past October, and Nana will be making his CHIKARA debut. The Embassy may be forever, but will they be Kings come October?

King of Trios 2019 - October 4-6, 2019 - Reading, PA

1. Scott Steiner, Petey Williams & Jordynne Grace

2. The Four Nations (Mick Moretti, Adam Hoffman & Jack Bonza)

3. The Carnies (Nick Iggy, Kerry Awful & Tripp Cassidy)

4. The Embassy (Prince Nana, Jimmy Rave & Sal Rinauro)

Results for Cibernetico - 7 Man Army under the cut.

Match #1: Singles Contest Tony Deppen (2 points) vs. Ophidian (2 points) Funny enough, the Whisper joined Mike Quackenbush on commentary for this match. Deppen is turning more and more into Chuck Taylor as the days go on. Now he’s threatening children. Soon he’ll be wanting hugs. Anyway, fairly hot opener, with Ophidian pulling out a backslide with a bridge to win. According to Quack on commentary, this was called the Snake Trap. Post-match, Ophidian seems to indicate that he’ll be cashing in his points next month. Hey, Moretti’s sitting on them again, so why not? WINNER: Ophidian (3 points), Tony Deppen is out of the standings Match #2: Tag Contest Lucas Calhoun and Axel Ford vs. Hermit Crab and Cajun Crawdad (1 point) The debuting Ford surprised everyone with his wrestling knowledge (maybe MAM got some of that too?), but was soon worn down by the crustaceans and seeking to tag his partner, which Crab and Crawdad did their best to prevent. Eventually, Calhoun and Ford were able to turn that figurative tide on their more experienced opponents, halting Low Tide and finishing off Crawdad with a Samoan drop. Post-match, Oceanea appeared on the vid-screen, warning her subjects that there would be consequences if they kept losing. Of course there should be consequences for that, they’re embarrassing her further with each loss. The Queen of the Deep should not tolerate failure. WINNERS: Lucas Calhoun and Axel Ford (1 point), Hermit Crab and Cajun Crawdad are out of the standings Match #3: Singles Contest Razerhawk vs. Travis Huckabee Solo Darling, more than likely scouting her opponent for next month, joined the announce table here. Huckabee dominated almost the entire match, though Razer mounted a comeback midway through. Unfortunately for Razer, he battled an additional opponent during the match: his own leg, which kept giving out on him. Once he saw this, Huckabee smartly chose to target Razer’s leg, eventually neutralizing him completely. This led to a piledriver and a rather nonchalant cover, getting Huckabee the win. WINNER: Travis Huckabee (1 point) Match #4: Trios Contest The Proteus Wheel vs. the Colony Both teams waste no time in brawling, with the Wheel quickly isolating each ant to take them out one by one. Referee Bryce Remsburg gets ignored by the Wheel, then seemingly gives up completely on trying to enforce any kind of rules in this match, letting the Wheel get away with all sorts of shenanigans right in front of him without any hint of repercussions. (Really now?) As a result, none of the Colony could catch a break, with each ant getting destroyed almost immediately upon re-entering the match. Green, seeing how this was going, decided to pull shenanigans of his own, making sure to even the odds by attacking the Wheel members on the apron before his opponent in the ring. Then Professor Nicodemus intervened to shove Green off the top rope while Bryce wasn’t looking. Amid more brawling, Nicodemus pulled the same stunt again on Fire...and ejected Nicodemus from the proceedings instead of enforcing what should’ve been a DQ ruling. (Still looking for upgrades, Bryce?) Finally, the Colony rebounded, subjecting each member of the Wheel to their own medicine, eventually finishing it off with an Ant Hill on Frantik for the win. WINNERS: The Colony INTERMISSION! Match #5: Cibernetico 2018 Team CHIKARA (Dasher Hatfield, Hallowicked, Icarus, the Proletariat Boar of Moldova, Juan Francisco de Coronado, Boomer Hatfield, and UltraMantis Black) vs. Team Beyond (Chris Dickinson, Brian Milonas, Cam Zagami, Ryan Galeone, John Silver, Alex Reynolds, and Nick Gage) Batting order for Team CHIKARA: Dasher, Boar, de Coronado, Mantis, Boomer, Wicked, Icarus Batting order for Team Beyond: Dickinson, Galeone, Milonas, Zagami, Reynolds, Silver, Gage While Boar and Milonas were facing off early on, de Coronado demanded and received the tag, then attempted to German suplex Milonas. Which just wasn’t going to happen. de Coronado couldn’t even get his arms around Milonas. Eventually things just break down into a straight 7 on 7 brawl. There are dives, there is craziness. When everything is settled, Boomer gets isolated in the ring and has to fend off Team Beyond’s entire batting order. When he finally makes it to his corner, Hallowicked refuses to tag in. Multiple times. Boomer pulls through enough to eliminate Zagami via a rollup... ELIMINATED: Cam Zagami (22 minutes) ...but then falls prey to Reynolds and Silver. ELIMINATED: Boomer Hatfield (23 minutes) Icarus outright refused to get in the ring with Gage, which he can’t be blamed for in light of recent events concerning Gage. Boar soon finished off Reynolds with a Gore. ELIMINATED: Alex Reynolds (26 minutes) Unfortunately, Boar would soon lose his tail to Gage and a pair of scissors, then fall prey to a powerbomb from Galeone. ELIMINATED: The Proletariat Boar of Moldova (31 minutes) Milonas, completing de Coronado’s humiliation from earlier in the match, destroys him with a second rope legdrop. ELIMINATED: Juan Francisco de Coronado (33 minutes) Dasher, realizing that his picks were fairly faulty in the end, gets the remainder of his team together outside for a huddle. It’s Hallowicked who puts his hand in the center first, and the four show solidarity...then take it to their opponents. Seeking out the heaviest guy in the contest, Hallowicked blasted Milonas with Never Wake Up, then he and Icarus utilized Night Falls to take him out of the proceedings. ELIMINATED: Brian Milonas (36 minutes) But then Gage re-entered the fray and put down Mantis with a chokebreaker. ELIMINATED: UltraMantis Black (37 minutes) Gage attempted to do the same on Dasher, but only hit a chokeslam instead, and appeared to be favoring his knee. Dasher soon hit the Jackhammer on Galeone, taking him out of the match. ELIMINATED: Ryan Galeone (40 minutes) Unfortunately for Icarus, his fears were soon realized as he did end up in the ring with Gage. Though he was able to drop Gage with the Shiranui, he chose to go for a Pedigree instead of getting the pin. This got reversed into the chokebreaker, which sealed his fate...and wrecked my Pick’Ems. ELIMINATED: Icarus (42 minutes) Seeing how things were progressing, Hallowicked went to the bag of dirty tricks to help his team, distracting Bryce before low blowing Gage and hitting Never Wake Up to further even the odds. ELIMINATED: Nick Gage (43 minutes) John Silver then proceeded to knock out Hallowicked with a punt kick. ELIMINATED: Hallowicked (44 minutes) Dasher, left alone 2-on-1, fought his hardest, hitting the Grand Slam off the second rope to take out Silver, leading to the third Captain-Captain clash in the history of the Cibernetico match. (The other times this has happened are in the 2004 and 2016 matches.) ELIMINATED: John Silver (48 minutes) Dasher and Dickinson threw down at the close of the match, each kicking out of each other’s finisher, but Team Beyond would prove victorious, as Dickinson finished off Dasher with two Pazuzu Bombs, the second of which drove Dasher into the bottom turnbuckle. ELIMINATED: Dasher Hatfield (52 minutes) SOLE SURVIVOR: Chris Dickinson WINNERS: Team Beyond

Shit some LARPers say!

Ok, this is a crazy thing that happened in @binturians LARP. It’s high fantasy, and the players are all members of the Binturian Party, a known crazy group of adventurers who live in a crazy magical country that no one else is stupid enough to live in. My character is Yael Quackenbush, a Monk who is a member of the Order of Kutcher Ashton (yes, really). She is mostly Lawful Good. And the other person in this story is Esilm Moonscale, played by my friend Ryan. He’s a half demon who was raised by snake people, so he’s definitely Chaotic Neutral at best. Our characters are close friends, but of course we have our dissagreements.

So, the party are knocked out and wake up to really weird stuff. Enemies who can’t usually talk are talking, telling us to die, we keep going in circles, see impossible stuff, and everyone we kill and search drops only Poison of Extra Murderness – not only does it kill the drinker, but it uses up one of their regeneration points, which we call Nirvanas. We are accumulating these extremely dangerous poisons and getting very worried.

Esilm: If anyone doesn’t want their poisons, I’ll take them!

Yael: Esilm, why do you want so much poison? It’s so dangerous, we should probably destroy them!

Esilm: Yael, you never want to let me have any fun.

Yael: Well, that’s because you almost die all the time from rushing into situations and doing stupid things!

Esilm: Well, you’re not my mom! I do what I want!

Yael: I just don’t want you to–

Esilm chose this moment to DUMP A SERVING OF THE POISON ON ME. (Skin-to-poison contact is also enough to kill.) Everything pauses as the others realize what he’s done. And then…

Yael: ESILM, HOW DARE YOU?! YOU’VE KILLED ME!!!

Esilm: Oh my god, Yael, I’m so sorry–

Then, the Reeve (dungeon master) comes up to me and pulls me into the next hallway, leaving everyone to scream at Esilm for me because they didn’t know what happened to me and for all intents and purposes it looked like I had taken a Nirvana death.

It turns out that I did not die. We were actually stuck in a dream, and poisoning ourselves was the only thing that could wake us up. Someone on the outside was trying to tell us that, but the wires got crossed so we didn’t realize it.

When the rest of the Party woke up, Esilm fervently apologized, so of course Yael forgave him and they hugged :)
