Choose your own adventure! (Indra - Madara - Izuna - Shisui)

The most voted Uchiha moves forward, and the story will unfold based on your choice!!! (the survey is at the end of the text, together with its respective context).

Let's have some fun.

A shiver runs down her spine. She feels that look again, but she doesn't dare address it.

Face him.

An hour has passed since she chose that bar, and what was supposed to be a quiet Friday night slowly turned into a potential threat. (Y/N) just wanted to relax, forget the workday, enjoy her solitude.

Her plans seemed to be ruined.

Behind a glass of whiskey and propped up on a dirty table, a stranger keeps devouring her with his eyes.

It would be simpler for the stranger to approach, allow himself to be rejected, abandon once and for all the task of trying to conquer her.

But the man doesn't seem interested in any of that.

He stares at her with hungry eyes, an unsettling look, as though willing to take a bite out of her cheek and swallow her flesh. A sinister smile appears every time she turns, and a sharp canine makes uncomfortable appearances on his lower lip.

Could be mistaken for a starving animal if she looked long enough.

(Y/N) decides she's done with all that, getting up from her seat and heading for the exit. Time to go home, sleep off the alcohol (or ingest some more).

The stranger imitates her, deserting his tetric position and walking out after her, settling in at a safe distance so as not to be noticed.

Of course, she would not be a woman if she had left without keeping track of the man's movements, perpetually alert.

After a block of speeding without gaining distance, she turns and shouts menacingly, “Can I help you with something?”. A sharp blade gleams between her fingers, and she looks more than ready to use it if necessary.

The man smiles, showing that tetric predatory sneer, and replies: ….

Comic Review: Uncle Scrooge and the Infinity Dime

The Duck Comic Reading Club went mute this week, and since I kinda like talk about one comic per week, is time for the review of Infinity Dime.

I not going to go deep in the cover topic, since that has been discussed enough. And yeah, that cover shouldn't have been published. This is the first comic on this weekly reviews that I physically own, I have the Alex Ross cover, because, how could I not?

The story begins with a Christmas that never was. Donald and the boys were supposed to get together with Scrooge but couldn't make it. That turned Scrooge in a even bitter and angry old man.

This is a What if…? scenario, and I'm on board with that. I like those stories. My favorite is What If… The Punisher's Family had not been Killed in Central Park?

They cut down the phrase for Ducktales '17.

Scrooge loneliness and bitterness consumed him. He knew something was missing. That's when he got a crazy and vicious idea.

And now, this story is going into the multiversal route. Everything has to be like that now.

But, if is fun…

We see then a different Scrooge, who's sees in horror how the entire Bin is being stolen.

At first, he thought it was another Beagle Boys heist, but he eventually found out what we already knew. This is the work of….

I really like the design here. How the Scrooge Above All wears all the dime he had take from all the others Scrooges. Is kinda morbid and tetric in a way.

Scrooge receives the beating of a lifetime and has no other choice but retreat. He now seeks the help of Gyro.

Who looks way to happy.

The babies are there too, and they look adorable.

That freaking guidebook has a section to everything imaginable.

They said the thing.

They think the dime is a universal constant and that's how Scrooge Above All can travel to different universes. But turns out the dime wasn't the constant, it was Scrooge himself. Kinda like Harry Potter being a horrocrux.

Scrooge traveled the multiverse to get himself some help.

Is so funny to see kid Scrooge there.

The Scrooge army beat the hell out of the Beagle Boys. They had the upper hand, until the Scrooge Above All appeared and kicked all their asses.

But the Scrooge army had one more card up their sleeve.

Ok, that hyped me up.

A horde of rage-driving Donalds must be the most scary thing ever.

With the Donalds attacking, the Scrooges turn the things in their favor, retreat the dimes from Scrooge Above All, who lose his magic, and is defeated. Nice and quick.

All the Bins return to their respective Scrooge, and Scrooge Above All learns what was he really missing. His family.

Because, family is the greatest adventure of all.

By the way, is that Webby? It has to, who else would it be? Nice to see her.

It was no masterpiece, or a must-read comic, but I liked it. It was simple and fun. I don't need that much more to have a nice time.

The comic had one more story, Christmas on Bear Mountain. But that's a tale for another day.

Brute Force Adventure Writing?

I’ve found success lately by writing my 1D6 tables as 1D8 tables, then cutting the two least interesting options. Even if I write just one extra option and make a cut, it tends to make a stronger encounter table. A 1D4 table? Write five options, review and cut the most boring or repetitive one. Write lots, keep what’s best. Is this brute force adventure writing? Or like just, normal editing? I don’t know. I’m not a professional. But it works.

In one of my latest dungeon rooms, players can encounter a giant urn full of nanomachines. The Nanites can combine into several forms. I went for a 1D4 table in this case, wrote five options, then cut one.

Nanomachine Gestalts

1. Statuesque Humanoid: From a distance, the swarm appears human. Tall and graceful, gleaming with reflected light. Up close, the figure takes on an alien appearance, its proportions exaggerated, its face grotesque.

2. Kaleidoscopic Lattice: Arrays of Nanomachines chain together, rapidly filling the room with a complex matrix of crushing fractals. Passage through the area becomes increasingly dangerous.

3. Electric Amoeba: An amorphous shape, its iridescent volume warps and quivers in all directions. Appendages appear and disappear as it blindly probes the room. 

4. Monolithic Geometry: Cubes and other angular shapes form a mass of intersecting surfaces, reflecting the world around it. New structures erupt like animated pyrite, extending to unexplored passageways, while trailing offshoots reconstitute into the primary locus.

5. Simulacrum: The Nanomachines appear as a cloud of iridescent dust. Several are inhaled by a member of the adventure party, entering their bloodstream and brain. The remaining Nanites will fill the room, creating a space based on the adventurer’s memory, for all to see.

I ended up cutting #3 from the available options. It was too similar to option #4 in form and function. Plus I wanted to push the “machine” aspect in nanomachine. Really, #3 inspired me to write #4 – a classic blob monster, but more mechanical? Of course. Giving the encounter a more organic bent could have been interesting? But I thought the humanoid form in option #1 filled that niche well enough. Given every other option, #3 didn’t have a lot going for it. Overall, I think the table is stronger without it.

And I just want to say…

Why’s it gotta be so hot? I’m so unproductive in the summer. Any amount of heat seems to sap my motivation. So, a perfect time of year to wrap up a mega-dungeon. And yet, progress has been made. I just cracked 200 pages on my latest project, The Electric Triptych of the Tetric Necromancer. By the end of next month I should have all 12 (out of 12) areas laid out and edited. After that, I’ll want to draft an introduction, a timeline of events, a few adventure hooks and such, but the entire dungeon will be playable from start to finish. That’s something.

Stay cool, people.

I have the solution if the masters are inclined to believe Cregan. Lord Bolton and his maester can argue that the marriage was not consummated, because Cregan was already in love with the mother of his baby, so he took advantage of the war to meet her and there they conceived the baby. As he loves his wife very much, he legitimized the bastard as his son. Then, Lord Bolton could argue that the whole marriage with Aelys, the one that "was not consummated" and that Cregan legitimized the bastard, was Cregan's way to avenge himself and humiliate Aelys for having been forced to marry her, being in love with another woman. All this about loving the woman and humiliating Aelys would be a clear lie, but it sounds logical and the Maesterres would no longer have Cregan's word against Aelys where he would win over her. Now it would be Lord Bolton's word against Cregan's, the word of one man against another man, a balanced ground. Cregan would be at a disadvantage because the facts, though untrue, have logic and ring true even more so considering that Cregan legitimized his son, put his honor above respect for the wife he supposedly claims to love. It all seems like a terrifying and tetric routine of humiliation against Aelys.

so true! with Lord Bolton arguing for his daughter it would be believable to a large group of men who often don't believe women.

did you know there is a number called Grahams Number

its a number so inconceivably large that even annotating it is impossible. theres multiplication, then exponents, and then another operation beyond that called tetrarion, essentially exponents for exponents, then pentation, hexation, and so on. i dont know how they work. but they work to represent numbers of impossible size and theres a cool asf article about it https://waitbutwhy.com/2014/11/1000000-grahams-number.html

so if you ificate a number 64 times (hexa-tetricate?) the exponential number you get from it is so long when written out that you cant even comprehend it

it scares me

all that to say, i think youre thiiis₆₄ awesome

You heard it here first fellas im so ginormous math cant contain me B]

-Your palace is beautiful, but also....

-Tetrical?

-No! I mean, yes, but without light, the palace, this country... doesn't it scare you?

-I admit that yes, it is very sad, but now, a light is illuminating my life and I have fallen in love with it.

-And who is this light that I don't see?

-It's you.

A quick drawing for boring. AU history. Someday I will tell.

Maybe a significant dream idk

I have had this dream with certain frecuency, mostly when my head is empty and my bodie´s numb.

I was exploring a little train traveling across a such tetric and rainy forest filled with trees with no leaves.

The train had no lights, the moon were no visible so I couldn´t tell what was in there, I just know the train were falling in pieces, and the next cabien were more destroyed so the next, ´til there was no roof.

With a little more lighting, I can see my soroundings. Kids tables and chairs, pencils and scattered papers, laught and cries provenient from nowhere.

I turn my head, there was no even locomotor. I turn again, I was just standing on a plataform.

The naked branches started hiting me, they way became so close I haved to leave the plataform. So I was alone in a scary forest, alone as far I could see, my other sences knew I wasn´t alone.

Then I wake up :)

If I don't think I could use a word in a sentence, it goes in a notes document. I scroll through it sometimes. There's something there about understanding a vanished style, capturing what distinguishes it from a contemporary one, but I also enjoy archaisms and oddities for their own sake because I enjoy words for their own sake. "Perdure" doesn't mean quite the same thing as "endure", it gestures at different things and evokes a different context — more philosophical, less about sweating through adversity and more about pure continuation of being. Any use of "perdure" could probably be replaced with "endure", but not without some element of loss.

Why have synonyms at all? Having them, why not have more?

if the words are specifically archaic they usually mean the same thing as a modern word

I suppose this depends partly on where you draw the line between "archaic" and "specialized". Archaic words are often novel because people had different concerns and life-worlds and educational backgrounds in the past. I read Salammbo (1860s novel about Carthage) a while ago, and a lot of the odd words (not necessarily archaic, but often archaic) in that are names of things that I didn't know existed (bematist, karob, cothurni, ergastulum). I think these words would have been much more familiar to an educated (but not specialist) reader of the mid-19th century than to me, to say nothing of the ancients; but are they archaic? I don't know. There are people who eat karob and know about ergastula, but there are people who know what appetency is or when someone is tetric.

When people read books with a lot of archaic vocabulary, are they constantly looking up the words or do they just accept not knowing what the author is referring to? I hate both these experiences. I like learning new words if they're valuably specific or novel but if the words are specifically archaic they usually mean the same thing as a modern word so they don't feel conceptually expansive (this is also why I hate learning languages, but have enjoyed picking up German words that don't have an English equivalent, like "rundgang")

11.14. Wailing Chamber

Seated upon benches, 4D6 hunched automatons, dressed in black rags, sway and rattle, lamenting dramatically over the latest death of the Tetric Necromancer. The shrill wailing is unbearable, sapping all concentration.
