okay i found what i think is the most peculiar mystery in dragonspine so far
Or: khaenriah wasn't after the celestial nail or its powers, it was after STARSILVER.
tumblr i NEED to share this with you because it's blowing my mind. recently me and my friend were discussing this star shard you can find in a quest from 5.0 natlan.
this is a meteor according to the quest and context clues. it looked like iron, so we were trying to find out what kind of metal it most closely resembles, and then -


these are iron meteorites. i'm sure you can see the pattern matches almost perfectly. the patterns form due to cooling in the vacuum of space. you'll notice that the grass around the meteor in the original image is white. nowhere else, to my knowledge, in natlan is there white grass, which implies this is an effect of the star shard itself. and if this is related to the cold...
...you know what other material forms in the cold?
starsilver. the two looked similar, so we checked, and what do you know
(left: star shard [quest item], right: starsilver)
starsilver's description says it forms in very specific conditions like those found in dragonspine. what are the conditions of dragonspine? cold. extremely, extremely cold.
but if these two are the same material... you know what else that implies?
starsilver is extraterrestrial. and i think that point is compounded by the fact that albedo makes paint out of it. albedo. additionally, a high quality node of starsilver looks like this:
pink and blue-y. like glazed sand crystal, also formed due to meteorite impact in the chasm... but my main reason for bringing this up is because these two have a very particular color scheme - pink and blue, the colors of the primordial sea.
in the fontaine waters, the fontemer aberrants (the translucent versions of sea creatures that give you their abilities), which also share this color scheme, are described as 'xenochromatic'. taken literally, the word means 'alien colored'. this seems to be a reference to hp lovecraft's book, 'the color out of space', where strange water droplets found INSIDE A METEORITE, have a color that have never been seen by anyone before.
and albedo uses these to make paint. he uses alien rocks to make alien colors.
now, we've established that starsilver cannot be generated within dragonspine. until we come up with a reason why, there's no logical explanation for starsilver to exist in dragonspine. a foreign metal cannot be synthesized somewhere it has never been before, even assuming the conditions were right. dragonspine has, to our knowledge, never had any abyssal encounters or floods, so the introduction of otherworldly materials makes no sense. you can't create the real life equivalent of these meteorites on earth because the conditions are impossible to replicate. dragonspine cannot logically be that cold either because it still has flora native to its environment.
on that note,
we are often told that the celestial nail is the reason for dragonspine's disaster. but as stated, dragonspine has no history of abyssal floods, so using a nail there... doesn't it seem wasteful? unnecessary even? you might say it was because of their transgressions, but if that was the case, shouldn't us removing the nail fix the issue?
but all it did was remove one small snowstorm at the peak.
unless, that is what they want us to believe. they want us to believe that celestia did this. genshin is full of unreliable narrators. a meteorite crashing into the mountain would be no less of a leyline disaster than an abyss attack - which is what the nails are equipped to deal with. side note: i don't believe starsilver exists because of durin. durin's blood has the opposite trait of starsilver - it gives you warmth, while starsilver is facilitated by cold.
the strangest part about all this though, starsilver seems to be produced from the very depths of dragonspine. so if anything, the hypothetical meteor that gives rise to starsilver must be present at its very base. how did it get there? i have no idea.
anyway, let's say this is all correct. celestia didn't cause the leyline destruction, the meteor did. one final detail remains. khaenriah.
the final nail in the coffin, if you will, that leads me to believe starsilver and the star shard are the same, and that they're from outer space - is the famous ruin guard message.
For the nation, we can't forgo this skyborne power, but we failed.
what if this skyborne power is not from the celestial nail that fell...
but from starsilver? because if starsilver is an alien object, don't you think, as of perinheri, the empire most known for dealing with outer space entities, would want to harness the power of these meteorites?
[p.s.: and also, in the legend of the shattered halberd, they used an iron meteorite to make weapons. not farfetched for khaenriah.]

What Chip's current condition may possibly mean for both him and the crew (a theory of sorts)
Spoilers for ep. 109 and 110. Heed the warning.
Okay, so ever since ep. 109 came out I've been frantically reading about undead and what does it mean for your pc to be undead. I stayed silent about it, cause I wasn't sure if Nik could fix this, but now that ep. 110 is out I'd like to share some of the things I found, for folks like me, who do not know much abt DnD yet.
So, in a long list of features the undead have, most prominent problem is how hard it is to heal them. None of Jay's or Gillion's spells can heal Chip now, we'd need a spell that normally damages people, like necromancy spells, since they have a reverse efffect on the undead, and none of them has access to that currently. Not only that, once Chip's health reaches zero at this state, that's it. No death saves, no going unconscious or going down. That's it, which is why the moment he turned undead, Jay started spamming the temporary HP canon. So Chip doesn't lose any of his core health pool. If he did die in this state, from then on, only a spell called Wish (if I'm not mistaken a lvl 9 Sorcerer wish, so Gillion could do that if he cranked up three more levels in sorcery real quick) or True Ressurection could save him. But these two spells would also bring Chip back to life as a regular person, not the undead, so it would be cool to seek out someone who could do that for them at the most convenient time.
To balance it out, Chip is resistant to a shit ton of attack types, including poison, physical, necrotic and many other. To top it off with Chip's evasion skills, I'm giving him good chances to either minimalize or negate most damage in this form. And well, considering everything, he'd be wise to take every opportunity to do so, joke damage taking is no longer an option, I think. Also Gillion needs to be very careful with radiant damage around Chip, cause it's very effective on the undead. Chip getting hit by Gillion's strike may damage him greatly, and the two need to be very careful around each other from now on :(((
And the most interesting thing I found is the Undead Hunger variant. Some undead can just live on for centuries and be fine without a need to feed on something. But some, even the intelligent ones like Chip, may need a bit more than that, and given that very ominous intelligence check Grizzly made him roll at the end of the day, I'm thinking he's implementing the hunger rule on Chip. Lemme tell you a bit about it.
So Undead Hunger is a Variant Rule that DMs use on player characters that are undead sometimes. And that means that once in a while Chip would have to feed on some sort of specific type of morsel to satisfy his craving, or suffer the cosequences. There are two variants of undead that can make roll for this: Inescapable Craving or Diet Dependent. The player in that case rolls for willpower, which DMs usually make a wisdom or intelligence check. In our case Grizzly chose intelligence, and Chip passed with a 19. The DC for Inescapably Craving Undead is 25, but the DC for Diet Dependent Undead is 15. So from that I deduced that Chip would be a Diet Dependent Undead, since he passed the roll.
Hunger for the Undead is like addiction to the living. This means that unless Chip can resist it with a succesful roll, he may become more agressive, anxious, violent or even self-destructive the longer he is denied a preferred meal. If he can't eat, he'll have to roll for keeping himself at bay every three days. He doesn't have to roll if he eats.
So you may ask now: what happens if he fails one to many times? This is the interesting part. So if Chip fails his once per three days intelligence check, the DM will make him take ability damage. That means that one of his stats (wisdom, strength, dexterity etc.) will reduce by a whatever number Grizzly sees fit (Chip can get all the lost points back the moment he eats). In the guide I've read it says that wisdom is the most crucial ability score to lose, tho I'm unsure if the DM takes away only from wisdom or if he can take any of the stats, I may need to read more on that. But the thing is, the more rolls Chip fails, the more wisdom he may loose, and please note, Chip does not have much wisdom to begin with (but he does have high intelligence so thank the gods for that at least).
The less wisdom Chip has, the more desperate he gets when it comes to eating. He may start seeking out more risky ways to get fed or do things he normally wouldn't to get it. Hunger can't kill him though, it may just make him lose himself (hence that comment of Grizzly's about him needing to hold onto his sense of self, at least that's what I think that is). Once Chip reaches wisdom score 0, Bizzly actually loses control over him, and Grizzly takes over Chip and he plays Chip as he was a wild enemy beast. In that state Chip can throw himself on anyone or anything that can provide him food, his mind completely lost. He can hurt others, attack his crew. He can do anything the DM determines a starved mindless beast would do.
He can come back to his senses once more, when he does feed on whatever is decided his preferred meal is, all his wisdom regained and all, but the consequences of his actions, when he was not himself, the dreadful realisation that he is now a monster, who needs to be kept in check so he doesn't hurt the people he loves...This may be a lot for Chip to take. If this were to happen, he'll need a lot of his crewmates' support and reassurance, and a lot of honesty will be demanded from Chip. He'd have to warn people around him and make sure everyone knows how he's feeling, if he needs help in finding food. Casue hiding this hunger may result in tragedy.
And of course, it doesn't help that they are where they are now. In any case, if Grizz decides that Chip's favourite meal is humanoid flesh (beyond cruel is what that would be), they are fucked, basically. If it is the flesh of any other creature or animal, well they are also fucked, because they are in a motherfucking Black Sea, so good luck finding anything consumable like this either way.
But hey, of course do remeber that in the end these are just my conclusions based on what I read. Grizzly might not be even using any of these rules, cause he's the DM and he can do whatever he wants. I just thought that based on what we saw, this is very likely to happen (consider it a theory of mine for the time being). If you would like to read more about it, I'll leave you the link to this one really good website that I found most of the information on. I can't confirm its relaibility, but it looks very informative, comprehensive and thought out, and thus far was the most thorough source I found, so I'm personally willing to trust it. But please do find out for yourself. That'll be it, see you and I hope you had fun reading!
Link to the website: https://www.realmshelps.net/monsters/aboutundead.shtml#undeadhunger
UPDATE!!!!!!!!!!!
Tags written out by the wonderful @dinzeeyz !!! They explained here what is ACTUALLY happening to Chip, not a theory, facts from the boys themselves! Please make sure to read them!!!
Well, there it is folks! Of course, I do not mind that I was wrong! The fun part in theorizing is not being right or wrong, but the journey one takes to find out the truth! And the truth is SO much more horrifying than I could ever think! You see, I was kinda thinking abt ways for Chip to still function while undead, but there is NO FUNCTIONING WHATSOEVER APPARENTLY. Grizzly's not playing, and the prospect of losing Chip forever is real oh dear OMG, that's absolutely insane!!! Please feel welcome to discuss this, I'll be definitely making more posts about this once I have a little more time but holy shit guys. We need to fix that boy up F A S T. If we lose Chip, I'm not recovering-

Satan & Cats Vol 1-4

21-14
Satan: “…The cleanup is going to be a nightmare.”
The floor is now littered with books which all seem to be about cats
Satan: *blushing* “Hey, why are you looking at me like that?”
MC: “Have you been cheating on me? …With cats?”
Satan: “If looking at pictures of cats in books counts as cheating on you, then…I guess? Heheh, are you actually jealous of the cats?”
21-14
MC: “Do you like cats that much?”
Satan: “Well, I wouldn’t collect books about something unless I like it, obviously.”
27-16
Cat: *HISSSSSS*
Satan: “Come on, it’s okay. Come here. If you get all angry like that, you’ll end up opening up that wound and making it worse, you know?”
Cat: *growl*…
Asmodeus: “Is that Satan with…a cat?”
27-16
MC: “What’s going on, Satan?”
Satan: “…! …Nothing. I just happened to spot a cat over here, that’s all.”
27-16
MC: “What’re you doing here?”
Satan: “What, is there some problem with me being here? I just happened to spot a cat over here, that’s all.”
29-7
Satan: “Go ahead, see if you can seduce me.”
MC: “Meow?”
Satan: *blushing* “…! …You pass.”
35-14
Satan: “That’s not MC. That’s a cat. It’s a newborn kitten that can’t find its mother, I’m sure of it. And it’s crying out, desperate for help…”
35-19
Satan: “No, I didn’t imagine it. I definitely heard something. It was the sound of a cat meowing.”
35-19
Satan: “I mean, think about it! If a tiny kitten who’s just opened it’s eyes started meowing at you in a weak, fragile voice, hungry and trembling with fear… Would you be able to resist the urge to scoop it up in your arms? Hm?”
Lucifer: “The rule here is “Do not touch.””
Satan: “I take responsibility for my actions. And I regret nothing I did…nothing.”
35-16 Hard
Lucifer: “Satan, when it comes to anything having to do with cats, you’re incapable of thinking rationally. That’s a problem, and it needs to change.
Satan: “…I regret nothing. I just like to help cats in need. That’s all.”
Lucifer: “You may not have regrets, but you still need to consider the consequences of your actions. First of all, anytime you happen upon a cat, you immediately decide to bring it home with you, which…”
39-15
Satan: “Oh, right. I heard you’ve got this place in your world known as “Cat Island.” …In Japan, I think. Have you hear of it? Because I’d really like to go check it out sometime. With you, naturally.”
41-9
MC: “Cat documentaries.”
Satan: *blushing* “Wait, what? You have documentaries about cats in the human world…? Oh, I want to see these documentaries. No, I have to see them. Actually, let’s watch them right now.”
42-16 Hard
Satan: “I don’t believe it…”
Asmodeus: “Satan, do you recognize this thing?”
Satan: “I do. I’ve seen one of these on DevilTube. There was a cat riding on it.”
46-7
MC: *Put on the cat ears*
Lucifer: “The cat ears? How exactly are those supposed to help…”
Satan: *gasp*…!
Satan takes 222 damage.
Beelzebub: “The cat ears actually worked…”
Lucifer: “…Huh?”
Solomon: “Still, they barely did any damage at all. The Demon Lord Satan has 870,000 HP total.”
Lucifer: “Damn…! Someone get us a real cat, and fast!”
47-9
Satan: “I was planning to spend the day thinking up new cat video hashtags to search on Devilgram…”
47-17
Satan: “I also want to get home soon…so I can watch more cat videos… I can’t wait to watch my cat videos…”
47-19
Satan: “I’d like to head back soon, too. I want to watch cat videos on Devilgram. …So bad it’s killing me.”
47-19
Lucifer: “Uh oh, the TV screen… It’s showing video footage of cats now! Be strong, Satan! Don’t give in to them!”
Satan: “…!”
Leviathan: “Oh no, we’re really in trouble now! It’s a group of sleepy kittens…and they’re starting to doze off!” *gasp* “…look! They’re all nestled up against each other and are falling asleep…!”
Satan: “They’re… They’re so cute…”
48-12
Asmodeus: “What are you looking at, Satan? …What am I saying? As if I even need to ask. You’re watching cat videos, aren’t you?”
Satan: “I’ve never thought of searching the hashtag “FrolickingWithADuck” before. Wow, have I been missing out… And don’t you just love this one too, Asmo? “FriendsWithAHamster.””
48-A
Satan: “What I wouldn’t give to be able to watch a nice, soothing cat video right now…”
49-10
Satan: “And a Pretty Kitty special to go with that.”
Simeon: “…Wait. What did you just say? They want a Pretty Kitty Special…?”
Satan: “Yeah. It’s a new menu item I came up with. They’re pancakes in the shape of a cat’s paw. They’re soft, fluffy, and flavored with maple syrup. These are guaranteed to become the café’s signature dish.”
Simeon: “Ahaha… They really are cute…”
Mammon: “Man, he’s sure is crazy about cats.”
49-12
Luke: “Aha… Looks like we found Satan. Hmm, he’s staring at his tablet with a really serious look on his face. I wonder what he’s doing… Trying to understand the current economic conditions in the human world? Or studying a foreign language, maybe? Wow, he really is committed to the pursuit of knowledge…”
Mammon: “Nope, wrong. That’s the face he makes when he’s watchin’ cat videos.”
Luke: “Watching cat videos…?”
49-12
Satan: “As you can see, I’m busy.”
Mammon: “Busy?! You’re just sittin’ here watching cat videos!”
49-12
Luke: “…! Right! Right, exactly. Simeon’s totally obsessed with the cat cafes they have here in the human world! He’s now seriously considering turning the Angel’s Halo into a cat café as well…!”
Mammon: “For real?”
Luke: “Shhh! Quiet, Mammon! Which is why we’ve come to you. As a cat lover, we were really hoping you could advise Simeon… And you know…to do that, you’d need to understand how the business is run, right? And what better way than by working there part-time?!”
Satan: “Why didn’t you say that to begin with? In that case, I’m glad to help.”
49-12
MC: “You know, every day cats show up at the café…”
Satan: “Cats…?”
Luke: “…! Right! Right, exactly. Really, really cute cats…kittens, in fact!”
Satan: “Did you say kittens?”
Luke: “Mmhm. Three of them…actually, wait. Maybe it was five?”
Satan: “Five kittens…”
Luke: “They always show up as soon as they get hungry, and we feed them! Wow, they’re just adorable! They like to hang out in front of the café and play. When they wrestle, it’s like little balls of fur rolling around!”
Satan: “Let’s go. Now.”
Luke: “…Huh?”
Satan: “You said you needed someone to work at the café, right? I want to let Simeon know I’m interested before he gives someone else the job.”
49-12
Satan: “Looking forward to working with you.”
Simeon: “Likewise! I have to say, you’re a lifesaver. I feel much better knowing you’ll be here.”
Satan: “Okay, so…let’s talk cats.”
Simeon: “…Excuse me? Cats?”
51-4
???: *meooow*
Satan: “Just a second, all right? I’m on the phone. Calm down.”
???: *meooooow*
???: *mrooowr*
Satan: “Ow! …Hey, don’t climb onto my shoulder. Quit digging into me with your claws!”
???: *rrraaaar*
???: *hiss*
Satan: “Whoa, hey! Da Vinci…Michelangelo! No fighting!”
51-7
Satan: “You see, I was in the middle of testing out a new flavor to add to our drinks…That’s when the cats started going crazy…and long story short, I ended up wearing the flavoring instead of tasting it.”
Simeon: “You know, that wouldn’t have happened it you hadn’t let them into the café to begin with…”
Satan: “Well, can you blame me? They’re such an improvement. I mean, what’s a café without cats?”
Simeon: “Right. That’s my first point of confusion, actually. I have no idea what you’re talking about.”
Simeon: “Anyway, don’t blame me when Barbatos makes you pay for this later. He looked QUITE angry about being forced into filling in for you at the café.”
Satan: “I mean, he should be happy, right? He’s surrounded by cats, after all. Sounds great to me.”
52-19
Satan: “I do like cats, sure. But you know I don’t have a pet cat, right?”
52-A
Leviathan: “Well, apparently he was in charge of yesterday’s cleanup, which was a total nightmare. Something about there being cats everywhere? I don’t really know what the deal was.”
Lucifer: “So this was another one of Satan’s messes, then…”
52-C
Satan: “They’re gone! I don’t see them anywhere! Where’d they go?! My little Monet! Da Vinci! Munch! Rembrandt! Vermeer…!”
Barbatos: “Ah, looking for that group of cats with the fancy names? I returned them to the various witches and sorcerers that owned them. They’re back home now.”
Satan: “Wh…what…?!”
52-C
Solomon: “Satan, get ahold of yourself. This is no time to be standing there in a stupor because the cats are gone.”
Satan: “…Yeah…yeah, I know.”
52-16 Hard
Satan: “But I’m waiting on a little friend of mine, a cat, who’s going to show up outside on the terrace soon. They’re looking forward to some tasty kitty treats courtesy of Satan.”
52-16 Hard
Satan: “…MC. If a white cat shows up on the terrace outside, do you think you could feed them a few treats in my place?”
53-14
…a movie about three adorable cats who set off on a journey together starts playing…
Satan: *blushing* “Wh…! …It’s a black and white bicolor, a tortoiseshell, and a tabby… and they’re relaxing in the sun, all curled up against each other. That’s so…so cute!”
53-14
Satan: “Those cats are so cute…”
58-15
Lucifer: “My hobby is music, whereas you prefer reading, don’t you? And you love cats, but if I had to pick one or the other, I’d go with dogs.”
58-16 Hard
Lucifer: “…I just got a call from Barbatos. From what he says, Diavolo suddenly transformed into a cat just now.”
Leviathan: “C…come again…?!”
Belphegor: “You say Lord Diavolo…turned into a cat…?”
Leviathan: “Ooh…not that… That’s treading on the most sacred of sacred ground…”
Satan: “Okay, what type of cat did he turn into exactly? I’m curious to know the breed and color of its fur. Are there pictures?”
59-1
Satan: “I was trying to say it can ALSO be used as a vehicle for cats, even though it was designed to be a vacuum cleaner.”
Leviathan: “Oh no…uh-uh! That’s a lie, and you know it. You were totally convinced it was a thing cats ride on!”
59-4
Satan: “Crowe, play the theme song to “Another Purrrfect Day for Kitties in the Devildom.” At max volume, please.”
60-22
Satan: “…There are several cats who come by the manor for food each day. Make sure to take care of them for me. If you’re on the job, I feel like I can rest easy knowing they’ll be okay. But keep in touch. Let me know how the cats are doing every day. Got it? Every day.”
60-22
Satan: “…Anytime you want to give me a ring, do it. It doesn’t have to be about cats.”
63-9
Satan: “You told me to come, so here I am. But I don’t see any cat—“
Mammon: “MEOW!”
Satan: “…?!”
Mammon: “Meoooow!”
Satan: “What the…? What’s going on?”
63-9
Satan: “…He looks like Mammon, but he sounds like a cat…”
Mammon: “Meow meow meow!”
Satan: “…Come here, you. Who’s a good kitty, hm?”
Mammon: *hiss*!
Satan: “Aww, there’s no need to be frightened. Come here, it’s okay.”
Mammon: *HISSSSSS!*
Belphegor: “…I guess Satan just loves all cats no matter what?”
63-11
Belphegor: “Satan said he’s going to hang out with Mammon for a while. Apparently he enjoys watching cat-Mammon play with cat toys.”
64-A
Satan: “Because the truth is that I don’t want to be stuck here with cat-Mammon, either.”
Mammon: “Meow?!”
Satan: *blushing* “But every time he starts meowing at me, I feel this urge to keep playing with him. I can’t help myself.”
64-A
Mammon: “Meow meow meow meow meoow!”
Satan: “…!”
Mammon: *purr* “mrrooow.”
Satan: *blushing* “Gr…so cute. I know it’s Mammon, but he’s just too cute…!”
67-14
MC: “Cats, books, number four.”
Luke: “Cats, books, number four? That has to be Satan!”
67-17
Lucifer: “By the way, Satan…you forgot your “cat cookies” back at the house. You know, those cat treats you normally carry around with you everywhere. I grabbed them and brought them with me. Here.”
Satan: “Oh, thanks.”
68-19
The sorcerer MC commands you…Come forth, feline… Satan: “What the…?!”
Cat: “Meooow!”
Satan: *gasp* “You’re… YOU’RE SO CUTE! Come here, kitty! How’d you like some cat treats?”
70-15
MC: “A cat!”
Leviathan: “Can you summon a cat here, MC?”
MC: “The sorcerer MC commands you! Come forth, feline…
Cat: “Meooow.”
Satan: “…! What’s going on? Where’d you come from, little guy?”

(Full matchup list here)

Alright team, here's a recap: This is a contest to determine who amongst you will take the top of the leaderboards and be hired at TFI! Simply put, whoever gets the most votes gets to move on, and whoever doesn't... Well. They'll be put down swiftly and cleanly. :}
So, mann your stations, because here are your next contestants! Vote for your favorite mercenary who you want to win the TF2 OC Contest! - P
OC INFO UNDER THE CUT!
We highly encourage you to take a peek to make your decision!

Balloonimedic
@jolluxiscool
Image credit: @/jolluxiscool
Balloonimedic is a TF2FREAK (wowzers, right?) that came to be after a very bad discussion with xis heavy, resulting into xim becoming friends with the team's pyro, eventually picking up their behavior, their likings and quirks, even to the point of asking engineer to build a device that let xim spawn balloonicorns and lots of fun stuff! Until one day xe got lost and never saw xis team again, but that's another story.
Optimistic, unpredictable and eager to make a mess, Ballooni is the most fun person to be around, yet one you have to keep an eye on if you don't want everything to catch up on fire. Xe's a sucker for drawing and candy, and even if xes mute, xe loves to hang around with everyone xe sees! Unless its a heavy, theyre no fun.
Be SURE that this fella will charm your heart and light your soul, but please, DON'T GIVE XIM ACCESS TO FIRE!!
Ágatha, the Nurse
@arts-of-gjb
Image credit: @/arts-of-gjb
Ágatha is a young brazilian girl from Salvador, Bahia (Brazil). She is very friendly and energetic, but also have a deep taste for medical experiments and doesn't mind seing blood for the most of the time, traces that were noticed and encouraged by her uncle, Medic. He started to bring her once she made 10 so he could teach her all he know. Inside the battlefields, Ágatha asumes The Nurse title, The nurse class in unable to capture control points, move payloads, grab inteligences or even cause directly cause damadge to others players, because her only objectives as part of the team are:
To assist, by curing her team. different of Medic, the nurse does not have a medigun to that, so she fulfills this task by being able to grab the medikits (or other healing iten disponible on the ground) and then give them to your teamates
To anoy, by shooting small injections on the rivals. as said before, they wont make any damadge, however, they will "stop" the player for a few secconds (the same way that when you're hit by a christmas glove from heavy, but it should make a pain animation than a laught one, and would work if hit in any body part).
Once her hp reaches 0, the nurse would enter in a "sleeping mode", where you get unable to do anything. If no one does anything with you when youre like this for a couple of seconds, then you wake up with half of your total hp, but if someone from the opposite team pick you up and leave you to a specifc location, then you are teleported to your respaw base, where you get unable to go out for a minute (be grounded time >:I )
A vote for Ágatha is a vote for Red team, Medic, Brasil and nepotism!!!!!!!

is it possible to get SSS on cosmic basic without lvl 100 cards?
This ask was sent in prior to S5 and Extra, but my answer remains relatively the same since a lot of F2P players would still tackle Hard difficulty.
In the Hard difficulty, it's unlikely because you need a minimum damage of 108k dealt within 3 turns using 5 duos. Unless we get an extremely powerful card or a card with large atk up for 3 turns to power his duo (or someone else's duo), then don't hope. Furthermore, most Cosmic Basic tests have a max hp of around 80000~ ish, and the strongest overkillers (i.e. Boa Epel and Playful Kalim) deal a maximum of 27k, which is at Lv.110. That's not easy to obtain for many F2P players. At Lv.100, expect that damage to be around 24-25k max. That's great if the total HP of the test is gonna be like 85000-90000, but that's also assuming your other duos would Bring the enemy HP to around 1k or less HP before the overkill. So you do want the rest of your cards to be really strong, ideally also around Lv.100.
In Extra difficulty, SSS (or S3 in JP) is pretty easy to obtain with even Lv.80-85 units, even if you end on turn 4. Admittedly, I haven't been keeping track of the damage required, but having 5 duos makes it an easy S3/SSS, even 4 duos can suffice. However, the equivalent to Hard difficulty SSS is Extra's S4, which is more manageable to obtain than Hard SSS in the sense that you can afford to have most of your team at Lv.80-85, as long as your strongest card is at max limit break + some friendship levels. You can also end on turn 4 and still get S4. However, having most of your team at Lv.90 above with 5 duos would be ideal for Cosmic Basic S4, so it's still not easy for many F2P players.

Theory: Ralsei is a Titan (or at least a Neo darkner)
Hey so. this theory and analysis has been long over due, I'm so sorry but I kept forgetting and getting sidetracked with school work.
Okay so many people have noticed how weird Ralsei is, he's honestly a whole can of worms on his own without considering every theory being made about him.
But I have had this particular theory in my for like almost a whole fucking year, so let me propose a weirder one: Ralsei is a titan.
What do I mean by that? Honestly, I kind of only half way know what that means, since this is more of crack theory but here are my points
We all know that Ralsei looks different between the first two chapters. But a few people have pointed out that Ralsei's transformation from chapter 1 to chapter 2 is rather strange, as the two look very different. Toby has said that Ralsei looking different was a recent choice made during development.
He first starts out as this black, fluffy figure in a ratty looking robe, with his hands mostly obscured, and a hat. but after he takes off the hat, he suddenly looks very different: white fur, and more boss monster like. in chapter 2 we see his robes are neater looking and his arms are visible with black sleeves.
I find this bizarre, because it's such a drastic change. Looking at his two forms side by side, it almost looks like two different characters. Like, taking off a hat should not change your form like that, even if it might be dark world logic.
Ralsei is also shown to disappear when he's downed in battles. Susie, Kris and Noelle all have sprites of them kneeling or collapsed on the ground when their hp reaches 0. But ralsei just... turns into a pile of his clothes, in both forms. Almost like he's made of nothing??
Ralsei also seems seems just show up in dark worlds without Kris or Susie bringing him there in his supposed object form. Other darkners like Rouxls and Lancer are physical objects (both of them are playing cards), and need to be carried in Kris' pocket to the Cyber World. Kris has to physically take all the objects from rooms and bring them back to the supply closet.
Since we still only have two chapters at the moment, what object Ralsei actually is in the light world is currently a mystery. Some say he could Kris' red horned headband (personal favourite of mine), or even the missing green crayon in the Dreemurr house.
I even theorised that he might be Kris' mysterious knife they always seem to have on them, which is why he's always in the dark world shortly after Kris and Susie arrive there. But we never see Kris' knife in their inventory anywhere, unless Kris is just. materialising the knife out of thin air???
This still doesn't change to fact that Ralsei, if he did have an light world object equivalent, would have to be carried around like every other darkner in order to travel to other dark worlds. But he doesn't. He just... shows up in Cyber World to help Susie and Kris without any explanation other than "I felt a dark presence."
Most interestingly, he later explains that darkners who don't belong in other dark worlds will turn to stone. All the Card Castle characters in the Cyber World turn to stone in chapter 2, but Ralsei doesn't. He does say that Castle Town's fountain is made of pure darkness, so that's why all darkners can live there.
Ralsei being Castle Town's ruler helps him in this case, and the fact that a piece of text in Toby's concepts for Ralsei's manual says that Ralsei's form is made from Castle Town's fountain. Makes sense that a being made from pure darkness would be able to live in every dark world. But here's another question I have.
WHY is Castle Town's fountain made of pure darkness? How did it get this way? Is it because the fountain has maybe been around longer, while others like Card Kingdom and Cyber World were created only recently? What makes a fountain pure darkness?
Well here we bring up some interesting lore from Queen in chapter 2. Queen says that she needs a lightner to help spread more darkness, by literally opening a dark fountain inside a dark world. In the Giga Queen fight, she calls it a Neo Fountain.
Berdly almost makes this a reality, only to be stopped by Ralsei, who suddenly drops the lore about the Roaring.
The Roaring is a prophecy of a sort of apocalyptic event, where opening more dark fountains and fountains within fountains could cause mass destruction. Giant beings known as Titans will form from all the fountains, and will cover the world in darkness, turning darkners to stone and leaving humans to fend for themselves.
Ralsei speaks of this like its either a prophecy that was passed down to him, or something he even witnessed first hand. Maybe that's why he has no subjects in Castle Town. But I want to go back to everything I've said here about Ralsei, the most important ones bolded.
• is able to change forms by the drop of a hat (haha)
• is supposedly made of pure darkness like Castle Town's fountain
• fades into nothing when he's downed in battles
• can travel between dark worlds without being brought physically in the light world
• doesn't turn to stone when in other dark worlds while many other darkners do
• knows about a catastrophic event where more fountains are made and giant beasts made from darkness ravage the land
That last part. When I remembered that Ralsei said that the titans are formed from dark fountains, and that Ralsei is a darkner of pure darkness... well that got me thinking: What if Ralsei is a young titan? His first form in chapter 1 could be closer to his true titan form, and he might be taking a new form in chapter 2 to appeal more to lightners.
(Side note Ralsei taking the form of a boss monster, the species that Kris' family is, is another can of worms I have to save when I talk about their connections.)
What if Ralsei is a product of a Neo fountain being created? What if he's the last remnant of a time when there were more fountains, when the sky was black with terror, and the land cracked with fear.


Like, NEO fountains are even talked about more in the Spamton Sweepstakes. When you play this puzzle on the website, and click the 3rd option on the bottom row, you are brought to a sprite of a chair.
We all know the chair, but the phrase in the window of this page definitely seems seems be hinting at the creation of Neo fountains.
What if that's Ralsei's deal. Even if he isn't a titan, what if he's some kind of Neo darkner? What if he's more darkner than darkners in general?
_
Honestly I'm fully prepared for this theory to be steam rolled over when the next two chapters drop, but it was fun and interesting to write nontheless! I'm interested to see if anyone else has their own theory about this or if you even had the same thoughts?

Hi may I request Pyukumuku? :3

A pyukumuku would be a great pet for anyone interested in low-needs aquatic pokémon!
To begin with, these guys are tiny! Not only does this mean that a pyukumuku is not too large for a home environment, it also means that the water habitat you need to provide them won’t be as large. Wild pyukumukus like in shallow seas, near beaches (Sun), so when you’re considering a tank or pool for your buddy to live in think something more like a touch tank at an aquarium, or maybe a kiddie pool. It might not hurt to find a way to warm their habitat, since they waters they make their homes in are usually warm as well as shallow (Sword). It’s not clear in the Pokédex what pyukumukus’ diets are comprised of, but we do know that they are hunters that eject their external organs to consume prey (Sun). Hopefully whatever it is this species likes to eat is easy to come by. Wherever you keep your pyukumuku, keep an eye on them and make sure they don’t get stuck on land to dry out: wild pyukumukus have a bad habit of washing up on the shore and needing humans to toss them back (Ultra Sun). Luckily, they can survive for days in this condition due to the moisture produced by the slime coating their skin (Shield).
Speaking of the slime covering their skin, It has surprising benefits for humans. This sticky mucous, as gross as it is, can soothe sunburns (Moon)! It’s also, despite being described as sticky, slippery (Ultra Moon), so handling your pyukumuku may be a little tricky, especially in the water! You want to get some gloves with good traction, as your bare hands may not cut it.
Pyukumukus don’t appear to be particularly violent. If stepped on by accident, they are known to give the stepper a smack, but that is about it (Ultra Moon). That isn’t to say they can’t defend themselves, of course. Just as they can use their expelled internal organs to consume prey, they can defend themselves from foes (Sun). Using their internal organs, pyukumukus can use Counter to fend off attackers. A majority of pyukumukus’ moves, however, are status moves, many of which are of a high concern. Pyukumukus are, apparently, rather toxic, and can use moves like Gastro Acid and Toxic to poison targets, sometimes badly. Pain Split is a highly concerning move, since it evens out the HP of both a pyukumuku and their target: since I’d wager human beings have a lot more health than a pyukumuku, this could potentially be a big problem. It’s not all bad, though: Recover allows pyukumukus to heal themselves! Overall, while there won't be a lot of reasons for a pyukumuku to attack you unless they see you as a threat, it would be important to handle them carefully. Those gloves I mentioned before may do more that protect you from their slippery slime!
All things considered, given their size and ease of care, pyukumukus would make pretty good pets. They could certainly cause a lot of harm to your health if they wanted to, but so long as you understand how to approach them in an unthreatening way, and how to handle them responsibly, this shouldn't be too big of a problem. The only other issue I'll bring up is that their name can be hard to spell sometimes. If you only knew how long it took to proofread this post!

I would think you're probably aware of Manacled? I bring it up because I just became aware of another author publishing something similar this summer. So Manacled is HP/Handmaids Tale and now a fic that was inspired by that fic is getting published. I can't imagine how this could continue to evolve. Do authors talk about this (privately) like hating that this is happening to their work?
I actually haven’t heard of it—it’s sad, but I don’t read much fic anymore. One of these days I’m sure I’ll wade back in, but I’m generally devouring old comfort reads all the time.
I really don’t think most authors are even aware of it. Those who are probably gripe, but the thing is, you can’t copyright ideas. It’s a gray area for those of us who know it best, but it falls on the side of the new writers unless they’re lifting actual text. But a million authors are inspired by the same ideas and the same stories and have been for centuries, so there’s a shaky line in saying something crosses a boundary. Right now, it’s really up to the readers to reject it if they feel something has gone too far in taking from another source. But they’re not objecting. They’re buying them. So…I don’t see it stopping until the market stops it.

𝙋𝙡𝙖𝙮𝙞𝙣𝙜 𝙎𝙩𝙧𝙞𝙥 𝙂𝙚𝙣𝙞𝙪𝙨 𝙄𝙣𝙫𝙤𝙠𝙖𝙩𝙞𝙤𝙣 𝙬𝙞𝙩𝙝 𝙎𝙪𝙢𝙚𝙧𝙪 𝙂𝙪𝙮𝙨 <3
ᴄʜᴀʀᴀᴄᴛᴇʀꜱ: Tighnari, Cyno, Alhaitham, Kaveh
ꜱᴜᴍᴍᴀʀʏ: Playing Genius Invokation TCG with the bois, but with a silly little twist. Best part is, the stakes are raised. Not only do you have to remove a piece of clothing every time you lose, but you offer yourself up as an extra bet! Who are you rooting for?
ᴄᴏɴᴛᴇɴᴛ ᴡᴀʀɴɪɴɢ: A little suggestive, obvi mentions of alcohol consumption.
ᴀ/ɴ: This was almost entirely inspired from a playlist and artwork I found on YouTube! I loved the idea and so I used it, and I hope you all enjoy it! Link to the playlist is right here!
I also have fuckloads of drafts so I hope you enjoy this one until some other works can be fully written and come out :'D
𝙏𝙞𝙜𝙝𝙣𝙖𝙧𝙞
Pretty alright at Genius Invokation, so facing off against probably some of the few people he usually plays with shouldn't be difficult, no? Sure there are more people but who cares?
He found the strip aspect a bit questionable, yet agreed to it because it was intriguing and added an extra challenge.
He and Cyno are targeting each other (and Kaveh) the ENTIRE time. Boyfriend shit.
Tighnari keeps a good amount of clothes on but doesn't have the best poker face. Either his ears say it all or his expressions do.
Now if you were to make silly little teasing noises whenever he has to remove an item, he wouldn't be able to hold back a slightly embarrassed chuckle. His ears flatten and red can't help itself from creeping onto his face.
If it were indeed the case that you were teasing him, this man would target both you AND Cyno and then mock you with his usual snarky attitude when he finds you having to remove piece after piece of clothing.
He's easily able to ignore any and everyone and the suggestiveness of it all, Tighnari is here to have fun, but not necessarily that kind.
Unless you tease him enough. It starts off playful and then starts getting more attractive to him as things continue and a tension forms between you.
If you become too intoxicated, he'll insist on bringing you back home or to wherever he is staying with the intent on taking care of you and that will not waver, he'll just tell you to pipe down and rest if you try to come onto him in this state.
Tighnari drank nothing but herbal tea. He keeps it with him. Almost entirely off-topic headcanon.
He's such a slow-burn romance trope. I swear.
As for those special stakes of yours, he could honestly care less about them and is more focused on taking care of you. Don't get him wrong, he doesn't hate the idea and the connotations within it, but it isn't exactly his highest priority when it comes to you either.
𝘾𝙮𝙣𝙤
Pretty damn good and Genius Invokation, and seeing as he's a huge fanboy, he pulls up with his own commissioned cardbacks.
While looking stone-faced at Kaveh's proposal, he easily agreed to this considerably "high-stakes" round-after-round disaster.
Would keep the straightest face ever throughout the entire thing, with the occasional smirk.
ONLY THING HE LOSES IS HEADDRESS, CYNO DOES NOT FUCK AROUND Y'ALL.
Targets everyone strategically, but can't resist going for you, Tighnari, or Kaveh. Your reactions are priceless.
Of course, nothing with Cyno would be complete if he weren't making his signature jokes every so often. Except it's only partially to make people laugh. He uses it to throw people off and distract them with his humor so they can make stupid moves.
"You know (y/n), you're talking a lot for someone with low HP on your last card-" Cyno, about to use his Cyno card's ult on your last surviving active card.
Even though his face seems so stone cold and focused, his eyes do still wander. He's literally just "nice" and then snaps back into seriousness.
It'd be arguably more appealing to him if you beat him, but it's clear that he's trashing the WHOLE table right now.
"Sorry, can't hear you over my full row of omnidice."
Cyno ALSO doesn't drink during any of this. At all. He is fully cognizant and aware that he is kicking everyone's ass.
He thoroughly enjoys seeing Alhaitham's frustrated expression, hearing Kaveh's whining, and hearing Tighnari sigh in defeat.
He also thoroughly enjoys seeing more skin from you. He tries not to be too cruel toward you, but he must admit that this is very fun for him.
"I know about your little scheme, (y/n). Come with me." - Cyno, about to cuddle the crap outta you. Bro is tired from beating you all.
𝘼𝙡𝙝𝙖𝙞𝙩𝙝𝙖𝙢
Pretty gud at Genius Invokation even though he barely plays it.
Alhaitham didn't care about the whole strip part because he knew he wouldn't fully have to. Not only that, but he disregarded the idea because its been a while since they all got together like this anyway, so why not?
Only really loses his earphones, I think he probably took off his coat when he sat down just to get comfortable.
He and Cyno are the CEOs of having a poker face.
Knew about your plan before you even had a full-fledged plan, and didn't plan on trying to win to begin with.
Absolutely targets mainly Kaveh. His whining may be annoying but it's funny seeing him act all defeated and dramatic. I cannot stress this enough. He is absolutely WRECKING Kaveh. I mean, everyone is, but especially Alhaitham. It's entirely obvious.
"Oh well, Kaveh. Seems like you lost again. Another piece of your dignity stripped from you." - The voice of a man who just hatecrimed his roommate. Again.
Alhaitham been drinking, watch his attitude amplify. Prepare yourself.
"Come, your move, (y/n)" - Alhaitham, who just downed one of your characters that had full HP with just one move.
Finds the fact that you're self-assured yet keep getting attacked amusing. It's almost like you wanted all of them to see your more intimate form. Almost as if you're not really trying.
Pays no mind to any skin you're showing for the entirety of the game and stays silent most of the time unless he's either drunk or mocking someone knowing he is going to/already has destroyed them.
Uses randomly selected cards and still manages to wreak havoc.
���𝙖𝙫𝙚𝙝
Getting hatecrimed by everyone . He doesn't suck at TCG, but GOD is he getting screwed.
He's the one who initially brought up the strip idea just for fun, but then he was even more motivated when he found that you'd be there.
The drunker Kaveh gets, the more stupid his moves (and his flirting) get.
By the bye, this man is totally WASTED for half the game. His alcohol tolerance is pretty low for someone who regularly enjoys it.
"You're just hatecriming me because I'm a bisexual disaster." "Let's not forget broke." "See? This just proves it."
"Oh (y/n)~, gotta lose a piece of clothing nowww~" he teases after being the one to beat you.
Also happens to be the one getting especially wrecked by everyone at the table and is almost missing half of his clothing. Poor guy.
"Oh no, is Alhaitham finally falling off of his high horse? A shame." "Congratulations, you managed to down ONE of my active characters."
It should be obvious, but lots of roommate-rival banter going on at this table, especially because both of them are drinking.
Kaveh do be glancing at you tho
Tries to insist that Cyno and Alhaitham are cheating, He's wrong, of course, but it's amusing.
If it wasn't obvious by now, Kaveh if the definition of "Talk Shit, Get Hit."

Pokemon Card of the Day #3125: Dark Ursaring (Neo Destiny)

Dark Ursaring was the sort of Pokemon that was built to have a two-attack combo. The plan was to force Pokemon into play then use an attack to deal damage, if lucky, to more of the opponent's Pokemon than your own. You could probably see where this concept could go wrong, based on the need to just randomly fire away and hope for the best. There was nothing stopping the first part of the combo from being used to support other Pokemon, however, and if you were going to find a role for Dark Ursaring it was going to have to be like that.
Dark Ursaring's stats weren't too good outside of one thing. 60 HP was obviously on the lower side for Stage 1 standards, and if you combined it with a Fighting Weakness you had a Pokemon that fell to a heads flip from Tyrogue. The Psychic Resistance, however, was quite nice, being able to block damage from Dark Gengar. The Retreat Cost here was 2, which was significantly worse than the Dark Haunter it tended to compete with for a role.
Provoke required a Colorless Energy to use. It had you look at your opponent's hand and then let you put any Baby or Basic Pokemon you found there onto their Bench as long as there was room to do so. Then, your opponent could look at your hand and do the same. The thought was likely that it would set up for extra Battle Frenzy flips, but Battle Frenzy was pretty bad. There was definitely an argument for pairing this with Dark Crobat to force Baby Pokemon into play to pick off, and that could have some success if the opponent was hiding Pokemon in their hand. This wasn't rare, but also wasn't 100% reliable to be able to target.
Battle Frenzy needed 2 Colorless Energy. A coin was flipped for every Pokemon in play, both your own and the opponent's. Each heads flip was 20 damage to that Pokemon. This meant that this attack could spread damage nicely, or do little, or hit your own side worse, or anything in between. You were relying entirely on coins and how many Pokemon were on each side of play. Keeping your Bench relatively clear was important here, but even then it was so luck based that you really couldn't aim to take advantage of it.
Dark Ursaring's main attack, Battle Frenzy, was too unreliable to even suggest in a casual game because you'd just be watching more coin flips in a format with way too many of those already. Provoke could at least force Pokemon into play, which had some other uses. The game did tend to require everyone to put a Cleffa in play at some point to help set up, however, so Dark Haunter was typically the better option to just cycle that Cleffa in and out of the discard pile to get Prizes with Dark Crobat that way. Dark Ursaring was a different take on the Dark Crobat deck, which wasn't quite as good but could also get multiple targets into play at once. You couldn't really bring back the same target twice in this way, and unless you were an Ursaring fan you'd probably just go with the other version of the deck.

Quick guide to Aventurine Boss Fight
I finally won the fight on my 8th try, and it took 40 minutes. Holy fuck. Here's how I did it and how you can replicate it.
I ran Dan Heng: Imbibitor Lunae, Gepard, Natasha, and March 7th. DHIL can probably be replaced with any character that can deal decent damage and (most importantly) has some form of an AoE attack, such as Burst DMG or AoE DMG.
The best strategy I can suggest is having 3 abundance/preservation characters, and one general damage dealer. Outlasting Aventurine's damage output and imprisonment is a viable strategy.
Skill point and energy management is huge here. I would not use any ultimate outside of the gamble state unless it either defeats Aventurine or allows another character to regain energy. Keeping your skill points up to allow characters to do AoE attacks is critical.
I personally found shielding more helpful than healing. It was much easier to utilize March 7th's and Gepard's endless shielding output than to pray that DHIL survived long enough for a Natasha heal.
March 7th is really, really good for this fight. Her shield has a chance to clear debuffs from your own characters, including the imprisonment status, her follow-ups just slowly keep chipping away at Aventurine's HP and regenerates energy for her ult to be ready, her ult hits all of the dice, and throughout the whole 40 minutes she only lost one gamble due to bad RNG. If you have a built March (mine was half-built, I used spare relics I had while farming for Gepard,) BRING HER.
The main strategy was this: I rigged my party to have characters consistently win the gamble every time. By holding's March's ult until she needed to gamble and saving skill points for DHIL to gamble, I was able to ensure that those two would win every gamble and would probably stay alive, and than it turned into keeping Natasha alive as best I could and slowly defeating Aventurine.
This is absolutely an RNG fight. Good luck. Once again, this strategy is tiring, but it will get a win...eventually.

How to kill all of the Pikmin 3 Bosses with ease, aka, how to drop kick six toddlers
Yes, I'm doing one for Pikmin 3, because I also have played this game too much. SHUT, I had quite a while to play this game, and I have learned the ways to beat the shit out of the local six children of this game, aka, the bosses. (Spoilers for Pikmin 3 and it's bosses down below, btw)
FIRST OF ALL, I'm just going to say this once. Unless a boss fight demands you use Rocks, never bring them to a boss fight*, they are ASS at fighting. Bring Reds, trust me.
*There is an ONE exception, and we'll get to them
Armored Mawdad
So this boi is really easy after the first ten seconds. You basically go for the very back of his tail (The tip thing) and break that. He will shake off Pikmin and rest on a wall. Rush the creature with your Pikmin (Reds first) and watch as he gets capped at 1 HP. Then when he comes down again throw one rock at it and dead
Vehemoth Phosbat
Fun fact, you only need to build half of the bridge. No joke, choose which pile you want to bring over. You can put one Captain in the dark to lure the Phosbat over, just keep in mind that you should rush the pile as soon as it starts to try and eat the Captain (It will fail.) Once half of the bridge is built, wait for the Phosbat to try and eat the Captain in the dark again, call them over, throw 20 Yellows and the Captain over and light the room up. From there, you can just bully the Phosbat with the lights you never turned on because yes they still stun the poor bat. GG easy no re.
Sandbelching Meerslug
Easiest boss in the game, like not even by a long shot. The strategy is simple, bring 100 Reds and win. That's it. Just bring 100 (I think 60 should still work, you just got to be more careful), and when the slug does his sink hole thing, RUSH THE MOUTH. It shouldn't kill any Pikmin, and it forces the slug to come up. Bombless and way easier than before.
Scornet Maestro
First of all, why do you need help with this boss. Second, if you are having trouble, just bring another Captain and have the attacks go onto them. Just remember the attacks the Maestro does don't lock in immediately, they can still switch.
Quaggled Mireclops
Alright, you got two options. ONE: Bring 100 Wingeds, and some Spicy-Spray and auto win, or two, Use Blues and Suffer. I suggest the Winged strat, as it's easier and more funny to pull off. Just rush the guy, then rush him again. Also keep an eye on his health as half way, the tonuge attack changes.
Plasm Wraith*
*(THIS IS THE EXCEPTION TO THE ROCK RULE)
ROCKS. This is the only boss fight I'd recommend using Rock Pikmin, for the shear fact that the main attack this Wraith does WILL NOT KILL THEM. The only things that can kill them are the elemental attacks and as long as you don't suck, you should be fine. Rocks can take out Fire and Rock elemental attacks at any time, electricity you gotta be fast, and Water is a don't even try. Other fun facts with this fight, one, if the Wraith is floating, just walk away. If it has nothing to attack, it's forces to land back down, and two, if the Plasm Wraith feels as if it's surrounded, it will walk into one of the elemental attacks. Try to whistle your Pikmin back BEFORE that happens.
#pikmin#pikmin 3#strategies#how to murder bosses#help with bosses#Just some things you can do to make Pikmin 3 just a bit easier#for the funni#of course#Red Pikmin for the WIN#advice#Make the Plasm Wraith your bitch with these tips!#unhinged as HELL tags let's go#sorry just thought I'd do another one of these cause I love Pikmin 3 a bit too much#LET'S GO BIKMIN THREEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE#swearing#cause I'm old enough let's go

Hello again - I return with yet another idea that was going to be a short little thing that turned into a much longer thing because I am apparently incapable of being concise when it comes to making my favourite goblin be very sad and reluctant to accept help from the people who love him :)
So. The Bad Kids are out fighting some sort of monster and things go south for Riz really quickly at the end of the fight. He gets the fear spell cast on him and then immediately gets knocked down to zero hp. He can’t run away and his body goes into a full panic attack which makes him fail two death saves instantly and then before anyone can get close enough to heal him, he gets caught in the radius of another spell which fully kills him.
He was expecting to wake up and see his dad, but Pok was off on a job so no one was around to help calm him down. And because time moves weirdly in heaven, what was a maximum of twelve seconds in real life felt like hours for Riz and he was panicking the whole time, knowing he was dead but also feeling like he was going to die again somehow. He didn’t immediately register Kristen’s healing magic when it came to bring him back because he was so convinced it was a second layer of death coming for him. He actually tried to resist it and failed because he was panicking so much he couldn’t concentrate, which was very good because it meant Kristen was able to bring him back.
When he came to, his fear response kicked in straight away and he sprinted off to try and hide. Gorgug managed to catch him and luckily even after getting pretty hurt during the fight was still able to withstand the biting and clawing that came with holding a terrified goblin (Fabian was also on hand to try and catch Riz if he escaped from Gorgug). It took a long time to convince Riz that he was safe, and even then there was nothing anyone could do to try and convince him to sleep that night because of how on edge he was.
The next time Riz has a panic attack was also not pleasant for anyone. He was in the school library with Adaine and Gorgug doing some research for a group project when something set him off (looking back, no one is quite sure what it was that triggered it). The panic made him unable to breathe properly and he felt like he was dying, and normally Adaine or whoever was around would tell him that he wasn’t and they would help him remember how to breathe again and it would be okay. But last time he felt like this, he had actually died and nearly stayed dead, so he wasn’t exaggerating when he said he felt like he was dying, and that just made him hyperventilate more to the point that he did end up passing out for a few seconds, which really sent him spiralling. It was just as well Gorgug was also there because seeing Riz in this state was making Adaine freak out too so Gorgug told her to update the group and then go and get Jawbone.
Fig showed up almost instantly and wanted to use the sleep spell to give Riz a chance to calm down. Luckily Jawbone arrived just in time to stop that idea - Riz already felt like he was dying, knocking him out for several hours was not going to help right now. While Jawbone knew that all of the kids were worried about Riz, having them hovering around was clearly making Riz more anxious, so he asked all of them apart from Kristen to give them some space, and Kristen was only able to stay because Riz knew she could bring him back if he did die again,
It took a very long time, but Jawbone eventually helped Riz through a long series of panic attacks, and once he had confirmation from Riz, he let the others come back (they had of course been only a few feet around the corner - enough distance to give Riz some privacy, but close enough that they could get back to him quickly if needed).
Even without any actual meetings with Riz, Jawbone had been building up a file of notes and observations about Riz. Confidentiality was obviously important and he would never share anything his students told him unless he thought they were at risk. However, a two hour long string of near constant panic attacks where Riz had briefly passed out from hyperventilating three separate times, and had in itself been triggered by a panic attack was a serious enough incident that Jawbone called Sklonda in a professional capacity to tell her that Riz needed more help than he felt qualified to give. He gave her a few trusted contacts to have a look at, and promised her that Aguefort had good insurance for mental health treatment so money wasn’t going to be a problem.
Simply bringing up the idea of therapy a few days later sent Riz into another series of panic attacks, but he did eventually agree. Step one had to be to undo the damage done by the previous “therapist” that had seen Riz after Pok died. Step two was breaking the panic attack spirals. Step three was working out what else had to be dealt with and in what order, because surprisingly repressing every bad experience was not good for him.
Riz slowly gets better at managing his anxiety. Getting diagnosed with a whole bunch of stuff including autism, adhd, c-ptsd, and ocd definitely helps because he has a much better idea of what is making him anxious and what he can do about that - if it’s an autism thing he probably needs somewhere quiet and dark where he can read about his special interests, if it’s an adhd thing he may need to run off some excess energy to calm down, if it’s a ptsd thing something has probably triggered him, if it’s an ocd thing he can try to manage the compulsions. One day when he was very overwhelmed and everything was bad at the same time, Adaine sat with him in his office and they made a little clue board to work out what he could do in a given situation. He keeps a photo of it in his pocket that he can refer to when he’s away from his desk.
Panic attacks remain a huge trigger for him, along with mirrors and having anything on or around his neck, but finally knowing why he does certain things makes it a lot easier to accept/ask for help and get through day-to-day life.
I love reading these so much dont stop. The only problem is they're so good i cant find anything to add because *gestures* perfect.
You get an A+ in submission, which is something both normal to want and possible to acheive.

I made a few of these, but these will be the last ones before I stop. I had essays planned out for each character and their Pokémon, but I was too lazy to finish them.
Al Haitham the Normal Pokémon gym leader that the town begged to take the position because they wanted to put their dying/fading town on the map. I cannot see that going any other way, because of how lazy he really is. He wouldn’t actively choose to take the title. And people just ignore that in favor of mischaracterizations.
The Eevee is there simply for company. It doesn’t fight nor is it aggressive, but Al Haitham has trained it to fetch his things (small stuff like shoes, headphones, housekeys, and journals). If Eevee is asleep on his stomach, Al Haitham refuses to move. You’re not getting your gym challenge until that Eevee wakes up; and if you forcibly make Eevee wake up, gym leader Al Haitham will just disappear. If you want that badge, you need to respect his (Eevee’s) nap time.
Sawsbuck – I mainly thought of convenience to Al Haitham when choosing Sawsbuck because it changes form depending on the season. It helps him keep track of the time that passes. And since he lives in the forest region of Sumeru, he wouldn’t have a problem with caring for Sawsbuck’s dietary needs or deal with its heat rash (I imagine Sawsbuck to have very sensitive skin.), unless he actively brought it out to the desert.
Delcatty – I was tempted to give Al Haitham a team full of cats. Will they do as he says? Maybe. Will he take care of them and buy them all the expensive cat treats and get them the best veterinary care? Absolutely. Very “childless adult” coded. It’s Pokédex entries state it like to “live an unfettered existence” and “habitually seeks comfortable spots and sleeps there.” So… Al Haitham? Al Haitham. He cannot be bothered to do things unless necessary or to get someone to stop bothering him. Also uses Eevee and Delcatty as pillows when napping outside of his house.
Braviary – Al Haitham’s name in Hebrew literally just means “the young hawk” or “the young eagle.” As much as I’m pushing “Al Haitham is a lazy fucker,” he is willing to put in effort for the people that he cares about. I have not met or heard of a single person, in this case Al Haitham, who would buy 10 cases of wine for another, Kaveh, as an apology in a domestic/verbal dispute. I don’t think Al Haitham would willingly fight someone for his friends, but he’d at least verbally defend them; violence as a last resort because it’s too much effort kind of thing.
One of Braviary’s Pokédex entries, “It's thought that people disturbed their habitats in the past, so Braviary banded together to fight back.” If you disturb Al Haitham, he’s going to 100% snap back at you with his bluntness. It’s not that he’s being mean, other people are actively choosing ignorance; he’s not in your face about it as Dr. Ratio is though.
Blissey – I wanted him to have a tank, because that’s the pattern I see with most Normal type gyms. It’s Pokédex entries left much to be desired, but Blissey can make for a good Sp. Attack tank with a high HP. If I MUST used the Pokédex entries for my reasoning for Al Haitham’s team, I would use the entries from PKMN Brilliant Diamond and PKMN Violet respectively, “This kindhearted Pokémon nurses sick Pokémon to health. It senses feelings of sadness” and “The eggs it lays are filled with happiness. Eating even one bite will bring a smile to anyone.” Although Al Haitham genuinely wants to be left alone and left in peace, he’s not particularly arrogant or greedy. He genuinely wants people to be happy and live peacefully by improving themselves.
Silvally – The Pokémon I chose because of its adaptability. It can change type based on what memory it’s holding, and it’s a Pokémon that requires a high friendship level to evolve from Type: Null. While other trainers choose to be loving and sweet or bond with their Pokémon through the sheer excitement of battle, Silvally seems like a Pokémon that values its trainer’s intellect and bonds with them through observation of their character. Note that I have not seen this Pokémon through the anime or manga nor do I want to; if Silvally was portrayed in a different manner, I’m not going to bother any further.
Pokémon Up for Consideration:
Snorlax and/or Slaking – Both very lazy Pokemon. Very representative of Al Haitham’s laziness. But also, high maintenance for their food cost and overall size. At least the cat Pokemon are somewhat attentive and give back to Al Haitham when he gets them things. I can’t see Snorlax and Slaking doing anything Al Haitham says, which would be more of a pain to him that a few felines running around.
Pidgeot and/or Staraptor – I had to decide between the different bird Pokemon for Al Haitham’s constellation and just his namesake. Braviary fit the bill best.
Castform and/or Ditto – My only thought was “A shape-shifting Pokemon that makes it easy to adjust combat.” But Castform changes with the weather can easily be manipulated if the opponent uses Sunny Day, Sandstorm, Hailstorm, or Raindance. Just because Ditto changes form, that doesn’t guarantee it can beat the Pokémon it copied.
Miltank – I genuinely don’t remember this gym battle in the games, but supposedly other people had difficulties beating Whitney’s (アカネ/Akane) Miltank. So, I was considering this Pokémon as Al Haitham’s tank/defense Pokémon.
Porygon2 – No inherent reason. It just looks nerdy, like Al Haitham’s brain.
Beidou and Fighting type Pokémon
I took into consideration Water type Pokémon or Electric because Beidou’s a pirate with an Electro vision, but I didn’t think either type fit her overall. So, I decided on Fighting type. Beidou is the kind of person who would stabbb 🔪 as a warning.
(Mega Form) Lopunny – Beidou’s signature or star Pokémon. She thought it was a cutie when it was just a little Buneary, but the more Beidou carried her around the more they bonded and the stronger they became together.
Machamp – “It is impossible to defend against punches and chops doled out by its four arms. Its fighting spirit flares up when it faces a tough opponent.” (PKMN Emerald) Stronk boi, can help around the ship, but also be a good combatant on Beidou’s Pokémon team.
Mienshao – “It overwhelms its opponents with continuous attacks and then slowly stores up power before delivering the finishing blow.” (PKMN Ultra Sun) I think Beidou is very much the type of person not to judge someone for their appearance. “Tiny but mighty” always gets a laugh out of her
Poliwrath – Originally, I wanted to do water types because pirate on the high seas, duh. But it just wasn’t enough BEIDOU vibes. Someone confident fighter who doesn’t back down from defending someone she loves. “Poliwrath's highly developed, brawny muscles never grow fatigued, however much it exercises. It is so tirelessly strong, this Pokémon can swim back and forth across the ocean without effort.” (PKMN Ultra Sun/Moon)
Toxicroak – It was just the aesthetic and color combo. I thought Toxicroak would look good with Beidou.
Pokémon Up for Consideration:
Lucario – I was considering Lucario because it’s a staple for any Pokémon team. But I couldn’t particularly see why Beidou should have or why she would want Lucario on her team other than it looks cool.
Urshifu (Rapid Strike Style) – She may not always have her land legs, but you’re not trapped with a bear, a man, or a tiger. You’re trapped with Beidou. This woman took on a sea monster without a vision for several days and nights. I’m sure she can fight Urshifu just fine. But I just didn’t like the aesthetic or Pokémon entries for Beidou.
Wriothesley and Dark type Pokémon
As you can see, Sigewinne got to Wriothesley’s card.
Weavile – At this point, I just got really tired. So, most of my choices were just based on vibes and overall character personality.
Zigzagoon – The Tiny Racoon Pokémon is just there to be cute. Wriothesley yanked it out of the trash when it was a baby, didn’t see the mother or father around, and decided to keep it. The first day at home, in the Fortrss of Meropide, it bit his finger and wouldn’t let go. Ever since then, it has accompanied Wriothesley wherever he goes and hides in his coat. Zigzagoon even has his own playpen in Wriothesley’s office, kind of like an oversized hamster cage.
Pangoro – Wriothesley earned the respect of this Pokémon simply because he was furious and wanted to punch something. “From the slight twitches of its bamboo leaf, it deduces its opponent's movements. It's eager to tussle but kindhearted toward its companions.” (PKMN Moon) If you squint, Wriothesley does look like a panda, just need to make those greys and white pop out more.
Mabosstiff – “This Pokémon can store energy in its large dewlap. Mabosstiff unleashes this energy all at once to blow away enemies.” (PKMN Scarlet)
“Mabosstiff loves playing with children. Though usually gentle, it takes on an intimidating look when protecting its family.” (PKMN Violet)
Mightyena – In keeping a dog theme, I considered Mightyena.
Muk – “While it's unexpectedly quiet and friendly, if it's not fed any trash for a while, it will smash its Trainer's furnishings and eat up the fragments.” (PKMN Moon) In short, Wriothesy STANK. He says this in his voice line for Emilie the perfumer and forensics cleaner, “The Fortress of Meropide doesn't need her services. Yet some things are best preserved the way they are, warts and all, so people don't make the same mistakes twice... I say warts, but yeah. I mean the smell.”
Pokémon Up for Consideration:
Urshifu (Single Strike Style) – I thought it looked cool for Wriothesley, but it’s also another Pokémon he could fist fight when bored.
Absol – If feel like he, too, prefers preventative measures, if you remember The Wingalet from the Archon Quest that he had been building in the Fortress. The Disaster Pokémon seemed like a good fit.
Ayato and Steel type Pokémon
I feel like Ayato would end up being in the Elite Four or something out of nepotism, but he’s still actively a dangerous opponent.
Mawhile – His signature simply because he thinks it would be unexpected and funny.
Empoleon – Ayato and Empoleon have both carried me through their respective games. As my main in Genshin Impact, I felt like Ayato and Empoleon would be a good match. Not only is Empoleon just a regal figure of a Pokémon, but this Pokémon is a “Pillar of Fortitude” in its own right.
Bisharp, Aegislash, Cobalion
Pokémon Up for Consideration:
Steelix, Doublade, Kingambit
