Vyvanse is a great wizard name

Once spirited away to the realms of faerie, the body returned but the mind remained

Made a world designed to suffer and a guy at the center to doubleplus suffer

It's me, I'M the dark Godhead of the universe😭

In my head they're more scarab than wolf, jaws with teeth and bunch of fur. I think some chimeras are more one animal than the other, must explore this.🤔

They call me Adalimumab the Curse Suppressor

It's not a great name tbh

I welcome the utter collapse of the Big Five and the publishing industry at large if it means publishers start experimenting and taking risks on weird or niche shit in their search for the New Big Thing instead of practicing literary vampirism

I don't think the high-intensity milking of singular trends, to the exclusion most other things, to prop up an entire industry that won't stop shooting its own feet, has ever been or will be a good thing whatsoever tbh

Well, I've mentioned panther-apes, scarab-wolves, boar-bulls and centi-eels (also now, bat-boons and wer-drills) and that is because 1. I made them up on the spot, and 2. I decided this world is infested with chimeras and uber-beasts. Some truly unnatural monsters may follow.

You can domesticate anything here if you try hard enough💪
Creepy sleek panther-apes can be seen as the pets of Imperial Legates, scarab-wolves are favoured as trackers, and boar-bulls and centi-eels (centeels?) provide much meat, fur, leather, and fibrous tensile materials.

All plans for the next Shadows & Sorcery are going out the window and into a conveniently placed grave right below said window because I'm feelin pretty fuckin vvampyrick and full of bitter phantasmal darkness this week in the face of spring's blooming and the coming tyranny of the sun

Something thematically appropriate about finding a really good vampyric dungeon synth artist only to find out they haven't released a single piece of music in over five years

It's like finding a dust-shrouded but still beautiful relic in an old tomb and languishing in its lost glories, you know?

Nah he'd see the world I made and then have Veney functionally be responsible for, he'd encourage my demise😭

Knights, Elves, Golems, Dragons

These four fantasy things are what I call Template Creatures or Prefix People (Preple?), since they seem to be most common and/or easiest things to assign, say, an elemental or other conceptual prefix to

I may develop something with these for funsies👀

Carloman: deeply appreciative🙏
Sepp: *sad wet dog face*
Alzared: my man💪
Kastaine: my man💪
Veney: *tries to kill me and I probably let him*
Candorick & Rudge: hey why don't you write about us anymore

ALSO I think Shiro Sagisu worked on Bloodborne??

2017 anime is ass, the Blu Rays marginally improved it but not enough to really fix it. 97 series was the almighty Susumu Hirasawa doing the music, and he MIGHT have done a track for the 2017 one? He also did Paprika, Paranoia Agent, and a ton of albums, he's great, very unique sound.

I just got followed by two politics accounts that I think are bots, both are called A Moveable Feed, they post the exact same weird self-advertising posts with hashtags that aren't actually hashtags, and somehow have 2k followers each

Block em chooms

But, y'know, it's also a fantasy world with extreme concepts at play for sheer aesthetic delight.

In this character's particular circumstances, freedom for the world was hard won and is perpetuated at great risk. Freedom is an ideal to be adhered to as closely as possible in the form of *agency* through empowerment, and is a right, not a privilege, that requires protection.

Shadows & Sorcery #200 This week, we’re taking a trip back to the savage, lurid, bloodsoaked lands written of in the Codex Barbarion, where grim, thirsting gods demand battle for their favour and blessings.

The 200th edition of my fantasy collection Shadows & Sorcery has been out for nearly a week and I'd really like to see it get some views🙏 It's free to read, standalone fiction, no sub needed!

I'm going through every single edition of Shadows & Sorcery to find all the Carloman and Demiurge stories I forgot to label. While this has neither, turns out poor forgotten #53 is an absolute banger. Give it some love, please.

Starting to feel bad about my drawing so I've made it my goal, since I've had the week off from writing, to draw something cool tonight

Stay tuned!

🤣🤣🤣

Okay it goes in the list. Paranoia Agent, too, maybe?

Also Aowna sorry for invading your notifications

It's just one of things that sticks in my head FOREVER, like a lot of the weird shit from this series

Unlike 90% of my entire school education, but that wasn't about [REDACTED]

Can't answer that for Demiurge, since I don't think even the human gnostics enjoy much. Dragonmagick though? What do dragons and dragon-men do for fun? I don't actually know but my best guess would be A LOT of blood sports and duels. These beings have an intense need to display might, you see.

You know, now that I think of it, Berserk '97 also had this going. Tell Me Why is pretty upbeat and then Berserk happens.

I think it's time to put together a team☝️

From what I remember there IS a reason but it's also A Huge Spoiler for a major plot thing. It's something that NERV has been able to weaponize and the implications are incredibly cool, that is all I shall say.

Ooh I don't know what one. I'm just thinking like

*BANGER OP*
*COOL IMAGERY*
*ROBOTS ACTION MONSTERS*
*20 solid minutes of child abuse*
