honestly you really need to see these things in motion because they’re buck wild
(also i’m gonna be That Guy and point out that wilkins wasn’t a prototype kermit as kermit already existed, although he was Kermit the Fucked Up Lizard Thing rather than Kermit the Frog at that point in time)
help i accidentally created a cleric with a -1 to religion checks how the fuck did i even do that
“hey i just realized, we’ve been on this trip for weeks and i’ve never really seen you praying”
“eh, yeah, i mostly only do that sort of stuff at greengrass and midsummer”
“…. sharindlar literally gives you magical powers. you have a magical tattoo.”
“yeah she’s cool, she knows i’m busy”
religion checks are more about knowledge regarding deities than devotion
“don’t worry, guys, sharindlar will smite the shit outta anyone we need smote, that’s what she’s all about!”
“… isn’t she an avatar of mercy and life?”
“she’s an avatar of shut the hell up”
Character with skill sets that don’t match their class are my favorite thing
When I first started playing Pathfinder I thought “craft” meant like “watercraft” and I gave a ton of it to my Barbarian so I wouldn’t be useless running with the two pirates in our group.
Mid game my DM was like “No… Like… Arts and crafts.”
And I was like “Fuck it he knits, is there any yarn on the ship?”
DM: *Rolls dice* … *Looks up* This shipment is nothing but yarn.
Me: I’m going to knit a sweater.
DM: What’s your craft score again? *Looks at page*………………. Don’t even roll…
DM: So you all pull into port wearing sweaters beautifully knitted by our goddamned Barbarian.
Ragtag group of scoundrels & assassins: Yay!
i generally don’t reblog this post much because if i did that for every example someone reblogged this with i’d spam everyone’s feed, but i love this
If Sollux was a fantroll have you ever thought about how quickly this terrible fandom would have called him a Gary Stu and put him on bad fantroll blogs everywhere circa 2013
“You can’t have two dreamselves!!! Trolls only have two horns this is the easiest rule!!! Oh yeah of course he moves a METEOR he and his ancestor are the STRONGEST psionics on Alternia that’s not op…… ‘Voices of the doomed,’ really? Wow ‘woe is me I hear dead people, and know I’m going to die, and die all the time I get an extra life just to be a martyrly hero,’ and…. I mean idk is this okay bipolar representation? I’m pretty sure op isn’t bipolar…. Such a whump character everyone wants you to feel bad for their poor mutant baby…..”
This isn’t me calling Sollux a Gary Stu it’s me laughing at how completely ridiculous the Homestuck fandom was about fantrolls at its peak (myself somewhat included, I’m ashamed to say)
I LEFT OUT THE MAGICAL HETEROCHROMIA IM DYING we’ve hit every bad fantroll point on the books okay we’ve got:
heterochromia
mutant
breaks the “rules” of trolls
special OP powers
special OP immunity
is “the best”
angst powers that are a burden to bear
arguably (as in, a bad fantrolls blog could and would argue it) “gratuitous” mental illness
Literally every complaint I can think of there it is
This is a perfectly cromulent post but I initially read it as Solas and am now having the WORST ideas for Dragon Age/Homestuck fanart.
please allow me to introduce you to everyone’s favorite Rubik’s cube of the sea, the Yellow Boxfish. they’re, uh.
well. see for yourself.
a vision of geometric perfection and kissy lips
yeah.
despite looking like an ocean-borne Bethesda glitch, the Yellow Boxfish is a real animal with hopes and dreams just like yours.
well, maybe slightly more angular
found in warm water reefs worldwide, (say that five times fast) Yellow Boxfish start life tiny and bright yellow, eventually fading in color as they reach their adult length of about 18 inches. they live mostly off algea and the bitter tears of mathematicians. (just wait until they discover the Hypercube Boxfish)
your frustration sustains me!
we STILL don’t know how they work- being a literal cube seems to make them incredibly agile swimmers, but we’re not sure why. maybe the ocean is just really into right angles?
nature just loves rectangles I guess
also just in case they weren’t weird enough, they also have a bad habit of squirting a deadly poison everywhere whenever they get startled, like an excitable toxin grenade
PANIC! PANIC! RELEASE THE TOXINS
while it is an efficient way to murder the shit out of every other fish in the general vicinity, this toxin has zero effect on humans. unless you were to attempt to eat the Boxfish, so don’t do that.
you probably couldn’t anyway, this is what a Boxfish skeleton looks like
Yellow Boxfish are popular pets and are kept by many aquarists. your local fish store may have one right now, go say hello! but gently, lest you accidentally startle this weird dumb square toxic grenade of the sea.
DAT ME
IT YOU
I know this is an art blog but I’m making an exception because your animal series is honestly the best content on this website
Excuse me for a quite long delay between drawings, my internet
connection went into coma and I was kinda offline most of the time, and
only managed to fix the problem yesterday.
I actually tried to
draw Samurai Jack during offline time (like woah new episodes are cool),
but it was a complete, terrible failure, so yeah, take this instead! I
mean it’s quite a simple pic, but whatever.
Also I will hopefully upload another drawing that I made offline tomorrow. Hopefully.
