For the sake of a pinned post and another intro:

Hey, I'm Archi!

I'm a non-binary creator who is really into making maps, recipes, and all things flora and fauna. I work on original projects and fan works, and I yell about Dragon Age and Dungeon Meshi a lot.

A chance encounter

illustration inspired by the Scandinavian fairytale, "Bride of the Lindworm". A prince in the form of a lindworm perches on a moss-covered rock and peers curiously at a shepherdess from across a dark pond. The woman reaches toward him. The scene is set in a dark forest.

As much as I love writing letters to my players for dnd… I dunno if I’m strong enough to hear them read out loud.

But also >:) I love the theories it has spawned.

"'The more we try to understand what's going on in the world around us—the more we don't just withdraw into a hermitude of my family and I as a nuclear unit, the more we try to understand our society—I think the more these kinds of games speak to us,' Short said."

Founder of Dwarf Fortress and Caves of Qud publisher Kitfox Games says its procgen sims for sickos are 'giving storytelling tools back to the people when games and passive media took them away'

Streets of Fortuna, Kitfox's own in-development "megasim," is chasing that same systems-driven storytelling.

Bed [1/4]

Cartoon crow looking sad is flying in a wobbly pattern.

As he flies, a strange arch is seen below.

The arch leads is a lighted room, despite it not being attached to a building. The crow is curious about it.

The crow looks into the arch thru its broken window.

Worker owned things will have much better time existing when people will understand that “the rich/capitalists” doesn’t mean “anybody who gets paid (slightly more than me) for their work”

Aura/Moom @moomanibe.bsky.social · 5d

when I was defending itch I heard from a lot of - frankly to my shock - other queers who were like "it's a platform, platforms are the enemy" and until we're able to distinguish _as users_ the ways in which worker owned services aren't your enemy and deserve grace, we won't be seeing very many

I did a silly little Minthara comic for this~!

A part of a comic page featuring Minthara from BG3 lying on the ground looking upset. A hand reaches out to her from above, and a text bubble says “A hand, m’lady?”

Thank you to the Alaska Raptor Center for telling the truth that birders already knew: every bald eagle cry you hear in an advertisement is a red-tailed hawk.
