So far?
The various techniques the Gods use to make instanced dungeons canonical and diegetic.
In book II, we get to see the kind of glitch sargasso that results when instanced dungeons are stitched together poorly.

This might be a tricky question, but in your opinion, what is the ✨️most powerful✨️ use of magic in your system?
Of course, this all depends on how you define "powerful"! It may not necessarily have anything to do with how much damage is dealt...

OK so even though kaana crystals can be used to do all kinds of impressive things, I'd say the *most* powerful technique is Perpetuation (and related, Animation).
Animation spells only imbue an inanimate object with about as much consciousness as a houseplant...🧵1/5

A bit frustrating that I asked @contrapoints.bsky.social a straightforward question about the strategy of unconditionally pledging your support regardless of policy stances, she replied with a strawman, I called that out and elaborated on it, and she then responded to a bunch of people (but not me).

Deedee’s ideal date - likely with any or all of Ace, Alesha, or Ralph, and sure Hikaru + Shiv-Han and Sekhmet + Piper can join in too - is taking in some entertainment (on Mundus, probably a play or garden), a meal, then some. Privacy.

Happy Valentine's Day! ❤️ Let's talk romance!
What would your character's ideal date night be?
Do they have anyone specific they would want to be with?
Or would they rather have a quiet night to themselves?

The anual Vindra Redraw!
In honor of Vindra becoming a canon ship two years ago I decided to redraw the first piece I ever made of them, when they were a crackship, since then I’ve redarwn them every year for Valentines!
I added the previous years drawings in the comments!

If we accept that people do play both the text of the game as they read it and the promise of a game as they perceive it, and often prioritize that promise over the text, then what's to be done in terms of design?

This video is always good but one thing I want to highlight: if all you do is talk about your job and not like who you are as a person, I'm looking for the exit of the conversation. I don't care about your grindset, what movies are you watching, bro.
need to make everyone in San Francisco watch this video every morning and every night
