I love half-spider, half-humanoid creatures (looking at you, Quelaag and her sister from Dark Souls 🖤). Probably not the exact vibe you’re going for, but still pretty awesome.

Thanks. They never seen the star and that's the description they are going by (they have only seen it drawn on a pictograph).

Aldous: Super complicated. His parents can't marry. His dad's a loser that makes his family's life harder. His mom is bedridden and wished she could do more, and demands a lot of Aldous. Aldous would do anything to protect his younger sister. Everyone counts on Aldous. He can't rely on anyone.

No body, but the fire wasn’t without tragedy. But I already made him live through it.

Thank you! If it weren’t for the threat outside, Aldous would’ve leaned into it.

Belfry: Large wooden structures resembling bell towers, built during a siege for archers to fire from. The base is carted in, but unlike traditional siege towers they aren’t mobile. Moving something that heavy through sand is impractical.

Oof. That sucks. Rough way to start the day.

Yeah, it angers her when people don’t pay attention when they should, but she’s empathetic enough to know accidents happen. She's especially forgiving since Aldous forgave her. If the server genuinely doesn’t care, or made the mistake on purpose, though… that’s when she gets mad.

Super busy today, but I'll be using this word a lot:

git commit -m "feat: Added this amazing feature that will probably not make it to prod 😭. I even wrote unit tests for it."

Traveling formations: A company advances in four lines. A Cornicen is in each column to relay orders
Front: pikemen, kataphracts, pikemen
Support: four columns of archers + officers
Third: Footmen, Knights, Footmen
Baggage is boxed in by Honor Guards and Hussars, protecting logi & siege engines.

Siege tactics: Companies focus on a weakened wall section, using battering rams, belfries, and tunneling. The primary goal is breaching wide enough to allow cavalry entry, a feat the kingdom hasn’t achieved in eighty years.

Open field tactics: Hussars harass enemy flanks with arrows, withdrawing before retaliation. If pursued, they fire behind them while retreating behind pikemen. Once cohesion breaks, kataphracts charge weakened sections, followed by infantry to finish the rout.
