Dear authors, please make your female main characters even just a tad bit older, I'm actually begging you.
Like, they really don't need to be 19-20 and falling in love with centuries old immortal beings. You can make them 25+ and people will still read and enjoy the books.
I promise women don't turn to dust and wrinkles at 30..
I KNEW IT! Matt Mercer voiced The Viper! I had it clocked as soon as that character started talking, I fucking KNEW IT.
If you see this you’re legally obligated to reblog and tag with the book you’re currently reading
As someone who did some conducting with her HS marching band (half a lifetime ago), that was the first thing I noticed about his magic! It's beautiful and lyrical and so dreamy.

Time is out here doing the lord's work. I love him with a beard!
Folks modding his stache off just made me want to give him more facial hair. 😤
OH so when the Dread Wolf uses the lives of spirits to advance HIS cause, everyone forgives HIM, but when *I*, Johanna Hezenkoss—
My beautiful Rook, Loviata Ingellvar, modeled after my most recent D&D character. After about 80 hours, I have finished Veilguard. I'm doing some achievement fishing in an earlier save right now, I only have a few more that I want to make sure I get.
I found the game lots of fun and the lore rich but easy to follow. This is my first DA game, and honestly my first RPG with real-time combat. I'm bot good at it and played on the easiest difficulty, but I had a good time!
I'm already planning out a second Rook, but I will be sad to leave this one behind. I know she and Emmrich will live happily ever after until the end of their days.
it used to be 2007 you know
I love Nevarra. They have a whole mini-city just to store their dead, where the aesthetic is to cover everything in skeleton motifs and then say ‘hm, not enough bones.’ Need to make a magic bridge? It’s bones, for absolutely no reason other than the vibes. They’ve got mummification down to an art form. Their best known king reportedly lived to be 127, sparred with his grandson on the day of his death, kicked his grandson’s ass, then went to take a nap and died. And you know they mummified him and gave him the fanciest room in the whole Necropolis, as you do.
They historically go ham about dragons, to the point they have winter balls to celebrate dragon hunts and would display dragon parts at the party (they used to use real dragon bits, but rotting dragon smells awful, so now they do replicas of dragon heads and hearts and stuff.) They have fast paced regional dances inspired by how fucking cool dragons are.
They’ve got the biggest and most important mage school that runs the whole dang Circle of Magi (suck it, Orlais.) They have a whole annual event where people just get together to argue philosophy and drink tea. They’re big on historical reenactments. They like ice skating. They’re a bunch of foodies who thinks aesthetics are as important as taste. They invented flatbread (possibly their most important historical contribution.) They love beetles and consider them good luck, and sometimes keep them as pets.
I just think it’s neat!!
It's my 10 year anniversary on Tumblr 🥳 and I really only started using it in the last three months. Like, I signed up 10 years ago and then just never used it 😂
I'm working on some #bg3 fanfic stuff, with more to come as the inspiration hits.
