have some kitty pics! the tabby is newt (officially newton, also referred to as “twerpling”, “eftling/eftlet” (an eft is a baby newt), “sister-botherer”, “deariest darlingest twerpiest catsicle”, and “sweetling”), and the black cat is leila (also known as beastie; dignified, cranky old lady who is Unimpressed With Brother). while it may not be obvious, the first pic is newt Very Pointedly existing just outside the door to what’s temporarily my (cat-allergic) brother’s room, and he was absolutely radiating “see i am Not In There”

I love the word "left" for a baby newt. I learned it some years ago and found myself delighted that someone had thought to give a name to the baby shape of such an unlikely and underappreciated creature. Furthermore, it is a very good word. It feels good in the mouth.
I love Newt and his vast array of names. In my experience, many great cats acquire a tremendous number of names. I'm not sure why this is. Is it human nature? Is it that some names lend themselves better to other names? Or is it that some names are harder to nickname and so we have to really get creative and perhaps go outside of names that evoke the original name at all? Or is it related to how spiritually old the cat is, and how many of its lives it has gone through? Seems to me that a cat at its ninth life would have the power to carry many names. But it also makes sense that a cat very early in its lives would have many nicknames because it has not used as many names in all of its further spiritual travels. I don't know. Let me know what you think, guys.
May I suggest a further contraction of two of Newt's names? Twerpsicle! Try it out and let me know how it goes!
I love Leila. First, that is a beautiful name. Second, She looks like such an elegant and patient Void, well schooled in the arts of Void Elegance. I see that she has taken to heart the important lesson that the best place for a Void is in a Sunbeam, both to absorb its radiant power, and to better show off the dramatic Void coat. Congratulations Leila, you are absolutely killing it.

This is just one land in Phantasialand in Germany, but the details in the theming of this one area of the park alone is enough for me to add Phantasialand to my bucket list (it joins Disneyland Paris, Tokyo Disneyland, Hong Kong Disneyland, Shanghai Disneyland, and Eftling -- another theme park in Germany -- though seeing this makes Phantasialand higher on the list than Eftling).
I mean, just look at this flume ride in another area of Phantasialand to see they didn’t just suddenly “get it” and build a cool new land; they’ve “gotten it” for a while if this area that two attractions share is any indication (for the record, the park is currently closed due to virus restrictions):

I do think you should visit Spookslot at Efteling, it's got quite a history to it. Once belonging to a Count who was a known sorcerer, musician, and collector, whose music could make his home come alive. It became cursed by a witch who became jealous of his power. She was burnt at the stake, but in her dying moments, she cursed him and all involved in her death. Now their souls are trapped there, and the domain continues to move to his melodies as overseen by the Witch's familiar.
"I would love to visit one day. It seems positively enchanting! And their ghostly band can actually carry a tune."

So! On AO3 I gave you my headcanon for how troll aging works: 30 years to hatch from birthstones (which is canon, at least according to wikia), then it’s 1 troll year = 8 human years, since 16 is potty training age for troll whelps. Potentially this rate gets a little slower once they reach adulthood.
You said you had your own headcanons for how it worked, so I’m curious to what they are? I think you said you saw Callista as being the troll equivalent of 18-19, and she’d been in the dungeons for 300 years. So 1 troll year = 16ish human years? I think? I’m terrible at math 😂
Edit: I’m still getting used to tumblr, messed up the cut lmao. 
Oof, math is not my strong suit either lmao. I don't exactly have an equivalent math-wise between human and troll years, I headcanon that they develop super differently from each other! I made a whole chart for how ages line up forever ago, before I learned that the oldest recorded troll age is supposed to be a little over 3000. I'm too attached to the ideas I came up with, though, so I'm ignoring canon on that one! I made trolls like, stupidly long-lived, whoops.
This ended up being a monster of a post, so I put it under the cut lmao. I'm sort of a headcanon gremlin, so prepare yourself!
The first category of age would be Whelps, which is both a term for the equivalent to a human toddler, as well as a bridge term for trolls from the age of hatching to the age of 110.
Eggs: 30 years to hatch from a birthstone, varies depending on species of troll.
Hatchlings/Whelplings: (Age 0-20) These trolls are babies! At age 3 they start to understand language, but most hatchlings don't begin speaking until around 10 years. They begin potty-training around 16 yrs. This is a time where young trolls bond with family, become familiar with scents and body language, and sleep a lot.
Whelps: (Age 20-100) This is the human equivalent of the toddler stage! Whelps at this age master the use of language, improve motor control, and learn about the world around them. Some whelps will begin to read around this age, or be taught basic combat, but mostly will be play fighting and familiarizing themselves with understanding things around them.
The second category is younglings. Youngling is a bridge term for trolls from the age of 110 to the age of 500.
Cubs/pups/calfs: (Age 100-300) This is the human equivalent of ages 4-10. They are broadly referred to as younglings. Trolls at this age will be doing a lot of playfighting, a lot of learning, and a lot of exploring. This where more formal education comes in, mostly from parents but occasionally from another troll. Cubs will be introduced to a few weapons under careful supervision and instruction. They also may learn a trade under a trusted friend or family member. This is the time to learn about culture, history, and purpose.
Elverlings/Eftlings: (Age 300-350) This is the human equivalent of 10-13 year olds. Trolls at this age will begin training a bit more seriously. They will learn more combat, learn the ins-and-outs of troll law and tradition, and learn a trade. Trolls this age will be able to explore more outside their home, but still under the eye of a guardian. They will also take a lot more responsibility in the care of their homes, sometimes more than their parents.
Elvers/Epochlings: (Age 350-450) This is the human equivalent of a teenager (13-18). Trolls this age might begin working, will become a master of at least one weapon, will become knowledgeable on most of troll history/tradition/laws, and will explore outside the home more independently. It's acceptable for trolls around this age to start drinking glug, getting in fights, and deciding what profession they want to choose. It's a time for moving more independently in the world while still having the guidance of their parents. Visiting other troll dwellings is not uncommon in this time. Many trolls will experience romantic feelings around this time as well. Trolls around this age are also permitted to learn about magic if they wish under the guidance of an elder.
Epoch: (Age 450-500) This is the human equivalent of an older teen (18-20). Trolls this age will start getting tattoos, perhaps move out of home, and dedicate themselves to a profession. It is acceptable for trolls this age to have a bond-mate, but not children. Trolls this age can learn more about magic if they wish, but are not permitted to learn how to use it. This is a celebratory time for young trolls, a big developmental marker. Trolls at this age will probably master a craft they're learning, or become highly skilled at something or another. They also have full independence from their parents. It's a transitional time, and many young trolls will have doubts or insecurities.
The third and final category is adulthood! This includes trolls from 500-8000 years old.
Young Adults: (Age 500-1000) This is the human equivalent of 20-25 year olds. Trolls this age are expected to contribute to society, work hard, protect their dwellings, respect their elders, etc. They don't get a lot of respect due to their age. Many trolls around this time take up fighting as a pastime, but it really is seen as a time to buckle down and work. Some trolls at this age will move cities, or become nomadic. Exploring is natural at this age, if not completely encouraged. Calling trolls this age a youngling is a major snub.
Adults: (Age 1000-2250) This is the human equivalent of 25-30 years. Trolls at this age are known for being workers, protectors, or explorers. It is technically socially acceptable to have children at this age, but is often frowned upon by older trolls. Most trolls by this time will have settled into the role they picked in society, and are thriving. Those who have not are looked down on. Trolls this age are permitted to be more active in political and social affairs, but mostly as muscle for older and more experienced trolls. If a troll is going to find a bond-mate, most will do it by the end of this age.
Respectable Adults: (Age 2250-4000) The human equivalent of 30-45. Trolls this age are respected and well established in their communities. They are masters of their crafts and teachers to younger trolls. Being politically active is encouraged. It is acceptable to have a family at this point in a troll's life. If a troll at this age comes up with a new idea, it will likely be considered. Being a leader in combat at this age is not uncommon. These trolls make large impacts on their communities.
'Middle' Aged: (Age 4000-6000) Human equivalent of 45-75. Trolls don't really have a separate term for this age group, but trolls this age are especially respected and revered. Many trolls are felled before this time, so their wisdom is seen as unique and important. Trolls this age may start winding down. They may take up calmer hobbies, or focus more on social aspects of society. Learning magic is not uncommon at this age. Being taught by these trolls is a big deal. These trolls are mentors, pillars of their community, leaders.
Elders: (Age 6000-8000) Human equivalent of 75-100 years. These trolls are ancient and highly respected. Living that long is not an easy feat. These trolls will often be in charge of their communities, or at least have a large say in social matters. Trolls this age don't participate in much combat, but will occasionally teach it. Being taught by a troll this age is a high honor. These trolls will often master magic, and finish writing books. Trolls this age don’t participate in combat, but may teach it. At around 7500, elders will begin the process of dying. If they die naturally, they will leave the beginning of a heartstone behind. That is not where heartstones originate from, though.
Callista is in her Epoch, and was taken around the age 125 years, but she doesn't really have a good grip on how old she was. She's been in the dungeons for around 325 years, making her one of the first trolls captured! It was really hard on her since she was so young, but there was a certain someone watching out for her. Someone had to teach her how to make armour, after all! Most trolls assume Jim is an Epoch or Elver, but he smells way younger, which is super confusing to them.
WHOO that was a long one, hopefully it makes sense??

Homebrew Beastfolk
As some of the people who followed me over from turtlessuggest may know, when I started doing these animal class lists, I also expressed a desire to homebrew a few beastfolk races for D&D 5th edition based around some of the lists I’d done. I got through the deer-like Hindfolk and the serpentine Ophidians (the latter of which quickly proved redundant in the face of the Naga from one of the Plane Shift books), but I got pretty quickly burned out due to the structure I’d set for myself. I also wondered if I should even include things like that when they might be diluting the purpose of the blog.
Now that I have something more focused, I think I’m gonna bring it back. I still have my old notes, and I’ve added a few new names to the list that I’m actually pretty excited about.
Those that are on my to do list and those class lists they’re based on include:
Gliomach (marine crustacean), Eftling (salamander), Cetan (whale and dolphin), Carkhan (shark), Papilio (butterfly and moth), Formican (ant), Ursan (bear), Api (bee), Aranean (spider), Krakenborn (cephalopod), Snigill (snail and slug), Chiropteran (bat), Khamai (chameleon), Suuidan (domestic pig), Sifaak (lemur), Talpan (mole), Mustelan (weasel), Mungisa (mongoose), and Vettigan (penguin).
I’m not sure how fast these’ll get made, but I think by drafting individual entries I’ve made it easier on myself to work on the ones that I have more developed in my head.

  I have married into a Dutch family, which has meant oodles of hours travelling around Holland.
Holland is on the western coast of the Netherlands.  We have traveled to the two Dutch provinces the North and South of Holland
  The people of Holland found themselves living in an unstable, watery environment. Behind the sand dunes on the coast of the Netherlands a high peat plateau had grown, forming a natural protection against the sea. Much of the area was marsh and bog.
By the tenth century the inhabitants set about cultivating this land by draining it. However, the drainage resulted in extreme soil shrinkage, lowering the surface of the land by up to fifteen meters (49 feet).
We have seen all the stereotypical images of Holland with their rainbows of tulips, unique windmills, handmade clogs and cheese.
Its definitely worth the travel.
(one of the photos shows a heron walking in the fish shop !!) Love this !!   They other one is Hansel and Gretel house in Eftling (my favorite tourist destination in the world !)
Our trip to the Netherlands I have married into a Dutch family, which has meant oodles of hours travelling around Holland.
