some days i think to myself about the wasted potential that was essek criticalrole and feel a headache form behind my eyes.

#personal #what do you MEAN that this EXTREMELY SHADY EXTREMELY AMORAL character turned into THAT #he committed TREASON to further his experimentation #he was the PRIME example of a wizard corrupted by his thirst for knowledge #he was on track to become such an interesting villain and he NEVER GOT THAT CHANCE #i'm not upset about his redemption arc. i enjoy a happy ending. #i just feel like he never got the chance to be anything else other than your friendly neighborhood uber driver #imagine his cover being blown and him deciding to put his foot down on the side of evil #how interesting that would've been #SIGHS......

[anxiously-sidequesting]

Im not saying the Wizard should totally become a full on villain or anything but it they ended up popping the fuck out of Ambrose or someone else after a passive aggressive/jealous/fearful comment or rumor about them, that would be Acceptable actually :)

#the AUDACITY of the muthafuckahs to talk about US like THAT BRO?????? #'i hear the wizard danced on xilbalba and spread shadow magic and Evil and Satan across the universe' how about i kick ur ass #this post is also. for the record. /lh ADSGSJ #reading stormbreaker101's tags had me CRYING BECAUSE ITS TRUE!!!! THE WIZARD IS NO LONGER A PERSON THEY ARE A MYTH #A LEGEND IN A BAD WAY #we love a story about an innocent and defenseless person unfairly and suddenly thrusted into an isolating position that drives away- #everyone around them and slowly corrupts their mental health :))))) #wizard101 #w101 #wiz101 #text post

You know I don’t like the “Gale was groomed by Mystra” fanon narrative for so many reasons I can’t even go through them all but let’s set those aside for now and say: there’s already a clear grooming narrative in BG3 canon and it’s WYLL’S STORYLINE… you don’t have to make shit up and actively take away from Gale’s character and story…

#mags babs #it’s always sunny in baldurs gate #clutches my head #I’m not even a mystra fan I’m a KNOWN wizard h8r but I stg the fandom loves to make her like. the villain of gales story? #HE doesn’t even make her to be the villain in his story until you go down the bad ending path 😭 #on the OTHER HAND wyll’s story is literally about him being forced to rely on an evil entity intent only to corrupt him and he made that #pact at SEVENTEEN under extreme duress #on this note Larian I will launch myself at you at terminal velocity for that Christmas skit

[sesamenom]

alright you’ve been extremely extremely kind and indulgent to me about my oc and i cannot possibly thank you enough <333333 so MY turn now to ask YOU about YOURS. please tell me about maglor’s distant granddaughter who is also your bbeg?? .w. or about the chatty hobbits i would very VERY much love to hear about both!!!

~ @nelyoslegalteam, reporting from main <3

(long post, sorry for the random people stumbling upon this lol)

so I'm the dm for the chatty hobbits campaign and essentially it's set in a beleriand-adjacent continent, but with a few extra races and stuff. of the founders of the original settlements, the king of elende (the elf kingdom) is Gil-galad's (invented for the campaign) twin brother Finellach/Finwain. originally he was inspired by the fact that gil galad has a ton of names but only uses ereinion/gil, so I just invented a new character and gave him half the names. I headcanon gil galad as maglor's son, so finwain is in universe maglor's son (left at the havens with gil bc his wife divorced him for kinslaying and his kingdom, being next door neighbors with morgoth, is far too dangerous for small children).

Anyways, his descendant Elinyel (also known as aramire or elinnor) is the current queen of Elende! she's an evil fire-themed bard who is extremely feanorian in all the worst ways - her actual kingdom prospered under her reign, but she just does not care about everyone else as long as she's protecting her people. There were some tensions with one of the major kingdoms to the north (conflict over unclaimed territory between the kingdoms and some tariff stuff), so instead of risking the other kingdom starting a war and hurting her people, she just preemptively invaded it and started burned all the border territories to the ground.

her actual coronation was pretty weird- so she's the second child, but her older sister was born in wartime and there's a general belief in elende that children of peacetime make better rulers, so Elinyel was chosen as her family's heir. her grandfather (the crown prince of his generation) died defending Elende in one of the major wars, but his younger brother and two young kids survived. there's a whole feud between their houses because the brother chose to retain the kingship even after the kids were old enough to take the throne. anyways, two generations later Elinyel killed her cousin Arendil (the previous king of Elende) over a dispute about the legitimacy of his house (and what she believed to be a dishonoring of her grandparents' sacrifice) and took the throne.

obviously she has many Issues. arendil also has two surviving kids who are now essentially trying to stop her from murdering all their neighbors in proactive defense of her people.

however, when she first ascended she recruited her friend group as her elite guard/vassals of the kingdom. (aka the other bosses in the storyline). so it escalated to a war between her forces and the children of arendil, which ultimately culminated in her beloved sister being killed by one of arendil's children. this in turn led to her having basically a massive mental breakdown and feeling like she failed to protect her loved ones (exacerbated by some of her other friends being killed in battles she led). a normal person might decide this is was kind of her fault for starting a war and putting her friends in charge of the army. instead she decided she needed to destroy everyone who could ever potentially pose a threat. which is, in her eyes, literally everyone on the continent (except for her kingdom, of course).

so now she is at war with absolutely everyone of all factions! She is also somehow winning by virtue of Song almost on the level of maglor himself, and ten (now six) also incredibly powerful friends. Anyways, she has decided that the best way to wipe out the continent (except her kingdom) and start fresh is to literally find an ancient lost stone that can break the Doors of Night, summon Morgoth himself, and start the Dagorath. obviously this will Not go well for anyone at all if she succeeds, but she is on a full-on rampage and genuinely believes she (plus friends) can protect her kingdom from Morgoth's army while he wipes out everyone else.

Here's some old art of her btw!

And some slightly more recent unfinished art of her and the Evil Friend Group from when they were younger:

and here's (L-R) her cousin who is the 3rd boss, Elinyel, and her sister from before the war!

#asks #THANK YOU FOR THIS BTW #i only have 1 friend irl who plays dnd and is also not affiliated with the campaign #and they aren't a silm person #so i cannot talk w anyone irl about the Lore #one of the few kingdoms who could really oppose her is the magic one #bc max level wizards might as well be ainur and the monarch of the magic kingdom is Very Powerful #however. said monarch is also the twin sibling of one of elinyel's friends #(who is also an evil lich now and also maybe dating a diff friend who is an evil sorceror? not sure of details yet) #so the super powerful battlemage monarch is remaining Politically Neutral so they don't have to fight their literal evil twin #currently the party is level 6 and just defeated the very-weakened wraith of one of the friends #she was a druid but sort of decayed when she was corrupted and was kidnapping untrained/low level sorcs as servants to siphon power from #and also living in the Grove of Resurrection in order to stay intact #i forgot her dialogue while running the battle so while i looked through my docs i just had her say 'loading please wait' lol #also more chatty hobbit stuff #the grove is a huge grassy area with a walking tree in the middle #so the whole thing is constantly roaming aroudn #the wraith-druid had her castle built on it so she could have a moving castle that also heals her #the grassy part will resurrect any dead thing put on it #for the battle they had to drag her off the grass in order to kill her #technically shes been dead for some years but is surviving via constant contact w the grove #the hobbit (Shade) is from the Alder family who has historically been the guardians of the grove #he discovered he could talk to the tree in the middle and immediately started trying to figure out a way he could use the grove to #clone one of the party members #the tree does not approve of intentionally cutting off people's arms to see if it regenerates into a clone lol #oh! and they found anglachel in the grove. the dragonborn monk wants to keep it

[liorlen]

I kinda like the whole sorcerer!gale idea. I don’t have it as a headcanon bc, personally, I just think he was a super fucking nerd as a kid and decided reading magic textbooks was fun so he ended up casting spells quite early and not by accident like a magical bloodline sorc would (I think??).

But I like thinking of a sorc!gale au. It’s really funny and even a bit sad. I genuinely don’t know how someone with a sorcerer bloodline who trains as a wizard would work. I’d think his bloodline would either be very weak or he simply doesn’t have the charisma to control the sorc magic (sorry gale. your charisma is NOT high enough to multiclass into sorc).

#sorc gale au I think maybe he accidentally taps into sorc magic post orb/worm because the orb maybe cuts him off from his wizard training #in some way #and the magic feels different bc it’s sorc magic but he thinks it’s because the orb has permanently corrupted #and changed his ability to channel the weave #and he’s quite a bit weaker not only because of the orb consuming his wizard abilities but because #he never trained his sorcerer abilities #like an artist who can draw in pencil trying to learn how to paint #it’s a different skill set #I also like the alternative idea that the sorcerer magic had been supplementing him the entire time #but the orb consumed it #but that kind of downplays how powerful a wizard who properly studied can be I think #like ‘oh he was only a prodigy because he had sorc magic’ I think if it were that obvious he would have known #whereas if his bloodline was too weak to really be obvious early on and he just focuses on wizardry because he likes it #then it makes more sense to me #also. storm sorcery but post orb/worm wild magic #Len text

[justsalpals]

if I bat my eyelashes and ask real nicely can I pretty please have an Ame corruption arc?

come onnn, you've got the coven of the wicked right there and it would be such a shame not to use it 🥺

I just think she deserves to go a little batshit, as a treat

#it's probably more likely that one of her coven sisters will turn wicked. but I really like the thought anyway. #and am having a ball thinking about what it would take to get her there #plus it would be a fun subversion of how right out of the gate everyone expected a SUVI corruption arc #worlds beyond number #the wizard the witch and the wild one #ame the witch

Nothing, Something, Everything

Figured I'd finally figure out how the hell to draw Nora, Kiyom (the Nothing in my AU, it never got a chance to eat the Old One and become Dasein so it's an entirely new character now), and the Divine Paradox.

please don't ask me to draw the Paradox ever again. girl why are you so ARMOR.

In Tulips of Time since Claire has the shard and she's not a troll, what will it do to her when they return to the future?

The shard preys on fear, it latches onto whoever it’s infecting’s insecurity and internalization, and in turn makes that worse, just a big bucket of dark magic poisoning, at least that’s what I’m going with and boy howdy does Claire have a lot of that.

While they’re in the past Claire’s biggest fear starts off as becoming Morgana, and worrying about the darkness taking over, because who she meets in the past is not the same woman that tried to literally tear apart the world for the Eternal night, if Morgana can fall that far who’s to say she can’t either or further? However by the time they get back to the future it has grown out of simply becoming Morgana, but I can’t spoil all the fun.

So what Claire becomes when she pushes the shard into her heart will be a-lot worse than just a human fueled by dark magic.

#sorry I can’t give much of a concrete answer #but #like I’m talking unrecognizable in most lengths because by then that’s how far she thinks she’s lost #I mean Jim wasn’t really recognizeable at all #he just became a big troll #which could have been better done because the whole shard plot was just to turn him human and nothing else really #I wish they’d done something with a literal shard of dark magic that can infect and corrupt people #not to mention the trauma that would cause #trollhunters #tales of arcadia #toa #asks #claire nuñez #wizards #tulips of time

oh I'm down bad

Dexon; Dark Urge, Talos War Cleric with a chaotic streak that unfortunately feeds the impulses. Only keeps his party alive because they're more useful breathing. I don't think a romance would be good for anyone

Therius; Vengeance Paladin, blunt and sometimes stern but with a soft spot for the little guys. Not above intimidating people to get the right thing done. Will eventually fall for Astarion once they both open up more

Aava; College of Lore Bard, quick to soothe tempers but slow to trust. She's carrying more blackmail than she'll ever admit, and will use it to keep herself safe and alive. Somehow finds herself already crushing on Karlach despite her own innate paranoia

I do plan on making at least 2 more: a dragonborn Dark Urge who will actually fight to be good, and a gnome for the sake of doing the 12 multi-classes and all the silly/stupid options.

But now back to Elamrael!

#bg3 #baldur's gate 3 #and now to come up with tags for them again #Dexon the Durge #Paladin Therius #Aava - keeper of secrets #I ran to get karlach as soon as possible and had the fun of wyll bursting into camp #didn't know that was an option #aava so far has been the one cause the most tension #she'll call people out asking why she should trust them #she aint got time for most people's shit she's got a worm to get rid of #therius will probably be the one who uses the worm the most? #he's willing to corrupt himself a little for the sake of power #if it means taking out the big bad will be easier #outside of Dexon of course he's going all in #he's gonna get lost in the sauce as much as the game will let me #gale's hand excluded #that was upsetting #but now that the babies in my head all have save files it's back to ela and his wizard man #/rambling #rindemption.png #photo of: dexon #photo of: therius #photo of: aava #about the oc: dexon #about the oc: therius #about the oc: aava

I'll say it as many times as it needs to be said. There is absolutely miniscule actual harm that comes from engaging with Harry Potter in 2024. JK Rowling does not need money. Anything sent her way is less than a rounding error. And the book series was literally EVERYWHERE in the 90s and 2000s. Like it or not, it DID impact a whole generation of people - pretending that never happened is completely absurd, if not outright irresponsible. It happened. It's just a fact. Harry Potter is mainstream. There is nothing that can be done to 'promote' it. It's already there.

What all this obsession with HP on tumblr is about? An easy way to smugly define Good People from Bad People. Because if you *really* cared about trans people enough, you'd hate everything associated with Harry Potter. Regardless of how much you adored it when you were 8 and went to Harry Potter parties with your family all dressed up quoting book lines at one another in your most precious childhood memories because for once your special interest actually aligned with the people closest to you. No, all those positive associations should have been deleted instantly. If you *cared enough*, it would just *happen*.

Which is why a whole slew of people who previously had earnestly reblogged posts about Moral OCD and how bad tumblr can be about it were suddenly cackling about how buying Hogwarts Legacy was comparable to *refusing to throw The One Ring into Mordor, starting a war that would kill millions.* And how donating to a pro-trans charity (an act that would have VASTLY more impact than aforementioned rounding error) is comparable to 'donating to a pro-elf charity' in the wake of that.

Because tumblr doesn't actually give a shit about autistics or OCD sufferers. When we complain about stuff that they also dislike, they proudly reblog that and rage in the notes about how selfish and cruel and Individualist those other people on tumblr are!!! But the *second* they get to paint themselves as the ones with '''''good thoughts and feelings'''''' they take it, and make up posts about how HP likers 'believe they're the main character and everything should revolve around them.'

Is it actually about whether something causes harm? Or is it about dividing the world into Inherently Good People and Inherently Bad People? Is it actually about doing real good for the community and making the world a better place? Or is it about shaming people with the Wrong Emotions until they fucking hate themselves and spend hours upon hours ruminating on end trying to change themselves because their inability to let go of positive Harry Potter feelings is OBVIOUSLY evidence of a truly inescapably evil and cruel and wretched identity that the world would be better off without?

Which is it, actually? When it actually feels a little bit good to feel like you're on the Right Side of all of this, for once?

#cant fucking believe im doing this to myself on the day before his birthday #im gonna have to stay up til 12:30 tonight #if im STILL obsessing over this shit then Im gonna start demanding recompense #dont donate to ocd charities (do they even exist lmfao) just give $20 to someone w ocd every time you make a Stern Post abt hp '''promoters #.. #hp for ts #god no fucking offence but this all is the ACTUALLY terminally online bullshit #do you know the library I work at has Harry Potter posters/displays etc. up??? #stocks plenty of 'wizarding world crochet' books and the like??? #99.999% of the world barely knows what jkr is doing #and the rest just think 'wow she's awful' (or whatever else) and dont connect that to hp at all #its only on certain internet spaces that this 'engage with HP = immediate and inescapable corruption by the devil' mentality exists #hell even the idea that anyone with something HP related is trying to signal terfism or whatever #i dont doubt that some ppl TRY that but. it doesnt work lmfao. #not once has my aunt thought 'oh I better remove my Hermione keychain or someone will think I hate trans people' #that is literally terminally online brainrot!!! real people do not think that way!!!!!!!!!!!!

Gem was left powerless.

She'd tried to save Shrub, because she was sure there was a good Shrub in there, somewhere in there. She wants to kick herself thinking about how obvious the signs were. Shrub had been the reason the corruption ended up in her empire! How in the world could she not have connected the dots sooner??

Whatever. No use beating herself up about it now. She needs to get out of here.

The room he'd stuck her in was pretty small. All black concrete, no details whatsoever. Great. Very helpful.

There was the way he had entered and exited, but she was on the other side of the small room, and he'd cast some sort of spell or dark magic thing to weaken her to the point she could barely lift her head. She just sit slouched against the wall, trying to figure out what to do.

The dark magic he put on her was also messing with her concentration . Any time she tried to cast a spell she somehow lost focus, and there's no way that's by accident. She's normally really good at not losing focus.

So for now, she was powerless. But the dark magic would have to wear off eventually. And then she'd have the strength to find a way out of here.

But no matter what, she was going to be strong, and get out. She wouldn't fall prey to whatever the demon is planning to do with her, and then once she's out she will free Shrub and then together they'll take Xornoth down.

And then the wall shifts, and the demon steps in with a grin.

"Hello, wizard."

i know im the dumb bitch that's first thought to what fic i can write off a media is either a soulmate au or a daemon au BUT

I'm reading a harry potter fanfic (dont look at me like that 1) its a crossover and 2)fanfics can just as easily be a ceremony where we dance around a fire thats burning source material okay) and i mean

tbf i didnt CHECK but has anyone considered that a person's animagi form is just what their daemon would be? cuz the mc of this fic is about to realize that the weird-ass dog he's seen around campus is an animagus and i was like

you know, when ur writing a daemon au, one staple is that a trait for people with dog daemons is loyalty. so i thought it was kinda funny that someone who's a dog animagus was framed for disloyalty and all that

then i thought of a daemon au where there's like a whole faction of people STILL, twelve years later, debating whether sirius black was REALLY guilty. because he has a dog daemon, so there's no way he'd betray his BEST FRIENDS, who he was LOYAL to, right? ('in fact' some of that faction would mutter to each other 'that action far better befits the rat daemon whose death he was accused of' conspiracy theorists who?)

or a group thats adjacent to THEM who insist he was playing a long con from the beginning: he was planning to serve voldemort from the get-go, so he PRETENDED to have his daemon settle as a dog in order to have an in with the Order of the Phoenix, who would obviously trust someone with a dog daemon. his daemon isnt ACTUALLY a dog, the claim.

but one thing i hate about writing daemon aus is that u have to come up with a daemon for EVERYONE and then NAME them all, which i hate, so this is an open offer to anyone who actually wants to write it

i mean i guess i could write a tiny little thing??? i dunno- if i actually wrote this it would ONLY have this stuff in it so idk if it would be worth writing

(i could see conspiracy theorist parvarti or lavender tho- divintation fanatics they are 🤔)

#harry potter #fanfiction #daemon au #like i mean just saying #my favorite part about writing daemon aus is thinking on how making them a thing would change or effect the setting #like a dungeon crawler or a regency setting (ask me about those if u want ;) ) #so like thered def be some wizards who are essentially psychologists just for majoring in daemon form meanings and What They Say About You #and you could make voldemort looking like a snake in his new body make actual SENSE #cuz you could make his daemon a snake and it makes more sense that his body will take on features of his soul #hell you could make nagini his daemon and say that instead of her being a horcrux shes literally just a piece of his soul in a different wa #it would show how corrupted his soul really is for having 6/7 horcruxes when he lives past his DAEMON getting decapitated #or i guess i mean- maybe his daemon died when he tried to kill harry but when he tried making nagini a horcrux #she basically became his new daemon? or some weird hybrid? idk artistic liberties and all that #and then while fawkes's lament at dumbledore's funeral was 'touching' and all that u could makes fawkes HIS daemon and they both die #not like fawkes has any story relevance after dumbedore's death anyway #idk theres options!
