Ask me what I did for an hour and a half after dinner with friends on a Friday? I will tell you now...spent that time drawing Mark Strong as Sir Godfrey in the Crowe Robin Hood film. Depicting the ending we all deserved and I think he would have liked it.

All cropped which is a shame. I spent some real time on...lower parts especially the derriere.

This is supposed to be Mark Strong but I always alter real people faces and in this case didn't have a ref for him, just got right to it. Have to look abit close to see details.

The link contains an animated gif and more versions.

This is a meta on Our Flag Means Death episode 5: The Best Revenge Is Dressing Well, Sir Godfrey Thornrose, The scene where he calls Ed a donkey, and so called "race science."

It has come to my attention that some of you apparently do not know what a phrenologist is.

*a note: I'm going to for the purposes of this assume that the guy played by Jeff Lorch is sir Godfrey Thornrose, I do not know this for certain but in my opinion even if he is not Thornrose the same principles still apply to him for reasons I will discuss in this meta.

So lets recap the scenes I want to touch on. At the beginning of episode 5 Stede is teaching Ed how to identify rich people cutlery like they're Barney Thompson and Vivian Ward in pretty woman. Stede bitches at Thornrose for not having enough spoons for Stede's liking. Thornrose responds "My apologies, I hadn't imagined we'd be hosting your kind."

Ed responds "My kind, what kind"

to which Godfrey responds "A rich donkey is still a donkey."

Ed then proceeds to scream at him and then orders Fang to skin him with a snail fork before throwing him overboard. To which Fang presumably responds by either skinning him with a normal skinning implement or forgoing the skinning step and just throwing him overboard, because who tf has time to skin a man with a snail fork.

I've seen some dogshit takes on this scene. I've seen it treated as evidence that Ed is exceptionally violent or abusive or has mood swings or anger issues or whatever bullshit. And I... Do Not Agree. You'll see why.

The next scene I want us to have in our back pocket is the first couple scenes with Gabriel and Antionette. When Gabriel and Antionette introduce themselves to Ed and Stede they reveal that Sir Godfrey Thornrose is a quote "Master Phrenologist." Stede is then expected to study Antionette's head. When he does he introduces his fake craft as "Phrenology, which is the study of the human head." He then takes a wild guess as to Antionette's heritage based on her skull lumps.

Content warning for like real old school racism ahead.

The reason Stede goes for the heritage is because Phrenology is a pseudoscience closely linked to other contemporary race science of the time. It was the idea that bumps on your head, thought to be caused by the pressure of the brain, could be used to identify your personality traits.

Phrenology gets really fucking racist, really fucking fast. Phrenology was used as proof that the white race was superior to other races, and as a justification for slavery and eugenics. Eugenics is the idea that you can improve society through breeding out "bad genes", which is almost universally popular among all types of racists, but the Nazis were big fans of it and there's a direct through line between the race scientists in the 1700s who were into phrenology and modern hate groups and neo nazis. I wanted to use an image here as an example of racist phrenology texts, but it's rough and I don't want to make a cut so I'm just going to link to the wordpress anthropology article I found the picture in, it's sourced and an alright place to start if you're into further reading.

With this information, I would like to use another example, that is relevant to the ethnicities in contention. A French physician who attracted huge crowds with his phrenology lectures, François-Joseph-Victor Broussais, once claimed that Maori people (as well as indigenous Australians) could never become civilized since he claimed they had no cerebral organ for producing great artists.

This is the context in which we need to understand the exchange between Ed and the French captain. I've seen some people claim it's about class and not about race, but Thornrose acknowledges Ed's wealth when he says a rich donkey is still a donkey. It doesn't matter to a man like Thornrose what Ed does or how rich he is or how well he can learn his fucking forks, he's still akin to an animal in this skull molesting freak's racist little mind. If a phrenologist, or even someone who's rubbing elbows with a phrenologist, calls a man of color a donkey they're clearly saying he's an uncivilized animal based on the shape of his face. That's how racists operate.

And Sir Godfrey Thornrose is not just any old racist, he's a racist spreading his ideology to other people, convincing them that people like Ed are inferior, that people like him should be subjugated by white people. He is clocking in for his shift at the racism factory creating more racists.

So basically what I'm saying is Ed should skin him, no quarter for genocidal maniacs. Basically I can tell you're either racist sympathetic or talking out of your ass if you think French captain was fucked up. It was antifascist direct action and I don't want to hear another word about it. I personally believe the only thing you can't come back from is death in terms of being a better person. I also believe that there are situations in which killing someone is more or less fine and you're never gonna catch me feeling bad for a fucking phrenologist when he compares an indigenous pirate to an animal and the pirate responds by doing what pirates do.

Killing Godfrey was based.

Random 20

Alright folks time for another weird ramblings of a loyal grafthead, talking more about Godrick's strength capabilities. This one is me wondering how would he handle lifting up his fellow Demigods and few other bosses, just a silly idea in my head but let's see what I think.

—-—-—-—-—-—-—-—-—-—-—-—-—-—-—-—-—

Grafted Scion- hmm ok starting off with a weird one, would probably be a kinda messy to hold. If it were to be held in arms it would need to ball up kinda, like tuck in it's limbs under it's cloak for easier handling. Now if it were on his back it can just holding onto him without him doing a single thing, maybe it would actually blend in with him like it's apart of him. He needs to hold his spider kids for proper bonding. 7/10

Margit/Morgott- easy carry, able to walk around carrying him without much issue. Easy weither holding like a baby or carrying him on his back. Tail would probably be the the way a bit, probably shouldn't touch it. 8/10

Rennela- with her bubble she's as light as a feather, not much surface area plus it floats so would need to wrap longest arm around it to keep secure. w/o bubble she's also an easy carry, very light and thin so holding her wouldn't be an issue, walking isn't a problem either weither she in arms or on back. Not much issue except for the bubble 7/10

Radahn- alright so this man is a beefcake, towering over Godrick few a couple of feet so this will require some concentration. Being held in arms would be near impossible, would need to carry him upon shoulders. Walking would be a great struggle, it could be possible but it would be very slow. This would be 10 times easier with Radahn's gravity magic to make himself lighter, allowing for easy mobility. But even when made lighter his large size restricts him to being on shoulders. Leonard would approve 5/10

Ranni- very small doll lady, weights just about nothing so easy weither held like baby or on back. Not really any issues, maybe her hat but I doubt it 10/10

Rykard- a very difficult carry, mainly for the fact Rykard is a giant monstrous serpent. The only way Godrick could effectively "carry" Rykard is by holding him by his snake head and slowly dragging his body behind, would be like Godrick making his slither. Very difficult and heavy process 4/10

Fire Giant- alright this is just ridiculous, Godrick has no way of lifting up this skyscraper of a giant. Closest thing to "lifting" this thing is either it's ripped off foot or a limp head. But this isn't gonna happen, impossible 1/10

Malenia- back to an easy carry, a smelly one but easy. So Malenia is about double the size of a Tarnished and is very fast so probably pretty light for Godrick to carry. Weither she's held like a baby or riding on his back doesn't matter, her goddess form may be a bit annoying to hold with the large wings and constant flow of butterflies. But the wings could be wrapped around her and make her cradled in a burrito of her own wings. If prosthetics were removed then she'd be even lighten and easier than before. Just hope she doesn't explode 8/10

Godskin Apostle- Stretchy tall twig, yet another simple hold weither in arms or on back. For fun if stretched Godrick could wear him like a fur scarf. Good snake 10/10

Godskin Noble- Big fat marshmallow, ok this one will require some elbow grease. Should be possible weither being carried by arms or on back but with extra weight and larger size walk will be difficult. Also if the noble inflates handling with be more difficult. Nice tail tho 6.5/10

Maliketh- Scary big dog knight, so for size he's pretty hefty so some strength will be required to hold him. If needed he can also be carried on Godrick's back as well and thanks to his armor it should allow spots for easier grips for supports. Might bite or scratch 8.5/10

Gideon- Hold the know-it-all like an ice cream cone, spoon feed him knowledge so he doesn't judge you. Jokes aside pretty easy hold like Ranni 10/10

Godfrey- alright this Elden Lord is pretty hefty, thanks to his body being pure muscle he's gonna be pretty damn heavy. Godrick would need to focus hard to not disappoint the great Godfrey, it would be difficult yes but not impossible. Godrick would want to impress Godfrey and show his worth in strength, this may motivate him to hold Godfrey for a long period of time before collapsing. Serosh is ghost so he wouldn't get in the way 7/10

Radagon/Marika- now THIS Elden Lord (and Queen) is much smaller and a bit broken so carrying will be no problem. The cracks in the body should give great handling while carrying. Weither it's Radagon or Marika shouldn't matter tho he would probably be more careful with Marika. Elden Ring is pretty to look at 9/10

Elden Beast- Finally God, hmmm pretty large being so picking up would be extremely difficult. So maybe Godrick can drag it by it's head or it's tail wrapped around him like a rope. Would look ridiculous but he could probably drag God, thought it would take a bit unless the Elden Beast is somehow light as a feather. Slug may be slippery 5.5/10

—-—-—-—-—-—-—-—-—-—-—-—-—-—-—-—-—

This took a bit to think up but I'd say I'm happy with this very very random and weird list of Godrick carrying his family. I'll see what other weird lists I can come up with in the future, hope y'all enjoyed this one :>

Together forever [1/3]

We got such a gay drama on our last session, I HAD to draw them

I literally played as Godfrey, so i was like a PART of a gay drama. I liked it and i cried. Much. But they were finally set free together. Well, almost

Anywayyyyy, it's probably the first time EVER in my life that my favorite character is a man. Wild

Imagine you are Sir Godfrey Thornrose (he's probably dead, but for the sake of this post, let's say he survived the raid).

You're a world-renowned phrenologist and have been invited to a fancy party on the Caribbean Sea. On the way, the ship you're on gets invaded by pirates. Many, many people die or get maimed. They leave with your fancy clothes and the invite to the party. Also, for some reason, your personal library is completely replaced with different books.

You then hear that the party ended in a massive fire that killed nearly everyone on board. Some of the only people who escaped were the servants, an angry guy named Jeff, the prince of Egypt and you, who apparently started the fire in the first place by being an absolute bitch.

Poor Ismark 😔

In our Curse of Strahd game, he (while possessed by the ghost of Rahadin) and Godfrey took a nasty tumble down a chasm in the mountains. Our DM has told me that Godfrey, being a Revenant (and our fated ally), will eventually return to us, but he will now be in Ismark's body. In the meantime, he is trudging through the snow, on his way back to us. I am only sharing it here because my fellow party members are not on tumblr (as fas as I know) 🤫
