If I had dollar each time Charles Dance played rich intelligent man who is horrible father to his second son and gets killed by said second son, I would have two dollars. Which isn't much but it's still weird it happened twice.

Listen they barely interact face to face but Adam Warlock and Mistress Death have the funniest dynamic of all time actually.

[…] the one thing that must never come between two people who have offered each other love is a lie.

The Magus & The Oracle
or, my yearly ZineMonth breakdown waiting to happen
Tumblr media
Here we are! I can finally spill the beans on what I'm working on for ZineMonth 2024. This year NessunDove is joining forces with award-winning designer @momatoes for the first-ever English print of The Magus, the solo ttrpg about pathos, arcana, calamity, and the infinite loneliness of power... Plus a brand-new addition in the form of The Oracle: a 78-card inspiration deck designed to provide visual and storytelling prompts for The Magus, ttrpg systems, and all acts of storytelling.
I was overjoyed to work on the Italian edition of Magus back in 2021, and it was the first ever print run of the game. Now it's time for a new and improved English edition, with a new layout and updated rules that keep The Magus's narrative-driven crunch intact but supplement it with a new source of endless inspiration.
If you're in the mood to tell the tragic story of a sorcerer's quest for arcane mastery, do follow the pre-launch page on Kickstarter and help keep my anxiety at bay by making number go up.

Listen.... Lilith and the Magus got a lot in common. So that’s the only explanation that you get.

So, I did the favourite character bingo, and I loved the picture I found to use for the Magus. I said that he looked like someone who was having memes explained to him and I just had to do a comic of it.

I acquired expensive habits and affected manners. I got a third-class degree and a first-class illusion: that I was a poet. But nothing could have been less poetic than my seeing- through-all boredom with life in general and with making a living in particular. I was too green to know that all cynicism masks a failure to cope—an impotence, in short; and that to despise all effort is the greatest effort of all. But I did absorb a small dose of one permanently useful thing, Oxford’s greatest gift to civilized life: Socratic honesty. It showed me, very intermittently, that it it is not enough to revolt against one’s past. One day I was outrageously bitter among some friends about the Army; back in my own rooms later it suddenly struck me that just because I said with impunity things that would have apoplexed my dead father, I was still no less under his influence. The truth was I was not a cynic by nature; only by revolt. I had got away from what I hated, but I hadn't found where I loved, and so I pretended that there was nowhere to love. the magus - john fowles
