EMERGENCY: Let's Get A New Tablet.

So, what is the OGL and why are DnD creators thoroughly screwed?

Tumblr has not been doing a great job at talking about this, but:

With OneDnD, Wizards of the Coast has decided to update the Open Game License (OGL). Said license is what allowed people to create homebrew DnD content and sell it, and even larger companies to use certain sorts of content. Pathfinder, for example, is built on said OGL. This also allows streamers and artists to exist and benefit from said content.

With OneDnD (sometimes called “dnd 6e”), WOTC wants to create a much more restrictive OGL, which will, amongst other things:

Make WOTC take a cut for any DnD-related work (according to Kickstarter, a whole 25% of the benefits)

Let WOTC cancel any project related to DnD up to their discretion

Let WOTC take ANY content made based on their system, and re-sell it without crediting you, or giving you a single cent

And most importantly, revoke the old OGL, which will harm any company or game system that used it as a base, such as Pathfinder. And it means they GET ownership over any homebrew content you may have done for 5e in the past!

It’s important to note that OGLs are supposedly irrevocable. They were planning to use it for OneDnD initially, but they want to apply it retroactively to 5e, somehow. Which is illegal, but lawyers have mentioned there’s a chance they may get away with it given the wording.

This means that anything you make based on DnD (A homebrew item? A character drawing? Even music, according to them?), can get taken and used as they deem appropiate.

These news come from a leak of the OGL, which have been confirmed by multiple reputable sources (including Kickstarter, which has confirmed that WOTC already talked with them about this), and was planned to be released next week.

So, what can we do?

Speak against it. Share the word. Reblog this post. Let people know. Tumblr hasn’t been talking much about this matter, but it’s VERY important to let people know about what is WOTC bringing. 

Boycott them. Do not buy their products. Do not buy games with their IP. Do not watch their movie. CANCEL your DnD Beyond subscription. (Btw, they ARE planning to release more subscription services too!). They do not care about the community, but they care about the money. Make sure to speak through it. 

And maybe consider other TTRPG systems for the time being, Pathfinder’s Paizo has been much nicer to the community, their workers are unionized and are far more healthy overall

Hands down, your ocs are just wholesome and your style is amazing like-

Ok but what if…

Akelios was a land filled with some ancient magic with mythological creatures like elves and such. Vere once had this races as well but some seal makes it impossible to use magic and makes this creatures invisible to the common’s eye

What if captive prince was settled in a Forgotten realms- like world? Maybe it is a part of Faerun that has been cut off from the outside world?

Akelion population that is not human is accepted as normal, Damianos knows and talks this creature’s tongues and has some magic bases, also I picture him as very charmed by those creature’s costumes and is very beloved by them. Maybe this magic inhabitants played a role in Kastor’s defeat?

MaYbE Kastor, as the absolute asshole he is, commanded killed many of the magic folks, much like Nilfgaard in the Witcher.

Like imagine; Damianos has just arrived to a very old ruins, injured and Laurent almost dead bc ✨some shit✨and some fairies come to him to help and Laurent gets healed by them and just stands there speechless like ‘wtf??? Damen?? What is this??’

Maybe Laurent saw some of this creatures as a kid and the seal was created by some resentful mage to prevent the Regent from using magic?? Maybe??

I know very classical fantasy bui I WILL BE WRITING SOMETHING ABOUT THIS-

People are wondering if the piano player seen in the trailer is a skin of P with long hair. I want to point out that the piano player's physique looks a bit fuller than P, moreso like a fully grown adult (more on that later). And when you use the star fragment to summon a "spectre" in the demo, this long haired figure appears. So I do think it may be Gepetto's son.

Also, this semi-hidden dialogue when P does a gesture in front of Lady Antonia: "It suits you. For a moment there, you looked just like... Forgive me. I'm rambling."

There's also some dialogue I may have imagined where Lady Antonia or someone else also says something like, "Gepetto hasn't been the same since..." Since what? But I'm scrubbing through playthroughs and I can't find it again. Please let us know if you've experienced that line!

thinking about how erke (and later stowe as well) calls eivor "broga" (literally just "terror" in old norse) as an affectionate nickname and losing it actually

I just got punched by 3 spooky scary skeletons-

your icon punches you in the face do you survive

My theories for Lies of P.

Okay so I did some digging, nothing too extreme, but I looked up the original true story of Pinocchio and found some art that came with the story written in the late 1800s.

Pinocchio started as a talking piece of wood, and then was given to Mr. Geppeto. Geppeto dressed him up and told him if he wants to be apart of this world he has to go to school. Pinocchio was very disobedient and because of this, some absolutely terrible things happened to him. So basically the “naughtiness” was practically beaten out of him and he became reserved. This is canon, I want to confirm. The blue fairy kisses him and he becomes a real boy.

Do you see the resemblance???

Lemme ask again-

Do you see the resemblance????

That is the official art from the original 1889 Pinocchio

This is very important information because this mean that Pinocchio “P” is already human. Mostly.

This is not a “spin off” of Pinocchio, this is a continuation of Pinocchio. And I think this is just amazing.

I thought was a little weird that P had so much skin, and when this skin stretched or folded, it was like real skin, nothing silicone or artificial (silicone doesn’t exist yet in the late 1800s I don’t think) (don’t quote me on that). I heard some people say his face is porcelain, but that also wouldn’t make sense because he wouldn’t be able to turn his head.

If he was made of porcelain, then there would at least be a joint or a separation or porcelain plates on his neck and his fingers, but there isn’t.

So he’s human , to sum it up. It’s 2023, game development and 3D modeling is so advanced, that everything in his design is done on purpose.

There’s still some unanswered questions, though. Why does he have a mechanical arm, why does he wake up in an abandoned train station and doesn’t know who Mr. Geppeto, his father, is? Why does he look much older??

Classic case of amnesia.

Here’s where the plot thickens. And I’m about to jump to a whole lot of conclusions, so bare with me.

So maybe some time has passed and now P is somewhere in his teens, and Geppeto snapped, knocked out P, cut off his arm to make him into a weapon, to sell him maybe. Geppeto is canonically dirt poor, so maybe greed got to him.

That’s my favorite theory. It’s actually my only theory.

The blue fairy, or Sophia, is there to help him gain his memories, hopefully.

Then the talking thing in the lantern that P carries is the cricket. His conscience.

So the reason P finds himself in an abandoned train station is so Geppeto can test out P’s newly weaponized arm, by throwing him into life and death situations.

Now the obvious question.

Why does the official Lies of P website say that he’s on a journey to become human?

They’re lying. Duh.

Thank you everyone for coming to my TED talk.

If that’s not the whole book love dynamics in one meme I dunno what I read and why itS SO FUNNY-

So the king wants to marry off nahri to mutahdir but nahri wants to marry dara but dara wants nahri to marry jamshid but jamshid and mutahdir are secretly dating EACH OTHER
