The king is dead. Long live the king. Alandria is scarred from six long years of war. After a chance encounter in the field, heir-apparent Lisandro hires your mercenary band as security for his upcoming coronation. Now, you find yourself in the nebulous web of lies, schemes, and murder that make up Alandrian politics. When the future king falls deathly ill, it's your job, as the mercenary band's only healer, to figure out what's killing him. The king is dead. Love live the king.
đź—ˇFEATURES
Customizable MC. Play as male, female, or non-binary; trans or cisgender; inter or endosex; customizable pronouns. Customize your appearance, and personality. Tailor your approach to patients -- do you rely on science and surgery, or magic and faith?
Four unique ethnic backgrounds. Alandrian -- the kingdom you find yourself in after ten years. Iskarian -- the expansive empire to the south, and the jewel of the world. Mani -- the nomadic people unwelcome in the north. Ruz -- hailing from the frigid, barren archipelago across the northern sea.
Who were you in your past? A peasant? A former noble? A monastic? Part of a cult? Each ethnicity has four unique origins to choose from -- each origin will impact the story in different ways.
Romance. Or not! Four romance options, two gender-selectable. Play as gay, straight, bisexual or asexual; allo or aromantic.
Solve a medical mystery. Save the king however you can.
Change the course of history. Your proximity to royalty puts you in a position to play the great game -- in fact, you have to, to stay alive.
POV Switches. See some parts of the story from the point of view of the ROs and other characters.
Keep your secrets hidden. They cannot find out.
đź—ˇROMANCE OPTIONS
Sibir Temyurinkai. [She/her, he/him, they/them] Your best friend for more than a decade. A mercenary warlord many people can't read. You have a lot of history. Maybe even too much. You make them vulnerable. Flavor of romance: friends-to-lovers, love epiphany, UST, shippers on deck.
Lisandro Abarcas. [He/him] The young king uncrowned of Alandria. He's hired Sibir (and therefore you) to be extra security for his upcoming baptism and coronation, but a mysterious illness forces you to play doctor. Flavor of romance: courtly love, Uptown Girl, savior complexes
Idali Abarcas. [She/her] Duchess of the northern province of Baqueria, second in line to the throne, Lisandro's older sister and vicious rival. A cunning, calculating opponent -- but she might be willing to work with you. Flavor of romance: Uptown Girl, Defrosing the Ice Queen, #girlbossmode, dancing with danger
Tesias. [She/her, he/him, they/them] A very mysterious masked traveler. They offer advice and information -- for a price. As a spy, you can't trust anything they say -- but you know they want revenge. And they want it now. Flavor of romance: [INFORMATION CORRUPTED]

I AM SORRY FOLLOWERS, I LOVE MY MOMMY

sorry followers :(
just making it dead clear that this blog does not support russia's invasion of ukraine, however also fuck off with that shit if you are demonising regular russian civilians who have nothing to do with this and didnt want a war just as much as everyone else did. politicians are not an excuse for your xenophobia.
can someone please be proud of me like fuck I’m trying
Twitter ppl returning isn't bad bcus the annoying people™ are coming back; literally every one of us on here has been on tumblr for at least 5 years, we are unsalvageable. However, it IS bad because Tumblr has barely any content moderation (that isn't lazer focused on eradicating boobs from the site and deleting black people's blogs when they get "too" political) and a new crop of trad caths, terfs, and other sundry reactionaries are about to make Tumblr their home.
In the last week or so, I've been followed by about 20 former Twitter users, so I'm going to pivot this into a PSA. you may feel the urge to engage with these people when they comment on your posts. I urge you: DON'T. just block them. Keep yourself and the users around you safe and block them. If you reblog and comment,you're exposing anyone you're mutuals with, anyone who reblogs that pithy comment from you, to potential harassment. It is not uncommon for reactionaries on here to form chain hate mobs. I spent a whole week getting death threats and blocked almost 400 people by the end of it.
This is not twitter. Do not argue with them. Shut them down.
This quote is so fantastic that it makes me hurt with yearning, and it pisses me off that it’s from a diary of a wimpy kid fan book
Helloooo new followers who recently moved from the bird app, here's a lil reminder if you follow content creators (gif/gfx makers, fanfic authors, etc):
Do not, I repeat, do not repost/reupload/retouch/rewrite our work. We suggest you to reblog instead. It's a win-win solution! We gain visibility, while your blog won't be flagged as a bot. Also if you're still too shy to say hi, leave something in tags. Some of us read them like newspaper!
And if you see us self-reblogging our work, it's one of our ways to let people know (esp for those who live in different timezones) that we just post something. It's a common practice on Tumblr, but if you feel annoyed, feel free to block the tag (a few of us put something like sr/self reblog in tags).
Please enjoy your stay on Tumblr. You may get lost or confused at first, but once you know how this platform work, it won't be hard for you to be in your community.
Please I'm begging you all to turn this on in your settings
Now that I've enabled this I can see how old a post is and also when anything added via reblog was posted. I'm now able to see, for example, people inadvertantly circulating news that's years old but responding to it like it's new. I can see if a post with 10k notes is a day old or a decade old. It's very, very useful. Please do it.
So, I have been learning languages for a while now, and one of the things I have always been struggling with is having a space that could gather all the info I need, the spreads I used to make on my bullet journal, and maybe even something more.
Notion has become my best friend all over the last couple of years, but as I am a pretty sick perfectionist, I am still mastering the art of creating efficient templates, but I am slowly overcoming this problem of mine… In the meantime enjoy my favorite YouTube videos all about Notion x Language Learning:
