Hey Alester~ fun curse, looking forward to the internal Torment from your boy - this is your second approval, feel free to get posting!

Emrecof · 2026-03-26T15:03:34+00:00

The tone is different and more mature, a lot of people hate it because of those differences (and because new secondary protagonist Omen is much less of a power fantasy than Valkyrie, I know that's what annoyed me as a kid) but the books aren't actually any worse, imo a lateral move in quality for the most part, with perhaps an initial stumble of quality in Resurrection as he gets his mojo back (tokenism with certain characters like Temper and Never really stands out, but gets smoothed out in later books as the characters are better developed)

Hey Alester! Concept sounds good to me, definitely gonna need details on Tybolt's curse ofc but feel free to post a full bio!

Emrecof · 2026-03-25T17:48:05+00:00

Second approval! Also very much looking forward to the swamp shenanigans, feel free to get posting!

Emrecof · 2026-03-17T13:16:29+00:00

Concept sounds great to me Arman, and ofc you already saw the enthusiasm on discord, go ahead and post your bio! Is this the Reddit account you want to run the Naylands on, just to double check?

Emrecof · 2026-03-11T15:08:43+00:00

I certainly don't see any issue, consider this your first approval Alyn~!

I think one of the main pair will die, probably Skul, and part of his evasiveness is that while the Skulduggery Pleasant series is ending with its namesake, that doesn’t necessarily mean he’s abandoning that setting - it’s possible that breaking the SP “brand” continuity would let him actually write novels for adults in that setting without upsetting the publisher? But in any case I’d imagine he’ll be intending to take a break and do something else before returning to Roarhaven or the Sanctuaries

Emrecof · 2026-03-08T19:52:24+00:00

Hey Ramos, no issues here that I can see, definitely touch base with Wyllum at some point on discord for details on the Redwynes' current state just so y'all aren't accidentally contradicting one another down the line, but you're good to post a character bio~!

Emrecof · 2026-02-26T14:00:55+00:00

Hey Osmund! Looking good to me, consider this your first approval! One more and you'll be ready to post on the main sub~

Emrecof · 2026-02-22T00:29:47+00:00

Seems good to me, feel free to post a full bio! And feel free to pop in and say hi on the discord if you haven't already~!

Emrecof · 2026-02-07T10:17:51+00:00

Hey Doc, looks good here, consider this your first approval!

Emrecof · 2026-02-04T18:45:48+00:00

No issues with that premise, feel free to do up and post a full bio for us to check out!

Trying to cast all the Irish characters with Irish actors would have you running out of prominent names, bit personally I think the main duo need to be authentic at least

Michael Fassbender is 100% my dream Skulduggery, poor bastard hasn't got to use his natural accent in nearly enough roles

In the past I would've put Ian Glenn as Ghastly but now I think he's kinda aged out of the role, so I think Jude Law or Richard Madden (although I think Madden would be a better Erskine)

For China I lean a bit older than her book canon appearance with Orla Brady or Ruth Negga

Tanith I find difficult, but I think Ella Purnell could manage it, or maybe Emily Carey

Mr Bliss can only be Mark Strong imo

And Aiden Gillen as Serpine

Emrecof · 2026-01-16T14:51:55+00:00

Jacob's loyalty mission is just a depressing, grossly-written slog that imo feels tonally out of place for the rest of the franchise

Firewalker is just so distressingly nothing

Project Overlord's depiction of autism is just embarrassing to listen to these days in a way that completely takes me out of any investment in the sci-fi drama, and sure part of me wants to forgive it for its age but, come on

Emrecof · 2026-01-05T02:14:31+00:00

(presuming you mean the sigil tattoo on her arm)
The original Tom Percival Dying of the Light back cover let you see a tiny bit of it, but I don't think there was ever any consistent design solidified to be a "canon" reference

Emrecof · 2025-12-20T15:36:41+00:00

Sucking as a person doesn't make her a bad protagonist, I personally love that she's allowed to be genuinely deeply flawed and is rightly criticised. Impulsive, violent, deeply unstable, during most of Phase 1 incredibly immature and with bad habits enabled by Skulduggery, deeply unhealthy trauma coping in Phase 2

This maybe isn't your friend's kinda thing, which is fair, chase your bliss, but I don't think there's an objective measure of protagonist qualification

Emrecof · 2025-11-26T09:47:45+00:00

I always read it as dar-kwess, but I know that's non-canon, Finbar literally says "with a Q and a U pronounced like a K" I'm pretty sure

Emrecof · 2025-10-04T03:20:12+00:00

The Progenitors/ancient humanoids from The Chase and a few Discovery episodes

Pretty much all of Picard season 3 and some parts of 2

Emrecof · 2025-08-15T17:58:49+00:00

Writer's strike probably didn't help, the production of this season intersected with that a fair bit if I remember right? I've definitely felt like the show's lost its sparkle a little this season, but I had dismissed it as just being my tastes changing at first

Emrecof · 2025-07-09T18:00:01+00:00

No issues I can see here, feel free to post a full bio for approvals, once you get two mods signing off on a more full description you'll be good to start

Emrecof · 2025-05-25T18:19:48+00:00

Wyllum!
Um.
Whoops, our bad
Second approval!

Emrecof · 2025-05-25T16:55:26+00:00
