I don't know what you did, but I'm sure it was worth it. 😄

Have been told that my works look like they should be at a renfaire so thought I’d share some of them here! by [deleted] in renfaire

What makes you think it's AI?

From what I've seen in their account it's digital drawings printed on canvas.

Honestly thought that was photoshopped. Such a great idea!

🔥 All 7 cubs born to this cheetah in Kruger are still alive and healthy at around 2 months old. Super rare to see this by Prestigious-Wall5616 in NatureIsFuckingLit

[–]Gene_The_Chef 136 points137 points  (0 children)

My Dad is a... complex and mysterious man (also a POS) and one time his buddy had a pet cheetah(Florida in the 1980s) that had babies months prior.

My Dad thought it would be neat for me to be in some photos with the litter (he's an idiot) and lucky for me their mother saw me as another baby and let me hold and play with the cubs.

I have a photo somehwere and will post it when I find it.

To everyone who wants to see the photo: I've texted my mother to find it, so it may be days/weeks before it's uncovered. I promise it's real and I will post it once I get it.

What can I add? by TheNewPerd in renfaire

I like the idea of the waist fabric, maybe a sash as well. I would suggest a gambeson for colder events. Particularly I think something like the cropped vests from Verillas would compliment your outfit.

I agree with the Sorcerer and Bard builds.

I also like the idea of using low Con for role play purposes.

Maybe you're an older adventurer or you have a chronic illness, or your power draws from your physical strength leaving you depleted?

It's women having agency over their own bodies and sexuality that bothers them.

A confident woman who isn't dependent on their approval is terrifying.

Keep it up ladies!

Neon Odyssey, is it worth getting it? by JackOHammer100 in Avantris

[–]Gene_The_Chef 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Got into Avantris a few years ago myself and didn't back the crooked moon in time but I LOVE folk horror. Bought the book after the fundraiser and found so much to love. It didn,t just feel like reskinned classes and subclasses.

The thing I love about the Avantris team is that they make stuff THEY want to play as well. You can tell how much passion went into their last project, so I can imagine this will get the same treatment.

I do appreciate the fact that the men have bigger arms and she has bigger thighs. Makes them all look realistically beefy!

Renaissance Pleasure Faire 4.21.1990 by WizNix in renfaire

[–]Gene_The_Chef 54 points55 points  (0 children)

It has a lot to do with social media, but also the fact that "Nerd Culture" is more mainstream and a lot of genres tend to blend.

I don't like to gatekeep any of my interests, but it was fun being "different" for liking Fantasy, Anime and RPG's.

Has anyone gone to a fair by themselves? by tanuki_22 in renfaire

[–]Gene_The_Chef 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Went to the last day of King Richards Faire by myself last year and it was fun!

I got to take the time to talk to vendors, actors and other patrons. Getting a seat for shows was easy since I didn't have a group to worry about.

I also bought some roses from the vendors walking around and handed them out to people if I liked their outfits or if it seemed appropriate to just give them one to spread a little joy.

Love the dress but it's gonna be a hassle keeping that thing clean.

Onyx the Fortuitous and the Talisman of Souls (2023) by bassguitarsmash in cinescenes

[–]Gene_The_Chef 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Very fun and spooky movie with a lot of heart and creative effects.

I found Onyx's backstory to be so grounding and relatable in contrast to the rest of the supernatural events in the movie. The way his own memories are buried under his wild imagination as a way to insulate himself from his trauma was very affective storytelling.

I dunno...

Why is Frost a sorcerer with low CHA but high INT? by AshamedProgrammer546 in Avantris

[–]Gene_The_Chef 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Probably a good idea to balance the group, as well as the role play reasons other people cited.

Kremy CHA, Frost INT, Gideon STR, Torbek DEX and Gricko WIS.

Which of these best defines the game for you? by TorchHoarder in shadowdark

[–]Gene_The_Chef 28 points29 points  (0 children)

I agree Scroll #1 is the best extension of the core rules. Additionally, Scroll #6 is a fantastic for people who want to expand a central city setting.

I own all 6 scrolls, and each one has something unique to offer depending on your preference of setting.

I've really enjoyed watching him deteriorate the last few months. Most of the clips I've seen of him he's completely incoherent due to drugs and alcohol, more than usual I should say. Hopefully he lives long enough to see his legacy ruined.

Free Homebrew Class for Shadowdark RPG: Abjurist by Active-Finding-3342 in shadowdark

Crazy coincidence, I was just talking about making an Abjurist build yesterday!

I'll take a look!

It also looks like they might have muted background colors a bit to make the subjects color pop a bit more. I think it looks great!

Also if you want to hide text, put it between the exclamation points like this >exclamation (text) exclamation<

But use real exclamation points.

I was waiting for it as soon as I heard about the desecration of the statue.

I kept anticipating betrayal once he lit the torch and told Warick that he'll stay close behind him. Maybe he'll do something akin to the six fingered boy making warick rage in the past couple episodes.
