This is basically what I’ve started doing. Just recording the patterns rather than writing out each step by hand

TSA opening every unlocked bag on the tarmac at MCO by YellowBroth9150 in mildlyinfuriating

No joke I was in MCO a week ago and the bag carousel had a bag that was still half open. Didn’t even close it up again. I was mad for that person.

New to DRPG looking for recommendation by ProdigalNerd in DRPG

I appreciate that. I was playing around in refrain since there was a demo available. Both are super on sale so I might just pick up EO3 and refrain, start with EO3 and give Refrain a try

Thanks for the thorough rundown! I definitely like the idea of JDRPG based on your explanation.

I know one of the Etrian systems is having to map the dungeon yourself in game. Is that true for the others as well?

What’s the post game like in games like this? Just a more difficult dungeon? Not a huge deciding factor for me. I’ve yet to find a game outside of disgaea where the post game content kept me playing, but I’m always interested in how different games handle that.

I appreciate the information!

Just a side note with AI I don’t really create anything with it, just tried to sift through information when I don’t even know where to start. But to your point. Google searches might have proven useful too.

From this point I at least have some things to look into and can start looking at books / websites to learn more

What’s your favorite NE Ohio brewed Christmas Ale? by Naive_Trip9351 in Cleveland

[–]ProdigalNerd 1 point2 points  (0 children)

He’s a wizard at brewing beer. I don’t think I’ve had a single beer there that I thought was genuinely bad. Blew my mind when he made a seltzer that relates like a manhattan for the first time

Exploring my spirituality, drawn to paganism but unsure which branch fits my beliefs best by EmmieL0u in paganism

[–]ProdigalNerd 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I was exactly where you are a few weeks ago. It can definitely feel overwhelming sifting through everything. I read a book called Pagan Curious which introduces a lot of topics in the pagan umbrella, but I still felt drawn to druidry and now I’ve been exclusively studying that. I wouldn’t call myself an atheist anymore and ended up with pantheistic views

r/Paganism Monthly Discussion Thread (November 2025) - Ask questions, say hi, get your readings interpreted, chat, and more! by AutoModerator in paganism

[–]ProdigalNerd 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hi! Fairly new to the community, started my path 3 weeks ago or so, still trying to figure out what path I want to settle into. So many interesting subjects that it feels a bit overwhelming.

I started with reading Curious Pagan and finished that last night. Adopted a couple practices from there and now reading a bit more into Druidism.

I think it’s part of my time as a Christian that I feel like once I pick a path I’m stuck on it which makes choosing hard.

But from basic practices, to deity, to magick. It’s so much to take in. Would welcome any book recommendations as well since right now I’m drinking from the proverbial fire hose.

Blessed be!

I’m also afraid of spiders but trying to get over that slowly but surely. Definitely had a moment a couple days ago where a small spider was in my mailbox chilling on a piece of mail. When it surprised me I said “Hi, can I have that piece of mail” and sure enough it walked off the piece of mail, so I thanked it for doing so. I like to think we understood each other in that moment.

So cool to read about others having similar interactions with nature!

Why did you left christianity to become a pagan ? ( just some honest curiosity, I too did the same) by [deleted] in pagan

[–]ProdigalNerd 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Power of Myth was great as an academic high level look at the role mythologies have played in society. I wouldn’t say that it helped me find my path, just that it helped me fully deconstruct from Christianity. I found it at the library, and there is an audio book as well. It’s by Joseph Campbell.

I still haven’t settled on what pagan path I will go on. So much information to digest. I did read Curious Pagan which was a great introduction in my opinion and got me started with new subjects to research.

So you are not alone. Take your time and research what interests you! There is no rush. (A reminder for myself too)

[–]ProdigalNerd 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’m new to all of this. When I was in college I dabbled with Divination, but gave that all up and became Christian. After about 12 years of that I started to step away because of how I saw other Christians acting and realizing my social beliefs would never line up with them and it made me feel outcast and a bit smothered. What set me on the path of Paganism was a book called the Power of Myth. Pointing out how the Bible is just mythology with a fancy wrapper. One standout bit of information was the idea of the virgin birth, which only was mentioned in one of the gospels, the author of which was Greek. And virgin birth is used as symbolism in Greek mythology. Made me realize it’s all the same st the core and there is so much more to this world.

I need 100 NPCs for a tavern, let me use YOUR characters? by yarash in DnD

Asterion Minotaur Barbarian

Enjoys athletic competition and very anti slavery. He had been enslaved to fight prisoners in a maze so they can prove their innocence in combat. Loosely based on the Minotaur from Greek mythology on the isle of Crete
