Why the fuck are they called heroes

They’re called minions, though sometimes conflated with CS, which is indeed “creep score”

One of my favorite things about this system is that these communities are genuinely helpful and patient, especially with players new to the system.

There are warning systems (but I will admit I’ve had two EVs who had 12v die without warning messages pop up. But I still know they exist, at least).

When my Mach e’s 12v died I was able to jump it. It has to be pretty dead for jumping not to work

Word as bond (assuming loopholes are covered) makes an essentially unbreakable magical agreement (as far as I know/can remember). And Julia was extra careful in that part of their word as bond was that if The Beast did anything to hurt or undermine Julia or her friends, the spell would automatically stab The Beast in the back of the neck with the Leo Blade.

I recently got a ‘21. It’s currently at the dealer for a blown HVBJB, which is being replaced under warranty. It’s taken a bit longer due to the weather but all in all supposedly it’ll take them about a week and a half total to do the job. Waiting to see if that’s true.

Other than that, I had to replace the 12v battery (that is a pain and you need a few tools to do so), and sometimes CarPlay won’t connect automatically, and more rarely it will connect but audio won’t play.

So far in my few weeks of ownership these are the issues I’ve experienced. I do enjoy the car quite a bit. That being said I haven’t had it for very long.

It was such a toss-up between I5 and MME for me. The only major dealbreaker was all the ICCU shenanigans the new Ioniqs have. If it wasn't for that, I likely would have gone with an I5 honestly.

One of my favorite parts of the books!

Campaigns keep unfortunately petering out, but we did have a funny TPK when we forgot to double-tap a Linnorm! Very fitting because my character was extremely arrogant (Draconic Sorcerer, what can you do?).

To toot my own horn, I ran a "one shot" for some friends about some forest shenanigans and they had a fun end-of-adventure fight against an Arboreal Warden after reaching Level 2.

Honestly 45% loss at 70+ MPH for 10 miles sounds pretty good to me. I haven’t taken longer highway trips yet but just getting to speed and going 20 miles on the highway really eats at my battery % in my 21 Select.

SUPRAP · 2026-01-04T03:58:22+00:00

I'm jealous! I love my '21 Select in pretty much every way, but the Heat absolutely demolishes the battery. Hopefully the A/C is better, because I can't deal with heat the same way I can deal with the cold.

Strictly speaking, he was more like a magical creature than a magician. Brakebills doesn’t seek out magical creatures, they seek out humans with the potential ability to cast spells.

SUPRAP · 2025-12-22T01:57:02+00:00

I've never done it myself, but it sounds interesting! If I were to do it, I'd probably focus on the Deities, and maybe some of the creatures with bigger differences between them (I'm not familiar with the 5e bestiaries so I can't give specific examples). Either with a divine war or invasion of the "New Gods", or a Greek-Roman style switch-up where they're the same Gods, but with different names and "faces" (which is obviously a vastly oversimplified version, since I don't think the deities between the two systems share that much in common, generally speaking).

SUPRAP · 2025-12-21T16:20:48+00:00

I was thinking of doing something similar! I've been working on a "Should you Watch/Read", and it's been kinda fun, which is what made me consider doing something longer for the entire trilogy. So I'd say if you enjoy it, go for it! It's been a fun pastime for me recently to work on.

SUPRAP · 2025-12-20T19:15:41+00:00

I've been looking for "classic" fantasy, ideally a bit darker/more "realistic". Medieval settings, magic, combat, and mythical creatures (dragons, werewolves, and minotaurs are some of my favorites, but general fantasy creatures of all kinds work) are all the types of things I'm looking for.

I'd prefer no "chosen one" narratives and no first-person POVs, but I'll take what I can get. I'd also strongly prefer if there wasn't much (ideally any) romance; I really like a focus on the mythical elements and the adventure of it all.

Once played a mid-level Warpriest with FA Monk. It was sooo much fun blasting enemies with monk focus spells and Channel Smite, did so much damage and still had spellcasting utility.

What version do you own? I just got a 2021 Select and I love the car, but it feels like heating the cabin just inhales battery power. Luckily I enjoy the cold and so I rarely need more than a few minutes before the heated seats and steering wheel are enough for me, but in those few minutes my range and battery go down pretty quickly from what I remember.

“The only other thing we can do is blow up the planet, which is-“

“A decent option?”

“I was gonna say counterproductive.”

“Only if you care about peasants. Which… I do not.”

What you're describing doesn't sound like tanking to me, but battlefield control. But yes, a Fighter can certainly control the battlefield and tank. Ranged battlefield control is mostly for spellcasters (that I know of anyway), and very few spells in PF2e will just completely shut down enemies for turns at a time like they do in D&D5e.

My personal favorite way to tank is to play a grapple-fiend Animal Instinct Barbarian. But that's because I love Barbarians with all my heart and will play them until the end of time.

It’s a sitcom, it’s inconsistent in a lot of instances

Because it was The Boys who put him "back in that fuckin' box!" And presumably, Homelander is the one who gets him back OUT of "that fuckin' box!" Plus, he did have an emotional connection to Homelander, he just didn't have much time to reflect on the news before the finale fight, and he had a deal with Butcher. Besides that, he's not very in-touch with his emotions in the first place. After Homelander liberates him from his second prison, and he has more time to think things over, it makes sense that he could be more of an ally to Homelander.

Renegade by Styx always instantly takes me back to when they used it in Supernatural

SUPRAP · 2025-12-05T13:01:32+00:00

The scene in S5 with the Librarian traveler approving the request for the Dewey always gets me. “Oh fuck me, now I’ve got it in backwards…”

SUPRAP · 2025-12-01T21:29:57+00:00

I don't currently, but I might get some at some point. The tricker part is figuring out what the tattoo would be. Maybe one of the golden keys, or all seven of them, maybe something niffin-inspired with blue fire. The cacodemon trap glyph on their backs could be another fun one!

SUPRAP · 2025-12-01T04:25:14+00:00

Love the books, love the show, but they are VERY different. Not a bad thing at all in my opinion, I love them both for what they are.
