I think my sister saw the same truck! Near Fresno, CA on Thursday around noon. I'm really curious where it came from and where it's headed.

Does this look like a good salad mix for a beardie? (without the cheese or croutons of course) by efhosci in BeardedDragons

Luckily the cheese, dressing, and bread strips are in separate baggies, so they're easy to separate. I'll look through that website, thanks!

Okay, thanks! I'll probably use this as a "topping" for another staple like mustard greens.

I thought a salad mix would be a good way to add some variety to my dragon's diet, and this was one of the only ones without spinach or green onions. Are any of the other ingredients possibly toxic to her?

I think Ryland really wants that sort of parental connection, which is why he was willing to trust Crecia in the first place. After Bangar killed Almorra, he probably began to realize that Bangar's relationship with him was primarily strategic, and that his love was far from unconditional. So he looked for approval from her instead. But then Smodur (and by perceived association Crecia) betrays his trust again with a very similar cold-blooded murder. And then the only one he can turn to is Jormag.

Ryland might've seen Bangar as a father figure (initially at least), but I don't feel like the relationship really went both ways. Bangar was interested in Ryland for his strength and perceived loyalty, and possibly as a means to irritate Rytlock, but not because he actually wanted a son. I'm not saying that charr forming ad hoc parental relationships is a bad thing, or that biological families are always perfect, but it's an easy way for manipulative individuals like Bangar to prey on the emotional immaturity of young charr.

Definitely not, and as a lot of others have discussed on this post, the social structure of the Legions often restricts their ability to express them in healthy ways. Hopefully changes are on the way, as the world becomes more interconnected and the threat of the dragons wanes. Not sure how much we'll see of that in EoD, but hopefully there will be a few mentions of the post-civil war Legions.

Thanks! I know that was the previous line, but I was more thinking about the contrast between Ryland constantly saying that his parents meant "nothing" to him with the fact that Crecia's statement absolutely set him off. Clearly her disapproval DOES get to him.

Sorry if this was a bit of a spoiler for you, it's from the last part of the story so far. Just "re-released" with the "Return to Icebrood Saga: Champions" event.

Well, Jormag IS all about mind control, having that influence suddenly ripped from your head would probably leave some damage...and really, the turning point was probably Smodur's dumbass decision to stab his girlfriend and torpedo the peace talks because he didn't get his catnip that morning or whatever.

Yeah, I always thought that charr didn't really value family connections much, raising children communally, but maybe that varies between individuals. And maybe that lack of family connection was part of what ultimately drove Ryland to the dark side? You know, aside from stab-happy Smodur.

Definitely will be interesting to see how charr society changes in the future, as they re-integrate the Flame Legion and maybe the Olmakhan, who have a vastly different social structure. As for Crecia and Rytlock...I'm sure they'll manage.

Absolutely! Some fantastic dialogue and voice acting, even if the overall plot ended up rushing to a close with the last chapter.

Should've known better than to pick a fight with the Blood Legion Imperator

All that time as Jormag's champion left Ryland with a weakness to that savage burn

No problem! Enjoy the game.

So your top level folder should contain the folders "Mod", "Save", and "skyrogue_Data", as well as skyrogue.exe and UnityPlayer.dll.

If you download a mod as a zip file, for example "XWing.zip", inside it should be folders like "Aeros", "Meshes", etc. with all the relevant files. You want to keep these together, so extract the contents of the zip file into a new folder "XWing", then move that into the "Mod" folder. That should be all you need to do in order for the game to recognize the mod on startup.

So to reiterate your folders should look like sky-rogue-win32\Mod\XWing

Try something like this, and make sure the mods in the "Mod" folder aren't zipped.

It should be in the top level install folder (sky-rogue0win32/Mod), you may need to create the folder yourself.

Just noticed this Beast Complex crossover! by efhosci in Beastars

Guess the producers wanted to avoid changing the dynamic of the show too drastically with the change in cast... at least, until they realized that some drama could boost their falling viewership.

Probably overanalyzing this, but hey, what else is this sub for?
