Got lucky with stuff coming back to the ESO in-game store, and not only got the missing statues and dro-m'athra target dummy I needed, but got it all at a discount too that I didn't expect, so I could finish the adeptorium I'd been working on the past couple of weeks without possibly having to...

Put the finishing touches on Two Moons Adeptorium... got lucky and pretty much everything left that I needed(mostly statues) came back to the Crown Store today. Lots of images, so putting behind a spoiler. There's more I could show, like the upstairs and downstairs hallways, the wayshrine...

It also works in Morrowind, though Morrowind also has the old Sanctuary effect that you can stack instead to just not ever get hit.

Stopped by a store on the way back from my doctor's appointment(nothing serious, Doc just moved practices and I needed to get my medical history transferred over) and they had a "hamburger" cake!! It's been a couple years since I've been able to get one of these in time for my birthday coming...

Next one is of my chakat OC again, Chakat Swiftwind. After a five year tour as helmsman of a Star Fleet Fast Cruiser exploring the frontier, shi found hirself unsatisfied with the limitations of flying such a ship. Shi retired from service, finding a new career in the private sector as a test...

A few things! 1) In our ongoing 5e D&D campaign, my werewolf paladin got to lay a critical haymaker smite with her final spell slot on a large minotaur animated skeleton! It lumbered up to attack our kobold rogue while my character was standing just around the corner. She looked up, grinned...

Catching up on the RFC stream from last week, turns out Hasbro did a 3% layoff early last week. Most of the other bits from that they talked about aren't really relevant to TF though since they're focused on RPGs as a topic.

That's why I added the caveat about if it's something you can discuss openly. I am aware there are plenty of things that one might be doing that you don't talk about outside encrypted channels, and ideally not even then. Just pointing out that just going around mimicing Rattrap is not preparing.

So what are you doing to prepare then(assuming it's something you can discuss openly, of course) other than doomsaying? If all you're doing is saying "We doomed, smoke 'em" then that's not preparing, that's just giving in to despair.
