Just a quick blurb about Faenya in my “Wings and Prayers” setting. Writing it down here to build off of later. Faenya is NOT a primary mover and shaker in the greyhawk theme, she’s a elven god of avariel in core canon. And given the Thorsari OBVIOUSLY got suboptimal land placement, here’s my pitch. THe […]
In gods we trust, all others pay cash.
Something I’ve been working on in my revamps is trade. In Three Pantheons, it largely revolves around WHAT is being traded. For Three Pantheons, the divine realms generally are in a bit of a Cold War standoff with the technological areas. And one thing I’ve decided to do is to play with transmutation. At the […]
Possible future outreach?
So I’ve been doing “So Your Kid Dragged You To Anthrocon” at AC for well over a decade, and once at MFF. Used to do the “Under 18 furs” at AC, though I’ve stepped back from that a bit in the last few years due to the calendar. But between that, the Creating a Fursona […]
Always give 100% (unless you’re donating blood)
So it looks like tonight may have been my 100th unit of blood donated. (I’ve given a few different places as I moved around, so the count is in my head). If it wasn’t tonight, it’s very, very close. This has long been sort of a personal goal. Many years ago someone a few degrees […]
Delayed epiphanies
So I’ve discussed before my issue with staying focused. And I’ve come to realize that a huge part of that is me being a social butterfly and desperate for interaction. I have a lot of contacts and groups, and even the ones I’m not really active in often linger for long periods before I finally […]
“Term”-inal velocity
So back when I was much younger, before the first Protogen was activated, and the first Dutch Angel Dragon had manifested, Anthrocon had not yet broken 2500 attendees, and Uncle Kage had a full head of hair, I joined a D&D campaign played online over Avians.net IRC. Started in 2004, and played over OpenRPG and […]

Once you start down the dark path, forever will it dominate your destiny
As mentioned previously, some years ago I had to have necessary optical surgery for a medical condition. And since then, I often get ‘halos’ around brighter lights. The first I really noticed it was at the movie theater, where there was a glow halo around the entire screen. This also is a serious issue when […]
And I thought the hawk shoots were bad.

To rise from its ashes, a phoenix must first burn
I’ve discussed time before and how I’ve been making changes in my life, to reduce distractions and improve my productivity. But it has come to my attention that that is not the only area I am weighed in the balance and found wanting. Now, this isn’t to say I will be abandoning what I said. […]
