hey is the word “eliminate” good when they’re talking about You. just wondering

#Juniplex has been a blast and thank you @khonri.com for putting it together and encouraging me to participate. I've just started this journey of writing this RPG I'm building. It's been a blast to work out one of my major factions during this month and meet lots of awesome new folks on here. 💜

I have free time to give and will gladly volunteer that free time to a Dem Presidential candidate that is willing to fight for trans rights and court reform. Also any person who tells a trans person that they're selfish for being a single-issue voter after the horrors should be sent to the moon.

Can't stress what emily is saying enough. Tomorrow's SC ruling on the trans sports bans, however narrow or broad it may be, matters but please don't fall into the despair and doom. I've had to talk too many fellow trans folks down lately from the doom and it's okay to worry, but... 🧵

#Juniplex Content warning for eugenics. I talked about it an earlier post but in the world I'm building, there were two methods magic came to be in humans. They were either blessed with it by the gods aligned to that magic or they were born with it, as it was hereditary. 🧵

#Juniplex This will be war crime day adjacent but I'll save that bit for later. In the world I'm creating, mankind wasn't quite sure how magic was blessed upon them. Turns out it was a twofold situation - the gods were blessing them and it was hereditary. But... 🧵

#Juniplex Well the Faithless literally broke free from the best propaganda - thought control magic using Mystics. So surely they'd be more wary of how they feel or think about certain things. But it's odd because ever since their charismatic, brave leader helped to save them... 🧵

Glad I took the day off to play Deltarune's new chapter. Loved it. Not as much as Chapter 4, but still loved it.

#Juniplex I think the most important event is going to be the rising up of the Faithless against the Mystics that I've talked about. I'm very eepy, so I'm going to bullet point a bit, if that's okay! The story kind of snowballs into the main plot. 🧵

Can't believe I've spent so much time looking for character visual inspiration for a strong woman with a large mace/battlehammer, when the best inspiration was here the entire time.

#Juniplex I just idea farmed this up a bit today, so it's not all there. There were varying eras of magic blessings in my world and in one of the eras humans were blessed with magic became a fleeting time. They spent their brief time with magics' blessings... 🧵

#Juniplex There was a very notable settlement in the southwestern part of the world. It was a verdant forest, brimming with life, beautiful crystal clear waters, untouched by any but the druidic tribe that lived there. 🧵

#Juniplex I think I wrote about him in an earlier post, but the leader of the Faithless is someone they revere as a living legend. He (or she) promised them their freedom - using his blessing of a "perversion" of the pillar of Mind's magicks. 🧵

#AwesomeCharacters Imogen was sheltered (quite literally) and is just now seeing the outside world. So everything that would be perceived as cute is cute and it is pure, unfettered joy when she sees it for the first time. 😭

#Juniplex There's multiple magical pillars in my world and I've wanted to dabble with them all having some healing, to an extent. The main group I've been discussing is the Faithless, who are a majority of not-blessed-with-magic folks. But they have medical folks... 🧵

Not sure if it's good to set world building goals for myself, but this weekend I'm hoping to: ✔️ create a first draft timeline of, at minimum, the eras of my world ✔️ create a first draft timeline of the areas visited throughout the narrative ✔️ gets tentative names on said areas

#Juniplex The unblessed Faithless are pretty standard, medieval-era style communicators. Messengers, couriers, some are educated enough to write and read print. The blessed Faithless should, in theory, be doing the same but they are able to communicate with the mind magicks that... 🧵

#Juniplex The Faithless maintain a fairly standard military hierarchy. It's perhaps still a bit immature, given they're still growing in number and hashing out their imperialistic goals. Perhaps the most unique of the commands come from the blessed in the upper ranks. These are the... 🧵

#Juniplex The Faithless military have quartermasters, patrols, and routine drills and training. It's very standard, boring military affairs. The upper ranks and strategists are a mix of the blessed and unblessed, just casually plotting the next war crime. The usual.

Introduce yourself with four video games.

#AwesomeCharacters Imogen was "adopted" (kidnapped) as an infant and was raised by a group of specifically chosen Mystics. One of the members of this group was a close mentor and teacher of hers. Probably the closest to family that Imogen knew. Her mentor taught her basic self-defense... 🧵

#Juniplex There are quartermasters in the Faithless who were in charge of supplies for the Mystics, so things have been kept orderly on the equipment front, for the most part. Although, the higher ranking officers tend to take what they need with little push back. 🧵

#Juniplex The Faithless aren't too fond of magical dealings in housing, what with freeing themselves of their magical overlords some time ago. Simply put when they were nomadic, they managed to piecemeal tents and temporary shelters together. 🧵

#Juniplex The food for the Faithless pre-rebellion was thoroughly rationed by the Mystics that ruled them. Even though they were often the ones hunting, baking, and making the Mystics meals, it was hard to say no to or sabotage the meals of their lords who had mind control magicks. 🧵

Do I do a replay of Deltarune before Chapter 5 or just put the soundtracks on loop until June 24??

#AwesomeCharacters This is something I'm work shopping so I'm interested to hear thoughts. Rhenna is a Druid of sorts. Their particular Druidic powers allow them to shapeshift into animals and monsters they encounter or have defeated. But Rhenna isn't very good at the shapeshift. 🧵

#Juniplex The Faithless are a young nation (collective?) and are still figuring out the economic side of things. While most of the rest of the world's nations run on a standardized one that the merchant's capital uses, they have isolated themselves from the other magical nations. 🧵

transition timeline

#AwesomeCharacters Oh this is fun to think about. I wish I had names figured out but I'll do my two main protagonists... 🧵

is this why i like American Dad so much

#Juniplex The military side of the Faithless is mixed gender and race is not important. The commonality amongst the normal military ranks is that the bulk of their military is the unblessed - those who can't wield magicks. The leaders of units tend to be either the standouts or ... 🧵

here we are

Ahhh it's been so cool following and interacting with so many new folks during this writing prompt stuff. I'm trying to read all your things and your neat stories and characters and I keep getting sidetracked lmao

#Juniplex Mostly necessity. The Faithless were a group of normal, non-magical humans used as a servant class by their rules. Early on, the options were fight or die. Now that their society has had time to stabilize, grow, and form around their own governance... 🧵

#AwesomeCharacters A friend told me about these awesome prompts and I'm excited to talk and build some of my characters! Since it's late, I'm just going to talk quickly about one of my two mains - Imogen! Imogen isn't quite sure how to care just yet. She's trying but... 🧵

#Juniplex The Faithless were a rebellion group at first, mostly formed of their leader, his inner circle and trusted advisors, and those strongest enough to endure his and his inner circles enhancing magicks with little to no side effects. That was for the time of necessity. 🧵

#Juniplex I'm so late to the party today. The Faithless and the world they live in have tales of a time before magic ruled the world. But who knows how long that was, generations have passed, everything passed down by verbal myth and legend. 🧵

#Juniplex Are the Faithless justified in seeking their freedom? Absolutely, who wouldn't do what they need to do to survive. Would the Faithless that aren't aware of how the magicks that won them their freedom feel good about how that magic was born? Maybe those with a pesky conscience, but ... 🧵

#Juniplex I really hate to be cliché, but freedom is, or was, the essence of the Faithless. They were treated as lesser, servants, laborers, the bottom rungs of society by their Mystic oppressors. Now they have their freedom*, thanks for their leader. *Also cliché, but is freedom free?

#Juniplex This is probably a first draft origin story but... I don't have a formal name for this militaristic society yet, but given their lack of natural magical affinity and for the sake of this exercise I'm going to call them the Faithless. 🧵(1/8)

#Juniplex This will be my first writing prompt exercise and I'm excited to participate! I've just started writing an RPG idea I've had for over a year now into a set of coherent and organized notes. I'm hoping to build on one particular faction that will be critical to my world. (1/4)

It’s not just kids: Trump’s crackdown on trans healthcare extends into adulthood.

Labour making such a priority of our eradication is among the biggest signifiers that it’s lost all touch with ordinary voters. Sparing *any* time for piling more misery on a minority group when millions are affected by multiple ongoing crises is a fucking insult to all of us, cis and trans alike.
