2024.05.21 13:53 ChemicalAd2047 How would you rank each of Courtney's game?

I'll go by my personal ranking.
  1. Island:
Her island game was by far her best. In both of the social and physical aspects, she dominated. There's a strong arguments to be made that if she wasn't eliminated, her, duncan, and his friends, plus bridgette could've dominated the merge. Personally it was the only time I genuinely enjoyed her character.
  1. World Tour (pre-love triangle)
Her game play in this section of World tour was almost as good as island. She had a blossoming friendship with Gwen, meaning they would never vote each other. And an easy vote out, Heather, and after Heather is out, she teams up with Cody and chops Sierra off. If they lose again, Cody is out. Leaving her and Gwen as the final two of team Amazon. It's to bad she was preoccupied with Duncan in certain episodes. This was the last time I really enjoyed her.
  1. World Tour (after love triangle)
Seems controversial to put this as third but not really. She managed to chop her new nemesis in Gwen, and got to the merge. She won the first immunity, sending her off into a great start. Mind you, if she put in effort she more than likely would've won the China episode and receive immunity two weeks in a row. To bad she was easily manipulated by Alejandro.
  1. All stars
Truth be told, I found her game play this season to be abysmal. Spent to much time worried about Gwen and Duncan. When she stopped worrying about them, she never branched out and socialized. Her only allies were Gwen, once they made up, and Scott as a romantic partner. Sadly Scott became a moron this season and Mal manipulates him. Her getting swapped to the Villains team was to her benefit. If she stayed with the heroes she more than likely would've been chopped. Finally her creating a chart that showed her only using everyone else to her advantage and not destroying was all on her.
  1. Action
This is quite possibly her at her worst. The first episode she's in, she's unanimously voted out. She only survived because she was suing Chris and got unfair advantages the whole time. The second her advantages were done and she was on her own, she was eliminated. Her physical game was her best, but her social game was gutter trash. Her only ally in Duncan was fighting/flopping for her life every episode to. How those two made final four was beyond crazy. Even Heather, the most hated contestant at the time, made two allies in Harold and Leshanwa that season

Hi Swifties!
Heading to Lisbon N2 by myself on Saturday (GA Floor) and wanted to see if there were maybe others going who wouldn't mind me joining? I promise I'm normal and fun and can send socials for vetting haha...I just caved and bought a last-minute ticket last week and flew in today. Since it was just a week in advance I didn't bother coordinating with any friends (I'm from the US) and was just gonna fly solo and mingle with other Swifties in the crowd. :)
Still totally happy to do this, but thought if I can find others going in advance it might be helpful to have buddies to coordinate GA admission with/hold my spot if I need to pee or get wateetc
Would love to enjoy the concert with folks <3 let me know who'll be there!
And in case you wanna know about what stranger you're inviting to tag along, I'm 31F currently living in NYC and been a Swiftie since Teardrops on my Guitar. I'll be in my ~*~rep era~*~ on Sat night and scream singing every word to every song <3 especially excited to see the TTPD set. I have a friendship bracelet kit with me and will make some before the show, I really want the full experience haha. If you wanna know anything else/see my socials to make sure I'm not a creep, DM me and would be happy to chat more!!!

Hello everyone! I know that after the Eras Tour started, it's becoming popular to make/bring/trade friendship bracelets at concerts and I was wanting to make some for the LOOM tour. I was hoping others might be wanting to do the same. This is a post just informing others of the idea and I hope it encourages others to get crafty while we wait for the new album.
I'm going to the Tampa show, so I will definitely have some to give out there!

2024.05.21 03:08 Due-Sun-4515 What should I(F18) do with my LDR(M20) ?

Hi everyone! It’s the first time I’m posting on Reddit so I don’t really know how it works.. I need some advice/help about my long distance relationship.
He is a cis male who’s 20 (almost 21). I am a cis female who’s 18 (almost 19).
We live about 600km away from each other, but we live in the same country. We both live with our respective families.
So to make context, we’ve met each other on discord via a server etc in 2018.. and honestly I thought we matched well, I mean we got along extremely well as friends. We had a fight after one year of friendship where we blocked each other.
One year passed by (we are now in 2020) and we got in touch again! Because I kind of missed him and he was like one of my friends who got along with me the best (we had a common friend and we’ve stopped to block each other). After reconnecting with him, about 2 years went by (now in 2022) and I started to catch romantic feelings for him. I didn’t tell him, and he’s naturally a flirty guy, so flirting with him and subtly telling him flirty stuff, that I genuinely thought, was easy. I never really saw his face at that time, only parts of his body, like hands, legs etc.. but never his face. In July 2022, I decided to tell him how I felt after telling my friends about our relationship (they knew him from discord servers in 2018). One of my friends told me to tell him about my feelings because, when they read our convos that I sent them, they felt like he had feelings for me too. So I tell him everything, because that day I felt a bit angry that he didn’t really care about leaving me on read for a few hours… (won’t go into details) I told him everything and we had a fight,, he told me he didn’t like me back and that he saw me more like a little sister and stuff. I kind of accepted it at first but I got too nervous(?) that I started to say stuff that made nonsense and he just got angry back. We made up the following day..
Time goes by and we’re now in December 2022, we still had the same relationship as before, even when I thought it’ll never be the same after telling him my feelings, but he was okay with it. I believe the relationship was better and he was genuinely more flirty. Btw we saw each other faces! As new year comes, he tells me at night at exactly 1am right after celebrating the new year, he asks me if I wanted to become his girlfriend. And I never felt so happy and obviously said yes, even when I told him that I hesitated because I wanted to meet him irl first.. It was somehow overwhelming but I never slept THAT GOOD before. Months goes by, yk couple stuff sometimes we argued but it’s okay never went too wrong, we’d call each other too.
July 2023, we argued, I can’t really remember about what but that time I went too far, telling him that maybe we were better not together. So he made me a whole paragraph about how he felt, that he has never really liked me and how he felt wasn’t love like how I felt… to be honest that is the only thing I can remember. I remember pleading him so much after that, crying my eyes out and telling my sibling about what happened with him. I never felt that bad, my first heartbreak. I felt so stupid thinking that I believed he liked me back… and honestly I don’t know… it felt like he liked me? He made so much effort in so many things and was the kindest and most understanding person at that time. I don’t know how it went wrong. I told him, we could never ever be friends again after what we went through, but for him it was still okay. I didn’t speak to him for days, but we mostly still had talks daily.
Months went by, some days were okay we had a good friendship, almost besties I could say, some days just went wrong and so we wouldn’t talk for days (especially me) but he’d still try to reach out by modifying his last text asking if I’m still here, if I’m doing okay and if it’s a farewell then he hopes that I’d live a good life(he’d do that during many days, for instance : if we didn’t talk for one week he’d write something on day 2, then another thing on day 4 etc). I decided to send him a letter and a bracelet (in Feb 2024) I made for him when we were still together that I didn’t dare to send him at that time, at that moment we kind of reconnected(?) He was more sweet and probably thankful, I believe. We genuinely got along very very well, and I kind of believed we still had something yk? Somehow we started to see each other even more (by that i mean we saw every part of our body), he kind of got more gentle? I think we just got a bit more intimate than we were before so I genuinely thought that maybe that time was the right one. Our relationship was not really defined, it was hard to tell what we were. I told him, after a month, that I would come and see him during summer vacation and he was a bit worried about the cost and stuff since he didn’t really want me to meet his family (he has a bad relationship with them, so he never makes his family meet his friends and vice versa). So he thought about the cost of the trip, the food, the stay, what I’ll do if I come, etc.. Honestly, at first the idea didn’t seem to delight him, but I believe he was especially worried about how much I’d spend only to see him. When I decided that, I felt like that even If I’d lose him, at least I would have met him once, that I know how he is in real life. At the end, he was okay with the idea and seemed pretty joyful about it !
Months went by, (May 2024) we argued. (I am a very sensitive person so I cry when I feel too much and I cry VERY easily, so when we argue I’d usually cry, but I’d do that with everyone I argue with.. On the other hand, he is not very empathetic and almost never cries ). Honestly I don’t really remember why. He wanted to fix it, because he knew that on the long run, we wouldn’t last if we kept that going. So I tell him that we should tell each other what bother us and what we want to improve. He replied to me saying that maybe we might just not match each other that well. So I started to not understand and get angry at him. We talked, and I don’t know how we achieved to get there but I started to tell him how I felt but not like I did before, I don’t really know how to explain it but it was just how I really felt about him. He replied. He said that he was sorry for everything, that he might not love me like I love him, that he feels bad for seeing everything about me and stuff, that he is 20 and that he wants to find someone, that he doesn’t see any future with long distance, that he was not here for my body and that I am someone amazing but that he is scared to destroy me. He is always scared to hurt me, because I get hurt very easily.. He believes that he destroyed our friendship and everything bc of what we shared without guaranteeing that he’d be my boyfriend. He often asks himself if he wants to be my boyfriend but he thinks that he doesn’t love me like I love him. He says that he is sorry that I fell in love with a coward like him. I didn’t cry reading it. Maybe because I thought it might have been worse or maybe just because I’ve already went through it. I ask him if distance is really the problem and he just tells me that he can’t really see himself doing that and that we are too young, we are each other first boyfriend and girlfriend.. I believe that he is the love of my life, I feel great talking to him, I feel the most comfortable and I don’t know if I’ll ever meet someone with whom I’m that close. I am very shy and only have a few friends. He is very friendly, he has a bunch of friends and a few close friends. Anyway I told him that I want him to give me one chance, just to meet him first and then to see if we match.. he said ok, but can’t assure me that it’ll work and wants me to promise him that I’ll move on if it doesn’t work.
Knowing that we’d do long distance for 1-2 years, I believe this is fine, we’d see each other on weekends and vacations. But he believes this is gonna be too complicated and requires a lot of sacrifice.
I don’t know what to do… I want to meet him and believe this is gonna work but on the other hand I feel like our relationship might be impossible because he would never really feels comfortable with long distance. I know 2 years is hard, keeping him that many years seems impossible. I am really lost right now.
At first I thought that our relationship might destroy me because I felt so insecure about everything when he didn’t reply or text me what he was doing… it was so hard to give him enough confidence I guess ? He has a lot of girl friends (but still mostly guy friend) so I used to look at his following list on Instagram.. honestly I stalked him… he was very active on Instagram and a lot of times he would be active and not reply to me… but after our breakup I stopped stalking him, and I just gave him more confidence, i knew what I used to do was wrong, he obviously has a life besides me. I believed it had become better but I was certainly wrong..
NB: He is really bad with dates 📅, but he remembers my birthday very well.. he has my birthday date as his phone password. I used to have his when we were together in 2023 but when we broke up I changed it and I didn’t change to his again since I still don’t know what we really are. I sometimes believe he loves me, I believe it. But if he tells me otherwise I just have to stop being delusional.
I might have forgotten important details.. but I’d like to have someone’s perspective on that.. I don’t really know if I should still meet him.. I know we are young…

2024.05.21 03:02 rei_mayo I try to integrate my OCs and other characters in Honkai : Star Rail !

Hello !
So... I'm rei_mayo, and I have a little bit unrealistic project. I create OCs and I imagine characters in lore what would they be in game.
I'm French, so I'm sorry for my bad English ! I prefer precise that there is just original or official content in the post ! This is just from the currents versions of the game and from my head !
Since one year, I work in my free time on this project and there is multiple things :
-First part : the lore of the project, like the background and the location ;
-Second part : the relics, and the elevation materials ;
-Third part : the characters, and the banners ;
-Fourth and last part : the plot of the history (in the big lines).
I prefer to precise why I do this. When I play video games, I love to create characters when it's possible, and in MiHoYo games, it's not possible... But, create characters that only me like, it's very selfish, so I would like to present them to have notices if they are fantastic !

First part :

So, the history would be in a location called the "Shìjiè-Chuán of Xianzhou" (nb : mean Ship-World (世界船) in Chinese). The Shìjiè-Chuán is the capital and the most important part of the Alliance. A little time after Lan became an Aeon, Yaoshi asks to an Emanator to kill the Emperor of Xianzhou and to make a plague mark in the original planet of Xianzhou.
Lan discovers that and he purifies the planet, kill Abominations, destroys the plague mark. With the remains of the planet and the Xianzhouan (?) planet, he creates a huge boat, the Shìjiè-Chuán.
For comparative, the Shìjiè-Chuán is so huge that all the other boats can fit in with no problem. It's contains important locations like :
-The Judgment Palace : The place where the Ten Lords and the Generals Arbiters judges the most dangerous criminals. Despite the fact the criminals are jail in the Xuling, they really are judge in the Shìjiè-Chuán.
-The Starry Streets : Streets where neon, big screens and buildings are. The popular streets of the Shìjiè-Chuán, mix of tradition and modernity.
-The Fallen Garden : A garden where plants of all the planets who were saved by the Hunt are. It's also the place where the Yamato was before the Emanator of Lan gets him.
-The Shackling Prison : The prison of Xianzhou, where all the criminals of the Alliance are located. In the depths of the prison, just one person is remained... Shuhu, Emanator of Abundance.
-The siege of the Ten Lords Commission : The place where all the Ten Lords (not included the Fallen King and the Stellar Queen) are when there is no process. It's also the place where all the Judges, the Wraith Wardens and the Aurumations are when they don't have missions.
-The boats Goldsmithery : The place where the boats of the Alliance are repair. Actually, the Cangcheng is here for reparation after the destruction of Rahu.
-Other places... How to discover them ? Play~
And here is some clarifications !
So, who is the Marshals ?
In my idea, Hua is a false Marshal, to cover and hide the Shìjiè-Chuán, but she's really powerful. She would be a Fu Hua expy... And I will talk about her later...
The reals Marshals are Rei -The Fallen King- and Xingxing -The Stellar Queen-.
Rei is the Emanator (and the only) of Lan. Called the Fallen King because of a legend, he's considered like the most powerful person of the Alliance. He carries a divine katana called the Yamato-Shinigami. (nb : Yamato > Yama, Hindu god and judge of the dead. The Chinese god Yanluowang or Yanluo Wang has his origins in Yama. Shinigami > Death Kami). I will talk about him later.
Xingxing (nb : star (星星) in Chinese) is an Emanator of Nous and a Eclairor (?) of IX. Called the Stellar Queen because she uses stars with martial art for fight, she done renovations in the Shìjiè-Chuán for make it more modern. I will talk about her later too.
The Marshals are the boss of Xianzhou and of all the factions who follow the Hunt, like the Galaxy Rangers. They rule all the commissions, and are very important, but they rule different commissions. For example, The Fallen King rule the Cloud Knights, but the Stellar Queen rule the Artisanship Commission. The only Commission they rule together is the Ten Lords Commission.
Who is the Ten Lords ?
In my idea, the Ten Lords Commission would be composed with eight Lords and the two Marshals, and that would be the Ten Lords. In game, it's said that nobody knows where the commission is despite the members of the Commission them-self, but she would be in the Shìjiè-Chuán. The Ten Lords would be :
-The Fallen King ;
-The Stellar Queen ;
-Yuen (I will talk about her later) ;
-Styx, an Emanator of Finality and a member of the Galaxy Rangers (I will talk about him later);
-Athena (I will talk about her later) ;
-and other people... NPCs, so we don't care about them.
Who is really Hua ?
In my idea, Hua would be a "Marshal". When she (in my mind, she's a she) appears in public, she is the Marshal, but in the Shìjiè-Chuán, she's judge like a General. Her title would be the "Fenghuang" (nb : phoenix of Chinese mythology).She would be in the General of the Cangcheng when he would be repair.
But... The Cangcheng is destroyed, no ?
Yes, he was devoured by the activated planet Rahu. But in the year 8098 (so two years before the game), Rei destroyed Rahu (and killed ~10 000 000 000 of abominations). That liberated the remains of the Cangcheng, and Xianzhou is trying repair him.
Why Shuhu is in the prison ? Shouldn't be dead ?
Technically, she's in prison, but it's precised that nobody knows if it's the really Shuhu of not. In fact, in each prison of Xianzhou, a few reproductions mecha-organics were made by the Stellar Queen for hide the real Shuhu. In the Shìjiè-Chuán, she's just a spirit, seal in a transparant box cell. She just wants to talk with five persons : The Fallen King, the Stellar Queen, Yuen, Blade and Jing Yuan. The unique persons who know that Shuhu is alive are the Ten Lords, the Generals and the Stellaron Hunters. Her real body and remains are with the Abundance, but originally her remains were with Xianzhou, and her spirit was with the Abundance.
Now, here is some more lore that I created :
The Trinity of the Abundance :
If you never see Yaoshi, THEY have a lot of plants in THEIR representation. There is a wheat, a bramble, and a large tree.
I imagine that the members of Abundance considered that these three plants are divines. For them, the wheat represent the immortality, the bramble represent the price to pay for become immortal and the thanks to Yaoshi, and the tree represent the life the Abundance offer to the mortals.Traditionally, the Emanators must wear one of these three symbols. For example, Shuhu wears brambles for gives her blood to Yaoshi.
At the opposite, each plant that the Hunt has purified is considered as a sin. For example, each lotus in the Xianzhou Alliance is a sin for Abundance. But the lotus in the planets of Abundance are holy. The lotus is the incarnation of Yaoshi THEM-SELF, but only if it's in a planet of Abundance.
Rakshasa and Luocha :
If you know Luocha, I think I don't to explain that is said that he's related to the Abundance. And Luocha is an other name for "Rakshasa", a type of evil spirit of the Buddhist mythologize who are cannibals. So, I will tell you who they are :
So, after the planet of Luocha get destroyed and his wife gets killed under his eyes, Yaoshi gave to him immortality and powers to become an Emanator of Abundance. Luocha asks to resuscitated his wife, but Yaoshi tells that THEY will do that if Luocha destroys one of the different boats of the Xianzhou Alliance. But Luocha, who was a doctor in his original planet, cannot do that. But the time past, and he couldn't do that... But Yaoshi implants an sort of mara in him, like an evil spirit, so Luocha decided something.
I imagine that Luocha create a another corpse/puppet with remains of different corpses, and transverse the evil part of him in this, but not his powers and his immortality, to trying to find an another way to resuscitate his wife. He create a coffin with powers of Abundance for conserve the corpse of his love, and decided to leave the Abundance, and became a interstellar merchant for trying to discover how to resuscitate his wife.
But Yaoshi couldn't accept that. So THEY gave powers and life to the puppet contained Rakshasa, and THEY gave immortality. And Rakshasa became an Emanator of Yaoshi, for avenge him and Yaoshi. But because he was born from Luocha spirit, he has his savior of doctor.
Rakshasa tries, with Shuhu and the living planet Rahu, to destroy the Shìjiè-Chuán. But the Stellar Queen fought him, and "kill him". But Rakshasa false his death, and he takes with him the remains of Shuhu.
Rakshasa is known for his cannibalism and for his experiences. He's like a Dottore in term of personality, but more crazy and more psychopathic.
The Yamato-Shinigami and the divine spirits of the Hunt :
So, what is the Yamato-Shinigami ?
This saber is an odachi created by Lan, to purge the Abominations and for the Emanators of Lan. So, Lan created this saber with a galaxy and imaginary energy for this first Emanator, but when he dies, Lan hid the saber in the Shìjiè-Chuán for the next Emanator... A long time ago, Rei meditated in the Stellar Garden after the death of his mother, and the Yamato has called him. Since this event, he and the Yamato are lied and the odachi is his saber.
Lan doesn't choose the Carrier of the Yamato, but it's the saber himself who choose his owner. The saber has only two owners in his life : The first Emanator of Lan and Rei.
Lan doesn't place the powers he gives to his Emanator in the Emanator, he place the powers in the Yamato. More the Emanator does miracles and heroics acts, more the Emanator gain the power. Actually, Rei have 100% of his powers, but there is a state more powerful : the Resonance.The Resonance is a phenomenon that caused when the willpower of the Emanator and the willpower of the Yamato are the same, and the power of the Emanator are increase so much that the people say when the Fallen King reach this state temporary, he becomes powerful as a Aeon.
But this state can be permanent, if the willpower of Rei became so strong that him and the Yamato become just one. The spirit in the saber changes his form according to who is the person who meet him. And he doesn't fight, the spirit of the Yamato-Shinigami doesn't fight with Emanators. The Yamato measure ~225 cm/~7,3 feet, and his pound is unknown. (The pound depend of who carries the blade. Very light for the carrier but very heavy for the other)
But what are the divine spirits of the Hunt ?
Do you know the Lighting Lord ? I think yes.>! In the lore, it's "said" and showed that the past General of the Luofu, Teng Xiao, uses the Lightning Lord, like Jing Yuan. But not the same sword, because of the Starfall Reverie has been forged by Blade when he was Yingxing.!< So I imagined that :
The first Generals, when they passed away, Lan take there spirits and gives a lot of power. Since the creations of these spirits, they are give to the Generals, until they choose to retire. Then, it's give to the next Generals, and this cycle is repeated. These spirits are unlike of the spirit of the Yamato, because they don't give their powers and doesn't are in a weapon. Plus, the spirit of the Yamato can't fight with his carrier.
Technically, the General Arbiters are Emanators, like Rei, but the divine spirits changes all. Rei does have powers of Lan/The Hunt and he has the Yamato-Shinigami, but if he fights without, he changes nothing (just the fact that the Yamato uses as a multiplying for the slashes. But if the Generals fights without the spirits, it would changes. (it's a theory/created lore, so please, not rude in comments !)
So the divine spirits would be like the reasons why the Generals of the Hunt are considered as Emanators.
So, now, I think the first part is finish... Let's go to the second part !

Second part :

The relics :
For the relics, I imagine some relics and some planet ornaments :
1 : Set of the Tearful Child of the Moon :
Memories of the Moon's Child : Beyond dreams, the tearful child of the Moon remembers his mother during the day, and finds her again at night. The child of the Moon is said to protect his mother from nightmarish creatures as she searches for her lost husband among the stars.
Protective cuddly toy of the Moon's Child : Beyond dreams, the tearful child of the Moon protects his mother with his teddy bear during the day, and finds her again at night. It is said that the child of the Moon is always accompanied by his faithful teddy bear, which the Sun himself is said to have woven for him.
Moon's Child pajamas : Beyond dreams, the tearful child of the Moon protects his mother and walks the land by day, and finds her at night. The Moon Child is said to always be dressed in extremely light blue pajamas, and to protect him from any enemies he may encounter.
Warmth of the Moon's Child : Beyond dreams, the tearful child of the Moon protects his mother, the Moon, during the day, and joyfully reunites with her at night. It is said that the child of the Moon never despairs because of a gift from his mother, his maternal love.

?.4 : Elio (first phase) 5 star Preservation ; Thunder (can change)/ Styx (second phase) 5 star Erudition ; Quantum.
So, who is Xixian ?
Xixian is the Lieutenant of the Shìjiè-Chuán. She's around 60, and she's a long-life specie. She wears a artificial arm, because Rakshasa cut off her arm during the battle of the Shìjiè-Chuán. She trusts the Fallen King and the Stellar Queen, but she's a little overprotective in them.
Xixian is a character of the Harmony who can increase different stats depending on the Path of the character. If it's a Destruction/Hunt/Erudition character, she can increase CRIT DMGS and ATK. If it's a Preservation character, she can increase DEF. If it's a Nihility character, she can increase the Effect Hit Rate and the DoT DMGS. If it's a Abundance character, she can increase the Outgoing Healing Boost. And if it's a Harmony character, she can increase ERR. Her bonus can last for 1 turn. Her ultimate can increase the duration of the bonus of the characters to 2 more turns.
So, who is Yuen ?
Yuen is one of the Ten Lords. Nicknamed as the Erudite, she's the most younger person named in the post of one of the Ten Lords. Despite the fact she's still a child/teenager, she's very wise and intelligent, and she's a very good strategist.
Yuen is a character of the Erudition that inflict wind DMGS. Her technique and her ultimate would change with her talent, Condensation. For example, less enemies are here, more DMGS are inflict : 5-4 enemies in the battlefield : Effect Zone ; 3 enemies in the battlefield : Burst ; 2 - 1 enemies in the battlefield : Unique target. But don't worry, you can choose what type of attack the skill does. Her talent can also increases her CRIT DMGS and ATK.
So, who is Rakshasa ?
Rakshasa is an Emanator of the Abundance, and he was the evil part of Luocha. His body was simply a puppet, but Yaoshi make his body organic... So he would be very flexible. He would fight with needle-gloves.
Rakshasa is a character of the Abundance who can heal... But with a particular way ! So, all the allies have a effect at the beginning of the battle : "Holy Sacrifice", who is his talent. When a character lost HP, the Holy Sacrifice absorbs his loss of HP, until a limit. The skill of Luocha can release the Holy Sacrifice for heals the ally, and makes the effect reborn. Release the Holy Sacrifice can increase the DMGS and the ATK of Rakshasa. Also, his talent take some allies's HP in each turn to increases the Holy Sacrifice. His ultimate, who would be an Burst, can uses the HP of the allies to increase the DMGS and the CRIT DMGS of Rakshasa, and then, he attacks the enemy/enemies. Then, he releases the Holy Sacrifice of all the characters to heal them.
His VA would be the same of Luocha, Craig Lee Thomas.
So, who is Hua ?
Hua is a sort of Marshal of Xianzhou. Even if in public, she appears as the Marshal, she's in reality the future General of the Cangcheng, and she possesses the divine spirit of the boat, the Inferno-Empress. Her nickname is the Fenghuang.
The Inferno-Empress would appears like a gigantic phoenix.
Hua is a character of the Destruction who deals Fire DMGS, but also Super Break Effect. So, the Inferno-Empress would be like the Lightning-Lord, but when shes uses her ultimate, the Inferno-Empress merges with her and she enters in the "Fenghuang" state. When she's in this state, every attack that Hua uses consumes her HP. But, each time that her HP get consumed, her Break Effect increase. The state lasts for 2 turns, and she inflects Super Break Effect. At the end, a sort of a ultimate attack is trigger and all the HP (even the HP that are not here, for example, if her max HP is 10000, but she only has 8000 HP, then her HP are going to be in -2000) are consumed and the Break Effect is increase in a certain value for each 500 HP that are consume, and she inflicts DMGS and Super Break Effect for the enemies who are in Weakness Break. She cans heal herself with the DMGS that she has done, but the heal cannot exceed 75% of her HP ! The Inferno-Empress deals Fire DMGS, and Super Break Effect to the enemies who are in Weakness Break.
So, who is Xingxing ?
Xingxing is one of the two Marshals of Xianzhou, the Stellar Queen, an Emanator of the Erudition, an Eclairor of the Nihility and one of the Ten Lords. She's the possessor of the Stellar Marks, a gift of the Erudition who can permits to create micro-stars and stellar flames to fight. With the power of the Nihility, she create black holes also for fight.
She's 17 years old, and she would uses the same model as for March !
Xingxing is a character of the Nihility who deals Fire DMGS. She cans add more DoT on enemies who already have DoT with her special DoT : Starburn, who can also inflects Burn. Starburn is inflect to the enemies with her skill and her ultimate. She can also reach multiple enemies because she does effect zone attacks. Her talent can increases the DoT DMGS she does to the enemies depending on their HP.
Her VA would be Judy Alice Lee (VA of Melinoë).
So, who is Rei ?
Rei is one of the two Marshals of Xianzhou, the Carrier of the Yamato-Shinigami, the unique Emanator of the Hunt, the chief of the Galaxy Rangers and one of the Ten Lords. Anyway, he's a very important person of the Xianzhou Alliance. He's from a forgotten planet, who has been destroyed by the Abundance. Rescued by the past Marshal, Lingyue when he was six years old, he quickly became one of the greatest fighter of the Alliance at his teenage years.
He is 19 years old, and he is around 1m96/~6,43 feet. (so I think he's one of the most tall character.). He's VERY muscular, and very handsome (according to me)
Rei is a Hunt character (an Emanator of this path) who deals Imaginary DMGS. His gameplay would be concentrate in the CRIT DMGS. Depending on the attacks, it's giving to him "Fallen Royalty" accumulations. When he has a certain number of this accumulation, he entering in the "Fallen King" state, who increased his CRIT rate and his CRIT DMGS and reinforce his skill and his ultimate. For his ultimate, it increases his CRIT rate and his CRIT DMGS, and he gives 9 slashes to the enemy. When he's in the "Fallen King" state, it's would increase his CRIT rate and CRIT DMGS, also gives XIII (4, 4, and 5) slashes to an enemy. For each slash that are a CRIT hit, an additional slash is inflect. Each additional slash increases the Rei's CRIT DMGS, and they do a CRIT vulnerability. If all the all the additional slashes has been concluded, then a last additional slash is inflect. When he does CRIT DMGS when he uses his ultimate in the "Fallen King" state, it's does another hit in the enemy.
Here is his description :
"One of the two Marshals of the Xianzhou Alliance, the Carrier of the Yamato, the Emanator of Lan and the Fallen King. Feared by his enemies, respected by his allies. He always wears a fickle smile, and he always brings death with him.
Lan, the Reignbow Arbiter entrust the Yamato to Rei, the greatest weapon of all the Alliance. As a great strategist, he's also a good brother. He knows all the Stellaron Hunters, and he's apparently in a relation with the Stellaron Hunter named Blade..."
His VA would be Kaiji Tang (the VA of Gojo).
So, who is Shuhu ?
Shuhu is an Emanator of Yaoshi, considered as the "daughter of the Abundance". She's always with a scythe made with the body of Yaoshi and with the bones of her victims. She has a very sense of the sadism and she hates the humanity for all they have done to her.
Shuhu is a character of the Abundance who deals Quantum DMGS. She has three skills : One where she consumes the HP of the allies for increase DMGS and CRIT DMGS, and she attacks the enemies. An other where she consumes her HP for increase DMGS and CRIT DMGS, and where she attacks the enemies. And the last where she attacks the enemies for steal the HP of the enemies for heals her and the allies. In her ultimate, she consumes her HP and the allies's HP for increase her DMGS, her CRIT DMGS and her CRIT rate, and she attacks the enemies for steal the enemies's HP and heals the allies.
So, who is Athena ?
Athena is one of the Ten Lords, nicknamed as the Protector. She's always with a owl named Zhìhuì (nb : wisdom in Chinese (智慧)), and is a real master of the strategy and the war inventions, but she's also one of the more oldest members of the Ten Lords.
Athena is a character of the Harmony who can increase the DMGS and the ATK of the allies with her skill. Her talent can increase all the allies's RES PEN and their SPD. Her ultimate can increase all the allies's CRIT DMGS for 2 turns, for a chosen ally, she cans place her owl for 2 turns, who inflict additional DMGS on the enemy/enemies who the ally attacks. Also, if the ally get attack, the owl defend them with a counterattack.
So, who is Elio ?
Elio is the chef of the Stellaron Hunters (and if you don't know that, you must haven't touch HSR). I imagine him as a cat (practically not imagine, because it's quite official, but not official, so you know), but he uses his puppet... I doesn't draw him because I know that his design already be... You know what. I imagine him very kind and mysterious.
Elio is a character of the Preservation who can predict the DMGS of the allies. His skill would be a shield. For his ultimate, it's would add a status for all the allies and him : "Forecast of the Script". This effect would last one turn, and would cancel all the DMGS the allies receive.
So, who is Styx ?
AH-HAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA ! You have to wait !

Fourth part :

The history would be in the Shìjiè-Chuán, and here is the principal plot :
First quest : " You and the Astral Express receive a mysterious call of Jing Yuan, who telling you that he have something important to said to you. The thing in question is that is a feast for the "saviors of the Luofu" (the Nameless) in the... Shìjiè-Chuán ?! Not time for chatting, Jing Yuan gives you the localisation of the mysterious ship, and the Astral Express start his new journey... "
Second quest : " After a few warp jumps, you finally reach the Shìjiè-Chuán, capital of the Xianzhou Alliance. After meet all of the Generals and the Lieutenant Xixian, it's finally the time for you to meet the Ten Lords, including the Fallen King and the Stellar Queen, real Marshals of the Alliance... "
Other quests...? You have to play~
The quest would be a quest long as Penacony... Maybe a little more... And there would be all the Nameless... Yes, Pom-Pom in the quest and he would use his powers ! If he has powers.
In the final boss of the Shìjiè-Chuán, the music would be like, if it's possible, of the song "Bad Apple". In the battle, the people singing for encouraging the ones who are fighting the final boss.
In the 1st phase, it's would be only the divine spirits who singing.
In the 2nd phase, it's would be all the soldiers and the divines spirits who singing.
In the 3rd and the final phase, it's would be all Xianzhou Alliance (yes, Lan included too !) who singing.
The "R" attack ( like the Dan Heng attack during the Phantylia fight ) would be all the divine spirits and the two Marshals conferring their power to the Trailblazer, and then, he/she slashes the boss.
So, it's the end of the post... If you have questions for clarify something, you can in comments, and I would be respond with pleasure !
Bye byeeeeee !

2024.05.21 01:47 Tough_Combination317 The dream catcher

For context I am now 17 F but at the time of this I was around the age of 12 or 13. Around this time my family moved into a new state and we were far from all other family. I also have had other paranormal experiences but only one other was this extreme.
Sometime after moving into this new state, we got the news that my grandparents were visiting from Mexico and they were going to be staying in California with my aunt. We barely get to see our grandparents and we couldn't pass up the opportunity to see them so we decided to pack enough clothes for a week and drive to California. This was kind of a big deal since we live in the mid south so this was going to be a 2 day drive. Fast forward during our visit to my aunts house in California, My dad discovered that the truck he used to own back in the 90's was parked in her garage. My aunt agreed to let him take it home and he decided he was gonna drive with my little brother in the passenger seat, and my mom, my sister, my baby brother and me were all gonna drive in our other car. On the last day there we packed our stuff and we started our drive in our separate cars. We had been driving for about 5 hours and my dad called and told my mom saying he was gonna pull over to rest because he wasn't feeling well. My mom decides we're gonna pull over at the very next stop we saw even though we were in the middle of the Arizona desert. In the area that we were driving in there was a lot of signs that advertised native shopping centers and like little tour areas. We ended up pulling over in front of a huge canyon were we saw a very old gas station, an abandoned building that said saloon and an enormous tipi. My and my sister asked my mom if we could walk around and stretch our legs and she agreed and said she would come with us. My mom, me and all my siblings are walking around taking pictures and we end up in front of this huge tipi. This tipi had doors like the ones at a regular corner store so we walk in and see it is a whole gift shop. They sold everything from cactuses, wooden toys, bow and arrows, stones, different kinds of sands, traditional clothing, necklaces, like the whole 9 yards. And of course there are natives that are running the store watching us walk around since we were the only ones inside and outside of the store. This place was completely isolated and we really thought it was all abandoned at first but we ended up being pretty amazed by everything they had on display. I ended up walking into the middle of the store were they sold these beautiful dream catchers and I was immediately obsessed. I didn't suffer from nightmares or anything like that but they just looked so beautiful and I had never seen one in person. I convinced my mom to get me and my sister one of the smaller ones are she agreed even though they were pricey. When we get to the register the lady starts scanning our stuff like normal and she is gushing about how cute the dream catcher I chose is in broken English.Before she hands it to me in a bag she leans over the counter and tells me that I needed to do a ritual to get it started and she could help me if I wanted to, and once the dream catcher was done collecting my nightmares I needed to do another ritual to cleanse it so it could work like normal again. This caught me very off guard and I looked up at my mom who was just as confused as me and she told the lady, no, it's okay, just for decoration. (Also in broken English), and the native lady purses her lips and doesn't say anything else and we walk back to the car. My dad says he's well enough to continue until it gets dark so we did just that and everything was normal until we made it back home. Once I was back home and got settled in, I tried to follow the instructions I could make out from her broken English and hung it over my bed. I decided it looked too plain and put LEDs around it- in a triangle... Yes I see that wasn't the smartest idea but I was 12 give me a break. I'm going to say that for the first 2 or 3 weeks I have the best sleep of my life and I am starting to belive that maybe the dream catcher does work and it isn't just a some kind of myth for kids to shut up and go to bed. Until the nightmares began. My nightmares started to get to intense that I would jolt awake, breathing heavily and sweating and I would have to keep the lights on to even be able to lay back down on my bed. I seriously never suspected anything from the dream catcher. I was dreaming I was getting chased by huge creatures, I was getting shot, I was being abused, assaulted, and just things a 12 year old shouldn't be dreaming about. Eventually these dreams began to feel so real I had no idea what was real and what was a dream. I would wake up in my dream to see lights being flickered, things being thrown, doors opening, and when I closed my eyes I would be back in the position I had previously woken up in the dream. I began to stay awake at night with the lights on, and one night my sister had fallen asleep against the wall in my room and the painting hung above her began to swing until one fell on top of her. After that, I began to see things while I was awake. And I knew I was awake because I could no longer sleep, and when I did sleep I would have sleep paralysis episodes where I felt someone on top of me or someone sitting next to me. And one day, I had another smart idea to watch this movie on Netflix called Come Play( I think). And in this movie there is this creature that torments a child. A tall bony creature with sulken eyes named Larry. And this specific night, I could not sleep (wow, surprise surprise). I ended up getting so fed up about not sleeping that I got up, grapped my blanket and a pillow and walked over to the couch and lied down facing the door to my bedroom. In my living room there is a movement detecting light thing that plugs into the wall, but it remains dim even if there isn't any movement. So here I was in the dim light looking around, waiting for sleep to maybe even cross through my mind. I'm looking towards the ceiling and my eyes drift to the area above my bedroom door. And I see Larry. No joke. I really can't make this stuff up. There he was just poking his head out of my room. I could only see the top of his hear and his eyes, looking at me. I saw his long bony fingers holding the wall and he is almost touching the ceiling, he is about 7 feet tall and he's just there chillin. If I am being completely honest, I wasn't scared of him. I was mad. I was mad he wouldn't let me sleep, I was mad he had the nerve to show himself after keeping me up and paralyzing me T night I was so angry he wouldn't leave me alone. So look at him dead in the eyes, and out loud I say, "leave me alone, wtf do you want?". He slowly moved his head inside the room without making any noise and I just lay there, so fed up until I end up falling asleep. When I wake up it is around dawn so I go into my own room and fall asleep. What pushed me over the edge was when I had a horrible nightmare that I couldn't wake up from and I was screaming and and shaking my sister awake and she was screaming at me to cut it out and I felt so much despair in that moment that I ended up waking up, just to have another sleep paralysis episode. The second I was able to move I ran out of the room and into my parents room. I told my dad everything I and he let me sleep next to my mom for the night, the whole night i saw a mini Larry walking around the room and staring at me and I began to be scared. I didn't get a wink of sleep and I was beginning to deteriorate in physical appearance. In the morning, my mom storms into my room and tears down all of my red bracelets I had for "protection" any zodiac sign design, any stones and she took one look at my dream catcher and ripped it off the wall. She walked in literally a minute later and replaced it with a cross ( which is still there) and puts a rosary under my pillow. She tells me that's what I get for buying things from people I don't know and watching things I shouldn't be watching. Although I was startled, I listened to her and recited the prayers she taught before going to bed. Believe it or not, that was the first time in months I had a full night's rest. I slept like a baby and I had the most beautiful calming dreams. I dont know how to explain the peace and quiet in my mind that night. I felt at peace. This went on for a couple of weeks until I decide to clean my room. I'm going through my drawers and low and behold, what do I find? The darn dream catcher. I grab it, run to the trash can and throw it out. After this everything has been calm and I've been able to sleep peacefully. I sometimes see things in the dark but I know how to put my mind at ease now. But I just wanted to share this story since I saw a video on tiktok about a native lady warning people about these kinds of things.
Also, a couple things: 1. This is NOT a racist post 2. I understand this was my fault for being ignorant 3. I am not blaming ANYTHING on ANYONE other than just saying this is what happened in these sequence of events
Thanks for reading :) (Sorry for the spelling, I had limited time)

Has anyone else done this or seen it done at Chappell concerts before? Since I assume the crowd will have plenty of lgbt ladies, I’m thinking of maybe making a few bracelets with my number ala Travis Kelce style lmao. Or is that too cringe? Help a girl out!

2024.05.20 23:02 historyhermann My new fan fic mini series set after the rivoting Hailey's On It s1 finale!

Fandom - Hailey's On It!
Rating - Teen and Up
Title of fic 1 - So put another dime in the jukebox, baby
Title of fic 2 - He's got a way that makes me tremble
Genres - Emotional Hurt/Comfort
Summary - [In Part 1,] After Hailey refused to have her life dictated by the list, and Beta, she went out with Sanjay at the school dance. Quickly thereafter she realized that she didn't have the chemistry with him that she thought. Refusing to go back to her old life, make up with Scott (and admit she had feelings for him) or tell everyone she was wrong all along, she skipped town, and left her bracelet behind, showing she no longer wanted to be bound to completing list items. Meanwhile, Scott and Beta try to put the pieces together, fighting off the chaos bots, and are unsure how they can convince Hailey to finish the list. [in Part 2,] Hailey wakes up in a hospital after her fall in the woods and tries to recover from her injuries. She resolves to apologize and make amends for what she did with Sanjay, breaking the friendship with Scott, and pushing away Beta, and the list. However, things will not be the same as before.
A/N- I wrote these fics for the album challenge, the first one of the Lyrical Titles community, on Dreamwidth, this year. I was fired up after watching the season 1 finale, for now, that I wrote both of these fics in a short time period.

2024.05.20 21:40 mango_novelle In a search for partner for MxM, MxF friendship/family saving fantasy world

I was thinking of trying my luck here to find some roleplaying partner(possibly only one) so yeah first few things about me; I am 20y old woman and I have roleplayed several years so I am looking for some woman too with a little experience HOWEVER most importantly English is not my first language and I haven't written fully in english before, dialogs sometimes so if you are okay with that by any means continue reading.
(Immediatly as I started to write this post I feel like all my thoughts disappeared...how typical..)
Okay few things before to the actual plots:
Discord only (I would wanna create a channel in there for this)
18+ and you are able to handle a brutal topics
I write on 3rd person and in past tense which I prefer from you but am flexible with. I play male characters only(aside from side characters ofc) but depending on the plot I don't really mind is yours a male or female
My writing length varies quite much also mirroring how my partner writes but right now I feel like it would be nice to write in chat type so like somewhere <100 to 200 words as I feel like work and overall life keeps me quite busy and writing little shorter would lower the verge to answer if don't have much time. Still even tho I want quite relaxed tempo I aim to answer daily at least once, hoping from you the same, and in every aswer I hope there is something to react and it still moves the moment forward. Also with the shortness I sometimes feel like I can cling to the moment at hand more, because some players sometimes move the game forward whit such a fast tempo that I feel like I can't quite get all the things out of some moment as it would be possible. I am highly capable to write from 5-8k words and more and is possible that it happens if I get carried away with the plot and all so I would not mind if you bend to that aswell.
Also something which can affect our playing pace is time zone. Mine is currently UTC +3/EEST so even tho overlapping time zones would be nice I don't have any requirements for this.
I obviously hope that you are interested in plotting the game and contributing to it by also playing side characters. I am not much of a drawer so I mainly use pics for example from pinterest to my characters and also to their outfits or locations as sometimes the picture of some place is different in our minds so a pic can clear that. Communication is key and recommended to get us through any problems.
Just bare with me this one moment more...
So as the title says our characters would be friends (depends on the plot enemies to friends too) or family members (siblings) and it would be nice to be set somewhere in the historical times (castles, empires, kingdoms) but as the world might be our own creation I am not gonna nitpick in the terms of accuracy as I want to hand pick the nice features what to have and especially when there will be twist of fantasy(so they are not realistic anyway). This is few plots (very shapeless ones tho) I have in mind but I will be flexible and open for suggestions as these have also been just some thoughts in my head and possible partner has not been in my mind so they may seem unfair:
Two brothers which older one is gifted with good magic and yonger one (played by me) with badBecause they are born in the royal family the older one gets the crown and yonger one is send to be advisor to neighbouring kingdom. But after a unofrtunate event he rises to be king of that kingdom and at the same time there is impending doom (not sure what that would be yet) of the whole world knocking the door which lead the rivalring siblings having to work together to stop it. I also thought that people with the gift of magic are born very rarely and that there would be only enough that all the kingdoms would have one or two as advisors and that all of them would get a vision of that doom as protectors of the world and humanity so they would also have some gifted counsel where they could have meetings and all. I have few details left out from this still but this whole post is already getting so long...XD
Other plot would be powerfull and immortal wizard(played by me) and hunter trying to save the world or more like wizard trying to save all the witches and hunter the rest. Roughly I thought that long ago some witch ancestors would in order to save the witches because they are being hunted make sure that in the future there would be born an all powerfull leader who would lead all the covens. So then he was born but people terrified of witches overpowering them started searching for that leader, found him and trapped him so he would not learn any magic as killing him was not possible. But obv that would not stop him. He learned everthing he needed to know through sleep and visions, broke free of his prison and started his reign as the leader of all covens. So as he is immortal and powerfull to make the plot interesting I was thinking that there would be ways he can be weakened with various techniques like magic preventing bracelets, weapons and places and all of those to make him dependent to the human hunter character which I would prefer to be male but okay whit woman too.
Then there is also lot of other plots of some sort which I would like, for example some assasinXsome law person (I love AC games) in some medieval times with fantasy twist and possible revolutions agains current crown and I like in those to play the one in the other side of law, also some wild west type of plot would be interesting.
Huh maybe that was all so if you are interested in one of those plots or something similar to them with the friendship/family setting message me and lets see if we click together and are able to create something we can both enjoy!

Y'all I love the friendship bracelet culture permeating every concert experience now. I parked at the venue and saw 4 girls getting out of a red car so I ran up to them and introduced myself and we swapped friendship bracelets. Fast forward to the end of the show and I've drunkenly decided it's my mission to make sure they all get out safe and my partner is in absolutely no rush to fight traffic out of the lot anyway so we're hanging out regardless. When the 4 of them finally walked out of the venue and we noticed each other there was a lot of screaming and I love you's and they remembered my name even though I didn't catch any of theirs. If any of you are on reddit, I hope you all made it home safe! Also, if anybody here was lined up in the very back of the first lot listening to TFB in your car while trying to drive out, and someone in a black dress and red checkered vans with a rose and a ponytail started singing to you and vibing with you, hi it was me. My tall partner was walking faster than me and I was having a fantastic time dillydallying with all of you. I always make concert friends when seeing TFB and y'all make the memories even better.
