GTS 001 - Quarantine Alpha

Image
  Quarantine Alpha Evocation Get a piece of the biggest psychic mushroom’s brain to try and obfuscate thought energy. Caves that wrap around the surface of an immobile asteroid. Myconids Setting: A lavender asteroid coated in a deep orange fungal growth. The asteroid is stationary relative to the solar system. It is close enough to the sun that it should have fallen into the sun a long time ago. Deep craters intersect a network of tunnels beneath the surface and serve as massive skylights and windows out to the blackness of space. The spherical nature of the asteroid is represented by an unwrapped icosahedron with a hexagonal grid. Each face is a triangle, and has three tunnels off to adjacent rooms. The party teleports into the largest cave that perforates this asteroid. A five foot hollow brass sphere carved with swirling patterns lays motionless in a cradle made of carved stone and metal plates. Through the many swirling slashes in the surface a single rod can be found suspended i

D&D - Grave Robbing or Grand Theft Souls

  Grave Robbing  A Lich accused of soul-trafficking flees across planar lines. An apollopunk spelljammer adventure framework for levels 1-5(?)  The Night of the Grim Star "Your Majesty," his whisper rung out like the polishing of funeral bells, "I bring you grim news. Your new star is no blessing."  King Thalor stared back unblinking into the petitioner’s glowing green eyes. “Why should I believe you, stranger?”  “I was a King once.” Pulling back his hood, Malachor revealed his skeletal features. Among Gasps he pulled out a vial of sand from his robes he poured it on the floor. Each grain began swirling and twisting into the shape of a castle, until every parapet and arch was visible “Like you I saw the star. Our church prayed and communed, and learned of their judgment. Our most powerful witches, arcanists, and clerics worked together to plead for mercy. I had just enough time to cast a spell to save my people from this so-called retribution.” The sand formed a lar

The Watchlist - A social tool

I have a "to Watch" list that is populated through recommendations that come up in conversation. It is so long that it is overwhelming to look at. I realized that this document is actually a way to make others feel heard, because I do care about their recommendations, but I don't have enough time or resources to watch that movie. Does anyone else have a watch list, or a read list that is more for the benefit of others than yourself?

Really tightening up the ole brand.

Hooboy I got a lot of shit going on. I have a youtube, I have a soundcloud (largely dormant) artstation. I have my own linktree, and I have a carrd, and I need to make sure they all link to eachother, and here? I guess. From the future: Also wow, I have made some cringey posts on here. This is my personal blog. If I wanna tighten it up.... who is that for? Do I wanna be professional? Cause I feel like I have definitely grown since then. I don't want to be marketable, necessarily, but I also want to say I no longer stand by a lot of the crap I said.

I was today years old...

When I learned that most application processing softwares drop resumes with hyperlinks in them. Looks like it's back to the drawing board for 'ole Emmett.

Fuck your Metaverse and fuck your tokens

Image
Man I am sick of hearing about this shit. I do think the metaverse is inevitable (and I am stoked for it) but the way everyone is talking about it is all wrong. Why buy things in the metaverse? Firstly let's talk about real estate. places like Metaverse Properties have begun brokering real estate deals in people's various platforms. This is stupid for three reasons. Being in a space in the real world has value for a number of reasons. You'll have a presence that people can see from the street. People will see you exist getting dog-food, on their commutes or hanging out downtown on late nights. You could be next to other cool businesses or locations and the cross-polination of foot traffic could benefit you both. Lastly the exclusivity of space that means your competitor can't inhabit that spot. In existing metaverse type platforms it operates far more like a game than real life. If you want to go someplace you open up a search bar, type the place you wanna go, select
