Did I mention I love dragons?

Holy fuck

This works best if you keep windows closed.

Another design is using 2 20x25x1 filters, taping them to the sides of the box fan and then to each other so they sort of make a triangle, then cutting cardboard to make a top and bottom to the triangle.

This was discovered as a more effective design during the 2020 US west coast fires.

If you live on the west coast of the United States, fire season is coming and this is vital.

We’ve been using one, and they’re great. Might try to make the double filter version this year.

theyve been doing a bunch of studies on this during the pandemic and this design is best! 4 filters and a shroud to optimize flow rate.

let’s meet where the falling star bit the earth

I want a da2 fic where the gang keep on defending each other from outsiders BUT the catch is they keep making increasingly more bizzare and comedic cover ups of this because, sure, Fenris will beat the shit out of someone who calls Merrill a monster and a blood mage but he WILL NOT have Merrill know about this herself. Similarly Anders will absolutely go fucked up crazy against someone who calls Fenris a slave but MAKER FORBID fenris find out that Anders cares. Isabela WILL cut a bitch for making fun of their resident chantry boy Sebastian but if SEBASTIAN found out he'd just try and like...convert her or thank her and she's not sure which is worse so he CANT KNOW. Aveline hears someone calls Isabela a whore and she ends up locking them in a holding cell for a night but if Isabela knew she'd done that she'd be INSUFFERABLE so nope, this person is locked up for genuine and meaningful reasons. and it just gets increasingly more ridiculous and Varric is just sat in the corner seeing ALL and finding it incredibly funny (and good content for his next books)

love when characters have to have a domestication arc before you can even consider giving them a redemption arc

One of my darker pieces from Folktale Week.⁠ Kelpies are Scottish shape-shifting fey of lakes and rivers. Sometimes a man and sometimes a horse and never to be trusted.⁠

Every time I see that post about how Excalibur and Caliburn are different swords, and Excalibur is the sword given by the Lady in the Lake, and Caliburn is the sword in the stone, I just sit there shaking my head, because everyone on it is so earnest, and certain of their rightness, and frustrated with everybody else being Wrong about Arthurian myth, and they are all just as wrong as the people they are trying to correct.

Excalibur and Caliburn are two words for the same sword, both derived from the Welsh Caledfwlch. Caliburn (or Caliburnus) is the Latinization, and Excalibur is the Old French version. Sometimes this sword is the sword in the stone, and sometimes it’s given by the Lady in the Lake. Sometimes there is a sword in the stone, and sometimes there isn’t. Sometimes there is a Lady in the Lake and sometimes there isn’t. Arthurian myth, like all myths, doesn’t have a single definitive version. It’s a grab bag of many related stories told by many different people, that don’t fit together into any kind of cohesive whole, and that often contradict each other. Every one of us gets to pick the bits and pieces to stitch together into the version we like best.

So Excalibur and Caliburn can be two different swords, or one sword. There can be a sword in the stone, or a Lady in the Lake, or both. It’s up to you. And no one version is the right one, but also none of them are wrong.

This is the kind of excellent Arthurian discourse I came to tumblr for.

@oft-goes-awry​ is absolutely correct. 

#AND NEITHER ONE#is a sensible basis for a system of government!

Sketching Zevran and my Warden Brosca 💞

Wanted to draw a Little Fjord, as he was discovering his love of the ocean. And as the ocean was discovering its love of him. :)

it's kinda fucked up we don't have real enchanted jewelry like i wanna go to micheals and buy a ring that makes my pens use 10% less ink when i wear it or something

why are magic words so satisfying… arcane, tome, enchant, conjure, sorcery, spellbound, cast, charge, grimoire..

Evoke, divination, pentacle, bisexual, ritual, abjuration..

yeah i work in graphic design *building gradients in minecraft*

here they are btw

One D&D spell I think is underused is Legend Lore, it has so much cool potential for worldbuilding

It's perfect to deliver Dark Souls style item descriptions. Someone examines the sword they found in the dungeon and then you get to tell them about King Big Sad Guy
