A wip of a kneeling Mk II space marine mini with a bolt pistol and a pair of binoculars in Heresy-era Space Wolves colors
The section of FFX where you have to mercy kill your Aeons. Yuna stands with her back to the screen, and to the left a selection list displays the names Atsede, Arknighs, Quill, Chappell, BajaBlst, and Peewee
Jim Downey, as pictured in a Conan skit where he expresses confusion over why people are so angry with "Jeffery Epst*in, the Financier?" The image has instead been captioned "The Arditi??? From Battlefield 1???" Also if censoring that word doesn't evade the resistlib bots Im nuking the world
A Veteran Bombard takes aim and targets four entire PCs along with an escort objective in one massive blast. It misses everyone badly except for Stazja (callsign Rayet) and the escort objective
Crude drawing of a girl thinking “based based based based” but instead simply saying “wow” because the former sentiment is not socially acceptable.
Duclinea, a woman with ginger hair, stands with her back to the viewer in a big pink jacket, black pants, and high white boots, her expression one of resolute determination. A blue armband is wrapped around her left bicep as she levels a rapier towards the horizon, her blade almost glowing blue. Tendrils of a pink and green aurora curl up and around her and flow out in the direction of the blade, a representation of the will and spirit flowing through her. Her right hand rests on the handle of a cane
Picard in a silly looking metal mask that covers his eyes and forehead.
a bumper sticker reading "my girlfriend's husband fights for your freedom" except the army logo has been replaced by GTA VI

Artwork of dogs playing together from Dog Thoughts, by Anna Haifinch
A closeup of a white, featureless mask with cyan eye markings and eye holes shaped in a gleeful expression. The mask's wearer has pushed it up to the left over a mane of messy hair, and a tearful eye is visible. The scene is bathed in red light.

A quick and dirty sketch of Stazja with her hair bound into a bun as she looks to her left with a nervous and guilty expression. To its left, its NHP companion Antheia (an older woman with an overlay of seven extra eyes beside her face) exclaims “you missed???”
A copy of TES IV Oblivion in a games shelf.
A big green beetly mobile suit on a flight stand. She has two laser swords and four giant winglike shields on armatures that make her absolutely massive and unwieldy to balance

“Yup, that’s me!” She flashed her trademark, cheery grin – bright as sunshine, even with her pointed canines. “But, really, I’m not here to be a stage presence, I’m just here to be part of the community. So you can call me Stazja for now, okay?” Which would, hopefully, draw less attention than her stage name. When the teens continued to stare, it added “Um, She/It!” and tapped a hand against its chest to emphasize the cue.

A page full of playlists of music for part 2 of Ironbound Shadows. It is too long to contain in alt text 😔
A kitbashed sprite from Retrograde Minis assets portraying a spindly black-and-red mech bulked out with heavy armoring, a thick collar, and a massive backpack unit. Its hawk-like head regards the viewer through a baleful red monoeye visor. One arm rests beside the hilt of a sheathed shortsword with a ringed pommel while the left gestures with taloned fingers to conjure the silhouette of a spectral energy shield. A spectral spear stands upright besides the mech, a serrated cord coiling like a serpent from the end of its haft, and green energy pours from the back of the backpack unit like a waterfall to cover the ground in a dark pool. The mech's frame bears green-and-blue iconography denoting its pilot's alliance to the Choral Defense Coalition, an SSC emblem on the left shoulder, and a small butterfly icon above the head unit's visor. The token's Size 2 background also includes the SSC logo, but with Union's at its center - its pilot may be bound to the wills of its company, but it has truly grown to become ThirdComm at heart.
A trio of extremely dripped out headless 40K sisters models. A sister superior points a mace to the left of the image while bracing a codemnor bolting in her left hand. A dialogus raises her hand in oration to the right while a sister with a massive fuck-off mace holds it in front of her in solemn vigil.
An Immolator tank model for 40k’s sisters of battle - it’s a big boxy tank with tons of fancy religious filigree, statuary, and a giant flamethrower turret whose operator is protected by a stained glass window. I’ve also added a bunch of chips and scratches and bullet holes.
Anabelle "Fisher" rolls a skill check - 1d20+4 with 1d6 bonus. She needs to beat a 10, and the odds are good! Instead, she rolls a 3 and a 1 to get a total of 8

Laminated flyer pushpinned to a community board. We see a photo of a coyote, and the text reads: HAVE YOU SEEN THIS DOG? [Coyote Image] DUMMY THAT'S A COYOTE OH MY GOD WHAT DO I DO???: —NO ACTION REQUIRED —IT IS WILDLIFE IN THE WILD (!) -HERE TO EAT DELICIOUS RODENT -LET HER COOK —NOT INTERESTED IN YOU, LOL GET OVER YOURSELF BABE;) —KEEP DOGS ON LEASH AND CATS INDOORS —(LIKE YOU SHOULD BE DOING ANYWAY) —YOTE IS A RESPECTED NEIGHBOR AND CRITTER CONTROL PROFESSIONAL <3
A stick figure sketch of a figure standing with their back to the viewer. They look to the right, left arm extended to level a sword towards the horizon in a look of resolute determination. Their right hand holds the hand of a cane.
A sketch of a fox-tailed figure looming over her partner as they both lay on the couch, her knees planted between his legs and her hands resting on either side of his body. The fox-tailed figure has a flirty expression while her partner, who she is distracting from reading something, is blushing but interested.
A flyer about coyotes, but the coyote picture has been replaced by artwork of my OC, Stazja, by RosaMaltz. The text is as follows: Have you seen this dog? Dummy that's a coyote Oh my god what do I do???; -No action required -It is wildlife in the wild (!) -here to eat delicious rodent -let her cook -not interested in you, lol -get over yourself, babe ;) -keep dogs on leash and cats indoors -(like you should be doing anyway) -yote is a respected neighbor and critter control professional <3

Marcille Dungeon Meshi looking tormented and aghast
a two-page spread that acts as the chapter intro to Part 3 of Ironbound Shadows. It juxtaposes two paintings. On the left, a young woman leans into a towering bush with red flowers. She holds one up to her nose, her eyes closed and her head tilted up in a wistful expression. On the right, a monochrome depiction of a woman in billowing, regal attire as she strides through a castle courtyard with power and purpose. Masked figures in while bow in supplication on either side of her as one raises their sword in a gesture of fealty. Far in the background, a gathering of figures carrying torches can be seen at the distant end of a tunnel. It is unclear if they are servants as well, or a band in pursuit.
old edit of a cat looking up from a newspaper they're holding like they've remembered something important
A pixel art kitbash of Retrograde minis assets depicting a hunched, lanky mech, its armored body glowing red at the seams and from the center of its chest. The mech is a largely retro-looking purple, with red and yellow accents and metallic blue joints. Four lanky arms swing from the torso, tipped in fearsome claws. The top right forearm bulks out to house a charging energy weapon whose power crackles between outsized talons. The mech's faceless, eyeless head is long, marked by a flat yellow crest, and encircled with a needle-thin knight's grill that gives the illusion of big, grinning teeth. Technical layouts circle the mech's left arms, a revolver hangs from its waist, and its back houses a bulbous pack bristling with three columns of red quills. The mech is displayed on a light grey hexagon with dull red trim, and the icon of a hooked fish in gold on the top right. The blank area around the hexagon depicts the inky blue of space and is speckled with distant stars
A full photo of all ten novitiate squad members. Most of the rest are pretty untouched but there’s a flamer gal in here who’s coming along pretty well
A mini of a Sororitas Novitiate in white armor, a purple wimple, blue robes with burgundy inline, and matching cherry-tinted leathers. She holds a blue and burgundy banner bearing two stars and the name “Dione” in dried red.
Asakusa, a short teen girl in a camouflage hat, giving the viewer a shocked expression as she thinks “I beat Kanamori… in an argument!”
Edited panel from Way of the House Husband. A guy in casual wear cheerfully states "I've never gotten hype for battle anime in my life." Insert panels of Yakuza looking at him in shock, followed by a full panel in which the aura of the statement throws them away from him as if an explosion had hit. A note between panels adds "*excluding Chainsaw Man I guess".
Leva ‪@blueamaryllis.bsky.social‬ by age 25 you should have an anime girl and animal everyone associates you with so you can receive little tribute presents in your dm inbox
A page detailing a system of Narrative Conditions, which allows the GM to tie inflicted stress to an emotional condition. If the PC roleplays in various ways, they can remove this condition (and thus the Stress) by doing so. There's a lot of text here so I can't fit it all in the alt text aha
Animation of a guy in dark souls armor sternly telling the PoV “no time!”
Tidus, a young man with warm skin and blonde hair in a very early 2000s Square Enix outfit that can be best described as black leather overalls layered over a cropped hoodie, as depicted on the cover of Final Fantasy X. He stands thigh-deep in the sea off of a sandy coast and stares towards the sky with a big ol sword in his hand. It's a very pretty image.
A pair of Necron Immortals with brass bodies, deep blue armor, yellow sigils, and jade heads. Their guns are bronze with green energy coils and they both wade through a radioactive wasteland
A Novitiate duelist in blue, burgundy, and white approaching with a stoic expression. Her raised blades and the knee and foot of her boot are covered in blood.
Conditions When the PCs experience an emotional toll, the GM may choose to inflict a Condition instead of Stress. Conditions impose emotional turmoil, pushing the PC to act in a certain way. Taking Conditions also inflicts 2 Stress - but, when the Condition is healed, so is 2 Stress. PCs choose which Condition they take. They may be healed with moves such as Recover, voluntarily taking 1 Difficulty to reflect the stress of the condition, or by acting as the condition describes. [Keep an eye on if these feel undertuned. My hope is that reducing the drama will be beneficial, since you don't have to get as messy as Thirsty Sword Lesbians leans towards, as that might clash with Lancer's more team-focused concept.] Angry Something has you pissed. You seethe or lash out at others. Does your anger stem from someone else, or from yourself? Clear at the end of any scene in which you break something important to you or someone significant (object, trust, relationship) Frightened You're shooketh. Clear at the end of any scene in which you flee atense situation or abandon something (a friend, a plan, a principle, an important item) Guilty You're being super Catholic m. Clear at the end of any scene in which you make a sacrifice or take harm, blame, or penance for someone else because you believe you deserve it. Hopeless You got the Depression. Clear at the end of any scene in which you confront someone with your doubts, confide them to an enemy (whether you know it or not), or forgo something important to indulge. Insecure You're a creep, you're a weirdo...... clear at the end of any scene in which you rashly confront the source of your jealousy, or attempt to prove your worth without informing your allies (or, alternatively against their wishes)

A Sororitas Novitiate in white armor, burgundy-tinted leather, a purple wimple, and bright blue robes with dark burgundy inner lining. Ikuyo is depicted running, with a sword ready to swing and a duelist’s knife in a reverse grip. Blood coats both blades, drenches a heavy leather knee pad, and stains the foot of her boot as she dashes across bloodstained tiles
A white dachshund on a table looking past a wine glass with an expression of mild judgement
A frame from Revolutionary Girl Utena depicting a young girl absolutely pincushioned by countless needle-thin sword blades. The phrase "SCOPE CREEP" has been overlaid atop it in impact font.
an old photograph of Carrie Nation, an elderly woman in conservative garb, looking towards a camera and holding up a hatchet. A large book is open in another hand - I'm going to presume it is a copy of the bible.
