2023.06.05 11:09 xClxudyStxrsx Random vampire lore story
So this dream was a transition from another dream, a stupid one at that, where my brother was pregnant and a charger gave birth for him. It starts in a train station during the Golden Age and a little girl with her father are walking towards a train, before a vampire comes up to them and attacks them, making his kind's first appearance in human history.
Time skip a bunch of decades later, there is a very edgy boy I'll name Ko that was recently assaulted by a very beautiful, tall appearance. He lives in a world similar to ours where secret societies of humans fight evil vampires and is shown writing very edgy messages on long bricks then dropping them on people passing by at night. Or maybe vampires. Ko is doing that from the 10th floor of a building belonging to this secret society, and there is an announcement from the HQ telling him to stop throwing fucking bricks out the window or they'll send backups. He then quickly runs in the hallway, where he meets a group of girls who debate on how to stop them vampires once and for all, and how there might be a traitor between them, in this building of anti-vampires. A new member walks up next to Ko and gives him a thick lock of her own precious long bright blue hair, which is said to repel vampires, saying he can find a way to stop this war. The group of girls turn their heads and beg Ko for at least one little strand of it. Again, Ko makes a run for it and finds his best friend. They brainstorm together ideas about how they could protect people from vampires using that fistful of hair, while remaining anonymous. Then they remember how grocery stores like Kaufland give kids small packages of collectable toys and pictures after every purchase of 50 dollars, so they decide to sneak that night in a factory that produces this stuff and cut up the strands of hair into pieces and put each of them in a bag, writing on the back of the packages that it's magical mermaid hair. The idea surprisingly works, and kids keep that stuff in their pockets.
Then there's a cut that shows us the royal family, where there is a quiet little prince who steals the hairs and uses them to fill up a ginormous fishbowl, knowing the true nature of the hair and also being terribly afraid of vampires, so he stocks up on that shit. Ko finds out and that kid is like "Oh, you got me. Take all these hairs except for like a dozen.".
In the last part of the dream there is a cut to a fight scene in a dark grocery store. A big middle-aged guy with a goatie is covered in blood and tries to talk sense into a tall, scarily beautiful vampire, saying that she can't go on like this forever and how she's been causing problems for centuries for fun. The woman smiles and hits him with the final blow. SHE TURNS OUT TO BE THE HQ OF THE ANTI-VAMPIRE GROUP!!

2023.06.05 11:08 PsychologicalCup6938 A little schadenfreude
For context, in the last year, I've helped get my girlfriend caught up on some Nerd Culture she has missed out on, because her Ex was... very star wars and DnD-centric. She was also born in '91 and grew up without cable, and missed a few important pieces... like... Babylon 5, the 13th Warrior, House of Leaves, John Wick, Space: Above and Beyond, Star Trek (so much Star Trek)... and some not-quite-so-uppers like Battlestar Galactica (RDM), Altered Carbon, and Les Miz. I suggested she listen to the Audible of Flowers for Algernon. The phrase "why do you do this to me!" Has been said with tears a few times.
Anyway, she got into my stash of Malazan in October, (after I warned her mind you,) and earlier today, I got Dust of Dreams thrown at me. "WHY!? WHY!? WHY DO YOU DO THIS TO ME!?" Followed by a long rant about Murillio, Harllo, Rake, and how it isn't fair she doesn't hate Kallor anymore, even after he "...murdered the fuck out of Orfantal, leaving his sister broken". This, of course, came after last month's: "Seriously, Charlie Gordon vibes, but somehow even worse! Like how the fuck does he do Beak that dirty. Beak was my favorite! Just a nice kid. But no. Fucking Candles!" God, help me, because Corabb, Mappo, Stormy, Gesler, and Cuttle are some of her favorites. At least I won't get a (t)earful about Hellian and Bottle, or the dogs.

2023.06.05 11:08 Vegetable_Method1746 Here’s Where To WATCH Spider-Man: Across the Spider-Verse Online Free ON Reddit
Marvel Comics! Here’s downloading or watching Spider-Man: Across the Spider-Verse streaming the full movie online for free on 123movies & Reddit, including where to watch the anticipated Pixar’s Movie at home. Is Lightyear 2023 available to stream? Is watching Spider-Man: Across the Spider-Verse 2023 on Disney Plus, HBO Max, Netflix, or Amazon Prime? Yes, we have found a faithful streaming option/service.
Over 25 years ago, a little boy named Andy received a Buzz Lightyear action figure in the 1995 Pixar film Toy Story. Now, all these years later, audiences will finally see the movie that inspired that action figure in the Toy Story spin-off movie, Lightyear, which is soaring into theatres this weekend.
This is not the Buzz Lightyear you know and love—the one who is best friends with Woody and voiced by Tim Allen. This is the original Buzz Lightyear, a bonafide space ranger voiced by Chris Evans, who is stranded on a hostile planet that is 4.2 million lightyears from Earth, alongside his commander and crew. The Lightyear cast also includes the voices of Keke Palmer, Peter Sohn, James Brolin, Taika Waititi, Dale Soules, Uzo Aduba, and Isiah Whitlock Jr.

With this new Toy Story adventure coming to theatres, you may feel the urge to revisit the classics. The decider is here to help with that. Read on to find out what Toy Story movies to watch before Lightyear and how to stream the Toy Story.
Can I Stream Spider-Man: Across the Spider-Verse?
You can’t stream Lightyear yet — but you’ll be able to soon. As a Disney movie, you can expect Lightyear to drop on their streaming service, Disney Plus, in the coming weeks, but the exact date of when that might happen hasn’t been announced yet.
Generally, with their cinematic releases, Disney and Pixar tend to follow either a 30-day release window or a 45-day release window. We don’t know which one they’re going with yet for Lightyear, but this means that given the movie’s global release date is June 17, we can expect Lightyear to be on Disney Plus sometime between July 21 and August 3, 2022.

Spider-Man: Across the Spider-Verse Coughing online free, which includes streaming options such as 123movies, Reddit, or TV shows from HBO Max or Netflix!

Tickets to see the film at your local movie theater are available online here. The film is being released in a wide release so you can watch it in person.

Is Spider-Man: Across the Spider-Verse on Disney Plus?
No sign of Lightyear on Disney+, which is proof that the House of Mouse doesn’t have its hands on every franchise! Home to the likes of ‘Star Wars, ‘Marvel’, ‘Pixar’, National Geographic’, ESPN, STAR, and so much more, Disney+ is available at the annual membership fee of $79.99 or the monthly cost of $7.99.

2023.06.05 11:01 yukino-fan Most Iconic SC2 Ability/Spell Day 2: Terran
Thanks for those who voted in the Protoss round. As we have a total of six poll options might as well advance the best TWO of each race instead of one.
The two most iconic Protoss ablities / spells as voted by you are
Psionic Storm with 592 votes and
Blink with 277 votes.
With Terran the best ones seem to be concentrated within a few units and some are very race-specific. I'm gonna HAVE to exclude a functional spell like MULES as although it's iconic and universally used, the level of excitement it provides is relatively low. Hope you agree with my picks.
Stimpack: Definitely a HOT favourite as bio is basically useless without it and it's effective against all races in any game situation.
EMP Round: Responsible for the Protoss tears throughout the years and remains very useful even after getting nerfed.
Steady Targeting: Whined about by salty Zerg players since the emergence of ghost-oriented lategame play. In reality only very few players can use the ghost-heavy style to its full effect.
Tactical Jump: Literally the Star Wars jump and makes for effective harassment and cinematic lategame fights. I feel like I'm reliving the moment where the Rebels jump from everywhere in the universe to participate in that final fight whenever I see a Terran jump under Skytoss.
Yamato Cannon: You're telling me that Battlecruisers, as OP as they are, get to take out high-value targets before the fight escalates?
Tactical Nuke Strike: This is a really tough decision to make. Ghost ablities are already over-represented and I'm also completely snubbing the Raven. In my defence, as useful as the interference matrix is, it's not gonna be the most iconic any time soon, and anti-armor missile will also lose out to EMP round due to the the latter's iconic status.
Despite the nuke's relatively rare competitive use you can't argue against the sheer fear and suspense it brings as casters and opponents alike scramble to look for the target of the strike once the harrowing warning is given. And of course the memes once one does land.

2023.06.05 11:00 RX-HER0 Spider-Man in DnD 5e!
Before we start, I'd like to give a great thanks to the "DM Mentor's Guild" discord, for without them I wouldn't have been able to make this build at all! Make sure to check them out! This server has experienced DMs with a knack for helping others tell an immersive fantasy, balance encounters, and fix game related issues. If your question requires a personal touch, there's no one I'd refer you to over the good guys at the "DM Mentor's Guild" server!
This is a guide for how to play Spider-Man in DnD 5e. Of course, it will be impossible for this to be all-encompassing, but I’ll do my best.
“With great power, comes great responsibility.”
Race.
Peter Parker isn't a mutant, but rather just a human. Due to the spiderbite, he’s far from your normal high schooler, however, so we’ll make him a Variant Human! Variant Humans get a feat at level 1, and we’ll be taking the Crusher feat to weave to yank enemies with our webs and launch them with our super strength! This feat gives us the ability to move a creature 5ft, once per turn, when you hit with an attack that deals bludgeoning damage. Additionally, when we crit on an attack, all attacks against our target have advantage until the start of our next turn. Finally, we may boost our Strength or Constitution by +1, and we’ll choose Constitution. As a Variant Human, we are also able to increase 2 of our stats by +1. Let’s boost Dexterity and Wisdom for better web-slinging and stronger Spidey-Senses! Finally, let’s grab Perception as a skill, to represent our peak ability and health!
Stat Array.
Peter’s got a wide array of abilities, so to cover this we’ll be using Point Buy, which gives us 27 points to put in our stats, which start at 8 as a default. Each increase above 13 will cost 2 points instead of 1.
9 points in Dexterity! Spider-Man is a slippery, nimble fellow with an agile fighting style! Our Dexterity will be 15 + 1 = 16, with a +3 modifier.
5 points in Wisdom! Peter’s always had a good heart and a just head on his shoulders. Additionally, Wisdom represents his senses, like Spider-Sense! Our Wisdom will be 13 + 1 = 14, with a +2 modifier.
5 points in Constitution! Spidey definitely can take a beating, but he’s more of the more frail characters of Marvel. Our Constitution will be a 13 + 1 = 14, with a +2 modifier.
5 points in Intelligence. On top of being nimble and perceptive, Peter’s smart beyond measure- to the point where he made his extremely strong, chemically binding web fluid by himself! Our Intelligence will be a 13, with a +1 modifier.
2 points in Strength. Spider-Man can lift metal fortresses, but we just can't have everything. Still, we can’t dump it. Our Strength will be a 10, with a +0 modifier.
0 points in Charisma. Peter’s a nerd who constantly gets picked on by Flash Thompson. Even as Spider-Man, he’s not exactly appreciated by the people of New York. Yeah, yeah, I know -he still had to have amazing Charisma to bag Gwen Stacy, Mary Jane, and Black Cat- but we can’t have everything. Our Charisma will be an 8, with a -1 modifier.
Background.
Peter Parker was a high schooler that, by circumstance, was bit by a radioactive spider, did a wrestling gig, saw his uncle die -you know the story already. Let’s grab Deception to lie to Aunt May, and Investigation, to devise tactics to defeat our enemies! Let’s call this the Web Head background.
Spider-Man is a fast, nimble hero who crawls walls and prefers to dodge attacks over tank through them, so we’ll kick them off as a Monk 1!
Let’s grab Athletics and Acrobatics as skills, to do whatever a spider can. We gain proficiency in Strength and Dexterity saving throws. We are also proficient in all simple weapons and short swords. For our artisan’s tool, let’s grab Tinker’s Tools.
Our favorite wall-crawler wears nothing but his costume in action, so it’s good that all Monks gain Unarmoured Defense! We gain a new way of calculating AC; 10 + Dexterity modifier + Wisdom Modifier! In other words, our AC does not come from armour, but from quickly evading blows and predicting attacks through Spider-Sense!
We also gain Martial Arts! We may use Dexterity instead of Strength for Unarmed Strikes or Monk weapons, which means that we can viably use all of our martial jabs and kicks. Furthermore, when rolling damage for a unarmed strike or monk weapon, we may role our martial art’s die + our Dexterity or Strength modifier in place of our usual damage. Our starting die is a d4. Finally, when we hit with an unarmed strike or Monk weapon on our turn, we may make an unarmed strike as a bonus action.
We’ll use Unarmed Strikes for our punches and kicks, and for our web shooters, we will actually use a sling! Why? It’s a 1-handed ranged weapon that does bludgeoning damage. With this, we can use our Crusher 5ft pull with our unarmed strike, which is our super-strength, or with our sling, which is yanking an enemy with our web shooters.
Monk 2.
At this level, our training allows us the ability to harness the mystic energy of Ki, which is a representation of our Spider Powers! We have Ki points equal to our Monk level, and regain all Ki on a short rest. Our Ki save DC is equal to 8 + proficiency bonus + Wisdom modifier. We may use Ki to fuel the following effects:
Flurry of Blows: Right after we take the attack action, we may spend 1 Ki point to make 2 Unarmed Strikes as a bonus action! This is a combo!
Patient Defense: We may spend 1 Ki point to take the dodge action as a bonus action. This is you focusing on dodging.
Step of the Wind: We may spend 1 Ki point to take the dash or disengage action as a bonus action! Be the spider JJJ just can’t squish!
Finally, we gain Unarmoured Movement at this level. While wearing no armor or a shield, we gain a bonus to our movement speed, which makes sense given how slippery Spider-Man is. Right now, it’s +10ft, and it’ll increase as we level up.
Monk 3.
At the 3rd level, All Monks get to choose a Monastic Tradition! For skirmishers like Spider-Man, Drunken Master is the best pick (you don’t actually have to drink for it to work).
As a Drunken Master, we gain proficiency in Performance, which we use to emulate our alter-ego ( also, use it for the dance ), and Brewer’s Supplies, to brew some New York joe.
All Drunken Masters also gain Drunken Technique, which gives us +10 movement speed and the benefit of the disengage action, when we use Flurry of Blows.
We also gain Deflect Missiles as a 3rd level Monk! As a reaction to being it with a ranged attack, we may deflect it, reducing the damage of the attack by 1d10 + Dexterity modifier + Monk Level. If we reduce the attack’s damage to zero, we may throw the projectile back as a monk weapon using the same reaction, at the cost of 1 Ki point! Catching a projectile and throwing it back is just the thing Spider-Man would do.
Monk 4.
At this level, we gain our First ASI! As a Monk, we desperately need them, so let’s not squander this bonus and boost our Dexterity by +2! Our Dexterity is now 16 + 2 = 18, with a +4 modifier!
We also gain Slow Fall at this level! As a reaction, we may reduce the damage from a fall that we take by 5 times our Monk level! It would be a shame if you took falling damage from your own jump, after all?
Monk 5.
At this level, we gain Extra Attack! When we take the attack action, we may make 2 attacks with that action! Spider-Man doesn’t take his rogue’s gallery down with one powerful strike, but with many rapid ones.
Additionally, we also gain Stunning Strike at this level! When we hit with a creature with an attack, we may expend 1 Ki point and force our opponent to make a Constitution saving throw. If they fail, they are stunned until the end of your next turn. This is you webbing up your opponent!
Alright, we’ve got a decent amount of martial ability and spider strength, let’s grab a few more specific abilities. To do that, let’s multiclass into . . .
Wizard 1!
All Wizards get Spellcasting, but we’ll reflavor yours as abilities you get courtesy of your radioactive blood, and/or your gadgets! After all, Spider-Men in general are at least a little bit mystic due to the Web of Life and Destiny. With how quick-witted you are, Intelligence will be your spellcasting modifier. As a Wizard, we get a spellbook for our spells, which for you is just your school notebook.
For Cantrips, we’ll pick . .
Mage Hand, to yank items towards you with a thwip.
Light, which is a light.
Mending, which is webbing something back together.
1st level Wizards also get to add 6 spells into their spellbook! Let’s grab . . .
Shield, which is a Web Barrier.
Longstrider, even more dexterous movement.
Catapult, which is using your webs to slingshot an object.
Gift of Alacrity, for even better reflexes.
Thunderwave, which is our impact webs.
Jump, which is how we’ll do web swinging. It isn’t climbing and isn’t flying, but I think this is a good compromise. With this and Step of the Wind, we have a 60ft long jump and a 18ft high jump.
As a 1st level Wizard, we also get Arcane Recovery, which allows us to, once per long rest, recover spell slots with a total level equal to or less then our Wizard level. The spell slots recovered cannot be above 6th level, to reload and gain more ammo!
Wizard 2.
2nd level Wizards get an Arcane Tradition, and the War Magic Tradition is the pick for superheroes that apply their intelligence in both rigorous study and brutal combat!
War Magic Wizards gain Arcane Deflection, which allows us to gain a +2 bonus to AC against the attack or a +4 bonus to that saving throw as a reaction. If we use this feature, the only spells we may cast next turn are cantrips. This is great for us, since we rely on weapon attacks anyway! This is our Spider-Sense.
We also gain Tactical Wit, which allows us to add our Intelligence modifier to our Initiative!
For our new spells, lets learn . . .
Silvery Barbs, which is distracting our enemy with a spurt of webs!
Identify, which is us using our Intelligence to figure out a mysterious magic item.
Wizard 3.
For our Wizard spells of this level, let’s learn . . .
Web, which is an AOE web (duh).
Earthbind, which is yanking Green Goblin down with webs.
Okay, we’ve got everything we need from Wizard, so let’s jump back to . . .
Monk 6.
At 6th level, we gain Ki Empowered Strikes! Our Unarmed Strikes now count as magical for the purpose of overcoming non-magical resistance.
As a Drunken Master Monk, we gain Tipsy Sway! This gives us two benefits:
Leap to Your Feet: When we’re prone, we can instantly flip off the floor, costing us only 5ft movement instead of half.
Redirect Attack: When we are missed with an attack role, we may spend one Ki point to cause that attack to hit one creature within 5ft of us, other than ourselves.
Both of these abilities are very fitting for Spidey!
Our unarmoured movement bonus increases to +15ft.
Monk 7.
At this level, We gain Evasion, which allows us to take half damage from a failed Dexterity save, and no damage from a successful Dexterity save! This is also a good ability for Spider-Man.
Additionally, we gain Stillness of Mind! As an action, we can end one effect on ourself that is causing us to be charmed or frightened. Spider-Man’s always had a good heart and a strong will, so it makes sense that it would be difficult to sway him with charms or frightens.
Monk 8.
At this level, we gain another ASI! Let’s boost Dexterity by +2 to cap it off at 18 + 2 = 20, with a +5 modifier! Now we’ve got the maximum amount of nimbleness that we can achieve.
Monk 9.
At this level, we gain an Unarmoured Movement Improvement, which allows us to run up walls and across water. Running up walls is our wallcrawling, and I guess across water is some shoe gadget you made?
Monk 10.
At this level, we gain Purity of Body, which makes us immune to poison and disease. Spider-Man’s got super-healing, after all.
Our unarmoured movement bonus increases to +20ft.
Monk 11.
At the 11th level of Monk as a Drunken Master, we gain Drunkard’s Luck! We always have a bout of luck when we need it most, as whenever we make an attack, save, or check and have disadvantage, we can spend 2 Ki to cancel out the disadvantage.
Monk 12.
Another ASI at this level. Let’s boost our Wisdom by +2 for higher AC and greater Spidey-Senses! Our Wisdom is now 14 + 2 = 16, with a +3 modifier!
Monk 13.
At the 13th level of Monk, we gain Tongue of the Sun and Moon! We are now able to understand all spoken languages, and all creatures that speak a language can understand what we can say! Spider-Man is beloved world-wide.
Monk 14.
At this level, we gain Diamond Soul! We’re now proficient in every single saving throw, including death saves, and if we fail a save, we may spend a Ki point to reroll!
Our unarmoured movement bonus increases to +25ft.
Monk 15.
All 15th level Monks gain Timeless Body! We no longer suffer the ill effects of aging and cannot be aged magically. I guess this explains why was perpetually in highschool (yeah I know the real reason is the comic line restarts).
Monk 16.
At this level, we gain another ASI! Wisdom is important for us, so let’s boost our Wisdom by +2! Our Wisdom is now 16 + 2 = 18, with a +4 modifier.
And finally, we’ll cap off our webbed wonder with . . .
Monk 17.
This is our final Drunken Monk Feature, Intoxicated Frenzy! When we use Flurry of blows, we can make up to 3 additional attacks with our bonus action, provided that each Flurry of blows attack targets a different target.
Pros
We are extremely mobile! 55ft movement base, 110ft movement on a dash, 220ft with two, 20ft horizontal jump and 18ft high jump with Step of the Wind and the Jump spell, and we can crawl on walls and run on water! We’re really hard to pin down, especially since we can disengage for free when using Flurry!
We’ve got great defenses! 19 AC, Proficiency in every save, we can remove disadvantage for 1 Ki, we can reroll for 1 Ki, +5 to AC through Shield, +2 for free through War Magic, and +4 to saves also through War Magic.
We’re great at handling crowds, as we can make 7 attacks with Flurry of blows as long as we hit a different creature each time, and can make a Stunning Strike attempt on each hit!
Cons
We dipped Wizard for Web, but we have a really low Spellcasting Modifier and as such a really easy save to beat.
We missed one of the best Monk features, Empty Body.
A sling is just worse than a shortbow (in DnD, slings are crazy IRL)
Black Suit Spider-Man Quickbuild
Miles: “Let’s go man, before he gets too far!”
Peter: “No . . . he’s mine . . .”
Miles: “You sure? He’s got big teeth.”
Peter: “So do I.”
This is still Peter, but now he’s making use of the dark powers of the Symbiote, so he’ll still be a Variant Human but instead of Crusher, we’ll grab Eldritch Adept and gain the Mask of Many Faces invocation, which gives us at-will castings if Disguise Self. This’ll be how we shift from
our classic and black suit.
Our main stat is Strength.
Take 1 in Monk for Martial Arts.
Put the following 6 levels in Barbarian, which fits the much more brutalistic nature of your newly adopted fighting style. Take the Beast subclass for large symbiote weapons! Your maw is conjoining your arms and spawning a giant toothy jaw, your claws are tendrils at the tip of your fingers, and your tail is a great black tentacle that leaps out of you. Not to mention, you can crawl and jump(webswing) long distances now too. We’ll be using the Barbarian’s unarmoured defense.
Put the next 2 levels in Monk and take the Astral Self subclass, which we’ll reflavor as our stretchy symbiote attacks. We’ve got 3 Ki, with 9 over the course of the day, assuming 2 short rests.
Put your remaining 11 levels in Barbarian. Infectious Fury is placing a mote of your symbiote within your target and making them attack your ally. Or, it’s just scaring the shit out of them if you choose the other option. Call of the Hunt is giving a bit of your symbiote to the entire party.
Venom Quickbuild
“We are Venom.”
While building Black Suit Spiderman I noticed that the build would also work perfectly for Venom, which makes sense.
This build would be the same as with Black Suit, but we’ll grab a 1 Rogue level at the beginning and grab Expertise in Strength and Intimidation.
Carnage Quickbuild
“I am the ultimate insanity! I am CARNAGE!”
This build is the exact same as Venom’s, except we grab Rogue 2 after level 6 of Barbarian for Cunning Action, and we’ll put Expertise in Acrobatics instead of Athletics.
Spider-Gwen Quickbuild
“All right, people, let's start at the beginning one last time. My name is Gwen Stacy. I was bitten by a radioactive spider, and for the last two years I've been the one and only Spider-Woman. You guys know the rest . . .”
This build is the same as the original, except instead of Crusher we’ll grab Mobile, and we’ll take a 1 level Rogue dip after our Wizard levels for Expertise, which we’ll put in Perception and Acrobatics.
Miles Morales Quickbuild
“Okay, let's do this one last time, yeah? For real this time. This is it. My name is Miles Morales. I was bitten by a radioactive spider. And for like two days, I've been the one and only Spider-Man. I think you know the rest . . .”
Miles is a high schooler who was bitten by a radioactive spider, just like Peter, so he’ll be a Variant Human too, although for him we’ll grab Mobile instead of Crusher for hit and run tactics. He’ll still use a sling for webs. Make sure to grab Sleight of Hand to swipe the USB from Peter.
Our main stat is Dexterity, but we also want decent Wisdom for AC and saves.
From there, put all 20 levels in Monk and take the Ascendant Dragon subclass. We can change our unarmed strikes to elemental damage, so this is how we get our lighting abilities (don’t use it for any other damage type because that’s out of character!). Same thing goes for Breath of the Dragon - it’s a blast of Lighting Wings unfurled is our web swinging, and Aspect of Wyrm and Ascendent Aspect are already built off of flavor we’ve already established. Empty Body is our invisibility, and Stunning Strike is a zapping stun.
Spider-Man 2099 Quickbuild
“What has yesterday done to tomorrow?”
Miguel O’hara is a human, but his DNA was overwritten with that of a spider, so we’ll choose Simic Hybrid, and our level 1 mutation will be Nimble Climber. ( Ask your DM if you can have the Sunlight Sensitivity trait )
Our main stat is Dexterity, but we also want decent Wisdom for AC and saves.
Put 5 levels in Monk and choose the Open Hand subclass. Our Open Hand Technique is our super strength and agility, and Stunning Strike is injecting someone with our venom. Choose Grappling Appendages, which are just your claws.
From there, put 2 levels in Rogue ( ask your DM if you can use Sneak Attack on Unarmed Strikes ) for Cunning Action and Expertise. Take Expertise in Athletics for grapples and Perception for your super hearing and supervision.
From there, put 2 levels in Artificer and grab the Repeating Shot infusion for your organic webbing, Sending Stones, which are tech communications, Goggles of Night for your darkvision, and the Wand of Detection, which is your AI Lyra doing a scan for you.
From there, put 3 levels in Wizard and take the Conjuration subclass, which gives you a 3d printer you can use to make small items with. Choose all the spells that we chose in the original build.
Then, dump the remaining 8 levels into Monk. Wholeness of the body is our healing factor, and Tranquility is simply us being hard to hit.
Spider-Noir Quickbuild
“Wherever I go, the wind follows. And the wind smells like rain."
This Peter was bitten just like our Peter was, so we’ll make him a Variant Human. Instead of Crusher we’ll grab Gunner for your revolver.
Our main stat is Dexterity, but we also want decent Wisdom for AC and saves.
Put 5 levels in Monk, choose Kensei, and grab a Revolver. Our Stunning Strikes are Knock-Out punches.
Put 3 levels in Fighter and take the Blight Fighting style to fight in pitch black darkness. Choose the Battlemaster subclass. Grab Trip Attack, Feinting Attack, and Ambush.
Take 2 levels in Rogue for Cunning Action and Expertise. Take Expertise in Athletics and Stealth.
Take 3 levels in Wizard and choose the Divination subclass, which is your Spider-Sense. Choose the same spells as the ones we chose for our initial build, except swap out Earthbind for Spider Climb.
Dump the remaining 7 levels in Monk.
Peni Parker Quickbuild
“私の名前はペニ・パーカーです。私は 3145 年のニューヨーク出身です。父のロボットの中に住んでいるクモと精神的なつながりがあります。そして私たちは永遠に親友であり続けます。”
Peni Parker wasn’t given power by a radioactive spider, but she bonded with it -oh, and that spider controls an anime mech that she pilots. Let’s make Peni a Variant Human and grab Telekinetic, which is you pulling or pushing something with webs.
Our main ability will be Intelligence.
Put all 20 levels in Artificer, and choose Armourer as your subclass to get your SP//dr mecha.
Choose the Guardian Model. We’ll be wearing Full Plate.
Choose Enhanced Defense, Goggles of the Night, Enhanced Arcane Focus, Armour of Magical Strength, Boots of Elvenkind, Slippers of Spider Climbing, Boots of Striding and Springing, Ring of Jumping, Belt of Hill Giant Strength, Ring of Protection, Spell-Refueling Ring, and Helm of Awareness as infusions.
Pick Booming Blade, Sword Burst, Guidance, and Thorn Whip as cantrips. Prepare Web, Spider Climb, Stoneskin, Haste, Absorb Elements, Detect Magic, Faerie Fire, Identify, Jump, Longstrider, Kinetic Jaunt, Dispel Magic, Glyph of Warding, Water Breathing, and Alarm. We also get Magic Missile, Thunderwave, Mirror Image, Shatter, Hypnotic Pattern, Lighting Bolt, Fire Shield, Greater Invisibility, Passwall, and Wall of Force.
Booming blade is a sonic strike, Sword Burst is a 360 swipe, Guidance is looking something up, and Thornwhip is a grappling hook. Web, Jump, Longstrider, Kinetic Jaunt, and Spider Climb are typical spider-person stuff. Stoneskin, Absorb Elements, Alarm, Fire Shield, and Dispel Magic are SP//dr’s defenses. Detect Magic and Identify are scanners, Faerie Fire is targeting systems, Glyph of Warding is a trap ( I guess you can do that now? ), and Water Breathing is just SP//dr being airtight. Magic Missile is web missiles ( yeah I know it’s a stretch ), Passwall is smashing through a wall, Wall of Force is a forcefield, Lighting Bolt and Shatter is techy stuff the mech probably can do (?), Haste is a battle focus, and Greater Invisibility is out of character so don’t use it.
Spider-Ham Quickbuild
"I was bitten by a radioactive pig."
Spider-Ham was a spider that was bitten by a radioactive pig. Instead of trying to comprehend the logic check that such an origin demands, let’s just make him a Gnome, which fits since he’s a tricky, short fella. Specifically, a Forest Gnome, and we’ll use Minor Illusion for our cartoon shenanigans. We’ll use a light hammer for our mallet.
Our main stat is Dexterity, but we also want decent Wisdom for AC and saves.
From there, the build follows our original Spider-Man build, except instead of taking 3 levels in Wizard, we’ll take 3 in Warlock. Choose the Hexblade subclass.
Take the Beast Speech and Improved Pact Weapon invocations.
Take the Pact of the Blade boon. This is your hammerspace.
For cantrips, grab Prestidigitation, True Strike, and Mage Hand. For spells, learn Shield, Hex, Expeditious Retreat, and Shadow Blade.
Expeditious Retreat is just running fast, Prestidigitation and Major image will be used for cartoon stuff like making a lightbulb appear over your head. True Strike is waiting for the right time to strike. Shield is dodging out of the way, Hex is a combat focus, and Shadowblade is a random weapon pulled out of hammer space ( it deals psychic damage because your opponent can’t comprehend that they’re being beaten by a pig ).

2023.06.05 10:39 OpossumTaxpayer (F4A) Fantasy Romance
Hello! I am a 27-year-old female. I work a lot but in my free time, I love to write thrilling stories! I am looking for a male partner over twenty years old. I prefer f/m character pairings. I am in EST time zone but don't have a requirement for my partner, I work third shift so I'm awake mostly from 5pm-6am est.
I am available most of the time on mobile, I try to reply at least once per day, however, life gets busy and I understand that as well from my partner. I want at least semi-literate, but I'm not a huge stickler as long as I can read it ok. I want 1+ paragraph per post. I'm more interested in detail than I am in the frequency of posts. I only roleplay in 3rd person and on discord.
Now to the fun part! I am into high fantasy and I need true love, romance, and sappy stuff! I also love action and drama too! I like very emotional roleplays. Some subjects I like: dungeons and dragons, vampires, apocalypse, cyberpunk, steampunk, star wars/space, Halo, resident evil and so so much more! I like using some fandoms as a base world to work off of.
What I've been craving recently: I just made a new character, she's a tall high elf that used to be a princess. She died and was brought back by the God of death, kelevmor. She now roams where her God tells her too, bringing comfort to the dying and walking them to kelevmor. Also providing financial support for the families. That and mostly d&d settings in general! And many other characters to look at.
Things I am NOT interested in: modern, slice of life, typical furries (I don't mind d&d races), anything that's not original characters (like Fandom rps with the actual characters, not our made-up ones)
I also like talking OOC and discussing future rp ideas or scenes! I'm a pretty easy person to get along with! I would also prefer that you have some type of character reference, any face claim works. And a decent amount of information on the character. I don't mind helping with character creation or making a new one to fit our story! There is no rush to any of this.
Send me a message and tell me what your favorite roleplay was! Hope to hear from you soon!

2023.06.05 10:33 mcm8279 [Discovery Interviews] StarTrek.com: There's a lot of TIG NOTARO in Jett Reno, so says the comedian: "I always tell everyone that I don't have a huge range as an actor, so there's always a lot of me in there, whatever I'm doing. ... it feels like there’s a little bit of HAN SOLO sprinkled in there."
Link:
https://intl.startrek.com/news/four-minutes-tig-notaro-interview Quotes:
"[...]
StarTrek.com: How familiar were you with Star Trek before becoming involved with Star Trek: Discovery? Tig Notaro: I had followed it as a child and not since, actually. So, it was a fun dream come true that I didn't know was a dream come true.
StarTrek.com: Because you didn’t even know it was a dream… Tig Notaro: Exactly. I didn't know it was a dream — and it's the best.
StarTrek.com: How did the opportunity come about for you to play this role on Discovery? Tig Notaro: Well, I've known (
Discovery executive producer and co-creator) Alex Kurtzman for over 20 years. And he just offered me the role.
StarTrek.com: Give us your sense of Reno. What makes her tick? Tig Notaro: Reno. I always tell everyone that I don't have a huge range as an actor, so there's always a lot of me in there, whatever I'm doing. Also, I can’t claim to be as smart as Reno. There's a lot of... I know this might be taboo to mention
Star Wars with
Star Trek, but it feels like there’s a little bit of Han Solo sprinkled in there. But gosh, I think your question was “What makes Reno tick?”
StarTrek.com: Or, coming at it another way, what's interesting to you about her as a character? Tig Notaro: I just love the confidence and the strength and the anything is possible attitude that she’s got.
StarTrek.com: What was it like that first time you put on the uniform and arrived on the set? And you had your friend Alex directing you. Tig Notaro: I have to say, I had a private moment of, “Wow, I think I might look cool in this.” It felt great. And Alex directing, it was so phenomenal. There’s just a comfort and ease there.
[...]
StarTrek.com: Last question, which line made you laugh more — “Evolution’s a fickle bitch, am I right?” or “An armistice? With the guys who drink blood wine?” Tig Notaro: I think, “Fickle bitch.” That made me laugh.

2023.06.05 10:33 admiralkew Chemical Warfare
Another boarding pod slammed into Medlet Station and the backwater outpost bucked like a wild horse.
Systems Integration Specialist Lynn Alcala cringed as another chorus of screams was added to the butchery unfolding outside the station’s control center. Her hand drifted towards her thigh for a service pistol that wasn’t there.
It had been a tiring month ensuring that human systems worked with, if not alongside, their alien counterparts in preparation for the tides of human trade and habitation once the treaties were signed and ratified. She’d hated the sleepless nights of hunting down the inexplicable and esoteric bugs that arose when converting input from one logic base to another. But she preferred that to
this. “Can’t we do anything?” She asked the station’s security officer.
Gt-tek shook his head, an oddly human expression that seemed at odds with the wet-skinned, bulbous appearance of the Tk-tyut species. His scent pores were wide open, emitting a fragrant distress signal as nictating membranes swiped over his forward four eyes once every two seconds.
“The X!K%# will slaughter us.” He said, Lynn’s cochlear bud supplying the translation. “The [Administration] never expected them to be able to range this far, so we were never supplied with the appropriate counterboarding equipment. Even their claws will rend the sturdiest hard suits we have [on hand.]”
He returned to the communications unit, directing the dwindling security teams as best as he could. But judging by the flow of hostile contacts on the station’s map, it was like trying to reinforce a sandcastle against the tide. The X!K%#’s natural carapace was armor and spacesuit in one. Their segmented bodies and multiple-redundant organs meant that one had to destroy a large fraction of the body, or employ chemical weaponry to even kill a single specimen.
Everyone was wearing their decompression suits in preparation for the eventual stationwide decompression that would ensue once the X!K%# had full control over the computer banks, though they hadn’t sealed their helmets just yet.
It didn’t matter anyway. A decompression suit was a lifesaving garment, not heavy infantry armor. Death in vacuum was no alternative to death by a X!K%#’s serrated vibrating claws. At the very least, they would be unconscious once the raiders began their feast.
“So, we are just going to die here?” Science Officer TelLuah hissed.
Her denticles were on end, pupils narrowed into angry glowing slits as her poisonous claws poked out of the special slits in her gloves.
“Yes.” Gt-tek said, emitting a croaking sound that was his species’ equivalent of a sigh. “Let our last stand be brave at least.”
Everyone’s eyes wandered over to the stationmaster, who was curled up on the command chair, silent and unmoving save for the near ultrasonic whimper emanating from his vocal humps.
“I’ll prepare the self-destruct sequence then. We might burn them from the stars at the cost of our lives.” TelLuah bowed her head. “Specialist Lynn, may you help?”
Lynn joined TelLuah at the consoles that governed the station’s power flow. Engineering was similarly locked down, but they could override the reactor controls from here… as long as the security cordon held.
“I am sorry you would not be able to return home to your pack.” TelLuah said sadly. “Give me a moment, I need to bypass the stationmaster’s authority. Then I will need your help with timing the overload process.”
“It’s fine.” Lynn replied. “I’ve… made my peace with it once upon a time. I just didn’t expect it to come calling so suddenly.”
She propped up her toolbag on one of the chairs lining the console. She didn’t need her tools for this. She was familiar enough with the stationbulders’ interfaces and language to navigate. Instead, she removed a package from the bottom of the bag.
Artisanal dark chocolate bon bons from Hinirang. She’d been saving it for when the integration project was done, but… she might as well have one while she waited.
She tore off the plastic packaging and cracked open the plastic box, revealing the dark treats underneath.
“Hey, do you guys want—” The chemical hazard alarm drowned out her voice.
The mad scramble for their helmets only ensured that the chocolate was scattered all over the floor. At the very least, it drowned out the stationmaster’s ultrasonic screech.
“They’ve never used chemical weapons before…” Gt-tek said over the suit comms once he’d calmed down.
“That is because it is not a X!K%# chemical weapon.” TelLuah speared one of the bon bons on her claw. “Computer, please run an analysis.”
Lynn saw the sensory fibers on TelLuah’s ear snouts come unfurled in fright. She dropped the bon-bon on one of the consoles and wiped down her claws with a cleaning agent as Gt-tek marched over and slammed the stationmaster’s helmet onto its seal.
“Specialist Lynn, what is this?”
“It’s… uh, chocolate?” Lynn said. “It’s a treat… candy.”
“Lethal concentrations of the chemical weapons theobromine, caffeine, ethanol…” TelLuah replied. “Not lethal, but unhealthy doses of various sugars… non-lethal—but…uncomfortable—dosage of lactates. That is a recreational consumable for humans?”
“Yes?”
TelLuah and Gt-tek shared a glance. Lynn realized something, and when the two looked at her, she knew they’d realized it too.
“We can rule out an atmospheric delivery method, but…” TelLuah said.
“If it gets into the hemolymphic system…” Gt-tek was already smearing one of the bon-bons onto his boarding sword.
“Maybe we’ve got a chance against those bugs.”
Cranked this out in about an hour in response to a writing prompt on humansarespaceorcs. Sorry if it's not so good.

2023.06.05 10:29 Traditional-Bunch413 Writing droids and AI in my sci fi…
I’m looking for ways to make Droids and AI an important part of my world and I am wondering what approach I should take and why? I’m leaning towards making them similar to their role as servants like in Star Wars. I’d like to know your thoughts with some questions to consider in your response.
- Are the Droids and AI capable of more more advanced thinking than that of the humanoids.
- Are they capable of feeling emotion? Have they attempted rebellion? How can Rebellion be avoided?
- How much autonomy are they given are they servant droids and A.I. equivalent of Siri? Or are they free thinking?
- Are some more intelligent and versatile than others that serve only a certain function?
