The real reason your sapient dragon character needs a "rider":

Dragons on the wing are vulnerable to being mobbed by smaller, more agile flyers, particularly in your large rear blind spot, like a bird of prey being mobbed by crows. Having a human armed with a long spear perched on your back helps to dissuade anyone from getting any funny ideas.

Breath weapons are impressive enough on the ground, but in flight they're really only good for strafing stationary targets; trying to use your breath weapon in an aerial dogfight is a good way to get fire up your nose. A real fight calls for sterner measures – and, concomitantly, a crew to aim and reload the cannons.

In today's competitive world, it's not enough to devour a flock of sheep and call it a day if you want to keep your edge. You're accompanied at all times by a qualified personal alchemist tasked with carefully regulating your internal furnace to ensure peak performance, and sometimes you even listen to them.

No dragon of any quality would be caught dead without their valet. It's not as though you can announce your numerous long-winded titles yourself when introductions are called for, can you? You suppose next you'll be expected to pick up the spoils of your conquests yourself, like a common brigand. Perish the thought!

I'm curious. Reblog this if you know how to cook

I don’t even care if it’s macaroni, ramen or those little bowls you stick in the microwave. Please, I need reassurance that most of the population on tumblr WOULDN’T STARVE TO DEATH if their parents couldn’t fix them food or they couldn’t go out to eat.

ordered pizza from a small local place and they didnt actually cut it so i've chosen to revert to a wild animal and begin ripping it apart instead of just using a knife to portion slices

more info on them because I want to!

Gray, Seth and Remi are a trio, Gray is a son of Aeolus, Seth is a son of Themis (goddess of justice and prophecy), and Remi is a daughter of Urania (muse of astronomy and stars).

Élektra(child of Ichnaea, goddess of tracking) and Wren (child of Glaucus, old man of the sea) are a duo, Luell (son of Asclepius, god of medicine and healing) and Casimir (son of Dionysus) are also a duo

The whole idea was to make demigods who are children of obscure and less-mentioned Greek gods and to think about what kinds of powers they would have. I thought that people like Gray and Wren whose godly parents have a domain that is already ruled over partly by a mightier god like Zeus of Poseidon would not get powers over that specific domain, so that’s why Gray got wings and Wren also got prophecy powers. I also am still having fun thinking up all of their backstories and how they met, and doing research about the witch huntings for Élektra.

Eyes! Alternate seven eyes! In order: Gray, Seth, Remi, Wren, Élektra, Luell, Casimir.

This is a reminder for those who handmake Christmas presents that now is not too early to start. It may in fact be a good time to start if you have a lot to make/your craft takes a long time. You should maybe start it now, whether that's brainstorming or actually doing the crafts!

Edit: I am fully aware it is spelt “sewing” and that “sowing” is related to crops and the grim reaper. I’m bad at homophones and you can’t edit polls.

esoteric form of roleplay where instead of actually roleplaying you just make up characters together and discuss in abstract how they'd interact and how their story would go
