i know its cliche to say but lup adventurezone really is the character of all time like. she's an elf, she's a wizard, she's dead, she's a ghost, she's a bounty hunter for the raven queen. her spirit lived in a magic-eating umbrella for a nebulous number of years. she's an astrophysicist. carbo-loading breakfast then blowing up an abandoned dmv was her best day ever. she has a twin brother who's memory was wiped of her existence. she's in love with a white guy named barry bluejeans. she planned a heist on a casino to get back at someone who owed her fifteen dollars. after being released back into the world the first thing she did was dunk on her brother's love life. she speaks mongoose. and she's trans. do you get it.

Griffin: ah yes I will introduce a fbi agent who’s looking for bigfoot who will slowly over the course of the campaign grow to care for the people of amnesty lodge and I will also of course give him a gay little romantic subplot WITH mr bigfoot himself. So excited to sprinkle that in through the plot.

The PCs, a former weed-smoking-field-hockey-playing-in-abandoned-mall teen, a bi stage magician with little-to-no respect for authority, and a literal ex-con: it’s a fuckin COP stay FAR AWAY from this NARK he must not be TRUSTED

For people who live in the U.S., November can bring to mind a lot of things, and one of them is Thanksgiving. This can be a complicated holiday because while most people just see it as an excuse to get together with friends and family and pig out, we all know that the story of the "First Thanksgiving" is bullshit.

This November, and for as long as it takes, I'm asking you to keep Native American and Alaska Native rights in mind and to fight for them. ICWA, the Indian Child Welfare Act, is at risk.

This act was created to stop cultural genocide. Until the late 1900s, Native American and Alaska Native children were routinely kidnapped and placed in residential schools and white families, where they faced abuse, forced assimilation, and sometimes murder. ICWA was passed in 1978 to stop this by allowing tribes to control the foster and adoption placement of Native American and Alaska Native children.

However, today, the SCOTUS started hearing arguments in a case that could overturn ICWA. This would not only endanger children and allow cultural genocide, but it would endanger tribal sovereignty since it would deny sovereign tribes the rights over the placement of their own children.

This November, this Thanksgiving, and until ICWA has been upheld, I ask you to stand up for the rights of Native Americans and Alaska Natives.

Spread the word about what is happening. Don't let this get swept under the rug. Post about it. Tell your friends and family.

Sign petitions.

Write to representatives.

Reach out to local tribes to see what you can do to help.

Protest.

And if you can afford to do so, donate to Native American and Alaska Native organizations.

I’m at the best scene in the entire campaign: the deal in Fantasy Costco. You know, THE deal. If Arms Outstretched is the most defining scene story-wise, the Fantasy Costco bit in LIIV would the most memorable comedic bit.

Merle says he’s still saving up for the Flaming Raging Poisoning Sword of Doom, setting up the entire scene. There is a moment where Griffin off-handedly mentions the Slicer of T'pire Weir Isles (pronounced like tupperware), which can be exchanged for someone’s most valuable item with a high enough persuasion roll.

Magnus takes a while deciding what he wants, giving everyone enough time to forget about both the Sword and the Slicer. Griffin brings out Garfield to get some more of Magnus’s… bodily materials, quietly setting up for the end of The Suffering Game, where he’d presumably die. Meanwhile, Justin has been silent this whole time, buying his time.

Then it’s Taako Time.

He keeps his poker voice while buying both the Slicer and – and Griffin himself brings up, which adds to the comedy of the scene as he fails to notice the trap he’s about to waltz into – Rickle Axage’s Pocket Guide to Adventuring, Third Edition, which gives the whoever reads it a temporary advantage on rolls of a single skill.

I can hear Justin keeping his voice deliberately monotone as he says Taako reads the guide for persuasion.

And then.

Taako: “I have one more transaction I need to conduct.

Garfield: “Okay.”

Taako: “Garfield.”

Garfield: “Yes?”

Taako: “I have something that I think is really gonna interest you.”

*beat*

Griffin McElroy, his very soul trembling with realization: “OH MY GOD.”

This scene cemented Taako as my favourite character in the campaign and TAZ as one of my favourite pieces of fictional media of all time. Nothing tops it. Justin is a genius.
