I made an Angel Generator last night! I'm currently working on a better one (and an eventual demon generator tbh) but I thought it'd be fun to share the old version! And also that I'd get a kick out of seeing peoples' interpretations of their angels.

It assigns a body type, size and what its skin is made out of, among other things. Also (somewhat) custom palettes! I picked every fucking shade myself and painstakingly pasted their hexcodes into this thang. Enjoy!

“If a society puts half its children into short skirts and warns them not to move in ways that reveal their panties, while putting the other half into jeans and overalls and encouraging them to climb trees, play ball, and participate in other vigorous outdoor games; if later, during adolescence, the children who have been wearing trousers are urged to “eat like growing boys,” while the children in skirts are warned to watch their weight and not get fat; if the half in jeans runs around in sneakers or boots, while the half in skirts totters about on spike heels, then these two groups of people will be biologically as well as socially different. Their muscles will be different, as will their reflexes, posture, arms, legs and feet, hand-eye coordination, and so on. Similarly, people who spend eight hours a day in an office working at a typewriter or a visual display terminal will be biologically different from those who work on construction jobs. There is no way to sort the biological and social components that produce these differences. We cannot sort nature from nurture when we confront group differences in societies in which people from different races, classes, and sexes do not have equal access to resources and power, and therefore live in different environments. Sex-typed generalizations, such as that men are heavier, taller, or stronger than women, obscure the diversity among women and among men and the extensive overlaps between them… Most women and men fall within the same range of heights, weights, and strengths, three variables that depend a great deal on how we have grown up and live. We all know that first-generation Americans, on average, are taller than their immigrant parents and that men who do physical labor, on average, are stronger than male college professors. But we forget to look for the obvious reasons for differences when confronted with assertions like ‘Men are stronger than women.’ We should be asking: ‘Which men?’ and ‘What do they do?’ There may be biologically based average differences between women and men, but these are interwoven with a host of social differences from which we cannot disentangle them.”

My hot take: this is a problem of nomenclature

I think adventure time as a D&D 5th edition supplement is fine. Maybe good even?? And its existence doesn't prevent a fully fleshed out rpg existing alongside it either

BUT it should bill itself as a 5e supplement, not as an RPG. I wouldn't have a problem with 'Adventure Time: The 5e Supplement'

'Adventure Time: The RPG' just sets itself up for disappointment or adds confusion around RPG and D&D as synonyms (they're not) (yes, we know this, and it's often in these businesses' interests to capitalise on such confusion, and 'the rpg' sounds sexier and more quickly grokable to people outside the hobby, but: I don't care, I don't think any of that is worth sacrificing clear and precise nomenclature)

We are complaining about 5e? Lemme get on track here.

Cryptozoic entertainment is releasing an adventure time ttrpg and when i heard about this i was ecstatic because i love both of those, up until i learned it was 5th edition, i dont hate 5e but the problem is that ive been playing it for years and adventure time just doesnt work in that kind of ttrpg, The truth of the matter is that Adventure Time would work WAY BETTER as its own ttrpg system! And it would make way more sense and most likely would be easier to do so in its own right.

5E has become this kind of universal concept of what a ttrpg should be, because of its cultural impact everybody is too comfortable in playing 5e and ive had so many people deny other ttrpgs because they just dont want to learn because its too much work.

I'm bored of 5e.

Yeah I agree. The Adventure Time RPG being another 5e hack is extremely disappointing. We need more, we need better.
