What's the other fear - The Vast?

Would the mariner from Mariner’s Revenge be an avatar of The Spiral? Propaganda: he almost certainly has the wrong guy, and probably hallucinated the original tip that sent him to sea anyway, he just is under the impression that he’s a hunter

The United States government is no longer able to protect us from real hazards because it’s shifting funds to fake hazards. This is a policy choice — and it doesn't have to be this way.

idk i think what is interesting about astarion to me is the fact that you have a guy who started out an asshole (normal type) and then spent two hundred years in a very carefully and specifically crafted (by the writers of the game) Become A Terrible Person Or Die nexus. like it wasn’t just a Torment Nexus, he wasn’t just in hell, i feel like this is very important not to forget, he was in hell but it was specifically a hell designed to, over time, kill the empathy of anyone trapped in it, kill their brain’s ability to prioritize other peoples’ survival, to numb one’s conscience.

and then he gets yanked directly out of that nexus and despite that the fact that he spent, again, two hundred years in a situation that was sort of a rock tumbler for the human soul, there’s still a pebble left in there. and it’s a pebble that can be grown if placed in the right environment and provided with a support network.

so i think it becomes interesting because it really does i think force you to start thinking about the limits of free will even on as basic a level as the human personality. i think the fact that he becomes such a different character based on player choice, that his end morality is so hugely dependent on player choice, is uhhh. a big part of what the devs were going for probably.

it makes a lot of people really uncomfortable to acknowledge some bad people would be good people if literally nothing changed except they had a good support network and different circumstances. especially because it means the opposite is also true. which is even more uncomfortable.

you know that part in the beginning of fellowship of the ring where gandalf is talking about how gollum is ultimately only like that because of the ring and gandalf thinks his story is sad? astarion is kinda like if they sexualized gollum.

who knows what sins he will commit

Someone get that out of here IMMEDIATELY!

There are some cursed items that are simply too unpredictable and dangerous to contain.

idk if this is a weird ask to receive but i have a set of foster kittens named after magnus archives characters and one of them was named Elias because I thought he looked like your Elias cosplay but like. as a kitten.

So you've inspired a kitten name! Good for you! :D

This is one of the greatest things that has ever happened to me. Thank you.

I hope that kitten is a nightmare 👁️🫶🫶

Martin: This statement is important!

Jon: Did you look into the statement giver's fate?

Martin: I did look into the statement giver's fate

Jon: Only stupid people look into statement givers' fates. You are stupid.

Tim: I looked into the statement giver's fate

Jon: You are a whore

Tim: This vexes me

Carlos Vittery: I am being haunted by a spider

Martin: That's bad

Carlos Vittery: Also I have arachnophobia

Sasha: You need to be researched. Also, I have not spoken in a while

Jon: No, research will lie to us. He needs to be disbelieved.

Martin: I forbid this!

Jon: Don't care. More disbelief.

Carlos Vittery: I died

Jon: This is unrelated to the spider

Elias: I too am in this episode

Not exactly an AU.

Instead of being a horror podcast focusing on the archival team, it's a sitcom about all the fears living together in a metaphysical flat.

no that's an au
