The Clone Wars zillobeast episodes are just How Not to Do Conservation 101

10/10 do NOT recommend keeping something in a tiny cage and experimenting on it. That's (unsurprisingly) very bad

Also, Mace, mate. I get you want to protect the thing but "we'll move it to another planet" is not the best option. YOU CAN'T JUST TAKE IT AND PUT IT ON A DIFFERENT PLANET WITHOUT EXTENSIVE RESEARCH INTO IT'S SURVIVAL REQUIREMENTS

If you want to protect an endangered species, don't take a single animal, put it where there are definitely 100% no other ones and just leave it there. Like congratulations, you've just totally prevented the chance of there ever being any more offspring from that individual (assuming it doesn't reproduce asexually) and are now driving it further to extinction 👏

Final Hours of the Kickstarter, and Two More Playable Options for 5e

There are only 14 hours left for the Rise of the Drow: After the Fall evil drider and drow campaign, and not only has every monetary goal been met, but now that it's hit $100k, a secret goal has been unlocked: a "SPIDERKSSED" soundtrack.

There's still nine base NPC STL print file minis yet to be unlocked (we need more backers), and the 2000 backer special edition STL file. It'd be nice if we could hit that in the final hours.

During the conversations we've been having in the comments section of the Kickstarter, the discussion of Lolth came up, and how some people aren't a fan of hers, and were hoping for something more original. For those who've been following me for a while, you know that this isn't my first rodeo when it comes to drow. I did a whole series of blog entries on the (sadly defunct) Throne of Night campaign for Pathfinder 1e. One of the entries I added was to make an homage to the 3.5 scorrow monster from Eberron, which used the Pathfinder girtablilu and Drowblood template, as well as ranger Simple Class template. Lolth is Forgotten Realms, but the "Spider Queen" moniker is available for anyone's world. However, if you'd like to make this take place in Eberron, or a homebrew world that Lolth doesn't exist, then Vulkoor might be right up your alley. Instead of female drider (spiders), you have male scorrow (aka scorpions).

Today, I'll be talking about additional playable options you could potentially use, with DM permission of course.

As always, if you like what I do, whether it’s monster conversions, adventure path add-ons, or race builds, I have a Ko-Fi page (linked) for those who would like to support me monetarily. There is no pressure or obligation to do so. A like and/or a share would also be appreciated just as much. It lets people know I exist out there.

I hope everyone is staying safe and healthy.

Now, let’s talk stats.

Since the module has you play as drider or drow, if you wanted to be a scorrow, this module wouldn't technically allow for it. However, it's actually pretty easy to make a drow into a drider with what's already available. Also, talking to my players, and other people online, there are a lot of people who prefer to play as tiefling. Unfortunately, there's no official playable tiefling option in this scenario, and no tiefling drow hybrid race or monster outside of the draegloth. I've seen argument that a cambion can be created by any humanoid, not just humans, so that could be argued, and there's also a hydrid drow/bugbear 3PP release that I found for one of my players who ran through the Way of the Wicked adventure path. There are quite a few drow hybrid races, but the majority of them are 3PP, so today I'll just be covering two official monsters from D&D, and who you how to convert them to 5e with a few simple additions to the base race.

To make a scorrow, take your standard drow and make the following changes:

Change the Darkvision to 60 feet from 120, and remove Sunlight Sensitivity.

Remove the drow's Weapon Training.

Rename Trance to Unihemispheric Sleep. You still don't need to sleep, and magic can't put you to sleep, but need more than 4 hours of rest.

Add the centaur's Equine Build and Hooves. Rename Hooves to Stinger and increase the damage to 1d6 piercing instead of 1d4 bludgeoning.

Add the grung's Standing Leap.

Add the 2024 dwarf's Stonecunning.

Change your Creature Type from Humanoid to Monstrosity. Add "You are also considered a drow for any prerequisite or effect that requires you to be one." allowing you to take drow feats.

Removed the drow's Drow Magic.

Add a new ability called Scorpion Empathy. You can cast animal friendship an unlimited number of times with this trait, but you can target only scorpions with it. You also have advantage on Wisdom (Animal Handling) checks you make to influence them.

You might be surprised at just how balanced this actually is. It's obviously more than your standard drow, but it has its own weaknesses by comparison, especially the inability to cheat resting hours and lack of magic. It's "point cost" is less than most of the newer playable races.

To make a draegloth, take your standard drow and make the following changes:

Remove the drow's Weapon Training.

Remove the drow's Trance.

Change your Creature Type from Humanoid to Monstrosity. Add "You are also considered a drow and a tiefling for any prerequisite or effect that requires you to be one." This allows you to take drow and tiefling feats.

Remove Sunlight Sensitivity.

Add a thri-kreen's Secondary Arms.

Admittedly, this is less balanced when compared to the scorrow, but Secondary Arms is considered fairly busted to just about any other ability in the game. Not having Trance is still a problem though, and unless the drow and scorrow, you still need to sleep and can be affected by the sleep spell.

These are pretty quick and dirty, and I hope you're allowed to play as one of these options, if you present them to your DM, especially for this campaign. I know I've presented them to my friend who's looking to run this campaign for us (he's also got a 3D printer so he'll be making use of those STL files). He hasn't said no yet, and I've showed him the article on the zekyl/zekylyn too, and I know that at least has peaked his interest.

when I finally finish all the artwork and play testing for my dragon slaying mini campaign just you wait ill have ART TO SHARE

[dont-lick-my-foot]

i actually cannot listen to classical music without being reminded of the time in the music appreciation college class i took in high school when the professor played beethoven’s 5th symphony and i said “yesss judge judy” when it started—louder than i meant to

the professor was a cool dude so thankfully he thought it was funny

Breaking Down the Mechanics of Pressurized Membrane Modules

Pressurized membrane modules serve as a fundamental technology for processing water and food products while supporting pharmaceutical development alongside various industrial production processes. Membrane modules represent one of several membrane system types that lead to current industrial adoption among multiple organizational applications. 

Hydraulic pressure functions in these systems to pull objects through semi-permeable barriers so that the modules can execute desired separations of essential materials from undesirable ingredients. A detailed study of pressurized membrane modules explores their operational mechanism and their benefits alongside their current and projected uses.

1. Working Principle of Pressurized Membrane Modules

Pressurized modules push liquid by using external pressure to pass fluids through permeable membranes featuring tiny pores that block the passage of particles microorganisms and other impurities. Membrane systems operate with pressurized units to carry out filtration techniques including RO (Reverse Osmosis) while also providing UF (Ultrafiltration) MF (Microfiltration) and NF (Nanofiltration). The basic operation involves the following steps:

Feed Water Input: Each module accepts a feed solution that can consist of either pure water or various liquid mixtures.

Pressure Application: An external pressure difference applies to the membrane. The system design determines which mechanism such as pumps will create this pressure.

Separation Process: Membrane pressure pushes liquids from one side while letting molecules with smaller dimensions pass forward while trapping other particles so they collect on the opposite side.

Permeate and Concentrate Streams: The membrane separates liquid into two components - permeate exists as the clear passing solution and the retained substances become concentrated or retentate.

Membrane module operation based on pressure reaches its performance through management of pre-applied pressures that differ according to filtration types. Port de pressure levels differ between membrane filtration techniques where reverse osmosis demands high pressure but ultrafiltration and microfiltration function with lower pressures.

2. Design and Structure

The design of the quality membranes modules is an integral part of their efficiency and performance. There are a number of structural features that make the filtration process optimal for several applications.

Membrane Configuration: Membranes are configured in various forms according to the type of filtration. Common configurations include spiral wounds, hollow fiber, flat sheets, and tubular membranes.

Spiral Wound Membranes: These are the most common form of membrane arrangement used in pressurized modules. They have membrane sheets wrapped around a central core. They provide a very high surface area in a very compact form and are, therefore, very efficient.

Hollow Fiber Membranes: The membranes are essentially tiny fibers through which the liquid flows. These are usually employed for applications where high flux rates are required, such as desalination of water.

Tubular Membranes. These are composed of rigid tubes and can accommodate highly viscous fluids; it is often more industrial and commercial in applications.

Pressure Vessel and Housing: The housing structure contains the membrane and maintains the structural integrity in addition to ensuring protection from damaging elements while under operation. In addition, such vessels can hold up to highly elevated operating pressures to maintain long-term service.

Flow Path Configuration: The flow path in these modules is designed so that the filtering efficiency is achieved at its optimum. The feed flow can either be cross-flow or dead-end flow, arranged according to what the system calls for.

3. Applications of Pressurized Membrane Modules

These quality membranes modules can be applied in a wide variety of industrial applications due to their versatility. Their main use is to separate or concentrate material, and thus they are very significant in applications where high purity and specific separations are concerned.

Water Treatment: Primemtec’s pressurized membrane modules are widely used in municipal and industrial water treatment systems. Reverse osmosis membranes, in particular, are critical for desalinating seawater, treating brackish water, and purifying drinking water.

Food and Beverages: Pressurized membranes in the food industry are used in juice concentration, processing of dairy like milk filtration, and production of beer. Ultra- and microfiltration membranes separate proteins and other dissolved constituents from liquids.

Pharmaceuticals and Biotech: These modules are essential for separating biological substances, sterilizing products, and concentrating active pharmaceutical ingredients (APIs). They ensure high product purity and consistency, which are critical in pharmaceutical production.

Chemical and Petrochemical Industries: Pressurized membranes module are used in chemical recovery, solvent recovery, and other processes where the separation of complex mixtures is required. They help in reducing energy consumption and enhancing operational efficiency.

Wastewater Treatment: The membrane modules in wastewater treatment plants are used at both the filtration and treatment stages to remove contaminants from effluent streams. It ensures that treated water meets specified quality standards for compliance with environmental regulations.

Summary

Primemtec’s pressurized membrane modules stand as fundamental components of modern filtration science which deliver flexible efficient scalable industrial solutions throughout multiple domains. Through pressure-driven system operations, these technologies enable both liquid separation and purification which drives advances across water treatment alongside food processing and pharmaceutical production and multiple other vital industrial sectors. The future of sustainable and efficient filtration technology will become possible thanks to new membrane materials and system design innovations that overcome operational costs and fouling challenges.
