How to Collect all the Framer Kits

There are a LOT of framer kits out there now for our adventure plates and dungeon portraits. But where to find them all?

You don't need to go hunting it up on websites; the game will tell you!

Open up your Portrait menu. I'll use a currently unused plate of Aeryn's.

Select "Edit" above the center portrait. On that page, where it lets you select the Presets, Background, Frame, and Accent, there are the usual arrows, but also a page icon, the Background paper button boxed in yellow below to contrast with my dark mode UI.

At the top of that submenu are options to show obtained or unobtained, and also how/where you get the various backgrounds.

Filtering out the ones I own, I see I can get A "Heaven's Orthodoxy" (among others) and at the bottom of the list, it tells me where I can get it (from Khloe Aliapoh in Idyllshire; never free of that kitten...)

There are plenty out there! Every Allied Society has a framer kit now, talking to old Jonathas in Gridania about your achievements will nab a few, turning in bicolor gems to various vendors will add a few more, PvP for Job frames...the list goes on! The second dropdown in the submenu will give you ideas of all the ways to find kits.

And yes, it works exactly the same way for previewing Adventure Plate options!

Go forth, and make your WoL's ID cards pretty!

"There was also a strange Elf clad in green and brown, Legolas, a messenger from his father, Thranduil, the King of the Elves of Northern Mirkwood." - J.R.R. Tolkien, The Fellowship of the Ring, "The Council of Elrond"

↳ thank you to beloved mutual @kookyburrowing for the prompt!

[ID: an edit comprised of four posters in shades of green with brown accents. All the posters have green backgrounds.

1: Two circular images positioned at the top and bottom of the poster, which is framed by a light green border. The first image shows Kita Updike, a chippewa/african-american model with brown skin and straight dark hair. Her head is turned to the side so we see her in profile. The bottom images shows traditional ojibwe (chippewa) beadwork and embroidery. Both circular images have green frames, and a divider meant to resemble leaves separating them / 2: The bottom part of the poster is taken up by an image of sunlight coming down through trees and hanging vines. Above the picture, hollow green text reads "legolas" in all caps, and below that in smaller text in two shades of green, “He was tall as a young tree, lithe, immensely strong, able swiftly to draw a great war-bow and shoot down a Nazgûl, endowed with the tremendous vitality of Elvish bodies, so hard and resistant to hurt that he went only in light shoes over rock or through snow, the most tireless of all the Fellowship.” / 3: The left side of the poster shows a quiver of arrows lying on green shrubbery. Hollow text in the upper left corner reads "prince of" in all caps, while bicolored vertical text on the left side reads "eryn galen" in all caps / 4: Same format as Image 1, but the top image shows hide boots decorated with ojibwe beadwork depicting flowering plants, and the bottom image shows Kita Updike, this time facing slightly to the left with a neutral, serious expression //End ID]

Tatters #111

Audrey woke up on her back.

“Evan?” she said in a small voice. She remembered being with him, his hand on her cheek. Then things got confused.

The air was cold and clammy.

She opened her eyes.

She was in a cell of dark blue stone, only a few paces wide and long. She lay on a tall slab in the middle. There were metal rings set into the stone there, suitable for anchoring…something, or someone. One entire wall was a series of black metal bars in a sliding track. One corner of the cell slanted down into silent water, a stream no wider than her own head, muttering at the edge of hearing.

She sat up. She was not restrained in any way. Her clothes were rumpled and dirty but intact. Her head felt clear, though she also felt lost.

“Hello?” she called. “Hello? Someone? Fortune’s going to find me, you know. I suggest you get fucked before he does it for you.”

No reply. The wall of black metal bars looked out into a dark blue hallway, low-ceilinged and lit anemically by a hanging electric bulb.

“Hello?” she called, but dropped her voice halfway through.

She tested the bars. Thumb-thick and firmly set deep into their frames. She pulled at a panel that should have slid and it didn’t. The critical point was a massive black lock binding slider to fixed array. She tested, she shook.

She went to the far corner of the cell and put her hand in the water. It was shallow and bitterly cold, and it was in fact running. An inch’s reduction and it would be nothing. An inch’s rise in flow would cover half the floor. Audrey shivered. Then she started working at the edge of her skirt near a seam, hoping to tear off a piece to send into the current.

Something banged down the corridor.

Audrey shot to her feet and gripped the door’s bars. “Let me out!” she yelled. “Hello? Let me out! Fortune’s going to kick your ass!”

Three people shambled into view. There were two people in dark brown robes with deep hoods, and one man, tall, emaciated, with an uneven beard and clothes that were eight years out of date but expensively made.

She would never have realized it if he hadn’t twitched his head to one side, staring blankly at nothing significant on the wall. She saw his profile. Everyone knew his profile. It was on all the money.

She would not kneel until she got out of here. “Is it you?” she spat. “Let me out.”

“Kneel before His Majesty,” said one of the robes. Audrey spat at it, too.

The tall man’s bicolored eyebrows spiked and he looked at her as though shocked she existed. “You,” he rasped in a sepulchral voice. “You!”

“Let me out,” she said, leaning toward him and a rank incense-edged breath.

He reached in to grip her shoulders. He shook her weakly but wildly.

And he creaked, “Help me.”

Titmouse in the Trees

One of the problems that I have photographing small birds in the morning is that I sit too far away from where they will likely be, even with my big Canon. This photo of a tufted titmouse (Baeolophus bicolor) I think is passable but if I were closer, it would be better. But, you see, I like to sit on my patio under my pergola and drink coffee while I wait for the birds.

Wave of my hand (Jedi powers): 🫱 You want to my photo gallery at:

[joesalw]

I’ll admit, I don’t know time frames/who did what first but a lot of the eras costumes remind me of other celeb’s looks. They’re being hyped up but I’ve seen them all before, and done better. Florence Welch had the flowy gowns, Hayley Williams did the big t shirt, Beyoncé has her bicolored body suits, Madonna has done everything, and seeing Taylor do it, and getting upstaged by those outfits, I’m just underwhelmed. She needs that fancy armor to keep attention. Tbh it feels like she’s mirroring famous women, like she mirrors her boyfriends. Idk I feel like the only thing about her personality I’m sure of, and what she’s probably sure of, is that she’s a greedy little snake.

(Sidenote: not a costume but relevant, when she did the whole Olivia rodrigo inspired getup at the Grammys)

I have an emergency req because my little brother is in the ER and I need some fluff with any kny character please . If not that's okay.

Of course Anon, I hope your brother feels better very soon and heals well <3

I did Kyojuro X Reader because we need a little sunshine man

The yard was covered in every single flower you could think of off the top of your head along with some you wouldn’t even dream of. There were petals in the koi pond and even the trees had garlands of different colors strung from the branches. “What is all of this? How much did you spend on this?” You turned towards the man who led you here. His grin was bright as he noted your surprise, already turned back to admire the display. It was beautiful, made your nose itch a bit but it was a feeling you would withstand forever if you got to sit amongst the beauty of flowers. “It’s a gift, for you.” He was nervous, carefully plucking a red tulip and turning back to you. “I was told to buy you flowers as a show of affection but I couldn’t decide so I got all of them. I hope you enjoy them.” You looked into the bicolored eyes that refused to leave your face, crinkled at the end as he smiled down at you. “Kyojuro…” you sighed, unsure how to even respond to such a grand gesture. He even wore something besides his uniform, something you’ve only seen less than a handful of times. He tied most of his hair out of his face, leaving only his bangs to frame his head. He had recently shaved, the glow of his skin vibrant and he had that delicious pine smell that you had come to adore. “It’s a lot. I know and I’m sorry but I want you to know how much I care for you, how much I love you. I know I’m not here a lot, I asked you to move in before our wedding because I couldn’t wait until February to see you every day and I’m not home a lot but I cherish you. I fight every night to come home and see your smile, to hear you mumble to yourself about what you have to do still. I even enjoy it when you burp and then your eyes get all wide when you remember that we live together, it’s cute.” You turned away, embarrassed at being called out on your habits. “I know that slaying is dangerous and there is a high chance I may not come home one day, but even in the next life and the lives after that, I will continue to love you, to worship you. I yearn to have you with me until the end of time, as selfish and childish as it is. My love, My sunflower, my flame. I love you” He leaned down as he whispered the last words, breathing them into you so that maybe they could be part of you and solidify how real his feelings were and how much he truly felt them. “Kyojuro” you whispered against his lips, pressing forward into a kiss that devolved into multiple little kisses. You giggled each time he leaned back in, unable to keep his lips off of you as he trailed kisses along your cheeks and jaw. “Kyojuro, I love you too. I will wait every day for you no matter what, I can’t wait to get to meet you and fall in love with you all over again in our next lives. But for now my love.” You pulled back, the arms that were wrapped around his neck moving to hold his face, thumbs rubbing your affection into his skin. “Let’s cherish what we have now, yeah? Will you watch the clouds with me?” Kyojuro nodded because he knew he would follow you anywhere, even to the end of the earth.

Most of the commercially available bulbs come from Divisions 1, 2, and 8, the Trumpets, Large Cupped, and Tazetta varieties. But cultivars from Divisions 4, 5, and 7, the Double, Triandrus, and Jonquilla types, have also become popular for growing in the home garden. Let’s have a look at each Division along with some popular daffodil cultivars from each one. Division 1 – Trumpets  Flowers in Division 1 are the familiar, large-flowered Trumpets, featuring long, prominent corona, the trumpet, that’s at least as long as the perianth segments, the petals. Producing one big, bold flower per stem, these daffodils bloom in the early and mid-season garden and generally have a light, sweet fragrance with floral or fruity notes. Trumpets grow from 12 to 24 inches tall and naturalize well. They add alluring drama when planted in drifts and can be used in cutting gardens, as well as in beds, borders, containers, natural settings, and underplanting deciduous trees. Well known Trumpet cultivars include ‘Angel’s Flute,’ ‘Beersheba,’ ‘Dutch Master,’ ‘Early Sensation,’ and ‘Goblet.’ ‘King Alfred’ is the regal head of state, producing a blaze of large, sunshine yellow flowers in early to mid-spring. ‘King Alfred’ Growing 16 to 24 inches, the blooms have a light fruity scent.

The cup segments connect in two whorls of three pieces each. 11b Split-Cupped Papillon Varieties Split-Cupped Papillon types feature corona segments alternate to the petals.

Division 12 – Other  Division 12 varieties are flowers that don’t fit the descriptions of any other divisions, with many being inter-divisional hybrids. Flowering time can be early, mid, or late season and traits like fragrance and hardiness depend on the cultivar. Some well-known Division 12 hybrids include ‘Bittern,’ ‘Daffy Duck,’ ‘Jumblie,’ ‘Toto,’ and ‘Twinkle Boy.’ Perhaps the most well-known Division 12 variety, ‘Tete a Tete’ is delightful in the early-season garden and features one to three golden yellow flowers per stem. ‘Tete a Tete’ Strongly scented and a top choice for forcing, the miniature plants grow up to eight inches in height.

Open Says Me

Here is an image for the tufted titmouse (Baeolophus bicolor) fan base. This tufty is working on something, probably opening a sunflower seed.

"Unlike many chickadees, Tufted Titmouse pairs do not gather into larger flocks outside the breeding season. Instead, most remain on the territory as a pair. Frequently one of their young from that year remains with them, and occasionally other juveniles from other places will join them. Rarely a young titmouse remains with its parents into the breeding season and will help them raise the next year's brood." - allaboutbirds.org

Most of the commercially available bulbs come from Divisions 1, 2, and 8, the Trumpets, Large Cupped, and Tazetta varieties. But cultivars from Divisions 4, 5, and 7, the Double, Triandrus, and Jonquilla types, have also become popular for growing in the home garden. Let’s have a look at each Division along with some popular daffodil cultivars from each one. Division 1 – Trumpets  Flowers in Division 1 are the familiar, large-flowered Trumpets, featuring long, prominent corona, the trumpet, that’s at least as long as the perianth segments, the petals. Producing one big, bold flower per stem, these daffodils bloom in the early and mid-season garden and generally have a light, sweet fragrance with floral or fruity notes. Trumpets grow from 12 to 24 inches tall and naturalize well. They add alluring drama when planted in drifts and can be used in cutting gardens, as well as in beds, borders, containers, natural settings, and underplanting deciduous trees. Well known Trumpet cultivars include ‘Angel’s Flute,’ ‘Beersheba,’ ‘Dutch Master,’ ‘Early Sensation,’ and ‘Goblet.’ ‘King Alfred’ is the regal head of state, producing a blaze of large, sunshine yellow flowers in early to mid-spring. ‘King Alfred’ Growing 16 to 24 inches, the blooms have a light fruity scent.

Pick up bulbs in a variety of package sizes from Eden Brothers. Division 2 – Large Cupped Large Cupped daffodil varieties feature a corona that may be cupped or trumpet-shaped with a length that’s greater than one-third, but no more than equal to the length of the petals. Producing one flower per stem, most cultivars are sweetly scented and flower in early to mid-spring, but there are some that flower later in the season. Large Cupped daffodils grow 16 to 18 inches tall and are well suited for mass planting and naturalizing, or planted in groups in beds, containers, foundations, and islands.  Recognizable Large Cupped hybrids include ‘Dinnerplate,’ ‘Fortissimo,’ ‘Fortune,’ ‘Gigantic Star,’ and ‘Pyjama Party.’ ‘Glen Clova’ has a striking presence with a deep orange trumpet set against pale, lemon yellow petals. ‘Glen Clova’ The blooms have a sweet floral fragrance and grow up to 18 inches tall. ‘Glen Clova’ bulbs are available at Burpee.

Division 3 – Small Cupped The Small Cupped varieties in Division 3 have their own unique charm, with small button-like coronas no more than one-third the length of the petals. Producing one flower per stem in mid-spring, the short trumpets are often strongly colored, providing a handsome focal point to the many attractive, bicolored hybrids, often sweetly scented. They make excellent cut flowers and feature beautifully in borders, edging, and planters and also naturalize readily in meadows and woodland fringes. Division 3 plants grow 16 to 20 inches tall.

But cultivars from Divisions 4, 5, and 7, the Double, Triandrus, and Jonquilla types, have also become popular for growing in the home garden. Let’s have a look at each Division along with some popular daffodil cultivars from each one. Division 1 – Trumpets  Flowers in Division 1 are the familiar, large-flowered Trumpets, featuring long, prominent corona, the trumpet, that’s at least as long as the perianth segments, the petals. Producing one big, bold flower per stem, these daffodils bloom in the early and mid-season garden and generally have a light, sweet fragrance with floral or fruity notes. Trumpets grow from 12 to 24 inches tall and naturalize well. They add alluring drama when planted in drifts and can be used in cutting gardens, as well as in beds, borders, containers, natural settings, and underplanting deciduous trees. Well known Trumpet cultivars include ‘Angel’s Flute,’ ‘Beersheba,’ ‘Dutch Master,’ ‘Early Sensation,’ and ‘Goblet.’ ‘King Alfred’ is the regal head of state, producing a blaze of large, sunshine yellow flowers in early to mid-spring. ‘King Alfred’ Growing 16 to 24 inches, the blooms have a light fruity scent.
