Ryu Number: Robert Catesby

Everyone remembers Guy Fawkes and the Gunpowder Plot of 1605—the plan to blow up the Protestant King James I and Catholicize his daughter—but the leader of the group was actually a guy (geddit?) named Robert Catesby. Unfortunately for Catesby, an anonymous letter revealed the whole deal early, and Guy Fawkes was discovered under the House of Lords with 36 barrels of gunpowder, which is an amount of explosives government employees generally prefer not to have beneath their feet (opinions may vary). Catesby ended up shot by the fuzz, and they put his head on a stick. He has a Ryu number of 3.

McPixel has a very clear policy when it comes to copyright infringement.

That policy is "enh don't worry about it."

One of the booms you have to cancel in the game is the one Guy Fawkes is putting together. There's even the location shown to make it absolutely clear:

As for the alternate route, you might already know that Lego Dimension lets you play as an absolute crazy range of characters including Sonic the Hedgehog and the Doctor (One to Twelve, plus a bonus War Doctor)...

... but have you ever played Doctor Who: The Adventure Games?

If not... well, tough luck. It was yanked from Steam after the license ran out. Suffice to say (and it'll have to suffice to say, unless you're up for Alternate Methods Of Procurement), you play as the Eleventh Doctor and Co., getting into a short number of Doctor-Who-type adventures that largely consist of interacting with items and avoiding enemy sight cones. One season of four episodes was released, as well as The Gunpowder Plot (the only pseudohistorical episode of the bunch), which was intended to be episode one of season two. Unfortunately, the project was cancelled in favor of...

*squint*

... Doctor Who: The Eternity Clock, apparently. Which IGN gave a 5.5/10, and that was one of the higher review scores. Oof.

When the Time Lords kept their eye on everything, you could hop between realities, home in time for tea. Then they died, took it all with them. The walls of reality closed, the worlds were sealed. Everything became that bit less kind.

Queer crime is the best crime ✨ you all loved the last Nimona piece so much I decided to expand on it and include all our fav queer criminals.

New print I designed for this week’s conventions! All the prints are 11x17, signed, and on a museum quality paper because I don’t believe in that cheap shit.

You can get it this weekend at Flame Con (if you’re around) or on sale this week here at the shop link:

I'm doing a series of "Best Character Named X" polls where all the characters have the same first name but are from completely different media, feel free to send in name/charcacter suggestions, I'm posting one poll a day, check my pinned post for active polls

I heard you have pdfs?

oh DO I have pdfs.

i nabbed this link from someone else here on tumblr a longgg time ago; every single one of the eighth doctor spin-off books. all 73 of them. so many.

"wait, 73? that's a lot, are they any good?" some of them aren't <3 but some of them are the best things you will ever read. @johannesviii has a small rec list of some of the best books here, and also a pretty cool book-by-book liveblog that i like to sneak a look at before starting a book to check if it's worth it.

genuinely these books are full of so many incredibly cool concepts. they can be hit or miss just like the show, but when it's good it's SO good. everyone, go read vampire science now. or listen to it. you won't regret it, i promise.

Since our Fandom feels so small, and it's been a decade since the show ended, I've decided that any piece of media that featured(s) a cast member from House of Anubis counts as House of Anubis.

That's right, Doctor Who (Mr. Sweet was in a cold open of an episode), the Sarah Jane Aventures (Trudy), Game of Thrones (Victor), and the Barbie Movie (KT), just off the top of my head, are all now part of the HOA extended universe, and their fandoms are now ours!

time to admit I have actually made several DW characters in BG3. not planning to actually play as them but I had fun with the character creator

I did make Three too but I don't have a screencap because I made him Jo's dream guardian to add an extra little flair to the Emperor's manipulation :)

Greetings

Hello, this is my first post - I'm Viking. I like stuff and/or things. These include:

Doctor Who

Fantasy literature (eg: Malazan, Tyrant Philosophers, Green Bone Saga, Wheel of Time, etc)

JoJo's Bizarre Adventure (currently reading Part 7 in Japanese)

Music (mainly metal, a bit of jazz, etc) and other manga

RPGs - both the video game and the tabletop kind (I love more narrative focused TTRPGs such as Blades in the Dark, Heart: The City Beneath, and PBTA systems) (I also really enjoy JRPGs - currently playing Like A Dragon: Infinite Wealth)

I plan to post updates on this blog sporadically about all of these things and more

BEFORE VS. AFTER COLORING CHALLENGE

whenever i save colorings i post them to @creationsofthedark ; however, i rarely save them lately, but i try to :D i love making vibrant and colorful gifs, if there is blue... it will be 100% bluer. love changing colors, also love\hate color correcting gifs, it's fun cos my fav part of gifmaking is coloring, but sometimes the scene is total pain in the a55 to color, but it's still fun, i love playing around with settings and finding new ways to color gifs.

thanks for tagging me @sophiadimartino <3

tagging: @tennant @comicbookvillain @itwasmagic @pedro-pascal @bladesrunner @stars-bean whoever wants to do it :3
