Something about Chetney's running joke about being Orym's dad AND ALSO Chetney being the O.G. #1 Dorym Shipper Of All Time just hits so good. Just the pure paternal wholesomeness from an otherwise feral little man.

wait- probably incredibly unoriginal D&D character idea-

some guy who straight up doesn’t believe that magic is real.

and like with less flashy spells it’s kinda excusable if u squint- like bardic inspiration is placebo, Druid craft is conveniently timed. But excuses will become crazy REAL FAST.

“SPARE THE DYING? I mean there’s no proof they were ACTUALLY dying! -you are of course a wonderful healer Patricia dear, but-”

but like, apart from this they’re just a super agreeable guy, and they’ll go along with whatever the party does. They just think a lot of weird crap happens around this world they don’t know about and the fireball that guy just shot out of his fucking hand was “such a crazy time for a meteor to come down from the heavens- yknow my niece is an astronomer, we can ask her about it!”

just a such a sweet, genuine guy that it makes you almost forget they have the most fucking ridiculous worldview until it’s brought up again.

Bonus points if they multiclass as a spellcaster later on, treating it like they’re just “humouring the grandkids” when they ‘cast a spell’. Even better they do all the iconic grandparent tricks - coin behind the ear, card disappearing, ball under the cups, and that just so happens to activate the same pathways in their brain that actual magic does- spell, verbal, and material components could be altered a bit for ultimate payoff too,

like just imagine some old guy saying ‘abracadabra!’ before fucking toasting a guy to death without even realizing.

and like u could technically make it pretty dark- the result of some cult, some warlock patron shit, a really sheltered upbringing, a literal curse that’s plagues their family of incredibly powerful spellcasters for generations - OR being some silly little guy who just happened to be living in total ignorance their whole life, or buys some weird conspiracy newspaper religiously.

um so anyways someone smarter than me can have fun with that brainfart :)

much love,

ghoul <3

I don't think people truly understand the gravity of Rafah being bombed.

There is nowhere left to go.

The lowest cost is $5,000 USD to flee to Egypt. There has been people paying over $10,000 USD.

That is the only option

Pay or die.

Rafah was the only place in Palestine promised not to be bombed. That promise is broken.

1.5 million people have nowhere to go!

Reminder, if possible, please donate to the PCRF, ANERA, Islamic Relief, Palestine Red Crescent Society, Medical Aid for Palestinians, Defense for Children International - Palestine, Doctors Without Borders, and all other trusted organizations.

Hello Everyone!

Today is the first day of the weeklong strike for a ceasefire in Gaza.

I have realized that I do not think the message has spread far, at least on this website. This might be due to the lack of internet in Gaza, it has been down for days. Not much can be said by the citizens there, it's like some people forgot about them. I encourage all of you to share this post, or make your own, letting everyone know about this strike. This is something that should transcend the aesthetic of your blog. My blog was a gimmick blog, but for this week, it is a blog for spreading information and awareness.

Bisan Odwa (@wizard_bisan1 on instagram) has called for this strike. She is a journalist from Gaza, who has been experiencing this horrid violence for 15 weeks. 107 days. 2568 hours.

These were the images she posted, calling for this strike:

Reblog this, share this. Do not stop until every supporter of Gaza knows what we must do this week.

Free Palestine, Free Gaza, Ceasefire now!

Donation train for Ahmed!

We are still far from reaching the new goal for Ahmed (@90-ghost) and his family to leave Gaza, so to bring some motivation to everyone on the dash, I'm starting a donation train.

To participate: add proof of your donation to Ahmed in a reblog! It doesn't matter how big or small it is, everything helps and every cent matters. (Make sure to obscure any personal information.) Please donate if you can — we want this goal to be reached quickly.

For those who can't donate — you can still reblog for more reach!

okay okay okay, so I recently had a brainwave that I literally can't stop thinking about and I feel the need to put here for no one cause why not-

one of my FAVOURITE character tropes in media (as an ace person) is the asexual dumbass (eg. Peridot, Lilith Clawthorne, WALL-E, Gyorik Rogdul (drawtectives) etc.) (not necessarily because they're not smart, but that they can be goofy as hell)

AND IVE JUST REALISED WHY.

Ace characters are nearly always portrayed as either aliens or robots, immediately making them the 'other' before we even scratch the surface. these characters are seen as 'above pleasure' - which is cool sometimes, but gets boring SO FAST when its done everywhere*.

these robots, aliens and even human ace characters are then written to be calculated, cold, and technically minded (once again, can be cool, but when its the only representation you're getting it gets boring (and stereotypical) as hell)

So if ace characters are usually portrayed as inhuman, how do we invert that stereotype? how can we make a wider spread of ace characters for people to enjoy? We make them the most human thing you can be - A TOTAL DUMBASS. A SCREW UP. WE MAKE THEM INCAPABLE OF KEEPING ANYTHING IN THEIR LIFE TOGETHER BUT SOMEHOW STILL DOING A LIL JIG IN THEIR TRASHED APARTMENT AT 2AM WHILE MAKING THEMSELVES A CUP OF MIDNIGHT CEREAL.

so, this is my petition for more dumbass asexual representation in media. Whether it's for an actual reason or just because I'm a dumbass asexual, we may never know.

much love,

ghoul.

*edit: someone mentioned the hints of purity culture in this sentiment of 'above pleasure'. and that's the truest shit ever actually. so yup nvm, that trope is actually both boring AND uncool. fuck purity culture <3

welcome to the ghoul blog!

probably just gonna be putting random art stuff I do here :)

interests: storyboarding, ttrpgs (critical roleee), rocks (just as a concept. I like em. they're neat 🪨), pokémon, drawtectives, and anything animation!

I am COMPLETELY unrelated to the protagonist of the hit cartoon Casper the Friendly Ghost by Famous Studios (1945-1959)

so don’t ask me if I am.

because I’m not.

I swear.
