[Meta Thread] Lord Windos' PokeRole Adventure 2: The Wild Lands

[Lord Windos]

A question that I now see important to ask Windos: You mentioned Glinda is the Second in command of the Coven of Witches in Oz team. Who is the first? I though it is Oz, but its kinda of way to much obvious since she is the trainer. So I curious if the Leader is either Fortuna (due to her ability to "bend" fate by refusing the enemy use criticals, and be the oldest and wisest of Oz team and be kind of a mentor to her) or Hecate (in be literally Oz strongest member, despite in ironic be the youngest of Oz team).

Dont know. I just curious with that combination of words you said, that got me thinking.

I always assumed that Oz was the Leader by Default too. Even considering the unique dynamics at play with your Coven, the Trainer typically is the one that Leads, even if they can outsources a lot of decision making to their Smarter Teammates.

Right now, I view the hierarchy as follows

Top: Oz, Head Mistress, Purifying Healer
Second: Glinda (Historically, the Social Mistress, Heart's Respite), Fortuna (Successor, Strategic Mistress, Fate Weaver)
Persaphone: Third (Scheming Mistress, Trickster, D(read)-D(ead) Hexer)
Hecate: General/War Mistress (Falls under everyone else OUTSIDE of Combat, but takes the lead IN Combat or Violent situation)
Everyone Else: Junior Members

Also Windos, can I make a little request too? Can you via PM tell me the description of Glinda new appearance? She probably have some differences of her original form, but it would be cool to make a official art of her. I will ask some friends of mine to make a art of her.

I know I could ask Phantom about, but there comes a few problems about it:

 
Honestly, they don't look THAT different from her Baseline Species. Longer, more ethereal hair, eyes tinged a bit more violet than pink, and a matching hole in her chest that leads to a starry, hazy blackness the entrances all that stares too deeply into the Abyss. Has a natural floatiness to them like Persaphone, but lesser and more close to the ground if she choose not to walk. Thaaaat about it, really. The more profound changes are yet hidden away, needing a little extra to see the Light of day...

Oh no. No no no. No matter the timeline that girl still haunting us!

3 - And this is important. I refuse to use AI image. Its ugly, and doesn't have soul. And I love art made by people. And thats something I really want to do since this is a important moment. Specially now with Glinda now back to Oz life.

This, a hundred percent this! 100%ly appreciated and 100%ly supported, AI art can go and rot in hell.

For Dragonstrike : Ignore most of what is described in Phantom’s Post. Most of it has not happened… yet. Bern is still currently in the Park, but I can easily see his mind conjuring the eventual situation where he leaves and goes back, maybe even doing as Phantom said in a trace state.

For now, focus on just the meeting portion of Phantoms post and respond ‘in kind’ . At work, so can’t really get into weeds - will correct any misunderstandings later.

Ohh, I like that, yesyes, let's go with that! In other words: Bern remains at the park physically, but not so his spirit and soul and mind: These have already left alongside Zephy and Umbrelong and project meeting up with Seddi is his room at the Embassy. Sorta like an astral journey or out-of-body experience. Very cool.

Thinking at that side, make sense yeah. Its cool to know there some kind of hiearchy of between Oz and her sisters, and it is pretty nice. Despite the questionable methods of Oz decisions, its good to know her sisters still trust her a lot of times. Things might change a bit however when they talk. Also, kinda surprisily with Persephone be in a little highter than Hecate. Although yeah, in terms of trickery makes and hexes makes sense Persephone be a little highter. Although depending in how things go in the future, Bethy will problably learn a lot with her sister. Dite and Meza would problably be assistance with Glinda or Fortuna since they are the Second and Third of command. And Fortuna is the most old and wise between Oz Coven of Witches.

Nice! Might need to work on that desigh and then send to a friend of mine to work on it. Again, might take a while, but I will see what can be done. Hopeful soon.

First, lets not accept that as AI art. True art come from the soul, and in human hands. Image generation use art from other people and spill as a mockery of art. The person who do it didnt make himself, but the machine just generate something that doesn't have a soul. So I prefer to call it Ai Image, since you can only see, but its not have soul.

I might not post anything today because of Oz status, and because today I gonna GM my Abomination Vaults campaigh. It will be a little peaceful today since it will be more RP focus. Wish me luck!
