I thought about scrapping a character I wasn’t playing much in favour of something else via race or faction swapping but the more I thought about the character and my ideas, the more it reaffirmed my interest and inspired me to write more and better. There will be no change. Just more RPing.
So I have famously bad luck where random chance is concerned. Only I actually won a bust piece of art for my mage, for which I am super happy.

My wife has been making homemade jewellery as a way to keep herself sane and give herself purpose while she is living the stay at home mum life. She’s found it especially hard during lockdown since she can’t even go out and socialise.
She used to make this kind of stuff before we met and sold them to friends and family and really felt like she should do it again.
We’d set her up her own website to sell them on, but after a few months she still hadn’t had any sales, probably in part due to people not having much money at the moment. It was getting her down and in the end she shut the site down.
A few days ago she made the move over to Etsy to see if it would help. Tonight she got her first sale from someone in the U.S that she doesn’t even know and she was so excited and full of joy.
Seeing her so happy and fulfilled, even if it’s only for a moment made my day. She’s really talented and after a hard few months she really deserved a win.

Just looked through all the mage tower artifact appearences to see if i regret not getting more than just neon kitty.
Aside from perhaps the assassination one, I’m good.
Guess the delight is that even after all this time NONE of them interested me (aside the obvious neon cat form which I got).
Much prefer the hidden appearences being fair.
Loving to walk in the nature, when it’s not too hot nor cold, you can smell the forest but it’s not some rotten mushroom filled stentch filling the air, there’s not much mosquitos or ticks anymore and deer fly season hasn’t yet begun.
Double post but screw that.

Had my daily outfit complimented today by a total stranger. It felt meaningful as my clothes are mostly just practical and mixed stuff and don’t reflect any style or “how I want to be seen” unlike it was perhaps 10 years back or so.

Multiple people have been generous and helpful towards me this week.

After a frustrating week, I made progress with a hobby I do when not feeling social enough to RP. One step closer to completion!

PSA: The Impressive Influence buff is back for September. 100% rep on WQs and emissaries. It stacks with this week’s rep buff and this time Uldum Accord and Rajani are included.

I just finished the Witcher 3 game, including it’s DLC’s.
Boy, what an amazing, beautiful game. 10/10. The story, the characters, the lore and the actual options that actually matter in the long run- Phenomenal RPG.
My game? I wasn’t even trying it, but apparently I got the “good” ending. Decided to trust Ciri with Geralt and let her choose/be free above all else rather than trying to shelter her.
The “good” ending:
- Radovid dies.
- Emyr wins the war, but restores vassal state rules to the conquered territories to avoid trouble. Life prospers. War is over.
- Skellige prospers under the Queen’s rule. Though no more raiding and pillaging, the people are happy and life is good.
- Geralt and Yennefer live happily ever after while Ciri sets off for path.
Bonus: Blood and wine. Duchess died, but I felt it was ok. I warned her about her sister like 9000 times but in the end she just had to blow it. Ah well, at least I’ve my own vineyard.
All in all, lovely 4+ weeks or so in this game. 100% recommended, loved it.

I’m working my butt off once I noticed that Uldum Accord and Rajani was included. Well, working my butt off on the second main that is.
i love my guildies <3
ive made some really good friends here. i have had some great RP and i’m excited for what’s coming with shadowlands with them by my side.
i dont really know how to word this good, but i had anxieties with going into voice and stuff when i first joined… due to some irl stuff, whatever… but over time ive become more comfortable with this lot and now im in voice almost every day.
im glad i found them.
I think I’ve finally caught up on most of the relevant lore I missed during my absence from the game, so I’m at a point where I feel comfortable dipping my toes into role-play once more.
- Had fun RP today with my guild, got some character development in.
- Unlocked Dark Iron heritage armour.
- Discovered that I really enjoy playing as a shaman.
I think I’d like to roll a warlock next.

Attempting to make some goblin short bread, lets see how it will turn out.
I feel a bit more confident with RPing again. Feel like I can actually do it once more. MMMM.
IRL positive stuff: I met a social worker not long ago. We’ve met once since and are meeting again today and she’s going to help me try and live a life < 3

I played darkest dungeon again the other day. Exploring the crimson court, a relatively okay run turned into a nightmare in short order. My treasured plague doctor, Esmec was the first to contract the blood curse and lost her mind to the accumulated stress of combat. As the group retreated from an unwinnable battle she lashed out in madness, exsanguinating my crusader before succumbing to a catastrophic heart attack. The hope of finding a cure for vampirism died that day.
A few missions later, the miracle of a mocking, cruel fate brought her back to life. Her existence may be a tragic comedy of existential horrors and anguish but I’m happy.
Managed to get Bully to run on Windows 10 and have been loving it. Very grateful to the Bully community for making stability mods, because it was CTD’ing without 'em. Very sad that R* has left the game in such a state, but I’m unsurprised after seeing the community backlash for GTA:O and RD:O regarding bugs and lack of anti-cheat.
I really wish R* would make a sequel (heard talk that one was in the works, but got canned). It’s one of my favourite games of all time. The soundtrack alone makes it a classic.

I’m lately having a lot of fun playing Hearthstone and slowly ranking up at my own pace with a tempo mage deck. Thank you Blizzard for giving me a free deck for coming back which made it a lot easier to craft something useful, since the free deck had some pieces I wanted for the tempo mage and the rest I could craft after dusting wild legendaries/epics.

It was the crimson court DLC where I lost the only character I would ever lose in that play through.
Sorry Vestal Prajanah you were my favourite healer.
That’s mostly the same ending as I usually get, only I managed to let both the Duchess and her sister survive in Blood and Wine, and Ciri becomes Empress. Figured that if Nilfgaard is going to rule the world, might aswell give them a good ruler.
Current playthrough though I decided to aid Dijkstra ( I am sorry Roche) and make a Northern superstate to keep Nilfgaard in check. Interesting enough, Ciri still becomes a witcher then even if you do take her to Emhyr.
