The Twelve Huntsmen & The Unicorn (“El Oricuerno”)

A very happy Pride to you and yours! This episode is all about gender and kissing the people you want to, with a little vengeance sprinkled on top. Abbie recounts the Brothers’ Grimm tale of The Twelve Huntsman, which is a story about true love, disguise, the supposed gender binary, and a lion that’s either trolling hard or deeply anxious about all of it. Kelsey follows after with a Spanish fairy tale: The Unicorn, a magical story about community gender anxiety, disguise, true love, and more hunting.

Madeleine tells us the most romantic fairy tale we’ve ever heard on the pod, the Australian tale Yael and Murlwarra.

Chadwick’s lifelong love of the sea brings two very satisfying mermaid tales (ha, get it?) for MerMay, starting with The Siren’s Hunger, where a familiar character returns but is forever changed – then a new kind of tale called The Sea Remembers, a timely reminder to respect our natural resources. Then, Abbie finishes with a Ruth Manning-Sanders story we can’t believe we haven’t read on the podcast yet, Rake Up! where a mermaid and her good friend Mark get their vengeance, as mermaids do.

It’s the most wonderful time of the year! Come gather around the yule log and listen to some holiday tales: one with a big dose of colonialism (boo) before our favorite sad bisexual Victorian boy (yay!), Hans Christian Andersen brings the mood up for a change. Abbie tells a Mexican Christmas story about the poinsettia, or as we shall call it henceforth, cuetlaxōchitl (kwet-lah-SHO-shee-tl). Kelsey closes out 2025 with HCA’s new year’s tale, The Twelve Who Came by Mail, followed by The Snail and the Rosebush as a reminder to all of us to keep blooming and pay those who refuse no mind. Happy Holidays and see you next year!

The Barrel Bung & Ubasute-yama (Mother-Rid Hill)

Is anyone else having an existential crisis? No? Just us? Well strap in because it’s real clear on Fairy Tale Fix this week! Kelsey tells a Swedish fairy tale about how we humans keep having to learn the same lesson of not allowing people to hoard wealth over and over again in The Barrel Bung. Abbie’s story also has a strong message about the importance of taking care of people who some might deem unworthy in Japanese folk tale Ubasute-yama (Mother-Rid Hill). Our fix for both stories? Eat the rich.

Kelsey then reads a Scottish fairy tale entitled A Box of Fairies, where a smitten young lad is given very specific instructions, and do you think he follows them?

The Cloak of Rainbow Feathers & The Old Beggar Woman & The Three Lazy Sons

MAKE WAY FOR OUR FAERIE OVERLORD! That’s right, this week the Fixtresses are joined by their dark mistress, their patron saint, their mysterious benefactor – the one and only Gisselle M. Ingan (cue air horns). Gisselle tells her very own original fairy tale – The Cloak of Rainbow Feathers (it’s beautiful, fun, and quite the Fairy Tale Fix itself). Abbie follows up with two shorts from the Original Folk and Fairy Tales of the Brother’s Grimm – The Old Beggar Woman & The Three Lazy Sons.

Hacon Grizzlebeard & The Magic Eagle

Now usually we stan a wicked hussy, but for once we’re with the prince during Kelsey’s retelling of Hacon Grizzlebeard, a 1930’s screwball comedy masquerading as a Scandinavian fairy tale! Abbie follows up with The Magic Eagle, a Timotean (Venezuela) myth that honestly could use more shenanigans, as it features only competent protagonists who heed the call to action, make a plan, and follow all the rules. What. The. Fu*k.

Fairy Tale Fix is back! This week we thank our listeners for your patience as we navigate the loss of our good friend and podcast editor & producer, Dustin. We miss you dearly, buddy. Abbie reads a story that would have tickled him pink–Ride A Cockhorse to Banbury Cross, and follows it up with a tale about putting yourself first and taking that well-deserved nap, The Giantess’ Burden. Kelsey reads a Japanese folk tale called How An Old Man Lost His Wen, where he pops it, locks it, and drops it.

The post Jess’ October Movie List 2023 appeared first on Fantastic Worlds Productions.

]]>

It’s October, the most wonderful time of the year regardless of what that one song might have you believe. For me, this season (I’m sorry, I don’t call it “spooky” season, we need a new name) starts in September – much like how for Christmas fiends, the season starts in November – so I’ve been voraciously consuming horror media since late August. Almost nothing but! And much like I did last year, I want to now share with you some of my findings. Specifically, I’ll post one mini review of a horror film per day for the month of October, and hopefully someone out there will find my input useful, or at least objectionable enough to argue about it. I love a good argument as long as it’s undertaken with the right spirit in mind and no one minds if I say a lot of mean things about movies I didn’t like.

On the topic of saying mean things, I’m going to get serious for a moment because I want to acknowledge something that’s important to me when it comes to the very easy task of judging things and writing down those judgments: making anything is hard. Making my dumb little drawings is hard. Making cocktail recipes is hard. Making our podcasts is really hard. And making movies, in particular, is unbelievably, ridiculously hard. I’m a class A hater and I have fun relishing that role, but on a very earnest note, I hold a lot of respect and admiration for anyone who creates things, especially things as complicated as movies. Of course, there are caveats to that statement that I’m sure I don’t need to really get into (e.g. people who make things for nefarious reasons), but I hope you take my meaning. I am, by no means, doing something that’s even within the same universe of difficulty as creating a movie in spewing out my little thoughts on them. If I bore some technical knowledge or had particularly honed skills in media analysis, sure, really picking apart and judging a film could be considered far more of an investment, but I have neither. I’m just a thing with a lot of opinions who happens to have an abnormally intense interest in film, who once considered studying film and did not do so, and who now has only amateur opinions to level at films because of that choice. Whatever, I love it and I like to talk about it. I even love (most of) the ones I hate, as bullshit as that sounds. So, with all that said and understood, please go into this list knowing that my harshness is hyperbole, and I’m just a passionate freak who loves to overdo it with the flourishes. Hence this entire paragraph. Now please enjoy my list, or don’t and come see me about it. I’m on our Discord a lot. Just be ready, because I’m extremely fucking stubborn.

October 1 - Huesera: The Bone Woman

Rating: 4/5

Where to watch: Shudder

An emotional exploration of motherhood, womanhood, and the repressive expectations of gender roles. The horror is in the body, it’s in the human mind, and it’s in the societal pressures that drive women and non-women with wombs to feel isolated and backed into a corner by the idea of what we’re meant to be. Needless to say, I loved it.

October 2 - The Sadness

BIG BIG BIG Trigger warning for sexual violence. Also, there is a lot of gore. I mean, just endless amounts of it. There’s so much fake blood splashing around in this movie, it becomes absurd – cartoonish, even – and that’s very obviously intentional. Same goes for violence of every stripe. Seriously, I cannot stress this enough, if you’re not into crazy, non-stop violence and blood, this isn’t going to be your bag. But if you want to sit on the edge of your seat through an unhinged, fucked up buffet of carnage, chaos, and cannibalism, The Sadness will give you that experience. As the title implies, it’s probably going to bum you out, but it’s also going to keep you thoroughly entertained, I promise.

October 3 - Skinamarink

Rating: 2/5

Where to watch: Shudder

I attempted to go into this blind, but people were weirdly vocal about Skinamarink for a hot second when it first came out. I say “weirdly” because like… I don’t know why anyone would get so worked up about this movie one way or the other. It’s a mildly experimental slow-burn and basically, that’s all there is to it. I don’t care for over-reliance on jumpscares so I appreciated that they were few and far-between, but each of them is accompanied by an unnecessary and overly loud noise. You don’t need to destroy my cochlea to get your point across. It would in fact be far more unsettling to simply cut away without any additional sound. Aside from that, there are things I liked about it (particularly, its restraint), but cutting down its runtime to around half an hour would serve this movie well, I think. At least then I could appreciate what it’s trying to do instead of waiting with growing impatience for it to do something else. I dunno, it’s a dud for me, sorry. Maybe I’ve just watched too much analog horror. I do hope that Kyle Ball gets to make another movie because I’d like to see something else from him.

October 4 - Nocebo

Straight off, when I read the summary for this movie, I was worried about how the folk magic aspect would be handled. At this point, I’ve seen so many horror films that pervert and fetishize the spiritual practices of other cultures (see: nearly every depiction of voodoo and hoodoo) that I’ve grown wary of narratives that include these things. Nocebo, however, is not like so many of its predecessors. I am by no means an authority on this, so take my endorsement with a grain of salt, but if you’re looking for better reassurance, look no further than the Filipino actors and writers involved in the project themselves in this article (there are spoilers, so read at your own discretion). What Chai Fonacier and Ara Chawdhury have to say about representation and the importance of folklore and mysticism is fascinating. Anyway, I’m getting off-topic, so let me just say I really liked this movie, and even if you’re sometimes put off by narratives that focus heavily on social issues, it’s just good entertainment. Stories like this can sometimes come off as lackluster when storycraft is eschewed in favor of the message, but Nocebo is (mostly) subtle enough that it does justice to the subject matter.

October 5 - Resident Evil: Death Island

Y’all, this is an animated Resident Evil movie, so we all know what we’re gonna get with this, right? So here are the strengths and weaknesses, bearing that in mind. The strengths: the action is pretty fun. I love wild, over-the-top stunts, and you’re always gonna get a ton of those in an RE property. Jill gets the best choreography by far since she’s basically the main character, and she whips ass. It’s also nice to see all of our most beloved Resident Evil characters together in one place, though more thoughtful interaction between them would be great. Also, everything looks really good. Aside from a few uncanny facial expressions, the character models are great and the effects are well done. Finally, you gotta love that creature design. 

Big, nasty RE flesh monsters should feel a bit played out, at this point, but the villain’s final form in this movie is gnarly and disgusting in a fantastic way. On to the weaknesses: as I said, it’s a Resident Evil movie, it’s going to have some stilted dialogue, that’s just par for the course. Still, it’s pretty egregious here. The villain monologues completely defang our main bad guy because he sounds like a college freshman learning about absurdism for the first time. The voice actor tried his best with the material he was handed but man, you could add a few more belts and zippers to his outfit and drag and drop him into Kingdom Hearts no problem. That’s the level of writing we’re dealing with. The only thing I can say in this character’s favor is that there was an attempt made to give him some genuine justification for his bullshit. Like, he’s definitely not wrong that the heroes of this series never diagnose or treat the real problems that cause repeated bioterrorism attacks around the world and that they’re tied up with organizations that are deeply flawed and protect the status quo. His reaction to all of that is what’s stupid, though. Also the fact that he was like “I’ll make you feel my pain” but then finds out like five minutes later it didn’t pan out and shrugs it off like that part didn’t even matter to him and that he expected it wouldn’t work… ok, so what was the point dude? You knew you had four people who have repeatedly thwarted other bioterrorist masterminds just sitting around, easy pickins, and you were cocky enough to think nothing would come of that? Seems poorly thought out to say the least, and the feeling that nothing he’s doing matters persists throughout the entire movie. There’s simply no suspense, and never any concern that the four most important characters in the RE franchise will fail. That simply would not and cannot happen, so even when they seem like they’re down for the count, you’re just sitting and waiting for the part where they get better. It’s like Chris says near the end “Looks like us suckers win. Again.” 

Finally, I know that helicoptering away is the definitive and expected ending to any RE thing now, but I really wish they’d given the final scene some levity. Have the five of them go get a drink and get some nice character interactions in, I dunno. End with some charm! But no, we get a gore-splosion and a sunrise helicopter ride after some terrible quips. How very Resident Evil. Overall, not very good, but fun enough to watch (specifically for the ass kickings Jill dished out) that I didn’t mind it.

October 6 - Malum

Within under five minutes of the start of this film, I thought “no, I don’t think so.” Does that mean I stopped right there? Of course not. I watch everything to completion unless it’s the mosts abhorrent dogshit you can conceive of. And even then, well, I watched Halloween Kills all the way through, so you can deduce for yourself how much I value my own time. This movie is a remake of Last Shift, a tight, tense little film that centers around a rookie officer’s night in an abandoned police station. And I have a weird soft spot for Last Shift. I think it’s fun, creepy, and has some neat visual stuff going for it. Is it perfect? Hell no, but it’s miles better than this. For those who have watched Last Shift, here are some weird tidbits of note: the cult has apparently made itself very visible and obvious in this version of events, pulling such stunts as sitting on the new police station steps and singing, throwing piglet heads at police cars, and kidnapping previously saved victims. It’s honestly some Looney Toons shit.

In case I haven’t made this abundantly clear already, this movie has none of the delicacy of its predecessor. It over-tells, over-shows (see: the long, lingering shots on the entrance to the Holding cells – do you think she’s gonna go in there and it’s gonna be bad!?), and worst of all, over-explains everything. The scenes of the cult carrying out its murders, which were previously left to the imagination after pretty well-done descriptions in Last Shift, are shown in awkwardly filtered high-definition. The emotional turmoil of the mother, which we might have inferred from her brief phone conversations with her daughter in Last Shift, is displayed via wholly unnecessary exposition-dump scenes where she stupidly refuses to speak up for herself until the last possible moment. And the prickly and unstable character of Officer Cohen  is turned into a cartoonishly awful person. Very subtle, eh? As I said, Last Shift is by no means poetic cinema, but it does have some restraint. Malum has none. That unabashedness would ostensibly make it enjoyable in its absurdity – and I did end up laughing out loud at least 3 times throughout my watching experience – but the problem is that it’s still grasping at the tone set by the original, and that’s far too somber and serious to be fun. The one thing both films have going for them, it must be said, is their leading actresses. 

Both Jessicas are phenomenal, and sell the lackluster cult plot far better than one might expect of a film of this caliber. They also both manage to make it seem a lot less stupid than it is that a major feature of the character is reciting some sort of police code anytime they’re upset. Anyway, this one is a safe skip. Just watch Last Shift instead, seriously, it’s on Tubi for free and it’s actually enjoyable.

October 7 - Terrifier 2

I hesitated to even include this on my list, let’s start there. The main reason for that is that Terrifier didn’t really scratch any itch for me with the first film. Sure, it made me laugh at least twice that I can remember, and some of the kills were a good time. And sure, I do remember it, but that’s mostly as the basement trash movie that used dog food as doo doo in a scene where the killer wrote his own name on the wall of a restaurant bathroom. It wasn’t good, is what I’m saying. Terrifier 2 had it all to play for, then, as far as I’m concerned. I’m not someone who’s going to hold a bad first take against a series in every case, so I decided hey! Blank slate for you, Terrifier 2. Even with that, um, this shit sucks. Attempts at poking fun at the genre feel half-baked and unoriginal, the special effects range from terrible to mid, and good god, it is fucking long. There will be like four creative flourishes total in one of these things and they expect me to spend two hours slogging through the rest? No thanks.

Here’s a short list of the things I liked about it: Terrifier Junior (pictured above). Vicky giving birth to Art’s head. The Clown Cafe sequence. The performances of Art and Sienna. Here’s a selection of what I disliked about it: most of the kills are boring and drawn out. Every attempt at cleverness comes off as cringe. The plot is only funny-bad on paper; in practice, it’s grating and exhausting. And I think that point is indicative of what is largely wrong with these movies: they’re too self-aware, and everything comes off as calculated and trite as a result. To be truly good-bad, to schlock with the best of them, you need at least some degree of sincerity. You’re simply not going to get that from these films, from what I can tell. And hey, I could be totally wrong about the director’s intent here, but that’s the reading I got. Sorry. Tl;dr, there are some nuggets and gems to be found in this film, but overall, it fails at nearly everything it seems to be aiming for.

October 8 - Perpetrator

Rating: 2/5

Where to watch: Shudder

The first two words that came to mind within 20 minutes of this film’s start were “tonally confused.” Then I had the thought “feels like a higher budget, slightly toned down CW show.” But I was still having fun at that point so I shrugged and waited the feeling out. Well, it only got more tonally confused and more CW from there, so… my mistake. I’m not going to say that made it entirely insufferable, but it did give it a certain degree of suck that was hard to overlook. At the same time, I didn’t totally hate it. If you let it, it will carry you away into the surreal little world in which the events of the movie unfold, and as long as you keep your thinking cap off, you’ll have a good enough time in that world. If I had to pick one thing I liked about it most, it was how gross it was 🙂 In a fun way!

October 9 - Under the Shadow

As you might expect considering that this is set during the Iran–Iraq War, Under the Shadow is heavy. It’s a painful watch, brimming with emotion and tension and a great deal of subtext to chew on. It takes some time to get to the scares, but they’re effective once they hit. There are only a few near the end that start to veer more towards goofy rather than scary, and that’s mostly because of the effects. Overall, a really affecting, well-paced, well-executed film.

October 10 - Bedevilled

Rating: 0.5/5

Where to watch: Hi-Yah TV/Rent on Amazon

The tone of the early scenes of this film is fucked. Some of the acting is truly godawful, that’s the main problem, but there’s something else that just feels weird and dry and wrong about the whole thing. Still, I was at least holding out for some kind of satisfaction because the description told me this was a revenge film, and dang did I want to see that revenge once I got to know all the awful people in Bok-nam’s life. It also felt like it was leading up to some unhinged, fun kills, which I’m always up for. However, I had to wait more than an hour for anything even remotely good to happen, and that span of time left a truly rancid taste in my mouth. The director had little to no delicacy in depicting the grooming of Bok-nam’s child, and the actor portraying the little girl did not need to be exposed to the lines and scenes laying out the abuse for us to get it. I know this film was never going for subtlety, but damn, could at least one part not be told with all the finesse of a sledgehammer? At some point I started to think the whole thing was intended as a black comedy, as distasteful and stupid as that would be. Everyone is just so cartoonishly, one-dimensionally evil, and the acting verged on campy. The only positive thing I can say about this piece of shit is that the revenge is well-earned and a relief to witness.

October 11 - Hell House LLC II: The Abaddon Hotel and Hell House LLC III: Lake of Fire

I watched these so you don’t have to, and yeah, I decided to make this review a two-fer. In fact, we might call it a three-fer because I’m going to talk about the first movie now. Hell House LLC (which has been massively overhyped) is one of those films that starts off really promising and then quickly becomes intolerable. It’s the typical “none of these characters are compelling” problem that many such horror films tend to have, and it’s not made any better by the slow, mostly uninteresting haunting that happens around those characters. The ending twist would almost be good if it weren’t executed so poorly and stalled by an over-long slog of a film. So do the sequels fare any better? Short answer: no. Longer answer: anything redeeming found in the second movie is completely overridden by the goofy fake news segments and things of that ilk, and anything redeeming found in the third is completely washed away by the baffling absurdity and clumsiness of the climax. In both, the scares are repetitive and boring, but I found at least a few of them fun enough that I wasn’t rolling my eyes constantly. Still, these are bad movies and I wouldn’t recommend watching them to just about anyone. It’s just ideas ideas ideas with no execution. The end.

October 12 - Bones and All

My aunt – who does not love horror and is known to check out during long films – came downstairs from bed, saw one very early scene in the film, and sat down to watch this with me late at night when she was tired. I think that’s a pretty strong testament to its quality. That’s not to say it’s without its flaws, however. I found the first major climax to be kind of lacking, and I’m sorry to miss Sevigny, but I think it was partially her performance that turned it into a whiff. I also thought some of the book logic needed retooling for the big screen, and that was the other contributing factor. I mean, obviously a lot of that was done already, but there were still some bits left behind that just felt awkward and ill-fitting. Now, all that said, my score should tell you that I still liked this movie a lot and definitely recommend it.

Rating: 3.8/5

October 13 - The Hallow

Things I liked: the atmosphere, creature design, finale, and performances. Things I was less thrilled about: the overall lack of tension. Most of the scares are just not effective. Other than that, it was a fun time. There are a good handful of films with a similar premise/in a similar vein, but this one stands out from the others I’ve seen of that group. It was in its favor that they didn’t spend too much time focusing on researching and explaining the creatures, which is often a weak part of films like this. We learn just enough about the titular hallow to maintain a degree of mystery and interest.

October 14 - The Nun 2

Man… whatever. Nothing ever feels like it matters in these movies. They’re dumb, and they know they’re dumb, and sometimes that makes magic. Other times, it makes whatever this is. I tried to turn my brain off and just enjoy the goofy parts, and I was able to produce a chuckle approximately 3 times, but damn I am so sick of the Conjure-verse. This was my last time giving any property related to it a shot. The only positive thing I have to say is that it’s at least marginally better than the first one, but frankly, that means next to nothing considering the films we’re talking about here. It’s just different degrees of shit.

October 15 - The Killing of a Sacred Deer

Do yourself a favor and do not look up anything about this movie before you watch it. I think part of its ability to induce anxiety and distress is dependent on not knowing what’s going on until you’re in the thick of the film. In fact, what lowers its score for me is that without the tension of the unknown, its slowness becomes sort of grating. Like, seriously, some of the scenes way overstay their welcome. All that said, it’s good. It’s upsetting in a way I can appreciate, and the experience of watching it – perhaps even if you do know what to expect – is well worth it.

October 16 - Satan's Slaves: Communion

I preferred the first one (you should check it out). That’s primarily because Bahri’s trajectory in this bummed me out, though. Secondarily, it’s because there’s a really annoying camera flash sequence at the end that went on way too long and was initially accompanied by a noise that made me want to jam a pencil in my ear. And finally, it’s because there were a few too many sub-plots. Disregarding those things though, this was a lot of fun. The main strength of these films is the characters and the family dynamic – and that was just as good this time as it was in Satan’s Slaves – but almost as important is the atmosphere. The director always gets it juuuuust right as far as I’m concerned. To put all this another way, there was some setup for a sequel, and I am happily anticipating it after Communion.

October 17 - Warning: Do Not Play

This started off really promising, tiptoed through the second act with little to latch onto, and ended with a string of cliches. I think trying to sell a meta-narrative is just a bad idea unless you can really nail it. This does not nail it. We needed a foil for the main character- a woman obsessed with creating a horror film who then becomes obsessed with a ghost snuff film – and that was not provided. I know some would claim that’s what the director of the ghost snuff film is for, but he’s far less a foil than he is a glimpse into Mi-jung’s future if she keeps pursuing her obsession. Maybe I missed something about her younger friend and he’s meant to be the foil, but he’s practically a blank slate and doesn’t express the love for horror that Mi-jung and Jae-hyun do, so I really don’t think so. I dunno, it wasn’t terrible, it just wasn’t all that good either.

October 18 - Super Dark Times

A horror drama about annoying teenage boys. As you can imagine from that description, there is a lot of insufferable dialogue to sit through. There’s also some good nuggets, but a ton of the experience of watching this is putting up with how grating most of the characters are. It’s also slow, which is not necessarily a bad thing, but it’s something to consider if you’re interested in checking it out. Still, I liked this film quite a bit. The thick unease that settles in as events unfold is cut well with some supernatural-feeling dream sequences, and the whole thing stays grounded in a way that twisted my stomach. More drama than horror, I’d say.

October 19 - The Heretics

The opening scene – an artlessly shot cult sacrifice – told me this was going to be shit. It has no tension, it goes on too long, and the cultist costumes are barely passable on the creepiness meter. Then the tone gets all serious and dramatic, but the problem is that Gloria, the main character, and her girlfriend Joan have hair and makeup styling that is so drastically different from the rest of the cast, it immediately ruins the atmosphere. And that’s something that will persist. No matter what our main character goes through, her eye makeup and falsies always stay perfect. She may get gunked up in other ways, but you know, gotta stay pretty through it all. Anyway, this then becomes a captivity movie, and man, it’s a fucking boring one. The only interesting thing that happens for quite awhile is that Gloria’s girlfriend goes apeshit while looking for her. Anyway, the weird thing about this movie is that it kind of verges on being interesting here and there, and it’s not even terribly made nor poorly acted. It’s bad in an unexpected way, is what I’m saying. Which is a shame, because I love me a monster transformation movie. If you want to see what little good there is to be found here, just watch the last 20 minutes and you’ll get the gist.

October 20 - Head Count

I can’t pinpoint just one thing that was responsible for this film not working, it simply didn’t. There are all these shots of people lurking around that are intended to create tension, but the anxiety never comes through. The intervening scenes are either pleasantly banal or slightly awkward; my discomfort came from secondhand embarrassment more than anything else. About 50 minutes in, stuff starts to veer in a more interesting direction, but then there’s some computer nonsense that turns it goofy. If I had to name a few nice things about the film, I’d say it looks good, the final 20 minutes are kinda fun, and it’s not too long. Aside from that, there’s not much to see here.

October 21 - Lucky

An interesting premise well-told. It’s not immediately evident what Lucky is really about at the start, but as our main character May goes through the same experience night after night with the same reactions from the people around her, it becomes unsettlingly clear what the message is. In fact, it gets a bit too heavy-handed for my taste towards the end, but up until the parking garage, I was loving this. Even after the parking garage, I really enjoyed Lucky. It certainly helps that May’s feelings are all too familiar.

October 22 - La Llorona

Gripping and impeccably made. So many movies have trampled this folk tale that I was kind of expecting schlock in spite of the beautiful cover and promotional image. Instead I was met with a thoughtful, quiet, and engaging tale centered around revenge and justice. My one criticism is not that it’s too long as I might normally say, but that because it’s quite clear what our destination is, the journey sometimes crawls where it should run. Maybe I’m just impatient, but I don’t think I’m alone in that sentiment. Regardless, a lovely watch, though not the kind of horror you’ll want to seek out if you prefer lots of scares.

October 23 - The Power

This film starts off with a tried and true setting for horror (a hospital at night) throws in a meek protagonist with a troubled past (Val) and then attempts to delve into issues it’s not entirely capable of grappling with. The first complication is that some of the characters – fellow nurse and mean girl Babs, in particular – lean more caricature than genuine portrayal, which is a shame because there is tension and atmosphere to be found when those characters aren’t throwing scenes off-kilter. In that vein, the second problem is that when you’re dealing with such topics as sexual assault, misogyny, class dynamics, and abuse of power, subtlety is key. For want of that, you need a telling that’s less bleak and somber than this, or at least one with a unique artistic direction (à la our 10/21 entry, Lucky). Instead, what we get in The Power are many moments of clunky, on-the-nose dialogue and action that do a disservice to the narrative. From our main character Val’s ridiculous contorting and jerking around, to Babs’ schoolyard mockery, so many scenes come off as silly rather than striking. The ending most of all. Again, a shame, because I appreciated the parallel narratives of the ghost and Val herself, and the sometimes-successful attempt at telling a story about the intersection of classism and sexism. Anyway, this movie is very nearly good, and that means I can’t put it in the dud category, but if you’re not a pretty diehard horror fan, you’re probably not going to find much to latch onto here.

Rating: 2.5/5

October 24 - Evil Dead Rise

I thought the bloodiest movie on this list was going to be The Sadness, but Evil Dead Rise has it beat by approximately one elevator’s worth. Anyway, this was nasty and crazy and fun in nearly all the right ways. The fact that they keep making Evil Dead stuff and it keeps being pretty good is a welcome surprise. It does suffer from some weird writing choices and you will likely reach the gore desensitization threshold pretty quickly, but it was still a good time. A great one to watch with friends.

Rating: 3/5

October 25 - School's Out

The main issue with this film is one of pacing. The odd happenings witnessed by our protagonist Pierre become repetitive without breaking new ground, leaving us mired in the same sensation for long enough that it loses its edge. At least one of the samey scenes of the students being weird could have been cut without losing anything and every scene of the children performing needed to be trimmed by half. The content of the film, otherwise, is fine. It’s a generational divide movie with a bit more substance to it than the usual “evil children” type of story, but it’s still nothing groundbreaking, which isn’t a bad thing. I quite liked it, and along with the strong performances, it made for something mostly engaging if sometimes, as I mentioned, a bit slow.

October 26 - The Crescent

Rating: 2.2/5

Where to watch: Shudder

I’ll be honest, you can kind of win me over with cool visuals as long as the rest of the project isn’t completely awful, and this movie does have some really cool visuals. Some of the editing choices almost veer into student project territory, but I think they toe the line well enough that it doesn’t hurt my impression of the film as a whole. The performances, on the other hand, are where things get a bit rocky. They range from decent to shaky, with no one doing an outright terrible job. The mother’s understated, extremely depressed demeanor works at first, but during the last 15 minutes of the film, you can tell she’s not necessarily ready to play out more emotion-intensive scenes. There’s a neat reveal during this section that makes up for that, so I won’t harp on it. There are parts – and the end sequence is one of them – where the low budget really shows, but taken as a whole, I was willing to overlook those parts. And really, now that I’ve written all that out, I’ve basically stated that I’m breezing past some mediocre performances, low-budget struggles, and weird edits because I dug the visuals and the vibe. And I stand by that. I kind of liked this movie. It did the whole sad, meandering slow-burn thing but I felt the tension they were aiming for right in the gut, probably because there was a very small child involved. I don’t know if that’s cheating or what, but it worked about as well as Skinamarink and I enjoyed this marginally more than that so… oh well. 

October 27 - Hellraiser (2022)

Being better than 70% of all Hellraiser movies isn’t the highest of praise, but it’s what I can offer to this film. It’s very, uhhhh, competent. It’s also missing some things. The watching experience is frustrating that way. This film often brings you just to the edge of something good, then reels it in faster than you can blink. It was honestly tiring. That being said, I mostly loved the look and lore of the updated cenobites, and I found the third act pretty fun. I think I would have really liked this film if the non-fantastical plotline had been handled better. The drug addiction story didn’t fall flat on its face, but it didn’t compel or interest me much, and it barely even served its main intended purpose.

Rating: 3/5

Where to watch: Hulu

October 28 - Cobweb

A genuine Halloween movie, and yes, there is a difference between Halloween movies and horror movies. It’s not just that it’s set around and on Halloween day, it’s the tone, the slight silliness, the fairytale dreaminess of it all. Anyway, this film is not incredible, but if you let it carry you away, it’s a super good time. Conceptually, it’s goofy, but the execution is so good that it works. You could kind of see the point where they ran out of money, but it didn’t take enough away from the rest of the film that I care. I’m sad to see that this film seems to have flopped because I think it deserves more love.

Rating: 3.5/5

Where to watch: Hulu

October 29 - Candyman (2021)

I don’t know why it took me so long to getting around to this. The original Candyman is one of my favorite horror films, and this is a more than worthy sequel. There are a few moments where it over-explains itself, and the first act is wobbly, but by the end, I found myself fully engrossed and chilled.

Rating: 3.5/5

Where to watch: Prime Video

October 30 - Martin

I wanted to include at least one old film on here since I’ve been revisiting classics and filling in holes in my watch history. I thought Martin would make a good candidate since I don’t think I’ve talked to a single other person who’s seen it, and that’s a real shame because it’s genuinely affecting. It’s not a light-hearted watch, so don’t put it on if you’re already in a dark place, but if you’re in the mood for a compelling – if dreary – film, Martin is quite good.

Rating: 3.5/5

Where to watch: Internet Archive

October 31 - Talk to Me

My expectations were high and I was not disappointed. This film is quite good. I hope we get an extended cut at some point because I would love to see more of Mia’s development, honestly. There are a few moments that don’t quite work perfectly, but overall, this was so fresh and creepy and disturbing I couldn’t find much that really let me down about it.

Textual Tension Crossover! The Twa Sisters (Bonnie Swans) & The Bamboo Hewer

It’s Valentine’s Day – do you need a break from the gooey romantic vibes? Rachel and Margie from Textual Tension come on the pod to share a 1700s murder ballad (The Twa Sisters, or Bonne Swans), and the Japanese fairy tale that was the inspiration for an InuYasha villain (The Bamboo Hewer). The sexual tension is nil, and the romance is unrequited (at best) in this hilarious episode.

The post Getting Started with Pathfinder appeared first on Fantastic Worlds Productions.

]]>

Welcome to the world of Pathfinder, a popular fantasy role-playing game with a dedicated community of players and fans. With the recent surge of interest in the game, we wanted to take a moment to highlight some of the resources available to those new to the system.

 

The Beginner’s Box is a great place to start for those new to Pathfinder. This box contains everything you need to get started, including a rulebook, pre-made characters, and a simple adventure. You can find the Beginner’s Box for free on Paizo’s website at https://paizo.com/pathfinder/beginnerbox.

For those looking for a space adventure, we recommend checking out Paizo’s Starfinder rules-set. With the ability to play as a space orc or pilot giant mechs on far-flung planets, Starfinder offers a unique and exciting gaming experience. The Starfinder Beginner Box might also be a good starting point for you.

If you’re coming from 5e, we suggest taking a look at Pathfinder 2e. The fully free rules for this edition of the game can be found at https://2e.aonprd.com/. The website “Archives of Nethys” also has an excellent guide for players new to the system, which can be found at https://2e.aonprd.com/PlayersGuide.aspx.

Finally, for those looking for a convenient and easy-to-use character builder, we recommend checking out the free online builders at https://pathbuilder2e.com/ or https://wanderersguide.app/. These online tools will make it easy to create and manage your characters.

Additionally, we welcome you to check out our podcast Far Beyond the Stars which features the Starfinder Rules System and Fantastic Worlds Podcast which features the Pathfinder Rules System.

We hope you enjoy your time with Pathfinder and have many fantastic adventures. The community is friendly and supportive and you will find a lot of resources and people to help you on your way.

Abbie & Kelsey record an episode of Fairy Tale Fix IN PERSON! Together! In the same room!! We have a ton of fun recording under a big blanket fort in Abbie’s house, and Kelsey rolls some dice for her story, Dough, which is a very random tale about a witch’s obsession with an eternal dough-based object, probably. Abbie reads from A Book of Magic Horses and rolls dice for a tale called Master Billy, which leaves us very disappointed and wondering… where is the magic horse!?

What is that? Well, kind of exactly what it sounds like: I'll be watching one horror movie a day for the month of October and writing a very short review.

The post Jess’ October Movie List appeared first on Fantastic Worlds Productions.

]]>

What you will find below is a list of films I watched for each day of the month of October 2022, along with my rating and short review of each. Below that, a partial list I cobbled together in 2021 when I tried to do the same thing, and some other horror film recommendations and reviews. Enjoy!

October 1 - Umma

Film: Umma

Where to watch: Netflix

Rating: 1.5/5

I regret that I have to say this, but the month’s offerings started off with a whimper. I really wanted to like Umma. It has some good elements, it just doesn’t really deliver on what it’s promising. Especially when what it’s promising is such an important and difficult story to tell. Sandra Oh is always great – that goes without saying – but she can’t act away a flawed script and jumpscares that don’t even elicit a jump. Certain moments were very affecting, but ultimately, I came away from this film underwhelmed and sad for the wrong reasons.

October 2 - You Won't Be Alone

Film: You Won’t Be Alone

Where to watch: Peacock

Rating: 4/5

Even before watching the rest, I know for certain that this film is unlike any other on this list. And unless you’re looking for a gentle folktale with a smattering of dark elements and gore, I wouldn’t really offer it as a horror movie recommendation. That being said, I would certainly recommend watching it when you have the time. It’s breathtaking, it’s aching, it’s novel. 

My one criticism is that it could be edited down just a touch, but that’s something you will hear me say often. I’ll probably start to sound like I hate long movies, but that’s not true. As long as the time is used effectively, I don’t mind, I just found that You Won’t Be Alone became repetetitive at times.

October 3 - Fresh

Film: Fresh

Where to watch: Hulu

Rating: 3.5/5

Fun! I don’t even know what else needs to be said. This one was really fun. It struck a great balance between nauseating and charming, and everyone in it was fantastic. I could write some rambly shit about the feminist messaging and the parts that were lacking and so on and so forth, but I think this movie is quite simply a great time and worth a watch.

October 4 - X

Film: X

Where to watch: Currently only available to rent

Rating: 3.5/5

This film is one of the only (if not the only) Texas Chainsaw inspired films to actually get me on board. It pays homage to 70s horror and exploitation films without limiting itself to the constraints of those genres. This film has a good deal more humanity than your typical slasher, for one. But it’s still grounded and gritty and smutty and gory. I think there are one or two scenes I found myself checking out from, but otherwise, it made me feel shock, unease, and amusement in spades.

October 5 - The Long Night

Film: The Long Night

Where to watch: Shudder

Rating: 1/5

This movie takes itself very seriously. This movie is also very dumb. The main characters are unlikable New York yuppies, the plot is dull and plodding, and there is not a lick of tension or fear to be found anywhere over the course of its 90 minute runtime. I got a good laugh out of the first murder scene because the music they played over it was kind of bonkers, but aside from that, I was bored out of my mind. I’m giving it a point for having some cool visuals, good performances, and at least not making me angry.

October 6 - So Cold the River

Film: So Cold the River

Where to watch: Currently only available to rent

Rating: 2/5

I dunno. That sums up how I feel about this movie. It has some spooky parts that I very much enjoyed. Then again, there are lots of other parts I could take or leave (leaning towards leave). I think this movie might be up someone else’s alley, but for me it didn’t really hit.

October 7 - The Other Lamb

Film: The Other Lamb

Where to watch: Hulu

Rating: 4/5

Disturbing, gripping, and intense. This is not a standard horror story, and one I wouldn’t look to if you want typical thrills and chills. It is a fantastic movie, however, and one I highly recommend. Trigger Warning for rape.

October 8 - Bliss

Film: Bliss

Where to watch: Shudder

Rating: 3/5

I hate these people. And the movie wants me to hate them, I’m pretty sure of that. Watching this made me wonder, momentarily, was I this obnoxious during my partying days? But upon reflection, even though I definitely was obnoxious, I don’t think I was nearly as unbearable as the characters in this film. However, I will give it points for being a vampire movie that actually gets gory and horrifying with it, and also for having cool visuals and music that’s right up my alley. So like… I kind of liked it? The 3 I’m giving it is a very personal 3. And if you, like me, sometimes enjoy style over substance, you can skip the first 30 minutes or so of this film and get right into the parts that make it fun. That’s the only watching experience I can really encourage for most people.

October 9 - The Black Phone

Film: The Black Phone

Where to watch: Peacock

Rating: 3/5

I was pleasantly surprised by The Black Phone. It delivers on an interesting concept, the pacing is pretty good, and the performances are, on the whole, decent. The one thing I have to note is that the film teeters on the edge of corniness basically the entire time, and often falls right into it. A little cheese is expected for a film like this, but some scenes are full-on cringey.

October 10 - Barbarian

Film: Barbarian

Where to watch: In theaters/HBO Max on Oct.25

Rating: 3.5/5

Trigger warning: references to rape, use of the f-slur. This movie threw me for a loop repeatedly, and I don’t want to give away much more than that because I think you should see what I mean for yourself. I was entertained, surprised, and jarred. Suffice it to say, I recommend Barbarian.

October 11 - The Cursed (2021)

Film: The Cursed (2021)

Where to watch: Hulu

Rating: 2/5

I docked this movie several points because I truly cannot believe that the crux of a movie made in the year 2021 is a Romani curse. How have we not moved past this? There was potential for this film to turn out much more interesting if the rest of it weren’t so messy in regards to its handling of the Romani victims. 

The entire time, it’s like you can hear the creators going “aww, well, listen, we know it was real bad what the rich guy did to those folks, but you know, it’s also real bad that they cursed the entire village, innit? They’re definitely worse, right? You agree.” I instantly got a bad taste in my mouth during the inciting incident and it would not go away long enough for me to truly enjoy the redeemable parts of this movie. It’s visually lovely, unique, and has several very effective scenes, but all of that is entirely overshadowed by racism. Racism that they try and fail to grapple with in the plot, funnily enough.

October 12 - As Boas Maneiras (Good Manners)

Film: As Boas Maneiras (Good Manners)

Where to watch: Amazon Prime/Shudder

Rating: 3.5/5

I had absolutely no idea what was in store for me when I ran across this movie on Shudder. Part love story, part family drama, part… musical? Sort of? But it doesn’t even become a musical until like an hour in. This movie is weird, touching, a little silly, and entertaining all around. My nitpicks are that it is very long (at least for my taste) and the CGI is uhhhh not effective, but I’ll give it a pass on both counts because I truly don’t think I’ve ever seen anything else like Good Manners, and I don’t know that I ever will again.

October 13 - The Endless

Film: The Endless

Where to watch: Tubi

Rating: 3.5/5

All horror is very difficult to get right, but cosmic horror in particular is so rarely tackled ably that it’s a real treat when it is. The Endless is by no means perfect, but it’s one of the better cosmic horror films I’ve seen. It’s well acted, well shot, and well written. The filter over the whole movie is not my favorite thing in the world, and they lost me a bit during the last few minutes, but those flaws don’t diminish what this film accomplishes otherwise.

October 14 - The Last Thing Mary Saw

Film: The Last Thing Mary Saw

Where to watch: Shudder

Rating: 1.5/5

A droning and emotionless affair. The relationship that so much of the plot hinges on is poorly established and given almost no life. To put it bluntly, there’s a lot of tell and very little show. By the time anything interesting happens, you’ll have already sat through a punishing, bleak 45 minutes of quiet 19th century meandering. And that’s a shame, because I like the story being told and many of the techincal aspects of this film, it’s just that the execution is lacking in pathos. I’m not saying this was the worst thing I’ve ever watched, but it’s certainly not worth your time, and at a relatively short runtime of 89 minutes, that’s saying something.

October 15 - Hellbender

Film: Hellbender

Where to watch: Shudder

Rating: 2.5/5

This movie is kind of goofy but also kind of great. If you can look past questionable CGI and some scenes that are a bit cringey and indulgent, Hellbender will give you a good time. One of the things to its credit is that it didn’t go in the well-trod direction I was initially expecting. I think if it had, it would have been out of its depth considering the catalogue of existing movies telling that story. But because it veered into different territory and added some unique flavor to its witch mythology, it managed to stand out enough to keep me interested.

October 16 - Tigers Are Not Afraid

Film: Tigers Are Not Afraid

Where to watch: Shudder

Rating: 4/5

The children are precious, the visuals are charming, and the story is dark but intriguing. This movie is both fantastical and bleak, and it struck me more than almost anything else I watched for this list. It’s a project that wears its influences on its sleeve, but I don’t think that’s to its detriment at all. It takes those influences and molds them in a novel and wonderful way.

October 17 - All the Moons

Film: All the Moons

Where to watch: Shudder

Rating: 3/5

I would describe All the Moons as a dark fairytale drama, and a pretty successful one at that. It was occasionally a bit slow for my taste, and my suspension of disbelief was tested a few times, but I came away happy that I watched this film. It didn’t blow my socks off, but it certainly left an impression and even got me crying. That being said, it is very long, so if you don’t enjoy a slow burn, you’ll want to skip this one.

October 18 - The Dark and the Wicked

Film: The Dark and the Wicked

Where to watch: Shudder

Rating: 2/5

There’s nothing particularly fresh or new in this film, and unfortunately, it’s also pretty sparse in the scare department. There are some effects that were enjoyable and well-executed, but that’s about all it has going for it. It’s a slow burn, and a dour one at that, so as you might expect, I found it much too long. 

One of the other things I really disliked about it is the fact that it’s religious horror, and specifically, US American religious horror, which I find tiresome and grating. Also, in typical horror movie fashion, the stubbornness of some of the characters just got annoying by the end. Anyways, you can safely skip this one.

October 19 - The Wailing

Film: The Wailing

Where to watch: Tubi

Rating: 4/5

I’ve had this on my list for years, but never got around to tackling it because, well, with a runtime of over 2.5 hours, it kind of sounded like homework. However, once you take the time to watch it, this movie is as fantastic as rumored. Filled with dark humor and horror in equal measure, The Wailing does not waste the time it asks of you. It’s entertaining and eerie from start to finish.

October 20 - Halloween Ends

Film: Halloween Ends

Where to watch: Peacock

Rating: 3/5

For those interested in a spoiler-filled review, you can find it at the very bottom of this page. Let me say right off the bat that I wasn’t even planning on watching this movie let alone reviewing it. What turned me around after the boring, trite, and eye-rollingly bad second entry to this trilogy was a thought that occurred to me after mishearing that the film would partially involve the Covid-19 pandemic. That thought was: what if Michael dies from covid? 

That would be so fucking funny, I couldn’t pass up the opportunity to find out for myself if that’s how things would play out. As I said, sadly this was misheard information, but the way this film unfolded was actually better, though less funny. Thus, I came away from Halloween Ends surprised, satisfied, and entertained. Is this movie perfect? No. But is it a pretty good watch? I really do think so, and that’s a rare sentiment for me when it comes to the Halloween series. Especially after Halloween Kills. You can find my thoughts on that pile of dogshit somewhere down below. Thankfully, you don’t have to watch it to enjoy Halloween Ends.

October 21 - The Night House

Film: The Night House

Where to watch: HBO Max

Rating: 3/5

Has some pretty neat, spooky stuff going on. I think I would rate it a bit higher if it didn’t show its hand so much near the end, but that’s a common horror problem, so I’m not docking it too many points. The scares are fairly effective, there’s some great imagery, and the lead actress gives a fantastic performance. There are some holes here and there, but overall, a solid film.

October 22 - V/H/S/94

Film: V/H/S/94

Where to watch: Shudder

Rating: 3/5

You can always count on a V/H/S anthology to be gory, shocking, disgusting, fun, and, most of all, stupid. V/H/S/94 delivers on what the rest of the series has promised, and it’s probably my favorite entry in the franchise so far, though I’m going to dock it some points for having an extremely cringey ending. If you sit down to give this one a go, make sure you’re approaching it knowing that you’re in for a lot of nonsense.

October 23 - Crimes of the Future

Film: Crimes of the Future

Where to watch: Currently only available to rent

Rating: 4/5

A good Cronenberg is like nothing else. His films are always full of fantastic spectacle, but they also leave you with something to chew on for the days, weeks, months to follow. Crimes of the Future has given me a lot to digest, but as with any film this unique, I can only give a qualified recommendation. If you’re a Cronenberg fan, you should certainly watch it. If you’re not, but you still enjoy thought-provoking, artful cinema, you should certainly watch it. If you want something light or escapist or brainless (which is sometimes what I’m looking for myself), try a different movie. There are some good popcorn movies in this very list 😉 

October 24 - Kuwaresma

Film: Kuwaresma

Where to watch: Currently only available to rent

Rating: 1.5/5

I almost didn’t include this film on this list. The reason I decided to, in the end, is so I can maybe warn a few other trans people away from it. Or, at least prepare you for what you’re going to get if you choose to watch Kuwaresma. The main character, Luis, is trans. And as is so often the case in cis-created cinema, this is treated insultingly and with casual transphobia. The framing of Luis’ transness is that he “convinced” himself he was a boy to avoid his father’s abuse, and to gain some degree of control in his life. 

This is not only a transphobic narrative, but an actively dangerous message to send. I don’t even really want to talk about this movie much more because I’m so disappointed by that aspect of it, but if I had to give it some praise, I’d say the acting, set design, and cinematography were all great. The story is a muddled, half-baked mess and it’s full of hackneyed jumpscares, so on the whole, a mediocre movie at best with a dash of transphobia to really round it out. Oh, and the cherry on top: it’s too fucking long.

October 25 - Howling Village

Film: Howling Village

Where to watch: Amazon Prime

Rating: 2/5

Kind of a dud. It’s fine enough for a half-hearted watch, but not really bringing anything special to the table. The atmosphere is completely unscary, and the effects are lame as hell, probably because they’re trying to be realistic instead of showing me something interesting. I was interested in the story, but the delivery did nothing for me.

October 26 - Knife + Heart

Film: Knife + Heart

Where to watch: Shudder

Rating: 5/5

After reading the synopsis for Knife+Heart, my first thought was “this movie was made specifically for me,” and I was so incredibly correct. Giallo-inspired! Soundtrack by M83! Explicitly homosexual! What more could I ask for? I won’t say it was a perfect film, but it was perfect for me. I’m trying to exercise some restraint and not drone on and on about this one, so I’ll sum it up by saying it’s simply fantastic entertainment and I’m in love with it. TW for sexual assault.

October 27 - Still/Born

Film: Still/Born

Where to watch: Shudder

Rating: 2/5

I was going to write about Bodies Bodies Bodies here, but I never got around to seeing it. So instead of something reportedly sort of goofy but good, and full of insufferable characters, I watched something rather bleak with mostly okay characters. This whole movie was pretty much just that: mostly okay. It lost me a bit during the obligatory “meet a previous victim” sequence, and any of the other times they had the antagonistic entity speak. Its voice made me giggle. Other than that, though, I kind of liked it. Well-trod territory aside, it had a decent spookiness factor, wasn’t over-long, and didn’t always play its typical horror movie beats in a completely typical way.

October 28 - The Medium

Film: The Medium

Where to watch: Shudder

Rating: 3.5/5

I have a lot of mixed feelings about The Medium. On the one hand, I think it’s a good horror movie. It’s scary, it’s disturbing, it’s gory. I actually felt a little bit freaked out after I watched it, and that’s no mean feat considering that I’ve been voraciously consuming horror content since I was a small child. However, with a runtime of over 2 hours, I think we all know what I’m going to say here. It’s too fucking long. It simply is.

It stood out to me even more when I realized that this is a sibling film, in essence, to The Wailing, an even longer film which I felt wasted far less of my time. I’m not saying what I was served over the course of this film was pointless or worthless, I’m just saying some additional editing could have gone a long way. Cut down the number of B-roll shots of (beautiful) scenery, maybe. Or include fewer frames of interstitial action. Remove, perhaps, one or two of the many nightcam sequences wherein samey possession-related things happen. Something! Do SOMETHING about it. Frustration over that aside, my second gripe with this film is that it doesn’t maintain its documentary feel well. In fact, it seems like the fact that it’s supposed to be a mockumentary is thrown away entirely on numerous occasions, the most egregious instances occurring during the climactic events of the story which I won’t spoil. Let me just say that I sighed the loudest as a camera was pointed directly into the face of something antagonistic as someone was being mauled. It jolted me directly out of my suspension of disbelief, and after that, I no longer felt the cold, coiled dread that had been building in the pit of my stomach anymore. I just sat back and thought “ok, so now we’re doing this I guess.” And it felt like a different movie had started. I’m not saying all of this is necessarily a terrible thing, or that it completely ruins the movie. I mean, I gave it the score I did for a reason, and what I said in the first few sentences stands. It’s just annoying that I think an even better movie is lurking inside of this one and some adjustment could really make it shine. Still, if you’re up for the 2 hour and 10 minute endeavor of soaking this in, it hits a lot of horror buttons and it hits ’em right.

October 29 - The Wretched

Film: The Wretched

Where to watch: Netflix

Rating: 3/5

I liked it! It didn’t blow me away, but it has decent entertainment value, and I think that’s just fine. It gave me what I wanted but also contained a lot of cool, unexpected bits. This is a rarity for me, but I actually wish this film was a bit longer to allow for some additional fleshing out.

October 30 - Blood Red Sky

Film: Blood Red Sky

Where to watch: Netflix

Rating: 1/5

Not really sure where some of the good ratings I’ve seen for this are coming from. What I will give it is that it goes for a real nasty, old-school kind of vampirism that I like quite a lot. On the other hand, there’s the rest of the movie which is plainly bad. The hijackers are irritating and unconvincing rather than intimidating. The passengers are even more annoying. And the son of our protagonist is one of the most frustrating characters I’ve seen put to film in some time. I would have at least been somewhat on board with certain parts if they weren’t so completely ridiculous yet lacking in joy. If you’re going to throw so much unhinged nonsense into your film, please at least make it fun.

October 31 - V/H/S/99

Film: V/H/S/99

Where to watch: Shudder

Rating: 2.5/5

After watching V/H/S/94 for this list, I was pretty excited and surprised to see 99 pop up on Shudder so soon. It’s only been a year since 94 released. Sadly, that was the better entry to the series, and I have to wonder if the lack of time between releases has anything to do with the drop in quality. Still, I can’t say this was terrible, as far as V/H/S films go. 

It had some segments I really enjoyed, and it pleased me to see that they opted not to hang the anthology on a framework story this time around, since that’s often the weakest part of these films. They instead went for something that was a little goofy, but certainly in line with the V/H/S brand. Anyways, on to the short films. I won’t go too into detail on what I thought of each. Suffice it to say, 2 and 4 were the weakest of the bunch, with creatures that often looked like Spirit Halloween decorations and storylines and characters that were actively grating and devoid of the fun I want from a V/H/S film. The fifth story, To Hell and Back, isn’t particularly great either, but features some cool makeup and a somewhat interesting setup, at least. My second favorite, Shredding, was mostly bolstered by its stylistic elements rather than plot, but it’s always fun seeing someone get their just desserts. Speaking of which, the standout, by far, was Ozzy’s Dungeon. This was the segment I was most excited for, and the one that left me the most entertained. After watching (most of) Kuso, I was interested to see more work from Flying Lotus in the film world. Because even though Kuso wasn’t really my thing – and I wouldn’t recommend it to almost anyone – I appreciated the intent and parts of what was presented in it. I was glad to see some of what intrigued me in Kuso in Ozzy’s Dungeon, and the visuals, music, and effects were fantastic. All-in-all, even though 94 had set the bar slightly higher than normal, I went into this knowing what I was likely to get from V/H/S. It was still mostly the goofy, weird, fun experience I’ve come to expect, it just didn’t hit as hard as its prequel, and it dragged a bit too much during certain segments.

Last Year's List

I attempted to do all of this last year and failed to follow through since I went for it last-minute, so instead of just scrapping what I DID get done, here’s some more movie reviews! 

Possessor

Film: Possessor 

Where to watch: Hulu

Rating: 3/5

If you watch this film, do yourself a favor and seek out the version that is NOT the director’s cut. Normally, I would never make that recommendation, but for this movie, I absolutely insist. I say this because personally I think the director’s cut undermines the movie’s message. Setting that point aside, this movie is a thrilling, twisted, and gut-wrenching experience.

The Vast of Night

Film: The Vast of Night

Where to watch: Prime Video

Rating: 3.5/5

The Vast of Night is a weird little movie. It’s tense, sad, and strange. Its pacing is frenetic and panicked at first, and then suddenly it stops and goes quiet. And overall, I found it really affecting. That said, I don’t know if I can recommend it because I’m fairly certain next to no one I talk to would enjoy it.

Apostle

Film:  Apostle 

Where to watch: Netflix

Rating: 3/5

Apostle has some of my favorite things in it: old god culty stuff, a witch-like creature, revenge, jarring violence. I will say, it’s not scary, nor does it seem like it’s really trying to be, but it is a decent film.

Proxy

Film: Proxy 

Where to watch: Prime Video

Rating: 2/5

Proxy is an absolutely wild ride. At no point during this movie did I know what was going to happen next, literally right up until the end. It has its issues – some questionable acting, an obviously low budget, a second half that drags so much I ended up on my phone more than once – but overall, it’s a surprising, sort of interesting film. If you like to watch basically anything you can get your hands on like me, you’ll probably find something to enjoy in this one.

Excision

Film: Excision

Where to watch: Tubi

Rating: 2.5/5

This movie is fucked up and kind of ridiculous, but also pretty entertaining. At the same time, I wouldn’t recommend this if you’re looking for something scary. If you’re like me, the hardest part of watching this movie will be all the second-hand embarrassment, not fear or tension. It seems to be intent on disturbing and upsetting the viewer rather than frightening us. I will say it’s quite gory throughout, but mostly in a kind of goofy way. At least up until a certain point when the creeping horror of what’s happening sets in.

Maniac

Film: Maniac

Where to watch: Tubi

Rating: 1.5/5

Here’s the thing about this movie, I can’t say it’s bad, it just wasn’t for me. I don’t know what it was about it that I disliked so much, but I did not enjoy watching it at all. I think that may be the point, so perhaps it achieved its intended effect on me, but I’ve left other movies not necessarily having enjoyed them while still taking something away from the experience. That wasn’t the case here. It’s a disturbing, quick movie, and it’s interesting in that it follows the first-person perspective of the killer, but it left me a bit underwhelmed.

Halloween Kills

Film: Halloween Kills

Where to watch: Peacock

Rating: 0/5

This movie, much like the old Halloween sequels, moved quickly from fun to cringey while also committing the sin of taking itself way too seriously. It’s also chock full of so many stupid, unfun, dry death scenes that I zoned out for almost all of them. And let’s not forget the fact that it thinks it’s making some kind of revelatory social commentary. Anyways, did you know that evil dies tonight?

Malignant

Film: Malignant

Where to watch: HBO Max

Rating: 4/5

Let’s just get this out of the way: Malignant will not be for everyone. However, if you love giallos, maybe give it a shot. If you love weird, ridiculous, wild shit, absolutely give it a shot. I’ve been entertained every time I’ve watched it, and if nothing else, it’s a fantastic movie to watch with other people simply to see their reactions. 

The Call

Film: The Call

Where to watch: Netflix

Rating: 4/5

Though it’s considered a thriller and not strictly horror, I think The Call is more than suitable for the Halloween season. I happened across it on Netflix and therefore wasn’t expecting much, but it turned out to be pretty interesting. It has some downfalls, the main one being the CGI, but it wasn’t egregious enough for me not to recommend the film.

The Howling

Film: The Howling

Where to watch: Prime Video

Rating: 3.5/5

This film explores a werewolf dynamic we don’t normally see put to film, contains social commentary that steps outside of the typical werewolf box, and the unsavory elements of the book the film is based on are displayed with great restraint (a credit to Joe Dante). I was also surprised that this movie came out in the 80s because it retains a grit and groundedness that was often scrubbed away as film shifted gears from the 70s to the 80s.

Scary Stories to Tell in the Dark

Film: Scary Stories to Tell
in the Dark

Where to watch: Netflix

Rating: 3/5

I avoided watching this for so long in large part because I have a lot of nostalgia for the books it’s based on and I assumed I would be disappointed. However, this movie did a pretty good job of bringing my favorite parts of the original books to life and threaded those things between a plot I found engaging if a little silly. A lot of films of this type ruin the tension they build near the end when too much starts happening simultaneously and the scenes become action-oriented rather than suspenseful. 

I think, unfortunately, this film fell into that trap a bit and the “Me Tie Doughty Walker” section stopped being creepy and tense and became boring. If I didn’t see another “driving around with a monster on top of the car” scene for 50 years, it would be too fucking soon. Still, the movie immediately gained back some points in the next part, which I won’t spoil. All I’ll say is this movie was a much better watch than I’d anticipated, and though I have my issues with it I had a good time, overall.

The Blackcoat's Daughter

Film: The Blackcoat’s Daughter

Where to watch: Netflix

Rating: 4.5/5

This is one of my favorite horror movies. The performances are incredible across the board, which is very necessary in a slow-burn like The Blackcoat’s Daughter. The tone created by the performance of Kiernan Shipka, in particular, is eerie and tense, and the ending is gut-wrenching. If you can’t handle slower-paced fare, maybe skip this, but otherwise, I wholeheartedly recommend it.

Mandy

Film: Mandy 

Where to watch: Shudder

Rating: 4/5

Mandy is pure, unhinged, unabashed, Cage-y goodness. And while I’ve enjoyed his performance more recently in offerings like Pig – a movie that proves that though he is usually typecast, he can still carry a slower, more heartfelt film as well – I was still thrilled to see him return to form after some other somewhat disappointing film appearances. Mandy is a glorious marriage of the raw power and insanity of a committed Nicolas Cage performance, and the psychedelic stylings of Panos Cosmatos. If you like weird, crazy, trippy movies with a lot of creative violence, Mandy is well-worth a watch.

Beyond the Black Rainbow

Film: Beyond the Black Rainbow

Where to watch: Fubo TV

Rating: 3.5/5

Speaking of Panos Cosmatos, Beyond the Black Rainbow is another of his films which I can only hesitantly endorse. Personally, I was a big fan. It’s unsettling, it has a unique tone and feel, and it’s visually delightful. I recommended this to my mom, who’s also a fan of weird shit, and she disliked it a lot, so I can’t say it’s for everyone. I couldn’t even particularly put my finger on who it’s for, exactly, but at least one person on that list is me.

Starry Eyes

Film: Starry Eyes

Where to watch: Tubi

Rating: 2.5/5

Intensely uncomfortable to watch, start-to-finish. I think if you’re a woman, or have been perceived and treated like a woman, it’s a bit harder to stomach. That being said, I quite liked the ending. The middle bits were kind of what I struggled with. It’s not that I didn’t like them at all, it’s just that normally this sort of story – one in which a woman slowly turns to evil – satisfies me more when she’s not subjected to your standard forms of misogynistic abuse and humiliation. Be warned, there’s a fair bit of that in the film. But it’s a fun watch regardless if you can stomach those scenes.

St. Maud

Film: St. Maud

Where to watch: Prime Video

Rating: 4.5/5

First off, I will give the warning that there is a very short rape scene in this film. Even leaving that scene aside, this movie got under my skin and confronted me in exactly the way I appreciate from a good horror film. I will give my little review of a very similar movie below, but what I think separates this one from that is purely the tone. It only gets more and more grim. If that’s not something you enjoy, it won’t be for you, but if you’re someone who likes challenging, psychological horror, you will enjoy St. Maud.

Censor

Film: Censor 

Where to watch: Hulu

Rating: 3.5/5

As mentioned in the above review of St. Maud, Censor spins a sort of similar yarn. I won’t go into too much detail about the content of either, but even if I were to spoil them, they’re worth the watch for the performances, the storycraft, and if you’re a fan of such things, some of the more jarring, violent moments. I would say Censor is a little more goofy, almost, compared to St. Maud. It never veers fully into schlock, but it gets very close on several occasions, and the ending also toes the line between silly and unsettling. Still, a fun watch and a creepy movie.

One Cut of the Dead

Film: One Cut of the Dead

Where to watch: Shudder

Rating: 4/5

I won’t say too much about this movie aside from this: it’s an absolute delight. I can think of very few flaws, and I won’t even name them because who cares? It’s lighthearted, it’s fun, and it’s short. You couldn’t ask for more in a good comedy horror film, in my opinion.

The Invisible Man

Film: The Invisible Man

Where to watch: Freevee

Rating: 4/5

I’m normally not much of a fan of thrillers, nor of reboots of classic horror movies/monsters, but The Invisible Man is really fantastic. The reimagining of the character is novel, the tension the film builds up is genuinely thrilling, and the ending was everything I wanted.

Off-List Recommendations

Even though I relish being a hater, after so many ugly reviews, I thought I’d end with some unabashed positivity and list a small selection of my favorite horror films. Enjoy!

The Taking of Deborah Logan

Film: The Taking of Deborah
Logan

Where to watch: Prime Video

Rating: 4/5

This movie is a banger, and one which I think deserves more recognition.

Lake Mungo

Film: Lake Mungo

Where to watch: Tubi

Rating: 5/5

Deeply unsettling. One of the best horror films and best found footage films ever made, as far as I’m concerned.

Martyrs (2008)

Film: Martyrs

Where to watch: Tubi

Rating: 4/5

Listen, this is going to sound weird, but this movie used to be a comfort film for me. Like I think I’ve watched it a few dozen times at least because I would go to sleep with it on. Definitely mental health related, so I’m not going to delve into why. I’m also not going to lie and say this is for the faint of heart, and I’m also not going to pretend like a movie in which exclusively young women are tortured is beyond criticism, but I will proclaim that this is a fantastic film, and one I recommend if you’re up to it.

Prey

Film: Prey​

Where to watch: Hulu

Rating: 5/5

What are you even doing if you haven’t watched this yet? It’s fun, surprisingly emotional, lovely, and so deeply satisfying in a number of ways.

Noroi: The Curse

Film: Noroi: The Curse​

Where to watch: Shudder

Rating: 5/5

If you’re a horror fan, odds are you’ve seen this or heard of it. If you haven’t, do yourself a favor and give it a chance. If you aren’t convinced by that simple endorsement, let me also say that though this film is long, it doesn’t waste your time. It’s a wonderfully crafted slow-burn, the kind that reminds me what I love about well executed slow-burns. And if you’ve seen some of the other reviews I’ve written here, I’m sure you know by now that I’m a stickler for movies not overstaying their welcome. 

I love a good mockumentary, I love good found-footage horror, and I love cryptic mysteries told with great care. Noroi is all of these things, and that’s what has made it into such an iconic piece of horror cinema.

Creep (and Creep 2)

Film: Creep and Creep 2

Where to watch: Netflix

Rating: 4/5

I’m always trying to get more people on the Creep train. It’s a very special movie, and one of the few with a sequel that is just as good and possibly even better than the original. This is the kind of horror that will make you uncomfortable more than anything else, but it’s so very good and so very effective.

May

Film: May​

Where to watch: Tubi/Shudder

Rating: 4/5

I wanted to throw a little curveball in here because horror comes in a lot of different shapes, flavors, essences… etc. but I often stay in my favored lanes; I love the gory and the supernatural. But I think it’s worth exploring some films in the genre that aren’t precisely what most people think of when they imagine horror. May is one of my favorite movies in that vein. It has such strong intention and characterization, and – without giving much away – the ending does not merely shock or disgust or terrify, it touches your soul. I hope that intrigues you enough to watch this movie, because it’s a truly affecting piece of cinema.

Halloween Ends (SPOILERS AHEAD)

I wanted to give a more thorough review of Halloween Ends because realistically, it’s one of the bigger, more notable releases on this list, and I did have quite a few thoughts on it. Firstly, many reviewers were not, but I was completely on-board with the main plot of this movie. Especially because, going into it, I had steeled myself for yet another endless, boring Michael killing spree. Weirdly, I feel like most reviewers have complained about the same thing in the past, yet when the creators give us something different, it’s also a problem? I don’t know what the fuck those folks want, but personally, I wanted this. I wanted a story that explored a different aspect of the Michael Meyers legacy without following the same structure of every single other Halloween movie. I wanted a story that brought back some of the psychological elements of the original while also adding something fresh to the mix. I wanted the story of Laurie Strode to reach its conclusion, one way or another… Actually, strictly speaking, none of that is 100% true. What I really wanted was this entire series put to bed after the fun little schlock-fest that was Halloween 3, and for Halloween 2 to be burned from our collective memory. And then I wanted it put to bed a second time after Halloween (2018). But if we we had to have a sequel (and we did, because of money), this is what I wanted from it. I liked the concept of someone else taking on the Meyers mantle, un-subtle though its execution may have been. I enjoyed watching this kid enact his gruesome vengeance and slowly become the next personification of evil, and if they had taken that course and run with it, starting a whole new saga, I wouldn’t have been too angry about it even if I’m dying for them to incinerate the rancid corpse that this franchise has become. But of course, we can’t have nice things, and the point where the movie broke down and disappointed me was when they rehashed the Laurie vs. Michael fight AGAIN. How many times must we see this? I enjoyed it more the first time, in Halloween (2018). But ok, fine, we have to do this in every single one of these fucking things so whatever. At the very least, they had the courtesy to make it really funny. Laurie essentially crucifies Michael on her kitchen island, then leans the fridge on his leg. She of course takes her time knifing him properly, so he unskewers one of his hands by just rippin’ right through it (lol), then chokes her out one last time. He almost gets her, too, mostly because she’s finally had enough and starts to give in, but then her granddaughter shows up and snaps his fucking arm like a twig. At which point I was howling with laughter. Finally, Laurie slits his wrist. Fin. Then came an even funnier scene. The cops show up, and they tie Micheal’s body to the top of a car. There’s a moment where you can hear some of the background officers going like “hey, this isn’t how we do things guys, come on.” But the sherriff shows up and says “tonight it is,” or something like that, and I giggled. The cursory attention given to standard procedure was quite funny to me, though I don’t think it’s intended to be as laughable as it is. I like that they give that nod and then go, “yeah, we really mean the Ends part of Halloween Ends. This mf is going in the shredder.” I was grinning throughout the sequence, because they’re finally doing what no horror movie dummies ever get to do: truly destroy the boogeyman. And destroy him they do. The townsfolk of Haddonfield all come out in force to crowd-surf Michael’s body to the industrial grinder and then part like the Red Sea to allow Laurie her final goodbye. We get a blood-explosion shot of Mikey’s body getting ate up, and it’s over, just like that. It had me kicking my feet like a child because man is it trying to be serious, but it’s just entertainingly goofy. That’s why I really can’t be mad at this film even with this tacked on bullshit at the end. I enjoyed the main story, I laughed at the end, and I sighed with relief that I won’t be seeing another one of these goddamn things for at least a few years. So I hope, anyways. I don’t know if I can bring myself to watch another one if they do bring it back. As much as I enjoy that John Carpenter is forever getting run his money off the back of this series, as I mentioned earlier, I would like for it to die. Its ability to induce fear has long since faded due in part to the original run of sequels, whose premises became more and more absurd, consequently making Michael less and less scary. And in part due to the multiple resurrections it has now endured. From Robb Zombie’s films, the first of which was so terrible, they turned the lights on in the theater I was watching it in so we could all laugh and talk more easily since we were already getting rowdy less than an hour in. To this new trilogy, which had some decent entries – this and Halloween – and one of the worst sequels to anything I’ve ever seen – Halloween Kills. I truly hope this property finally gets to rest in tiny, ground up pieces much like Michael’s old, fucked up sewer body. Did I mention he lived in the sewer in this one? Yeah. Maybe they’ll add a nasty sewer mask skin for him in DBD. I’d enjoy that.

Abbie reviews House of the Dragon: Episode One

Welp, I ended up watching House of the Dragon, as I knew I was going to eventually. I’m not physically able to stop myself from watching a show about dragon riders. I just finished episode one and I can already tell this will be a bit of a hate-watch for me.

Disclaimers: This post is NOT SPOILER FREE for episode one, and also includes vague guesses for the future based on having read the book. If you want to watch House of the Dragon without knowing anything and haven’t watched the pilot – turn back now! 

I have read the section of Fire and Blood this show is based on – but it was so long ago I only remember the broadest strokes. Any predictions I make here are based on half-remembered snapshots – so bear that in mind. 

The Good

Before I get started, I want to state for the record that there are absolutely enjoyable elements that may make this thing worth the watch in the long run. It’s fun to see the Dragon Royals at the height of their power and with the maximum number of fire-breathing WOMDs/beloved pets they will ever have. 

The cast is strong too. The performances are generally good from everyone in it but I want to single out Matt Smith. He is so good at sinking into a role, and manages to bring a level of charisma to Daemon Targaryen that makes him bearable to watch, instead of lazily sinking to Ramsey Bolton levels of villainous caricature.  

Rhaenyra is a character I am looking forward to following. An intelligent, funny, bold young woman who begins the show with complex, but ultimately loving relationships with her family and friends that, as this is a tragedy, will ultimately sour. I’m a sucker for stories where people who love each other end up on opposite sides. I especially adore this when it’s part of the relationship between our protagonist and the most likely villain – her uncle Daemon. They seem to have a relatively warm familial relationship to start, and their struggle against each other for the throne will probably end in ruin for them both.

Depending on how bold they want to go, there are possibilities for queer storytelling on this show. Rhaenyra and her girlhood best friend Alicent have a very close bond and I’ll be happy either for a Friends to Lovers to Enemies story for them, or a Best Friends to Enemies story. I also half-remember it being implied in the book that Rhaenyra’s (post-timeskip) husband is gay and she falls in love with his sister while ALSO having an affair with another man on the side – fun!  

Those are the high points for me. Now, on to why this is still going to be a hate-watch, in all likelihood. 

The Bad

I loathe that this show is focused around the potential for a woman to sit on the throne, when we already know she won’t – because they say on Game of Thrones that no woman has ever done so. So we know Rhaenyra fails already. And we know that even her distant relative, Daenerys, will also fail in about a century and a half. No woman (presumably – I doubt we’ll get any trans monarchs referenced on this show) has ever sat on the Iron Throne and none ever will (with the exception of Cercei, but it’s almost worse that the only woman ever to rule Westeros in her own right was a monster), so the discussions of who Viserys’s successor in this show should be already feel pointless. It might not be Daemon, but it will inevitably be a man.  

But first, let’s torture some women! The showrunners have proudly stated that a major theme will be the struggles of women living in a patriarchal, medieval style society that would rather burn the country to the ground than be ruled by a woman. This bums me out for two major reasons. 

The first one is: we again know from seeing women characters in Game of Thrones struggle with a lot of the same issues that NOTHING is going to change. The women of House of the Dragon will suffer and struggle and strive to make a change and…fail. 

The second is: this show is already an example of why stories focused on a particular type of oppression or social struggle aren’t best told by people who aren’t members of the group they’re writing about. There are so many elements of this show that already irritate me knowing that the showrunners, cisgender men Miguel Sapochnik and Ryan Condal, wrote at least the first two episodes (Condal), directed the pilot (Sapochnik), and are in charge of where this story will go in general.

For example: this first episode features a pregnant person being forcibly given a C-section without anesthesia while she cries “no, no, stop” and then just screams in agony until she dies from blood loss. They made a big deal of Aemma saying that childbirth is a woman’s battlefield, and tried to juxtapose it with a jousting tournament to drive that point home, but the part of her labor they used was the part she did not consent to. That wasn’t her battlefield or her tournament or her shot at glory – that was her being murdered by her husband as he lovingly strokes her hair and tells her not to be afraid while his servants cut her open to yank out the baby, who dies a couple minutes after his birth anyway. 

You can just tell that Sapochnik and Condal thought they were real geniuses here, and I hate it. The battlefield metaphor might have worked, if Aemma had been given the opportunity to choose this procedure. But instead no one asks her what she wants to do or even tells her what’s about to happen to her because how would we have a ReaLisTIC stORy about doing a sexism if we gave the women in it any agency!? A classic conundrum. 

I find all of this deeply frustrating, and I wish that HBO had greenlit a different GoT tie-in project, or hired at least (1) one person to run it who isn’t a cis man and has any idea of what living under the yoke of misogyny is like if they were so excited to produce a show where that’s a central theme. I hope I’m wrong about where I think this is going, but franchise prequels usually have to stick to the previously established history of the story we’ve seen before, so I doubt it. 

The Upshot

They may find surprising moments to prove me wrong in smaller ways – and in the meantime there are plenty of dragons to keep me happy. I will continue to walk this tightrope of hope and loathing for another episode. 

Moments I loved: Dragons, dragons everywhere! With promises of more! That opening scene where Rhaenyra soars high above King’s Landing on her dragon Syrax brought a couple tears to my eye – that was literally my fondest adolescent daydream. Loved Daemon introducing his girlfriend to his dragon as well before flying away, that was fun.

Princess Rhaenys, the Queen that Never Was, and her husband Lord Corlys are a hot couple. Looking forward to learning more about them.  

Rhaenyra’s tense, bitter conversation with Daemon at the funeral. I can’t really explain what I liked about it – it was just a moment I enjoyed.  

Moments that made me roll my eyes: Daemon sending in his Goldcloaks to randomly grab people out of a crowd and maim them lmao what the actual fuck is happening? I get it, he’s a violent, chaotic man but they give us no real context for what he or his men even thought they were doing there.  

Alicent being sent by her father to comfort a bereaved Viserys. Why? Are they implying she sleeps with him? Or is she just going to sit there with her book and say “I’m sorry?” It has not been established that King V. has a taste for teen girls, or that he has any affection or regard for Alicent in particular so this was confusing. If she’s supposed to sleep with him why is Hightower sending Viserys his VIRGIN NOBLE DAUGHTER, instead of hiring a sex worker?! He doesn’t appear to have Tywin Lannisterish scruples about brothels, and neither does the king! Makes no sense. 

Viserys telling Rhaenyra about “The Song of Ice and Fire”. Such unnecessary and very silly foreshadowing for a story we’ve already been told on a show that won’t include any of the White Walker stuff, unless they drastically alter the history of this world. 

On to episode two! Might make this a series.

The crew has a jaunty debate about naming their new ship and despite recent successes, find themselves dumpster diving.

Book One: Live life the Edge Corp way – punch the clock, keep your head down, collect your pay. This is the day-to-day reality of working stiffs in a rough galaxy. But when the crew of the cargo ship Calamity fails to catch break after break, their lives are turned upside down. Bad cargo, spiraling debt, and a woman’s life on the line – all with the Golden League crime syndicate breathing down their necks – it’s no surprise that these blue-collar folks get desperate enough to take ANY job. Can’t let danger, or moral compromises, get in the way of their bonus checks.

Book One: Live life the Edge Corp way – punch the clock, keep your head down, collect your pay. This is the day-to-day reality of working stiffs in a rough galaxy.

Abraxas Hillrunner

Much of his childhood was spent in the Lands of the Linnorm Kings. Therefore, he was more than thrilled when he heard and answered the call to serve the natural world. Since then he has traveled far from his homeland and his beloved family.

Abraxas revels in travel and exploration. Because of his upbringing, he is most at home in the hills and mountainous terrain. He is also comfortable with the cold. He spends much of his time in the wilderness, and that is the way he likes it. He is easy going and inquisitive; useful traits for a traveler. His calling keeps him primarily in the wilds. He can be quite the fish out of water on the rare visit to “civilization.”

Alignment Statement:

“When nature calls, I reply. When nature speaks, I listen. And when nature angers, I destroy.” (Paizo Publishing, Call of the Wild)

Values:

Duty
His sacred duty is to serve nature. He has been called by the natural forces of Golarion. They are worthy of attention and respect. His oath to it must come first. When not in conflict with his sacred duty, he holds the wisdom of the law of the pack.

Adventure
His ancestors traveled the entire span of the Kodar mountain. Travel is in his blood. He delights in discovery and adventure.

Life
All things exist in balance. As the sun rises, so too it must set. He eats the flesh of his prey as he in turn will be devoured. Magic is the gift of his devotion; he will use it to harm or heal. The undead are an affront to nature and must be destroyed or laid to rest.

Bonds:

  • Guile, Innovation, and Intrigue. Pippa can enchant without the virtue of magic. How wonderful would it be to gracefully dance around the truth and fiction?
  • Getting to know you. Pippa is in my heart. In battle, we are in sync. When I move, she moves, we move. Out of combat, we laugh, cry, and endure. I have walked within her inner sanctum. But, I did spend our early travels thinking she was a princess. I speak the language of the fey and the air itself. Buwan spoke in her native tongue. Why the twinge of jealousy? There is much about my life I have not shared, by now I know revealing her true self is not part of her natural rhythm. I want to know and accept her true form as she has seen mine.
  • Andromeda is a child of balance. She drinks deeply from a wellspring of mysterious power. Its waters, alight with life on the surface and a strange hollowness at its deepest depths. Her footsteps are timid as a doe, her fangs know the endless hunger of a wolf. Andromeda is a child of imbalance. A light sip of the wellspring sends her to the bottomless depths, gasping for air. I will stand by her side whether she wanes or waxes.
  • The moon is a mixed blessing to my people. It provides light for the hunt, it grants us power in all our forms. It also empowers the bitter sting of silver and drives those we bite into madness. This Herald seems different from the Irresseni I have encountered. Will they prove a mixed blessing?
  • Hypocrisy. I have become the angry intolerant horde. The Herald has done nothing to earn my animosity. When we are threatened, he fights and bleeds with us. When we are confused, he offers insight and guidance. I must make more of an effort to keep my prejudices in check.
  • Legacy of the Moon. I learned much from The Herald in the brief time they chose to walk alongside this dangerous path. The first of which is to trust. I became the angry intolerant horde that I feared as a pup. I will endeavor to reach out to potential allies with hand outstretched not claws.
  • Legacy of the Void. Andromeda was an unexpected balm for my weary soul, heavy with grief. It fills me with peace that she is able to rest, if even for a moment. I have been a student for many years, Andromeda taught me I can be a teacher as well.
  • She has Risen. It seems like a lifetime ago since I stared at that empty room. I still see it from time to time when I close my eyes. Now they stand before me once more. My friend, my mentor. Do we pick up where we left off? What has changed? What remains the same. I am both thrilled and terrified.
  • Byani. Wow.? Period.

Personal Bond:

“Is Abraxas a man that turns into a wolf or a wolf that turns into a man? Is he man or beast? His experience with his new pack has made him realize that he is both man and beast. He will continue to learn how to talk and fight like a human. He will continue to howl at the moon and chase rabbits. He will revel in the power of his hybrid form.”

The weapons of man are versatile and ingenious. My hammer can break the jaws of my foes and my shield moves on it’s own to intercept any arrow or bolt heading my way. My pelt can soften the blows of most enemies, but dragonscale takes the bite out of even the axes of frost giants. But I am also a wolf. I cannot be the lone wall against our numerous aggressors. I am a pack hunter, I will stand alongside my pack in victory and defeat.

Retired Bonds:

  • I came into this world possessing destructive powers. One bite could transform a pacifist into a bloodthirsty creature. The strength I draw from the natural world can create a mist or unleash a maelstrom. Pippa’s enchanting and destructive powers are growing. She did not have the mentors I now see I was fortunate to have, she cannot hear the encouraging whispers of the frost, the wisdom of the mountains. I hope I can provide her the confidence and courage to dance in the tempest and embrace her own claws and fangs.
  • The moon is a mixed blessing to my people. It provides light for the hunt, it grants us power in all our forms. It also empowers the bitter sting of silver and drives those we bite into madness. This Herald seems different from the Irresseni I have encountered. Will they prove a mixed blessing?
  • Is Andromeda a witch in sheep’s clothing or yet another victim of Irrisen’s wickedness. Best keep her close and find out. One way or another my curiosity or hunger will be sated.
  • Fang, fur, and the elements have served me on my travels. I may have to adapt to ensure Pippa and I can weather any menace.
  • Pippa can harness powerful arcane forces. My hope is she balances its protective and destructive potential.
  • Some darkness or sorrow wounded Odessa early in life; I will make sure she knows she is safe in the pack.
  • Since Menet joins me in the den (i.e., embraces my natural spirit), I will endevour to join her in the temple (i.e., embrace her spiritual nature).
  • Odessa saved my life at the lighthouse; I will preserve her life. – Resolved
  • Odessa’s eyes can find both beauty and the perfect spot to aim for; she may become a trusted ally – Resolved
  • Odessa can talk to anyone; I have much to learn from her.
  • Pippa can talk to anyone; I have much to learn from her. – Resolved
  • Pippa knows that you don’t need a title or badge to dispense frontier justice; she may become a trusted ally. – Resolved
  • Pippa could have met a watery end; I will help her survive the dangers of wilds. – Resolved

Diversity of race, culture, gender, sexual expression, neurochemistry, and others leads to better gaming experiences and more specific, exciting stories. 
As we celebrate Pride, we want to reflect a little on what having this avenue for expressing our queerness (and allyship) has meant to all of us in our tabletop gaming experiences. It’s been fun, it’s been transformative, it’s been a refuge, and it’s important to us to be able to share this space we’ve created for ourselves with all of you. 

Host reflections

LOGAN:

Before it was put on hold by the pandemic, I was the Dungeon Master for an in-person group of teenagers who had mixed levels of experience in tabletop gaming. The group included diverse ethnicities: Hmong, Latinx, Mixed-Race. It included a variety of genders and social-economic backgrounds. But what stood out to me was one player in particular.

As the group began to create their characters as we prepared for the upcoming campaign, one player excitedly told me all about the character they were creating. It focused at first on the standard tidbits: class, background, what cool abilities they wanted their arrakocra to be able to do.

But then they asked me this: “Is it ok for my character to be gay?”.

Being a happily married gay man, I enthusiastically told them yes. A few minutes later, they said to me that all of the characters they’ve played before had been gay. I responded that all of mine have been queer in some way. A few minutes later, they came out to me, and I proudly smiled at them. At that moment, the shell they had constructed dissolved. I recognized it because it was the same shell I used to wear when I was their age.

I can’t imagine how scared they may have been to even ask that first question. They weren’t even my student at the time, so they didn’t know me very well. They didn’t know how open I would be to their question. They didn’t know how I am dedicated to diversity and safe spaces and that I would welcome them with open arms. So they took a chance, and it paid off beautifully. They went on to hit on every male we encountered in the campaign, and their fellow players assisted in being wingmen and wingwomen when they could.

If they were rejected by a different Dungeon Master or by their fellow players, I wonder if they would’ve wanted to continue gaming. All I know is that their story as part of the TTRPG community would have been gone and unable to be experienced and enjoyed by others. And that would’ve been a shame. By embracing diversity, we uplift all. We grow. We thrive.

I want to get this clear. Framing the tabletop gaming experience in terms of how inclusive it can be regarding the diversity of its players and the stories that they tell and allowing these experiences to be played in a safe space is not pandering. If you feel the need to restrict diverse gaming, be it consciously or unconsciously, you are gatekeeping, and you are a part of the problem.

TTRPGs are inherently collaborative. I have found so much queer joy in these games. I, my friends, and my students have all found a queer haven in these experiences. I’m proud to be gay and to be a part of the queer community. Why wouldn’t I roleplay that?

Jess

Positive representation matters. Seeing positive representation of the trans experience in college literally saved my life. Until I met the trans professor for my freshman year seminar, who showed me that being trans could be freeing and beautiful, I was lost, terrified, and filled with self-hatred. 

So many moments in media and in life instilled these feelings in me. Seeing Jim Carrey showering while sobbing and brushing his teeth with an entire tube of toothpaste after kissing a trans woman in an Ace Ventura movie. When the villain in Dude, Where’s My Car? (whose name I sadly can’t remember) reveals a bulge in her underwear, and one of the main characters visibly retches. Not to mention the slew of transphobic jokes slung around in The 40-Year-Old Virgin after a transgender sex worker is hired for the titular virgin. Or, in the more current and supposedly more “progressive” film, Deadpool, when Wade off-handedly jokes that a very buff, very strong woman must have a penis due to those other aforementioned traits. These depictions of transness and gender essentialist ideas terrified me, made me swallow down any sense of kinship I had with trans characters so that I could hide from the ridicule and hatred I knew would come with it. And those are just moments I can remember off the top of my head – there have been so many more.

What gave me the freedom to see and understand who I was was a single person representing the experience in a positive light. And that’s why diversity in gaming – and every other format, really – is so important. I want depictions of transness and queerness (along with other marginalized identities) that give people hope. We’ve had enough of the grimdark, “realistic” portrayals – we’ve lived the experiences those portrayals broadcast. It’s time for gaming, movies, television, books, and everything else to paint another picture. My picture happens to be of tons of queer folks doing cool magic shit and destroying evil. What will yours be?

Gaming is often about more than telling a great story – it’s about getting to live out a power fantasy and an experimental version of yourself. This can be really vulnerable and exciting, getting to try on and try out different aspects of our potential identities in low-stakes, low-commitment environments.

It’s hard to know what to portray, though, or what the possibilities for yourself and others might be without multiple examples laid out for you in the media you consume. Representation in film, books, tv, video games, podcasts, and your buddies you sit down to play tabletop games with is crucial to discovering different potential identities. How can you fully know who you are without being aware of all the possibilities?

Speaking from my own experience, I never considered the possibility that I was bi or ace-spec until I encountered more nuanced versions of these concepts in my gaming content and podcasts I was listening to. You have to love compulsive heterosexuality – because since I liked men, I thought I couldn’t possibly be queer. Even though I have also wanted to make out with girls my whole life, I thought they were pretty and wrote some pretty dramatic sapphic fiction as a teenager – I thought every straight girl also did that. I also thought every AFAB person just took a while to “warm-up” to a sexual partner. It took reading a few books, getting bisexual and ace representation in shows I liked and just meeting other queer people to make me reconsider my own experience with attraction. My life and understanding of myself have become vastly richer with that exposure, and I’m so grateful for it.

Something else I’ve been musing on with regards to my own experience is that as a bisexual woman who was only able to fully recognize and embrace that aspect of my identity as an adult in my late twenties who had only ever dated men, met one she liked, and entered a monogamous partnership with him – I’ve never really gotten the opportunity to date girls, or to be bisexual in a way that is immediately apparent. I’m so grateful to have found the FWP crew to play with because I feel like I finally have the space to explore that part of myself and a community that not only embraces that part of me but centers it.

Embracing diversity in tabletop games allows us to explore different aspects of ourselves. That might manifest as our desire to explore what being an ancient elven mage might be like – but I’m also talking about if you want to explore what being a non-binary ancient elven mage might be like, or a pansexual barbarian, or even just a new name for yourself – you need a table full of people who understand and embrace your characters, and more importantly you, in all your infinite variety. If those people aren’t available to you (for whatever reason), you need representation in the games you listen to. It’s something we try to incorporate into the universes we create with each other, and it’s imperative to all of us and, we hope, to you.

I recently purchased My Time at Portia. As usual, I spent a good portion of time in the character creation area. I was selecting the exact shade of green I wanted for the hair when my boyfriend commented, “you making another dark character?” He didn’t say it in a snarky way. We play a lot of video games together. Over the years, he noticed I would create my characters, if the game allows customization, with super golden brown skin or the equivalent. 

As he commented, I smiled and thought back to a recent conversation with the FWP crew. I shared how each of my TTRP characters contained an element of me. Part of it is to live vicariously through their adventures. The other part is growing up I felt there weren’t enough shows and games made just for me. As a gaymer and co-host with some awesomesauce queer folk and allies, I proudly get to nerd out with a diverse group who brings their amazing personalities and backgrounds to create a truly fantastic experience. 

It tickles me pink to think that our stories and experiences, joined with other incredible queer podcasts, games, books, and movies, encourage others to embrace themselves. I know my younger self definitely would have benefited from the diverse and supporting gaming voices. I sincerely appreciate all of you who wave your respective flags and create safe places for gamers of all ages and backgrounds to play and tell their stories. Besitos!

Diversity is a part of what I think makes Fantastic Worlds unique; we might not be the most famous actual play podcast out there, but we believe that it is helping to put good into the world.

Last year when we received our licensing partnership with Paizo, it was a big deal for us and representative of a lot of hard work. However, when the press release went out, most of these sites chose to cut out the part about our group diversity. Representation matters; It is not something that should be just cut on a whim to save space, or in some cases, because you are afraid of making waves with someone intolerant.

Our contribution to equality is small, but much like Mariposa, we are fierce. It is also that quality that we will always choose to represent who we are rather than hide in the shadows. It just drives us to work harder.

Diversity makes the world fantastic, don’t ever let anyone convince you otherwise. To me, worlds can be an infinite number of sizes. It can be your world of friendships, the world of your career, the world of your community, and it especially means the fantastic worlds we explore in tabletop gaming.

I encourage anyone who reads this, look at the groups you play with and ask this question. Is there someone with a different background than my own that I can invite to my group? Have I created a space that works towards making everyone feel welcomed, encouraged, and appreciated? Am I celebrating differences in flavor and playstyle and encouraging it?

Be prepared to listen, be ready to have your thoughts and ideas changed, and, most of all, be ready to grow. Nothing wrong with learning and understanding.

“Are you a boy or a girl?” This innocuous phrase asked by Professor Rowan at the beginning of Pokemon Diamond rankled me in high school because I couldn’t answer it. Not honestly at least. But that’s been so much of my life. Being dishonest with myself and with others, lying about who I was, pretending to be my parents’ perfect son. I didn’t feel like a son, and I didn’t feel like a daughter because of my upbringing. So, “Are you a boy or a girl?” I always wanted to choose a girl, so I gave it a shot, and I named her Lily. Ultimately this didn’t change how I related to the world, but it opened up an opportunity to start exploring my gender with a very simple question.

Since then, any chance I’ve had to choose or create a character, the first character I create is always a woman. It was a way for me to explore my identity, pretend to be someone I wanted to be, but I felt like I was out of my reach. Playing a girl in MMOs gave me a chance to interact without wearing the mask of masculinity I had been wearing my whole life. Then coming across more and more beautiful transgender characters in games made me wonder: ‘Is this something I could do for myself?’

For me, diversity in gaming has been about normalizing differences and offering underrepresented people the opportunity to feel like the hero or the story. It’s about having those people tell their stories that white, cisgender, straight people lack the experience because of being part of the majority group. It’s about being willing to ask questions and listen to the answers. So tell me, “Are you a boy, a girl, or other?

KELSEY

I remember my best friend going away for summer vacation when I was 13 or so. I missed her a ton, so I bought her a card to give to her when she got back, and my sister saw this and decided to tease me and tell me that I was a lesbian and had a crush on my best friend. I was mortified and honestly a little confused. I DID love her. A lot! Was I a lesbian?

It being the early 2000s (and me being a very insecure teenager), I freaked out, ripped up the card, and decided to never tell my friend. Which is so funny because just four years later, we would openly sing songs about being lesbians. While we never ended up together as a couple, we were damn cute and didn’t care what anyone else thought, because first off–there’s nothing wrong with being lesbians! Secondly, for me anyway, love and attraction are really fluid.

Time can quickly change how we perceive cultural norms. It has been exhilarating growing up and experiencing this shift in queer acceptance and positivity. When someone uses the word “gay” as a descriptor nowadays, I automatically assume the best because fuck yeah! That’s gay as hell, and we are HERE. FOR. IT! That wasn’t always the case.

This outward acceptance–Pride flags, events, rainbow paraphernalia–is relatively new and isn’t common. It’s a very Western concept, and not everyone has the privilege of coming out and having a safe space to do so. The first “Pride parades” were riots (as recent as 1969, mind you) because of a horribly anti-gay legal system, and people couldn’t be open without being arrested, or fuck–even killed. It’s always an important reminder that we have black trans women to thank for SO MUCH.

Pride month absolutely makes my heart soar with happiness that so many people feel liberated to be their most genuine, authentic selves. Love is powerful and vast and complicated, and no one should be shamed for it. Life is way too short to suppress your beautiful self to make others around you comfortable (and if they need that, how boring and sad for them). Diversity is so important, and I’m lucky to be a part of a podcasting community that values it.

Pippa Locksley

Pippa Locksley was born the youngest daughter of two innkeepers in Northern Taldor. She’s 35 years old and the “mom” friend. She isn’t overly fond of camping, but loves to travel. She’s a bit vain, very prideful and curious to a fault. She’s more of a con artist than a traditional thief –  she swindles the hell out of most nobles and rich folks she encounters. If there’s something she really wants though, she’ll find a way to get it!

More importantly, Pippa’s a bit of a do-gooder and often involves herself in trouble in the towns she and her companions visit out of a sense of frontier justice and a distrust that nobles will actually protect the people under their rule.

Alignment Statement:

Most laws exist to protect and enforce the status of those in power, and breaking them in the service of regular people or mine and my companions comfort (preferably both) is the right thing to do.

Values:

  1. Pippa protects her own above all others. From her informants to her landlady in her townhouse in the capital city to her butler to the guy who fences her “repatriated” artifacts she takes an interest in their lives and troubles.
  2. Pippa is prideful. She knows she’s worth about 10 of any mark or enemy she comes across.
  3. She believes in eye for an eye justice, and if someone has been wronged in her view she will extract exact punishment
  4. Sorcerers and wizards are Trouble, and should be given a wide berth. However, magic is wondrous and fascinating and strange.
  5. If she can’t do something smart, Pippa will do something right

Bonds:

  • Menet has returned – and Andromeda has taken her place in the gem. I am overJOYED to see her again, to know that she lives and that Odessa likewise is unharmed, and continuing a journey of her own. So much has happened to Abraxas and me in the past few weeks, and in that time Menet has spent a year in this other place fighting a war, an experience that had to have left its own marks upon her – which I should be sensitive to. There is some awkwardness there that it will take time to navigate as we get to know each other again and recover our old camaraderie if we can. 
  • I must remember that in this environment and when dealing with magic, Abraxas knows far more than I, and this both comforts and frightens me – should I reveal the expansion of my inner room? 
  • The…creature…, ah, Argentea – has been helpful delivering spells on my behalf, helping me scout ahead where my eyes do not see, and taking blows for us that would have otherwise been fatal. She…(they?)…seem only to want my favor and a kind word in return. I should speak with her more, and discover what she likes. 
  • I have struck a bargain with a witch, and I’m terrified of Abraxas finding out. 
  • I must remember that in this environment and when dealing with magic, Abraxas knows far more than I, and I must let him lead and teach me.
  • Abraxas has been so kind to me, allowing me to ride him when I can’t keep up and bolstering me in times of fear. I must think of something I can do to show him how much I appreciate his friendship – perhaps a giant pile of exotic meats?
  • The source of Andromeda’s powers has finally been revealed, and we are going to do what we can to sever her relationship with this eldritch nightmare. Perhaps even more difficult will be helping this poor kid recover from the emotional trauma and isolation growing up like this has caused.
  • The source of Andromeda’s powers has finally been revealed, and we are going to do what we can to sever her relationship with this eldritch nightmare. Perhaps even more difficult will be helping this poor kid recover from the emotional trauma and isolation growing up like this has caused.
  • Andromeda is now inside the gem on Menet’s shoulder – I hope that this means she’s able to find some peace, to heal somewhat from the influence her patron has had on her life, and her first real experience with the grief of losing a friend. Buwan was really the one who would have been able to help her best, but in his absence, I must discover what I can do when she feels ready to return to us.  
  • Trust is a choice you make, as I learned with Buwan in the short two weeks we knew him. He is gone, and I intend to carry the lessons I learned from him forward with this new companion on our quest, Bayani, and welcome him to our party as warmly. 
  • I was just getting to know Jaromir/Buwan, after being so suspicious for so long, and then he died protecting us. I don’t know what to do with this guilt – as I told Andromeda, this will likely never go away as I mourn his death and my conduct towards him. I remember his stories about his grandmother, and vow to thwart her in every way possible, should we meet, and kill her if I can – in Buwan’s name. 
  • Bayani is a quite disarming fellow, lots of muscles, charmingly guileless, a little witless too. But can he pack the punch we need as we face increasingly powerful foes? I should be prepared to ward him if necessary or redirect him from bad tactical ideas. 
  •  

Personal Bond

I accepted a bargain with Maryusa to restore my powers and grant me a new gift. This led to me being able to save the lives of my companions when we were at our weakest and accomplish the vendetta I took on behalf of the people of Waldsby. I know there will be consequences but I can’t bring myself to regret it. Should I continue to explore the room to accomplish my other vendettas?

Retired Bonds

  • Buwan is clearly exactly the style of friend that I used to covet – monied, well-read, with excellent manners, and clearly well connected. I look forward to opportunities to enjoy the finer things (where they can be found) with him.
  • Andromeda is powerful in combat but HELPLESS in most other situations and I’m not sure I trust her judgment. HOW did she get wrapped up in this – I must know and she is frustratingly vague about it. 
  • Abraxas and I may be the only two left of our original party, but we cannot dwell on such things if we are to make it out of this place alive. In addition, he has taken on much of the frontline fighting, channeling Menet’s memory and her spirit in the doing. I continue to find new depths of respect for his courage, and will throw myself into making it count with equal ferocity. 
  • This hut is not fit for living in as nonevil ancient hags. Some improvements must be made.
  • Odessa and Menet – it’s hard to believe we only knew each other a short time, but bonds formed in blood and duty do not fade easily. If I survive this, I will not rest until I’ve discovered what happened to you and try to bring you home.
  • Is Buwan a mark or a partner? Friend or foe? Can he be trusted with our mission and with the lives of my companions? I’m going to watch him carefully until he does something to prove he can be trusted, geas, or no. 
  • Buwan’s connections are based in Irrisen, and he mentioned he has “worked with” Halflings in the past, a situation that would be very odd indeed in Irrisen from what I know of my mother’s time here and the reactions I’ve gotten from the locals. I need to find out more about where he comes from, and why he was in Whitethrone.
  •  
  • Andromeda is someone else whose powers just appeared, who also is spoken to by mysterious other beings. Perhaps we can offer each other support in this area.
  • This hut is not fit for living in as non evil ancient hags. Some improvements must be made.
  • I have acquired a cat with my face. I am attempting to be in deep denial about this, but at the same time I know I should utilize her and learn how she can further our quest.
  • Of the original four of us who set out on the quest, Abraxas and I are the only ones who remain. We’re both feeling their loss keenly I know, and I’m afraid to let him out of my sight. 
  • Odessa proved herself a trustworthy ally and a good friend to me when she helped me out of a rough spot a few weeks ago. I want to prove myself and equally trustworthy friend to her as we continue to travel together.
  • I’m really, really, REALLY curious about Odessa’s “gun”. I want her to let me fire it. Just once.
  • Abraxas is a fascinating combination of ferocity and guilelessness that I find precious and worth protecting. I want to teach him about my world, but not let it touch him too much.
  • I want to learn as much about him and his homeland as possible. I have always been fascinated by the wild north, and have never met a druid – I must know everything! – Resolved
  • Abraxas has told me much about his homeland in our weeks of travel together and now we are heading there. Something that fills me with both wonder and terror. I must remember that in this environment Abraxas knows more than I do and I have to let him lead and teach me now.
  • Menet is like a character out of one of my mother’s stories! Strong, noble, open and brave – having her come with us makes me feel more able to come out of this adventure alive. She gives away money like it doesn’t matter and will bankrupt us quickly if I don’t keep an eye on it.
  • Menet charged ahead of the party toward the sound of screams, which is a noble reaction, but a highly impractical one. I fear that one day she will either walk into a trap with no one able to reach her in time, or that she will give away our position at the wrong moment.
  • Odessa has been struggling all this time with her addiction, and I was too blinded with my own ambitions to see the truth. I must try to be a better friend to her, and help her lance this wound at the core of her heart.
  • My faith and own experience tells me that solace and blissful distraction can often be found in a night of passion with a beautiful lover – a sentiment I know Odessa shares. I should wingwoman her if we get an opportunity at a tavern where we aren’t being attacked by the proprietors.
  • I hope that while spending time in Abraxas’s presence and observing and speaking with him I can learn to accept and better control these changes to my nature, and the possibility of wilder heritage than I had thought.
  • Menet gives away money like it doesn’t matter and will bankrupt us quickly if I don’t keep an eye on it.
  • Menet is brave and true and good, and does nothing without cause or without reason. Of all of us, she is perhaps the most clear minded about our mission – I would do well to heed her instincts in the future and not let my past associations with priests and paladins cloud my judgement of her character.
  • Menet recently confided in me that she is unused to this sort of fear in the face of such overwhelming danger and the odds that not all of us will make it to see this quest finished. I want to find a way to cheer her up, and remind her that she is more than equal to this task.

The post Mutant Madness: 12 Most Zaddy X-Men Characters appeared first on Fantastic Worlds Productions.

]]>

Who are the X-Men? Well, that depends on what iteration of Marvel’s mutant superhero team you’re talking about. They’ve ranged from upstart private school do-gooders to immortal clone island nation. There have been so many members who have filled up their ranks that their homebase is essentially a revolving door. The X-Men have spawned cartoons, movie franchises, video games, board games, and countless comic spin-offs, splinters teams, and blockbuster summer events. The plight of mutants have been compared to a myriad of metaphors and real-world issues: racial minorities, AIDs allegories, apartheid, queer spaces, genocide. They are an enduring franchise and a true pillar of the Marvel comic empire. 

But I’m not here to talk about any of that. I’m here to talk about something infinitely more important than anything that has been debated before in the world of X-Men. I’m here to talk about what puts the MEN in X-men. 

We need to talk about who are the Most Zaddy X-Characters. For those of you not in the know, a zaddy is “a sexually attractive man, especially an older one who is fashionable or charismatic” (Oxford Languages). As you can see, a zaddy is a particular type of daddy lust-object — these ones have some sort of je ne se quois that excites and titillates just by their sheer presence. These persons hold a certain gravitas that draws in those foolish enough to enter their orbit. Consider me a foolish space rock then, babes, because I’m spiraling out of control!

So now it is my enviable (and self-anointed) task to distill and quantify who and who does not fit into this descriptor. To be honest, this list came too readily from me. I’m not sure what that says about me, but I do know that whatever quality this fervor spawned from, you, my dear reader, must have the same spark within yourself. (I do realize that who I consider a zaddy may be different from who you consider a zaddy, so take this list not with a grain of salt but with a tall glass of sangria accompanied by a majestic and regal fan as you soak in the heat radiating from these manly men.)

Admittedly, to just what Degree of Zaddyism a character achieves is in some part due to the skills of the artist, but the following characters, no matter who draws them, are still able to produce that unconscious “gulp” as I reach for some water to slake my thirst because my god just look at him.

Without further ado, here in no particular order are the 12 Most Zaddy X-Characters. They deserved to be drooled after. They make me hot under the collar. They are zaddies.

Colossus (Piotr Rasputin)

Marvel Illustrated: The Swimsuit Issue, art by Brian Stelfreeze

Let’s make one thing clear: about 90% of the time I find Colossus horribly boring personality-wise. He reminds me of wet cardboard that someone has painted muscles on. But man oh man those muscles. From the get-go, Piotr Rasputin was not afraid to show some skin. His mutant ability to transform his skin into organic metal apparently had the side-effect of convincing Colossus to show the world as much skin as mutantly possible. He gave two middle-fingers to the Russian snow as he flaunted his muscly goodness. Now if being as nude as possible just to gloat with your glamour muscles isn’t fashion, then what is? Colossus is at his best when he is a thicc boy. I want those thighs to be like tree trunks or so help me or I will relegate you to another substandard X-Men splinter team! The piece de resistance for Colossus is his way too infrequent beard. That addition INSTANTLY gets me off the fence and fully into “Zaddy Colossus” territory. Note to all future artists: more facial hair, less fabric. You can’t go wrong!

Bishop (Bishop Lucas)

Marvel Swimsuit Special #2, art by Dwayne Turner

Bishop hails from a dystopian far future where mutants are put into concentration camps, but that may or not be possible any more due to timey wimey wibbly wobbly deus ex machina mutant revolution bullshit. He also may have gone off the deep end for a couple years and became a sociopathic Terminator so hellbent on killing a mutant child on the off chance that she would cause said dystopian future that he razed a couple different timelines in pursuit of said. He’s also a cop, but a mutant cop from the future, so…there’s a lot to question. He’s shown where his true allegiances lie, and they are solidly on the side of good. For now. But let’s push all that aside. Let’s talk about what makes this zaddy tick. Let’s talk about how he was a mainstay in the swimsuit issues of the 90s and why current Marvel NEEDS TO BRING THESE BACK. Let’s talk about how his whole demeanor has me standing at attention and yelling, “yes, Sir!”. 

What else is there to know? Is it the way he can rock multiple hairstyles so gloriously from long flowing locks and cueball bald to homicidal dreads and modern fade high top? Is it the fact that he definitely owns handcuffs? Is it his natural swagger and what I imagine palpable musk? Whatever question is asked, there’s only one answer: he’s a zaddy. Also ACAB.

Cable (Nathan Summers)

Papa Summers has hit the building and I am NOT talking about Daddy Cyclops. We’re bypassing the man synonymous with X-Men in favor of his zaddy son-from-the-future Cable. But let me be clear — we are not talking about current Teen Cable that’s running around Krakoa. If he was of age, he would clearly be a Twunk. We’re talking grizzled, future-scarred, badass mercenary, old AF with guns bigger than a capybara Cable. This version of Nathan Summers was introduced with a gaggle of extraneous pockets and pouches and sporting a behemoth of gun. And you know what they say about muscle-bound blokes with big pockets and even bigger guns — he a zaddy. He’s gruff. Mysterious. Is constantly utilizing his near-omega level telekinesis to slow down the techno-organic virus that’s ravaging his body. Older than his own father but not anymore. His look leans more towards the utilitarian and Mad Max side of things, but he pulls it off with panache. This old dog is cocked and ready to go. Just make sure you’re hanging with the main Cable and not one of his various clones that were sent to the past in order to overcome some disease shenanigans because…comics. It was a whole thing, and you don’t want him suddenly plopping over and becoming a waste of an evening.

Cable (2017) #1, art by Dale Keown

Sauron (Karl Lykos)

art by Jim Lee

First off, this needs to be gotten out of the way. Yes, Karl Lykos is named after the Sauron from The Lord of the Rings trilogy. Yes, that basically makes him a walking copyright infringement case. No, I don’t understand how he’s allowed to keep his name. What truly matters about Sauron is his zaddy qualifications. An older male? Check. Cultured? Again, named after the ultimate baddie synonymous with high fantasy. Charismatic? He has mind-control powers so I believe that is a “technically, yes” check mark but also leaves the door open for questions revolving consent. Sexy monster mash-up? Well, technically dinosaur-mutate-vampire who feeds off the life force energy of mutants but who cares. What we really care about is his fashion choices. For decades, Sauron’s go-to costume has been a booty-huggin’ Tarzan loincloth or mid-calf denim jeans distressed to perfection. That is a fashion risk I can get behind! What he lacks in overt muscles and body hair he makes up with a Coco Chanel level of boldness and emerald green scales. He also can apparently breathe fire now. Hot! Plus, he lives in the Savage Land. If that doesn’t scream zaddy material, I don’t know what else will convince you.

Banshee (Sean Cassidy)

Well tickle me green and call me a Bonnie lass, up next is one of the original members of the All-New All-Different X-Men roster, Banshee. This man has got the luck of Irish leprechauns on his side (Literally. They live under his ancestral home Cassidy Keep), but he doesn’t even need that because his natural charm is what we’re here for.

He rocked mutton chops back in the day, actually makes the color combo of green and yellow look dashing, and was even once a member of Interpol, so he definitely has the muscle machismo fashionista street cred down pat. With his mutant ability to scream, Banshee is able to fly through the skies and can easily sweep you off your feet for a jaunt through the clouds. Just don’t forget earplugs! To be a quintessential zaddy, you have to really lean into the hyper-masculine persona, so the fact that Sean Cassidy is named after a historically female Irish cryptid makes him even more swoon-worthy. He’s so secure in his manliness that he’ll rock that Banshee moniker. Though he’s had some low points in his career (throat slit by Mystique but still alive and not able to use his powers, finally using his powers again to try to stop a plane but not being powerful enough and having it explode and kill him, being revived as one of the Apocalypse Twins’ Horsemen), there’s no keeping a good Irish zaddy down.

Generation X Holiday Special, art by Chris Bachalo

Sebastian Shaw

Astonishing X-men, art by John Cassaday

In the previous entry, I noted how Banshee used to rock mutton chops. But with this next entry, I’m happy to report that Sebastian Shaw has always and still continues to sport mutton chops. Otherwise, this perennial Black King of the Hellfire Club would look utterly ridiculous in his Victorian Era ensemble. Shaw is all about procuring, consolidating, and wielding power, both bureaucratically in benefit to the before mentioned Hellfire Club or that of his own mutant abilities. He sports the power of kinetic and thermal energy absorption in order to enhance his own strength, stamina, and recuperative abilities. In other words, he makes himself harder, better, faster, stronger all while making the good guys look wholly inadequate. I mean, the Hellfire Club always had an underground current of S&M pastiche in their DNA, but even Blindfold (who is blind) can see how Fifty Shades of Shaw his powerset can be. 

I distinctly remember a scene of X-Man Gambit using his powers to kinetically supercharge Sebastian Shaw while Shaw was shirtless and Gambit was grabbing his pecs. Of course there was body hair, but there was also a gloriously copious amount of muscles. For a Victorian dandy, Sebastian Shaw is one zaddy of a baddie which makes it even funnier that his son Shinobi Shaw is so utterly un-zaddy like (stay tuned for more on Shinobi in future articles!).

Wolverine (Logan)

Fleer Ultra: Spring Break Cards, art by Luis Royo

Despite how little I feel about the omnipresent milquetoast Wolverine, I can’t deny his zaddy status (also we share the same name so that’s dope). Wolverine is “the best there is at what he does,” so it’s no surprise to find him on this zaddy list. He’s overly-muscled. He’s gruff and stocky. Smokes cigars. Wears more flannel than a Canadian lumberjack which is not that shocking once you realize that he was living it up in Canada for many years. Wolverine’s not afraid to let loose his machismo wrath and he chooses to do it all in form-fitting spandex. His fashion ‘do is simply iconique. Why does his hair match his mask? Which came first? Who cares. He may have a kill list longer than even the most genocidal dictators, but have you seen his chest hair? Glorious. Wolverine almost lost his spot on this list because of that one time when Magneto ripped the adamantium from his skeleton and for some reason this caused Wolverine to devolve into a neanderthal-esque state with no nose but that was mercifully short-lived. This Weapon X Alum has been to hell and back, led a school in the memory of his comrade’s wife because he wanted to bang her, and was an Avenger at one point. There’s honestly too much going on with Wolverine to keep it all straight (lol) that I haven’t even talked about his mutant powers. So I won’t. But I will say that the best version of 616 Universe Wolverine is Patch, his go to disguise when he needs to be undercover where…he wears an eye patch. Like literally that’s it. Go on zaddy! Give us nothing!

Black Tom Cassidy

What has the great nation of Ireland been up to in the Marvel universe? Apparently exporting zaddies because they’ve given us not one zaddy with Banshee but a second one! And they’re cousins! There must be something extra zexy in the Cassidy Keep water to keep churning out these wonders.

Black Tom originally had the power to control to absorb energy and redirect it through wood and plant life, so of course him being Irish led to him carrying around a shillelagh at all times. Badass man with a cane alert! He eventually learned to expand his powers to controlling and communicating plant life as well as turning into some ungodly tree-mutant hybrid so…werk. He’s no longer a plant-person and instead has his zaddy body back. But what has always been a constant in Tom’s life was his attention to fashion and personal grooming. Red and black: classic combo. Sporting a gentleman’s sash cocked to one side? Exquisite and oh so pirate. Never afraid of a signature look, he’s always had some form of mustache-goatee combo and now is sporting a streak of grey. This man is slick. He also kidnapped Banshee’s daughter Siryn and raised her as his own daughter for some reason, but every family has their quirks. Now he’s ostensibly one of the good guys on Krakoa, talking to the living island and letting his chest hair flow free in the Pacific Ocean breeze.

X-Men: Blue, art by R.B. Silva

Forge

X-Men: Lifedeath, art by Barry Windsor-Smith

Well helloooooooooo, Mr. Veteran! Also, helloooooooooo Mr. Shaman! If those two occupations seem discordant, you’re correct! Forge’s real name has never been revealed, and that just adds to this zaddy’s mystery appeal. He is a man of multiple worlds: a mutant hero, a genocidal maniac, a failed shaman, an authoritarian government agent, an eccentric inventor. What’s not to love? Forge created his own Aerie using his mutant powers of being able to build whatever he can come up with, so this zaddy already gets bonus points for having his own personal pad away from the chaos of the Marvel universe. Minus points for summoning a demon during the Vietnam War that got his whole squad killed (side note: such a bad idea to tie his comics origin to such a major event. How old is he now? 40+? 60+??). It was this whole thing, so he swore off magic and went full into tech and guns. Lots of guns. It was the 90s. Everyone had guns. And pouches. But now we’re getting side-tracked. As a member of the Apache tribe, Forge sports some chic fringe on almost every uniform he’s worn, and even more so rocks a manly ponytail and red headband combo. Did I mention he always has facial hair and sometimes booty jorts? That definitely makes up for the time he tried to wipe out the universe or something! But the icing on the cake is that his main love interest was and has always been Ms. Storm herself. If you have the Ororo Munroe seal of approval, what else is there to strive for?

Apocalypse (En Sabah Nur)

Ok, when we think zaddy, we think distinguished older gentleman, amiright? Well what about a gentleman from the age of the pharaohs? That’s right, zaddy Apocalypse himself is here. Thousands of years old with blue skin like a dusky evening as well as some pillowy (genocidal?) lips, En Sabah Nur will make you walk like an Egyptian as you drink in his grandeur and sheer charisma.

With his mantra of “survival of the fittest” and his whole Book of Revelations complete with Four Horseman Motif going on, many would not be hard-pressed to call this walking mutant god “intimidating” or at the very least “theatrical”. He was always seen as the perennial villain, but he apparently hired a bitchin’ PR agent, because his whole image has been revamped and I am shooketh. No more is he a basically walking trite trope of neerdowell-ism. Oh no. Turns out Apocalypse’s ideology comes from him being mutant kind’s first Family Man. His wife and four kids were apparently trapped in an alternate dimension, so all of Apocalypse’s grandstanding and hemming and hawing was in service to be reunited with his wife Genesis (because of course). A zaddy who cares who is also a DILF? Wow. He also is chin-deep in Mutant Magic which is still newly being explored but seems like something right up zaddy-lane with the possible inclusion of wizardly beards and robes. Now, to be fair, there was the Age of Apocalypse wherein En Sabah Nur ruled over an alternate timeline and royally screwed up everything, but that was the 90s. Focus more on the beautiful reunited family as they walk to the end of existence together (but focus more on that mutant zaddy derriere).

Excalibur, art by Marcus To

Captain Britain (Brian Braddock)

Captain Britain & M13, art by Leonard Kirk

A lot of you may be scratching your head at who this character is, but trust me Captain Brian Braddock is squarely entrenched in the world of mutants. His twin is Betsy Braddock aka Psylocke and their older brother Jamie Braddock also happens to be an omega class mutant himself. Brian, sadly, is not a human. Instead, he is the sworn protector of the British Isles  that gets his powers from the Amulet of Might (sometimes the Sword of Might) and acts as a link between the regular world and Otherworld, a land of swords and sorcery and British stereotypes. He can fly. He is strong. He’s a scientist. He’s the butt of many jokes. For a long stretch, he was the leader of Excalibur (note the X), a satellite X-Men team based out of a lighthouse in England. Notable mutant members include Shadowcat, Nightcrawler, Rachel Summers, and many more. But enough about his mutant cred. 

Let’s talk zaddy. Captain Britain typically sports a skintight costume — the better to see his rippling abs and showboating muscles. The best versions of him, however, sport a truly glorious beard that makes him seem like some sort of Celtic demi-god wrapped up in the Union Jack. He’s also had bad hair days such as that era where he was sporting a mullet, but this English Gentleman is firmly entrenched in the zaddy multiverse. He’s fit. Bloody handsome. Cultured. Fun to make fun of. He’s the whole package! Except for the fact that he lost the title of Captain Britain to his twin sister and is currently going by Captain Avalon after being brainwashed by Morgan Le Fay but I digress. He’s cheeky, govnah!

Silver Samurai (Kenuichio Harada)

Marvel: War of Heroes, art by Marvel Artist

Last but not least, we come to Kenuichio Harada aka the Silver Samurai. To be fair, he’s not that popular, though he has gotten major exposure by being included in the seminal fighting game Marvel vs. Capcom 2  (he was also in the Wolverine movie but I did not enjoy that movie so let’s ignore that). The Silver Samurai’s mutant powers revolve around channeling tachyon energy through his sword and only his sword which seems…oddly specific and situational with a vague hint or orientalism. But man is he built like a brick! Who knew modern day mutant samurais were swole and lived at the gym! And his color scheme? Silvery chrome perfection. He is both blindingly handsome and just straight up blinding depending on light source. Kenuichio, Ken to his friends which are none, is one angry, gruff dude. Probably stems from him being the bastard son of the Yashida crime syndicate and half-brother to Mariko Yashida (one of) the love of Wolverine’s life who Logan killed due to her being poisoned. But whose interpersonal social life isn’t a skosh complicated. Due to his overcompensation for something out of his control, the Silver Samurai has become a very learned individual, so he checks off the culture box in spades. Plus, he’s an expert swordsman which makes anyone instantly more attractive. Unfortunately, he died (the details are fuzzy to me because it didn’t happen in an X-Men comic), but now he’s alive again because of the new mutant status quo. If you’re looking for him, check the Crucible on Krakoa. That’s where depowered mutants fight Apocalypse to the death so that they can be reborn with their mutant powers. He’s the referee. A zaddy into sports? Quick, coach, put me in!

Friday Francisco

Friday grew up in a rural farming planet, Triaxus being the closest planet, only then he was able to go to the “big city planet” a few times in his youth. Friday dreamed of exploring the stars with his best friend and confidant, his sister Tuesday,  but as an adult does it alone, his crew the closest thing he has to a family while traveling the stars.

Player: Dustin Alexander
Actor: Sam Elliott
Alignment: Chaotic Good
Character Class: Witchwarper
Current Level: 1
Deity: Weydan
Homeland: Ranch Planet A
Race: Human

Size: Medium
Gender: Male
Pronouns: He/Him
Age: 38
Height: 6’6″
Weight:  160 lbs
Hair: Orange
Skin: Purple

Character Sheet: 

Friday Francisco – Level 1 Witchwarper

Alignment Statement:

What is my legacy? Will it be one running cargo for a company like EJ or will it be exploring the stars with my own ship and a crew close enough to be considered family. EJ Corp is just a link in the chain to achieving that, one day I will be able to fly the skies on my own flying free. I must take every opportunity to get out there on my own and explore what is beyond the stars I see.

Values:

  1. Live each day with courage
  2. Take pride in your work
  3. Always finish what you start
  4. Do what has to be done
  5. Be tough, but fair
  6. When you make a promise, keep it
  7. Talk less and say more
  8. Remember that some things aren’t for sale
  9. Know where to draw the line.

Bonds:

Ballad

  • Ballad likes to present as a tough loner, but I can see behind those eyes some fear and a yearning to be a part of something bigger than herself. I need to make sure she feels she can trust me and I can trust her. 
  • I might not be the sharpest tool in the shed, but I know Ballad is holding something back. I am sure it has to do with some very obvious trust issues. We need to work through this fast because I can’t protect her or the crew if I don’t dangers may be around us.

Seren

  • Seren‘s confidence seems to be waning after our recent cargo drop off, I don’t care what xer past is, as a member of our crew I need to let xer know I will protect xer and that I trust xer as long as xe trust enough to tell me what is happening with xer.
  • I need to talk to Seren about adding some songs to Jambot’s playlist. There is not one country or folk song on Jambot and that is an error I aim to correct. 

Fanny

  • I love Miss Fanny, she is always prepared and able to provide comfort whether that be a warm meal, an ear to listen, or a first aid kit. However, I already have a mother and I need to find a way for Miss Fanny to dial back from an 11 to at least a seven. 
  • As someone who tends to put himself last I notice that Fanny also tends to do the same. I am learning that I need to put myself first occasionally, and I need to make sure Fanny does the same. 

Personal Bond

  • If those sons of bitches take action to harm my mother, the gloves are off!

Aspirations:

Short Term Goals

  • I have not achieved my company goals in the last six months, I must find a way to hit the gap, or it may harm my family and that is just not acceptable.

Mid Term Goals

  • After years of working under the thumb of EJ Corp, it is time to move to be an independent contractor. I am not sure how I will achieve this, but it’s time for a change. 

Long Term Goals

  •  Looking to travel the stars with the crew people I consider family.

Miss Fanny

Every universe has a Miss Fanny. You know her. She cuts the crusts off your sandwiches and always reminds you to take a sweater with you because it is cold outside. For Miss Fanny, empathy is the power of connection. Don’t get her wrong; she is not under the illusion that the world is a perfect place; she has seen her share of cruelty. Due to her physiology, chances are she has walked a mile in your shoes and, therefore, will always have an
empathic ear to hero and villain alike: an ear and a slice of pie.

Character Sheet: 

Miss Fanny – Level 1 Technomancer

Alignment Statement:

A year ago I was your adversary. Yesterday I was your neighbor. At this moment I am your ally. Tomorrow I will be you. You have my anger, love, compassion, disdain, and endless admiration.

Values:

Fly a mile in their ship 

  • Every individual has a unique experience in the cosmos. Their experience is valid and represents their own truth. Your experience may intermingle or clash with others, influence or be influenced. What it wont do is invalidate or poison it. Honor the form and seek first to understand the experience. Though you may change in the next instance, to thy own self be true.

Fly beyond the stars

  • Every world has a wealth of knowledge, sights, sounds, and cultures. Every solar system is a light with innovation, life, and unturned stones. Perpetual discovery and exploration is the lifeblood of the universe. What hidden wonders can be found in the vast beyond? Let us fly beyond the stars and find out!

Live Free or Die

  • Life forms are not meant to live under the heel, sole, or tentacle of others. Slavery is abhorrent plain and simple. Empathy, understanding, and compassion ends there.

Bonds:

Friday

  • His eyes flicker momentarily with familial concern as he pulls up his sleeve to assist the crew with their work. The casual gait blended with knotted shoulders. Friday is one of many siblings who is used to looking after others.
  • Captain, command thyself – The crew is a family in the eyes of the captain. They provide him a sense of normalcy and provide comfort in the absence of their own. Thinking of others is a wonderful quality, but he can and should want things for himself and put himself first from time to time.
  • Heavy is the seat – The captain takes care of the crew. Who takes care of the captain? No need to guess. The captain needs taking care of. Maybe fluffing his pillows is a tad overboard, I suppose he can do that on his own. He is a big boy after all.

Seren

  • The specific hue of their lumination and lattice formation indicates trauma of some sort during their formative years. Xhe also has incredible resilience. I wish I had been like xer in my youth.
  • A diamond in the rough – I’ve become too comfortable cooking in the background. I’m grateful for Seren’s companionship. The entire crew is a delight, however Seren’s visits to view “Live! Danger! Extreme! Starring Zo!”! is the highlight of my week. I’ll have them hooked on “Sheesket Haak Luag” the best vesk soap opera out there.
  • Sharp as toranium ops module – Seren is best xerself among engines, relays, and magnanspanners. What brilliance. I have loved engineering since my military days and know my way around subcircits and boridium plating. I look forward to learning more from xer.

Ballad

  • Her movements are too perfect. There is a practiced and honed cadence to their step. Their palate is extremely refined and their knowledge of flavor combinations is vast. What a fierce combatant, she would have loved my military unit. There is a lot of life energy in that short frame. Almost too much for one life form.They would pull off an aged form much better than I.
  • Cat ears, cat purr- Ballad is beyond adorable. And much like the feline style she enjoys, she is highly independent. I feel she has blossomed in her time with this crew, forming unexpected bonds. It is not my place to deepen her bonds with others, but Miss Fanny seems the type to meddle. Yes, that sounds right.
  • A shapeshifter knows a shapeshifter – What forms has this wonderful creature taken in the past, what parts of their natural form took root in this new form. This of course works the other way around. I by no means am a wizened small humanoid. The time will come for us to share our stories and experiences. 
  • Cat claws – Violence is never the answer. Except when it is. There is a time for Miss Fanny to be meek, and there is time for her to break open a pressurised canister of chanclas. I wonder if Ballad would be willing to show this “old gel” some new tricks.

Calamity

  • This vessel is home but clearly was not built for the various species of the galaxy. I should not have had to modify so many areas to allow comfort for a Shimreen. There are plenty more modifications needed to make this vessel truly homey. The time may come to Miss Fanny to adapt in order to upgrade for the greater good.

Personal Bonds

  • Be the change – There are things I can control, there are things I cannot. Joy and cruelty both exist in this multiverse. Change is my constant, and I will be the change I want to see in the ‘verse.
  • No place like home – The Reisora household will remain in my heart and is what I picture as home, the good and the bad. I could attempt to lie to myself and pretend I did not want to be known by biological progenitors. My is said to be rare. We are by no means easy to spot. Could we have crossed paths already. One day I will have the time, no, the courage to look for them.

Aspirations:

Short Term Goals

  • Keep morale up as best as you are able
  • Help Runo
  • Help the crew with their EJ troubles
  • Truly understand the experiences of an elderly humanoid form
  • Open up to the idea of using their abilities for the crew

Mid Term Goals

  • Explore a powerfly physical form
  • Explore flight form
  • Reconnect with parents

Long Term Goals

  • Courtship of Vesk hunk
  • Develop diplomatic skills
  • Find bio units

Ballad Serenade (Tetra 9)

Whatever your preconceptions are about androids, throw them out the window before you meet Ballad Serenade. She’s rough and rowdy, fun-loving and fashion-forward, sexy and silly, kind and carefree. They’re a one-of-a-kind construct, and they’re here for a good time and a long time. She doesn’t know where, for what, or by whom she was created, but she does know that the life she’s lived since has propelled her in one direction: forward. Where her new position on the Calamity will take her, only time can tell.

Ballad Serenade – Level 1 Solarian 

Alignment Statement:

Life is messy, chaotic, unbridled, unhinged – so I, too, will live thusly. 

It’s a cruel and random world, but the chaos is all so beautiful. – Hiromu Arakawa

Values:

Courage

  • Without courage we cannot practice any other virtue with consistency. We can’t be kind, true, merciful, generous, or honest. – Maya Angelou

Living Free

  • The moment someone has leverage on you, it’s time to slip away and find the means to turn it around on them. Never let another person hold something over your head.

Protecting What’s Important

  • The people I care about are my reason for living, and I will not let anyone hurt them.

Bonds:

Group Bond

  • I thought when I came to EJ corp I was going to be bored. I thought I wouldn’t care about the people I worked with – that they wouldn’t be of any use to me – but this crew is something special. These are talented people, and they deserve better than EJ corp. We’ve only been together on this ship for a year, but I can tell already that we’re going to accomplish big things together. I’m beyond excited to play my part, and I plan to protect this group with everything I have. 

Seren

  • Seren is vulnerable right now. Xhe’s clearly been running for quite some time, and now that xhe’s been found out, wants to run from us as well. I understand xher feelings, but in the past year, I’ve found boon companions in this crew. And I think if the both of us are to stand any chance of facing our pasts, we need to stick with the people we have now and face these things all together. We’re stronger as a unit, and I think we can trust them. I want to make sure xhe knows that, and that xhe won’t disappear on xher own and never get the chance to heal xher wounds. 

Friday

  • Friday knows I’m not telling him everything. He has a keener eye for these things than I gave him credit for, though I bear some of the blame for his suspicion after using my contacts to get us a better deal on those berries. I’ve shown my hand, and now it’s time to face the music and tell him just enough to satisfy his curiosity. But there are some things I simply can’t share. Not yet, at least. I just hope things don’t really hit the fan and give away the rest of my cards before I get the right chance to come clean. And I hope he’ll forgive me if worse comes to worst.

Miss Fanny

  • Miss Fanny has some interesting things up her sleeves, and I get the feeling that – much like the rest of this crew – she has some skeletons in her closet that she isn’t revealing just yet. I feel like there’s a deep well there, but perhaps not as deep as she’s pretending, either. I desperately want to know what her deal is, and find out what she’s hiding under that matronly exterior. 

Sinjin

  • Sinjin has made it big if Kiyohiro is correct. That doesn’t bode well for my future. I promised him I’d come back in desperation, knowing he wouldn’t help me otherwise, but if he’s a boss now, that means he might feel he’s in a position to “keep” me. I thought I would find a solution to this problem before he found me again, but I worry that by exposing myself in the Hive Market, I may have compromised my position. I have to do everything I can to stay hidden from him. 

Aspirations:

Short Term Goal

  • Take on the GL and get the people coming after Seren and I off our backs

Mid Term Goal

  • Help Friday save his family 
  • Break free from EJ corp 

Long Term Goal

  • Find out who created me and for what purpose

Why do I game? There is a very straightforward answer: I like the escape  that gaming offers.

As someone who moved around a lot as a kid I was often anxious and had a hard time making friends because of the constant fear that I would have to leave those friends behind. Games offered me an opportunity to go on adventures, make friends with the characters, and feel an overwhelming sense of accomplishment.

As a child I played board games with my sister as often as I could and when I got the Gameboy pocket for my 7th birthday I began playing some retro classics like Megaman: Dr Wiley’s Revenge and Paperboy. As I grew up I picked up a variety of games for the gameboy and my family’s Apple Macintosh, (Back when they were still called Macintosh). I loved the mystery and depth of the world in Myst and Riven. I Loved the collecting aspects and battle mechanics of games like Pokemon and Megaman Battle Network. I delved into the massive worlds of Golden Sun and Breath of Fire on the Gameboy Advance. 

While I would like to say I got into TTRPGs at this time, I had about two mediocre experiences playing a Christian themed TTRPG with some friends. I wouldn’t try another TTRPG until I was about 19 with a group of people I didn’t know and couldn’t overcome my own anxiety around doing actual roleplay with. After moving to Idaho, my love of games turned into regularly playing Magic the Gathering, Betrayal at House on the Hill and the DC Deck Building games. Games which required seeing people in person, and required making friends to actually enjoy them. These games paved the way for me to actually get into Pathfinder because they helped me be less anxious, to learn rules and make friends more easily.

One common theme throughout my years of gaming is that I would create characters that I felt best represented myself. Which is to say, I would always play as a woman and connect with those characters. Gaming for me was not just an escape from the world around me, but from the fact that I often felt uncomfortable in my skin. By playing as a woman in games like World of Warcraft or Guild Wars 2, I could interact with people without them knowing I was anything besides who I felt I was. 

Events in my life forced me to take stock of what I wanted in my life and who I wanted to be and I decided to be myself, not in a game, but in real-life. Once I took the step to begin my transition from who I used to be to who I am now I began playing Pathfinder again, for real this time. I create characters that help me identify areas of my life I’m struggling with and work through them. So, why do I play games? So that I can be the best version of myself.

A descendant of elementals born on a planet battered by violent elemental storms. Seren has been on the run for as long as xhe can remember with only xer trusty JamBot by xer side. After finding a home with the Calamity crew, Seren’s past has finally caught up with xer. Maybe it’s time to quit running.

Deity: Weydan
Homeland: Shimransara
Race: Shimreen

Size: Medium

Height: 7’5″
Weight:  250 lb

Skin: Indigo crystals with sparkling lights inside

Character Sheet: 

Seren Casurus – Level 1 Mechanic

Alignment Statement:

I’ve been hurt and have been helped by people on both sides of the law. I’ve learned enough to know that I don’t want to hurt anyone I don’t have to, and I’ll help those I can. I just hope that when this all shakes out the people in power will look kindly on me …

Values:

Family:

  • Family is the people you choose to keep in your life because they’re good to you. I will protect them at all costs, even if it means my own safety. 

Critical thinking:

  • I’ve been in a lot of situations where I have had to rely on nothing but my multi tool and my mind to get by. There’s nothing I can’t solve if I think hard enough about it.

Bonds:

 Group bond

  • The Calamity has been my home for the last 8 years and people have come and gone, but Friday and Miss Fanny seem like people I can trust to not abandon me. I’m generally okay being left alone with the engine, making sure that the ship runs its best whether I’m here or not.  

Friday

  • Friday saw me at one of the lowest points in my life. Right after my terraforming job when I was scared and struggling with my grasp on reality, he let me join his crew. I have a lot to learn from him about being stable and supportive. 
  • I don’t know if I can trust that he’s not going to abandon me once he knows the full details of my past, but I’m willing to risk my rocks if he wants to give me the time of day.

Miss Fanny

  • Miss Fanny is complicated. She feels like a mother figure and someone I can go to when I’m upset. But my own Mother was so absent while I was growing up that I feel awkward with how much Miss Fanny dotes on me. Besides, how does she always know what rocks taste the best and just how to get abrasions off my crystals. 
  • I look forward to catching every episode of “Live! Danger! Extreme! Starring Zo!” every week with Miss Fanny.

Ballad

  • Ballad is new to the group and I’m unsure of their place in our dynamic, but she joined the crew and that makes them family for now. 
  • It seems Ballad and I have shared history of which I was unaware. I’m taking a chance letting her get this close to me and it scares my latticework to let someone see me so vulnerable. 

Jambot

  • Jambot is my oldest friend. I made them out of scrap as a kid on Absalom Station And have been upgrading them ever since. They’re the only one I’ve ever felt comfortable talking to about my fears because I know they won’t leave me.

Calamity 

  • I’ve spent years making sure this ship keeps running. With the upgrades and modifications I’ve made, she’ll work long after I’ve left. 

Shan

  • Shan saved my life and I’ve loved staying in contact with her, but it’s been a while since I heard from her and I’m starting to get worried. 

Personal

  • I’ve had too many people leave me and I can’t trust anyone to stay if they knew who I really am. I get upset too easily and am ready to go if it ever looks like they’re going to betray me. 
  • I haven’t been this close to my Mother since I was 8 standard years old and I feel pulled to track zer down and ask zer what ze was thinking but I doubt ze’ll ever give me a real response.

Aspirations:

Short term goal

  • I want to get back off the radar and avoid further notice by the Golden League or the Disciples of Grace so that one day I can retire to a world without any water where I can be alone. 
  • I want to get some new pieces to upgrade Jam bot’s speaker system so that I can enjoy the highest quality version of Star Sugar Heartlove’s newest album. 
  • Abadarcorp is releasing the newest in their line of furry friends toys and haven’t said what it’s going to be yet and I need to get one on release day. 

Mid Term Goal

  • This crew has shown me that I might have run away too quickly from Dade and I want to figure out how to apologize for what I did to her.

Long Term Goal

  • I want to reconnect with my mother and figure out what ze has been running from all this time.

The post The Fairy Dance – A Fairly Spring Inspired Cocktail appeared first on Fantastic Worlds Productions.

It’s nearly spring (at least in Northern California) and when Abbie told me an Irish fairy tale called The Fairy Dance, I got caught up in the romance of the story and couldn’t stop thinking about those warm spring nights that are just up ahead. In the story, a young girl finds herself dancing with a mysterious yet beautiful young man and is whisked away into his world and is generously offered some food and wine. But, if you know anything about fairies, let it be this: DO NOT drink the fairy wine.

This dreamy and whimsical Irish folk tale instantly made me want to create a cocktail in its name, inspired by the dizzying and amorous feeling you get after a night of dancing and drinking what I imagine fairy wine might taste like. I chose to put a floral spin on one of me and Abbie’s favorite drinks: the French 75. 

I highly recommend listening to some beautiful music while making and drinking this gorgeous cocktail. Abbie made a perfect playlist to go along with it so check it out!

The Fairy Dance

  • 1.5 oz gin
  • .5 oz hibiscus or rose simple syrup*
  • .5 oz rosemary simple syrup
  • Just a squeeze of fresh lemon juice, or to taste
  • Chilled sparkling wine, to top up
  • Edible flowers, to garnish

Fill a cocktail shaker with ice. Add gin and syrup, shake vigorously and strain into a coupe glass. Top up with chilled sparkling wine.

*Any floral simple syrup will do. I used these. 

For the rosemary simple syrup, I made my own:

Rosemary Simple Syrup

  • 1 cup water
  • 1 cup white sugar
  • 3 sprigs of fresh rosemary

In a small saucepan, bring sugar and water to a boil, simmer until sugar is dissolved. Add fresh rosemary and let continue to simmer for about 10 minutes. Remove from heat and let cool completely. Strain rosemary.
