A wondrous and frightening story about a great berserk called Dracula the voivode who inflicted such unchristian tortures such as with stakes and also dragged people to death
#hellsing#alucard#kouta hirano#translation was found in a comment by u/lazyfoxheart on r/Kurrent#fun fact this is the highest quality version of this image that exists online#i know because i've been looking forever for a version that's clear enough to actually read what hirano wrote under '1443'#but there weren't any so i had to take matters into my own hands#the real image on the back of the guidebook is only 2 inches tall so i had to take this with my smartphone and will my hands not to shake#anyway i'm pretty sure it's supposed to say Eğrigöz (the location vlad was imprisoned) so yeah. thank you hirano very cool#if i might rant for a sec it took me an embarrassingly long time to figure that out because i didn't have the guidebook at first#and in the images i could find online that part was just a blur that looked suspiciously like a person's signature and i was like. who tf#i was thinking matthias corvinus since he issued some political propaganda against vlad iirc but it didn't match his signature on wikipedia#then i thought it might be vlad II dracul's since he probably had to sign an agreement to send his sons over as hostages at some point#but that didnt seem right either so i kept skimming vlad's wiki page#and then i was like goddammit...hirano.....you just misspelled Eğrigöz didn't you.. ....#i maybe should've made a separate post dedicated to this instead of writing a novel in the tags but eh#the hellsing brainrot runs deep#also- i put it in the source link at the bottom of the post but the german inscription is copied off a real woodcut of vlad from 1491#except instead of depicting him as an adult hirano drew him as a child which gives the inscription a very different feel imo#the one final thing that interests me about this is the fact that hirano published this calendar in 2002#which is REALLY early in the series. like this was before volume 5 came out??#i have no idea why he decided to do a massive spoiler drop in a random piece of japan-only merch#sandwiched between a drawing of alucard as john travolta from saturday night fever and integra as a fish no less#it makes me really curious to know what the fan response to this was back then. like did people even know who this was#maybe im just an idiot and everyone back then was like 'ah yes its alucard as a 12 year old. how very informative'

are amphibians like newts and frogs considered aquatic? i know crustaceans & mollusks would be
Yes they are! Generally, the more time it spends on land, the closer it will be to 5 calories than 4. The estimate was actually based on frogs and tadpoles, I had to make an educated guess.
My best source was a feeding chart from a reptile food website which sells whole small prey for consumption by snakes. It perfectly lists out the values of dozens of small animals, but no fish. So I took a note of the 4 calorie estimate, observed that an adult frog increases in calories compared to tadpoles (bucking the trend with the others on the list where younger animals are worth more caloric value) and went on to do more research
I couldn't find a source that broke down WHOLE prey caloric value like the chart, so I ended up comparing caloric value between rabbit fillets, chicken fillets, and fish fillets on human-centric nutrition websites. My hypothesis was mostly consistent, even with more species added. Fish (perch, flounder, pike) < Wild Mammal (rabbit, squirrel) < Poultry (chicken, turkey, quail). There was overlap between "classes", certain fish getting over the 100 hump, but generally there was a trend I boiled down into 4/5/6
This is consistent with how a lot of fish meat is actually water. In fact, cats quench a lot of their thirst from the food they eat. I also learned some very interesting stuff about the fat distribution in fish which is going to blow a bit of a hole in some of my Clan culture stuff lmaoooo, but I'll furiously swim across that obliterated bridge when I get there
But funfact! Fish oil is rendered fish fats and it is the form that unsaturated fat takes, whereas lard is what saturated fats become. I need to do more research into this topic to understand what kind of difference it would make in a wild cat's diet.
There was one big bucked trend though: salmonid meat was WAAAAY higher in fat and calories. Like, absurdly high. Like 150 cal trout fillet vs 110 cal of rabbit fillet vs 88 cal of perch fillet.
I do not know why that is. My guess is that maybe it's because they were taking the number from farmed salmonids? Maybe it's because they're particularly fatty fish? Perhaps this is just the raw power of salmon slammin'.
Anyway, at one point I was trying to estimate exact caloric value per popular prey species, but decided I didn't have the "backing" to get so exact with the numbers since I was doing estimates with the fish. I'll do the work if it comes down to it, but for now, 4/5/6 is a quick, easy guideline you can use for just about any WC project.
#I was planning for Bb!RiverClan to be the guys who didn't cook much#Being quite snooty about it and insisting it's good for you#But it turns out they're actually at the highest risk of getting worms for that#Maybe I'll keep it for the irony because that sounds VERY funny#Cleric in the corner SOBBING because Waterpool just caught tapeworms for the 4th time#Willowpelt over in TC like ''I ALWAYS KNEW THEIR GLOSSY COATS WERE TOO GOOD TO BE TRUE!!''#No wonder her daughter Sorrel has a thing about worms lmaoo#I need to do more research but what I've come across here is that. Like. Actually?#A fish-only diet might cause a lot of really specific and pretty serious problems in RC#Another is that fish have so many micronutrients that some of the sites I visited were warning about some of those 'overdose' side effects.#The carp example was just the most interesting#I guess I had been assuming a lot based on the conception of fish as being 'the healthy meat'#Clan culture#Nutrition guide#Bone babble

ULTRAKRILL
Sisyphish (Lion's Mane Jellyfish) and Minnows (White Ribbon Eel) Prime
Glubriel (Caribbean Reef Squid)
SubmarV1ne (Longfin Mako Shark (+ Sailfish)) and SubmarV2ne (Great White Shark (+ Sailfish)) (also inspired by the little articulated snake toys)
Rambling about why I chose the beasts that I did under the cut.
Originally I was gonna use yellow tangs for Sisyphus but then I was looking at his design and was not sure how I would deal with his face while going with a fish for the tail. And then I remembered that jellies' tentacles kinda look like the way his hair does in the concept art, and while I was looking for yellow jellies I saw a lion's mane and went. Yes, that one. Very happy with the way it looks it was a lot of fun to draw.
Minos was originally gonna be a deep sea giant isopod, but after I remembered that jellyfish existed I considered going with a sea snake, couldn't find ANY naturally white snakes, thought about an albino moray, then found out about white ribbon eels (which are related to morays, very cool). He's technically the only fish unless you count the V models jkgjkhgf
Gabriel was originally gonna be a paradise/mustard gas betta but I ended up deciding that if I ever drew/wrote about them all I would be so annoyed about there being just. One freshwater fish in the ocean with saltwater creatures just,, bothered me so much that man would be In Pain. So I decided to look for color changing sea creatures, most cephalopods obviously, and one of the first ones that came up was the Caribbean reef squid. I checked to see if they could be red and they sure could so I decided that worked.
Also, his crown(?) is meant to look like gorgonian coral.
V1 was originally going to be a shortfin mako because they're slightly faster, but the silhouette was so similar that I was STRUGGLING to find differences. Longfin wasn't much better though. Regardless, mako shark because they're known for being the fastest shark and among the fastest fish.
V2 is a great white because strong scary y'know y'know. I considered dunkleosteus for the same reasons, but switched to a shark because V1 was also gonna be one and I wanted them to mostly match.
V1 and V2 both have two sailfin sails because 1. big fin to mimic their wings, 2. fast fish. Very cool.
Also the doodles on them are meant to show that the sails can fold back for speed and open to stop quick. The other one is to show that they can swap the tails out for legs if they wanted to.
#turning characters into sea beasts is the highest honor i can bestow#while looking for creatures i learned that shortfin mako and great white sharks are 2/5 living lamnidae species#neat. note that theres at least 35 species listed on the wikipedia page. anyway real tags time thanks for looking at the fish#sisyphus ultrakill#sisyphus prime#minos ultrakill#minos prime#gabriel ultrakill#v1 ultrakill#v2 ultrakill#ultrakill art#ultrakill#my art#merfolk#merpeople#ultrakrill#i might write about this because my silly ass is horrifically obsessed with fish and shrimp and snails and and also ultrakill yipee!#also sisyphus and minos are the first beefy guys ive ever drawn and it was horrific forty seven casualties three deaths twelve missing

because i feel like it here's my interpretation of all the king salmonids so far. i am just making this up since nintendo refuses to give us even the tiniest of crumbs
COHOZUNA-
As the default sort of king salmonid, Coho fills the equivalent role of 'guy you vote for because you recognize him from an ad' in salmonid society. Except they don't have elections probably.
-His overall normalness and resemblance to them makes him popular among lesser salmonids
-His chains are trophies from sunken or looted inkfish vessels
-Would be a very stand-up guy if you could talk to him without the use of a lift or perhaps a crane
-Longest-standing king, but not the oldest
HORRORBOROS-
He's just standing (floating) in the corner, and nobody is removing him because they’re too scared to talk to him.
-Popular among older, no-nonsense audiences, as well as insane young'uns
-Octarians find him endearing thanks to his resemblance to the great zapfish
-Was deformed by polluted/irradiated water
-Requires a LOT of medical attention because of this, and spends time in both salmonid and octarian care
-Less 'wants to have power' and more 'really fucking hates inkfish'
-Crotchety old man
MEGALODONTIA-
Gangly, football-playing teenager of a fish. Child of some recently-deceased-or-retired, more powerful and respected figure that automatically obtained their position.
-Highly contested, but popular among salmonid monarchists for obvious reasons, and boss salmonids
-Tends to hide in ink because he’s self conscious about his appearance
-Curious about inkfish and their culture
-HATES the salmonid dentist for reasons unrelated to the braces
-Not a big fan of the other king salmonids, the feeling is mutual
-Youngest king salmonid
#salmon run#megalodontia is like 'if THATS a baby then what does its mom look like?! o-o' core to me#cuz if we are being for real. the focus on braces and the MASSIVE pimple weak spot is screaming salmon adolescence#also he has the highest pitched vocals out of all of em.#the amount of restraint it took not to make this about fish yaoi.

IMMEDIATELY.”#all while sobbing slightly#this is all a joke btw#I have no idea how the Worm works tbh#so I just made this up :3#btw she's a gyaru and she's pretty sly and clever#my glorbos#banging art :3

Clever girl!🦖
It's like you know exactly what in thinkin.
-keisuke
Oh- I- uhm. *Blushes* thank you, we're quite the dream team!
I think there's more though. I've been sitting on this for a while. If they did try to kill him, then why? You asked if he could have been a part of bonten. What if that was true? Maybe he tried turning Mikey and izana against each other and izana had him killed, because Mikey's his only surviving sibling? Except he didn't die because my shuji saved him and kept it quiet, which is why he doesn't want me to know. This is just specualation of course.
#hals character anons#oh i...... noooo it's like the highest form of praise!!!!#i love being told im clever but i hate fishing for it#but it makes me ajsjsjsjsjd

My cat does not appreciate the sacrifices I make for her (letting her have a lick of the butter from my toast)
#the life of a pet owner has the highest highs (having a cat)#and the lowest lows (giving her a lick of butter from my toast)#i Hope science invents how to explain to pets what ‘occasional treat’ means#not fish#catblr

I think a lot about Shepard's fish tank wipeout in the Citadel DLC.
The entire DLC is this lighthearted love letter to Mass Effect, and it's beautiful. But then there's THIS moment. When Shepard falls through a fish tank.
The entire way down, they desperately try to arrest their fall. They have no shields. No combat armor. There is no one to catch them. It feels like this is one of the few times there is ever fear. And they don't land gently. And the cut scene lingers on it. There is no levity in this moment. Shepard is on the ground, groaning in pain, slow to get up, clutching their ribs. First instinct before they try to get to their feet? Reach for the gun. Have that first. Then see if you can stand.
And I think the only reason we can have this moment, where Shepard is vulnerable, injured, and in trouble, is because there is no one there to see. The moment Brooks gets on the comm, they crack a joke. "Yup. Feeling good." While unable to stand up straight.
We get this at the end of the game, too, but that's when the stakes are at their highest. That's when it's supposed to be hard. It's no less magnificent then, but now, in this moment? When everything was happy and fun and silly? MAN.
And afterward, everyone jokes about it. Every single member of your squad makes a crack about the sushi place. And Shepard plays along. Haha, yeah, fell right through it, while trying to change the subject.
No one knows what that fall was like. No one saw Shepard lying on the ground in the bowls of the Silversun Strip, water dripping off them, struggling to get to their feet.
And no one asks, because it's Shepard.
