[OLD ART]

a little headbonk between siblings feat. Logster and Sentry <3

Ruby: Welcome, initiates... To the ancient and secret truth of the ORDO HUNTRESSIA! We are a clandestine society dedicated to the preservation of peace and terrible latin.

Ruby: Our order has, of course, lurked in the shadows for many, many, MANY years with a lot of well-known members, like... Oh, er, uh, y'know, Blake, over there, and Weiss, and then me, obviously, Yang, who is a founding member. Oh, and, uh, General Ironwood... was probably a member, too, you can't prove he wasn't!

Ruby: 'C-Cause, y'know, secrets!

Ruby: But first, let us look to our most ancient and sacred rule. Logkeeper Supremicia?

Yang: (Holds sign, "Snitches Get Stitches")

Ruby: AHA! See that? You break that rule, and we- Hoof! We will be so mad at you!

The Pirates SMP Kill Tally: an Analysis

(AKA I've been curious about everyone's kill counts for months and finally got around to making the count and the post.)

Obligatory "everything is roleplay" disclaimer.

Criteria for kills

For my own peace of mind, bounties do not count as kills due to the respawn mechanism

We're (mostly) sticking to permanent deaths, so the cast accidentally killing each other in battle via friendly fire does NOT count either

I'm judging by in-game death messages for who got the final blow

Each kill on a Cultist = 1 kill because I don't care about the respawn mechanism on them; I'm just assuming they're all different people and the respawn is to bypass out-of-universe logistics

It's impossible to determine ALL kills due to the established worldbuilding, but we sure are trying our best

Kills are sorted by event for organization; non-event kills and deaths are listed separately

Day 1 / July 30: Recruitment Day

None of the pirates have killed anyone yet! Woo!

Ivy / Corruption: Aimsey (1)

Iris / Cultists: Guqqie (1)

Day 36 / Sept 3: In Too Deep

Against all odds, no one technically dies. Michela shot the crystal that freed Ivy and the Corruption, but by that point, Ivy's been using Aimsey's body as a puppet anyway and p!Aimsey has been officially listed as "fallen" on the POWCreations Twitter since Day 1. So no, Michela did not kill Aimsey; Ivy and the Corruption did

Day 76 / Oct 13: The Rescue Mission

Acho: 1 Cultist, shot from above

Apo: 1 Cultist, shot just after the release of the Yetis

Scott: 1 Cultist, stabbed with a kitchen knife

Iris / Cultists: Marnie (1)

Day 77 / Oct 14: The Revenge Raid

Acho: 5 Cultists

Graecie: 1 Cultist, killed in melee

Kuervo: 1 Cultist

Kyle: 3 Cultists

Owen: 1 Cultist

Ros: 1 Cultist

Scott: Altair, the Right Hand of Iris, who seemingly respawns later for some reason (0.5)

Shelby: 1 Cultist, three-shot

Shep: 1 Cultist

Water: 1 Cultist

Iris / Cultists: Hook (1)

Day 93 / Oct 30: Halloween

Captain Golden Beard and her crew of 890 pirates (i.e. 891 in total) were technically killed by the cursed gold created by Nocturnus and Eclipsa

Nocturnus: Mufasa (1; but I personally don't believe it)

Seapeekay: Nocturnus (1); while two rounds were fought on-stream, both Owen and Martyn's YouTube adaptations use the first round as standard, so that's what I'm going with

Day 112 / Nov 18: Final Wishes

Against all odds, no POV character dies again! It's just the Faction Isles backstory drop lore event. That being said...

Iris / Cultists: Many unnamed individuals; including dozens of villagers [only one named character, Icarus, but identifies the Logkeeper and their cousin (1), brothers (2+), friends (2+)], many unnamed pirates [presumably incl. "Mrs. Caravel" and her two children] (10+)

Although most, if not all pirates end up having to kill the vengeful wraiths/ghosts of the townsfolk, as with Aimsey's case, they were dead to begin with and thus don't count

Day 134 / Dec 10: The Finale

Annotation: Only Take 2 of the Battle on the Faction Isles is counted, but Take 1 kills are recorded for reference.

Apo: 5 Cultists

Graecie: 4 Cultists

Jojo: 1 Cultist in Take 1 of the battle, 5 Cultists in Take 2, Ohca / Insane Cultist (6)

Kuervo: 2 Cultists

Kyle: 6 Cultists

Oli: 2 Cultists, Pip by accident (3)

Ros: 1 Cultist in the Take 1 of the battle

Scott: 1 Cultist

Seapeekay: 1 Cultist

Shep: 4 Cultists

Water: 2 Cultists

Iris / Cultists (offscreen): Olive (confirmed by cc!Apo), Sniff (confirmed by cc!Apo), Scar, Shelby, Puffy, Eret (confirmed by cc!Apo), Reddoons, Tubbo, Michela (9)

Ohca / Insane Cultist specifically: Claud, Saffrie, Finn, the Enchantress, Katie (5)

Other unnamed Cultists: Digby (1)

Ivy / Corruption: Iris (1)

Ivy's own death is hard to pin down, because the positive magick countering the Corruption in her is literally the Power of Love and Friendship, with Cruppy as a sacrifice; it can't be attributed to Iris because she's already dead by that point, but the cast didn't exactly do anything to kill her either

Non-event kills (known)

Iris / Cultists: "Dai", Bek on Day 125 / Dec 1, Will on Day 130 / Dec 6 (3)

Bek: 2 unnamed Cultists that captured her on Day 125 / Dec 1 (2)

Kuervo: Commanders Francesco, Miria, Charrio, Rosaria, Tapia, Miguel, Travis, and Ernesto of the Nayan Armada [Javi and Rodrigo survived the rampage, would technically be 1st degree murder due to premeditation; but let's be honest, we're cheering him on because they're tyrants]; 1 unnamed Cultist on Day 126 / Dec 2 (9)

Martyn: Jeffery on Day 125 / Dec 1

Sausage: At least 2, 4, or 5 unnamed naval soldiers holding his uncle captive in his backstory, arguably in self-defense; reports are inconsistent and the canonicity of the 4 or 5 is questionable because psychotherapy is anachronistic for the setting

Shep: At least one unnamed individual on Captain Merton's orders; p!Will's case could either be 2nd degree or voluntary manslaughter under US laws [for reference only] (1.5+)

p!Acho technically wasn't killed by anyone, but if we had to determine a killer, it would be whoever set up the trap and ultimatum in Kishi in the first place; however, since that person's identity is unknown and presumably lost to time, we cannot say for certain who is to blame. Same would go for Mahara and perhaps countless others

Total kills in the SMP-era (i.e. does not count distant worldbuilding kills)

* is counted for kills NOT in self-defense; battlefield kills or fighting back against captors ARE considered self-defense

Acho: 6, all unnamed Cultists

Apo: 6, all unnamed Cultists

Bek: 2, all unnamed Cultists

Jojo: 6, incl. Ohca / Insane Cultist

Graecie: 5, all unnamed Cultists

Kuervo: 12, incl. 8 tyrants* and 4 unnamed Cultists

Kyle: 9, all unnamed Cultists

Martyn: 1, specifically Jeffery*

Oli: 3, incl. Pip (by friendly fire) and 2 unnamed Cultists

Owen: 1 unnamed Cultist

Ros: 1 unnamed Cultist

Sausage: At least 2 (possibly 4 or 5?), all unnamed soldiers

Scott: 2.5, all Cultists

Seapeekay: 2, incl. Nocturnus and 1 unnamed Cultist

Shelby: 1 Cultist

Shep: 6.5+, incl. unnamed persons*, p!Will* (only 0.5 because the Cultists dealt the final blow), and 5 unnamed Cultists

Water: 3, all unnamed Cultists

Iris, via petrification: 15* named in SMP era; not counting deaths revealed in the Final Wishes event because they're pre-SMP era

Ohca / Insane Cultist: 5 named

Other unnamed Cultists: 1 named

Ivy: 2 named, specifically Aimsey* and Iris

Nocturnus and Eclipsa: presumably 1* named in SMP era; not counting the ~891 backstory deaths from the Golden Isle subplot*

Summary

The characters with the most known kills are Nocturnus and Eclipsa (~892), but Iris would theoretically have the most kills overall stretched out over a millennium; just because the Corruption took over some islands and settlements doesn't necessarily mean the people who lived there died to it (we need hard evidence for that, and we don't)

The only POV characters who have committed murder/manslaughter (i.e. killed outside the battlefield or captivity) are Kuervo, Shep, and Martyn, in that order in kill tally

Despite the above statement and having the most kills for a POV character, Kuervo is still sympathetic owing to the fact every named person he's killed was an autocratic tyrant

On the battlefield, the POV character with the most kills is Kyle, at 9 overall

The survivor who killed the least people is Cleo, at 0 kills; followed by Eloise (0 kills excluding bounties); then Owen (1 kill excluding bounties); then Ros (1 kill excluding bounties and finale battle Take 1)

For the above, Martyn is in that weird spot of "we don't know his whereabouts post-finale" AND he technically also only has 1 kill, but it was premeditated, even if he got the wrong target in the end (i.e. his kills were 100% premeditated)

The deceased character who killed the most people is Acho, at 6 kills, all unnamed Cultists; to note, star is also the first known POV character to get a kill during the canon era by sniping a Cultist during the Rescue Mission

I am NOT studying law for a reason LMAO

EDIT: Corrected p!Sausage's kill count because I completely forgot about his backstory when I made this post.

aaaalright let's do multiple ocs one go

Lulu verta-andersen is a magical girl(gender neutral) and xe really hates hir job. xe's 16 and completely off the shits edgy and has a sword named electus that has been passed down through family lines and becomes a different weapon depending on what kind of female hero is most popular, i.e. lulu's grandma was wonder-woman themed, and now lulu ended up a magical girl.

Emerson thenardier was my first roleplay oc and while it does show, i also love him and miss him. he was the logkeeper aboard the eve before matei filled that role (not canonically, i just made a new guy) and he's just. the most adhd child anyone's ever seen. he likes to doodle in the sides of the log much to the first mate's chagrin and is taking up woodcutting in his spare time.

Ola vanadís is... well, on my friend cj's blog they just answered an ask about kanis e altiora? and how he tried to convince his archnemesis to co-parent his adopted child? yeah, ola is that arch-nemesis. she's a demigod, the granddaughter of freyja, and practices seiðr. he also thought it was really funny when kane asked him to co-parent and also he said yes. this is him both with and without his mcr battle makeup.

thank you for asking and so sorry for all the long images!

It’s fun that Mr.Newman used the same journal from when he was recording a voyage as a first mate to when he’s writing in it as captain of his own ship because you can see the shift in how candid he gets that’s obscured in a more official log.

As first mate of the Bowditch he was dutifully filling it out every day and was largely unsentimental and down to business in how he relayed info, as logkeepers tend to be:

[ID: Excerpt from an 1850s whaling journal]

”Wednesday October the 15th. Commences with a light breeze from the SE with fine weather, the ship by the wind with all sail set leading ENE, the middle and latter part Brisk breezes and fair Weather, at 11am furled the main Royal, the watch Employed variously Employed, lat 32,,41 North, Long 165,,25 West.”

VS when he’s seemingly using it more infrequently as a personal journal when he’s captain of the Covington (and presumably has his first mate keeping the more official log):

[ID: another excerpt from that same journal]

“July the 4th 1776 [*it’s 1853], the first A light breeze from the South with A thick fog at 12am the fog cleared off and saw Whales plenty lowered the Boats and chased them untill 7PM when it came on foggy again. The Whales very Shy. I wish they could celebrate the 4th and all get gloryously Drunk & then I would walk in for about 4 of them [rude!]

July the 5th fresh breezes from the South attended with rain & thick fog. of all of my hard luck this beats all. it is now nearly two Months since we have been near A Whale. I Wish I could see my Dear Abby and Children to night. I don’t think I should leave them again untill my spirits were more Bouyant than they are at preasant.”

langlog day 3

BUSY!!!! i had work all day and looked at possible master programmes. i narrowed it down to four options so thats cool. i did read an article in swedish just bc of having to post abt it so at least this logkeeping is working. didnt do a lot of other stuff in languages bc i was so busy and now im super tired after work so ill go to bed early

jag är trött lmao

Subnautica AU: As more of the crew gets rescued from the depths, the crew member that makes everyone excited is none other than the ships chief of security, Kagami. When she gets brought to the base, things start to get organized. Guard Patrols are scheduled, below the surface cameras are installed, Marinette finally gets a steady caffeine supply, and the crew’s cartographer/logkeeper, Alya Césaire, lets out a window rattling cheer at the rescue of her girlfriend.

Awh!

oh boy its alter time

Pollywagon:

don’t make fun of the name, she chose it herself. Actually do whatever you want she deadass doesnt care. she came into my life in 2019. shes four years old and loves pink frilly things and also rocks and bugs. She’s a tomboy-girly girl and is the one who ignores the abuse.

Arsenal:

It takes literally everything to keep him from being the front like. please dont kill my dad i know hes a terrible person but. please. he likes jellybeans for some ungodly reason and is 19. He’s like my older brother and hes pretty rad tbh

Cody:

i dont even no if their even still alive but cody is like. sweet quiet asian with glasses. she likes silver and big sweaters and writes a lot and its really annoying cause then i have to erase all the stuff in it that might make my dad angry. Theyre the resident logkeeper who writes the abuse down and goes by she/they

📜 on their pov on sharlayan ; 📜 their pov on allagan tech; 📜 their eating habits; 📜 a scar/injury they experienced while on the field

rubs hands, a lot to talk about here >:) thank you for the ask!

Send in 📜 to get a random fun fact | open

📜 on their pov on sharlayan

Four has had very little to do with Sharlayan in general. They travel constantly, but stick to Eorzea, parts of Gyr Abania affected by Garleans, and the Garlean Empire. As a result, they actually know quite little about the nation - from firsthand experience, at least. 

As for what they think about it - Four has considered going there once or twice. They’re fascinated to see what such a politically neutral country might look like, especially one that had managed to escape the grasp of the Garleans. They aren’t particularly interested in any ‘scholarly’ sort of topics in the realm of science, but they’d want to see if the Sharlayans have a detailed account of the history of Ala Mhigo (recording and remembering what happened to Gyr Abania is very important to Four), and perhaps poke around for some magical knowledge to add to their unique mishmash of spellcasting techniques.

📜 their pov on allagan tech

Initially, very much hated. They wanted to erase everything Garleans had done, and the research the empire had done on Allagan technology for warfare use was enough to make Four despise seeing any new types of technology.

Over time, however, as they started working for the Ala Mhigan resistance, they began learning about technology from Garlond Ironworks and a fascination with it bloomed. As a comfort, Four started teaching themself how to disable machines and things such as listening devices, break digital locks, and overall became rather competent in cleanly disabling nearly any form of electrical device. 

Their knowledge of how to do this, as well as knowing information relating to Allagan (and Garlean) tech that could rival that of a Garlean citizen reasonably educated on the empire’s technology, was one thing that caught the eye of the spy branch and was a factor in deciding to hire Four. 

Now, they have an Allagan node as a pet logkeeper that was confiscated from a Garlean outpost, though the core was replaced by a mammet heart as part of a side project between them and a few friends from Garlond Ironworks.

📜 their eating habits

You’ll never see them eat while in their mask. For one, they’re concerned about being poisoned, as their uniform while just hanging around in the reach is enough to recognize them as a spy. Maybe, maybe, they’d be willing to drink through a hole in their mask with a straw lol, but then again, there’s the paranoia of being poison, even if it isn’t a fully reasonable fear. They don’t know if there are spies from the other side that know about their persona they keep in military areas.

Outside of their uniform and mask, however, there’s no way you’d know it’s “Gryphon-Four”, so they eat normally enough out in public or at home. They have just enough table manners when others are around to not look gross, at least.

📜 a scar/injury they experienced while on the field

They do a really really good job of hiding this now, you’d never notice when they’re wearing gloves, but their left pinky was cut off when they were still just a young teenager. Their home was brought under brutal Garlean rule for a period of time. There was far too little food to go around for everyone, always taken by soldiers as a tax to leave the bare minimum to survive, or even less. Desperate times called for desperate measures, they attempted to steal back some food before the soldiers left their town, and they were caught. It was pure luck they weren’t hurt worse or killed, the soldiers only cutting off a finger to set an example to the rest of their community for what would happen in case of defiance.

I loved the zombie apocalypse ask! How would the nordics survive one?

Norway:-Logkeeper of the group, he keeps track of where they have been and what they have gone through-Serves as logical adviser, reminds the group that they can’t save everyone all the time-Also keeps tabs on inventory and supplies

Iceland:-Works sometimes as a scout-Tries to provide comedic relief-Mostly sticks to being to lookout

Finland:-Group medic-Serves as the group chef and botanist -Tries to keep everyone’s morale up 

Sweden:-Is the group navigator and plans every route-Master of repairs and settlement building-Makes traps to protect his group

Denmark:-Has served as a raider for the group before-Communicates with other passing groups-Works on repairs with Berwald and manages the weapons

A small continuation from the previous weapon sheet, this time focusing on Aurelie's own weapons she possesses. Just below is some backstory and info about the individual weapons above, ^_^ ~Artacios and Dirahm~ After Aurelie led a detachment of the Tyrith guard in rescuing the Dwarven and Elven ambassadors from an attempted coup with a heavy cost to her men, The Dwarven Guild and the Elvish Province formed an alliance with the Kingdom of Tyrith, partly in honor of the sacrifice Aurelie's men made to ensure the peace treaty was signed as well as protecting innumerable elven citizens from the coup's onslaught. The alliance fostered a sharing of cultural customs as well as acess between the three to knowledge and resources that was once kept from each other. As a result, Tyrith received new technological development and magic knowledge from the Guild and Province, The Dwarven Guild and the Elven Province has access to trading routes and ports belonging to Tyrith, and the three can send forces and resources to assist one another in times of crisis. Another unusual outcome of the diplomatic mission was the amount of respect that the guard, and especially Aurelie, would receive having held off over 400 turncoats with just sixty men. The Dwarven ambassador in particular made a vow to allow scientific collaboration between the three factions, something unheard of in centuries, so that the guard would not have to suffer such an immense loss of men. This vow included brand new rifles and armor for the Tyrith guard and army. Aurelie in particular would be given special attention in that she would be given two very special swords as gratitude for her role in the rescue as well as to replace her original sword which was shattered in the battle. The two swords would be Artacios and Dirahm, sister swords that were forged together by the first collaboration between elves and dwarves in centuries. Artacios and Dirahm are swords especially crafted with the best aspects of both races formed together; the legendary strength and durability of the dwarven forges and the unparalleled swiftness and cutting power of the Elvish kilns all mixed into two swords. The swords, though sharing similar backgrounds, are also very unique from each other in order to serve different functions, but altogether form a deadly weapon pair. Artacios is a hand and a half sword crafted to be remarkably agile and quick to allow a skilled user to attack hidden or open weak points in an opponents defense through long reaching flurries of strikes. This versatility is emphasized by the intense sharpness of the the blade, which is so sharp that it could cut cleanly through a thick gnarled tree trunks with ease with one powerful swing. The blade, despite it increbile lightness, is also incredibly durable against attacks and will never dull. Because of this and it's swiftness Artacios can deflect or parry any strikes in the hands of a skilled swordsman. Dirahm is a knightly sword designed for the exact opposite of Artacios. It can be quick, but it's strength lies in the sheer raw power it can unleash with a strike; cleaving all but the thickest steel plate armor with ease. With hacking and slashing as it's primary form of attack, Dirahm can be more accurately described as an axe in sword form, due to the point of the blade being weighted, allowing a user to use the kinetic energy and momentum of weighted point to hack apart anything that Artactios can't cut cleanly. Another attribute the sword has is that because the blade is weighted on one end, the sword can be thrown with decent accuracy and power as a last ditch-maneuver. The two sister swords, although both unique share one very important trait, they are magically endowed with a powerful enchantment. Anyone pure of heart can pick up the swords, but the swords and their sheaths are enchanted so that only Aurelie herself can draw the swords from their sheaths and wield them against an opponent. The blades also were enchanted so that they can never cut an innocent. Should anyone try to pick up the swords for malicious use their hands will be severely burned and branded by the weapons even if they were in their sheaths. Aurelie was entrusted with these powerful swords because of her character and valor she displayed in the diplomatic mission. The sister swords served and reminded Aurelie of her duties as a protector of the innocent. ~Aurelie's Carbine "Sunderheart"~ Because of the new boost in relationship between the Kingdom of Tyrith and the Dwarven guild, The Royal guard had access to better rifles such as the Fenrir rifle. In the development of the Fenrir rifle Aurelie, as an advisor, personally commissioned the first carbine variant of the standard rifle with personal improvements and touches based on her recommendations. She christened the rifle "Sunderheart" due it's ability to hit split apart the heart of a creature with ease. The rifle was the one the first Fenrir carbine made by the Dwarven guild, and the first to be commissioned specifically for personal taste. As an already good design, the carbine was improved even further with recommendations made by Aurelie based on her experience with the obsolete Galesse rifle. Some of the improvements included a reinforced breechlock and hammer to withstand full powered cartridges in a smaller frame, a slightly longer 24-in. reinforced octogonal barrel, polygonal rifling for better pressure seal and accuracy when firing, enlarged trigger guard, and lighter trigger pull, improved notch sights, upper walnut handguard to prevent burns from a hot barrel, and checkered and recessed grips for stronger and more secure handling. Aurelie rarely uses Sunderheart, only taking it with her on personal assignments or when she requires huge firepower and range for extremely dangerous situations that her usual Longbow can't provide. However, she practices plenty with it and is a crackshot with it. ~Laminated longbow~ Probably the only ranged weapon besides the crossbow that is significantly older than Aurelie, the Tyrith bow is a laminated Longbow that utilizes several woods with favoring characteristics such as tension and compreession layered together to make an incredibly strong and powerful longbow.  Aurelie tends to favor using the bow over a rifle in a city due to it's fast firing speed and versatility, as well as being quiet enough to not leave a crowd in a panic during a chase or arrest. ~The Blade of the First Captain~ An ancient weapon by all rights, the sword was the weapon of the first captain of the guard of Tyrith, an origin that is well over 700 years before Aurelie's time. Having passed through 16 captains in the centuries, the blade has been used in innumerable conflicts and has been at almost every single significant events that has happened in the kingdom. A one-handed sword, the sword was once mated with a shield, but the shield was destroyed and lost in a battle some 600 years before the present. It was also during this battle that the sword would no longer become effective as a weapon when in the hands of the 4th captain it blocked several earth-shattering blows from a bandit chieftain battleaxe, nearly cutting the blade in half but saving the then king of Tyrith. After this the sword came to represent what the Captain of the Guard, and by extension the Royal Guard, stands for: to protect the royal family and innocents and to persevere in that duty. Ever since the battle the sword would become less of a weapon, but a badge of office and authority of the Captain, being used to legitimize and knight the sucessor as the next Captain by authority of the Roayal family. Aurelie's responsibilities for the blade included maintenance and safekeeping, logkeeping and historical archiving of the sword's condition and use, and the knighting of a sucessor should the time comes to pass the mantle. The sword is practically sacred to Aurelie as it represents a large part of her identity, but at times she feels reluctant to be it's keeper due to having such an integral part of the kingdom's history. However like the sword during it's final battle, she will dutifully fufill the responsibilities required of her in safekeeping the blade. ~Papa's Throwing knife~ One of Aurelie's most prized possession and something she always carry around with her, Aurelie's knife was the first weapon ever given to her by her father. After the incident where a bandit cut a large scar into her face, Aurelie was given a knife from her father when she started to play around with wooden swords. He explained to her that the knife was an heirloom passed down from his father, and now belonged to her so she can defend herself. He also told her that she must not use the knife for the sole purpose of killing, but only in defense and utility. Afterwards He taught her how to use it for almost everything, from whittling wood to throwing it accurately and precisely at a tree stump 16 yards away. Even after becoming Captain of the Guard, Aurelie always carried with her this knife as a fond reminder of her papa and the lessons taught by him. Thanks about it! Hope you liked it!

Revolutionizing Fleet Management: The Power of Electronic Logging Systems (ELS)

 In the ever-evolving landscape of transportation, the adoption of technology has become paramount, especially with Electronic Logging Systems (ELS) leading the way. This blog will delve into the significance of ELS, its impact on the trucking industry, and how ELDMANDATE stands out as a reliable partner in achieving seamless compliance and operational efficiency.

Understanding Electronic Logging Systems (ELS):

Defining ELS:
