Free Happy & Blessed
For the past years, I have been working on these three books together; The most complicated part is to translate every old & new notebooks from Spanish, Portuguese, and Wayuú. Trying to keep the sense without disrespecting our traditions and Secrecy.
Today, I can officially just confirm I have over 76000 words written for my book focused on a very specific branch of Traditions on Native & South American Magic, and, in all honesty, they were really good words; I'm happy, and now I just need some orange/mint tea to recharge

2/16/24 — Open 6-9p. Mask recommended. No open drinks, please.
New Fantastic Four promo steeped in MCM trappings suggest a '60s setting for the July '25 film. The LIFE mag in Ben Grimm's hands seems to be 12/13/63, but at a Valentine's Day party, so, at least 2 months old when he's reading it.
A better cover choice for the FF might have been the 10/4/63 DNA cover.
Found both in my recent work pile.

                    “ you’re wearing it, “ domnall remarked, eyeing the pendant around her neck, one he’d quietly bought off a merchant in orzammar while pawning off less valuable items. morrigan didn’t strike him as a woman of sentiment, so instead he had offered it with the same attention he’d give loot plundered from the dead who no longer had use for it. 
                    it was no secret he found her abrasiveness charming in its own right, so the light mocking he received when offering the gift was accepted humbly and with a touch of honor. to see her now wearing it brought dom a swell of pride and accomplishment in his chest that he kept controlled, masked by a cool smile and calm tone. could his light flirtations with the witch be bearing fruit?
                    “ it suits you, “ he added with the knowledge that his approval likely meant little to her, but wanting it known regardless.

Halcyon Druid (Druid Archetype)
Tumblr media
(art by Zummeng on DeviantArt)
Easily one of my favorite goodly organizations in the Lost Omens setting is the Magaambya school of magic. Founded by the man who singlehandedly saved arcane magic for humanity, Oldmage Jatembe’s school of magic is the very picture of a place where the mystic arts are paired together with a righteous code of ethics and goodness.
But that isn’t the only thing that is combined there in that sacred institute, for the school is also famous for blending the arcane and divine, with many of it’s mages being able to cast druidic primal magics in addition to their arcane arts.
However, Magaambya does not merely teach the arcane arts with a smattering of the divine, they actually teach all manner of disciplines, so it only makes sense that there would also be druids that learn a bit of the arcane.
These so-called halcyon druids not only learn a few arcane spells, but they also do something very atypical for primal mages: they seek out contact with outsiders of the outer sphere, particularly celestials, and especially the animal-like agathions!
The only other druid archetype I can think of that deals with non-elemental outsiders regularly is the planar extremist, and that’s the ex-druid archetype representing those that have gone too far away from their roots and become servants of the planes rather than nature, so in order to truck with such beings while still being true druids, these mystics must be doing something very right compared to others.
As we will soon see, these mystics gain a mixture of powerful abilities from their primal, arcane, and divine sources.
Rather than form a bond to an aspect of nature or a companion, these druids instead bond with their mask, which then functions similar to a wizard’s bonded item, and can be similarly enchanted.
They are also trained diplomats, all the better to go between villages and nations to forge new bonds of cooperation and kinship.
In keeping with the blending of magical traditions, these mages can spontaneously cast spells associated with the cleric domain of Good instead of summoning allies.
They also learn a handful of spells exclusive to the arcane arts, diversifying their magecraft further.
As agents of good, these mages are especially resistant to the depredations of fiendish foes.
Finally, these mystics gain the ability to shapeshift into a form of celestial outsider based on their mask. While this is not a true outsider polymorph effect, it has the limited ability to mimic some of the iconic abilities of the major celestial types, such as the aura of menace seen in archons.
This archetype is interesting. It gets rid of wild shape and the nature bond, but replaces them with surprising spell versatility and their very own bonded item, as well as making them experts in social areas. These changes mean that you’re pretty much limited to being a back line spellcaster unless you utilize lots of buffs or use the celestial transformation from your mid-levels, but it still can be rewarding to play.
Interestingly, this archetype mentions that some members of this order wear masks resembling fiends rather than celestials, though those that do are probably more akin to gargoyles, acting as representatives of what evil looks like rather than being evil themselves. However, there is always the possibility of perhaps some disgruntled ex-student actually making pacts with fiends.
Ogwe the Crocodile is especially daring among his kin, but that boldness has led to surprising alliances in the past. Now the druid seeks perhaps his most shocking diplomatic endeavor yet: delving into the earth beneath the region to meet with a mighty vault builder, one of the legendary xiomorns, to secure peaceful relations.
Though sometimes mistaken for a rakshasa, Veldikas is every bit a mystical dilletante and social navigator. However, his true loyalties always lie with the natural world, and the fanglord beastkin wears the face of the tiger both in and out of his sacred mask, especially when the time comes to act.
For generations, the angelic mask of her ancestor has watched over Kifi’s home, protecting it. Turns out this was more than superstition, for the day the mask was stolen, her village was attacked. Though she managed to get the mask back, she discovered a divine spirit dwelling within, one that urges her to seek out the mentor that trained their ancestor so long ago.

(pretend this is also from morrigan) love
letter prompts | @loerchik / @oldmagics
an envelope placed conspicuously with her makeup, seemingly left in the night to be discovered during her morning routine. on one side facing up is her name, penned in a subdued and legible cursive script in ebony ink. azure wax seals the other side shut, stamped into it the image of two sprigs of laurel, the cousland family crest, perfectly matching the size of domnall's signet ring. inside is two filled pages of parchment, single-sided, folded neatly with obvious care.
My love,
You and I will always jump on the opportunity to tease and belittle the other for showing affection, a back-and-forth that I never see myself tiring of. I have, however, come to a conclusion in my sleepless thinking, which is that we do so because the expression of our feelings will always feel foreign and undeserved by our very natures, no matter how much it surrounds us both. It makes sense that we mock that which we know is true but don't wholly understand - we fell in love in a tumultuous and uncertain time, young and blind to the consequences and meaning of our connection. We have, both of us, acted distant and even cruelly to one another in our confusion, the newness of caring for something beyond ourselves. I'm thankful for our growth this past decade, where we no longer want to deny our affection, but will happily continue to jeer as if we are still too young and prideful to acknowledge the promises we've already made to one another.
Given my habit of speaking too much, it may shock you to know that I withhold my thoughts often, and watching you sleep has made me a touch sentimental. Therefore, I have decided to put my feelings to paper for you, so that they never need be spoken aloud and ridiculed, but you may know the extent of them. You are, as always, free to take the piss out of me for daring to writing you a love letter, but you won't be able to deny its contents.
For so long I recoiled from the idea of ever being shouldered with the responsibility of fatherhood, for fear of plaguing something precious with my habit of mistakes. That said, meeting Kieran is the single greatest joy I've felt since as long as I can remember. It's a credit to your strengths as a mother that he is as intelligent, well-adjusted and good-mannered as he turned out to be. You needn't doubt your parental capabilities, because he is the undeniable proof of it. Getting to know him, growing close with him, has come so easily that I'd believe I've known him for years. He is my son, and I can only see myself loving and protecting him with my life from here on out.
I know that you still hold guilt for keeping me and him separate. My only wish is that you wouldn't place the blame solely on yourself any longer, especially when my own complacency caused me to feel similarly all these years. We both carry many regrets with us; it comes with the lives we've led up until this point. It was a time when we each had our paths chosen for us - for me it was the Wardens, and you for it was Flemeth. Now, our only path is one we've forged together, to free ourselves of both. I cannot bring myself to care about past mistakes when our future only holds promise of our new lives together, untethered to anything but our own whims and our devotion to this family we've made together.
As for us, you and I may not be married in the Maker's eyes or even by law, but we never cared for the opinion of either; what we know to be real is all that ever mattered between us, and this makes our love feel all the more unique. In my eyes, and perhaps because of my upbringing, I consider you my wife; not because I believe you to be my possession in the traditional sense, or existing for my own personal fulfillment, but because you are my life partner, the woman I care about without equal. My "vow" to you, so to speak, is that I will love you until my dying breath, whether that be tomorrow or when we are old and grey. I vow to remain by your side through all change the world undergoes and all catastrophe that may arise, always prepared to defend all that we hold dear.
Now you've read this letter and know my heart fully, more than anyone ever has. There was a time where that would have frightened me to no end, but if my years alone have taught me anything, it's that the only fate worse than your scorn is your absence. 
I love you. Thank you for re-entering my life. Thank you for being an incredible mother to our son. And thank you for loving me, as flawed a man as I know myself to be. You have all my trust, all my devotion, all of me.
Yours always,
D.

More oldMage!Viktor AU doodles!!!
Baby Jayce would just literally be so excited to talk to Viktor and ramble about rocks. He was not as obsessed with them yet as he gets after his mage experience but he is already a sucker for rocks anyway.
Viktor just sits there, listens to this adorable boy version of his old partner and answers most (MOST) of his questions. He really enjoys the innocent mind of him, but he figures Jayce kept that for long enough, he still sounded like that boy in his mid 20s.
When Jayce comes home, he tells his mom everything about the guy who saved them and that he was allowed to hold his stick and that they are partners now and she is ready to call the enforcers, fr.
