Can't read RAS' stuff, honestly. It looks like the dude doesn't know the basic principles behind creative writing, how the brain creates models of the stuff it reads. The result is that he tells even while trying to show, that concepts like the character filter are entirely alien to his writing, tha...

This game has an *incredible* OST.

The official translation is out, it says: Eilistraee teaches us that we are not bound by the circumstances of our birth. We all may find beauty and light, if we have the courage to seek them. Here's the bigger resolution of the art. https://pbs.twimg.com/media/E5Eb15VVIAEKcW5?format=jpg&name=lar...

Yeah, but what matters is that WotC is acknowledging it. They're pushing for all IPs being connected (look at all the MtG D&D settings) and on the same page, if the MtG team includes Eilistraee and Trelasarra, then it likely means that the D&D team won't do away with them.

So, there's an upcoming Forgotten Realms-inspired Magic card set, and a new priestess of Eilistraee, that Ed introduced in 2020, will be featured on one card. The card was leaked by a Chinese site: https://nga.178.com/read.php?tid=27393745&rand=432 The flavor text reads: Eilistraee has taught us...

Thanks a lot Shir'le, it warms my heart that you still look after this place, even if it's just the few of us

It isn't weird. Gender-fluidity is a thing, so wanting to be able to transition at will surely isn't incomprehensible. I also think that being able to spend time transitioned can help men empathize more with women, and vice-versa. But for me, if I was offered a changedance, I think I'd take it and n...

I agree entirely. Eilistraee canonically has a soft spot for outcasts, after all. She's a goddess that welcomes marginalized people and makes them feel at home.

As perhaps you will remember, the Changedance was a ritual that aspiring male priests of Eilistraee had to undergo in order to complete their training. Due to Eilistraee's nature being tied to motherhood, the difficulty to make male priests, and for male priests to fully cleave to Eilistraee, was ov...

A beautiful soundtrack by Hiroyuki Sawano.

Wow, I could feel his voice reverberating in my head and even behind my sternum, heh. He's pretty amazing.

It was nice to actually get to hear Ed say Eilistraee's name so many time, but is it just me or is he pronouncing her name as ILL-iss-Tray-ee because that is what it sounds like he is pronouncing it as to me. Kind of wish he did mentioned some more concert plans for her and her faithful in the clos...

It'll be late here, so I won't be able to watch the livestream, but I'll definitely check it out later on. Thanks for sharing, Eric!

Isolation can be difficult, even as someone who generally enjoys being alone, especially when people you care about risk falling into depression because of this. May 2021 make all people more united, and more empathetic towards each other. And may Eilistraee help us heal all that was broken, and fin...

Happy Holidays to you all as well. And if your year wasn't the best, may your future be filled with beauty.
