    Wulfsbane the Twitch Stremma'

    in Let's Plays and Video Based Video Game Content

    Posted

    So I have my own Twitch Channel. It's BenWulfsbane. I cant use the Wulfsbane name because I made the channel almost 2 years ago and Twitch doesnt allow you to change your names.... for some reason. They allowed name changes as of this year.

     

    Anyways, I try to stream when I can. I mostly play OverWatch and Destiny on there. Sometimes I play Battlefield. I'm thinking of doing a charity stream soon.

     

    So here's my channel and hopefully you give me a follow and watch the streams.

    D&D: The Qadesh Conspiracy (Group One.)

    in Tabletop RPGs

    Posted

    Standing at the bow of the ship, Hennethwen Lakhadra gazed into the distance of the vast blue seas, touched by the lightning, while reaching for a book in her sack on her back. She opened the book and turned it into the front few pages, reading over what her assignment was in Qadesh. Hennthwen scanned over the page several times before closing her book and putting it back in her sack. Soon she turned back to the ship and walked to the stern of the ship, keeping her balances as the ship rolled with the storm. She climbed up the stairs, almost losing her balance on the 3rd step, and turned to the captain.

    "Revered Mother Claria was right: this was the best ship to Qadesh." She turned to face the rest of the crew who were carrying out their duties. "You run a strong, confident crew. The heavens will surely reward you, the crew and the ship upon completion of this journey, weather and all." She turns back to the captain, "You need to drop that 'stern' expression though." She laughs at her bad pun then realized that no one else was laughing and slowly slouched into her armor.

    -

     Atop the upper deck stood five men, three common swarthy-skined sail-hands that upkept the joists, knots, and grunt work from aft to stern. The other two were  in blue and gold frock coats. One a slender man with a ruddy-blond hair set with a pony-tail under his tree-pointed hat. The man was fooling around with a scuffed up old telecope, polishing its lens clean as to see the coast. The other, the captain, his silver hair cropped close to his head and slicked back, was at the helm with an indeed a stern expression. Seeing that his gaze was unflinching as stone, signified to  Hennethwenn that this may not be the time for jokes.

     "You are up early, Milady," the man said. "Tell me, are you always this...chipper...when rollin' out of bed?"

    The young first mate plugged the telescope to his eye, scanning the horizon. "Our sister ship is a good four hundred podiles off the portbow." He said in a listless, half-awake tone. "Ay...though captain, still don't see this famous lighthouse all the men've been chewin' off tales about..." 

     "Ending a sentence in a preposition, not very apt for an officer, mister O'wyn. Fit your rank, son. You are in the prescence of a initiate of a very respectable order..."

    The young man jerked up straight and thumped his right fist against the left side of his chest in a salute. "My apologizes, Milady."

    -

    "Usually I am, It's always going to be a good day!" Hennethwen cheerful said. "And dont worry about your officer here, he meant no disrespect."

    "Again," O'Wyn insisted, "I'm..."

     She turned to face the officer. "Dont worry about it, but just be wary of your words, ending sentences in prepositions is a bad habit to form." Hennethwen walked gingerly to the aft of the ship to appreciate  the distance of their trek. "How many more days at sea, sir?" She bellowed over the wind. "I thought we would have arrived by now but I never expected this storm to hit!"

    "It should be today, Milady!" The man bellowed back from a far. "The sun will break the dawn soon enough. Hopefully will see land soon, despite the weather. Perhaps you would do us a favor and take to the mast! Perhaps you can see something we don't."

     [If you go up there make a wisdom (perception) check.]

    -

    "Indeed I will, A little climbing wouldnt hurt." Hennethwen walked down the stairs and strolled on over towards the mast and began to climb up the netting of the mast that leads to the Crow's Nest. It was a rather difficult climb as she had to anticipate the roll of the ship but she made it nevertheless.

    [Rolled a 15+1=16]

    Gripping the netting of the rope tightly she reached a free hand to the crowsnest, railing. Lifting into the Crowsnest, she looked out into the frothy and vague blackness of the ocean night, the only illumination the faint silver sparkle of the reflecting half-moon. She was greeted by a brisk chilly wind which mingled with the hot, humid air with a swirl, tossing her hair. Before she could accoust herself with the surrounding darkness, there was bright seering blue flash. She was forced to half-squint, yet used the light to get advantage as illuminated the jagged coasts in the distance. There she spied two ambiguous figures staring back at the ship, one tall and broad, the other hunched over. As soon as the flash came it faltered back into darkness, leaving the two people once more unseen. Yet then another light pierced the darkness, warm firelight, then another, and then another in the bottom corner of her eye. All of the lights came danced back and forth in direction of their sister ship.

    --

    "LAND HO!" She yelled down to the captain. She checked back towards the coast. "WE'RE OFF COURSE, I DONT SEE THE PORT!" She looked back in the direction of where the two figures were. "Who, or what, were those figures... we could be in danger."

    -

    O'wyn shouted back as if to keep her in ear-shot. "She's right Captain! I don't see anything but...but... cliffs!"

    "Details, Mister O'wyn." The captain gruffly insisted. "Is there anywhere toss felt run aground if need be? This ol' sloop can handle the shallows. Our friends aboard the Galen...aye, that's a whole different animal, it is."

    Thunder rumbled and Hennethwhen could feel a drizzle tap against her armor. A storm was brewing and they were heading in the wrong direction, towards a rocky coast with crags that scrape the two ships hull as easy as a steel knife could whittle yew. The paladin knew this could not be the fate of the adjacent ship or its escourt alike. People were counting on the supplies the Galen had loaded in its belly and there were innocent passengers aboard the other ship as well. Still both it and the Sabre were still at full sail, and the wind was picking up... They would only be moving faster any minute now.

    [White or Black?]

    ---

    [White]

    "We got a Storm brewing as well!" She observed the coast for a suitable landing spot. "We have crags that would tear this ship to shreds. We're going the wrong way!"

     She heard the quick clatter of boot-steps, then a crash if thunder of set by the jingle of a warning bell. "All hands on deck! Set the sails at half-mast!" She heard him roar over the waves. "We need to warn The Galen! Lady Hennethwhen, I must help with the sails - if the wind turns into a gale full-sail, we will be dashed across the rocks faster than our friend's to our port." 

     "Captain!" The paladin spied young O'wyn, clutching to his hat in the brine-misted wind. "The signal lamps! One of them is gone!"

    "Heaven asunder!" Cursed the Captain as he tugged on a rope with some of his men to furl a wind-swept sail.  Dammit boy, then find them! Lady Hennethwheen will go with you!"  

    [White or black.]

    ---

    [Black, Perception check [Rolled a 18+1] to use my location to look for the lamp on deck. If I see it I will point it out/go down to help out. If not I will go down to look or go below deck to find it]

    "Wait, I see some boats leaving the Galen! We might be getting attacked!" Hennethwen looks around and begins to descend back to the deck to find the lamps and notices a woman in green and yellow robes run into the galley of the Galen. Just as the elf's boots hoped down on the deck she heard a choking, spluttering shout close to one of the masts. It was a stifled sound, one shut up surely by an unseen force. With that acknowledgment came a faint hissing grouse. "Quiet you...move dat jawl an' I'll damn well rip it off, I will...Some keep that sail full..."

    Hennethwen turned to the sound of the hissing and investigates the threat [rolled a 15, no bonus]. She kept quiet until she could full gauge the situation and assess what to do next, goal being to save the chocking crewmen.

    It should have been morrowind or oblivion, skyrim is still good now.

    Todd Howard wanted to do Oblivion as well but the assets needed to remaster Oblivion werent there and they would have to move everything onto the new engines and he wasnt sure how well everything would translate over. Plus they said they are working on 2-3 new projects as well so they were stretched thin. Reason why they are doing Skyrim was because it was used as a technical exercise they did to test out the X1 to see what the Next Gen consoles could do so it was essentially already ready to go.

    And to be honest, I didnt like Oblivion. But I attribute that to the fact that Skyrim was my first Elder Scrolls game and I think that kinda ruined it for me

    Archie Sonic News: Corporate Warfare

    in Archie Sonic Spot

    Posted

    TSSZ News has recieved several tips about this new lawsuit filed agaisnt Archie Comics & Sega. The plantiff is former Archie Sonic employee Scott Fulop who now works for Narrative Ark Entertainment. The Documents cite 6 counts of illegal activities by Archie Comics and SEGA, of which includes copyright infringement, violations of the Lanham Act, deceptive practices, unjust enrichment, and more. Fulop is apparently citing infringement on Sonic comics spanning from 1996-2012, and claiming republished and original work going up to 2009.  There are 953 cited examples of alleged copyright infringement in comics, printed and digital. This includes 441 alleged infringements over 348 re-releases of the main Sonic comic series. Under normal circumstances, the Statue of Limitations would have passed, as of August of 2015. However, since Archie has been re-releasing old issues via digital means, the statue is no longer active and Fulop is able to sue. Fulop, like Penders before him, secured the copyrights to many characters (such as Mammouth Mogul and Merlin Prower), story-lines, and artwork he allegedly created while working for the Sonic comics. He is seeking back-payments and royalties for these issues and even tried settleing with Archie in 2015. Speaking of Penders, according to his twitter page, he is not involved but he believes he will be called to testify to the court.

     

    Fulop’s attorney is Neil Burstein, who is high-profile and has several top-tier IP and entertainment clients. This is very bad news for Archie and Sega. His clients include movie actors, best selling authors, and video producers just to name a few. Some select testimonials show high praise for Burstein too. If he is apart of Fulop's legal team then he's going for it all and this could spell the beginning of the end of Archie Sonic. Fulop is demanding a trial by jury as well which also might not help with this case either.

    As it stands, this isnt looking good. We could be witnessing the start of the event that could end Archie Sonic, even Archie Comics itself. And if Archie Sonic goes, The Scribes will lead the charge to bring home for SatAM, Archie Sonic of old and the Freedom Fighters. Stay with us as this story develops.

    Nice. :)

    About the DA page, though. I WOULD have put my stuff on there, but it's not showing me the option, there's no button to add stuff to the group or anytihng. I guess I just don't have the proper clearances or something.

    Whoops. That might have been my bad. I can fix it tonight
