Started a Daggerheart campaign in the setting inspired by Delicious In Dungeon. This is Andy (short for Jörmundgandrew). He's the dish washer at a fantasy restaurant. When sent out by the fancy chef in charge to buy "spices" he got a bottle of hot sauce so strong a sample made him immediately vomit.

I don't think the driver they assigned to this is going to make it in time @dominos-pizza.bsky.social

We're still missing part of the puzzle though

Pictures of Steve Martin and Martin Short, with a third blank space with a question mark in the middle of it labeled "Short Steve"

I think we might be on to something big here

A triangular diagram superimposed over a circular medieval alchemical symbol. The top point of the triangle is labeled "LIME", the bottom left point is labeled "KEY", and the bottom right point is labeled "STONE". Halfway between KEY and LIME there is a picture of a Key Lime. Halfway between LIME and STONE there is a picture of some Limestone. Halfway between KEY and STONE there is a picture of a stone arch with a Keystone.

Makeup Eyebrows work, but I wish Highlander Eyebrows were a toggle in the additional facial features sections since there are other makeup options I feel would fit my WoL's vibe, like the one that would leave his face streaked with dirt.

Want to see something cool? I ran across a guy who makes custom photos of your FFXIV characters and got my two main characters, Siege and Eris, in a badass battle pose. This was put together by www.tumblr.com/johnnylandsl...

Two player-made characters from the video game Final Fantasy 14. Captain Siege Zabac is a large muscular bearded man with an eyepatch wielding a sword that looks like a shark, in a defensive posture in front of the witch Eris Donovan who is a red haired woman in a black dress with glasses and a high ponytail, smiling confidently and holding a staff as if she's about to cast a magic spell. A tiny land shark with adorable stubby little legs named The Major-General is leaping between them like he's also preparing to attack whoever Siege is defending Eris against, while a bat named Nosferatu whose wing structure and coloration resembles an opera cloak flaps at Eris's side.

Have a marginally less shit Otto while I figure out stylus sensitivity

A fantasy dwarf with a huge double-headed axe propped over his shoulder. He is filthy and his clothing is ragged and his expression is manic. He has the body proportions of an orangutan, and one look at his beady bloodshot eye is all it takes to know that his mildewy little brain has never been polluted by even a single thought.

After like a year and a half of forgetting to actively hunt (thanks ADHD), I've found a replacement stylus that will sync with my tablet! Have an inaugural King Otto the XXIX (Pan-Dimensional Omni-Temporal Highest of High Kings of All Dwarves Everywhere)

A crude pencil drawing of a fantasy dwarf with a shaggy beard. He is filthy, his clothing is ragged, and he is missing one eye and most of his teeth. One big burly arm with an anchor tattoo is visible holding an overflowing mug of beer. A word bubble extends from his mouth saying "FUCK THE POLICE!" Most importantly, I can not stress enough how shitty the drawing is.

I was telling my D&D group about a dream I once had where they added a Sex Minigame to FFXIV (I think it was technically part of the Crafting system???), and when I woke this image was the only detail I was able to seize and commit to jpg before it evaporated.

General Ran'jit from Final Fantasy 14, who is an older man but still with the physique and bearing of a warrior, with long white hair, a long mustache, and a diagonal scar down the center of his face. He is posed with one arm behind his back, the other raised with the palm up as if beckoning the viewer to approach him. A caption over his head reads "How absurd, to proclaim supremacy in the Erotic Arts... without first demonstrating mastery of the forbidden secrets of the Prostate."

Post someone you’ve been told you look like, who you definitely don’t look like

Actor Richard Karn dressed as Al Borland, his character from the 90's sitcom Home Improvement. A bearded dark-haired white man in his 30s wearing a tool belt, jeans, and a plaid shirt with the sleeves rolled up. He's leaning against the countertop on the set of the "Tool Time" show-within-a-show that his character co hosts on the sitcom. He's kind of chubby and kind of hairy, but in a way that makes people's moms swoon.

This is literally the whole reason I made Detective Columbo Lalumbo, so I could monologue at the screen like this and crack myself up.

A character from Final Fantasy 14, a Lalafell man, who are a type of tiny gnome or hobbit like people. This one has a hairstyle and outfit inspired by TV's Detective Columbo as made famous by Peter Falk - salt and pepper hair, dark expressive eyebrows, and a rumpled tan trenchcoat over a somewhat shabby suit.

GOT THE SHARK GLOVES!!! Don't worry, the Major-General is fine, sparring with Siege is part of his routine daily enrichment. Most days he gives as good as he gets, but today he was caught off balance by being punched in the face *with his own face*, and that left him vulnerable to this sweep kick.

A screenshot from Final Fantasy XIV of Captain Siege Zabac, a tall and athletic human man with dark hair, a beard, an eyepatch, and a Pirate-inspired fashion sense. He is wearing boxing gloves that look like cartoon sharks, and is in the middle of a sweep kick maneuver being executed on the Major-General Minion, a tiny walking shark that the boxing gloves are clearly modeled to resemble. The Major-General is in mid-air and tumbling backwards as if Siege's leg has just come from behind and kicked the Major-General's legs out from under him. They are fighting in a white desert and it looks like it's close to mid-day.

And if you just want to check out Mogaritaville, the tacky beachfront bar and grill that's the not-so-secret cover for the Amaranthine Maw Pirates' hideout, come on to Aether DC -> Sargatanas Server -> Mist (Limsa Lominsa) -> Ward 6 -> Plot 60. Beware that major renovations are in progress though.

If it helps you feel any better, a couple weeks ago I got this combo and I'm still pretty amused by it

My stylus is missing so have this shit-ass tribute you inspired me to create with my mouse in MSPaint

Saint Peter stands behind his podium at the gates of heaven, which rise up from a fluffy white cloud. St Peter's expression suggests confusion and mild dismay. In front of him there is a skinny kid with his t-shirt pulled up over the top of his head, and his arms raised, elbows bent at 90 degree angles, palms facing forward on either side of his head. The caption below reads "Are you threatening me??"

Best I could do for a dark place here, so this was only visible on my phone with a 10 second exposure, but still pretty cool

I think we may have figured out something *important* in my D&D game tonight, but there's still a piece of the puzzle missing. If any wealthy and eccentric seekers of truth would like to provide financial backing to our journey of cosmic enlightenment, DM me for my paypal

A chart with four boxes. The top is labeled "Boat" or "Bong", the side is labeled "Gravy" or "Gravity". The top left box has a Gravy Boat. The bottom left box has a D&D airship, a boat with a balloon attached to it. The bottom right box shows a Gravity Bong with pineapple-shaped glass. The top right box shows a question mark, because the precise description of a "Gravy Bong" remains uncertain.

My latest alt project on Dynamis DC, Halicarnassus Server: Detective Columbo Lalumbo. Thanks to all the EXP bonuses I can stack he's gone from level 1 to 33 in about 4 hours!

A Lallafel from Final Fantasy 14 dressed as Detective Columbo from the classic TV series "Columbo", in a tan trenchcoat over a rumpled suit, with messy greying hair and very bushy eyebrows. He is raising his hand with one finger extended as if to get someone's attention, and suggest that he needs to ask them "Just one more thing..."

More Rime Beetles, as my eternal work day drags on. This specimen is either hoping to test a new experimental battle spell, hoping to cover his research expenses with some light banditry, or both! Efficiency!

A picture of an anthropomorphic insect person in a vest with many pockets and other ragged clothing, holding a knife in one hand and a fireball in the other, posed as if menacing someone off-page. The caption on the drawing reads “Rime Beetles! Why clothes? 1.) Having studied the customs of their neighbors, the Rime Beetles have learned of “nudity taboos” and respect the concept in the name of cultural sensitivity/diplomacy. 2.) Rime Beetles with clothing are up to 70% less likely to be attacked as “monsters” when encountered in the wilderness. 3.) Pockets! What a great idea! Thanks, mammals! 4.) Saves me from drawing all those carapace bits.”

Here's a less horrifying picture of Siege to make up for that last one. Featuring bonus cameo from the Major General who's always waiting to bite whatever Siege stabs! #FFXIV

A tall muscular man with dark hair, a bushy beard, and clothing like a pirate is thrusting a spear covered in a field of blue lightning. Behind one of his feet there is a tiny shark-like creature scooting across the ground on its belly, looking towards where the man's spear is pointing.

I was messing around in Gpose and froze Siege at just the right moment to discover that this happens every time he uses Vorpal Thrust. A level 4 power that he literally learned during the first combat mission of his career. I can only imagine how bad his back feels after 86 levels of this. #FFXIV

An image of a character from Final Fantasy XIV, a muscular bearded man dressed like a pirate wielding a spear. The animation of the spear attack he's performing has caused his arm to twist in an unnatural way so that the shoulder rotates back so far that the upper arm passes through the interior of his torso. The wrist of his other hand is also twisted at a very uncomfortable angle.
