Night Island

I got this from musesfool a few days ago, so I thought I'd get to it while I kill time waiting to go to a late lunch/early dinner/afternoon snack with my mom. I love these kinds of memes, so I'm glad they're coming back around again. I remember doing and seeing them on LJ back in the day. Just comment if you would like me to give you three random things to talk about.

( Lemons, cows, and sparks... oh my! )

That was fun!

ETA: I completely forgot the other fannish meaning of lemons that refers to smutty fanfic. -_-; I do like those and have read many. IIRC, that term was used primarily by people who were in anime fandoms, and it migrated to other fandoms sometimes--especially Harry Potter. It was pretty much universal for anything smutty on Quizilla from what I remember. Do people still use this term? They also used to use lime for a lighter version, but I was never sure where the line was between lemons and limes. Either way, there was a whole lot of citrus going on. XD

...but it's fun to do it again.

I Am A: Neutral Good Elf Cleric (4th Level)


Ability Scores:

Strength-11

Dexterity-13

Constitution-12

Intelligence-16

Wisdom-16

Charisma-12


Alignment:
Neutral Good A neutral good character does the best that a good person can do. He is devoted to helping others. He
works with kings and magistrates but does not feel beholden to them. Neutral good is the best alignment you can be because it means doing what is good
without bias for or against order. However, neutral good can be a dangerous alignment when it advances mediocrity by limiting the actions of the truly
capable.


Race:
Elves are known for their poetry, song, and magical arts, but when danger threatens they show great skill with weapons and strategy.
Elves can live to be over 700 years old and, by human standards, are slow to make friends and enemies, and even slower to forget them. Elves are slim and
stand 4.5 to 5.5 feet tall. They have no facial or body hair, prefer comfortable clothes, and possess unearthly grace. Many others races find them hauntingly
beautiful.


Class:
Clerics act as intermediaries between the earthly and the divine (or infernal) worlds. A good cleric helps those in need,
while an evil cleric seeks to spread his patron's vision of evil across the world. All clerics can heal wounds and bring people back from the brink of
death, and powerful clerics can even raise the dead. Likewise, all clerics have authority over undead creatures, and they can turn away or even destroy
these creatures. Clerics are trained in the use of simple weapons, and can use all forms of armor and shields without penalty, since armor does not interfere
with the casting of divine spells. In addition to his normal complement of spells, every cleric chooses to focus on two of his deity's domains. These domains
grants the cleric special powers, and give him access to spells that he might otherwise never learn. A cleric's Wisdom score should be high, since this
determines the maximum spell level that he can cast.

Elf makes sense because it is my favorite fantasy race. I'm not sure about cleric as I'm still trying to figure out what I think of organized religion, but it seems to exemplify the positive features of that institution.

Unfortunately, I've never played D&D, but I'd like to change that sometime soon.

Because my satellite reception is terrible right now, I'm only half-watching Gundam Iron-Blooded Orphans on Toonami tonight. I am hoping that things will improve when Hunter x Hunter comes on next, but I'm not holding my breath. All I've done today is read, but I'm almost done with another book, so that's something! Last night, I stayed up waaay too late playing a MUD of all things. Yep, that's where the search for accessible games and a strong nostalgia for the early days of the Internet before I had access has led me. I played Nanvaent,which was interesting, but I'm not sure if I was hooked or anything. I kept getting lost and killed while I was going nowhere fast.

Yesterday, I fiiinally went to the Downtown Disney Build a Bear Workshop to pick up my forlorn Pikachu. He is wonderfully rotund and creatively named "Pikachu." The custom Pikachu sound was only available online, so we made a homemade recording from YouTube. It turned out okay, and it was still loads better than any of the pre-recorded sounds. I also ate Italian food and ice cream.

Anyway, the reception for Hunter x Hunter is decent, so I'm going to watch it now.

There's far too much to take in here. More to find than can ever be found. That's my reaction whenever I think of all of the creative works that I want to experience and realize that there's still more amazing stuff that I haven't discovered yet.

Am I the only one who has lyrics from The Lion King float through their mind during random times of the day? Considering how important and beloved that movie was in my childhood (not to mention my grown-up love for Hamlet), it's really not surprising.

Hakuna matata, everyone!

Last night (or, to be more accurate; this morning), I stayed up until four o'clock watching a documentary about Mark Twain. xD; it was well worth it.

Also, trying to write while listening to the 25th anniversary concert of Les Miserables does not work. the music is too distracting... in a good way!
