character saturday: stormcloud

masika el-borak - ex-pirate, business-woman, bad-ass

Taking another dip back into the Existing Character Redesign box for this week's DnD Character Colouring Book. This time all the way back to one of my very nearly characters, Masika El-Borak.

She last showed up, pre Face Customiser, a couple of years ago. And while this still isn't The Perfect Jacket, this is a much better version of the Staff of Thunder and Lightning. And while I probably could go in and do minor tweaks on her face until the end of time, I feel like the attitude is absolutely correct here.

And much more on brand with what I said last time...

If Masika El-Borak is looking at you like that, you should already be running... because you've clearly annoyed her and now it's time for lightning. Or thunder. Or both.

Because she will fuck you up.

I do wish the knee armor disappeared when you put high boots on... but you can't have everything.

Anyway...

This week was... all over the place.

Soup this week was Beef, Vegetable and Rice. Decent, although honestly, the beef that I used really needed a longer, slower cook. Also possibly everything needed to be chopped a little larger.

I did start the new crochet project... firstly by winding all the yarn into cakes, then having massive indecision about exactly what the hell I was doing. And then lastly doing the thing. Of course, given that hindsight is somewhat 20/20, are there other things I could have done? Absolutely. But I'm happy with how it's coming together right now.

There's no Mini Media Reviews for this week... mostly because I didn't have anything to watch, at least partially because I was working on crochet and ended up just putting nonsense on so there was colour and movement in the background.

Otherwise, the Gentlemen of the Gentlemen's Apps were, essentially, spending entirely too much time on my last actual nerve. Also absolutely my own fault for getting into a mood I would best describe by Wednesday as "feral". I did get over it though.

Friday was Chiro Day. Hence the going into town and wandering around at all the usual places I wander around.

Friday Night DnD was... one long combat. Like two and a half hours worth. Did things go according to plan? No. Did we get 90% of the things we needed to get by the end? Yes. Is the one thing we don't have the one thing I want us to have? Also yes. Are we done yet? Not on your nelly. Wheels are still in motion.

Anyway...

Today wasn't overly exciting. Supermarket as usual. And that was it really.
