UNRELATED SHIT MOSTLY PURGED OUT. xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx COPY PASTE OF LOGS PERTAINING TO LAMIA FROM FANKASIA, RACEDISCUSSION CHANNEL [09-Oct-20 02:51 PM] Wargunlock#0868 Anyway back to Fankasia asia. [09-Oct-20 02:51 PM] mothman#1742 yeah [09-Oct-20 02:51 PM] mothman#1742 i have some idea for orders i can use later [09-Oct-20 02:51 PM] Battlebrothermichael#5958 Hunters and trappers are the lain people here [09-Oct-20 02:52 PM] Battlebrothermichael#5958 Would they have dealings with Lamia merchants for food and crops? [09-Oct-20 02:52 PM] Wargunlock#0868 We should refine that abit more later on placing them on the map where the lodges and their ranges are. [09-Oct-20 02:52 PM] Wargunlock#0868 Yes they would. [09-Oct-20 02:52 PM] Battlebrothermichael#5958 Because I’d assume anyone would have a lot of trouble farming in Asia [09-Oct-20 02:52 PM] Fucking Kevin Goddamnit#4454 One thing I'd say is there needs to be a reason their bad ass guns didn't get out and proliferate around, if they must have semi-modern guns. Maybe they're bound to their spirits and if the guns themselves are away from the lodge too long - say a month or two w/e - they start turning into dust, or like, old rotted wood, and break into pieces from brittleness soon after. [09-Oct-20 02:52 PM] Wargunlock#0868 Lamias would basically be the only local civilizations to reliably trade with aside from themselves, shit they might even be middlemen for these autisticly violent and powerful retard ubremenschen hunters. [09-Oct-20 02:53 PM] Fucking Kevin Goddamnit#4454 Yee, Lamias would prolly supply them with rice alcohol for starters [09-Oct-20 02:53 PM] Fucking Kevin Goddamnit#4454 Sweet potato wine [09-Oct-20 02:53 PM] Wargunlock#0868 Because they are more or less hyper focused and obsessed with fucking hunting these tough monsters. [09-Oct-20 02:53 PM] Fucking Kevin Goddamnit#4454 Good luck making that yourselves, corpsefags [09-Oct-20 02:53 PM] Wargunlock#0868 Nope, gotta have a vacation sometime and the lamias are a good people to have fun with. [09-Oct-20 02:54 PM] mothman#1742 :sex: [09-Oct-20 02:54 PM] Fucking Kevin Goddamnit#4454 Also wait so, are there dif types of lodges? Many ran by non-magical niggas who just do this because its lucratove or w/e? [09-Oct-20 02:54 PM] mothman#1742 yes [09-Oct-20 02:54 PM] mothman#1742 lots of lodges and orders [09-Oct-20 02:54 PM] Fucking Kevin Goddamnit#4454 I could see Lamia occasionally joining, in some cases. [09-Oct-20 02:55 PM] Wargunlock#0868 The ones for the hallowed hunters are made from the Oakwalkers wooden flesh, so they are essentially bound to the hallowed. The hallowed can use them only, they can summon them with magic if they lose it but the moment a nigger touches it hes getting his life force sucked slowly. [09-Oct-20 02:55 PM] Battlebrothermichael#5958 >Lamias batter pelts, leather and meat in exchange for their sweet potatoes and rice wine [09-Oct-20 02:55 PM] mothman#1742 maybe there's something where only humans can be hunters [09-Oct-20 02:55 PM] mothman#1742 or only humans can join [09-Oct-20 02:55 PM] Wargunlock#0868 Yes there are a ton of these lodges each with their own tastes, benefactors and visions. [09-Oct-20 02:55 PM] mothman#1742 not like humans are the only ones that hunt, but humans are the only ones in the lodges [09-Oct-20 02:56 PM] mothman#1742 or maybe the lodges are multi-racial, idk [09-Oct-20 02:56 PM] Fucking Kevin Goddamnit#4454 >US GI undead niggas barter for potato bread since it tastes like dry pumpkin pie, and barter for their Lamia eggnog {Reactions} happyharpy (4) [09-Oct-20 02:56 PM] Battlebrothermichael#5958 Could be that the lamia just really don’t want to join [09-Oct-20 02:56 PM] Fucking Kevin Goddamnit#4454 K-Kawaii [09-Oct-20 02:56 PM] Wargunlock#0868 Lamias will get a steady supply of ores, leathers, herbs and other shit that they themselves can get but find it harder to do than just to trade these retards yam wine and other outside goods. [09-Oct-20 02:58 PM] Wargunlock#0868 US GI skinwalker niggers together with Wehrmacht and SS Skinwalker niggers grumble about old times that they dont really give a shit about anymore as they take a boat to Lamia Nagasaki. There they have some shore leave, see a snake woman belly dance, get drunk, eat REALLY good foreign food or lamia cooking and then just putz around until they are called to their Fafnir-skinwalker-oak god thing. {Reactions} itstime (2) [09-Oct-20 02:58 PM] Battlebrothermichael#5958 I suppose the smiths at the lodges would be very good [09-Oct-20 02:58 PM] mothman#1742 yes [09-Oct-20 02:58 PM] mothman#1742 you would need only the best gear made [09-Oct-20 02:58 PM] Battlebrothermichael#5958 A bunch of chads [09-Oct-20 02:58 PM] mothman#1742 cant have it break or fail mid hunt [09-Oct-20 02:58 PM] Fucking Kevin Goddamnit#4454 Lamia normally would not want to join, no. I was imagining a former warrior from the warrior families in Vietlamia looking at that as a sort of retirement. Maybe he lost all hos close family in war and considers the Lodge a comfort. [09-Oct-20 02:58 PM] Fucking Kevin Goddamnit#4454 Old nigga [09-Oct-20 02:58 PM] Wargunlock#0868 There they meet other lodge hunters, maybe fight each other with fists and get fuckin pumped beating the shit out of others that do the same thing they do. [09-Oct-20 02:58 PM] mothman#1742 >demascus steel greatsword [09-Oct-20 02:59 PM] Wargunlock#0868 I imagine thats another source of autistic rivalry. [09-Oct-20 02:59 PM] Wargunlock#0868 Sword or gun? [09-Oct-20 02:59 PM] Battlebrothermichael#5958 HAHA [09-Oct-20 02:59 PM] mothman#1742 grug have bigger club than smaller grug [09-Oct-20 02:59 PM] mothman#1742 grugs club better [09-Oct-20 02:59 PM] Wargunlock#0868 These niggers need to fight over the most pedantic shit possible.' [09-Oct-20 03:00 PM] mothman#1742 *BONK* [09-Oct-20 03:00 PM] Wargunlock#0868 *BANG* [09-Oct-20 03:00 PM] Fucking Kevin Goddamnit#4454 >Lamia nagasaki Theres like, prolly only 2 proper towns worth going to for them, unless they wanna travel way fuckin' south to the southern administration city, where they prolly wouldnt be very welcome like they would in the North [09-Oct-20 03:00 PM] Battlebrothermichael#5958 >the sword or gun debate was almost forever finished when someone proposed using a sword and gun at the same time >he was immediately beat up by all parties involved and water boarded with lamia panties and beer until he said it was a stupid idea {Reactions} chad (2) [09-Oct-20 03:00 PM] mothman#1742 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FrDEbG9yQUA >hunter arguments in a nutshell {Embed} Kit Kat https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FrDEbG9yQUA You brought a hammer to a sword fight? https://i.ytimg.com/vi/FrDEbG9yQUA/sddefault.jpg [09-Oct-20 03:00 PM] Wargunlock#0868 Im liking them to the Japanese, where they had like one area where they could trade with them and even then their existence was barely tolerated. [09-Oct-20 03:01 PM] mothman#1742 wait who be japanese ? [09-Oct-20 03:01 PM] Wargunlock#0868 No just for this instance [09-Oct-20 03:01 PM] mothman#1742 oh ok [09-Oct-20 03:01 PM] Battlebrothermichael#5958 Yee [09-Oct-20 03:01 PM] Battlebrothermichael#5958 Sounds good [09-Oct-20 03:01 PM] mothman#1742 oh your talking about the lamia [09-Oct-20 03:01 PM] Wargunlock#0868 Idk thats for Kevin and Harpy to decide [09-Oct-20 03:01 PM] mothman#1742 ok [09-Oct-20 03:01 PM] Battlebrothermichael#5958 Equivalent to those cities and cultures in that area [09-Oct-20 03:01 PM] mothman#1742 yeah [09-Oct-20 03:02 PM] Fucking Kevin Goddamnit#4454 >very good smiths Lamias have this thing where master metal polishers (polishers in general really) are as common as blacks in a welfare line, so most goods that can be made to shine and reflect end up being made to do so as part of doing business. Theyd, at least prekonvergence,look unfavorably to outsider shit that wasnt shined or at least very well finushed. [09-Oct-20 03:02 PM] Fucking Kevin Goddamnit#4454 Fick phone typing is aids [09-Oct-20 03:02 PM] mothman#1742 hmmm [09-Oct-20 03:02 PM] mothman#1742 lamia smiths ? [09-Oct-20 03:02 PM] mothman#1742 :vibeface: [09-Oct-20 03:02 PM] mothman#1742 i like this [09-Oct-20 03:02 PM] Wargunlock#0868 :vibeface: [09-Oct-20 03:03 PM] mothman#1742 i do like the trope in stories of the blacksmith being some kind of monster or giant [09-Oct-20 03:03 PM] Wargunlock#0868 Yes indeed, yes indeed the Lamias are a very well developed species with interesting talents. One of which being their massive orbs and snake tails. [09-Oct-20 03:03 PM] Wargunlock#0868 Hm... [09-Oct-20 03:03 PM] Wargunlock#0868 Maybe thats for another hunter lodge. [09-Oct-20 03:03 PM] Battlebrothermichael#5958 Theoretically [09-Oct-20 03:03 PM] Fucking Kevin Goddamnit#4454 Yee, the Lamia have the best smiths locally among the natives. [09-Oct-20 03:04 PM] Battlebrothermichael#5958 Since lamias have twice the strength of a man [09-Oct-20 03:04 PM] Wargunlock#0868 Are we calling them Hunter Orders or Hunter lodges? [09-Oct-20 03:04 PM] Battlebrothermichael#5958 They could hit a hammer very hard [09-Oct-20 03:04 PM] Fucking Kevin Goddamnit#4454 Theyre still nit thaaat great [09-Oct-20 03:04 PM] mothman#1742 maybe both ? {Reactions} ☝️ [09-Oct-20 03:04 PM] Fucking Kevin Goddamnit#4454 But they aiight, as a whole [09-Oct-20 03:04 PM] Battlebrothermichael#5958 Maybe the two names could be interchangeable? [09-Oct-20 03:04 PM] mothman#1742 like the lodge is where the order is [09-Oct-20 03:04 PM] Battlebrothermichael#5958 And the order is in the lodge [09-Oct-20 03:04 PM] Wargunlock#0868 Probably the hunter orders would want to hook up with them to help build some firearms on occaison. [09-Oct-20 03:04 PM] Fucking Kevin Goddamnit#4454 But theyre super good at polishing and lacquer making and waxing and shit. Its a big part of their cultural industry [09-Oct-20 03:04 PM] Fucking Kevin Goddamnit#4454 Some groups may want different names toom [09-Oct-20 03:05 PM] mothman#1742 >here's your "gun" bro {Attachments} https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/725124021506801765/764247067735359508/IMG_0157.png [09-Oct-20 03:05 PM] Wargunlock#0868 Ah so the Hunters Order has Northern lodges, southern lodges and wester lodges, the western one being the one with the most activity. [09-Oct-20 03:05 PM] Fucking Kevin Goddamnit#4454 "Fuck those lodge niggas, we a 'House' now." [09-Oct-20 03:05 PM] Wargunlock#0868 >Ye old boomer genprey armor I want to go back. [09-Oct-20 03:05 PM] mothman#1742 ok so wait are the hunter lodges only in the asia region, like along the edges so they can keep the shit in ? [09-Oct-20 03:05 PM] Wargunlock#0868 Yes [09-Oct-20 03:05 PM] mothman#1742 like maybe they cover all the corners [09-Oct-20 03:06 PM] mothman#1742 north south east west etc [09-Oct-20 03:06 PM] Fucking Kevin Goddamnit#4454 There might be some deeper in for various reasons. Like getting expensive ass furs and shit only available centrally [09-Oct-20 03:06 PM] Battlebrothermichael#5958 The hunter lodge/orders/houses are all through Asia [09-Oct-20 03:06 PM] Fucking Kevin Goddamnit#4454 Tho, the undead lodge would be right in the middle rite? [09-Oct-20 03:06 PM] Wargunlock#0868 But less about containing that shit for the Hallowed hunters and more about hunting whatever the fuck they want in that area, indirectly helping the other Hunter Orders that actually do that. [09-Oct-20 03:06 PM] Fucking Kevin Goddamnit#4454 Since they dont give a fuxk [09-Oct-20 03:07 PM] Wargunlock#0868 No, they'd get wiped out if they went into the middle of the forest. [09-Oct-20 03:07 PM] Fucking Kevin Goddamnit#4454 Mmmm. [09-Oct-20 03:07 PM] mothman#1742 wait forest ? [09-Oct-20 03:07 PM] Fucking Kevin Goddamnit#4454 Well [09-Oct-20 03:07 PM] mothman#1742 doesnt asia have more land than just forest ? [09-Oct-20 03:07 PM] Fucking Kevin Goddamnit#4454 I think he means deep ass jungle [09-Oct-20 03:07 PM] Wargunlock#0868 Elder dragons with 999+IQ and a crippling lamia tail fetish wouldn't hesitate to Cast:Nuclear holocaust on their lodge if they thought it was a threat. {Reactions} excuseme [09-Oct-20 03:07 PM] mothman#1742 like it has steppes and deserts [09-Oct-20 03:08 PM] Wargunlock#0868 Yes, they have all the biomes [09-Oct-20 03:08 PM] mothman#1742 ok [09-Oct-20 03:08 PM] Wargunlock#0868 Its just that they are surrounded by a great green jungle wall full of the most savage fucking animals possible on the surface. [09-Oct-20 03:08 PM] mothman#1742 like a natural wall [09-Oct-20 03:08 PM] Fucking Kevin Goddamnit#4454 Thats an odd thought. The Lamia god is super mega anti-dragon, ficked some dragons up historically. Itd be interesting if the older coomier dragons fetishize the snake parts of Lamia, if theyre really weird. {Reactions} sex [09-Oct-20 03:09 PM] Wargunlock#0868 Definitely [09-Oct-20 03:09 PM] mothman#1742 maybe other parties coming to asia use airships to get around or over the forest wall [09-Oct-20 03:09 PM] Wargunlock#0868 Expalin to us the Lamia god [09-Oct-20 03:09 PM] Wargunlock#0868 Airships and dragons dont mix. {Reactions} ☝️ [09-Oct-20 03:09 PM] mothman#1742 oof [09-Oct-20 03:10 PM] Wargunlock#0868 They might become viable once Kommandos try and make their own zeppelins with a fuckton of firepower but idk about that. [09-Oct-20 03:10 PM] Kachel#6608 >Airships and dragons dont mix. For you. [09-Oct-20 03:10 PM] Battlebrothermichael#5958 >finally get airship up and running >fucking lizard burns it in 10 seconds [09-Oct-20 03:10 PM] Kachel#6608 https://myanimelist.net/manga/101479/Kuutei_Dragons {Embed} https://myanimelist.net/manga/101479/Kuutei_Dragons Kuutei Dragons It's time to see what the dragon tastes like!

[09-Oct-20 03:11 PM] Kachel#6608 It has a anime adaptation. [09-Oct-20 03:11 PM] Fucking Kevin Goddamnit#4454 On mobile so its hard but hes basically a giant stark white snake, known as the White Snake. He was taking a nap, baby dragons bit him enough to be annoying so he killed them, then used supreme stealth and cunning to find where their egg zone was, eat all the eggs whole, kill mama dragon, then stealthily escape the backlash. He went to go take a nap after his giant meal, so he made the Lamia royal family to deal with what few dragon babies were still runnin' around. Then a lil later he woke up from his nap and made Lamia peasantry. {Reactions} chad (3) [09-Oct-20 03:11 PM] Wargunlock#0868 You do not want to be dabbed on and have your shit wasted by dragons and the local wildlife so you have to tread carefully when doing shit here. [09-Oct-20 03:12 PM] Wargunlock#0868 So how did he create the lamias? [09-Oct-20 03:13 PM] Battlebrothermichael#5958 @Fucking Kevin Goddamnit get the poster [09-Oct-20 03:13 PM] Wargunlock#0868 Maybe hes the one good eldritch being that although a sly bastard only used his evil outlet on shit that needed it and just decided to pork elvish women, murk dragons and fucking sleep. [09-Oct-20 03:13 PM] Wargunlock#0868 Idk thats the kind of vibe I get from the white snake [09-Oct-20 03:13 PM] mothman#1742 dragon hunter {Attachments} https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/725124021506801765/764249323507679283/b387726910de7fc32b9b55f7c725f2f4.png [09-Oct-20 03:14 PM] mothman#1742 the vibe i get for the hunter is more survivalist and less knight [09-Oct-20 03:14 PM] mothman#1742 or maybe a mix of both [09-Oct-20 03:14 PM] Wargunlock#0868 Humans would have to get stronger through some external means in order to deal with the dragons in Asia. [09-Oct-20 03:14 PM] Battlebrothermichael#5958 Wait fuck that’s supposed to be spoilered for the joke [09-Oct-20 03:14 PM] Wargunlock#0868 Please spoiler that Harpy-sama [09-Oct-20 03:14 PM] Wargunlock#0868 KK that works too [09-Oct-20 03:15 PM] Fucking Kevin Goddamnit#4454 Waot duck i cant spoiler on mobile [09-Oct-20 03:15 PM] Wargunlock#0868 This is a christian server [09-Oct-20 03:15 PM] Battlebrothermichael#5958 WHY DOES SPOILER NOT WORK ON MOBILE FOR FUCKS SAKE [09-Oct-20 03:15 PM] Fucking Kevin Goddamnit#4454 Shit [09-Oct-20 03:15 PM] Wargunlock#0868 Coom shit is 4 coomery [09-Oct-20 03:15 PM] Fucking Kevin Goddamnit#4454 NIGGER DISCORS.

His Lamia do, a lot [09-Oct-20 03:16 PM] Wargunlock#0868 No to create the Lamias, his tard children [09-Oct-20 03:16 PM] Fucking Kevin Goddamnit#4454 But he is happy to kill them [09-Oct-20 03:16 PM] Battlebrothermichael#5958 The joke/idea is that the white snake bred with humans, like the angels with humans to create the nephilim [09-Oct-20 03:17 PM] Battlebrothermichael#5958 Hence why the lamia are somewhat an abomination [09-Oct-20 03:17 PM] mothman#1742 oohhh, that can explain the human parts of lamias [09-Oct-20 03:17 PM] Battlebrothermichael#5958 Yee [09-Oct-20 03:17 PM] Fucking Kevin Goddamnit#4454 Ah, nobody specific. Its unclear in the Lamia's own religious lore, but rhey themselves are fully aware that they sure do look a lot like humans in some ways. [09-Oct-20 03:17 PM] mothman#1742 actually that could explain a lot of the more human looking races too [09-Oct-20 03:17 PM] mothman#1742 even the beastfolk races [09-Oct-20 03:17 PM] mothman#1742 respective gods acting like coomers with humans [09-Oct-20 03:18 PM] Wargunlock#0868 Yeah they were the products of the Eldritch beings that were evil in nature. [09-Oct-20 03:18 PM] Fucking Kevin Goddamnit#4454 >pork elvish women Despite thsir poijty ears I always imagined them as being human derived in some manner [09-Oct-20 03:18 PM] Wargunlock#0868 They had different levels of evil, Gamer being one of them [09-Oct-20 03:18 PM] Wargunlock#0868 But White snake? White snake just wants to eat Dragons and dab on them. [09-Oct-20 03:18 PM] Wargunlock#0868 Idk about that, maybe he has a reason for it. [09-Oct-20 03:19 PM] Wargunlock#0868 Gross. [09-Oct-20 03:19 PM] mothman#1742 lmao [09-Oct-20 03:19 PM] Wargunlock#0868 And very anatomically accurate.

[09-Oct-20 03:20 PM] Fucking Kevin Goddamnit#4454 Yee, white snake burrows/kinda buries him self in the ground. Originally the baby dragons had to dig through the earth to reach him to bite him and piss him off [09-Oct-20 03:20 PM] Battlebrothermichael#5958 Ok [09-Oct-20 03:21 PM] Battlebrothermichael#5958 So on the idea of the snake breeding with regular creatures [09-Oct-20 03:21 PM] Wargunlock#0868 So he was just content to resting for thousands upon thousands of years after being originally created and it was only until nigger minded baby dragons bit into his flesh did he act. [09-Oct-20 03:21 PM] Wargunlock#0868 What type of magic can white snake use?

[09-Oct-20 03:25 PM] Battlebrothermichael#5958 Woke up in an empty hotel rom [09-Oct-20 03:25 PM] Fucking Kevin Goddamnit#4454 Nigga enjoys eating, naps, being chad, and if bored, memeing on powerful entities. The Lamia religion massively downplays that last bit. [09-Oct-20 03:25 PM] Battlebrothermichael#5958 Then 20 years later gets an email saying “hi, we never met but I am your daughter” {Reactions} unnerved (4) [09-Oct-20 03:26 PM] Fucking Kevin Goddamnit#4454 He carws foe his children amd if theres a problwm he sometimes helps. [09-Oct-20 03:26 PM] Wargunlock#0868 Ok so what makes the materials, ores, herbs and other shit in fankasia asia more valuable and desireable than other stuff out in the world? [09-Oct-20 03:27 PM] Wargunlock#0868 Can we work on creating the materials and why they are worthwhile to purchase for high prices? [09-Oct-20 03:27 PM] Fucking Kevin Goddamnit#4454 Pancakes with lots of eggs on the side. [09-Oct-20 03:27 PM] Battlebrothermichael#5958 Possibly a higher latent mana concentration? [09-Oct-20 03:27 PM] Fucking Kevin Goddamnit#4454 Him and Lamia fucking love eggs. [09-Oct-20 03:27 PM] Wargunlock#0868 Dragon tendies. [09-Oct-20 03:27 PM] Fucking Kevin Goddamnit#4454 Pardon my slow here. Responding to shit 10 mins old due to mobile. [09-Oct-20 03:28 PM] Wargunlock#0868 Perhaps Herbs there just last for a really long time and if they are added to other foodstuffs they can last for a LOT longer than they normally could and still retain their flavor, this in of itself can add years to ones lifespan. [09-Oct-20 03:28 PM] Fucking Kevin Goddamnit#4454 >more valuable Well, theres Adamantine in quantity. Its still super duper rare, but its there. [09-Oct-20 03:28 PM] Battlebrothermichael#5958 The herbs could be better [09-Oct-20 03:28 PM] Battlebrothermichael#5958 The ideal climate for them [09-Oct-20 03:29 PM] Fucking Kevin Goddamnit#4454 The spices are based. Place grows lots of gpod shit and in high quantitiew.n [09-Oct-20 03:29 PM] Battlebrothermichael#5958 Since we can assume it’s more humid, better temperatures, etc [09-Oct-20 03:29 PM] Wargunlock#0868 So if you are a rich fucking dwarf with a lot of really good soldiers you can feed this stuff to them whenever you can get it, paying massive prices to keep your best men alive and loyal. [09-Oct-20 03:29 PM] Wargunlock#0868 Im talking more so about the characteristics or qualities of the items [09-Oct-20 03:29 PM] Fucking Kevin Goddamnit#4454 Certain herbs are prolly lit. Prolly tons of uhhhhh asian herbal medicine shit, and much of it, tho not all, actually works. [09-Oct-20 03:29 PM] Fucking Kevin Goddamnit#4454 And isnt just an unironic chink scam [09-Oct-20 03:30 PM] Battlebrothermichael#5958 They probably have really fucking good tea [09-Oct-20 03:30 PM] Wargunlock#0868 Take for instance Cordyceps Militaris, a real life example. Its one of the few supplements that can raise your VO2 max while exercising and it provides cognitive benefits as well. It was taken by chinese kings to lenghten their lfiespan. [09-Oct-20 03:31 PM] Fucking Kevin Goddamnit#4454 Eh. Idunno abkut it just being stat boosting spice. Some kf their more magical herbs, sure, but not like, Lamia black pepper gives a nigga abs or something [09-Oct-20 03:31 PM] Wargunlock#0868 Lets look into the greatest examples of Chinese herbal remedies and european herbal remedies and see what types of effects they claimed they have. Then, taking that into account create something new and interesting with it. [09-Oct-20 03:31 PM] Fucking Kevin Goddamnit#4454 >tea Yee. But doesnt asia also have coffee? [09-Oct-20 03:31 PM] Fucking Kevin Goddamnit#4454 Or is that not natural [09-Oct-20 03:31 PM] Wargunlock#0868 Like the europeans thought that a dragons heart would add years onto their lifespan. [09-Oct-20 03:31 PM] Wargunlock#0868 And/or would make you immortal. [09-Oct-20 03:31 PM] Fucking Kevin Goddamnit#4454 Whoa [09-Oct-20 03:32 PM] Fucking Kevin Goddamnit#4454 Life extending herbs but for real? Fucking based. [09-Oct-20 03:32 PM] Wargunlock#0868 No I dont believe it does, but they can have a fusion of South American flora and fauna in addition to all the Asian plants and animals. [09-Oct-20 03:32 PM] Battlebrothermichael#5958 Asians really only have tea [09-Oct-20 03:32 PM] Battlebrothermichael#5958 Coffee is South American iirc [09-Oct-20 03:32 PM] Wargunlock#0868 Yes, but with different bullshit side effects [09-Oct-20 03:32 PM] Wargunlock#0868 lets add all the cool jungle shit into Fankasia asia. [09-Oct-20 03:33 PM] Fucking Kevin Goddamnit#4454 Dragon hearts prolly help a nigga, yee. But maybe only full grown AKA super duper rare. [09-Oct-20 03:33 PM] Fucking Kevin Goddamnit#4454 Immature dragon hearts have some good effects too [09-Oct-20 03:33 PM] Fucking Kevin Goddamnit#4454 But lesser and also cheaper. [09-Oct-20 03:33 PM] Fucking Kevin Goddamnit#4454 Lamia prolly give that shit to their royal family whenever it happens. [09-Oct-20 03:34 PM] Wargunlock#0868 Cheaper being relative, you are still going to pay out the ass for it because Lamias need those gold coins. [09-Oct-20 03:34 PM] Battlebrothermichael#5958 >Blue tea >tastes like black tea but much smoother >slightly higher caffeine content than normal black tea >doesn’t have to be boiled, just add the crushed leafs into water and they dissolve in minutes [09-Oct-20 03:34 PM] Fucking Kevin Goddamnit#4454 >doesnt have to be boiled [09-Oct-20 03:34 PM] Fucking Kevin Goddamnit#4454 Also wait a second [09-Oct-20 03:34 PM] Fucking Kevin Goddamnit#4454 This is just caffeinated gatoraid nigga [09-Oct-20 03:35 PM] Wargunlock#0868 Since the Lamias are the only niggers stable enough in that area and the trade partners for the Hunter Orders they can charge whatever they want for it. Elves, Dwarves, Oni, whatever the fuck else will just have to get their wallet raped by a snakewoman. [09-Oct-20 03:35 PM] mothman#1742 kek [09-Oct-20 03:35 PM] mothman#1742 the lamias simp for the hunters [09-Oct-20 03:35 PM] Fucking Kevin Goddamnit#4454 Yup. Most Oni tribes are the official enemy of the Lamia, but not all. [09-Oct-20 03:36 PM] Fucking Kevin Goddamnit#4454 They're *all* mistrusted tho fo sho' [09-Oct-20 03:36 PM] Battlebrothermichael#5958 “If they have red skin, never let them in” -Common Lamia saying [09-Oct-20 03:36 PM] Wargunlock#0868 Idk about that one, the hunters just want to hunt shit and have fun where they can. They trade with them because they are the middleman for timelost shit that reminds them of home in the case of the Hallowed hunters, this being the case for most Hunter Orders, they have to go through the Lamia kingdoms to get other goods outside of the world. [09-Oct-20 03:36 PM] Fucking Kevin Goddamnit#4454 You know what would be lit as a pet? Mini water buffalo. [09-Oct-20 03:36 PM] Wargunlock#0868 Very [09-Oct-20 03:37 PM] Fucking Kevin Goddamnit#4454 I could see that as a Lamia dog. [09-Oct-20 03:37 PM] Battlebrothermichael#5958 >Mini water buffalo [09-Oct-20 03:37 PM] Battlebrothermichael#5958 Explain [09-Oct-20 03:37 PM] Wargunlock#0868 Fidel Castro wanted to make micro cows for all cubans to own so that they can milk their own udders. [09-Oct-20 03:37 PM] Wargunlock#0868 Castro was orb pilled [09-Oct-20 03:37 PM] mothman#1742 you know thats another thing thats cool, not just animals being super large, but also dwarfism [09-Oct-20 03:37 PM] Wargunlock#0868 Maybe some sort of autistic fulfillment of that? [09-Oct-20 03:37 PM] Wargunlock#0868 Yeah [09-Oct-20 03:37 PM] Fucking Kevin Goddamnit#4454 I imagine some of the better trade routes for hunters are Lamia ones, ocean-trading shit. [09-Oct-20 03:37 PM] mothman#1742 normal creatures becoming smaller [09-Oct-20 03:37 PM] Battlebrothermichael#5958 Yes [09-Oct-20 03:37 PM] Battlebrothermichael#5958 Magically done [09-Oct-20 03:37 PM] mothman#1742 mini elephant [09-Oct-20 03:38 PM] Fucking Kevin Goddamnit#4454 >explain Water buffalo, but dog sized with labrador temperament, very hairy. [09-Oct-20 03:38 PM] mothman#1742 thats too cute [09-Oct-20 03:38 PM] Wargunlock#0868 Well they are the only shit thats close by, Fankasia Japan is a Oni held hellhole that doesn't have nearly as much outside contact as the Lamias. {Reactions} itstime (3) [09-Oct-20 03:38 PM] Fucking Kevin Goddamnit#4454 Tiny elephants *are* lit. I dont see Lamia having them tho. Maybe sand niggers? [09-Oct-20 03:39 PM] Battlebrothermichael#5958 Maybe the Oni have them [09-Oct-20 03:39 PM] Wargunlock#0868 So yeah, the Lamias are the preferred stop but if a specific Hunter Order decides its time for some pelvis smashin or some shit they can go over there. [09-Oct-20 03:39 PM] Fucking Kevin Goddamnit#4454 Disgusting. How mini are they in that case thom [09-Oct-20 03:40 PM] mothman#1742 >if a specific Hunter Order decides its time for some pelvis smashin or some shit [09-Oct-20 03:40 PM] mothman#1742 :intense: [09-Oct-20 03:40 PM] Fucking Kevin Goddamnit#4454 I wonder if Lamia do much ocean travel themselves, or if they rely on outsiders for all ocean shipping. [09-Oct-20 03:40 PM] Fucking Kevin Goddamnit#4454 In thinking the latter, at least prekonvergence [09-Oct-20 03:41 PM] Fucking Kevin Goddamnit#4454 Portuguese niggas. [09-Oct-20 03:41 PM] Wargunlock#0868 Well where the fuck are the traders going to go? The Oni? Nobody wants to deal with that, they cant fucking deal with their wares being destroyed by some giant red woman in a rage. [09-Oct-20 03:41 PM] Wargunlock#0868 Australia? Why the fuck would you want to go to that hellhole, thats even more fucked and less populated. [09-Oct-20 03:42 PM] Wargunlock#0868 The Hunters themselves? Are you kidding me? They are fucking NUTS and cant be assed to do that, they want to HUNT DRAGONS not do some "Gay trading shit". [09-Oct-20 03:42 PM] Fucking Kevin Goddamnit#4454 Russia, the americas, India, africa, then portugal and Europe. [09-Oct-20 03:42 PM] Battlebrothermichael#5958 They could go to the Oni place for tournaments of strength and skill [09-Oct-20 03:42 PM] Wargunlock#0868 The Lamias, although xenophobic as shit, are the only ones that they could reasonably work with. [09-Oct-20 03:43 PM] Wargunlock#0868 Lamia men are not going to turn down their wives wanting some cool elvish made clothing. [09-Oct-20 03:44 PM] Wargunlock#0868 So when presented with foreign goods maybe they said "We like it, but we dont want to be in contact with you at all, bare minimum and thats all." {Reactions} happyharpy [09-Oct-20 03:44 PM] Wargunlock#0868 Does somebody have the picture of the rattler lamia salivating and pointing to a pair of shoes? [09-Oct-20 03:45 PM] Fucking Kevin Goddamnit#4454 Lamia probably have this idea about certain shit, "If they could, They would" meaning if any other groups could reasonably colonize asia, they would've by then, which is why every couple hunnid years when dwarves or some stupid niggas try making lucrative colonies in asia, they just ignore them or try benefiting from their eventual violent failure [09-Oct-20 03:45 PM] Battlebrothermichael#5958 I like that [09-Oct-20 03:45 PM] Wargunlock#0868 Good luck with that shit. [09-Oct-20 03:45 PM] Battlebrothermichael#5958 :itstime: [09-Oct-20 03:46 PM] Wargunlock#0868 If you do not have the extensive knowledge that the Lamias have of how to live there or what to be on the lookout for they are going to get fucked its only a matter of time. [09-Oct-20 03:46 PM] Fucking Kevin Goddamnit#4454 Yee. [09-Oct-20 03:46 PM] Fucking Kevin Goddamnit#4454 Plus, it ends up being more expensive than most nations could pay for, before they start seeing gains [09-Oct-20 03:47 PM] Wargunlock#0868 Hunter Orders have both and are mostly fuck off far removed from them so they really could give less of a shit, sure they sometimes show up but they are known about and sectioned off in one port city type of situation. [09-Oct-20 03:47 PM] Fucking Kevin Goddamnit#4454 Yup. [09-Oct-20 03:48 PM] Wargunlock#0868 I imagine older Hunter orders are somewhat more well received because, well, they've been here for a long ass time and any greivances we've had with them have been resolved, They can be trusted. [09-Oct-20 03:48 PM] Fucking Kevin Goddamnit#4454 Theres the Royal city"need to figure iut a name for that, up river, and a coastal city at the end of that river. [09-Oct-20 03:48 PM] Battlebrothermichael#5958 Would the hunter orders defend Asia from potential colonizers? [09-Oct-20 03:48 PM] Wargunlock#0868 Some new ass Hunter Order that popped up Thirty years ago? Hm....Gonna have to have someone vouch for you or else no Lamia bellydances or Yam wine for your ass. [09-Oct-20 03:48 PM] Wargunlock#0868 Hm. [09-Oct-20 03:48 PM] Wargunlock#0868 Idk maybe? [09-Oct-20 03:48 PM] Wargunlock#0868 They would be REALLY fucking stronk in battles but low in numbers. [09-Oct-20 03:49 PM] Fucking Kevin Goddamnit#4454 Yup. Lamia are all about hard earned trust and hard earned reputation. A lofetime or two of no major problems opens up a lot of doors. [09-Oct-20 03:49 PM] Wargunlock#0868 The Hallowed Hunters for example can and **WILL** fight things other than Asian monsters, they've been trying to set up a lodge in Fankasia Japan for awhile. [09-Oct-20 03:49 PM] Fucking Kevin Goddamnit#4454 Based [09-Oct-20 03:50 PM] Fucking Kevin Goddamnit#4454 Use wire to fix some jap skulls to thwir fucking jeepa [09-Oct-20 03:50 PM] Fucking Kevin Goddamnit#4454 Jeeps* [09-Oct-20 03:50 PM] Wargunlock#0868 I imagine that the Hallowed Hunters even, existing for almost a hundred years, have just begun to gain enough of a reputation to do more things other than do limited contact trading. [09-Oct-20 03:50 PM] Wargunlock#0868 >Jap >Not Oni skulls [09-Oct-20 03:51 PM] Fucking Kevin Goddamnit#4454 Kill'm all [09-Oct-20 03:51 PM] Wargunlock#0868 Kinda missing the point there, they are also ripe fierce bastards and they would tack the red skin onto the spoilers and hoods of their Jeeps as well. [09-Oct-20 03:51 PM] Fucking Kevin Goddamnit#4454 Lamia prolly hate Jap oni regardless, but how civilized are they? Not at all? [09-Oct-20 03:51 PM] Battlebrothermichael#5958 >Jap >Oni skulls *whats the difference?* [09-Oct-20 03:51 PM] Fucking Kevin Goddamnit#4454 Also I could see Kobolds being in Japan. [09-Oct-20 03:51 PM] Wargunlock#0868 They hunt all sorts of animals, the two legged kind in addition to the four legged kind! [09-Oct-20 03:51 PM] Battlebrothermichael#5958 Jap Oni are probably a bit civilized [09-Oct-20 03:52 PM] Battlebrothermichael#5958 Or no legged kind! [09-Oct-20 03:52 PM] Wargunlock#0868 Oh, That too! [09-Oct-20 03:52 PM] Fucking Kevin Goddamnit#4454 Whoa [09-Oct-20 03:53 PM] Wargunlock#0868 I thought of them somewhere inbetween Manchurai and korea, having their largest lodge being a very small settlement with maybe two hundred people, just enough to maintain boats and jeeps but not enough to build up to a city. [09-Oct-20 03:53 PM] Fucking Kevin Goddamnit#4454 I was thinkin' of that old retired Lamia warrior in one of these lodges. Colonel Tomb, maybe. S'just too cool of a name for me to not go with [09-Oct-20 03:53 PM] Wargunlock#0868 They are very selective of who they induct, just now they started inducting souls from the Gulf War. {Reactions} itstime [09-Oct-20 03:54 PM] Fucking Kevin Goddamnit#4454 Also would there be lodges ran specifically by certain foreign groups or powers? Like the official lodge for XYZ dwarven civ? [09-Oct-20 03:54 PM] Wargunlock#0868 The Hallowed Hunters probably wouldn't mind Lamias living with them [09-Oct-20 03:54 PM] Wargunlock#0868 Hm... [09-Oct-20 03:54 PM] Battlebrothermichael#5958 There would be a few no doubt [09-Oct-20 03:54 PM] Wargunlock#0868 They would be pounced on by the Other lodges but that could happen. [09-Oct-20 03:54 PM] Battlebrothermichael#5958 Maybe the outcasts who have nowhere to go? [09-Oct-20 03:54 PM] Fucking Kevin Goddamnit#4454 I coupd see them doing tjat to honor their kings and nobles or jjst rich niggas via fur trade [09-Oct-20 03:54 PM] Battlebrothermichael#5958 Ayyy [09-Oct-20 03:54 PM] Battlebrothermichael#5958 It works [09-Oct-20 03:55 PM] Battlebrothermichael#5958 @Fucking Kevin Goddamnit remember the outcast punishment for commuting a grievous crime? Could be that those lamia are usually taken in by the lodges [09-Oct-20 03:55 PM] Fucking Kevin Goddamnit#4454 Yee. Tho idk about usually, those types usually *are* bad eggs after all [09-Oct-20 03:55 PM] Fucking Kevin Goddamnit#4454 Sometimes yes tho [09-Oct-20 03:55 PM] Wargunlock#0868 "Fucking elvish cities states are stepping on our cocks again, time to ventilate their shit village with a hundred skinwalkers armed with a MG42, Garands and a couple of Jeeps." [09-Oct-20 03:56 PM] Battlebrothermichael#5958 :itstime: :itstime: :itstime: [09-Oct-20 03:56 PM] Fucking Kevin Goddamnit#4454 >pounced on by other lodges Wait what? Like, the other orders would kill lamia, or pursue them for membership? I don understan [09-Oct-20 03:56 PM] Wargunlock#0868 Or in the case of the Hunters that are like Monster hunters hunters they'd say "WOW PARD! Looks like the knife ears are setting up shop again! Gotta go club their skulls in with a massive fucking hammer and fly a suicide dragon packed with explosives into their shit village!" [09-Oct-20 03:57 PM] Wargunlock#0868 No the Orders would pounce on foreigners that set up shop. [09-Oct-20 03:58 PM] Fucking Kevin Goddamnit#4454 Ah [09-Oct-20 03:58 PM] Wargunlock#0868 They'd probably help the Lamias if they were to set up their own Lodges if anything. Currying favor with royal families and get better rights and trade deals just to help some niggers hunt dragons, potentially FINALLY gaining a reliable partner in the region? Fuck yea! [09-Oct-20 03:59 PM] Wargunlock#0868 No reason not to help the Lamias in that regard, they are a rational actor in the region. [09-Oct-20 03:59 PM] Wargunlock#0868 Unlike the Oni [09-Oct-20 03:59 PM] Wargunlock#0868 Who will get mad, horny, mad and horny and try to kill you for some fucking reason. {Reactions} Jerry [09-Oct-20 04:00 PM] Wargunlock#0868 Lamias are easier to work with, they'll just shut you out of their port city for a couple of decades if you piss them off. [09-Oct-20 04:00 PM] Fucking Kevin Goddamnit#4454 So weve got oak-undead lodge, and some other magical lodges, and then non-magoc-specific lodges, right? Are they all motovated by beimg badass, or is there a real mometary motivation for them often tok [09-Oct-20 04:00 PM] Fucking Kevin Goddamnit#4454 Too* [09-Oct-20 04:00 PM] Battlebrothermichael#5958 Both [09-Oct-20 04:00 PM] Wargunlock#0868 Undead-skinwalker-oak lodge and a Monster Hunter-like Order. [09-Oct-20 04:00 PM] Wargunlock#0868 Both [09-Oct-20 04:01 PM] Wargunlock#0868 And more. [09-Oct-20 04:01 PM] Wargunlock#0868 They can be powerful outcasts, only going here because if they set up shop anywhere else the elf inquistion would be onto their buttholes. [09-Oct-20 04:02 PM] Wargunlock#0868 They can be hunters of fortune, gaining rich off the plunder and natural wealth of the region. [09-Oct-20 04:02 PM] Wargunlock#0868 They can be a ancient order of resolute dragonslayers, heavenbent on killing their religions devils (dragons). [09-Oct-20 04:03 PM] Fucking Kevin Goddamnit#4454 If thats the case, why do some lodges destroy officially-ran foreign for-profit lodges? They view these other governments as nigs who will fuck up everything for everybody else? [09-Oct-20 04:04 PM] Wargunlock#0868 They like the balance as it is, and they have enough bullshit to deal with with the dragons, dinosaurs and monsters they have to fight and slaughter and the herbs and ores they have to extract and god forbid some zoomer ass organization tries to mooch off of their cash cow. [09-Oct-20 04:05 PM] Wargunlock#0868 Trying to get into the Hunter Order gig is tough as shit, you'd basically have to have no connection with any organization outside of the lamias. [09-Oct-20 04:05 PM] Fucking Kevin Goddamnit#4454 Mmm. Either take their cash or take their glory. [09-Oct-20 04:05 PM] Wargunlock#0868 They will slaughter you if you even have the suggestion of doing either of those two things. [09-Oct-20 04:06 PM] Wargunlock#0868 Thats the one thing they'll group up for, dealing with some foreign nations funded Order effort. [09-Oct-20 04:06 PM] Battlebrothermichael#5958 I can pictures the “native” lodges going after and destroying foreign lodges set up to profit off the locals [09-Oct-20 04:06 PM] Battlebrothermichael#5958 Ayyy [09-Oct-20 04:06 PM] Wargunlock#0868 They do not need their fucking help and they need to mind their own business, some of these groups are also wary of the Elvish inquisition. [09-Oct-20 04:06 PM] Battlebrothermichael#5958 ||what would their reactions to Jews be?|| [09-Oct-20 04:07 PM] Wargunlock#0868 They do not need the High elves getting reports of a Human order of badass hunters/teutonic dragonslayers/timelost SS US army skinwalkers. {Reactions} itstime [09-Oct-20 04:07 PM] Wargunlock#0868 High elves? [09-Oct-20 04:10 PM] Fucking Kevin Goddamnit#4454 Ah man, did a lot of physoczl work these last two days, more than normal, lots of weird crouching and crawling and even climbing and holy shit, underneath the slight soreness and physical-tiredness, I feel noticeably good. Tired, but pleasant. [09-Oct-20 04:10 PM] Wargunlock#0868 wat [09-Oct-20 04:11 PM] Fucking Kevin Goddamnit#4454 I'm sayin' it feels very good to be worn out but not absolutely fucked, for once. [09-Oct-20 04:11 PM] Fucking Kevin Goddamnit#4454 As in, physically good. [09-Oct-20 04:12 PM] Fucking Kevin Goddamnit#4454 I'm bouta go do some shit. Anything you wanna talk about before I bounce? [09-Oct-20 04:12 PM] Wargunlock#0868 Yeah nah Im good for now [09-Oct-20 04:13 PM] Fucking Kevin Goddamnit#4454 @Battlebrothermichael think' on those Lamia cities 'some while I'm gone, if'ya would. XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX [10-Oct-20 07:41 PM] Fucking Kevin Goddamnit#4454 Right, but, I want to flesh out his powers 'some. Like for instance could he make a Lamia's orbs more valuable at will? It's a lil silly, yes, but would it be unreasonable for him to have that power? [10-Oct-20 07:41 PM] Wargunlock#0868 Hm [10-Oct-20 07:42 PM] Wargunlock#0868 Altering someones being like that probably is well within his power. [10-Oct-20 07:43 PM] Fucking Kevin Goddamnit#4454 Mmn. Hiw about healing mortal's injuries? Regrowin' a nigga's foot? I like to think that he llves Lamia, specifically, and does good things for them if he runs into any that are fucked any time he gets up for a glass of water. [10-Oct-20 07:44 PM] Fucking Kevin Goddamnit#4454 Loves the Lamia* nigger phone. [10-Oct-20 07:46 PM] Wargunlock#0868 He could probably do that too. [10-Oct-20 07:49 PM] Fucking Kevin Goddamnit#4454 I'ma just list all my thoughts on his powers since I'm bouta be afk af. Healin' mortals (the more demigodly, the less he's able to do. Can't bring niggas back from stone cold death either.) Body modification to some extent. Turning into a Humanoid form to go secretly hang out with his Lamia on occasion Being impossibly quiet for stealth purposes. Magically blending in with his environment. I imagine I could thick of more but I gotta bounce for a bit now. [10-Oct-20 07:49 PM] Wargunlock#0868 How does white snake kill dragons? What can you do magically to fuck them up? [10-Oct-20 07:50 PM] Battlebrothermichael#5958 Let’s say on a scale of 1-10 [10-Oct-20 07:50 PM] Battlebrothermichael#5958 With 1 being average human power and 10 being all powerful being who creates the universe [10-Oct-20 07:50 PM] Battlebrothermichael#5958 I’d say white snake is a solid 7 XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX [11-Oct-20 11:35 AM] Fucking Kevin Goddamnit#4454 So, what races have strong ocean-going tradition? Dwarves almost never do, Lamia never do beyond very local coastal-sailing and even then it's just an offshoot of their river/delta endeavors. It's been talked about that Mermaids do a lot of river sailing but idunno if they would on oceans. [11-Oct-20 11:36 AM] Fucking Kevin Goddamnit#4454 I was thinking kawaii tanned Elves but idunno. [11-Oct-20 11:37 AM] mothman#1742 i think we have dark elves as pirates [11-Oct-20 11:38 AM] Fucking Kevin Goddamnit#4454 Yup. I'm thinking a suitable race for pre-konvergence ocean trading though. [11-Oct-20 11:48 AM] Battlebrothermichael#5958 Is it time for bayou mermaids? [11-Oct-20 11:48 AM] Battlebrothermichael#5958 Because I think it is [11-Oct-20 11:48 AM] mothman#1742 YES [11-Oct-20 11:48 AM] mothman#1742 :happyharpy: [11-Oct-20 11:48 AM] mothman#1742 they're so cute [11-Oct-20 11:49 AM] mothman#1742 farming manatee's along rivers and shallow sand beaches [11-Oct-20 11:49 AM] Wargunlock#0868 The dark elves that live in Somalia have a navy, they are equal pirates and merchants IIRC. [11-Oct-20 11:49 AM] Wargunlock#0868 Bayou mermaids sound cute. [11-Oct-20 12:22 PM] Fucking Kevin Goddamnit#4454 Yes. [11-Oct-20 12:23 PM] Fucking Kevin Goddamnit#4454 Problem with pirate niggas for the Lamia is, would the dark elves keep from betraying them long enough for the Lamia to be willing to majorly trade with them? [11-Oct-20 12:30 PM] Fucking Kevin Goddamnit#4454 Idunno. Tieflings? 'Could maybe see them making the journey from roughly Europe to roughly Asia. [11-Oct-20 12:30 PM] Fucking Kevin Goddamnit#4454 Portuguese Tieflings. [11-Oct-20 12:31 PM] Battlebrothermichael#5958 Maybe the lamia merchants could trade with the dark elves? [11-Oct-20 12:31 PM] Battlebrothermichael#5958 Maybe they have a linked religion [11-Oct-20 12:32 PM] Battlebrothermichael#5958 Something with the snakes [11-Oct-20 12:32 PM] Battlebrothermichael#5958 An uneasy truce [11-Oct-20 12:32 PM] Battlebrothermichael#5958 Just enough to sell goods and spices [11-Oct-20 12:32 PM] Battlebrothermichael#5958 I could definitely see bayou mermaids trading with lamia [11-Oct-20 12:32 PM] Battlebrothermichael#5958 Manatee meat [11-Oct-20 12:32 PM] Battlebrothermichael#5958 Sea cow burgers [11-Oct-20 12:32 PM] Battlebrothermichael#5958 The lamia need their protein [11-Oct-20 12:34 PM] Fucking Kevin Goddamnit#4454 >Bayou mermaids Based, but the journey anywhere worthwhile would be long, and how would they transport the goods? [11-Oct-20 12:35 PM] Fucking Kevin Goddamnit#4454 >sea cow burgers I hunger [11-Oct-20 12:35 PM] Battlebrothermichael#5958 They would drive the cattle up and down the river [11-Oct-20 12:35 PM] Battlebrothermichael#5958 Probably “harvest” it fresh [11-Oct-20 12:37 PM] instant ramen#8608 >elves run their ears along the necks of the manatee [11-Oct-20 12:37 PM] instant ramen#8608 >red ears not red necks {Reactions} itstime (3) [11-Oct-20 12:38 PM] Fucking Kevin Goddamnit#4454 Yee, but how wpuld they transport Lamia goods elsewhere without'm getting wet? I was thinking a bunch of water tight chests dragged by manatees like a bunch of balloons maybe. [11-Oct-20 12:39 PM] Battlebrothermichael#5958 Probably a raft or something like that [11-Oct-20 12:39 PM] Battlebrothermichael#5958 >see a random raft floating down the river >it’s up for grabs >get shot by the bayou mermaid owner [11-Oct-20 12:39 PM] Fucking Kevin Goddamnit#4454 Based. [11-Oct-20 12:39 PM] Fucking Kevin Goddamnit#4454 Can they do ocean travel? [11-Oct-20 12:44 PM] Battlebrothermichael#5958 I’d think they would like to stay in the rivers and Bayous, but I can see them hanging out in the gulfs and Lagoon areas [11-Oct-20 12:44 PM] Battlebrothermichael#5958 Definitely in reefs as well [11-Oct-20 12:44 PM] Battlebrothermichael#5958 But not the deep or open ocean like their cousins [11-Oct-20 01:01 PM] Fucking Kevin Goddamnit#4454 Fuck the deep ocean [11-Oct-20 01:01 PM] Fucking Kevin Goddamnit#4454 All my niggas hate the deep ocean [11-Oct-20 01:03 PM] Fucking Kevin Goddamnit#4454 I could see the Lamia liking the bayou mermaids as trading partners. Too weak to be concerning in that regard, a known path they have trouble deviating from.. Then again Vietlamia has a lot of deltas. [11-Oct-20 01:04 PM] Fucking Kevin Goddamnit#4454 Wheremst would they travel with the goods once they purchased them? [11-Oct-20 01:18 PM] Battlebrothermichael#5958 The deep ocean fills me with a severe sense of dread that is unexplainable [11-Oct-20 01:18 PM] Battlebrothermichael#5958 The mermaids would be good for the lamias because “no step” [11-Oct-20 01:18 PM] Battlebrothermichael#5958 They don’t have to worry about them taking their land [11-Oct-20 01:19 PM] Battlebrothermichael#5958 >Wheremst would they travel with the goods once they purchased them? @Fucking Kevin Goddamnit the mermaids or the lamia? [11-Oct-20 01:19 PM] Fucking Kevin Goddamnit#4454 Same, I am unironically scared of the ocean [11-Oct-20 01:19 PM] Fucking Kevin Goddamnit#4454 The mermoids [11-Oct-20 01:20 PM] Battlebrothermichael#5958 Mermoids would probably take the stuff with them on the backs of the manatees or rafts [11-Oct-20 01:20 PM] Battlebrothermichael#5958 I’d see them taking stuff like grain in exchange for meat [11-Oct-20 01:20 PM] Battlebrothermichael#5958 Maybe the lamias polish/treat the mermaids manatee leather [11-Oct-20 01:21 PM] Battlebrothermichael#5958 Make it worthwhile [11-Oct-20 01:22 PM] Fucking Kevin Goddamnit#4454 Lamia have this thing I never mentioned yet about uhhh, wanting to go out of their way to allow other Lamia passage through their land if necessary. Though in plotting the land in the first place they go through great care to leave room in between, public land as it were even if its impenetrable jungle, to allow travel. The occasions its necessary for outsiders to pass thru on the reg, they make little cordoned off walkways on the outskirts, for free, for as long as is necessary. [11-Oct-20 01:23 PM] Fucking Kevin Goddamnit#4454 Thats for Lamia though. I bet firstly that rivers criss cross through Lamia land like crazy, and since mermoids aren't Lamia, the land ownrs would prolly have negotiated passage long ago. So, lots of unmanned toll booths as it were. [11-Oct-20 01:24 PM] Fucking Kevin Goddamnit#4454 Or, for Lamia, a big stone or clay vessel that has the price of travel listed, that the mermoids put coin in. {Reactions} itstime (2) [11-Oct-20 01:25 PM] Fucking Kevin Goddamnit#4454 And prolly mostly on the smaller water ways, the ones that feel more private to the Lamia. And even then, not every time. [11-Oct-20 01:26 PM] Fucking Kevin Goddamnit#4454 But uh, the Lamia have a lot of shiny-ass bobbles to offer, as well as iron or perhaps copper tools [11-Oct-20 01:26 PM] Fucking Kevin Goddamnit#4454 Perhaps clothing. [11-Oct-20 01:28 PM] Fucking Kevin Goddamnit#4454 I could also see the mermoids liking Lamia spices. Maybe even liking some spices, being under water creatures in large part, that Lamia don't even eat themselves. [11-Oct-20 01:33 PM] Fucking Kevin Goddamnit#4454 But uh - would the mermaids be middle men, or direct traders? Would they take the shit they bought from the Lamia to other races and try to trade for profit there? [11-Oct-20 01:40 PM] Battlebrothermichael#5958 I like that idea [11-Oct-20 01:40 PM] Battlebrothermichael#5958 Yes [11-Oct-20 01:40 PM] Battlebrothermichael#5958 The first section the stone pots and stuff [11-Oct-20 01:40 PM] Battlebrothermichael#5958 Mermaids would definitely like the lamia spices and shiny stuff [11-Oct-20 01:41 PM] Battlebrothermichael#5958 Because “fish brain: shiny = exciting” [11-Oct-20 01:41 PM] Battlebrothermichael#5958 And lamias make the shiniest stuff [11-Oct-20 01:41 PM] Battlebrothermichael#5958 I think [11-Oct-20 01:41 PM] Battlebrothermichael#5958 Mermaids would be both [11-Oct-20 01:41 PM] Battlebrothermichael#5958 Direct traders and middle men [11-Oct-20 01:42 PM] Battlebrothermichael#5958 “Hey can you give this to frank up the stream? I’ll know if you haven’t.” [11-Oct-20 01:42 PM] Battlebrothermichael#5958 “Yeah sure, sounds good.” [11-Oct-20 01:43 PM] Driskoll#6334 Someone mention tieflings?

[11-Oct-20 01:47 PM] Battlebrothermichael#5958 I can see that [11-Oct-20 01:47 PM] Battlebrothermichael#5958 Wherever the rivers are linked they will go [11-Oct-20 01:47 PM] Battlebrothermichael#5958 Hell [11-Oct-20 01:47 PM] Battlebrothermichael#5958 Some mermaids could have contracts with the lamia guilds [11-Oct-20 01:47 PM] Fucking Kevin Goddamnit#4454 Like, are you saying the mermoids live *in* Vietlamia? [11-Oct-20 01:48 PM] Battlebrothermichael#5958 Huh [11-Oct-20 01:48 PM] Battlebrothermichael#5958 Probably Asia [11-Oct-20 01:48 PM] Battlebrothermichael#5958 Wait [11-Oct-20 01:48 PM] Battlebrothermichael#5958 The bayou mermaids could be native to Asia [11-Oct-20 01:48 PM] Wargunlock#0868 Do the Bayou mermaids collect pearls? [11-Oct-20 01:48 PM] Fucking Kevin Goddamnit#4454 yee, though Asia's hard to live in. [11-Oct-20 01:48 PM] Fucking Kevin Goddamnit#4454 Whoa, I bet they do. [11-Oct-20 01:48 PM] Battlebrothermichael#5958 Oh hell yes [11-Oct-20 01:48 PM] Fucking Kevin Goddamnit#4454 I bet the Lamia like pearls [11-Oct-20 01:49 PM] Fucking Kevin Goddamnit#4454 They look like beautiful small eggs.

[11-Oct-20 02:22 PM] [NoNameGiven]#3446 so that'd be a longer period of time out of the water, and maybe less threat of death and more elevated risk of heatstroke [11-Oct-20 02:24 PM] Fucking Kevin Goddamnit#4454 Is that how creatures in that specific environment work? Hm. [11-Oct-20 02:28 PM] Fucking Kevin Goddamnit#4454 Imagine a Lamia with a big whicker basket of Mermaids on her back, carrying Mermaid traders through the market to look for deals. Cute.

Like if they have to venture intothe ocean. [11-Oct-20 02:33 PM] mothman#1742 i would say it depends on what type of marine animal they take after [11-Oct-20 02:34 PM] Fucking Kevin Goddamnit#4454 Eh, if they even have that factor [11-Oct-20 02:34 PM] mothman#1742 i dont know why people equate mermaids with fish, the way their tails are shaped is like that of dolphins and whales [11-Oct-20 02:34 PM] Fucking Kevin Goddamnit#4454 Lamia have lots of dif snake types, but do Mermaids, really? [11-Oct-20 02:34 PM] mothman#1742 they would be mammels, not fish [11-Oct-20 02:35 PM] Fucking Kevin Goddamnit#4454 Could be fine, accpetable, if they only had a few color variations on the fish parts but be otherwise the same breed [11-Oct-20 02:35 PM] Fucking Kevin Goddamnit#4454 Also, they do that because of the scalea [11-Oct-20 02:35 PM] mothman#1742 well the lower tail could be different, along with other stuff on their upper body and head [11-Oct-20 02:35 PM] Fucking Kevin Goddamnit#4454 Scales* [11-Oct-20 02:35 PM] mothman#1742 like angler-maids [11-Oct-20 02:35 PM] Fucking Kevin Goddamnit#4454 Whomst [11-Oct-20 02:35 PM] mothman#1742 like an angler fish [11-Oct-20 02:36 PM] mothman#1742 with the little glowy dongles [11-Oct-20 02:36 PM] mothman#1742 {Attachments} https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/725124021506801765/764964618539237426/imaizumi_kagerou_and_wakasagihime_touhou_drawn_by_orz_kagewaka__416f6ce7b7952a37568496aff2c6ea71.png [11-Oct-20 02:37 PM] Fucking Kevin Goddamnit#4454 Ah, I see.

[11-Oct-20 02:46 PM] Cactus Steve#8273 woah moff has a point mermaids would be more like whales than fish [11-Oct-20 02:55 PM] Fucking Kevin Goddamnit#4454 Eh, they're scaled tho [11-Oct-20 02:55 PM] Fucking Kevin Goddamnit#4454 They breathe air, sure [11-Oct-20 02:55 PM] Fucking Kevin Goddamnit#4454 But those are clearly fish parts in most media [11-Oct-20 03:01 PM] mothman#1742 yeah but they get the direction of the flippers on the tail wrong [11-Oct-20 03:01 PM] mothman#1742 on mermaids they are shaped to the side, not upright like a fish would be [11-Oct-20 03:01 PM] mothman#1742 but they are neither fish nor whales, they are mermaids [11-Oct-20 03:02 PM] mothman#1742 they might have parts that look like that, but they arent [11-Oct-20 03:02 PM] mothman#1742 the same way a centaur isnt a horse, it just has equine features [11-Oct-20 03:03 PM] Fucking Kevin Goddamnit#4454 Yee, but in response to whymst niggas think mermaids are more fishy tthan whale-y, it's that reason. [11-Oct-20 03:04 PM] mothman#1742 the same way a harpy isnt a bird, they just have bird features [11-Oct-20 03:04 PM] mothman#1742 technically even bat-folk would be "harpies", since they dont fit into another grouping of "winged humanoids" [11-Oct-20 03:10 PM] Fucking Kevin Goddamnit#4454 Eh, they could be biologically different, as well as their origins [11-Oct-20 04:49 PM] Fucking Kevin Goddamnit#4454 Whoops, I was pinging driskol this whole time.because I thought he was a mermaid nigga but he aint [11-Oct-20 04:49 PM] Fucking Kevin Goddamnit#4454 @Driskoll tieflingpill me. How would they be as ocean traders? [11-Oct-20 04:50 PM] Driskoll#6334 Remember the old Greek napalm boats? [11-Oct-20 04:51 PM] Driskoll#6334 Yee [11-Oct-20 04:52 PM] Driskoll#6334 Just fuckin torch an enemy ships sails [11-Oct-20 04:52 PM] Driskoll#6334 As traders, they'd be about as good as humans would be [11-Oct-20 04:52 PM] Driskoll#6334 But with a prehensile tail to do shit with too [11-Oct-20 04:55 PM] Fucking Kevin Goddamnit#4454 Do they have any cultural concerns? Lamia require a lot of trust building and hate being cheated or betrayed. Are they all scoundrels? [11-Oct-20 04:56 PM] Driskoll#6334 Nah, but they gotta be real cautious because other species, especially elves, are suspicious or hold contempt for them [11-Oct-20 04:57 PM] Driskoll#6334 Because demon blood, ya know [11-Oct-20 05:01 PM] Fucking Kevin Goddamnit#4454 Well it'll be just the same in Lamialand, except the distrust is placed on all foreign peoples. [11-Oct-20 05:01 PM] Fucking Kevin Goddamnit#4454 And is alleviated after a time. [11-Oct-20 05:44 PM] [NoNameGiven]#3446 perhaps there was some cultural event where the lamias got jewed over, and now all their safeguarding while it seems like jew-ery is actually anti-jewery [11-Oct-20 05:44 PM] [NoNameGiven]#3446 here's a question [11-Oct-20 05:44 PM] [NoNameGiven]#3446 how do they react if a lamia is caught being a scoundrel [11-Oct-20 05:49 PM] Fucking Kevin Goddamnit#4454 Depends what level of scoundrel. [11-Oct-20 05:51 PM] Fucking Kevin Goddamnit#4454 Restitution and beatings, often. House arrest for harder shit, forced exile from their clan - tho they dont use that word, clan - and finally death, and if it's really heinous, imprisonment of some sort. [11-Oct-20 05:51 PM] Fucking Kevin Goddamnit#4454 Probably life, and or long stretches in solitary. Having your freedom taken away is a big deal for Lamia. A huge deal, really. [11-Oct-20 05:51 PM] [NoNameGiven]#3446 maybe forced isolation they stop guiding people to their home [11-Oct-20 05:52 PM] [NoNameGiven]#3446 and in the jungle it's nigh impossible for anyone else to find them [11-Oct-20 05:52 PM] Fucking Kevin Goddamnit#4454 Eh, well, that wouldnt really work for a number of reasons that I'm too busy to typw [11-Oct-20 05:52 PM] Fucking Kevin Goddamnit#4454 As often estates are huge and sprawling, but the borderd arent far from other estates [11-Oct-20 05:53 PM] Fucking Kevin Goddamnit#4454 Estates being like family-owned and populated mini city states in some senses. [11-Oct-20 05:53 PM] Fucking Kevin Goddamnit#4454 Often enough they border eachother directly. [11-Oct-20 05:53 PM] Fucking Kevin Goddamnit#4454 And thatd be pu ishing a Lamia's whole family, not the individual, besides. [11-Oct-20 05:55 PM] Fucking Kevin Goddamnit#4454 Exile from their families is a huge deal. Without your family, as a Lamia in Vietlamia, you're sorta nothing. A lot of'm commit suicide, and a few just try sneaking back home, but if its bad enough for exile theres a chance the family wont want him back anyway [11-Oct-20 05:56 PM] Fucking Kevin Goddamnit#4454 Being exiled from your family is a big deal because you likely wont be allowed to stay anywhere else long, if at all. Best hope's either trying to become a merchant from nothing, or make for the few cities and try to eat the crumbs between the cracks. [11-Oct-20 05:56 PM] Fucking Kevin Goddamnit#4454 Prekonvgrnce anyway.

There's always a bigger fish [19-Oct-20 03:40 PM] Fucking Kevin Goddamnit#4454 Why did the Giant always look upward? [19-Oct-20 03:40 PM] Fucking Kevin Goddamnit#4454 She was scared of heights [19-Oct-20 03:59 PM] Battlebrothermichael#5958 Hmmm [19-Oct-20 03:59 PM] Battlebrothermichael#5958 Lamia name patterns [19-Oct-20 04:00 PM] Battlebrothermichael#5958 Well, depends on how much into Vietnamese we want to go [19-Oct-20 04:00 PM] Battlebrothermichael#5958 I’ll answer the language question you had first because that will help with the names [19-Oct-20 04:09 PM] Battlebrothermichael#5958 First standard pronunciation {Attachments} https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/725124021506801765/767887148992167986/Good.m4a [19-Oct-20 04:09 PM] Battlebrothermichael#5958 Coastal pronunciation {Attachments} https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/725124021506801765/767887192534024222/Goood.m4a [19-Oct-20 04:10 PM] Battlebrothermichael#5958 @Fucking Kevin Goddamnit [19-Oct-20 04:10 PM] Battlebrothermichael#5958 It’s really not much a difference, but it’s noticeable [19-Oct-20 04:11 PM] Battlebrothermichael#5958 There is also a difference in “-asks” ending words in Cali and other coastal places as well [19-Oct-20 04:12 PM] Battlebrothermichael#5958 A common pronunciation example here is words ending in “-asks” or “-sks ” sounds will be pronounced with an “x” sound [19-Oct-20 04:12 PM] Battlebrothermichael#5958 Such as “masks” [19-Oct-20 04:13 PM] Fucking Kevin Goddamnit#4454 Mmm... I suppose I see that. Though I generally view the uhh... "cali" good, let's call it, as just an extended good. Something you use when things are mildly good, but not great. [19-Oct-20 04:13 PM] Battlebrothermichael#5958 Instead of the hard “ck” sound there is a soft “xs” sound [19-Oct-20 04:14 PM] Fucking Kevin Goddamnit#4454 "How are you feeling after just cumming inside that hot girl, Kevin?" "Gooood" "Looks like our garden will be making extra beets this year Kevin" "Goood" [19-Oct-20 04:14 PM] Fucking Kevin Goddamnit#4454 I've used the goood' in your example a fair amount in life, never really thought about it being that regional, but I suppose it may be. [19-Oct-20 04:15 PM] Fucking Kevin Goddamnit#4454 >x sound pronunciation Shit nigger you' right. [19-Oct-20 04:15 PM] Battlebrothermichael#5958 People say Californians don’t have an accent but it can easily be told with the long pronunciation of vowels like that [19-Oct-20 04:15 PM] Fucking Kevin Goddamnit#4454 There's two types of Cali accidents. 1970's/80's news voices, which aren't quite the same as modern news voices, were pretty Cali-esque I'd say [19-Oct-20 04:15 PM] Fucking Kevin Goddamnit#4454 in addition to the "lower" accents, like the ones you're pointing out now. [19-Oct-20 04:16 PM] Battlebrothermichael#5958 Yee [19-Oct-20 04:16 PM] Battlebrothermichael#5958 So lamias mug he speak in a longer drawn out vowels like that [19-Oct-20 04:16 PM] Battlebrothermichael#5958 Which is sort of a play on the “hahah, snake creature says a words like sssssss” trope [19-Oct-20 04:17 PM] Battlebrothermichael#5958 But in a linguistically viable way with irl examples [19-Oct-20 04:17 PM] Fucking Kevin Goddamnit#4454 Hmm. I'd like to hear a bunch more examples, if possible. [19-Oct-20 04:17 PM] Fucking Kevin Goddamnit#4454 Like would a Lamia with an accent say "Kook" instead of "Cook" [19-Oct-20 04:17 PM] Fucking Kevin Goddamnit#4454 Feels very German tbh. [19-Oct-20 04:17 PM] Battlebrothermichael#5958 Yes [19-Oct-20 04:18 PM] Fucking Kevin Goddamnit#4454 My great ... great. Yeah, my graet-great grandfather, August, pronounced Sugar as "Soogah" [19-Oct-20 04:18 PM] Battlebrothermichael#5958 They would also pronounce the “ck” sound in mask very hard [19-Oct-20 04:18 PM] Fucking Kevin Goddamnit#4454 he was, also, Very German. [19-Oct-20 04:18 PM] Battlebrothermichael#5958 MasCk [19-Oct-20 04:18 PM] Fucking Kevin Goddamnit#4454 If you're up for more voice examples, hit me with that Mask example vs normal. [19-Oct-20 04:20 PM] Battlebrothermichael#5958 I would use the International Phonetic Alphabet to type it but I don’t have it on hand and I really am not familiar with it [19-Oct-20 04:20 PM] Battlebrothermichael#5958 But sure can do a voiced version [19-Oct-20 04:21 PM] Fucking Kevin Goddamnit#4454 Same, unfamiliar.

[19-Oct-20 04:22 PM] Fucking Kevin Goddamnit#4454 I'm not sure how much you intended that but I'm suddenly reminded of my childhood in the asian-y-est part of Cali. [19-Oct-20 04:23 PM] Battlebrothermichael#5958 :Jerry: [19-Oct-20 04:23 PM] Battlebrothermichael#5958 I live there rn so I hear pronunciations like this a lot [19-Oct-20 04:26 PM] Fucking Kevin Goddamnit#4454 >LA >Asiany [19-Oct-20 04:26 PM] Fucking Kevin Goddamnit#4454 Nice try Southerner [19-Oct-20 04:27 PM] Battlebrothermichael#5958 Ever been to Rosemead? [19-Oct-20 04:27 PM] Fucking Kevin Goddamnit#4454 More like Cringemead. [19-Oct-20 04:28 PM] Fucking Kevin Goddamnit#4454 Ever been to the bay area as a whole pre 2005? [19-Oct-20 04:28 PM] Fucking Kevin Goddamnit#4454 /dab [19-Oct-20 04:28 PM] [NoNameGiven]#3446 on the pacific coast blacks and the odd latinos make stinks about being important minorities, but if there were no whites they'd have to deal with the azns [19-Oct-20 04:28 PM] Fucking Kevin Goddamnit#4454 Yup. [19-Oct-20 04:28 PM] Fucking Kevin Goddamnit#4454 And Asians would put them through a meat grinder. [19-Oct-20 04:29 PM] Battlebrothermichael#5958 >Bay Area pre-2005 Ah, well you got me there [19-Oct-20 04:29 PM] Fucking Kevin Goddamnit#4454 Anyway I can see that as a Vietnamese accent for sure. Wheremst does the German hit though? [19-Oct-20 04:30 PM] Battlebrothermichael#5958 With the harshness of the pronunciation [19-Oct-20 04:30 PM] Battlebrothermichael#5958 And probably word structure [19-Oct-20 04:30 PM] Fucking Kevin Goddamnit#4454 Mmm.. Define the harshness more. [19-Oct-20 04:31 PM] Battlebrothermichael#5958 If I remember my linguistics right, German doesn’t have many softer sounds [19-Oct-20 04:31 PM] Battlebrothermichael#5958 Almost all of the words come out with a harder pronunciation [19-Oct-20 04:31 PM] Fucking Kevin Goddamnit#4454 Also, I was wondering, since >Vietnam< how much French influence should there be in anything? A good handful of Vietnamese placenames are French, as I understand it. [19-Oct-20 04:31 PM] Battlebrothermichael#5958 Kind of why it sounds angry [19-Oct-20 04:31 PM] Fucking Kevin Goddamnit#4454 A pal of mine is named after a Regio there. Sounds Vietnamesey as fuck, but nope, turns out to be a French word. [19-Oct-20 04:31 PM] Fucking Kevin Goddamnit#4454 When I imagine Angry Vietnamese I just think Chinese tbh. [19-Oct-20 04:32 PM] [NoNameGiven]#3446 my viet friends agree vietnamese is asian-french bastard language [19-Oct-20 04:32 PM] Fucking Kevin Goddamnit#4454 Mm. [19-Oct-20 04:33 PM] Fucking Kevin Goddamnit#4454 I was thinking the Lamia Royalty would have their own language, and was thinking it might be more French-based. Not sure though. [19-Oct-20 04:34 PM] Battlebrothermichael#5958 Hmmm [19-Oct-20 04:34 PM] Battlebrothermichael#5958 French based would be interesting [19-Oct-20 04:34 PM] Battlebrothermichael#5958 As most French pronunciation is a bit softer ||iirc|| [19-Oct-20 04:34 PM] Battlebrothermichael#5958 Hence why it sounds like a nice language [19-Oct-20 04:34 PM] Fucking Kevin Goddamnit#4454 Yeah kinda. Or at least a hell of a lot more flowing. [19-Oct-20 04:34 PM] Battlebrothermichael#5958 Yes [19-Oct-20 04:34 PM] Battlebrothermichael#5958 So it would make sense if the lamia royalty have that as their language [19-Oct-20 04:35 PM] Battlebrothermichael#5958 Kind of like the difference between a cockney accent and the English royalty accent [19-Oct-20 04:35 PM] Battlebrothermichael#5958 Except [19-Oct-20 04:35 PM] Fucking Kevin Goddamnit#4454 Something like it, at least. Still very similar to the baseline standard Lamia language. [19-Oct-20 04:35 PM] Battlebrothermichael#5958 A bit more extreme [19-Oct-20 04:35 PM] Fucking Kevin Goddamnit#4454 The peasantry can't really understand it, but it's not hard to learn if they know the base language. S'just, most are never really inclined to. Plus it's probably viewed as very special. [19-Oct-20 04:36 PM] Fucking Kevin Goddamnit#4454 So maybe the richest merchants learn it to be swag in front of their merchant friends [19-Oct-20 04:36 PM] Fucking Kevin Goddamnit#4454 and government functionaries might learn it because, perhaps, much of their official government paperwork not explicitly intended for public consumption is in that language. [19-Oct-20 04:38 PM] Battlebrothermichael#5958 Yems [19-Oct-20 04:38 PM] Battlebrothermichael#5958 Good thinking [19-Oct-20 04:38 PM] Battlebrothermichael#5958 Would it be considered a sacred language? [19-Oct-20 04:39 PM] Battlebrothermichael#5958 Or could anyone learn it if they could be fucked to do it? [19-Oct-20 04:39 PM] Fucking Kevin Goddamnit#4454 Going back though. Vietnamese + German. Still hard to imagine. Also what was that other bit, with the uhhh... animal noise ish ness, you mentioned. [19-Oct-20 04:40 PM] Fucking Kevin Goddamnit#4454 >Sacred Ah, interesting. Hmm... It might not be tbh. I'd think Whitesnake could speak either language at will.. and aside from being associated with the Royalty, which are viewed as demigods in a sense, I cna't imagine much importance on the language itself in a religious context historically. [19-Oct-20 04:40 PM] Fucking Kevin Goddamnit#4454 Maybe it's kinda like Latin [19-Oct-20 04:40 PM] Fucking Kevin Goddamnit#4454 you don't *gotta* be into it for religious reasons to know and learn it. [19-Oct-20 04:40 PM] Fucking Kevin Goddamnit#4454 Many people aren't. Maybe.... 1/3rd of the people who speak it globally are prolly just doing it for autistic roman related shit. [19-Oct-20 04:40 PM] Fucking Kevin Goddamnit#4454 But it's still got that heavy religious association. [19-Oct-20 04:41 PM] Fucking Kevin Goddamnit#4454 Soo.... Yes, actually, I see merit in that now. [19-Oct-20 04:41 PM] Fucking Kevin Goddamnit#4454 Semi-sacred. [19-Oct-20 04:41 PM] Fucking Kevin Goddamnit#4454 "Oh, hello Peasant #135235. Are you learning the royal language to become a government functionary, or because you're *really* into Whitesnake and Dadrock?" [19-Oct-20 04:42 PM] Fucking Kevin Goddamnit#4454 Modern Vietlamia government probably switched a lot of it's record keeping - the non ceremonial stuff for sure - to standard Vietam...ia? Vietlamiaese? Vietlamese? one of those. [19-Oct-20 04:43 PM] Fucking Kevin Goddamnit#4454 Anyway, standard vietlamia language, since with the internet and phones and modern farming and modern vehicles, Government records and mid level stuff suddenly becomes a lot more accessible and potentially worth poking around in for the average Lamia. [19-Oct-20 04:43 PM] Battlebrothermichael#5958 >Vietlamese [19-Oct-20 04:43 PM] Battlebrothermichael#5958 Kek [19-Oct-20 04:43 PM] Battlebrothermichael#5958 I think that’s a good idea [19-Oct-20 04:44 PM] Battlebrothermichael#5958 Almost like how the church did back in the medieval era [19-Oct-20 04:44 PM] Battlebrothermichael#5958 You had to know Latin to read the Bible because it was holy and such [19-Oct-20 04:44 PM] Fucking Kevin Goddamnit#4454 Might give more reason for dedicated Whitesnake priests and priestesses to be a thing. Somebody's gotta be there to be able to read out the bible for holy holidays and such. [19-Oct-20 04:50 PM] Battlebrothermichael#5958 Yes [19-Oct-20 04:50 PM] Battlebrothermichael#5958 Chant along like in a catholic mass and such [19-Oct-20 04:58 PM] Fucking Kevin Goddamnit#4454 So, the German influence, how's that work? And what's the Royal language like? Vietnamese + French? Or Viet+German+French? I'd imagine the former. [19-Oct-20 04:59 PM] Fucking Kevin Goddamnit#4454 ANd what about that uhhh "weird lulling snarling" description. [19-Oct-20 04:59 PM] Fucking Kevin Goddamnit#4454 What's Lulling even mean in this context? [19-Oct-20 04:59 PM] Battlebrothermichael#5958 Uhh [19-Oct-20 04:59 PM] Battlebrothermichael#5958 In that context I mean like the coastal Cali noises [19-Oct-20 05:00 PM] Battlebrothermichael#5958 With the long lulling “o” and “u” the vowels [19-Oct-20 05:01 PM] Fucking Kevin Goddamnit#4454 Ahh. I took that as some animalistic thing, of... well, somesort anyway. [19-Oct-20 05:02 PM] Battlebrothermichael#5958 Well the snarl yeah [19-Oct-20 05:02 PM] Battlebrothermichael#5958 Like [19-Oct-20 05:02 PM] Battlebrothermichael#5958 Fuck I don’t know the best way to put it [19-Oct-20 05:02 PM] Battlebrothermichael#5958 Like a scoff almost [19-Oct-20 05:06 PM] Fucking Kevin Goddamnit#4454 So we have like uhh... Threeish options. Option 1 is just making the nameing scheme up from nothing. Option 2 is making the naming scheme up from an already existing fictional language - Tolkein stuff, Dwarf Fortress language maybe, whatever. Option 3 is taking Viet, French, and German names and trying to either fully or partly blend them. [19-Oct-20 05:06 PM] Fucking Kevin Goddamnit#4454 Or option 4, I suppose, just straight up go with normal ass Vietnamese names. [19-Oct-20 05:06 PM] Battlebrothermichael#5958 Hmmm [19-Oct-20 05:06 PM] Battlebrothermichael#5958 Option three sounds fun [19-Oct-20 05:06 PM] Battlebrothermichael#5958 *but* [19-Oct-20 05:06 PM] Battlebrothermichael#5958 Four might be more practical [19-Oct-20 05:07 PM] Fucking Kevin Goddamnit#4454 Maybe. Do you have any thoughts on how one would even do number 3? [19-Oct-20 05:08 PM] Fucking Kevin Goddamnit#4454 Couple Snake girls named Greta slitherin' around with their best friends named Su Bong Bing Suh, and Phuong [19-Oct-20 05:11 PM] Battlebrothermichael#5958 :Jerry: [19-Oct-20 05:12 PM] Battlebrothermichael#5958 Yeah that’s the thing [19-Oct-20 05:12 PM] Battlebrothermichael#5958 I don’t know how [19-Oct-20 05:14 PM] Blackhawk342#0955 Take vietnamese names and say that their language is too difficult for humans to pronounce [19-Oct-20 05:14 PM] Blackhawk342#0955 So they use these names for interacting with outside races [19-Oct-20 05:16 PM] Battlebrothermichael#5958 HAH [19-Oct-20 05:16 PM] Fucking Kevin Goddamnit#4454 Eh, say I did, I'd still be curious what a reasonable fusion of Viet and German/French names would be. Plus I've got a few scenes in mind already where characters are speaking to eachother in Vietlam... ian? Vietlamian... Eh. Speaking to eachother in Lamia. [19-Oct-20 05:16 PM] Fucking Kevin Goddamnit#4454 If Harpy and I, as Californians, were in China on a business trip where hte natives couldn't say our names at all, we'd still call ourselves our actual names in private conversation, presumably. [19-Oct-20 05:17 PM] Fucking Kevin Goddamnit#4454 "Ah, Jing Fu Ding Dong- I mean, Harpy. Good to see you." [19-Oct-20 05:18 PM] Battlebrothermichael#5958 That’s a strong maybe [19-Oct-20 05:19 PM] Battlebrothermichael#5958 Because ESL people actually switch off which names they use in their private conversations [19-Oct-20 05:19 PM] Battlebrothermichael#5958 Some of them get really attached to their “American” names [19-Oct-20 05:22 PM] Fucking Kevin Goddamnit#4454 Yeah, but that's after being immersed in that country and probably viewing it very much as home. [19-Oct-20 05:22 PM] Battlebrothermichael#5958 Depends [19-Oct-20 05:22 PM] Battlebrothermichael#5958 Some just do it for practice speaking the language [19-Oct-20 05:22 PM] Battlebrothermichael#5958 Others because they are attached [19-Oct-20 05:22 PM] Battlebrothermichael#5958 Some do it because they never want to go back [19-Oct-20 05:23 PM] Battlebrothermichael#5958 And this might be all within a week of being here [19-Oct-20 05:25 PM] Fucking Kevin Goddamnit#4454 I suppose some of it might be similar to screen names. [19-Oct-20 05:25 PM] Fucking Kevin Goddamnit#4454 Some of my niggas still call me Voss despite me not using that name in a very long time, and never in anything 4chan related. [19-Oct-20 05:25 PM] Fucking Kevin Goddamnit#4454 I've heard the name called once or twice irl before and almost responded to it/ [19-Oct-20 05:25 PM] Battlebrothermichael#5958 Voss? [19-Oct-20 05:25 PM] Battlebrothermichael#5958 That sounds oddly familiar [19-Oct-20 05:26 PM] Fucking Kevin Goddamnit#4454 Mmm. S'a last name, as I recall. Swedish or German, I think. [19-Oct-20 05:26 PM] Battlebrothermichael#5958 Also yes [19-Oct-20 05:26 PM] Battlebrothermichael#5958 Screen names is a good analogy [19-Oct-20 05:27 PM] Fucking Kevin Goddamnit#4454 Oh - point being though, I don't dislike that. I like it, in fact, kind of. So yeah, I suppose... I was also considering having Mama Snake have a human name she uses, and basically "is" for this half of her life. [19-Oct-20 05:27 PM] Fucking Kevin Goddamnit#4454 Also, separate though. We talked about Lamia life spans a few times, y'said you'd like them to be a little longer lived than humans, on average? 5 years? 10? 15? [19-Oct-20 05:28 PM] Fucking Kevin Goddamnit#4454 Howmst much longer would their ||fertile period|| be [19-Oct-20 05:31 PM] Battlebrothermichael#5958 Maybe 10-15 years longer than humans [19-Oct-20 05:31 PM] Battlebrothermichael#5958 Uhhh [19-Oct-20 05:31 PM] Battlebrothermichael#5958 Maybe until around 50? [19-Oct-20 05:31 PM] Fucking Kevin Goddamnit#4454 True terror. [19-Oct-20 05:32 PM] Fucking Kevin Goddamnit#4454 I guess Vietnamese names... maybe with a German tilt if it can be managed, along with French-ier names for the Royalty and the Nobility. [19-Oct-20 05:34 PM] Fucking Kevin Goddamnit#4454 Vietnam's got some weird ass name meanings. Like the female name "Bian" apparently basically means "Woman with Secrets" {Reactions} excuseme [19-Oct-20 05:35 PM] Fucking Kevin Goddamnit#4454 Apparently the name Chau, which is pronounced Zow somehow, means "Like a pearl" which I imagine would be popular amongst the Vietlamia, considering our discussion of their love of pearls. [19-Oct-20 05:38 PM] Battlebrothermichael#5958 Huh [19-Oct-20 05:38 PM] Battlebrothermichael#5958 Interesting [19-Oct-20 05:38 PM] Battlebrothermichael#5958 Maybe Zow would be a popular family name? [19-Oct-20 05:38 PM] Battlebrothermichael#5958 Everyone adopted it early on and it all stayed? [19-Oct-20 05:39 PM] Fucking Kevin Goddamnit#4454 I could see the Merchants or Nobles trying for that. The equivalent of somebody in 1750's London having the last name of, like, "King" or something. One'a those kinds of deals. [19-Oct-20 05:40 PM] Fucking Kevin Goddamnit#4454 Since I could see some families wanting to reflect concepts like hard work, or uh... industriousness, righteousness, or something that would reflect their martial prowess in some way. [19-Oct-20 05:40 PM] Fucking Kevin Goddamnit#4454 Like, [19-Oct-20 05:40 PM] Fucking Kevin Goddamnit#4454 my name, when translated to it's original meaning [19-Oct-20 05:40 PM] Fucking Kevin Goddamnit#4454 basically is uh [19-Oct-20 05:41 PM] Fucking Kevin Goddamnit#4454 "Warrior Warrior Supplanter/Usurper" {Reactions} kitty [19-Oct-20 05:41 PM] Fucking Kevin Goddamnit#4454 Half the male names you run into are basically either 'Warrior' or 'Some good-pay-for-1600 profession' [19-Oct-20 05:44 PM] Fucking Kevin Goddamnit#4454 Huh. I think @Cactus Steve might be especially interested to hear this, Hue, like Hue City, apparently means Lily Flower. [19-Oct-20 05:44 PM] Fucking Kevin Goddamnit#4454 "Lily Flower City" doesn't sound menacing at all, like I've always associated with Hue. [19-Oct-20 05:45 PM] Cactus Steve#8273 well, you learn something everyday [19-Oct-20 05:46 PM] Fucking Kevin Goddamnit#4454 Looking through all these Vietnamese names, the proper way to pronounce them is coming back to me. Makes me miss San Jose, from before it was flooded with spics. [19-Oct-20 06:14 PM] Fucking Kevin Goddamnit#4454 "Anyone applying for Vietnamese nationality must adopt a Vietnamese name." [19-Oct-20 06:14 PM] Fucking Kevin Goddamnit#4454 Neat. [19-Oct-20 06:14 PM] Fucking Kevin Goddamnit#4454 Also, Vietnamese apparently has a handful of names that are spelled the exact same way, but pronounced differently, and are considered completely different names. [19-Oct-20 06:14 PM] Fucking Kevin Goddamnit#4454 Like Kevin might be, well, "Kevin" or it might be "Keveeen" or "Kivin" or some shit [19-Oct-20 06:14 PM] Fucking Kevin Goddamnit#4454 each of those being different. [19-Oct-20 06:15 PM] Fucking Kevin Goddamnit#4454 And to reference a person by name, because there are few last names in that country, they refer to the person by middle and last name. [19-Oct-20 06:22 PM] Fucking Kevin Goddamnit#4454 {Attachments} https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/725124021506801765/767920648701607936/First-Names-Vietnamese.png [19-Oct-20 06:25 PM] Battlebrothermichael#5958 Huh [19-Oct-20 06:25 PM] Battlebrothermichael#5958 That’s interesting [19-Oct-20 06:27 PM] Fucking Kevin Goddamnit#4454 I love those asian hoodoos [19-Oct-20 06:27 PM] Fucking Kevin Goddamnit#4454 Ancient volcano-clits, which we have here in the South West US commonly enough, but with actual greenery on and around them. [19-Oct-20 06:27 PM] Fucking Kevin Goddamnit#4454 Really has an aesthetic to it. [19-Oct-20 08:27 PM] Infinitevegetals#7795 That’s some cool landscape [19-Oct-20 08:27 PM] Infinitevegetals#7795 I really love that mountain jungle aesthetic kind of in SE Asia and parts of China [20-Oct-20 08:02 PM] Fucking Kevin Goddamnit#4454 I fell asleep for a few hours after a single big meal in the middle of the day. [20-Oct-20 08:03 PM] Fucking Kevin Goddamnit#4454 Huh. [20-Oct-20 08:03 PM] Battlebrothermichael#5958 To write the lamia you must become the lamia XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX [21-Oct-20 12:15 AM] Fucking Kevin Goddamnit#4454 @Battlebrothermichael so, Lamia can taste lies. To what extent does that go? We talkin' just fear sweat? Or is there a distinct taste difference between the different emotions, for them? [21-Oct-20 12:16 AM] Fucking Kevin Goddamnit#4454 Also is this perhaps... What's the term.. [21-Oct-20 12:16 AM] Fucking Kevin Goddamnit#4454 Semi-magical for them? [21-Oct-20 12:16 AM] Battlebrothermichael#5958 I’d say it would do with body heat [21-Oct-20 12:16 AM] Battlebrothermichael#5958 Or less “lies” directly, more like stress and stuff [21-Oct-20 12:17 AM] Battlebrothermichael#5958 When you lie and get scared you might run hotter, get a little sweaty [21-Oct-20 12:17 AM] Battlebrothermichael#5958 A Lamia might be able to sniff those little differences [21-Oct-20 12:17 AM] Fucking Kevin Goddamnit#4454 Mmm. So using situation + intuition + body heat + maybe fear sweat smell and taste [21-Oct-20 12:17 AM] Battlebrothermichael#5958 Yes [21-Oct-20 12:17 AM] Battlebrothermichael#5958 Like that [21-Oct-20 12:18 AM] Fucking Kevin Goddamnit#4454 I hear thst different kinds of emotions elicit different signs in sweat. Not sure how true that is. [21-Oct-20 12:20 AM] Battlebrothermichael#5958 Idk how true that is either [21-Oct-20 12:20 AM] Battlebrothermichael#5958 But here [21-Oct-20 12:20 AM] Battlebrothermichael#5958 It is true enough [21-Oct-20 12:21 AM] Fucking Kevin Goddamnit#4454 Lamia's pheromone tasting abilities. [21-Oct-20 12:21 AM] Battlebrothermichael#5958 :Jerry: XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX [22-Oct-20 07:49 PM] Fucking Kevin Goddamnit#4454 There's an idea. Lamia Injun raiders? @Battlebrothermichael [22-Oct-20 07:50 PM] Battlebrothermichael#5958 Lamia injun raiders? [22-Oct-20 07:50 PM] Battlebrothermichael#5958 Go on... [22-Oct-20 07:53 PM] Fucking Kevin Goddamnit#4454 Was thinkin' of that Lamia injun I posted a pic of yesterday in inspiration or w/e. Would be some of the Lamia native-ish to Fankasia's Mojave and similar areas. Very warlike and tribalistic. Lots of raiding for food and resources and then scattering to the wind. Very mobile and very good trackers.n [22-Oct-20 07:54 PM] Battlebrothermichael#5958 How would that go with their idea of being free? [22-Oct-20 07:57 PM] Battlebrothermichael#5958 Still sounds badass [22-Oct-20 07:59 PM] Fucking Kevin Goddamnit#4454 Well, I was thinking that the land really tore these ones up. Their language is a really fucked version of Lamia that most Lamia can barely understand, they've completely lost their history and may have taken up some weird form of spirit animal worship. I'm imagining shamans letting themselves get bit by certain local snakes that would normally kill us, but just gives them really bad trips. They probably prefer being free as a consequence of their lifestyle, but aren't against slavery and limiting freedoms like most Lamia are. [22-Oct-20 08:00 PM] Fucking Kevin Goddamnit#4454 Prolly dont even know about whitesnake. He knows about them only vaguely since they dont pray to him. [22-Oct-20 08:00 PM] Fucking Kevin Goddamnit#4454 Very low tech. Also very small, thin, compared to most Lamia. Maybe Garden Snake length, tho I imagine many are desert snakd types. Rattlers and the like. [22-Oct-20 08:02 PM] Fucking Kevin Goddamnit#4454 Maybe real big on camouflage, maybe what magic users they do have really focus on stealth - not tooo different from the Vietlamia tbh. [22-Oct-20 08:09 PM] Battlebrothermichael#5958 Ahhhh [22-Oct-20 08:10 PM] Battlebrothermichael#5958 I see [22-Oct-20 08:10 PM] Battlebrothermichael#5958 This sounds badass [22-Oct-20 08:10 PM] Battlebrothermichael#5958 I like it [22-Oct-20 08:12 PM] Fucking Kevin Goddamnit#4454 I wonder if theyd be light enough to ride horses. Hmm. [22-Oct-20 08:13 PM] MandoSpam#7812 Another unique culture change of a race being tossed in a unfamiliar region I like it. Kind of reminds me how the desert elves are different compared to other elves in terms of attitudes and such. [22-Oct-20 08:16 PM] Fucking Kevin Goddamnit#4454 Found it {Attachments} https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/725124021506801765/769036374983704576/indian_lamia_by_ken_toki_dct1w80-fullview.png XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX
