Darkness on the Edge of Town, Pierre Putman

[tenkaboutart]

Is there a S-rank risk beast?

No, a decision I made pretty quickly into writing the story is that I did not want to ever establish a “strongest” risk beast for multiple reasons: 1) in a setting and story that doesn’t run on pure power levels a single thing being the Strongest doesn’t make sense in the first place.2) establishing something locks me into a scenario where I can either now only make things weaker than it, limiting my creativity, or it puts me in a dragonball conundrum where I introduce repeating “this guy is the strongest i promise”.This is why the A-rank is instead set up as a “top 100″ (though i havent decided if its top 100 or 500 yet, leaning to 100) most dangerous to people.

On the other hand putting up the singular A-Rank hunter is fine since it only represents “they’re the best at THIS” and is far more temporary of a position.

Evolution of Danger tidbits

-Steve is a telekinetic and pyrokinetic who isn't lazy being able to move things with his mind.

-Mercy is a witch and has access a lot of magic styles and when not fighting she does get lazy around the home.

-Malachai has no supernatural or otherwise abilities aside from near perfect markmanship and access to a set of enchanted firearms.

[evolutionofdanger]

Evolution of Danger tidbits

-Mercy can't swim and tends to simply alter her density to float sometimes when she goes to the beach or lake or nearby rivers.

-Malachai can swim but he tends to panic in public spaces due to intense paranoia.

-Steve is very chill about swimming and probably the most stable of the trio.

Her name is Sarita and she’s a maneater at 50+ from head to tip. She’s very nice other wise!

i think what is so especially fascinating about the mcelroy brothers and their comedy is the fact that that have essentially made language itself a source a comedy.

what i mean is that often, when you think of a good joke, you often think of the content of the joke - of course, the delivery of a joke is important (you can ruin a perfectly good joke if you say it the wrong way), but overall when someone tells a joke, they put more focus on getting across the absurdity/hilarity of the material of the joke rather than putting emphasis on the words used to say it.

that’s not what the mcelroy brothers do at all, though. they do the exact opposite - with the way they say things, they’re able to transform quite mundane things and scenarios into ridiculous imagery that we can’t help but laugh at.

i’ll just use this line from the MBMBAM TV show pilot as an example - what Griffin is saying here, is, essentially, “I saw a video of a spider molting and I was absolutely terrified”, which, on its own, isn’t really incredibly funny. however, Griffin gives such a brilliant twist in the form of the words “my eyes went to hell”, which is hilarious because, essentially, it’s complete nonsense! your eyes can’t go to hell (and even if they could, you’d expect the rest of your body to follow), and yet, somehow, there’s a beautiful kind of logic to it -you can clearly get a mental image of you looking at something so horrifying that your eyes are instantly banished to the seventh ring of the underworld as a result. another line from the same show is when Travis runs away from a spider in fear, and they state “oh, Travis is going to space”. most people would just reemphasize the event (”oh, there Travis goes” or “he’s running away!”), but by stating he’s going “to space” makes it that much funnier, because, once again, there’s a logic to the absurdity of the words - he’s so terrified he might as well hitch a spaceship and get out of our solar system as fast as he can.

the mcelroy brothers are brilliant at what they do, not only because they can find good-natured humor in ordinary things, but because they have developed a way to use words as another level of comedy - they are infinitely quotable because the way they say things tickles both our minds and our ears. and that, really, is one of the major reasons why their brand of comedy is as popular as it is - the jokes are from the mcelroy brother lexicon, and they’re all the more better for it.

I agree wholeheartedly but I feel like you’re glossing over the fact that he says Rancho

[thehappinessmachine]

Griffin using the word Rancho is absolutely hilarious, it’s true, but it’s a biiiit different than the concept I was going for - “Rancho” is a meaningless nonsense word that the brothers used to replace the word “tarantula” to make it sound less like “tarantula” (the joke being that they were trying to make spiders seem nice and adoptable), while the examples I gave above were more about taking mundane concepts and situations and giving them a distinct, visual, and very absurd twists of thought in the form of words (i.e “his face looks like seven pterodactyls”)! 

So, it’s a similar thing, but it’s not exactly an example of that certain aspect of humor I was trying my best to analyze.

another Evolution of Danger version of my friend @captain–poseidon​ this time! I’m doing these for more of my friends than i thought honestly! theres like 4 EoD doppelgangers now. Haven’t figured out a name for this gal and her pet yet but they’re an Enviromentalist in EoD, which is to say a more advanced form of hippie with an extremely powerful tie to the planet’s ecosystems themselves. They could speak to trees if they wanted honestly. For mutuals im always willing to do this sorta thing

[evolvinggator]

DESIGNED AN OC OFF MY GOOD FRIEND @awokenintime in my worldbuilding universe of “Evolution of Danger” Her name is “Jam” Jamilyn Kenny, shes 29 and a monster hunting guild leader due to her strength and other abilities. She formed the Steel Fangs to give a home to misfits and hunters unable to gain admission to other larger guilds. Despite its small and odd roster the Steel Fangs are a force to be reckoned with.

List of General Occupations In Paradien

Gonna put a short description next to each job, thanks Spy for the spark to get this going!

Armorer - These braze souls are the inventors of the more violent type and are main suppliers to Hunters and Watchmen alike and really anyone willing to shell out for their works of mayhem or protection.

Hunter- What the name implies! Hunters take on any number of monster in the world or off world for that matter. They employ any number of methods to their hunting from blood rituals to the latest sci-fi tech like nanites. There are even subsects of Hunters that assist in the hunt itself. Very Rare examples being Breeders and Tamers Xenobiologist- These guys handle the study and categorical information gathering on megafauna around the universe which is to say simply they study all monsters under the suns. Nearly as hard to become as hunters! Eco-Guides- These hermit like individuals live  in the monstro-infested areas for whatever reasons they can motivate themselves with. They feed information to the Xenobiologist and other scientists who work with monsters. They also survive as the first warning against major monster movements. Environmentalists- These scientists study the ecosystem on a universal scale. From a thunder desert to an undersea jungle these scientists know their way around any number of world.

Settlers- These frontier workers do what most people consider to be the back bone for new settlements on foreign or monster covered planets. They handle any number of construction and management of frontier towns be it by natural terms or fast super tech.

Watchmen- Just as potent and strong as Hunters but with a more stationary work station. Watchmen are a branch of the government in terms of defense and are unique form of military as well. GHG Worker (General Hunting Guild)- While not as intense or physical as their other partners in the universe of Paradien these folks handle all the paper work, red tape or any other official business in order for Hunters and their partners to work efficiently.

XenoDoctors- Much like xenobiologist these XD’s are very good at their jobs in healing anyone who comes in their care be they human, werewolf, alterinian and really anyone living. They manage any number or species of patient, some XenoDoc’s are capable of assisting in megafuana care but not all. Monstro Scout Leader - These volunteers but with GHG assistance, manage Jr Hunters or kids under the age of 18 who are ineligible for the actual Hunter examination. They are Den Mothers or Scout Leaders who help in all the activities for the little ones. 

Monstro Scouts- Children under the age of 18 who want to maybe one day become actual hunters assist in both fun time activities as well as actual much smaller monsters that are under proper supervision and Danger rank.  Planetary Observers - These intellectuals watch over entire planets or planetary systems monitoring all important information to safeguard the general population. They almost seem like angels with their ethereal appearance and AI assistance and rarely return to planetside once they take up the position. General Worker - These folks manage almost all of the non-monster related work from baker, driver to just a waiter. The mundane of the mundane. Doesn’t essentially include political officials cuz those folks are never mundane. Haha -nudge nudge- Inter dimensional Teller- Since magic is pretty commonplace amongst other things. These folks manage magic users if they try and pull too much magic/essence or other dimensional energy. But its a hard job with barely any workers given the very high mortality rate. Even higher than Hunters and Xenobiologist but only by a small margin even with the smaller work population. There are a few jobs I’ll include later on but this is the general majority of unique and special ones in Evolution of Danger/Paradien.

For those here,

Imma really dig deep to get content flowing on this blog. HERE COMES THE FLOOD FOLKS , maybe idk sorta

[mtjester]

As a female martial artist, when I see artists draw female characters preparing to do any sort of martial arts, and they’re wearing any bra other than a hardcore high-impact sports bra (especially if they’re decently endowed), I’m like…their titty gonna fall out. It straight gonna fall out. Seen it happen. It’s a real problem. Lots of movement and impact–you gotta make the proper adjustments. Some ladies even wear two sports bras, like the yoga kind and then the running kind. Definitely not anything low-cut cuz…that titty? Gonna fall out.
