Also my first time painting more than a zaku's eye, it's the paint for Jesterby's face! ...it's nail polish .w. Don't expect me to do panel lining, though. You can't make me.
Hey everyone, looks like the “cat summoned for jury duty” was ai generated - even has the ai symbol at the top. Thanks for the heads up, @cannot-all-throw-inkpots . My apologies- I did not realize when I shared it.
Some positive news: There really WAS a cat summoned for jury duty back in 2010. Turns out the error was quickly corrected and the cat did NOT actually have to travel to the courthouse. But at least we can enjoy the fact that a papereork glitch did once try to give a cat jury duty XD
i'm aware that in the book it's described as being flat faced and more apelike, but i chose to model this design on a baboon skull, which is an extremely alarming shape without much embellishment. i like to think that the early stages are more humanoid, then it devolves through great apes and then lesser primates until it's barely recognizable as mammalian at all
One of several reasons G Gundam is an absolute masterpiece of an experience is whenever it boldly presents you with something absurd, such as Master Asia rolling up to the Gundam Fight in his giant robot that is also riding a giant robot horse, you will feel tempted to ask funny questions about the silly thing. You will be tempted to go "wow, that's funny. Is the giant robot horse piloted by an actual horse, or something?"
Only for G Gundam to then swiftly reveal that, yes, in fact, the giant robot horse is in fact piloted by an actual horse, and it even wears the shrinkwrapped latex pilot suit while it does it. You think you are being witty, but have severely underestimated G Gundam's commitment to its own absurdity, and now you look like a fool for your hubris. And this exact kind of thing happened to me about three or four more times in the course of the show.
important reminder that most people you follow online are significantly lamer than you think they are including me. and if you feel insecure comparing yourself to someone online: DON'T. theyre probably also lame and weird. most people on the internet are
[Sponsored by Alexandre Coene. This concept started as an inkling from Splatoon, but rapidly went from "straight adaptation" to "homage". Splatoon is Nintendo's way of having their cake and eating it too, doing a shooter game without lethal violence. All of the different ink weapons would be a lot of work to stat up, and in canon only harm other inklings, and only then impermanently. And violence in Pathfinder RPG is decidedly lethal. So this is a playable squid person with ink themed powers and an inkling-like culture, but written to exist in a more typical fantasy world.

Teuthling
CR ½ CN Humanoid (aquatic)
This small person has the face and upper body of a human, but a fleshy conical head with four tentacles instead of hair, and another four tentacles where her legs should be.
Teuthlings are small amphibious humanoids with squid-like features. They live in coastal settlements that extend above and below the water line, which they value as hubs of gossip, culture and trade. Teuthlings are wildly curious about other cultures and peoples, and have a passion for trends. Common trends include fashion, music, visual art and firearms. Gunpowder is unheard of below the waves, and firearms are loud and flashy and valuable. Many of the most “fresh” teuthlings train in gun use. This trend-seeking behavior leads to cliquishness, and teuthlings who disagree on the most fashionable trends often compete in order to prove their side’s superiority.
Small and quick, teuthlings tend toward ranged weaponry even if they eschew firearms. They use their four rear tentacles like legs when on land, but are faster in the water. Their hair tentacles may be of varying lengths depending on how they’re styled and are not strong enough to wield weapons, but are useful for drawing just the right item at a moment’s notice. Like the squid they resemble, teuthlings can eject ink, which expands into a concealing cloud below the waves but is incredibly slippery above water. Some teuthlings eat particular invertebrates and seaweeds to dye their ink a favored color and use these colored “splats” as a calling card.
Teuthlings as Player Characters
Teuthlings do not have racial Hit Dice, and advance by character class. Bard, gunslinger and rogue are common classes for teuthling characters. A teuthling character has the following racial traits
Small size
-2 Str, +2 Dex, +2 Cha Teuthlings are nimble and charming, but physically weak
Amphibious A teuthling has the aquatic subtype, and can breathe both water and air
Low-light vision
20 ft. speed, swim 30 ft. Teuthlings are faster below water than above
Quadrupedal A teuthling’s four walking tentacles grant it a +4 racial bonus to CMD to avoid being tripped. A teuthling’s carrying capacity is not affected by their quadrupedal stance.
Ink (Ex) As a standard action, a teuthling can spit ink. Underwater, this creates an area total concealment in a 5 foot radius around the teuthling. On land, this functions as a non-magical grease spell (DC equals 10 + 1/2 character level + Constitution modifier) that only fills a 5 foot square adjacent to the teuthling. A teuthling can use this ability a number of times per day equal to its Hit Dice plus its Constitution modifier, and effects created by teuthling ink last for 1d4+1 rounds.
Tentacles (Ex) A teuthling’s hair tentacles cannot wield weapons, but can store or retrieve small items carried on their person as a swift action.
