Sangheili Saturday — Raas 'Yajadai
Formerly a warrior within the Covenant military, Raas 'Yajadai served on the High Council by 2552. He was among the group of High Councilors decimated and imprisoned by Thrallslayer at the start of the Great Schism.
Raas 'Yajadai is a Sangheili politician who served within the Covenant as a High Councilor toward the end of the Human-Covenant War.
Asking very kindly... the only councilor we get to see in that one ultrakill cutscene? Please?
I hope this is the right character
Bed Wed or Behead the Council from Ultrakill.

are you in a political party at the moment? are you gonna join one?
I am part of a young political party. I shan't say which to avoid tumblr slander, but it's quite complicated.
So say party A and party B and party C are all in government, and party V, W, X, Y, Z, are all in opposition. I support outright the values of party Y and Z, and some of the values of party B. Ireland has a big issue where party A and B have been cycling in and out of government for decades, and opposition parties have never had a chance to get into government.
Now, say you are any of the following.
Somone with the intention to be a politician that;
-wants to be in government
-cares more about making a difference than party affiliation
-wants a realistic chance of having influence
(This does not apply for people with no intent to be in government, and I VERY MUCH encourage voting for a party you support and agree with regardless of affiliation, or for locals, voting by candidate rather than party.)
Because the cycle between A and B has been going on for so long, if you want to make a larger change, it's adviseable to be in government. It could be argued that it's easier to join party A or B, than to break the cycle.
Dosen't this feed into poor decisions? Not inherently. So, I am formally affeliated with party B.
We must take a look at this parties youth. You will observe that they are all very progressive next to the current party. You will also observe that party B seem to really like party Y and Z.
As I said, party B has solid values but sometimes falls on execution. I also wish to break the cycle between party A and party B, but to do that, I must be in party B, in order to have a chance of being in government, and also to have a chance of promoting true democratic practice within that party, and establishing good, competitive but healthy and non hostile relations between parties. Competition stays, but it is paired with cooperation.
Although I agree with all of the values of party Y and Z, I see real potential in party B to rise to the same standard, and even above it, and I feel it's the better of the two parties that will get you into government, compared to party A.
I might be canvassing for party A, however I feel similarly towards them in the sense that I really do believe the candidates are good and dedicated people, but there needs to be real discussion had upon the question; "are we working AT the people, or are we working with and for them? Are we justifying our mistakes instead of endeavouring to improve upon them?"
I also believe that canvassing is good in all it's forms. While there are outright discriminatory parties I wouldn't canvass for, I believe the spreading of information and a variety of perspectives is inherently good. The people need to know their options, and I am happy to facilitate that in any way I can. I trust the voter will make the choice that they feel is best.
Tbh I'd be the first to admit that I have to perform insane mental gymnastics to be a part of this party, but I do think I have fair reasoning.
There are definitely worse parties to be in. There are less popular (thank god) parties that outright deny people human rights, and would fall very close to the beliefs of US trump supporters, however I'm happy to say I'm not part of a party that is deliberately denying human rights, but rather just a party that has solid theoretical values but exercises them poorly sometimes, but I really think the youth will have a great impact.
We all affiliate differently, but many of us have a common goal of liberation, happiness, and healthy institutions.
I have friends from all parties, from a-z. We do discuss sometimes, but we do not tend to argue because we share the same foundational desires for a healthy and empowered society.
As long as a party does not restrict human rights; I am not against that party in any way. We each have our own unique set of beliefs and our own power and healthy ideologies, and to have a real future for the people, it is essential that we cooperate and work with, rather than against each other, to find a way to move forward in the common belief in justice and civil rights.
Sorry for the really long answer, but I feel it's necessary to explain.

Birth by Kazuma Kaneko
About: When starting his illustrations he will start on paper, then eventually scanning his work onto his computer.
The first subject of the drawing Kaneko made was Demi-Fiend as he was the main focus of the piece. He will often draw the “essential” or main focus of the piece first. After that he begins drawing the demons, ignoring what sticks out.
Due to the limitations of his computer at the time he would split the image into four parts as the image can take up to 100-200 MB of RAM, keeping in mind that at this time computer RAM was just now hitting a gigabyte in size allowing Painter to run smoother. Since Kaneko doesn’t have to meet many deadlines for several pieces of work he will often take his time and add many details to his art.
The tools Kaneko used for the works is as follows:
Software: Painter 6, Photoshop 6.1
Hardware: PowerMacintosh, G4/450 Dual, memory 1024MB (equivalent to 1GB)
Tablet: WACOM intuos2 i-620

Mod thoughts:
I... REALLY love this artwork, it’s one of my favorite pieces created by Kaneko, specifically the limbs as odd as it sounds. The way he tends to draw characters, around the time of Nocturne and Persona 2 duology look like a porcelain dolls. His digital work is gorgeous and I love it, I can’t get over it! — Luna
(Artwork Scan taken from Larrue’s Kaneko Artwork Folder, the High Quality version can be found here.) UPDATE 6/19/2023:
So... Larrue’s Megaten Archive is gone. I tried to find why but there was nothing but he mentioned that someone uploaded his stuff to the Internet Archive. I am too dumb to find it. Luckily I have saved his Kazuma Kaneko art folder! So now you can get the image here.
