#legacy
Don’t know how to feel about being known on here and TikTok for replacing those family portraits but this is my legacy and I accept it.
Une exposition et des projections retrospectives des travaux de Sarah Maldoror en ce moment au Palais de Tokyo et ce en continu jusqu'au printemps 2022.
Narratrice afro-descendante et francophone des guerres d'independance notamment en Angola, les documentaires de Sarah Maldoror sont plus que des temoignages visuels de l'histoire decoloniale d'une partie de l'Afrique australe. Il s'agit de cris d'alarme!
En plus de partager avec elle ma passion pour le Mozambique et l'Angola, la vie commune avec un Afro-lusophone fut longtemps une de mes inclinations personnelles…
Merci au Palais de Tokyo pour ce parcours ideal afin de se familiariser avec la realisatrice.
I wish I could write down everything.
I mean literally EVERYTHING.
Every little overwhelming feeling and every memory and every thought. I wish I could find the perfect words to describe that one person who tears your heart apart but in a good way.
I wish I could sum up the blood-curdling feeling that the passage and transience of time brings me. I wish I could capture it all just like I see it through my so very tired eyes. I wish I could stop. I wish I could go on forever.
I’ve rewatched “Legacy” (Star Trek: The Next Generation, season 4, episode 6). The episode is pretty interesting and dramatic. The plot – a rescue mission for a crewman, who was taken hostage on the planet Tasha was from. Seems simple, doesn’t it. Well, it would be, if the planet wasn’t being torn apart by some kind partisan civil war and if one of the fractions, which promised to help Federation (Enterprise) rescue the crewman didn’t have Tasha’s sister among them. (Spoilers!) She came on Enterprise to help, she got injured on a mission, grew close to Data, whom she reminded of Tasha, and even started thinking about joining Starfleet and made Worf think that Starfleet will be lucky to have her because she’s brave and selfless. She led them to the final rescue mission and then… betrayed them – it turned out that she led them inside the base of the other fraction not only to get the crewman back but to disable their defence systems and let her comrades attack this base. She was even ready to kill Data to do so. He and Riker didn’t let her, took her on the Enterprise and then returned. Data has experienced his first-ever friend betrayal and doubts if the trust is worth “feeling” this.
Got a fun one for y'all today! As has been the case for like 90% of my work lately, this is another commission from one of my lovely patrons. Bit of a story with this one. So basically the client is an author and in their books they have their own sort of version of D&D. Within that game, the GM has a homebrew system called legacies where characters can have a super powerful thing at character creation but it will cost them dearly to use it. So that’s what I’ve got here, a full writeup of my own interpretation of what those rules might look like but, ya know, for 5e.
Anyway, bit smaller than my usual brews but that’s ok. Overall pretty happy with how it turned out. This is another one that I ended up doing in GM Binder. Found a theme for it there that I think worked really well for the vibe I had in mind. Went for an old-school 3rd edition feel, something dark and what I imagine the game’s “player’s handbook” might look like. Sadly I couldn’t find any appropriate artwork so I left it bare but it’s by no means visually boring. Plus it neatly fits on 2 pages almost exactly so I didn’t want to ruin the formatting with ill-fitting art. Hope you all like it, and points to anyone who knows what book this is from.
