Biography

William was born into extravagant wealth and has known nothing else since. His father, Rolland Darklyn, grew Duskendale's wealth during his short reign, much as his forebears had before him, inviting merchants and their goods from faraway lands to trade in the town's vibrant markets.
In his youth, William quickly took to books and his lessons, proving himself a dedicated student who excelled at arithmetic and accountancy, even going so far as to write tables in his free time that went into the far hundreds. Although he received sufficient training in personal combat and the trappings of knighthood, the young heir did not take much interest in the art, instead prefering his books and studies, and spent much of his days in the Dun Fort's library, eventually prompting the Lord Darklyn to contemplate a possible career at the Citadel or with the Faith for his young son in case another son was born to him.
Upon William's insistence, he was sent to Oldtown at the age of twelve where he gained admission to the fabled Citadel, the great bastion of learning in Westeros, and began further studies in earnest, forging two links of red and yellow gold, in his first two years, proving himself once more a prodigy with numbers. Such was his prowess that he, besides his usual studies and lectures, began working at the Citadel as an assistant to the establishment's primary accountant, earning some change of his own while living in Oldtown.
By the time he was recalled to Duskendale at the age of twenty one on account of his father's ill health and inability to have fathered another son, William had forged a further five links, specializing in administration and diplomacy. Upon his return, he quickly took control of the town's finances and restored them to their original prospering, relegating his uncles and cousins to positions of lesser importance while they waited for the Lord Darklyn to kick the bucket, which he finally did eight months later, allowing for William Darklyn to ascend to the position of Lord of Duskendale.

My fiance and I bought a 87 Ford honey for a 1000$ it has less than 32,000 mi and it houses my self my girl and her huge pain in the ass brother. Mother in law has completely jumped ship and now tries to come up with every exuse why she did.
Where a tough bunch me (36m) fiance (36f) and shit head is (31m)
Unfortunately where all drug addicts and it's all about to go down...
So this lady pops into our lives about a couple months ago saying ”oh come stay with me I have plenty of property! It's all good.
We all know shit sounds to good to be true.
Where all from Imperial, CA so if you know the land you know we have an unbelievably hot summer lurching right around the corner.
Things got real and we had to take the offer. The night we show up was one of the worst nights I have ever experienced without breaking the law. I honestly wanted to just disappear.
The day we moved in, mother inlaw was with us. Thinking she can do what ever she tells me it's ok to get towed in her gate. So did brother and this lunatics cousin. It brings me comfort knowing that we might be ok.
Hell no. We land, the tow guy splits and all hell breaks loose. This lady comes screaming out of her hous telling me I need to get the f out and we all need to start pushing. It's in the middle of the night. Where all arguing about who and why the hell I'm parked here. With this lunatic we get absolutely no where. Tweeked I'm sure she only knows high volume screaming for communication.
We some how talk her into moving it in the morning...
We all wake up emotionally exhausted from the night before. Assessing all the damage, wasn't to bad. Shit we made it just about halfway out the gate before I cut it to hard and graze the fence. ( Little does she know)
We finally get it down the road to the very edge of the property. On egg shells we've been on since. The ups and downs this lady has are insane and rude. She's there sometimes, you can feel safe and then bam your about to get stabbed. It's very real.
So mom jumps ship from being connected to her kids by the hip for 36 years to here's 20$ see yeah. This is only getting harder.
I feel like I'm the only one trying at the moment. I feel like shit. Like every direction I turn has a spike strip waiting.
I hand write letters for the neighbors letting them know we should only be there for a couple days and I'm sorry for the inconveniences. Please have a heart....
No....fuck no.....the sheriff shows up...I'm at work making 3.50$ and my fiance is doing her best to steer this ship into safety.
She pulls it off. Idk how but she gets free. By the way our RV doesn't idle, it starts but wont stay on or go into gear. No registration or tags, we barely have a bill of sale.
So fuck being a nice guy.
We come up with a decent parking arrangement with crazy and she tells me to write up a rental agreement. Where supposed to give up our car for three months rent.
I have the tow ready but I don't wanna move until we sign some papers.... Idk if this is ever going to happen. She shows up all hours of the night telling us we moved random things in her back yard.
I don't know what else to do..... I'm sure I'm missing alot of the story, I'm sorry I'm exhausted.
If you have any kind of kind hearted words I'm all ears. Or if you wanna ask me anything I don't lie. Helps always helpful
The only thing that has been working is meditation and brain syncing.
Thanks for listening -joe

TW mention of self harm and suicidal thoughts
" Glass children are those who are growing up in a home where a sibling takes up a disproportionate amount of parental energy "
Well. Disclaimer : I am not a child, alright, I am 20. But I've been thinking a lot about the last 10 years of my life, and I am, as much as it pains me, a glass child and I've been since my sister's born.
Of course, at first, it was (I thought) only because I was the first born, the big sis, you know.
But 3 years ago, my sister discovered Tik Tok. Everyone knows Tik Tok, right? Well, we all know what kind of stuff we can find on that app! I, myself, found the description of a "glass child" there. I use Tik Tok frequently.
My sister always had problems with her friends. When she was younger, she was always in the middle of some arguing between two or three girls, never really had a day where she wasn't coming home with what I call "girl's gangs" problems (you know when two best friends suddenly split and get mad and get other friends to form like alliances and stuff to b*tch on the others? Ya know, old stuff, we've all been there).
She was never wrong in those situations. She was coming home laughing about how she was the peacemaker and never creating problems of some sort. Thing is, I know my sister. Like the back of my hand. Alright? I just... know when she's lying. Still, to this day, she always brags about how good she is to manipulate people and make them do what she wants. Alrighty girl, weird flex.
Well, she got to high school (what we call secondary one in Canada), and then, she started having anxiety. Like panic attacks and all? I've had those, still do these days, so I understood. I became her protector, her therapist, calming her down when my mother critized her for exagerating. I knew what to do, and I gave up all my energy to take care of her, of her mental health, as a good old sister does.
She made it to the second year of high school (secondary 2) with difficulties. Panic attacks again and all. 3 years ago, as I said, she discovered Tik Tok. I know Tik Tok and its algorithm : there are specific fyp where you can find videos about the same topic over and over again. I suspect she was in a dark side of Tik Tok, a depressed one, where you can see all sort of sad/depressing things and stories (I know, I've been there too, now trying to avoid it as much as I can because it affects me mentally and I start spiralling).
Cutting her hair short ( I guess the "funny mentally hill" trend where you cut your hair on a headbutt and dye it, I know, been there too).
Sexuality explored too. Like she was trans for a while and wanted us to call her another name (she isn't anymore, she told me so about 3 months in). I always respected her choices and calling her what she wanted to be called at that time. She was a kid, she was 13, so she was discovering herself and her preferences and all. No problem with that.
She started hanging out with some people like that too. She had a non-binary friend, a trans one, a furry one, etc. She was having fun with them. Great people. She finally had a group.
Some of them, however, had the same experiences we all hear about on Tik Tok. You know, some of them not in a great home, or in a bad relationship with parents, depression, anxiety. Hate to say it, but you know those people on Tik Tok who (unfortunatly) are bullied on the internet for being... like... huuuuh (wondering how to say that without insulting anyone) like stereotypical? Like... you know those who wants a cat litter in a classroom in a unironical way? Some of her friend were a little extremist on that plan. Again, never really bothered me.
We have two parents, a mom and a dad. They divorced when I was 7. My sister was 3. They never fought in front of us, never heard them, it was really a suprise. They went their separate ways. Me and my sis got used to go to each of them for a week, and then go back to the other for a week. It was fine, working good. My parents are both accountants, my mom teaching it too. I had a strong disagreement with my mom in 2019 about one of her (numerous) boyfriends. The only one i really hated with all my heart. This resulted in me leaving her house for about a year. My sis was still doing 1 week/1 week. Apart of that, my parents are pretty basic ones, never abused us and we always had everything we needed.
I started college. I loved it, still do, and was finally starting my life as an adult, I started a great job, was doing good in school and... was still helping my sister and my parents with her anxiety/ panic attacks. Even learn in my degree how to deal with people who disorganize.
Then, the cutting started. A lot of her friend were doing it, she told me. And then she started having those episodes where she was cutting herself. Never with something sharp, like a knife or else. But with like compass and crayons? Then, she started having suicidal thoughts. Then, and that is where it all went down, she called 911 for suicidal thoughts. She was home alone and the police called my mom.
What had she done? Scratch herself... with a pencil.
I've had panic attacks before. And suicidal thoughts that crossed my mind but I never acted on them. Never. And I can't imagine myself doing it. I talked about it, of course, with my best friend, someone I trusted and it was making me feel better. How did I know my sister was doing that and having those thoughts? She just said it, casually, at dinner with the whole family. Like... girl? It really got the mood down, everyone worried and she was like... glowing? I don't know how to say it.
She was always a bit dramatic and had a way of making everything about herself, but it was never about negative things. More like flexing a good grade or whatever. She was always talking about how depressed she was, how she was suicidal, and the things she was saying were... like straight up a depressing tik tok. Like one day I found something she said ( I think it was like "you don't understand how this feels it is like blablabla i don't remember) WORD FOR WORD in a Tik Tok. It is like she wasn't expressing her feelings, but made up phrases you find on the Internet when you type "panic attacks" or "depression".
After a second call to 911 for taking 10 advils, she got admitted to psychiatry. At that time, I was watching my parents fall appart, running around to appointments for her, my dad having stress acnea (at 45) and both of them exhausted. It was a real drama. Everyone in the family talked about it. It was the only subject of discussion, the only thing that was on everyone's mind.
I was hanging out my seat in class with my phone on my belly to be sure to feel it vibrate if something happened. We were all in a bad place.
And then, we got a diagnosis of autism.
I'm sorry, what? Where does that come from? I mean, alright, we'll deal with that one.
But then. That's where all went down for me. Sis started therapy, changed school, went to an adapted classroom for people like her and with disabilities. My parents were still all over the place.
Except where I needed them.
I was 18, at that time, starting adulthood. I have ADHD. It is really hard for me to respect a schedule, think about every appointments I have, every homework, every luggage I can't forget to bring to mom's or to dad's. I was also giving my all in school, never missed anything, straight A's and working my ass off.
I started realising that everytime my parents texted me was to ask/talk about my sis.
Every. Single. Time.
They'd ask me to bring my sister her lunch that she forgot, to go get her when she was down, or get her to her appointments like I didn't have a whole fu**ing life I was trying so hard to keep on line.
I gave all my free time to her needs and my parents's. I educated myself on autism, defended her when my mom was thinking she was faking because I wanted to prove I was there for her. That I was the life saving good sister. I never, ever, heard her say thank you.
Never.
The only compliments my parents were giving me is "thank you for getting your sis for us. Thank you for being there for her. Thank you for doing things with her."
I went trough some stuff, at that time. I hurt my knee and was failing my physical tests. It got to the point I wasn't even sure I liked my degree anymore. I was having a really hard time. But my parents never saw my pain. I have a tendency to hide things, sure, but I was really trying to talk to them about how I was feeling. They were listening, and letting go. Why didn't they start worrying for me like they did for my sister? I don't know, don't really care now. I was having suicidal thoughts too, I wanted to yeet myself in a tree and even stopped driving so it wouldn't give me options. They left me alone, because everytime I tried bringing up the fact that I was not in a good place, my sister was disorganizing at school and they needed to go to the hospital to be both there for her while she fainted from hyperventilating. Every fcking time I was talking to my sister, she was acting like she lived trough everything and was telling me she knew more about suicidal thoughts than me cause she went to psychiatry. Excuse me miss gurl, but who was fcking there to help you trough your panic attacks hun? How do you think I know so much?
Seeing I had practically no support from my already exhausted parents, I took matters into my own hands and started going to therapy. My doctor also prescribed me with anti-depressants. I was going to be ok... on my own. I've had really bad days, real hard ones. But I got back on my two feet. At least, I think so.
School was over and it was time for summer break. I had a job I loved on a boat. I've had a blast on that boat, I wasn't jumping from a house to another, I wasn't always in luggages, I had my own room like a little appartment of my own on the ship. I slowly started to discover a backpacking/adventurous side of myself. I needed air, was travelling far from home as soon as I had a week or two off of the boat.
At the same time, my sister had stopped self-harming and having suicidal thoughts. She's was now in a school for adults to finish her 4th and 5th year of college. She wasn't in a special classroom anymore. Changed friend group.
But here's the thing. Cause there is always a "but".
I started realising how much my sister was toying with us, with my parents. As soon as the diagnosis fell, she became unsufferable. For example, when I say I hate loud noises and strong light, she says she has it tougher because, ya know, "i'm autistic". I can't say something without her saying she has autism and that's why she has it worse.
When I have a good grade or I've hit a PR at the gym, I tell my parents because I am happy. I try to see life the good way, now. I'm quite proud of all the personal work i've done.
But she can't have a normal day.
It is always "ho I hated school because the light was making a sound" or something to point out she has autism.
I talked to one of my friend who is a social worker, and he told me autism is usually apparent in children. My sis was diagnosed at 15. But, and hear me out, all the things that make her autistic according to her psychiatrist... she's never really had them before.
You remember at the beginning of this rant how I told you I know when my sister is lying?
Well. I don't think an autistic person possess the flex of "being able to manipulate people so easily to get what you want".
She's always bragging about how smart she is compared to us because, you know, "ShE cAn FeElS eNeRgiEs AnD pEoPlE AnD iT AfFeCts hEr". Well, honey, I don't think that is autism. It is always little comment about how special she is because she can't do this, or that. Like I have ADHD, alright? I'm stimming all the time. I don't point it out to people for fun, actually, i'm quite ashamed of it sometimes. She bought all those fidget toys and brings them ALL to school to show how much she needs them.
One reason of why I am mad, as you can (unfortunatly) see, is my father's attitude.
The fact that my sis had episodes of suicidal thoughts and acts traumatized him. With reasons, don't get me wrong.
But now, she's clearly living well of drama and stereotypical behavior she never had before.
My father is fucking afraid of telling her no.
Like man, I don't think that if you ask her to unload the dishwasher ONE FUCKI*NG time that she's going to kill herself. Like come on.
One time, she called him cause she fainted cause she was hyperventilating cause the cleaner at her school wore a different hat than usual. Or another time where she learn that two teachers were eating togueter at lunch and not in the cafeteria?
I know my sister. She is clearly using him. She's got him hooked with a silent threat of hurting herself or making it impossible for him to receive a phone call without thinking she committed.
And. She. Fucking. Knows. It.
She left my mother's house because my mom wasn't buying her shit.
She left with all her drama about how she could appologize but she needs her space to think about what she (mom) did.
BRUH did what?!?!?!? It was so sudden, what are you on about?
All her life, she was good at one thing : breaking people's relationship.
I know, because I'm not blind.
She's the type of person that looks at you after saying your deepest secret in front of everyone and be like : "oups teehee🤪 you know i can't keep a secret" or she plays dumb "i didn't know it was a secret oupsis" with this little dumb face that I know by heart means "I win you fuck*ng idiot".
She broke the good relationship my parents had by pretending mom told her something when it wasn't right or vice versa. When she's at dad's, she always talks about all the things mom does that sucks. When she was at mom, she was always talking about how bad it was at dad.
I was in the middle like , bruh, it isn't even that bad. And of course, my parents both being proud individuals started feeling supperior than the other and downgrading the other in front of us (wich you know my sis was repeating over and over to everyone).
But because my parents are fucking blind they let her riled them up against each others. So now they don't talk. And when they do, it is always to argue about how to take care of my sis.
To make a clear example of how she gets everything she wants :
She always tells me that she wants a Mira dog. Like a service dog. She's going to keep creating dramatic scenarios like that until my father cries and decides it is the last option we have.
But no. After the dog, it is going to be another need for neurodivergent people that she's probably going to see on Tik Tok.
Because yes, she faints and yes, she is hyperventilating. But I can create scenario in my head and make them real too (maladaptive daydreaming oups). Anxiety works like that : if I start hyperventilating for 45 seconds, my body jumps to survival mode and the mammoth thing ang boom, there you have your panic attack.
Yes. She is mentally hill.
But she's not autistic. She does not need a service dog. And she can't continue leading people on like that.
She's in need of negative attention. She hates when we compliment her, she hates when we wish her happy brithday and all. But she's always talking about how she did bad at this exam and ho people please comfort me. There's always something going on with her.
She stopped self-harming and having suicidal toughts. People started living normally.
So she restarts panic attacks but she already has a psychiatrist so she needs more.
Lets go to the hospital, something's wrong with my heart. Then she's got the pleasure of walking around school with a machine to record her heart thingy.
Nope. Nothing wrong.
People start forgetting.
Whoops now she's fainting and we don't know why.
Hospital trip yeah.
Nothing's wrong.
Then she buys a machine to keep track of her blood pressure.
Does a doctor prescribed it?
Nope. You can just buy it so she did. And she could do it like in the morning, at lunch or at night, but no, she absolutly needs to do it in front of everyone, making noise in class while the teacher is talking.
And i'm starting to get fed up.
About a year into this nightmare, 3 years ago, I stopped feeling.
I wasn't able to feel anything. And that is why, today, I can write this and unfortunatly for some, it will be controversial.
After my downfall, when my sister was in need...
I did not care.
At all.
She could do whatever she wanted to do. She could have as much trip to the hospital as she wanted.
I . Did . Not . Care .
I was going to class.
And my phone was on silent.
I don't want to know. I don't care. Don't you get it? Mom, dad, leave me alone. You did it well, right? Continue.
I am an horrible human being. My best friend tries to comfort me saying that my heart of stone is a form of self-protection, a defense mechanism that I developped 3 years to protect myself and not live trough what my sister put us trough without knowing (or caring?).
Still.
I am an egoist.
But I do not care.
You want to make me feel like a glass child?
Alright alright.
I'll deal with it.
But now the glass is fed up.
And it is about to break.
Good bye and thank you for coming all the way here.

Hello all,
I just dropped my two new games Platinum and Strife. Platinum is an RPG rules set heavily based on BRP and D100 roll under skill based mechanics designed to be modular and easily hackable to and from other systems.
Strife is a full scale wargame built to tie into RPGs, specifically Platinum, but can work with other systems. Strife has a full book of scenarios ranging from the Seven Years' War to Superheroes fighting to save Rio to space invasions.
I posted them all up at https://sts-gamer.itch.io/
Platinum RPG:
Platinum is a set of D100 rules that was designed to be easily hacked with bits and pieces of other games. If you like something from another game, add it in or replace it. Take parts from Champions/Hero, Palladium, D20 and others. There is no reason to be limited in your creativity by being shackled to arbitrary rules.
These rules are a guideline, but this is not a narrative game, rules light or a story first system and has rules for many situations and campaign types. Extensive rules for skills, combat, experience, free-form magic and tools for various settings and worldbuilding are given in this book.
Combined with its companion wargame Strife, you can play at any scale from individual to fleets of ships in the age of sail or prowling the vastness of space. Platinum is made to inspire you and guide you into creating the campaign that you and your players want.
Highlights:
Fast character creation with as much or as little customization as you want
Percentile based skill system
Classless system
Fast and lethal combat for characters and vehicles
Modular rules, use what you want, ignore what you don’t without changing the core gameplay
Easily conversion from and to other systems including Basic Roleplaying, Storyteller, D20, etc.
If you can describe it, you can build it
Designed to be combined with Strife, the Scalable Wargame
Strife: the Scalable Wargame
---------------
Strife: The Scalable Wargame
Strife is what happens when your PCs are in over their head. Are your PCs running from cybernetic assassins in a blacked out urban warzone? Do you need to simulate boarding actions for piracy in the Age of Sail? Do you need a narrative combat system as background for competing organized crime families? Recreating the Battle of the Bulge? Fleet actions in off the Shoulder of Orion? All of these are battles for you to fight and win with Strife, the Roleplaying Wargame.
Occupying the space between traditional roleplaying games and wargames, Strife allows your PCs to become the commanders of their troops and become responsible for every aspect of the war. No longer do PCs have to be content with a small corner of the battlefield when Strife allows PCs to master the entire war. Designed to be flexible in both scale and detail, Strife is made to simulate dungeon crawls, platoon battles in triple canopy jungle, campaigns between hundreds of thousands of troops lasting months and fleet actions over light seconds of space.
System agnostic, Strife can be used with any RPG or used as an alternative ruleset for any skirmish or wargame. This complementary game system is accomplished by having each layer of the game build upon previous layers. The simulation builds on the wargame, which builds on the narrative tool. There are also multiple options that are available to expand upon the gameplay for more detail or alternative mechanics. This array of tools is provided allow the GM to have as much, or as little detail as desired.
Highlights:
A setting agnostic rule set to simulate units from prehistory, fantasy, modern or science fiction
Scale agnostic and able to use almost miniatures or any scale of units or counters
A scale-based system for units, time and distance
3D combat using range, altitude and depth Unit skills determine how effective they are at battlefield tasks, not just their combat power
Tactical, Operational or Strategic scale
Hidden movement
Tactical Advantages
Morale and gaining a Moral Victory
NBC warfare
Fire Support
Weather and Terrain
Unit construction rules
A solo mode
Deliberately asymmetrical
Designed to be combined with the Platinum RPG
What this is not:
Balanced for tournament play

Technology has revolutionized the publishing industry in many ways, making getting content out to readers easier than ever. From self-publishing platforms to automated book production, technology is transforming the way books are created, marketed, and sold. In this blog post, we'll explore how technology is changing the publishing industry and how it is affecting the way authors, publishers, and readers interact.
Self-Publishing Platforms
Self-publishing platforms have drastically changed the publishing landscape, allowing authors to bypass traditional publishing houses and publish their work directly to readers. Platforms such as Amazon Kindle Direct Publishing, Smash words, and Kobo Writing Life has made it easier than ever for authors to reach readers and make money on the sale of their work. These platforms also provide marketing tools, analytics, and other resources to help authors create successful books and reach their audiences.
Automated Book Production
Publishers have been using technology to streamline the book production process, making printing books faster and more cost-effective. Automated book production systems allow publishers to quickly and easily produce books in large quantities, reducing the need for expensive manual labour. This technology also allows publishers to customize books on demand, enabling them to respond quickly to changing reader tastes and trends.
Digital Distribution
Digital distribution has revolutionized the publishing industry, allowing publishers to reach more readers than ever before. Digital books are quickly becoming the preferred format for readers, as they are more convenient and accessible than print books. Digital distribution also helps publishers save money on printing, storing, and shipping books.
Data Analysis
Publishers can now use technology to analyze reader data and better understand their audiences. Data analysis tools enable publishers to track reader engagement and gain insights into reader behavior. This data can be used to tailor content to readers, optimize marketing campaigns, and increase book sales.
Social Media
Social media has become an essential marketing tool for publishers, allowing them to reach readers directly and promote their books. Publishers can use social media to interact with readers, build relationships, and create buzz around their books. Social media also provides publishers with valuable data about their readers, enabling them to better understand their audiences and tailor their content accordingly.

• Become much more DECISIVE in everything you do.

• Instantly “turn up” your CONFIDENCE in challenging situations.
• Easily be your best, most powerful, authentic self when handling sales conversations, negotiations, arguments, debates, disputes.

• Achieve TOTAL FOCUS and CONCENTRATION regardless of distractions around you…for better selling, writing marketing copy, better organization, better parenting, enhanced memory!
• ERADICATE PROCRASTINATION from your life, once and for all. Just get it done.
• CALM yourself “on the spot” in times of extreme stress
• BREAK FREE OF MOODINESS, frustration, burn-out…stop letting other people or petty annoyances control your moods.

• SILENCE “NEGATIVE” SELF TALK…and finally feel at peace and comfortable in your own skin.

• SPEED UP LEARNING, retention and implementation of new information and skills (from all the workshops, seminars, books, CDs/DVDs, and information products on your shelves), a new computer program, a foreign language, passing tests and certifications…

Best yet, you can walk away with having the belief in yourself, the KNOWING, and the confidence to be paid well for doing what you love, in private sessions, in group programs, on teleseminars or from the stage, you will be ready for massive quantum leap results! And all this without struggle, resistance, or sabotage. It’ll just flow naturally with ease and grace.
I don’t believe in just sending you a product to have it sit, unused and gathering dust, on your shelf. I’ve created the entire ACT™ Belief Change System around this life-changing information so you get the most out of it.

Let me also share a few things you WON’T get in my Accelerated Change Template (ACT)™ Belief Change System:

• NO “re-telling your story” for the g’zillionth time so that you need to relive the painful past. Wasn’t it awful enough the first time? Besides, you don’t need to do it in order to change.
• NO “woo woo” jargon or psycho-babble that you don’t understand or makes your head spin. To be honest, I hate when people try to sound so “mystical” and “magical” to create an aura of mystique. I’ve discovered that clearly communicating complex ideas into “plain English” is what makes it easy to teach, easy to learn, and easy to use so you get long lasting results.
• NO complex rituals or techniques that you have no choice but to memorize (but are so complicated that you can’t so you HAVE to rely on the trainer to do it for you instead) I don’t like things that are complex. The most powerful things are always simple. I don’t even know all those silly rituals – where you’re supposed to write in your journal, repeat certain words and phrases, listen to the same CDs for 21+ days, hook yourself up to “special equipment”, meditate with certain phrases or equipment. All that stuff makes me feel overwhelmed! (And I already have too much on my plate to add a bunch of other time consuming rituals)
• NO mental gymnastics that take time every day that you need to do, or you don’t get the result. I’m going to teach you easy to learn techniques that you can use right away, with the step by step instructions to follow.
• NO willpower or “just do it” motivation techniques that may get you excited and “pumped up” but don’t last beyond the “rush!”
• NO “theoretical” unproven techniques. Instead I teach you what I personally use since 1995 with myself, my students, and my clients to get results when many other strategies failed. This information is backed up by the latest scientific research by some of the most prominent thought leaders in the world.

I'm prepping a campaign, and I'm planning to just give the party the Example Free Merchant as a starting ship for convenience's sake. However, I'm building the ship using the example as a guide to familiarize myself with the shipbuilding rules a little, and I'm concerned. The rulebook says the free merchant should have no free mass when the ship is fully outfitted. I'm showing that I only have 13 out of the 15 mass accounted for. Could someone more familiar with the rules see if I'm missing something or if the example has a misprint?

We're consolidating a lot of very common questions and threads into this daily discussion thread. The following topics belong here rather than in their own posts:

• General chat where you don't want to make a whole new post
• Things you have for sale e.g. gig tickets
• Things you want to buy
• Things you have lost or found. Lost pets and people deserve their own threads!
• Moving to Bristol advice
• Help and advice renting in Bristol's insane property market

If you make a post on these topics we'll remove it and redirect you here.
Also feel free to discuss this new development or message the mods with ideas.
