The Fencing Lesson
The story that goes with the piece from LittleBadWolf back in May of 2021 is intended to be a supplement to the original trio of stories that depict Enigma learning how to use a sword. Since Edmund is an athlete and street brawler who is...
Pyromancy?
It was such a simple principle that both mentor and student were astonished they hadn't come up with it before. One need not necessarily be a true pyromancer in order to make use of fire. Through the controlled application of his powers, Edmund could simulate the...
Just Another Game
This piece from LittleBadWolf back in April of 2021 was perfect to illustrate an idea for a lightly comedic short story. In works of fiction, one of the most common forms of shorthand to represent that a character is intelligent is to make them good at...
Rabrandt, Eorzean Ninja (Card)
Taking the art that LittleBadWolf drew of my FF XIV Ninja, I created this. At the time, one of my favorite Commander decks was helmed by Yuriko, the Tiger's Shadow. (I still have it, but I don't bring it out frequently because of its reputation.)...
Rabrandt, Eorzean Ninja
Like many Warriors of Light, Rabrandt is a man of many talents, particularly in the theater of war. While the power of the Dark Knight will always be one he holds close, it is far from his only discipline. Sometimes, there is a need for a...
Reflections of the Past
With Volpes's design completed thanks to Deriaz's work, I was finally ready to start using him in YCHs that helped flesh him out and tell his story. I don't deny that he started life as a fetish character, but I have never been one to...
The Best Teacher
When Enigma started on the path of a planeswalking detective, he was overly confident in his own abilities, thinking that his mind and magic would be enough to carry him through even the most harrowing perils. And like many such young fools, his folly lead...
Wolfing It Down
The psionicist often wondered why the colloquialism "wolfing it down" became popular in other planes. Any yet, if any were to observe him eating his evening meal like this, sitting by the campfire and without any of the utensils common to the more civilized settings...
A Fearsome Performance
It's the most frightful time of year, and the staff of the Theorum Magistrum like to use it as an opportunity to do something special for the students under their care and tutelage, doubly so since the weather and full moon were perfect for what...
A Season of Spooks
Between Enigma and his symbiote Companion, it's difficult to say which one of them enjoys the spooky season more. For Enigma, it's a good excuse to craft more and more intricate illusions that can spook or frighten both his students and co-workers in equal measure. For Companion,...
