I think Warlock is the worst class in dnd/worst designed mechanically, its thematics are great and cool but I just have strong opinions on its mechanics. Friends who play dnd have seen my what amounts to a thesis if you count flooding a discord channel as one on this topic

A humorous more than serious addition to this post:

Which path should he choose?

image

The path of the warrior, the path of the scholar, or the path of the artist?

he should wander away and have a picnic while he thinks about what path to choose

Great idea! But where should he have the picnic?

image

Under the tree, or under the old fort?

By the sea, so he can enjoy the sound of the waves

A lovely choice!

image

Should he build a sandcastle to pass the time? Or perhaps go fishing?

Perhaps he could collect shells he finds interesting

Sounds fun!

image

Which shell should he pick up?

image

This one

That’s not a shell, it’s a tiny earpiece.

image

Should he listen to music? Or to the mysterious pre-recorded message?

He should give it back to the crab in the largest shell, they thought they had lost their wave-pod and are grateful he found it!

The crab wants to give a gift in return.

image

Should he accept the gift of power, or the gift of knowledge?

the gift of friendship :)

Friendship acquired!

image

Should they celebrate with pizza or ice cream?

The crab friend cannot eat either of those! Let’s split a nice seaweed salad instead. :)

So many options!

image

Should they get tossed salad, wiggly salad, or spiky salad?

Seasar salad

Nothing beats getting it straight from the source

image

Should they use scissors or claws to cut the seaweed?

What about that sword in the first panel?

The circle is complete.

image

Through choices, friendship, and salad, he found his way to the path of the warrior. But he won’t walk it alone.

Their path is just beginning, but this story is over.

Thank you to everyone who participated!

Octopus filmed changing colours while sleeping.

i wonder what they are dreaming about

Changing colors duh

What’s really cool about this is that cephalopod (octopus, squid, etc.) intelligence evolved completely separately from intelligence in tetrapods (which includes primates, dolphins, crows… basically any other intelligent animals you can think of). Cephalopods are very, very far away from us on the tree of life. For context, you and a starfish are more closely related than you and an octopus. The last common ancestor of humans and cephalopods was the so-called Urbilaterian, the hypothetical first animal with a left-right symmetric body. This animal almost certainly had, at most, an extremely simple nervous system, without anything resembling a brain.

All this is to say that the fact that this octopus appears to be dreaming means one of two things. Either

a) dreaming is a very, very old thing indeed, going directly back to the Urbilaterian. This would mean that almost every animal, from insects to starfish to sea slugs to newts, is likely to have the ability to dream in some capacity or another (unless they have specifically lost it by evolutionary simplification).

or

b) dreaming evolved entirely independently in cephalopods when they developed greater intelligence. This would suggest, at least, that there’s something very fundamental about dreaming related to intelligence itself, which causes it to emerge independently when sufficient intelligence arises.

Needless to say, either of these outcomes would be really very cool.

Shout out to anyone that ever made a character that’s a ‘Secret Government experiment’ that escapes the lab and is now wanted and misunderstood. That’s top tier character design, thank you.
