Let the players start off without trust in the final battle, and then maybe Strahd keeps laughing and mocking about the seeds of distrust he's sown. You've worked for this outcome, but now you want to undo it.why? Leaning into the uncertainty It is quite possible that this isn't resolved before the fight - and I'm not even sure that it should be. This has generally worked out for me, but you may need to be more obvious/heavy handed in your approach for resolving this. Heck, even when I'm ham-handed, they still generally miss things. That way it is their idea that was used and they can trust in the outcome because they are invested in the idea itself. Let them come up with a reasonable plan, and then have it succeed. In this case, I've found the solution to be in giving more control to the players in terms of figuring out 'what to do.'Īs a DM, I have definitely turned my players around because of scenarios like this that I've developed - and I've learned the only way to fix it is to give the players control again. Leaving the players guessing makes for a very atmospheric Barovia - but as you've noticed it creates some problems, too. When the DM isn't trusted, let the players develop the actionĮven more problematic with a lack of trust in the DM is that it will extend to any information the DM provides - whether direct or from a NPC.īecause you are now a 'untrustworthy narrator', your output is under question - which is a great outcome for a campaign like CoS. The paranoia here is right and good - don't let it go!īut if you really think that the truth must be revealed, then it does shift what you can do to fix it - and it's mostly going to be listening to your players. Don't undo the effort you've done! You and your players have embraced the feel of this campaig - don't let it go now!īut, this also makes you as the DM less than trustworthy as a source for how to 'fix' this - as you were the cause of it! As you've said, even a point-blank Meta-DM statement might not be the solution you think it will be because the players are already thinking you're trying to 'fool' them. That effort isn't going to be simply undone by a spell or so - the players are deeper in this than potentially their characters are.Īnd this is what being in Barovia should be like! You've more than succeeded at the goal of sowing this distrust - and it's pretty much been done specifically for this fight against Strahd. This is probably an answer you don't want to hear, but you've spent the campaign up until now with Strahd turning the players against each other. You're too late to rebuild trust.but why do it at all? The detect thoughts spell seems like it would work almost as well. I don't know what sort of time pressure your group is under, but if they can resolve their trust issues by spending a day and 100gp, that seems like a good deal to me. Your idea of using suggestion is a good one Just have everyone clearly declare that they're not some sort of spy and they genuinely want to destroy Strahd, and let everyone roll insight checks. Your artificer can prepare enhance ability, giving someone advantage on their insight checks. Use enhance ability and make Insight checks I'm not super familiar with Curse of Strahd, but it seems like a decent chance the group could find an NPC to cast this spell. ( This link purports to have advice for traitors evading a zone of truth, but it admits that there's really nothing you can do if they directly ask if you did the thing.) The traditional solution to this problem is to cast zone of truth: the caster can confirm when someone makes their save, and then they can say things that are guaranteed not to be lies. I'm the DM and they asked me for ideas (since maybe they can be forgetting some mechanic that will allow them to, in-game, trust one another again). Party is at level 10 and won't get any more levels. Zone of Truth is not learnable by party member. Party composition: Illusion Wizard, Soulknife Rogue, Battle Smith Artificer, Wild Magic Barbarian, Aberrant Mind Sorcerer, and Battlemaster Fighter. I would love if they could have a way to handle this on their own. At the same time, I don't want to, as a DM, just tell them "Yeah, you guys are fine, no worries". There never was any traitor, it was just clever misdirection from the Dark Lord, and manipulation to turn them on one another. They want a way to wring the truth from one another, and I want to help them with that, RaW. My goal is for my players to finally get rid of their suspicious and work cohesively in the final battle. What RaW mechanics are there for them to find out who (if anyone) is leaking secrets to the Dark Lord or other mechanics so they can move on from this self-imposed fear? My group is playing Curse of Strahd and believe there is a traitor among them when there isn't. Ten years later, while searching through a stack of oily newspapers tied and bound for recycling, Bob Wilkins discovered… Words are delegated to do all the heavy lifting.Īlso like comics, fiction has a narrative “clock” which may be slowed down or sped up panel-by-panel, sentence-by-sentence: In comics, image and language spin together like dancers on a dance floor. By his reckoning, fiction is like a comic book with all the imagery stripped out. If you look back at my last post, you’ll notice McCloud identified written language as the ultimate pictograph in his “Picture Plane” diagram. It may seem like a stretch, but I say these groupings act as narrative “panels.” But like comics, that single component is laid out sequentially, with words grouped into sentences and paragraphs. This is not so different than a story or a novel, only that they are built with a single component, words. Their “motion” depends on the layout of images across a page and the order with which they’re consumed by the reader. What lessons can a fiction writer possibly glean from Understanding Comics?Ĭomics are a sequential art. This doesn’t seem terribly applicable to writing fiction. (Most people forget comics deal with text as well as images, another reason he calls comics “the invisible art.”) Word balloons, descriptive headers, even Batman’s BLAMMO!! coordinate with pictures in cell-like frames. Scott McCloud’s chosen art form synthesizes images and written language into panels and panels into pages-comics. My chosen art form is pure text: letters to words, words to sentences, sentences to paragraphs, paragraphs to chapters. I write fiction: novels, short stories, the occasional novella. Most of these posts will deal with narrative structure in fiction, so they might be viewed as a supplement to the series I’ve been developing on fiction treatments and outlines. Rather than expand my review to, oh, 10,000 words or so, I’ve broken up lessons I’ve drawn from Understanding Comics into separate posts. While I gushed how thoroughly McCloud dissects the language of comics, I didn’t spend much time (if any) on how Understanding Comics has affected me as a fiction writer. Previously I wrote glowingly on Understanding Comics: The Invisible Art by Scott McCloud. Their most recent World Series appearance and win was in 2018. The team has won nine World Series championships, tied for the third-most of any MLB team, and has played in 13 World Series. 1908, following the lead of previous teams that had been known as the " Boston Red Stockings", including the Boston Braves (now the Atlanta Braves). The "Red Sox" name was chosen by the team owner, John I. Founded in 1901 as one of the American League's eight charter franchises, the team's home ballpark has been Fenway Park since 1912. The Red Sox compete in Major League Baseball (MLB) as a member club of the American League (AL) East division. The Boston Red Sox are an American professional baseball team based in Boston.
Inspiration came from England’s underground Northern Soul movement, sparked by the prominent uprising of black American soul music of the 1960s, as well as Malian photographer Malick Sidibé, who died in 2016. The lively images, shot by British fashion photographer Glen Luchford, capture a sense of fun and sophistication revered by the tastemakers and youth of the 1960s. Instead, she discovered she was a part of a group of black models cast from all over the black diaspora. “When I found out it was for Gucci, I automatically thought, ‘Oh, I’m going to be the only black girl there,'” she told NewsHour. To start living a softer life, one has to begin by taking an honest look at their current life, needs and wants devoid of influence from family, friends and social media, says Adeeyo.After years of major fashion houses facing criticism for lack of racial diversity - both on runways and in print - Gucci’s Pre-Fall 2017 campaign, Soul Scene, is an incredible display of style and black culture.Īkua Shabaka, a model featured in the campaign, said she was surprised when she found out she’d been cast for a Gucci campaign with all black models. But if you’re feeling exhausted, give yourself permission to postpone those tasks for another time. So if you’re feeling super energized, perhaps you can get around to the extra items on your list. Then she suggests letting how you feel determine your to-do list for the day. “Something about using your name positions the question from the perspective of someone who cares for you and you can be honest.” “I actually use my name like, ‘Good morning, Zee. Black people have the highest rates of high blood pressure, heart disease and a lot of those things are a direct result of the discrimination and racism that we experience.”įor people who have a hard time putting themselves at the top of their to-do lists, Clarke recommends reciting the mantra, “Today, I choose me.” She also emphasizes the importance of listening to your body.Īs part of living a soft life, Clarke recommends daily morning check-ins where you ask yourself, “How am I doing? How am I feeling right now?” “Your mental health is very tightly connected to your physical health, especially Black women. “The issues are in the tissues, which means when something happens, that shows up in your body-whether it feels like you got punched in the stomach or you feel tension in your shoulders,” Clarke explains. There’s beauty in individuality.” Implementing a soft lifeĪs author and activist Audre Lorde once said, “Caring for myself is not self-indulgence, it is self-preservation and that is an act of political warfare.” For Black women, self-care isn’t a nice-to-have, it can literally be a matter of death. “You think there’s a routine or a right way to do it and there’s not. “It’s very easy to get caught up in the aesthetic of it all and believe that you need that matching yoga set, you need to drink matcha lattes and do your ‘hot girl’ walk and cook salmon in the air fryer and sit down with your wine glass,” says Genai. Living a soft life is also about determining what works (and what doesn’t work) for you. It’s about building community with people that make you feel whole and healed.” It’s saying no because you changed your mind and you want to rest. “It’s not just about buying stuff, it’s saying no at work. “I believe that self-care needs to start practical and once you start it practical, it begins to become instinctual and bleeds into other parts of your life,” she says. Whereas the soft life trend has become synonymous with Black Girl Luxury, Adeeyo insists the lifestyle is about more than Instagram aesthetic-it’s a mentality, one that elevates the importance of mental health. I think there’s a way for the Strong Black Women and Soft Life Girlies to coexist.” The soft life is about more than aesthetics I’m not saying that taking charge is negative, but we don’t always have to jump to be the saviors. “There’s strength in vulnerability and there’s strength in being soft. “What soft life aims to do is highlight that we don’t always have to be strong,” explains Genai. Genai agrees, noting that previous generations prioritized being strong-physically, emotionally and mentally. That comes with a lot of fatigue and exhaustion, so the status quo becomes overworking and not taking care of yourself.” And when you go back to the times of slavery, we took care of white women’s children and then went home to take care of our own. “I was thinking recently about how Black women don’t have models for rest because our mothers didn’t rest. “From the moment I was born, I felt like I had to be a strong Black woman,” says Black People Breathe author Zee Clarke.

In one drink!Īccording to Starbucks' website, a grande Caramel Macchiato contains 34 grams of sugar-if the barista is conservative while adding that caramel drizzle (which we all know is the best part and half the people we know ask for extra caramel drizzle, tbh). You may prefer to blend for two minutes, wait 30 seconds and repeat two more times. Once the milk and espresso is added, caramel sauce is drizzled on top. Use a blender that can handle such a long blending time. While the vanilla flavor is strong (and slightly artificial tasting), I still. The barista starts by pumping three pumps of vanilla syrup into the bottom of the cup. If youre a regular vanilla latte drinker, youve gotta try mix of espresso, oat milk, and toasted vanilla syrup. Four pumps may not seem like a lot, but when you look at the calories and sugar levels in each single pump, it's kind of nauseating. Tall drinks come with three, venti hot drinks come with five, venti iced drinks come with six (the Caramel Macchiato is the only exception to this rule, but it makes up for one less pump with the addition of caramel drizzle).
