Ah, that explains it. I never watched that cartoon.
Ah you should, it's really, really awesome.
Important tidbit: the reason the show wasn't renewed for the (whatever the number that would be) season is because one of the episodes they portrayed an abusive relationship completely seriously (no, really, seriously. They have evil organizations and Eldritch abominations rampant in that show, and an abusive boyfriend is downright the most terrifying thing They threw at us) and portrayed a lesbian relationship positively. More so the latter than the former.
What show?
Courage, the cowardly dog.
It aired on Cartoon Network, as a series, from '99 to '02.

What mischief will you be up to this weekend?
Sleeping.
Hopefully being able to play in our live Occult game. Galt got taken over by Calistrians so we're trying to... well, I'm sure the GM wants us to do something but so far we're pretty much "Either the Calistrians are going to do better, the same as ever and get chopped, or burn the place down to the ground permanently. We don't care, it's Galt."

I approve of this (several months later).
Crossposted in AMA threads: it's a Paizopaloozaganza!
You're not exactly Paizo, but you've an AMA, so heregoes!
Super-serious series of questions*:
*
If you could have different super-powers, what would they be and why?
(Assume corollary powers required to make a given power work are part of it; i.e. Since you'd need super tensile strength/durability to, you know, not-die when you made use of your super-strength power, you get them both when you say "super strength" as a singular option.)
Why?
If, instead, you could be a gestalt of super heroes, who would you gestalt to be yourself? Why? Which comic universe would you run around in? Would you prefer to be in that one, or this one?
On the other hand: BAM! You just gained levels in a Pathfinder class (or classes)! Which class(es) do you pick, and why? Incidentally, if you could spontaneously switch races, would you? And if so, to which?
Similarly, you won the super-lottery, and gained mythic tiers! of 'em! (And you gain class levels to match; please feel free to change your previous answer if this does so for some reason.) What path do you take? (Alternate option: substitute a single tier for a simple mythic template.)
Yet another query: you monster. Specifically, you (or less) monster! Which are you?! ... and would this have been your first choice? If not, which would be?
But the wheels of fate-time have spun again, and your everything has been transposed into that of someone else! You've just become a prepublished NPC from an official source! Which prepublished NPC is it?
What campaign setting do you run around in? Why?
As a final thing: blend any and/or all of the above questions into a single ginormous question: an optional blend of a prepublished NPC, monster, and some superheroes all walk into a bar... and out comes you, as a gestalt of those guys, the race you choose, some extra superpowers, and have extra class levels and mythic tiers on top! What are you?! (Other than "awesome" - naturally.)
Equipment is a non-issue (like adjunct super-powers; what you need to do <X> is assumed). Also note that any significant others can be brought with you.
"Official" and "Pre-published" are loose terms, but general expect something that has a solid publishing company and identifiable map/world/conceits behind it (like WotC for Forgotten Realms, Eberron, Dark Sun, Greyhawk, etc; or Green Ronin for Blue Rose, but not "True20"; or Paizo for Golarion, or the Maelstrom, or the upcoming Starfinder; but not "the Bestiaries" or "the Planes" or things like that - basically things that people can find and nerd out about with you). Similarly, if it has a solid AP out for it, that, too, is acceptable (like Legendary Planet; or any of Paizo's APs). It should probably be a d20 variant, but it can be whatever you like of those many variants (True20, Blue Rose, Paizo, 3.5, 3rd; etc.). That said, if a Homebrew or otherwise "weak" entry just needs to be there due to compelling reasons... okay. Similarly other systems. Let us know why! Computer and video game translations of such (Neverwinter Nights and/or expansions/sequels; PFO; etc) are acceptable as interpretations as well.
Similarly, for comics, it needs to be superheroes that people can reasonsonably be expected to come across - "that one I made up with my cousin as a kid" is an awesome answer, and worth noting and why, but prrrrooooobabaly isn't the best choice, unless it's just so powerful that you've GOT to. In which case: sure, but bring us along for the ride! Related, the super need not come from one of the "big two" in comics, so long as the people and world is both recognizes me and accessible - choosing The Incredibles world is valid (and awesome), as is Spawn (blech); you're not just limited to Marvel or DC. Similarly "standard" powers need not apply - so long as it is clearly communicable, it's fine (even if all the field specifics aren't clear, that's okay - knowing you're powered by our yellow star is fine; you don't need to know this, but it's acceptable if you do).
Finally, presume you have the basics necessary for a happy life. Your spouse, best friend, and so on, can all be considered to "come with you" (should they choose to do so) wherever it is that you go.
Oh, and one more thing: if you lived through a Legend of Zelda (as one of the Links); which would it be, and why?
Thanks! Enjoy!

Hello Mistress Rysky,
How do you pronounce Rysky? I imagine it is like risky....
Also what do you think of the Silence coming out of Gencon? Besides the AP announcement and more Starfinder it has been quiet...too quiet.

It makes me think of "risky" but I've always mentally heard it as "Rye-ski", like a shortened version of "rye whiskey". If this is wrong, I blame it on listening to too much Pete Seeger.

risky is fine, as is risqué :3
*shrugs*
Outside of the Pazio related stuff I don't usually pay attention to Gencon so to me it hasn't really been any quieter or louder...

Oh, there wasn't?
I heard more about Starfinder and they announced Ruins of Azlant. Did they more last year?

Yeah we usually about what coming out across all product lines and go more in depth with at least the fall HC release (Villain's Codex this year).
But we have been hearing nothing except for two small announcements.

Horror Adventures had a sidebar in the Spells section about how casting spells with an alignment descriptor can shift your alignment, sometimes with as few as two or three castings, or even once in truly egregious cases (such as human sacrifice).
More than a few members of the forum are displeased. There are arguments about RAW and anti-alignment statements, and some... aggressive anti-Paizo sentiment... is starting to ooze into the thread.

Pretty much.
Though these aren't optional rules, they've just been implicit rather than explicit. Horror Adventures changed that.

All rules are mandatory, at all times.

Do any popular spells have the [dumb] descriptor? 'Cause if [evil] spells corrupt & damn, then [dumb] spells would have a similar effect...
