Just wanting to mock more adhering to this stupid rule because "it wasn't contradicted since 2e", just for context

My country is (rounded up) 312k square miles large and has population of 38 million. That means in the entire country there are 38 Mages. Average children's classroom is 32 kids. My factory job, just for the sector I'm in, needs around 40 people divided in 4 shifts. This is hardly enough to make working society of a single organization in a large aglomeration, less alone 9 Traditions and 5 Methodologies and how many Disparates and Crafts in the whole country. You literally cannot run a game or write a supplement using such statistics. It is outright claustrophobic and leaves no room to actually establish anything. How can anyone play liek that unless they have no sense of scale is beyond me.

I was going for only pics on white Background but couldn't find one for Doom.

General information for those who don't know:

Thorgal is a classic part of French-Belgian comics scene, co-created by French writer Jean Van Hamme and Polish artist grzegorz Rosiński., that has been running since 1977, currently consisting of 43 albums (29 written by Van Hamme, 36 illustrated by Rosiński), and had three short-lived spinoffs (Louve, about Thorgal's daughter; Kriss de Valnor, about series' recurring femme fatale and Youthful Years, about Thorgal as a teenager) and a current spinoff-anthology Thorgal Saga that adds "untold tales" set between older albums.

It is set in a world that is supposed to be early-medeival Europe but with many names changed and things being vaguelly different. Aesthetically it seems closer to art usually found in stories of Jirel of Jory or some interpretations of Elric, than Conan. It has a lot of trappings of both fantasy (Norse Gods are real, there is quite a lot of magic wielded by, at best aloof, at worst evil, sorcerers) and some science-fiction elements left by long-ago fallen, advanced civilization of Atlantis.

Thorgal Aegirsson (name translates to: Thor's Gift, Ice Giant's Son) himself is what makes me unsure if the series would be classified as Sword & Sorcery. On one hand he has a lot of traits of typical hero. He has his nominal skill (archery) but often relies on wits and cunning to outsmart his enemies - in fact, you could say the latter is his first option to go and violence is only last resort, he isn't fond of killing either. He is considered to be incredibly attractive to many beautiful women, but he marries by second album in the series and remains faithful to his wife. He has both special herritage and destiny but all benefits of them seem to have skipped past him onto his children, while leaving him with unwated attention from the Gods and tendency of being dragged into every messed up thing going on around. This, combined with his, unusual for a Viking, attitude mark him as a clear outsider and even when he settles in somewhere he is often forced to leave for another adventure or it is clearly he doesn't fully belong. Or both, usually both. He does appear to be more reactive a lot of time, tho if an inciting incident of new adventure hits, he jumps the call with no hesitation. I do think the series was leaning more forwards Sword & Sorcery during Van Hamme's run where Thorgal geniuelly seemed unable to stay in one place for long and was often forced to be more proactive in quest of finding a place he and his family can be left alone, while under following writers he does have a village to which he returns between new problem arises, so he has now a status quo and is more reacting to things that disturb it than proactive as before. Then again he also grows older and wiser as time goes on, and his children are born and grow up - in current era his eldest son is a young adult and could be considered a secondary protagonist and his daughter is in early teens now. And yes, all his kids were conceived and born during the series, not before it.

(Also, I'm be geniuelly curious how'd a conversation between him and Conan or Elric go, just by sheer difference of temperaments and demeanor)

Long story short what this means: Other companies paid WB 100+ Millions to be able to use Supergirl's likeness, meaning the movie made its budget back before even premiering.

Snyder Cultists cannot read so I expect them to pretend it was WB who paid so much for the promo, not the other way around.

SPOILERS FOR SCARLET HOLLOW

The character is Reese Kelly, son of only doctor in Scarlet Hollow, smal mining town in Appalachian Mountains where the game takes place. Been trying to figure out what he'd be in WoD, here is a list of possibly relevant facts, unmarked spoilers for the game, which I highly recommend btw:

• Reese was conceived by some unspecified entity that would visit Dr. Kelly in her dreams
• At the age of twelve he started transforming into a monster when agitated. Fear of what he could do prompted his mother to start poisoning him, first with Klonopin, then with ricin, this didn't kill him for around a decade but kept his body in so weak and damaged state, he was unable to transform.
• It is very much stated by Dr. Kelly that his tranformations are unaffected by full Moon and he has no reaction to silver, she directly dismisses the idea of him being a werewolf, at least not the popular fictional type.
• He has two transformed forms. In one he is slightly taller, his face has light animalistic featurs - sharp teeth, cat-like eyes - and elf-like ears, and he has a tail. In other form he is much bigger and displays traits of several animals, with comparisons being drawn to horses, lizards, bats and even extinct Hell Pig.
• After transforming, he is able to survive shotgun blast to the face and hit from bear tranquilizer, but he falls to a hit from elephant tranquilizer. He seems to possess regenerative abilities, but can die from multiple shotgun shots and his body can be destroyed by fire. If slain he does not revert to human form.
• While transformed he is able to bring his paintings to life as living paint creatures that obey his commands, seemingly even subconcious ones.
• He seems instinctively afraid of Sam Wayne (guy with veil on his head fighting him in one of the pictures), sensing something horribly wrong with him. From what we can tell so far, Wayne appears to be a dead body hosting some sort of eldritch entity, I would guess in WoD terms closest thing to Wayne would be some sort of Fomor.
• His regenerative abilities are not strong enough to heal some sort of damage Wayne does to his shoulder, at least not instantly, and he seems to be hurt there even a day after.

I was thinking some sort of Fera, but he is clearly nto a Garou. Maybe a weird Fomor or a Changeling?

They've been rollstomping everything, the only thing that changes is who at any given moment is praying to be saved by the Emperor/Omnissiah, and who is aura farming.
