Fantasy Guide: Common battle wounds and how to fix them
- Arrow wounds: Now if the lung, heart, kidney, other major organ is hit, there may be little to do. The kidney has a back up, so maybe a skilled surgeon could save him, not exactly sure however. If hit by an arrow and not hit dangerously in an organ or artery, we can help. Firstly, DO NOT REMOVE arrow by yanking. Arrow must be worked from the skin by skilled hands. Once arrow is out, wash would with clean water/alchohol/herbal remedies. To heal slow, sew up wound and wrap in bandages. To speed it up, cauterise the wound with fire. It will hurt and patient pay pass out but now the arrow wound can heal faster. This works for crossbow bolts as well. On the gross side, arrows may be smeared with dirt or shit, so sepsis is a danger. This is how the great Richard the Lionheart died. Sometimes the mighty lion is killed by a shit arrow. But hey, shit happens. Arrow wounds take a couple of weeks to heal.
- Sword slashes: if shallow, wash and bind up. May require stitches. If deeper, repeat process with more stitches and more bandages. Even if shallow, the cut must be washed using alcohol or clean water. May take a few days to weeks to heal depending on wound depth and severity.
- Stab wound: Again don’t remove knife or object. If already removed, wash would and sew it up. You may need to cauterise. If guts, organs, brain, is falling out, there is nothing to do. This may take a couple of weeks to months to heal depending on wound.
- Broken Bones: A break must be splinted with a board of wood and bandages. Slings can support arms and wrists. If your character breaks a leg, it may be worse. Breaks don’t heal great without modern medicine. Your character may have a limp or leg pain. In you’re are living in a hot climate, you’re pretty much fucked because infection sets in fast. These may take months to heal.

Hi friends,
Thanks so much for your patience as we’ve tried to figure out what to do about JK Rowling’s ongoing transphobia and bigotry. Fiona and I just had the chance to talk about this and here’s what we’ve come away with:
Both of us have been feeling not particularly creative because every time we go to make quotes, we get distracted and upset as we think of how awful she’s been. We feel cheated and betrayed by who she’s become and what her views have become. We’re sad and angry. We’ve always done this for fun - but when friends and family of ours are materially affected by the views she espouses, repeatedly, loudly, it’s hard to remember the fun.
We acknowledge that her most recent bout of bigotry has not been the first time we’ve been disappointed by her (nor the first time we’ve been disappointed by female role models…Margaret Atwood may, to quote Bart Simpson, “eat [our] shorts”). But the camel’s back is getting awfully fragile.
Fiona and I are friends in the first place because of Harry Potter. We created HPHQ in March 2012. Over the last eight years, we’ve developed a community - you guys - that we both value so so so dearly.
So we are going to keep doing it. This blog, this art project, this community, is something that we have built together (we’ve created over 16,000 quotes!), and we don’t want to give it up, despite what JK Rowling says. HPHQ was never hers, so we won’t let her take it from us.
However, we’d like to note that due to our disappointment with JK Rowling, we have also decided to put our Patreon on indefinite hiatus. Neither of us feels terribly comfortable with making money off of this. On the whole, in fact, we are rethinking our long-term creative plans for the blog. We don’t know what form that will take, but do know that we’ll let you know as soon as we know.
Anything that we’ve said here or elsewhere on the blog is our own opinions. We don’t speak for anyone else and we don’t want to tell any of you how to think or feel. If you are no longer comfortable with any part of Harry Potter, we understand and we wish you well. If you are still with us, we thank you. We encourage you to read widely and critically, and to form your own opinion of how to react to JK Rowling’s actions.
We’re not going to harp on this. We’re going to keep doing what we’re doing, because we love it. You may not see any overt changes, but rest assured that we are keeping abreast of the news and revisiting our actions at every step.
We’d also like to say thank you to everyone who wrote in to say something kind, to lend your two cents, and of course to everyone who continues to submit quotes. We did take your opinions into account. If you used slurs, you were summarily blocked. We work hard to keep bigots and drama off of our blog - we always have. And we will continue to do so.
In sum, I suppose we’d like to say that we don’t know much, and we’re learning at every step, but we do know a few things:
Trans women are women.
Trans men are men.
Trans people are people.
And we’re sticking around for a while.

Things that took me way too long to learn about colour theory
-colours are nothing but RELATIVE -neutral backgrounds. NEUTRAL BACKGROUNDS. they make your colours pop because COLOUR. RELATIVITY. -rim light are a cheat sheet for making awe-worthy art -on that note, DON’T DROWN YOUR DRAWINGS IN RIM LIGHT. LESS IS MORE. -light purple + ‘multiply’ = BEAUTIFUL SHADOWS -hell any light colour + ‘multiply’ = bam you have atmospheric shadows -orange/yellow light + blue/purple shadows (because our instinctual reference for light… is the sun. which is yellow/orange. and blah blah blah something light physics blah blah it makes the shadows the opposite colour, so opposite of yellow/orange sunlight is purple/blue shadows). I mean it’s a nice default but it’s not set-in-stone and other colour palettes add mood so GO ON WITH YOUR COOL LIGHTS AND WARM SHADOWS
(cont. if people are interested)
okay so since having posted this I’ve been receiving articles about actual colour theory (which I’ve all ready before.. it’s just hard to internalize without actually practicing it) and I’ve discovered I GOT SOMETHING WRONG. shadows are blue NOT because the sunlight is orange… but rather because the sky is.
bear with me.
so the sky, it’s blue, and you know how if you have a colour gel it’ll cast that colour onto things? so the sky is like that, casting blueness onto everything (albeit not nearly as strong as colour gels). but the sun, being this bright-ass orange light, casts ITS orangeless onto things the light directly touches, and washes out that blueness like “haha fuck you blue imma take this spot now.” so anything the light touches is tinted orange because of the dick sun. anything that the light doesn’t touch/is in shadows is tinted blue because of the sky. I guess it’s a coincidence that the sun and sky happen to be opposite colours (OR IS IT??) so the contrast between light/orange and shadow/blue really pops.
faq I just made up right now:
“so I should be adding a bit of blue to my orange light?” the technical answer is yes. however because I am a fake artist that cheats with things like photoshop and the undo button, I don’t see it as “adding blue,” rather I understand it as “desaturating the colour” because FAST-FORWARD TO THE PT. 2, adding the opposite colour to something will desaturate the colour. so if you’re doing realistic lighting, absolutely do desaturate your orange. if you’re doing a stylized palette with bold colours, still desaturate your orange but I guess not as much because REMEMBER. COLOUR RELATIVITY. IF EVERYTHING IS BOLD, THEN NOTHING IS BOLD.
“so all my lighting should be orange and all my shadows should be blue?“ fuck no, art’s all about taking creative liberties. you want more realistic lighting, go for it. you wanna do something else that conveys other moods, go for it. just UNDERSTANDING this is our default understanding of lighting will help your decision on what colours to use (e.g. blue lights are often used in sci-fi settings because (1) blue is opposite of orange, so blue lights look “alien” to us, (2) blue light as we know is only possible through technology, so “alien” + “technology” = sci-fi. semiology, yo)
“wtf why is colour theory so hard” buddy I’m with you there.

My friends.
I’ve heard tell that a coven has formed.
That news alone concerns me. However my closest allies have informed me that some of you have betrayed your oaths to the cult.
It goes without saying that we shall conduct no business with any debased and diseased coven. And yet I hear that some of you are double dealing.
This will not be tolerated.
Take this torch.
We will purge this evil from within us and then we will burn this coven’s pillow fort to the ground.

My friends...
We’ve done it.
We’ve purged every trace of that disgusting coven from this land.
And what better way to celebrate after a long hard day of snacking and purging than...
A pool party.
