New images of 3I/ATLAS taken with the Nordic Optical Telescope on 11/11/25 show no evidence for breakup following perihelion and still exhibiting a sunward "anti-tail". https://faculty.epss.ucla.edu/~jewitt/NOTpictures.pdf

Yep, that's what I have for Terrin as well, assuming he wasn't targeted by Aywin.

I'd assumed from @Leatherhead's question that everyone on the team had been targeted by Aywin because it didn't really make sense to ask about Terrin's casting this far after the fact. I hadn't seen in the thread who specifically was targeted by Aywin and had assumed it wouldn't stack anyway...

Sorry, I wasn't clear. I was asking about the healing benefit of the spell rather than the bonus to max hp which we already had and, I assume, is being extended to eight hours from the time of Aywin's casting. Do we each heal another 5 hp, or does the higher amount of healing we already received...

So even though Team Infiltrate were already benefitting from an earlier casting of aid, they regain another 5 hit points from Aywin's casting?

Terrin cast aid on team infiltrate during the battle with the cultists and mercenaries. Another casting wouldn't stack, would it?

I hadn't heard of Prof. Loeb before the publicity around 3I/ATLAS, but my impression is he has made the search for extraterrestrial technology a focus of his career and that he is using the appearance of 3I/ATLAS and 1I/'Oumuamua as an opportunity to make a case publicly that this type of...

Peter Weiss, trailblazing human rights attorney, has died at the age of 99.

Terrin approaches Bjorn in his frog form on the cliff overlooking the water. "This cursed serpent knows not my Lady's rest," he says, indicating the pool where the hydra lurks, "but draws its regenerative power from the virulence of its own blood." He declaims a short guttural phrase in a...

Carlos Alberto Manzo Rodríguez, mayor of Urupuan, Mexico, in the western state of Michoacán, was shot and killed in a crowded plaza during Day of the Dead celebrations on Saturday. He had been an outspoken critic of drug cartels and organized crime.

"Hydras have many heads, from what I've heard," Terrin says from his seat on the cave floor. "Trying to sneak past one sounds like a good way for someone to get killed. Might it not be better for a strong swimmer among us to serve as a decoy, possibly to draw the beast out where we can all...

Ogremoch. Terrin turns the name over in his mind as his awareness grows of the evil which permeates the black rock of the mountain. "I have repaired what I could," he says, "but it wasn't enough to contain the ancient evil spirit who was once imprisoned here and, I fear, escaped many years ago...
