    I’ve had this idea for a trans pirate pc for awhile that would fit in well on Genders table. Captain Cuntbeard gets his name from being a loud and lewd ladies man, always bragging about conquests and offering to let the cabin boy smell his fingers. He says his name is because he can’t get the stink out of his ticklewhiskers no matter what. He is also prepolymorph, so his beard is fake, he shaves his genitals and thighs and glues it onto his face. His motivation for being a pirate is enough gold for a permanent polymorph spell or magic item, in the meantime he has a small stock of polymorph potions that he occasionally uses. He has this whole routine where he gets a barmaid into private, does the whole get comfy we don’t have to do anything, tells her his secret, seduces her, and begs her to keep his secret for fear of his life…















  • My career hasn’t changed much since the 1700s, I’m a winemaker. Our company doesn’t have a vineyard we buy grapes from farmers, so our winery is in the city not some villa on the hill. At first glance our warehouse full of barrels is pretty similar to an old school winery. I could show my counterpart advances we have made in automation, like our bottling line or the giant industrial press, and I bet they’d get a kick out of moving stacks of barrels or fermentation tanks with a forklift. Using food grade plastic instead of wood makes cleaning easier, and our pump is electric not hand driven, but ultimately little has changed. Our wine lab is pretty high tech and probably the main exception, I dont think they tested for things like acidity and sulfur levels until the industrial revolution. I was literally just talking about this yesterday with my coworker. We had the bottling line out in the yard and we were sanitizing it by pumping boiling water through it with a diesel powered compressor. My contemporary may not understand sanitizing, or the equipment we used to do it, but he would easily understand the bottler and the importance of keeping it clean. I would love to share a few bottles of modern wine with a pre industrial master and vice versa.
