Though the Troupe cut down the Blacktalons guarding the Iron Throne’s mine, only half of them made it out alive. Beaten, weary, and half-dead in more ways than one, they retreat to the Temple of Wisdom in the Friendly Arm to raise the fallen.

I am Bok, a British-born expat living in China. I was born in Lancashire but identify as a 'plassie-Scouser'. I spent my youth growing up in Cumbria. Here I developed a great taste for exploration, climbing mountains and camping in the wilderness - a taste for travel that has defined my life.
Laos: Home of the Butterfly
I don’t think I’ve ever seen as many butterflies as I have while travelling Laos. I’ve always loved these amazing creatures, and to see so many in one place was such a joy.
Wasteland 2: Director’s Cut
Wasteland 2 opens with a funeral, and I’m already mourning the hours I’m about to lose to this massive, brutal world. This one’s going to take a while to complete, so here are my initial impressions of what, so far, looks to be a very fun game.
Fixing Lepidopterist Trades
Porting and maintaining multiple versions of a mod can be a lot of work. Sometimes things slip through the cracks. One of those things were the Lepidopterist’s trade offers. I didn’t notice until after release that the Lepidopterist wasn’t offering all the trades they were supposed to.
Bok’s Banging Butterflies Showcase
A short while ago, a Youtuber called Lord Cat II offered to do a mod showcase for Bok’s Banging Butterflies. I love the result, and I especially like seeing someone enjoying the work I’ve put into this creation.

Aegon and the Troupe have finally located the Iron Throne’s Mine within the Cloakwood. After scouting the area, they learned there was only one way in. They marched through the front gates to find heavily armed bandits waiting for them.
I Went to Prison in Vientiane
Okay, no, I didn’t actually go to prison. Yes, this is a clickbait title. But this quirky little café-bar just outside the centre of Vientiane is definitely worth a visit if you’re looking to add some unusual fun to your night out.
Darwin Kastle’s Cthulhu Realms
Ever wanted to build a deck of unspeakable horrors to shatter your opponent’s sanity? Cthulhu Realms lets you do just that. Based on the Cthulhu mythos, this tongue-in-cheek deck-building game challenges players to conjure sinister combos, manipulate minds, and adapt their strategy on the fly to drive opponents into madness.
A Butterfly Spawn Category
One problem that’s been around since the mod’s inception is that butterfly spawns take away from other animal spawns. That means fewer cows, sheep, rabbits, and so on in any Minecraft game with Bok’s Banging Butterflies installed. And as more butterfly species were added, the problem only got worse.
