D&D General Satine Phoenix is trying to make a comeback

[Morrus]

I'm uncomfortable with this thread. It appears to serve little purpose other than to dogpile on another human being, and seems unnecessarily cruel. One can rationally discuss past actions and wrongdoing, especially for those who continue to do so (like the NuTSR folks did for years), but we aren't Twitter. Dial it down and stick to the facts please folks, or the thread will get closed.

Let’s be honest. The only reason she even cracked the D&D scene was because of her history in the adult film industry and I don’t think they would even want her back. Hard pass hoping that this fails miserably and she’s never heard from again. Her history has proven her to be a dumpster fire of a human being and it looks like nothing has changed.

I think the first time I saw her in anything was on Tabletop. I think they were playing Cards against Humanity and she won. She might have been in gaming-related things before that but those were not things I was aware of at least.

One of the major issues with both Chick's Dark Dungeons and large parts of the Satanic Panic is that they are driven (in part) by a fundamental inability to understand "make believe".

Oh, they understand. They know escape when they see it and there is nothing a jailer wants to destroy more.

So there's the 2019 answer to that question, two years before her own actions were revealed. That should settle that specific aspect.

As far as the main thrust of her character:

Abusers do deserve the chance to become better people. Whatever the abuse is. Racism, homophobia, ableism, transphobia, aphobia. Even physical, emotional, and financial abuse. The chance to grow, to forgive themselves, maybe even be forgiven (though it isn't required). But they're going to live a very long time after they stop doing harm and need to be given that second chance at life.

What she's doing is -some- of that.

She stopped posting on Twitter back in 2022, sure. But she kept on posting to her Instagram. Where she remade herself within a year into an Influencer and Life-Coach with no remorse or even comment on the damage she did or the people she hurt. She just swept it all under the rug and pretended it never happened.

Oh, sure. She still posts D&D content sometimes, like when she decided to host a giveaway of her various D&D materials, including exclusives.

Or when she went to the Gathering of Gamers as a special guest.

Mostly she just tries to do the Health and Wellness grift for cash. Which is probably where the, frankly, wild takes she had on D&D came from. Trying to speak almost exclusively in the grift's language while talking about D&D leads to a lot of psychobabble to try and make "Rolling dice and telling a story in a game made for nerds" acceptable to the Anti-Aging Wrinkle Creams and Crystal Healing audience she's farmed up.

She might get dragged onto the occasional podcast for someone to try and farm outrage, or because they don't know any better, but she's out of circulation and likely best forgotten.
