This feels like an appropriate place to comment that passwords of that length are essentially uncrackable by modern standards and that you have no need for the pesky and easily forgettable special characters or numbers! Relevant xkcd.

Quick note on the comic - dictionary attacks are possible now, so four plaintext words is not enough without special characters, but 10, like your example, is more than enough :)

Pass-sentences are also easier and faster to type depcite being longer.

I didn't realize that someone could use it to create real passwords (...which now seems obvious).

So I added a warning, just in case.

Be cool to each other. We'll welcome most occult themes, it's okay if you stray from witchcraft a bit.

No advertising. No trolling. No hate. Violaters will be removed unceremoniously.

We love art credits when possible.
