…still very funny to me that she chose the name Mildred

oh also she has a massive crush on my gf @tranquil iron’s paladin character Ionia

which. can you blame her.

she also has a crush on a half elf twunk merchant with good cheekbones and a lot of magic items because she is ✨ bi as hell ✨ (also ace as hell but that’s less directly relevant)

[lime bramble]

Hope is just a fail woman with more suffering to go yet until she can rest for at least a year

13 irl years of one "canon run" of her. She is trans and bi disaster, she started as a shitty twink and eventually became strong butch woman

hi Marie

[uncut gale]

hello everyone. im having a lot of fun with bloody hand's shitass personality

what's wrong with her.

[neon summit]

nothing she’s doom’s favourite bisque doll

[uncut gale]

sooooo truuuuuuuuuuu

she's gonna kill a lot of people it'll be great

[worthy siren]

🥺

[uncut gale]

hi gal thank you this girlprince is awful and bad things are going to happen that are mostly her fault

[zenith glacier]

Been thinking about airship combat in esvalia and I really wanna make a pilot character for it

Their airship I’m kinda imagining flying like Faye Valentine’s ship in Cowboy Bebop

This kinda, floating thing that can move in all directions but is at its fastest moving straight ahead

Kinda thinking it’d also function like Faye’s ship in that it’s just a flying gun lol

Just a shit ton of armaments

[thin osprey]

If I can get the Abyssal Book I may see if I can find the Sauce to make one I think

Ironically I had an idea for an Abyssal-Adjacent Exalted character who's just an absurdly powerful Ghostblood (questionmark)

[zenith glacier]

“I was exiled from the church, stripped of rank and position. I myself was at a loss with my actions, how could I, a violent man as I, be a servant of the lord. I sought answers in my fellow priests and theologians, in the saints and monks of antiquity. I studied the book day and night searching for the place of one such as I. Yet I found their answers, wanting. I found nothing to find my new place in his kingdom. However, one passage did perhaps show me a way. The garden, Peter striking at the Roman for attempting to take the lord.” 

“Peter, the first of the apostles, the first of the popes, perhaps the greatest of both, and he was a similarly violent man. He too struck at the wicked man. It was that I realized, would be my place. Theologically speaking, I am still averse to violence. Jesus wished for us to love our enemies. But practically speaking, I understand we cannot all be as Jesus was, some of us must be as Peter was, and strike the centurion when he attempts to harm the lord.”```

My Catholic bounty hunter character for a western campaign my friend wants to run soon

[fervent tendon]

Oh damn. Love a good western character with some faith. I need to find a game where I can play my Inquisitor of J.P. Morgan (was a Gilded Age Chicago game with magic.)

[zenith glacier]

Oh that’s sick

[fervent tendon]

Yeah. Maynard Dwyer had entirely normal opinions on loan fraud. Entirely normal.

But that’s an amazing monologue.

[zenith glacier]

Thanks!

I’m really excited to play this character

[zenith glacier]

Chatroom I’m working on this guy some more, and I’m thinking about his Arsenal

I want him to use the weapons of the bounties he’s killed, and so far I want him to carry around a lever action rifle and a few pistols, but I’m kinda wondering what y’all think would fit a western setting for that?

Like specific guns that were common during then

[zenith glacier]

Also for this guy, I think I want him to be less a preacher and more a theologian

In another life he’d be writing philosophical manuscripts in north Italy

[zenith glacier]

Also Chatroom, with the era he’d live in he’d primarily have grown up in a divided Italy, what city do y’all think I should make him come from?

The obvious answer is rome if he was a Vatican priest but honestly I wanna make it a home city that’s interesting enough for him to be obsessed with

Like a proper Italian should

[verbal rain]

You say divided Italy, do you mean pre-Risorgimento?

[spiral granite]

The Papal States were a pretty big slice of the peninsula

So you got options

[zenith glacier]

Yah, I don’t know the exact date the campaign takes place in but with what age he’s gonna be, he’ll probably have been raised before the unification and before the idea of Italy as a nation was a thing

[verbal rain]

But also IIRC, he's going to face quite a bit of discrimination in the US.

[zenith glacier]

Oh yah I’m aware

[jolly crest]

btw!! my first ever proper dnd character

Helga Aurelia Theodora, half elf divination wizard who I hit with the Trans Beam after my egg cracked so her gender would match mine

shy sheltered academic type who… oh fuck she’s got a Disney Princess backstory

see
her parents were retired adventurers who always wanted to keep her safe due to their understanding of how dangerous the world can be
but this led to her being kind of lacking in common sense and very eager to get out there and see the Real World™️

auDHD creature

[grim wigeon]

YEAH

[visual storm]

Jellyfish hybrid witch. Running shows with magic and dancing

[zenith glacier]

I really wanna create a fight scene where Richard has lost the ability to use one of his arms and is pinned down

So he reloads a pistol via slamming it down on a magazine and then racks the slide with his teeth

[uncut gale]

hello. have you looked at A Bloody Hand Holds Aloft A Black Blade of Sorrow

now u have

[worthy siren]

she's so princely,,,

[uncut gale]

she is she's gonna fucking kill so many people

[zenith glacier]

I’m kinda curious, where do the Blaidd inspirations come in?

[high tendon]

BLAIDD MY BELOVED

[uncut gale]

Voice, I like the idea she sounds like Blaidd starting voice training

as i play more elden ring i'll let u kno if that soaks in anymore

[zenith glacier]

Oh sick

[high tendon]

oh dope

[zenith glacier]

I haven’t actually done voice claims for any of my OCs yet

[thin osprey]

Abyssal Melee users sit at a crossroad of guts or dante

[zenith glacier]

When someone picks up a big sword they are presented with a crossroads

One is wacky wahoo

One is angry roar

Both are depressed as fuck

[high tendon]

trueeeee

[zenith glacier]

also thinking about it more, I do wanna actually do voice claims for my OCs

[jolly crest]

…I seem to recall my Helga voice was heavily inspired by Taako Frumtivi Adventurezone

as in
“my voice but if it was perpetually cracking”

[high tendon]

I think my sad elf is voiced by Ben Starr

https://tenor.com/view/vergil675-gif-1892064365981582685

[uncut gale]

Nice pick!

[lime bramble]

he sure do be voicing sad scarred men with black hair

[zenith glacier]

Realizing of my main group, all the dudes are twinks or twink adjacent

[high tendon]

heh

twunks for me

[slate rapids]

is this chat for any OC's or just Chasm related ones?

[eternal prism]

Any!

[slate rapids]

oh thats sick

have these two <3

[eternal prism]

yoooooo

[uncut gale]

i mean, CHASM has its own discord lol, but if you want somewhere to talk about ur Cain and Icon OCs we have #cain-the-oc-castle and #icon-oc-tavern to match this spot and the original #oc-cantina

also NICE TWO

[jolly crest]

I actually was coincidentally meaning to make a princegirl recently so this amused me greatly to read

like
I was literally thinking that I wanted to make a Prince But A Woman (not a princess) character

<- it is thinking about Lucina Fire Emblem having access to the Rightful King skill because it’s a Great Lord class skill and the name doesn’t change based on the holder’s gender

…Lucina inspired blorb of some nature… hmmmm

[worthy siren]

girlprinces 🥺

[uncut gale]

yaaaay isn't it fun? i love when a girl is Princely and a lot of this has to do with watching utena recently and really falling in love with like, one of the foundations?

There's a certain vibe to Prince as a kind of presentation

that is, just... soooo charming!!!

Bloody Hand is a Prince out of habit!

[jolly crest]

…I do actually have a female character with the title princeling but uhhhh that’s different for several reasons

namely, she is not an elegant androgynous handsome woman or so on, but rather a 3 foot tall witch who had to stop making an exception to her vegetarianism for cannibalism after deciding she was gonna be a good guy because she had developed a massive crush on the paladin played by my gf

and the full title was Princeling of the Sulfur Throne

spectacularly fucked up little critter. she was made in a cauldron

[jolly crest]

oh right and the princeling title was for trans reasons forgot to mention that bit

[uncut gale]

hhehehehe well very good

im just making a goth prince with BH

i need to find like. good lookbooks for her

[jolly crest]

Titles: Chosen One, Coven-Son, Fated Enemy of Helcaned, Heir of Cergaroth, Master of Magic, Mistress of Magic, Princeling, Princeling of the Sulfur Throne, Princeling of Thunder and Lightning

Chosen One was, specifically, a title I picked for her. from the perspective of the Coven of the Cloven Hoof, the trio of night hag sisters who created her in a cauldron of 666 soul larvae on the stormy night of a full moon to be the heir and eventual avatar/vessel of the dead archdevil Cergaroth

she was doomed to be a dramatic goth freakass from the start really

[uncut gale]

Millie is hated by dogs, but nevertheless finds them, like all animals, adorable. By contrast, amphibians, bats, bugs, cats, goats, lizards, rodents, and snakes naturally gravitate towards her.

[uncut gale]

im having a lot of fun with the Fucked Up Goth Effects that Bloody Hand generates when she fucks up The Chivalry of Death

so far its uuuuuh [checks notes] what if she made ur shit a dark souls level

[jolly crest]

funfun

[uncut gale]

love when a girl gets so upset she vomits up a colorless fog that robs men of theirs wits and raises the dead from their graves

[jolly crest]

btw what do you mean by “fucks up the chivalry of death”?

curious if this is something that’d make more sense if I knew the game she’s being made for or if I’m just missing something or what

[uncut gale]

Oh, in Exalted everyone has a mechanic called LIMIT to represent lik, the stress of being a mythic hero in the epics. Most people gain limit from denying themselves, acting against their motivations, or being forced to compromise on their moral code. Abyssals do not. Abyssal gain Limit for breaking the Chivalry of Death

• To spare a life or through inaction spare many lives
• To go among the living and act as though you still belonged to them
• To answer to the name you bore in life.

Meanwhile she doesn't lower limit by having conversations with people or cathartic scenes! She lowers it by adhering to the Chivalry of

• Better long torment than a quick death, the living must know fear and horror.
• The mighty must fall before the weak. Slay the champions and spread despair.
• Let life be drowned in death, let creation and the underworld become one.

[jolly crest]

oh fun

[uncut gale]

yah~!

the classical limit break is like, achilles sulking in his tent

bh having a limit break is for the next ESSENCE days the dead will not stay in their graves and maraud the streets as hungry ghosts

[jolly crest]

…oh it’s spelled maraud?? I would’ve taken it to be maraude but
no
I’m wrong

fucked up

[uncut gale]

It issss right?

[zenith glacier]

It is yah

Also Chatroom, for HUNT I wanna take the PF2E approach to fixation art

With each fixation being represented by a specific character

And I’m gonna wanna do some writing for each

hello i made one very important change to bloody hand's chart

[jolly crest]

Alucard removed…… evil…………

twunk obliterated

joking obviously I just like Alucard because I am bisexual and enjoy dramatic prettyboy vampires/dhampirs

…which ok by all accounts Lestat is also that but I haven’t actually read/watched that one so I’m going purely off what others have said

[wide skiff]

Crona?

Been a while since I've seen them around.

[uncut gale]

Lestat is the dramatic prettyboy bedrock our fujoshi foremothers worked upon tbh

[clever salmon]

None of these words are in the bible

Also, are self insert still considered too weird or am I being very self critical again

[uncut gale]

Self crit cringe is dead

[clever salmon]

Understandable

Time to activate self indulgent writing neurons and be a freak

Freak (positive)

[upbeat copper]

To be cringe is to be free, brother

[upbeat copper]

man I need to familiarize myself with Exalted

[wide skiff]

Is this the place to talk about Battlezoo shenanigans we made

Because I made an aeternal dragon drakewarden.

[clever salmon]

"It represents his inner dragon. As opposed to his outer dragon, which is himself."

[fallen sorrel]

You ever see like a meme in the wild and its like "wow my #oc i feel so seen"

And the meme is like this

Anyway im dreaming for the time and place to bust this one out

[verbal rain]

I know it's not the point, but I think "is", "the", "dramatic", "bedrock", "our", "foremothers", "worked" and "upon" were? But not sure on "foremothers".

Starduster ↩️

[Reply to:](#1356366183653310644 message) None of these words are in the bible

[jolly crest]

I mean, depends on the translation dunnit

(this has always annoyed me about that meme in a very very petty way)

…I don’t think I ever brought up Marian von Favidromos in this particular thread
dhampir ranger/fighter gestalt
incredibly autistic, has a dark aura around her, managed to land a prettyboy paladin/cleric gestalt bf via… ????? something

[zenith glacier]

One thing I really wanna do is properly think about how my main 6 OCs met and formed the 2nd Choices

I have vague ideas and some of them are easy (2 and sisters and 2 old friends) but I don’t really have an idea for how the group as a whole formed

[spiral granite]

No hits for "dramatic", "bedrock", or "foremothers" in the KJV or NIV

There are also hits tho for "to", "be", and "honest"

[verbal rain]

Hm!

[visual storm]

God I want to make Crona an rpg character and give them a happy ending

[vocal hedge]

I know someone who made the girl from Hereditary a dnd character and gave her a happy(?) ending

Go for it

[high tendon]

I should make more twunk elf characters.

[zenith glacier]

Kinda realizing that the only character who I have a face claim for is Randall, Leo’s master and massive con artist

Who I’ve modeled after Walton Goggins

[high tendon]

classic

[zenith glacier]

It’s mostly because I whenever I think of him I always think of his characters as like

At least a little bit scummy

I’m not sure he’s ever not played someone who’s not an asshole in some way

And Randall’s main character trait is that he sucks

[high tendon]

nodnod

[zenith glacier]

He’s basically a former imperial mage who was kicked out because he stole a shit ton of his superior’s spell books, and then pegged Leo for an easy mark when he found him super distressed when he accidentally blew up his friend’s home

Lying to him about being a former imperial mage who had to tragically leave the Corp after horrible injuries and convincing him he’d teach him how to properly control magic

He did actually teach him, but also drilled into Leo that now he owes him a debt that he’ll never be able to pay

So now he just drifts in and out of Leo’s life, taking whatever research, magic items, or even money Leo has gotten as Leo tries to pay off his imagined debt

Leo, despite being normally extremely paranoid and cynical, refuses to look into Randall despite how easy it would be to prove he’s a con man, just because he genuinely can’t imagine he was lied to

So all the shady shit Randall does is justified in Leo’s head

[high tendon]

DAYUUUUUUUUUUUUM

that is dark

Congrats, I now wish to punch Randall

[zenith glacier]

Many do

He’s also just, generally a con man

Leo is his largest scale long term “project” but he’s basically always running some scam

[high tendon]

what setting are they in?

[zenith glacier]

Modern fantasy setting

[high tendon]

ooooh dope

[upbeat copper]

idk why but I like the idea that my hunter in destiny helped my two other characters learn how to use revolvers

[zenith glacier]

I’ve been thinking about Leo’s magic

And I think I wanna make it a beat for him to realize that he’s not really controlling fire and lightning

Because fire and lightening aren’t real per say

They’re just visible energy

And him expanding that realization to general control over energy as his magic

[verbal rain]

sunday campaign is coming to a close and we'll be moving on to steampunk western (somehow not using an alternative ttrpg system 😒) and i'll be playing a pirate. not in the contemporary fantasy sense or modern sense but instead the historical sense of an auxiliary to the navy who became criminalized. this woman went to the trouble of creating a male identity to get a job only for her job to be redefined as terrorism and an international bounty retroactively placed on her when she admitted to having settled down from the job

woman who cannot catch a break and whose bond is simply wanting a crew that won't get her killed or worse

i gave her an incredibly puritan name (multiple party members convergently did) but it means her pirate name is extremely badass

i also speak some hebrew so i'm probably going to be the only one in my group that actually pronounces her name right

mahershalalhashbaz barbon, aka bosun charles adam (boatman man man), aka buckin' baz barbon

[clever salmon]

What system?

[verbal rain]

dnd 5e

[clever salmon]

Ah, yeah that'll do it

i'mma make an oc out of this fella

[upbeat copper]

huh

I would never have thought of reimagining link as having a liripipe to imitate his normal hat

[high tendon]

a liripipe?

[upbeat copper]

the kind of hood or hat with the pipe-tassel on the end

his is quite short, likely because it's meant to be evocative of his hat rather than fully practical

and yes, liripipes do have a practical purpose! They exist to be tied around your head like a headband to close the hood against the wind

[thin osprey]

I do like how they took away Links hat because they just gave up making it look cool

[upbeat copper]

I don't think the hat is too silly to look cool, but I do like that he has become headgear-agnostic

gives more room for design variation, like a liripipe

[thin osprey]

I mean that's the reason given is what I mean

“As the graphic fidelity has increased it becomes more difficult to make that hat look cool,” said Breath of the Wild art director Satoru Takizawa in an interview during the Game Developers Conference in San Francisco. “As the game becomes more realistic it’s difficult to present it in a way that’s appealing."

[high tendon]

oh that IS dope

[upbeat copper]

I... yes? I was saying I disagree with them that the hat can't look cool at the new level of fidelity lol

[high tendon]

Maybe they could do it like the TP manga?

sometimes Link has his hat like this

i like clay and i enjoy that the comments i best remember having gotten on her playlist are "i'm surprised there's no hozier on here," "i'm picking up a certain 'burnt out' quality," and "oh it's fuckin dire huh"

nobody who isn’t a depressed slutty goth with religious issues would have this much Depeche Mode or Nine Inch Nails on the playlist designed to represent their personality, is all I’m sayin

"Tell em you failed!"

[visual storm]

True
Crona and Ragnarok. Could put in double cross, scion.
Deviant the renegades absolutely has no happy endings
Hm what rpgs are good for anime

Also, two scion ocs to drop here
One is a spider who managed to tale divine power, becoming a looney tunes character. She desperately tries to be funny
Another is a doll, neglected by her old owners, animated by Amaterasu, who tries to be reliable and likable. At first her ambition was to go to Heaven and be kept on display, occasionally pulled out to do things or be cute. But she is learning how to person and want things
Both are trans

Oh, give Tenna's "It's TV time" to the spider

i gotta figure out what part of fantasy england my steampunk pirate living in fantasy western us would be from and i truly have no idea. british naval officers, and british auxiliary privateers by extension, were from all over the isles

New OC idea, that I might turn into a book!

Elf adventurer that is a actually a magical nuke disarmament technician. He joins dungeon delvers so he can safely seal away the eldritch weapons that could unmake reality

[visual storm]

Spider gonna need a cartoon animal theme
Not sure what for sun doll

@solid sluice

[visual storm]

Hm, Silly Spider? Or she calls herself Hungry Spider and accidentaly scares people
Uplifted animals probably happen all over the world, but the section on them focused on how the Chinese ones, likely inspired by Sun Wukong, annoy the Celestial Bureaucracy, which tries to rehabilitate them into productive members of society
Second one guess I gotta search Japanese names

[zenith glacier]

Do y’all characters aura farm?

[vocal hedge]

Always

[clever salmon]

Of course

[grim wigeon]

always

[jolly crest]

Marian doesn’t do so on purpose but she does have an aura of predatory undeath that isn’t her fault (hashtag just dhampir things)

[visual storm]

Demon the descent oc: Her body is a core with a head and surrounded by arms, wings and eyes, which she often arranges into a robed angel form. Sometimes with a hand doing devil horns behind her head, to be funny
Depending on mood, she rearranges into other shapes, placing her arms and wings into position
She is a psychoomp who fell out of frustration for having her work restricted by rules and demands, and ruined by the god machine. She made herself a place in a neighborhood she shapes to her liking, while collecting information to protect her new life and work

[visual storm]

Silly/hungry spider tries to be more funny than cool, but may be tempted to
The sun doll will do it if it makes her seem competent at her work

[solemn wind]

I mean, he is going to be found frozen beneath the Antarctic ice, which is pretty cool. But he also is going to be holding a stuffed seal he got from his sister.
Essentially it's mage, and he's some Progenitor construct designed to work maintenance in blizzards and stuff. His main thing is his body is designed, and by default works at very low temperatures. And at temperatures he can't handle he essentially enters hibernation to be frozen till someone can retrieve him.
Personality wise he's quiet but emphatic kinda. The type to not think to congratulate a coworker after she comes back from maternity leave but will maintain her office plants water, nutrition, and sun intake meticulously without having to be asked.

[visual storm]

She is torn between being careful and pursuing desires, choosing being an Inquisitor but being prone to temptation. She wants to do things in a slow and steady manner, protecting the life she's building and slowly pursuing expansion and satisfaction. She also secretly cares about Justice and Kindness, but worries both about ruining what she has, and that she's inherently untrustworthy as a demon. All this could be inspiration for virtue and vice. She wants to improve the community around her, claiming as just wanting to do it for enjoyment and pride, but secretly due to caring
She warns people she deals with that demons are untrustworthy and claims selfish motivations, both to protect them from other demons and to keep a distance
She envies that humans genuinely laugh and cry. She does not wish to be human, she likes being a demon, but she wishes she could spontaneously express herself.
She sees how everything is a system even outside the God Machine, both society and nature, and believes perhaps she can attain Hell by truly stepping outside the machine and resonating with the world. Contact with other supernaturals would only spur her on: the ecosystem of the shadow, the Principle and its angels, the Truth patterns of the supernal reflecting here.
To her, Hell is having a place she can relax and let down the disguises. Deep down, she also sees it as a place where she is honest and trusted

[lime bramble]

they negative aura farm maybe

I kinda just make them suffer for suffering's sake

Hope, my main gal has someone trying to erase her from existence. she's on a training arc at the moment and is getting some power boosts, but she's gonna still like, lose an arm and leg and be successfully erased for a brief bit

Oh mage oc, nice

[solemn wind]

Yeah! I ran a game of mage for 5 years and finallly get to play one lol.

[visual storm]

What can he do?

[solemn wind]

Tbh not much, he's essentially a protype for making a self sustaining cryopod maintenence drone who can manage the pods for more important people while they sleep.

His constructed siblings like him though, creator is a bit of a uh... not as good person though. But Ike idiolizes them though.

He basically did the tango with that guy by holding his sword

[zenith glacier]

I kinda wanna have descriptions of their eyes for each of my main 6 OCs

Kinda, summing up their deal in how their eyes look to others

Richard has eyes like rocks, solid and unmoving, acceptance of his lot

Donovan has eyes like water, moving at the behest of the forces around him and to flexible to keep together

Dorothea has eyes like air, nothing visible behind them but felt throughout

Matilda has eyes like ice, frigid and unmoving, to inflexible for its own good, but ready to melt into water for the right person

Elizabeth has eyes like gold, soft and malleable, who’s sought after for its commodity but not its use

And Leo has eyes like lightning, quick and sharp, but cynical and predictable, always striking at the same points

[Reply to:](#1356366183653310644 message) if you can, tell him I've made a colorful stone butch with Cerise as an inspo lmao

[upbeat copper]

quoi?

[jolly crest]

oh seven = o7 = salute

[upbeat copper]

Ah

[jolly crest]

took us a sec but we got there

[verbal rain]

it's so common for pilots to openly message o7 to each other in elite dangerous's global chat that the in game station adminstrators now have

Oh seven, CMDR. That is what you people say, is it not?
in their greeting pool

[upbeat copper]

Ah lol

[verbal rain]

incredible evolution of a meme

the ED team at FDev is incredibly tuned into its community because as the game provides realistic simulation of the banality of hypercapitalist space they're very receptive and reactive to the impact their players have on the universe

[upbeat copper]

nice lol

[verbal rain]

Curious fact: The little keyboards that we see in the ships are actually the keyboard from the British Broadcasting Corporation's Micro computer.

[upbeat copper]

Nice

[upbeat copper]

I'm torn between making this character a Bloodrager or Kineticist

[verbal rain]

and the joysticks are based on the saitek x52, which brings an uncomfortable level of verisimilitude in vr mode!

Hell yeah lol

[upbeat copper]

oh yeah the mini's been updated

She is now pierced af

[clever salmon]

Not sure if this strictly counts, but I made this for a character of an upcoming DnD game of mine. All art is from Will Kirkby, aside from the bottom right which is part of a comm I got from Moiderah

[zenith glacier]

“Let’s all be drawn in Will Kirkby’s artstyle and not tell Redfearn”

[clever salmon]

Plot Twist

[zenith glacier]

Holy fuck

They did tell them

[uncut gale]

oofmie mentioned 🥳 yaaaay moid

also hell yeah it counts!!!

[zenith glacier]

Who is the oomfie?

[clever salmon]

Moid, I think

[uncut gale]

yes

[upbeat copper]

I'm making a 15th level PF character for the first two sessions of our new campaign

I can't wait for her to die

a woman in the livery of a mourning gunslinger or dueling bravo, an operatic bird's mask of filigreed porcelain, beak barely peeking out from under her veil. A fine dueling sword and pistol sit, sheathed and holstered, at her hips, sporting grips of matching ivory, a wickedly curved hunting knife sitting across the small of her back. Despite the veil, you know she's looking at you in particular.

And of course the inspo sheet

Also in the area of the homebrew world of the game the main culture is Louisiana Creole-inspired

[jolly crest]

man
what in the sweet hell is up with clay that the characters i solidly have on her inspo chart are batman, i-no, and three fucking fe3h characters (dorothea, manuela, yuri)

?????

the actual answer btw is "clay is a depressed goth slut with wine aunt energy"

don't. ask about why two of our most beloved characters are this. it's fine dw about it we're normal

[jolly crest]

we say "solidly" bc we also feel like rouge the bat and izutsumi dungeon meshi could possibly track but we don't actually know those chars as well yfeel

[jolly crest]

also the particular mix of swashbuckler and detective of batman really suits clay

(swords bard/swashbuckler rogue who runs a PI business on the side)

clay herself btw

[clever salmon]

Thinking about potential "aesthetics" for my dnd character's magic

And which one I'd want to go with

Currently I have the idea of their spells manifesting as cards, sorta like this image

But I'm unsure that fits the character well

Anyone have any opinions or ideas? Would like help brainstorming for this

If it matters, the character is a person from a modern earth who ended up in a Greek Myth-esque setting, and they manifested sorcerer powers upon arrival

Also they're a Draconic Sorcerer

[upbeat copper]

swashbuckler + brooding is a good combo, evidenced by my own swashbuckling assassin character

and like

Zorro

[jolly crest]

yesssssss

Clay is a very odd mix of

• heart/de facto therapist of the party
• brooding, justice-oriented, at times pretty damn violent investigator (I’ve said before that Vengeance DEXadin wouldn’t be out of character for her if it didn’t take away levels from the other classes that fit her better)
• slutty attention whore drama queen bard/swashbuckler type (the horny bard trope wasn’t even on my mind when I first made her 😭 she was originally a trickery cleric but then she reclassed and bard/rogue was just really fitting)
• skrunkly wine aunt
• emo failgirl

OH RIGHT that reminds me
Ashe from Thrilling Intent absolutely deserves a spot on Clay’s inspo list

[upbeat copper]

lol

[upbeat copper]

These are my character's inspos lol

[jolly crest]

team mom healer type who starts off very grumpy at her partymates when they get hurt but eventually softens up. and also Ashe is known as “Aesling the Neck Stabber” which feels appropriate given Clay once “smiled like a primate baring its teeth as a threat display” before stabbing a guy clean through the heart and then pushing him off her blade with her foot

or hoof technically ig

[jolly crest]

we recognize zorro and we think a soulsborne guy maybe? but other than that tbh it’s just spike spiegel and the princess bride doods who we actually know anything about

[upbeat copper]

My character is much more of a 'vengeance' person than 'justice'

[jolly crest]

we see we see

Clay is uh
both?
depends how well adjusted she’s deciding to be lmao

[upbeat copper]

The top left is Corvo Attano, whose plot is 'you killed my empress/wife and kidnapped our daughter, I'm going to fucking kill you all'

[jolly crest]

Clay 🤝 Ashe

team mom who is also an angry chihuahua who will stab you in the neck or at least yell at you for being an idiot and also the brooding mysterious one but then eventually she chills the fuck out and opens up a lot emotionally

[upbeat copper]

lmao

My character isn't going to have that opportunity

as she is not that kind of person, and is slated to die

XD

[jolly crest]

they r also both trans

Ashe isn’t explicitly but… she’s played by a trans woman, has a flat chest, is repeatedly noted to be physically androgynous, and has themes of being constricted by parental and social expectations
so like
in my heart she is 1000% trans

Aesling “Ashe” Thrilling Intent my beloved

[jolly crest]

rip lol

[upbeat copper]

noice

[upbeat copper]

Oh also Corvo gains magical powers in a dark bargain with an entity known as the Outsider, and my character Adonat has a similar deal

[jolly crest]

ohoho

[jolly crest]

actually we seem to recall having seen a tweet from her player once saying she’s cis but we also believe that mighta been from before her player transitioned irl so… ehhhhh

[upbeat copper]

Time to meet the Crow.```

[jolly crest]

oh dear!

well I’m sure that’s fine

[upbeat copper]

lmao

How familiar are you with Dragon Age?

[jolly crest]

0

[upbeat copper]

Fuck

XD

[jolly crest]

ok slightly more than that but effectively 0

[upbeat copper]

The voice is an old, dead deity of vengeance

[jolly crest]

(I know bits but they’re patchy enough that you’d have to explain the actual context)

[upbeat copper]

If I say the name 'Mythal' does that mean anything? XD

[jolly crest]

nope

it may b time to bring back the ol “I don’t consume media” status (I do but it seems to have hilariously low overlap w this server)

[upbeat copper]

F lol

[jolly crest]

remembering now a bit that happened that went

Rizi (kobold rogue, one of Clay’s partymates, her best [platonic] friend after initially being her rival): wake up Clay, it’s time for ✨ roguish arts ✨ training
Clay: can you, like, turn around for a sec so I can change into actual clothes?
Rizi: we’re both women, we have all the same parts
Clay: …mostly!

one of the other players said he nearly choked on water when Clay said that

Clay gets alchemical HRT btw ^w^

(it’s a blue pink & white potion because of course it is)

[uncut gale]

helloooo bloody hand got to do a hard line introducing herself

This sinner has no name to give you, friend. Such things this sinner has discarded. This sinner is 「A Bloody Hand Holds Aloft A Black Blade Of Sorrows」 and nothing more.

when introducing urself by the sobrequet given unto you by the lords of the pit u have to use stand quotes u see

[upbeat copper]

lmao nice

[jolly crest]

…reminded suddenly of our girl Splitter of the Skulls of the Weak tho technically discussion of her prolly belongs in #oc-cantina?? (dnd character played by a lancer character. fiendlock with a ghost shotgun for an eldritch blast bc Lupara is extra as hell)

[uncut gale]

A dnd character goes here

[uncut gale]

it’s cute when a girls personal pronoun is this sinner

[jolly crest]

the uncertainty, if it’s useful context, was mostly just that Splitter basically exists as an extension of Lupie’s character and doesn’t have any real stuff goin on with her herself lmao
nature of weird silly meta things

[jolly crest]

Clay has tief fangs btw so the slasher villain smile is extra effective on her

[zenith glacier]

Chatroom, I have a new OC for a limbus company TTRPG Voy is making

Santiago, named for the main character of the old man and the sea, a former syndicate member who carries the weapons of his dead comrades, after their syndicate was wiped out by a mysterious fixer (LOR spoilers ||Roland||) in less then an hour

[topaz narwhal]

Designing a team of npc assassins that all have Jojo stands because I'm running eidolon. Also the setting is animal people. I wanna figure out what animal they each are based on their fucked up powers

1. Journey: can create subway tunnels to anywhere
2. Black Hole Sun: Blasts microwave radiation in all directions within range
3. Mind Electric: can manipulate the electrochemistry of someone's brain by touching them. Its used to create false sensations, illusions, feelings, etc..
4. Electric Eye: when its secondary stand, hellion, attaches itself to a power grid, Electric Eye can see through electronic devices connected to that grid.

[jolly rose]

1. mole
2. frilled dragon
3. poison dart frog
4. electric eel might be too on the nose and too aquatic
   is my line of suggestions

[vocal hedge]

Badger
Cat
Frog
Zebra

[strong blade]

made my dnd character again cuz heroforge had a lot of updates since the last time i used it (may try to make him a lancer pilot again like i did previously but better)

was my first ever dnd character so im aware hes edgy, but hes fun to constantly remake lol

[jolly crest]

sometimes u just gotta make a sneaky stabby edgy rogue

[strong blade]

He's fun, his latest iteration also took a level of wizard cuz he was friends with the parties main wizard

[jolly crest]

ohoho

rogue wiz…

[strong blade]

That dagger was also a dagger used by a vampire cult that he was originally kidnapped for

Cuz what's an edgy rogue without some vengeance

[jolly crest]

true!

our own edgy bard/rogue is actually like
weirdly chill(?) with the trickery domain religious group she left at this point
or at least the specific branch she left, the larger one, ehhhhhh,

[strong blade]

His magic items are that blood mage dagger and dark fathom armor so I tried to make those visible in his design

Oh Vaughn is certainly not cool with them, lots of mental breakdowns lol

[jolly crest]

the bard/rogue in question

[strong blade]

Oh nice

[jolly crest]

goth tief

[strong blade]

Think I got a sketch of my boy

[jolly crest]

she grew up a street urchin and never knew her biological parents but a) they didn’t in fact abandon her for being a tief and b) she is actually pretty disinterested in their existence cos she has an adoptive dad she firmly considers her real parent

[strong blade]

He joined the party wearing their cult outfit so they gave him the armor to get out of it lol

[jolly crest]

…oh my god he looks oddly similar to the monk/alchemist of the group I play Clay in

does he have a Zuko esque burn scar on his face or are we seeing that wrong

[strong blade]

Nope he does

He got tortured a lot by the vamps

[jolly crest]

oh my god this may be mirrorverse agnum lmao

(white anime hair and big burn scar on face)

[strong blade]

All of his scars are from the vamps either bleeding or torturing him

He had blood that was especially beneficial to their process of creating thralls apparently

[jolly crest]

Agnum art I’ve done (#1 is modern AU) plus something that came up when I searched Agnum’s name in our group’s server that sums him up pretty well

[strong blade]

Lmao nice

[jolly crest]

Agnum is actually Clay’s future cousin in law

(she’s dating and planning to marry his cousin Paranelle)

[strong blade]

Oh nice

[jolly crest]

yeagh

[jolly crest]

we find this an incredibly funny relationship for two PCs to have

[jolly crest]

also art good!

[strong blade]

My guy didn't get his happy ending sadly, he wanted to reunite with his family but the DM literally ended the world and restructured it in universe

[jolly crest]

we like it

damn

[strong blade]

He was held captive for around a decade

[jolly crest]

another damn lmao

[strong blade]

yeahhhhhh

I like trauma characters apparently

XD

[jolly crest]

Clay has a fucking wild inspo list and for some reason half of it is FE3H characters

in order:
Aesling/Ashe (Thrilling Intent)
Batman (The Batman [2022])
I-No (Guilty Gear)
Dorothea, Yuri, Manuela (Fire Emblem: Three Houses)

[strong blade]

i mean, its a good game lol

hm inspo wise, would probably say his latest iteration is Gabimaru the hollow from Hell's Paradise

[jolly crest]

also we use Aeryn from Farscape as a visual pull sometimes (not 1:1, Clay is not built)

Clay has a strong jaw and killer cheekbones and also will actually kill you if you get in her way

she rules

[strong blade]

This is him from a previous campaign, tho not a fan of the DM for that one

similar story of cult kidnapping, but was brainwashed into being some sort of shock trooper that attacks without worry of self harm (broke out of it, but had occasional bouts of conditioning kick in)

[topaz narwhal]

Would it be too on the nose to give the assassins the names of Shakespeare characters

As a naming convention not callsigns

[vocal hedge]

Be on the nose

Subtlety is for novelists and ttrpgs imo are theater plays

You gotta shout to be heard so to speak

[jolly crest]

i know writers who use subtext, and they're all cowards

[topaz narwhal]

I see

[clever salmon]

Making a design, wondering which outfit looks better as a ref for a Gnoll Wanderer character

If it matters, it's a sort of Magi-Steampunk setting

And is heavily based off of Arcane aesthetically speaking

[zenith glacier]

I’d saw 1 then

[high tendon]

yoooooo

[jolly crest]

(who’s the artist? I take #2 is from Bloodborne?)

[clever salmon]

MinisterScrewtape

And yeah 2 is Bloodborne Concept art

[rigid wave]

I like a good defiance of a trope, so a fancy gnoll seems fun

[high tendon]

i have made a creature

[clever salmon]

what did you use?

[high tendon]

picrew

gimme a sec

https://picrew.me/image_maker/523501

[high tendon]

His name is Dashiell Thornton Redman. He’s a half-demon. Very DMC and hellboy inspired.

[clever salmon]

Really tempted to make a Demon OC for some reason

Perhaps even, godforbid, a Hazbin OC

[high tendon]

😱

[upbeat copper]

My upcoming Starfinder character's inspo chart

They are a Vulkarisu (small squirrel/fox person) mechanic with an exocortex AI and a penchant for weapons about as big as they are

[fallen sorrel]

Made a heroforge for my FU character lol

[eternal prism]

niiiice

[fallen sorrel]

He's really mad

Really mad about War

[upbeat copper]

your what character??? XD

[fallen sorrel]

I have learned to instead abbreviate this game as Fabult

I looked at it for a second and did think, surely... Maybe could have spared another second

[upbeat copper]

Ahhhh

lmao

[sharp steeple]

Oh here is stuff

Suffering design choices

[grim wigeon]

vaal hazak wings are always peak

[sharp steeple]

They are
But the ones without flesh covering them feel empty, and the flesh covered ones don't fit the lore

But they look cool

And they fit her backstory

And her struggles

Aaghdvdudhd

[sharp steeple]

Most lore accurate would probably be 1,2 or 4, from those I like the shape of 4 but it feels empty. 3 represents a facet of her where she put herself in the role of the irredemable monster who must put herself in please where she fears people to protect herself from being betrayed again, being this unlikable iron shell of her. I like the shape.
5. On the other hand uses a different take on her, that there is beauty in her, in the toned muscle underneath the shell, in the scars she suffered, in the determined gaze, in the amount of punishment she sustained, in the trained moves, that there is beauty in the way she loves like a chivalrous knight if one dares to dig and break the iron shell around her.

[sharp steeple]

We birbing it

I want the gayest option

[naive crystal]

Hello

I come here because I've been playing in a college DnD westmarch and I need to talk about the escapades of my human Fighter man

His first instinct is to run at whatever boss is currently on the field and swing at it until it dies

[clever salmon]

Nice

Truly they are a 5e Fighter

[upbeat copper]

ghey

[sharp steeple]

I think I have solely lesbians among my OCs

[high tendon]

awesome.

[upbeat copper]

I have one straight oc

She was trans

XD

[sharp steeple]

Actually no

i have one gay man

but I forget about him all the time

does he even still exist

perhaps somewhere on my hard drive

[jolly crest]

…which character are they, of the middle right one

[jolly crest]

we have like
one transhet char
she’s fun she’s neat. fat perpetually tired catgirl

Sabrinya! da one on the right

this transgender cat is Italian

[spiral granite]

What, no ace rep? :p

[sharp steeple]

I like writing personal drama based on romance and smut on the off time far too much

[spiral granite]

I was joking, but I will say that split attraction can be an excellent source of personal drama

[sharp steeple]

Ah

Sorry I am dense

I have realized that after a moment that it won't stop me from writing resentful revenge stabbing

Hmm

[spiral granite]

Or for smut purposes, sex-favorable aces exist :D

[sharp steeple]

I have to think more about this

[spiral granite]

(Or kink-but-no-sex favorable)

[sharp steeple]

I have been writing cowboy bounty hunter lady for upcoming star wars campaign so maybe I can fiddle with something in there

[spiral granite]

No pressure, TBH. Write whatever

I just took the serious answer as an excuse to talk about it seriously if you did want to write one

[sharp steeple]

Would be a new experience to try definitely

[sharp steeple]

No, you see, I took it as a challenge

[spiral granite]

Hee, nice

[sharp steeple]

Actually wait

I love actually looking into my bag of scrap because someone asked me about something

I have like 10 ocs with art so it's easily to mentally keep track of them

And then there is

The Document™

[spiral granite]

I totes understand

[sharp steeple]

There is this vampire lady that due to being a vampire can't quite perceive sexual attraction anymore. She knows when the blood is good, and she knows what it means to care about someone, but that spark isn't there anymore.
I didn't have anywhere to put her in yet and I still need to figure fashion and set on period and universe and backstory and...guh, why is it 6am and I have to about to go to work

The universe is conspiring against me

Time to spend quarter of my shift to figure this out like I spent quarter of yesterday trying to figure out wings for tiefie and I'm still not done

[upbeat copper]

hamster cheems

[jolly crest]

is that master chief

[upbeat copper]

ye lol

[naive crystal]

So far in his escapades he has:
Reduced a bandit leader from full HP to 20% in a single turn
Stuffed a siren into a Bag of Holding and waterboarded her with a vial full of infinite fresh water (she and her sibling now work at the casino at the party's base)
Soloed a sea witch while in the water with her (dodging kisses in the process)
Broke down a solid castle door with a crit greataxe swing and chased an evil elf woman down The Shining style
Critted the shit out of a Water Elemental before getting KO-ed by lightning
Critted the shit out of a wendigo before getting mauled.

He also got killed in the wendigo fight because some bozo decided to cast Bury while two party members were downed in the AoE, that same bozo got permanently possessed by the wendigo, and the last two members of that party got vaporized by lightning because the druid did a hail mary and cast Call Lightning in a thunderstorm

He got brought back to life and the wendigo was slain offscreen because the DM for that quest didn't have the chance to run a Part 2 in time

[zenith glacier]

When he’s stressed Donovan tries to learns new skills

He’s tried and failed to learn baking 5 times now

[sharp steeple]

Need to somehow pack more loser energy into this woman

[fallen sorrel]

Waffling on my decision to force my dmpc down my players' throats next session lmfao

Unfortunately I've already set them up so we'll just have to see how it plays out

[high tendon]

mhmm

I wanna do something with a knight and Gawain and the loathsome lady legend

[lavish dome]

"Grief is no purpose to live one's life by."
"It is no grief that animates me but pure and unbending hatred. If you should rend me to pieces, flay me to my barest of being, geld even the basest portions of me away and toss what remains into the darkest pits of the world, or the highest pillars of heaven, as long as he lives -as long as I know he lives. I will take what remains of me and drive it through his monstrous being."
I'm having a great time with a character of mine

[prisma sleet]

Woag am here now

[prisma sleet]

@tame crest @uncut gale

Quick explanation!

Pokemon TTRPG with a custom ruleset kinda based off Pokerole

Storywise a new Region has been discovered called Ponti, It's extremely dangerous with Giant sized Pokemon, a new Legendary that is also a new typing "Blood" (some Edge was allowed).

A city, called Crystalleon city, protected by big walls has been set up but its ended up pretty crime ridden due to how new it is, and the number of gangs that flocked to place.

However! A new type of gem was discovered in the region that can allow specific people to transform into Pokemon-like forms, Chimeras!

Enter the Pokemon Rangers, who have set up a new hq, and a program to recruit the Chimera Rangers, people who utilize the gems to bring some order and saftey to Crystalleon and to explore the new region.

Many of its members are former Criminals from groups such as team Rocket, Galactic, Plasma etc. They're either being rehabilitated or joined to do some good.

(Just on the side the events of every canon Pokemon game has happened at some point before this started)

Rooc in particular though is a refugee from Orre, as it is currently hitting the fan

She came to Ponti early on, and ended smashing her Face into a Furret Gem, embedding it into her head and permanently becoming a Furret Chimera

So now she has joined the Chimera Rangers and is doing what good she can while also being the fluffiest there is

[prisma sleet]

TLDR: Pokemon Rooc is basically

https://tenor.com/view/venom-snake-walk-mgsv-mgs-mgs5-gif-27690753

[upbeat copper]

Duran Duran blaring in the background

[zenith glacier]

I have made a new OC who’s idea I think is really funny, where she’s a young noblewoman named Constantina who was bodyguarded by one of my other OCs named Matilda.

Now during this time being a bodyguard, she basically spent the entire time insulting and belittling Matilda, ranting and raving. However due to these rants and insults she did eventually find something new about herself, and has now convinced herself that Matilda is the reason and that they bonded extremely closely the entire time they were together.

However, the problem is that Matilda fucking hates her because she basically spent an entire day doing nothing but being insulted by a haughty noble

So while Constantina (normally shorted to Tina) thinks they have this deep, beautiful relationship, Matilda just doesn’t like her, and she refuses to take the hint she’s not liked because she’s convinced herself that insults are just how they show their bond and affection for one another

Chat, rate my character's hat

[eternal prism]

10/10

[thin osprey]

did they have the hat before or after the scales

[jolly crest]

hi chat did you know that Ensio Virtanen :3

depressed Finnish coded Zato 1 knockoff villain in a dnd campaign I run

he has a living shadow named Tuoni Eats-Hearts and the situation is very gay and strange

oh and also Ensio is undead or at least adjacent I forget what I landed on

also also his canon outfit here would be da coat one

because he is associated w the Shadowfell which in my campaign’s setting makes you permanently deathly cold

the campaign takes place in a tropical country

so like

if u see someone in a fuckin winter coat you immediately know something is screwy

[clever salmon]

How do you guys feel about Scifi Characters inserted into Fantasy Worlds?

Like (my favorite topic naturally) Scifi Robots who end up in Fantasy Lands

Like not magical automatons or golems or anything, but genuine electricity and silicon robots

Asking because im playing with one of my older DnD concepts again, for a module called Odyssey of the Dragonlords

[thin osprey]

I feel like its one of those things where you have to ask if youre bending the character to fit into the setting or bending the setting to fit the character

Because the latter is always more difficult and can be a friction point

[clever salmon]

yeah it's definetly a context based thing

at least in my expirience

I generally lean towards the former

[eternal prism]

I'm a big fan of works with both sci-fi and fantasy elements, so this is great to me

[thin osprey]

Personally id be against it with the way you described it

Since I feel like it would clash more than add anything

[zenith glacier]

Also yah like, for this, are talking a robot that was just isekaied into forgotten realms or like, some kinda lost and forgotten tech?

Because those bring two very different vibes

And like, it doesn’t sound like you want them to be freshly made in forgotten realms

[eternal prism]

No I think that's compatible

[sharp steeple]

Like pathfinder androids?

[zenith glacier]

I mean yah but the way star described it, he said one that “ends up” in a fantasy land

So unless I’m mistaken and assuming it doesn’t sound like he wants it to be a new development in technological advancement

[naive crystal]

The Champion Fighter is starting to get to my head

He has become the gambling man

[simple shell]

I like their designs, especially Amellia (glad to see another HeroForge enthusiast here 😈 )

[modest lantern]

YEAH

thanks!!

note that she has 3 arms: Two prosthetic and one natural

[sharp steeple]

I need to give my girl Shielu a hat. I think she would look good with a hat.

I just can't decide if black+gold or blue+gold

[jolly crest]

hmmmmm
my instinct personally is black and gold

also art good

what’s this critter’s deal?

[sharp steeple]

Da artist is Rakhara104 on anc, but anc is fucking dead I think so idk

[sharp steeple]

Swashbuckler business. Fencing, doing triple backflips off of buildings onto riding horses, swinging through a window on the ripped courtain, flirting with women type deal

[wide skiff]

Female swashbucklers do tend to be popular among queer people

[sharp steeple]

In this case I liked the idea mechanically

Because it's a character spawned from tabletop

And I just don't like playing men too mucj

[fervent tendon]

I need to work on my swashbuckler character. Daughter of an influential noble family who went to prep school and came out having figured approximately three things out:

1. How to be an effective, if slightly mean and obnoxious manipulator and socialite
2. How to piss people off enough that they drop their guard and let you stab them
3. Surprisingly not-terrible politics.
   She also graduated with a homoerotic rivalry with a nerd who is her equal in dueling, and a job offer through the alumni network as a political operative for the Princess, who’s potentially in line for the throne.

[jolly crest]

oh my god

incredible

shoving her (affectionate)

[jolly crest]

swashbucklers r very fun, also. big fan

I have a tiefling swords bard/swashbuckler rogue named Grimhild Clay (she just goes by Clay 99% of the time)

absolute dorkass

deranged pathetic tgirl who is somehow the party’s de facto therapist

she once bisexual-sat on a table aboard a ghost ship and fell through it because she forgot it was rotting

in front of her crush

(they are now dating)

her <3

[modest lantern]

Her!!!

she's very pretty 👀

[jolly crest]

thankuuuuu

oh yeah, I never actually draw her as tall as she’s supposed to be

6’5” to be specific

which considering she grew up as a street urchin is fuckin impressive

she got the “size large to huge devil” genes

also one of my main visual pulls for her face is Claudia Black (played Aeryn Sun in Farscape)
I say face specifically bc uh. Clay has a -1 strength mod

oh Clay also spent a pretty absurd amount of money on buying a glamoured brigandine (lightly reflavored glamoured studded leather) for ✨ fashion ✨ at one point

bisexual disaster woman

I think this sums her up pretty well

goth. swashbuckler. noir detective. femme fatale. wine aunt. ex-cultist. she does it all

but one way or another……… she is a theatre kid

(as one might, yk, expect from a trickery cleric turned swords bard/swashbuckler rogue)

[jolly crest]

also: excellent.

[modest lantern]

YAHOO TALL LADY

[grim wigeon]

oh hell i never thought to do oc's likes/dislikes

i need to do that now

[modest lantern]

Well I can share for one of my OCs

uhh

Thorne!

Likes: Alcohol, their axe, their friends (tho they won't say it), incredible violence
Dislikes: Senseless incredible violence, aristocratic pompous pricks, their past, caramel candies

[grim wigeon]

ohoho

[modest lantern]

I like my drunken half-elf who occasionally becomes a giant :)

[sharp steeple]

I tried and I always fail

Anyway, Shielu is an elf/azata blooded aasimar/nephilim, and she is well. Somewhat good hearted, but not so well adjusted to work in society

[jolly crest]

yayyyyyyyyyyyyy

oh, Clay used to have a distaste for nobles as people in general
then she met a cute noblewoman

ok there’s a little more to it than that to be fair

namely, Paranelle, the noblewoman cleric in question, is an absolute sweetheart who in fact also suffered under the noble system because her dad is a fucking bastard

who tried to take over the country in a religious coup and got killed by the party as a result

look at Paranelle ok.

also Addie he is there too (bisexual polycule yayyyyyyyyyy)

[verbal rain]

I am reminded of myself.

[jolly crest]

not inaccurate

I rly enjoy this description one of my friends gave of Addie

himbo elf bard

[fervent tendon]

She needs a good shove or two at times. “Not terrible politics” does not translate to “can talk to non-nobles without supervision”

[verbal rain]

Poet in the classical sense or the Lord Byron sense?

[(click to see attachment)](#1356366183653310644 message)

[jolly crest]

uhhhhhhhhhh
clarify?

[jolly crest]

the crush in question was Paranelle btw, natch

I find it so deeply funny that Nell looked at Clay doing that and presumably just thought “wow. she’s adorable”

[fervent tendon]

Thankfully, the rest of the party can fill in for that.

[jolly crest]

oh dear

[jolly crest]

on the shoving, the supervision, or the ability to talk to ignobles without supervision?

I am guessing it is at least 2 of the 3

[fervent tendon]

I don't know exactly what connotations a classical poet has, but Byron was famous as a womanizer, partier, and exhausting and overdramatic.

[jolly crest]

let’s be fair, it wasn’t just women Byron -ized

[fervent tendon]

True, less familiar with that part though. I mostly know of him through his daughter, Ada Lovelace.

[verbal rain]

As opposed to a bit nerdy, decently sociable, but also quite repressed?

[jolly crest]

honestly Addie is neither of these things. I think Cass (not System at 63 Cassie lol) mostly meant it as like, he’s an artistic bard type

[verbal rain]

Mhm. Mhm.

faux hurt You mean to imply my sister isn't an artist?

To clarify, "Cassie" in reference to us means me and Amy.

[jolly crest]

gotch!

but yeah, in this case I was shrimply clarifying which Cass said the comment, not who it was about lol

[fervent tendon]

All 3 really. Rest of the party is:
Former military officer, specialized in scouting. She's technically nobility, but a month out in the field in a 5 person scouting team breaks class barriers really quickly.
Cleric/Guardian type, of the deity of love and art. Decent advice and source of reason, except when she forgets most people can't regrow limbs.
Rogue with a talent for alchemy. Grew up middle class, strong ties to radical political groups, but has a few weaknesses talking to people.
Mage, with a spirit sharing her head. Honestly the second worst for talking to non-nobles, between also being fairly high status, and the tendency for people to freak out when dealing with someone who occasionally gets possessed.

[verbal rain]

Wait, you have a Cass too? Or someone else here?

secondary fun fact!

do not date another deception cultist Jesus Christ Clay what is wrong with you

Morna “Morn” Ulcosque

Clay’s ex from before the campaign started. they had toxic yuri

this section of the Clay playlist (Claylist, if you will) is dedicated to how Clay saw things for a while there, before the two re-met during the campaign and wound up largely making up (tho they are not gonna restart that relationship lmao)

https://open.spotify.com/playlist/5oxhiFP7uxOSTEVPTeMEBG

I love Clay

nobody has this much Depeche Mode and Nine Inch Nails on their playlist without some combination of goth, kink, and religious trauma, and let none say that Clay does things halfway

[sharp steeple]

I need someone to push me into a locker like a nerd and tell me to make a wizard character, because I keep making handsome ladies by accident.

[verbal rain]

Why not handsome wizard lady? :3

Alternatively, extremely cute femmy wizard lady.

[sharp steeple]

I'm trying to have more variety in characters

Because I end up with oops all butch

[verbal rain]

Mhm.

[jolly crest]

<- normal about this concept

[sharp steeple]

Cowboy lady. Big brawler cat lady. Big trauma zheng pilot that does beat people up for hitting on her girlfriend. Mecha knight lady, the protector of her wife. Handsome bloodthirsty knight mess.There is also dog vampire thing, also tough and mean, in the works. Shielu is a prince and a scoundrel at the same time.

I need something soft and cute, but my brain might just be incapable.

[fervent tendon]

Hmm... for wizard maybe like... power suit business lady vibes?

[jolly crest]

oh god you’ve reminded me of a bastard character of mine but idk if she fits here bc she’s not a tabletop char

she did start out as one in theory but like
an unused one who got dramatically shifted when I changed her to be used in my original fiction setting instead

-# EVIL! FUCKING!! WIZARD!!!

her name is Amrun Geil
originally she was gonna be some combo of divination wizard, knowledge cleric, and GOOlock which… tbf she has basically stayed as just without the actual dnd mechanics

[modest lantern]

I need your help. I asked this elsewhere on pnet but I wanna hear it from y'all in the saloon

First session of this last night. Ha'aiz already has beef with another party member. One of our regulars who wasnt sure if he'd join the campaign showed up and played a stupid glup shitto who only spoke nonsense and had the worst build I've ever seen in an RPG but the employed insisted we bring. Good times.

[jolly crest]

one of the party is from the Feywild (which in this world is part of the physical plane), one of the commoners of such

This character is a servant of the Unseelie Court

I am aiming to make the 1 feywild character's player shit themselves on introduction

I have noticed the one commonality between all 6 characters

[upbeat copper]

Oh?

[thin osprey]

||Big Forhead||

[upbeat copper]

You bitch

[grim wigeon]

omg

[upbeat copper]

There is legitimately a sold throughline here and I thought you were about to get it you bastard

[thin osprey]

There's two then

[upbeat copper]

What sucks is I have no idea what class to make them

One option is bladesinger & blood hunter

another is fey wanderer ranger and blood hunter

[thin osprey]

Wouldn't a Warlock fit the best?

[upbeat copper]

We have an overabundance of Charisma characters in the party

[jolly crest]

thinking once more of. ya girl grimhild clay.

• Ashe (Thrilling Intent): Transfem healer with identity issues who veers wildly between “team mom who yells at her teammates for getting hurt,” “angry chihuahua who will stab the enemy in the vitals without remorse,” and “lonely brooder,” and eventually softens into a more anxious, kindhearted emotional heart of the group.
• Batman (Batman franchise, especially The Batman (2022)): Brooding detective and swashbuckler with a vengeful streak, a dark past, a tendency to be crazy-prepared, and fail qualities (that last part is why it’s Robert Pattinson Batman, in particular, on Clay’s list).
• Dorothea Arnault (Fire Emblem: Three Houses): Theatrical, incredibly bisexual, snarky mage with a distaste for stuck-up nobles.
• I-No (Guilty Gear): Depressed transgender femme fatale swag.
• Manuela Casagranda (Fire Emblem: Three Houses): Hot skrunkly wine aunt singer.
• Markus Velafi (Thrilling Intent): Flamboyant, musically-inclined, at times scheming tiefling mage who can be really smart but also really, really stupid.
• Yuri Leclerc (Fire Emblem: Three Houses): Bisexual goth swashbuckler with criminal ties and a ruthless streak, but also a sense of honor. Also, they literally both cast spells via finger guns. I had no idea Yuri did this when I decided that Clay should because I usually turn animations off for Fire Emblem games.

[upbeat copper]

clay is so funny to me. shes such a nightmare of a person i adore her

[upbeat copper]

also I've played like five billion of the fuckers

i did NOT pick up on why the gm asked me for a dex save

i was just

DRAGONLANCE BABY!!!!

[jolly crest]

think about her for me ok. thx <3

shes so silly

[upbeat copper]

Anyways the throughline of all these characters is the lie we often tell ourselves that we are serving a greater cause, and that in doing so we shackle our free will even more than we usually do

And the end of that path; accepting that fact, and being enlightened

[jolly crest]

and then theres clays partners
adorellan "addie" preslynn (he/him, elf bard) and paranelle "nell" demyra (she/her, human cleric)
nell is the one clay fell through the table in front of

idiot bisexual polycules are so important to me you have no idea

[jolly crest]

ooooooooo fun

[upbeat copper]

They're coming in a session after the party's suffered some serious losses and they're gonna be a typical fey dick about it

And hammer the point home by being the reason my old character is leaving

For reasons that are complex so I don't feel like explaining

[jolly crest]

hmmmmm
you can really tell how well clay is doing by the fact that shes got at least 2 songs apiece by the cure, depeche mode, frank iero, joy division, lebanon hanover, mountain goats, my chemical romance, and nine inch nails on her playlist

(its real bad chat)

[upbeat copper]

"You didn't tell them the purpose of the chains their lover died in. What would happen if you freed Clare before you freed him." the masked figure tilts their head, the trinkets bedecking their horns marking a discordant chime. you can tell they are smiling under their iron rictus, "So I took the liberty of telling them myself, naughty bird."

[jolly crest]

no mentally healthy character gets rotated to songs like these

[upbeat copper]

lol

[jolly crest]

(this is the religious issues part of her playlist)

[upbeat copper]

Wow I couldn't tell lol

[jolly crest]

right?

:3

but ya i like character playlists being like

musical versions of their character arcs

so clay's is like

1. urchin life
2. super cool and not at all unhealthy time as a worshiper of the goddess of deception, including toxic yuri with a fellow acolyte that she eventually ends for good
3. falling for paranelle while working as an adventurer and being all mopey about. everything
4. deciding that fuck leira actually
5. trying to slowly gain more confidence and autonomy and shit while also continuing to struggle with her issues

clays playlist really makes me squint at it and go "i know what you are" sometimes

shes such a mess of a woman

oh and this is the part of her playlist i like to call "damn you sure can tell this woman is cat coded"

i wanna be adored. leave me alone. its such a funny combo to me

[jolly crest]

yayyyyyyyyyyy fey dickery

[upbeat copper]

They're a hexblood if ur familiar

[sharp steeple]

Managed to pull together a reference sheet for the deer, now I gotta give myself time so I can get money so I can actually get her designed

I wonder if I should keep it at just images or add a text description too

[jolly crest]

I am! I have a hexblood witch char

tho the hags who made her are night hags, not standard fey hags

[upbeat copper]

Interesting!

Mine was transformed in a bargain with the Queen of Air and Darkness

[jolly crest]

ohoho fun

yeah this is Millie

I do sort of wish I’d picked between the horns and the garland thingie considering she also has the bigass ears, the wild hair, and the hat going on with her head region

but whatever

the important thing is this:

she is a silly billy

[upbeat copper]

lolol

[jolly crest]

she was made in a cauldron!

the fact that her backstory starts in such an insane place is always so funny to me

but yeah her mothers are a trio of night hag sisters, known as the Coven of the Cloven Hoof, who are the children of Cegilune the hag goddess and Cergaroth the archdevil, who was lethally deposed by his underling Helcaned
so the Coven decided to create a being who could perform a ritual to become a vessel for Cergaroth and thereby bring him back
and thus, 20 years ago, on a stormy night, atop a mountain and under a full moon, the Coven performed a ritual around a cauldron of 666 soul larvae, with an avatar of Cergaroth (he is dead, but can still exert influence :3) sending a bolt of lightning to kill 665 of them. Millie was the remaining one

she’s so normal

Alignment: Chaotic Good/Neutral
Deity/religion: Cergaroth (formerly), Selûne
Hobbies: Reading, writing poetry, singing, dancing, alchemy
Likes: Animals, bugs, learning, knowledge, power, violence, books, fire, sweets, nighttime
Dislikes: The Coven of the Cloven Hoof, fiends, nobles, traitors, stupid people, self-righteous people, bright sunlight

weird little freak <3

~~“dislikes: nobles, self-righteous people”

has a massive crush on a paladin noblewoman~~

Millie is characterized pretty largely by hypocrisy and emotional instability I won’t lie

[uncut gale]

we regret to inform you all im making a shadowrunner

[eternal prism]

let's goooooo

[clever salmon]

Nice

What are they, exactly?

Not very familiar with shadowrun

Beyond the basics at least

[uncut gale]

Great question. So far she’s an elf with cosmetic horns who was born Pink. Her parents, being human elf-posers, treated her like a rare labubu. This has lead to her fucking off to Seattle to sleep in a flophouse in cap hill and kill people for money

Shadowrun is both good and bad. The poison is strong

love u bubblegum. u will kill many security guards

[upbeat copper]

Is she a mage of some description?

[uncut gale]

[upbeat copper]

Ahhhh, sense making

[zenith glacier]

Chatroom, this is a weird question, but what do y’all think is the best feminine/neutral name for saying in like, a lament

I’m making a character who talks about their dead wife a lot and I want something that sounds good for them to monologue with

[fervent tendon]

Lenore is a classic. (The Raven.) In general, I think you want something decently poetic. Can’t be more specific though.

[fallen fulcrum]

I was gonna suggest Lenore, Desdemona, or maybe Ophelia, yeah

Can't go wrong with the classics

(though Ophelia was never married technically, she's still iconic)

[fervent tendon]

I've got an OC named Ophelia, but she's a criminal mastermind and expert thief as part of a minor branch of a crime family (connected enough to have contacts and a name worth some weight, distant enough that she's running her own small crew), a bad leg due to injuries in a war, and is over 40.

[fallen fulcrum]

Though depending on how your character's wife died, Desdemona may be an inappropriate reference (Othello spoilers, idk if I need to spoiler tag for a Shakespeare play but I will just in case) ||(she was killed by her husband)||

[fervent tendon]

God I love Othello, but yeah, it's a bit of a sketchy reference.

But yeah, you probably want something mildly old fashioned/lengthy for poetic qualities.

[fervent tendon]

Her wife's also great. Local fence and magical collector/tinkerer. Relatively little raw magical talent, but good at making magic items, slower ritual work, and messing with other people's magic. Also at having just about any random item.

[fallen fulcrum]

Hell yeah hell yeah

[zenith glacier]

Hmm, yah I really like Ophelia

[fervent tendon]

I modeled the team roughly after Leverage, though with different dynamics - Ophelia is the Mastermind, the wife (I am terrible with names, most of my OCs that I've had for years still don't have them) is the "hacker".

For the rest of the team, the muscle is a pit fighter with some... unusual gifts (she has very nasty iron nails and teeth, strength, and fast healing), the grifter is a young ingenue who people really shouldn't trust as easily as they do, and the thief is an Indiana Jones/Laura Croft style "archaeologist" who decided to turn their skills at retrieving cursed artifacts from deathtraps into safe-cracking and burgalry.

[worthy siren]

oh these are all cute as hell

[uncut gale]

do you understand why im kind of obsessed with her

[worthy siren]

yes, we do believe this has been detailed to us to some extent
but also yayyy cute outfits

[uncut gale]

she's 5'4". she's one of the finest swordsmen in the greater seattle metroplex. she is addicted to a drug that gives her bullet time. every piece of math she learned was from mafia bookies.

[sharp steeple]

It might be the catholic conditioning in me, but Maria is a good name for that.

[uncut gale]

yaaaay cute little fits

[worthy siren]

it's true

[worthy siren]

tbf if we had a drug that gave us bullet time we'd probably be seeking that out regularly too

[uncut gale]

i love her so much

[worthy siren]

a bubblegum for every outfit below the sun (and some above)

[uncut gale]

i legitimately did spend a lot of her starting money on fashion

shadowrun is a stupid game and i love it.

[worthy siren]

that's a lot of cheap pants cheap shirt- why are

why are the skirts and shirts alternating

[uncut gale]

bc that's how i added them to the list

bc. you have to individually add each item and i was searching the quality rather than the item to get what i needed

[worthy siren]

waow

one pair of good shoes

[uncut gale]

and her Kicks

[worthy siren]

and one pair of great shoes

[uncut gale]

her sword is also very funny please enjoy MURDER-MASA, THE 467th DEMON BLADE OF THE PACIFIC NORTHWEST

love to have an attack value of 18d6

[worthy siren]

murder-masa...

is, 18d6 a lot in shadowrun

[uncut gale]

yah~!

this is the thing i built her to do Really Well out of chargen because playing a PhysAd or Street Sammy is about maximizing your violence early and rounding out your skills as you go

i think what shadowrun usually claims is that a dicepool of 6 is somebody Pretty Good At Something (3 Stat + 3 Skill)

[worthy siren]

we see...

[uncut gale]

Whereas bubblegum's math on murdermasa is uh

so she's only got 15d6 for literally Any Other Sword

[worthy siren]

hm...

the sword seems to not be doing as much of the work here

we have no context for shadowrun numbers though again

[worthy siren]

mall ninja getup... /pos

[uncut gale]

this is true

[zenith glacier]

Fun fact, I was gonna go with Maria, but then I remembered 5/6th of my group are sonic fans

And uhh, having a character monologue about a dead “Maria” will not end well

[high tendon]

a cloak for the jacket

Helena is infesting my brain a little bit, of late

she’s gonna be my PC for a duo game w my girlfriend Sophie, run by her dad Dan

we did a duo game before with that setup and had a lot of fun but dropped off it
but we wanna start up a new game rather than reviving that one (at least, yet) cos it’s been so long

oh yes also

[jolly crest]

and, #1 here is intended as a cartoony “here’s what the overall silhouette/shape language should be” sorta deal

I’m deliberately making her a very straightforward character, rather than the more “high concept” route I often go, because I think that

1. having fewer possible directions to go in is good when starting Pathfinder (based on my past attempts at making even characters for PF2e, which iirc is more streamlined than 1e, having repeatedly gone screwy due to decision paralysis)
2. it’ll be a good way to get back into the headspace to play RPGs with this group again

[jolly crest]

also

^ I learned right after saying this that rounders is a real life game in the UK that turned into what is usually called baseball nowadays
because it was originally called baseball, and kept the name outside the UK, but the gameplay morphed
whereas in the UK the gameplay stayed (largely?) the same but the name changed

but yeah it’s making me picture this fucking dork in, like, a baseball cap

[jolly crest]

I have decided that, yes, she fucking loves baseball

[uncut gale]

hello everyone. a bubblegum

[topaz narwhal]

Making a character who flies a magical flying vehicle in a war in the afterlife. Do i make her and her entire company dinosaurs because this setting is very explicit about that being a thing

[clever salmon]

What game?

Does sound like a cool idea though yeah

Dinosaurs are fun

[topaz narwhal]

Armor Astir Advent. The setting is one of the ones listed in the book

[sharp steeple]

Sounds metal as fuck

do it

[fallen fulcrum]

Do it do it do it

I am utterly unbiased (<- has a dinosaur fursona)

[topaz narwhal]

im wondering what kind of dinosaur

[jolly crest]

she has a lucky rounders bat

[topaz narwhal]

im having a struggle with making this character cause I can't really find a concept Im attached to

[fallen fulcrum]

Finding a concept you like can be hard, oof. That's definitely the first step to nail down before deciding other stuff.

As far as dinos go though: Theropods and especially dromaeosaurids are a classic of course, but I have a fondness for hadrosaurs (parasaurolophus and iguanodon in particular) too. Could get real funky with it and do a ceratopsid. Or even something that isn't strictly a dinosaur, like a pterosaur of some sort. Those are fun.

Ooh or you could get real funny and squeeze a sauropod into a mech

[jolly crest]

chat!
I have decided Helena’s full name is Helena Agnes Nikoletta Drake

Nikoletta is in reference to an old (ie, middle school) angelic paladin character concept of mine named Cole, later to be redefined as an aasimar/nephil paladin named Nicholas

[sharp steeple]

If you turn her names into acronym it is HAND.
Just a small observation

[jolly crest]

LMAO???

I did not do this on purpose

[jolly crest]

I have decided that she’s scared of the dark

GM asked us to think about our PCs’ fears and I couldn’t think of anything “serious” for Helena

she’s too clueless to have really developed Adult Fears™ yet
