YO ANYONE DOWN FOR DND ON NON-STREAM NIGHTS?

[spice bobcat]

we playing our normal time with jeans in the bg yeah?

[umbral osprey]

yep

[proud pebble]

yes

[umbral osprey]

should be the last session granted it goes well but knowing us we're all gonna die horribly

[spice bobcat]

dunno if she starting early again or not, will have to ask I guess

[proud pebble]

2nd to last session

[umbral osprey]

not if we TPK

[spice bobcat]

that counting one shot if we live?

[proud pebble]

I think I'm gonna save the one-shot for another time
It's kinda poorly written so I need to redo a lot of it

[spice bobcat]

aight den

thx for your hard work sir

[proud pebble]

doing my best

[spice bobcat]

long as you're enjoying yourself too

[umbral osprey]

at the rate my mental health is going i will barely make it to tmr not to mention the one shot

[proud pebble]

the one shot would be a while away

[umbral osprey]

if i dont make it that far then xan died on his crusade

[proud pebble]

[pastel idol]

be nicer to yourself

[proud pebble]

you should do it or Aizo will be sad

[umbral osprey]

hard to when the world seems to love reminding me of how terrible i am at everything

[pastel idol]

for ever thing that falsely remind you of that, I will remind you how much you are cared for

[umbral osprey]

you're way too nice to me truly a saint

[ancient sun]

Relatable

[violet cave]

are we still donw for today, or we gonna balding gay 3

[proud pebble]

we still going toay

see y'all in an hour or so

[pastel idol]

[umbral osprey]

i wonder would D&D be easier or harder if every roll was max roll enemies included

[proud pebble]

makes martial classes a lot sronger

[umbral osprey]

and most aoe spells alot weaker

so big numbers of weak enemies are actually a threat

[proud pebble]

most spells you mean

a majority of spells have a save attached

[umbral osprey]

i mean all spells with attack rolls will auto crit

so those get way better

[proud pebble]

yes but the control spells are stronger in general

[umbral osprey]

fair enough

[proud pebble]

also counterspell makes spell casting kinda irrelevant

[umbral osprey]

either way the question is who would get more out of it the players or the DM

[proud pebble]

auto stops any spell you want

oh the DM

[pastel idol]

spell attacks are usually cantrips- slotted spells typically require saves
so only cantrips for casters would get stronger

[proud pebble]

we got access to stuff that you can only dream of

Guiding Bolt becomes an insane one-shot ability

[umbral osprey]

anything with multiattack becomes horrfic to fight

[proud pebble]

that's what I'm saying

[umbral osprey]

paladins oneshot anything that moves

[pastel idol]

I'm just glad we won't ever fight my favourite DnD enemy

that thing is horribad to fight unless you're built against it

[umbral osprey]

what is it?

[proud pebble]

we already fought against most of my favourite stuff

[pastel idol]

they're called "Aboleth"

basically cthulhu underwater squids

there's a mtg card with a spawn of them

[proud pebble]

Oh, you could have fought that in this campaign

[umbral osprey]

you may or may not get to see one of those in justin's game

so IT WAS AN ABOLETH

[pastel idol]

WHAT?!

[proud pebble]

it was in the underground lake

[umbral osprey]

yep its the thing i talked to

i had my suspicion

[pastel idol]

instant tpk if we fought

yikes

[proud pebble]

at that stage, probably yes

[pastel idol]

I know they do like, water curses that makes characters "need" water, or simply die

[umbral osprey]

my fav enemy will probably never be in any of our campaigns unless we REALLY piss off a DM

[pastel idol]

and permanently dominates you as well

[proud pebble]

which is?

[umbral osprey]

"false hydra"

[proud pebble]

purely out of academic interest

and not so I can put it in the next campaign

[umbral osprey]

cannon getting ideas for the next game

[proud pebble]

I would never

[neat dust]

forgets the dm

[pastel idol]

notes drakes fear, because my new character's favourite spell is "phantasmal killer"
that manifests your deepest fear to take you on and hunt you

[proud pebble]

well my internet is being ass again but hopefully we'll be ok for session

[umbral osprey]

this is why

https://www.worldanvil.com/block/1309070

[pastel idol]

my eldritch cleric's favourite spell

[proud pebble]

stright up, my internet is better through my VPN to the same country I'm in then normally

[pastel idol]

won't have access to it before 7th level though

[neat dust]

depending on what counts here several funny things could happen

of any phobia applies

u cast it and someone with the fear of love just gets loved

someone with fear of hiccups just starts hiccuping

[pastel idol]

it's not about phobias or "fear of"
it manifests whatever you fear the most among everything
concept or not

[proud pebble]

oh wow, it's Val's mum

[umbral osprey]

i mean for me irl it would just be a med needle

[neat dust]

i don't think she would be there but maybe

ah i know what i fear

[proud pebble]

ANYWAY

10 MINUTES TO GO

[neat dust]

helplesness

[proud pebble]

[umbral osprey]

t-10 until tpk LUL

[proud pebble]

shush you

[pastel idol]

so year as I said, my eldritch cleric is not a nice person

though she'll masquerade as being so

[umbral osprey]

my zeal paladin will be openly a dick

[proud pebble]

that's different from normal?

[umbral osprey]

if you break any rules he'll fuck you up and even if you dont he might make up new rules to fuck you up regardless

[proud pebble]

Drake gonna speed run breaking his oath I see

[umbral osprey]

hey i've played 2 good chars now i get 2 evil chars with this being the 2nd one

[pastel idol]

it likely won't be something simple as an object, even if you fear needles-
to a lot of peepos, it'd likely be something like total isolation, those you trust the most betraying you
or watching loved ones being tortured while you can do nothing to help

stuff like that

[umbral osprey]

a needle to me would be way scarier than any of that ngl

[pastel idol]

so you say

[umbral osprey]

i yearn for total isolation , and i've been betrayed alot

[pastel idol]

redemption paladins before level 7

[pastel idol]

you think you do

[neat dust]

isolation i would be fine with betrayal i already fear but lucky for me i haven't let anyone get close enough to be able to do that

[umbral osprey]

nah if anything not doing that would break my oath

[pastel idol]

redemption paladins' only trait before 7 is their channel divinity that they can use once per rest
and as a redemption paladin, you break your oath immediately if you harm something(that isn't with channel divinity)
that you aren't 110% sure cannot be redeemed

only after 7th level, do you get the "aura of the guardian" which embodies what the redemption paladins are

[proud pebble]

Making up new rules just to punish people who broke them is textbook corruption

[pastel idol]

so if I want to play redemption paladin, she'd have to be a later insert when close to 7, or after 7

[neat dust]

i'm 100% sure he can't be redeemed what do u think? looks to man besides him yeah no i doubt it. and thats the 10% i needed smites

[umbral osprey]

not if i suspect they're heritical "by any means neccesary"

[proud pebble]

that may be your interpritation but unfortunetly for you I'm the dm

[pastel idol]

[proud pebble]

<@&1248006648744902809> IT'S GO TIME PEOPLE, FINAL BATTLE TIME

[neat dust]

https://tenor.com/view/boss-gif-19023332

[proud pebble]

@violet cave 🫵

[burnt sorrel]

@pastel idol btw I had a power cut about 15mins ago. Not sure if Adam is in chat but I'm currently not. (And only just got cell signal -_-)

[pastel idol]

took out a bot from one of the other's chat

[burnt sorrel]

Nice 👍

Yeah there's a damn thunderstorm the first thunder immediately killed out power xD

I'm now sat I'm my room with a phone light in the dark

[spice bobcat]

i abstain since seems pointless but will vote yes to tie break

[pastel idol]

my eldritch cleric is more physically vulnerable than I'm used to when making characters
but she's somewhat potent against spell casters

[spice bobcat]

grim hollow the next setting? i haven't been keeping up with chat

[proud pebble]

Possibly

but either way, the Grim Hollow material is avalible for character creation

[spice bobcat]

ah so you still developing things?

told jeans we tpk'd LUL she was like "saw it was hard hope y'all survived" and i was like ummmmm

[proud pebble]

lmao

stuff is mostly ready

just gonna ask each group what kind of thing they want to do again

[spice bobcat]

ahhh i gotcha. she's excited for the summary. i didn't explain what happened other than basically powerful god beat down

[proud pebble]

was this on stream? cause I wanna see that

[spice bobcat]

nah i had talked about us getting waxed in chat near end of stream and she noticed. was chatting with her just now so she brought it up

[proud pebble]

ahh gotcha

well I'm glad shes excited because I have no clue how I'm putting this summery together XD

[spice bobcat]

she'll enjoy the last minute ceremony i think LUL

if you strugglin tho i would storyboard it

makes it much easier to format and you can hit it like that

make key moments a board panel and see how many and trim if needed or add even

[proud pebble]

yeah, gonna need to remember key moments and put the minis back in place so I can take a picture

[spice bobcat]

i imagine it'd be okay to do a longer one for something like this as well

[proud pebble]

so I'm still to do from session 42(?) onwards, we had quite a few short sessions with short summeries

I could probably do all the remaining sessions but it would probably take it up to around 10 minutes

[spice bobcat]

i would merge some of those short ones and drop it separately from the final

we can just let her know to watch the final last

[proud pebble]

well the normal length is 6 to 7 mins
and time wise that would be up to around the second to last session

[spice bobcat]

i just asked her if she minds if if you go longer but she may be afk. will let you know

[proud pebble]

kewl

whole point of the vids was to make the summeries shorter XD

[spice bobcat]

well the final one is special

[proud pebble]

and I'm not keen on makign multiple posts and saying "watch this one first/second" because that just feels like I might as well have just made one long post

[spice bobcat]

and she really enjoys them

[proud pebble]

I know, but I am trying to be respectful of everyone

[spice bobcat]

ofc

she went offline so when she sees it i'll just dm ya

[proud pebble]

noice

only reason I'm thinking about it tbh
is because it also seems silly to wait another month to do a summery for like 2 sessions

[pastel idol]

it's not pointless, we get to play together more

[pastel idol]

I miss our little monday sessions already

[umbral osprey]

there is always going to be a next game until we all wither into dust

[proud pebble]

there will be a next game until I get annoyed with you lot and stop

[pastel idol]

I wanted to play more with everyone

it was fun, even when it was tough

[spice bobcat]

you'll be joining the next game will you not aizo?

[proud pebble]

yee

finalizing the party comps now

then I gonna nap

then I announce tomorrow XD

[neat dust]

https://tenor.com/view/tease-naughty-boy-gif-15178294

[proud pebble]

considers banning Val just for that

[neat dust]

https://tenor.com/view/jahy-sama-jahy-cute-anime-crying-gif-22535532

mercy

[pastel idol]

sorry for being weird, I care about the most random of things

[umbral osprey]

you aint wierd

[pastel idol]

feels like when it's end of school, and you have to say goodbye to the class

[umbral osprey]

i am wierd

[proud pebble]

nah, it's all good Aiz
makes you, you

[pastel idol]

also I get emotional when I'm tired

[umbral osprey]

again , hope you had a nice flight

[neat dust]

it's understandable

[proud pebble]

get some rest
you've more then earned it

[pastel idol]

I couldn't protect you all during the acererak fight

[neat dust]

a fun thing has ended and it's time for a new adventure

[pastel idol]

[spice bobcat]

no one said you were weird aizo, far from it

[umbral osprey]

hey no blaming yourself

[spice bobcat]

and yes no blaming

[neat dust]

just to make sure it is 3 hours before stream not 4 right?

[umbral osprey]

yes

[neat dust]

good good

[proud pebble]

well 3.5hrs

[neat dust]

4 hours and there could be tuesdays where i would be more then an hour late

[proud pebble]

oh ignore me I dumb

[neat dust]

https://tenor.com/view/dumb-frog-hammer-gif-11207593

i fix

[spice bobcat]

i was disappointed i couldn't avenge my wife tbh

[neat dust]

atleast u died trying thats worth something

[pastel idol]

I didn't even get to use my remaining channel divinity in the fight
since I needed to use my action for dash to get in range at all

[neat dust]

wait u were the redemption paladin in this campaign?

[pastel idol]

I was dealing with the dnd stream not working at the time so it slipped my mind
but before I enter dreamland, I wanted to share my plan for xopah when acererak hit her with the powerword kill:

As the word of power leaves Acererak, Xopah flinches as her grasp on life begins fading
she falls to her knees, eyes glazing over, shield dropping into the lava.. just then, her divinity flares, her work isn't done
tiny motes of green begins floating off her body, the same green the party has seen when she
cast her spells so many times before-- her eyes flare a burning green divine fire, as she stares Acererak down
reaching her hand towards him, seared in her own sacred flame, but finding no purchase as she can barely discern who is who anymore
.
.
then, a familiar voice enters her mind after having been cut off for so long: "you have struggled enough, little one. no more pain, no more tears, it is time to rest"
Xopah let's out a gasp as her life ebs, she looks towards darvin a final time, and as her eyes closes, a single tear trickles down her cheek..
and then her body fades, Ilmater having brought her to his side

just flavour really, but wanted to share it anyway

[pastel idol]

no, tortle life cleric

[neat dust]

when i looked at the different clerics i liked life cleric cuz i thought it would make a good healer to support the party

just tell the party to go ham and i'll focus on trying to keep them alive

when i looked at ranger i liked beast master and drake warden cuz companions

drakewarden cuz dragon stuff is cool

i think i stoped at wizard cuz i was tired and i couldn't decide what i liked for a wizard class

i should have noted down all the classes i wanted to make

[umbral osprey]

you're a really good writer aiz

[neat dust]

what do u guys find the most enjoyment out of between the idea of the char, the story or the gameplay?

with my monk i think it's the idea i like the most atleast atm

for my rouge it's the gameplay

[umbral osprey]

i build for gameplay first story second

[neat dust]

thats what my rouge and i guess kinda my monk is as well

more so my rogue since it was completely new to me i just wanted to have fun playing

for my monk it's just the idea of "sad reaper" which i really like and i'v not thought much about a story for him nor thought of gameplay

i wanna make a devotion paladin since i feel i can easily stick by the oath

[crude pelican]

So

I can make a Snake race character

What kinda magic do we got?

[neat dust]

https://dnd5e.wikidot.com/#toc19

[crude pelican]

Or do I wanna make him a fighter instead? The thought of a Men sized Snake slithering towards you with his swords inhand does make a cool image

[neat dust]

u can look through this page for races, classes and anything else really

what spells u get depends on ur class mostly but i think some races gives u access to some spells

[crude pelican]

I know what I want

The Snake race

And blood magic

Yuan-Ti

[neat dust]

blood magic?

so a blood hunter?

[crude pelican]

There was Wizard class with Blood Magic

[neat dust]

there isn't a race specifc class i think

all races can be all classes

[crude pelican]

It was under the Homebrew subclasses

[neat dust]

i'v not fully learned the different spells and such but i think hemocraft would be whats refered to as blood magic in dnd

[crude pelican]

Yea Hemomancy is blood magic

[neat dust]

oh no homebrew stuff unless u ask dm and he allows it

so only base dnd stuff and i think it was grim hollow?

[crude pelican]

Oh

Found it on the page there so I thought it goes

[neat dust]

yes maybe i should have specified that sorry >.<

but yeah u want anything homebrew ur gonna have to ask dm

but i think it's best to try and stick with base stuff

if ur wondering about anything with making ur char feel free to ask here

not that i will be much help

but the others seem to know what they are doing

[pastel idol]

@proud pebble were we doing transformations? one of the ways to advance abberant horror, is apparantly
to fulfil eldritch prophecies, which would fit so well with my character

also one of the flaws "hideous appearance" basically says I have eyes all over my body
which is fun, and could be a reason why I cover up

[proud pebble]

we're going to avoid them mostly
if something happens that I feel warrents a character beginning a transformation then I'll allow it

[proud pebble]

only official stuff and Grim Hollow stuff please
however, you'll be pleased to know that Grim Hollow does have Sangromancy aka blood magic
Yuan-ti aren't in the setting however so please pick a different race, Lizardman or Dragonborn would be ok however

[crude pelican]

Oh damnit

Was thinging about bladesinger Yuan-Ti too but if no cool snake people I'll change

[proud pebble]

btw I don't want to be here rn peeps so I'm muting for a few days, don't message me, don't ping me, seriously fuck off for a bit

[crude pelican]

Quietly fucks off

[neat dust]

if u guys wanted to make a troll chars how would u make them?

not looking for suggestions just curious

like idea is to be kinda idk chaotic?

[umbral osprey]

i have a 1 int wizard which i was going to basically roll on all his spells known every time i cast anything

[neat dust]

forgot which one but one of the chars aizo showed me had a spell or ability which she rolled a d8 and got 1 of 8 different effects i think

[umbral osprey]

chaos bolt probably

[neat dust]

i thought what if u had a char with a bunch of that kinda stuff even for non combat

[umbral osprey]

unfortunatly there isnt enough of it so you'd have to homebrew quite a bit

[neat dust]

ah i see

[umbral osprey]

you could also just play a wild magic sorc which is designed to be chaotic of the bat

[neat dust]

oh btw i saw ranger has drakewarden

wouldn't that have been perfect for sparks who wanna be a dragon?

[neat dust]

i am interested

[umbral osprey]

nah i have a more specfic build for spark and how he's going to "evolve"

[neat dust]

i'm curious to see how things play out

lets just hope he survives long enough

[umbral osprey]

so wild magic sorc every time it casts a spell with a spellslot has to roll a d20 , if they roll a 1 , they have to roll on a table of 100 effects , and you get one of them , one of them is turn yourself into a potted plant , one is make yourself younger , etc

and if you dont roll a one , next time you have to roll above a 2

then 3

and so on

until you fail

which resets it back to one

https://dnd5e.wikidot.com/sorcerer:wild-magic
this has all the effects if you're interested

[neat dust]

sounds fun

oh i was already looking at the page just hadn't gotten down to the effects yet

i was wondering what i would do for sorc but now i think i want wild magic

hmm i wonder what i wanna do for warlock

atm i wanna make a char for every class and with the exception of my assassin i think i wanna try and make sure they are all different races as well

assassin i think i might go tabaxi on again

hmm for warlock i think i want either hexblade or undying

chronurgy magic wizard

m31 is an artificer?

besides my monk and rouges i'm not sure who i'm more excited about

my paladin or my barbarian

paladin is a simple oath of devotion

just thought it would be fun

[crude pelican]

Oof

So

Anyone here on Elder Scrolls lore too?

[neat dust]

but barbarian is either berserker cuz violence and rage

[neat dust]

think most people here know atleast a little bit of it

[neat dust]

oh and the path of the primal spirit

[crude pelican]

Argonian

Who is closer to it

Dragonborns or Lizard Men?

[neat dust]

https://tenor.com/view/god-of-war-ragnarok-kratos-atreus-gif-27146714

i want this but maybe with giant wolf instead

[neat dust]

good question

i'll have a look

[crude pelican]

Since no cool snake people I will probably go on an classic Lizard Wizard then

[neat dust]

i think lizardfolk fits an argonian more

[crude pelican]

Then that probably is it

No hemomancy either so classic Wizardry

[neat dust]

grim hollow stuff is allowed which does have sangromancy aka blood magic

https://grimhollow.fandom.com/wiki/Wizard:_School_of_Sangromancy

this

[pastel idol]

Rhea or Rhia?

I can't decide on a name

or maybe Riah/Reah

[neat dust]

If u remember u could ask again on saturday when u can hear how we end up saying it

[pastel idol]

is justin not playing in the new campaigns?

I should have cheered on cu113n more, when he stood bravely fighting for everything at the end of the world

[crude pelican]

Why do the voices in my head tell me to say the quote?

Oh whatever

"My what lovely feet"

https://tenor.com/view/monoco-expedition33-clairobscurexpedition33-clair-obscur-gif-13003444788390410154

[violet cave]

not playing, no. i'm in way too many campaigns and given the scope of Kavinor, I'm going to fuel my energy into making that be a good experience for everyone

[crude pelican]

Ok

Lizardfolk and sangromancy it would be if it's allowed

[neat dust]

It is i think

[pastel idol]

cannon's campaign was a lot of fun wasn't it? lots of fun moments
we got through, epic battles we fought together

[crude pelican]

Yea like that one time where you guys did that thing and then countered the enemies thing with that super cool thing

[pastel idol]

xopah, xan, cu113n, darvin, hanvur, and volgos
all immortalized in the end

and those that were lost along the way

[ancient sun]

I was dead

Alot

[violet cave]

I like the different energy we have with Cannon's and mine. The former is dungeon puzzle solving and combat heavy, the latter is spy and intrigue

[pastel idol]

different notions

[pastel idol]

is also why I wanted an inventor type character in your campaign, even though she doubles as a bodyguard

[sudden frost]

Wait... I thought energy was just Joules.

[pastel idol]

even xopah died in the end versus acererak- I got a single turn against him where I had
to reposition with the dash action, and that was all she managed in that fight

is simply how dnd be

I wonder how much damage my aura prevented added together

would be fun to calculate

[neat dust]

i will be a little late on saturday

work ends when we start so i'll try to rush home hopefully won't be more then 30min

[ancient sun]

Im fucking freaking out over the fact that im playing in my new apartment that day

Bro i have a roommate

Thank fuck its my best friend

But still, bro is gonna be like "wtf is going on"

[pastel idol]

easy solution

have them join us

[ancient sun]

English 101 wasnt comprehended to a degree of understanding our dnd group requires for my bro

Also he isnt into DnD...

Any time i mention it he's like "Why u playing that"

[neat dust]

Wait do u actualy share a room?

U don't have ur own like bed rooms?

[ancient sun]

Dont worry, its a "cell" or whatever it is in english

One common space

and both of us have seperate rooms with a door that has a lock

[neat dust]

Good good

Will be combat this time

[ancient sun]

Noice

[neat dust]

Oh and u have leveled ur char to 5 yes?

[ancient sun]

I have

Justin has the lvl 5 sheet too

Sent it to him amidst the chaos last saturday

[neat dust]

Wait are we suposed to send it to him?

[ancient sun]

No, but i sent cuz i wasnt able to join last time

So he had my stats, spells and such at his disposal

Also my old desk didnt fit properly so i have my pc on the floor until like saturday since my dad is buying me a new desk tomorrow

[neat dust]

nice

how is it living in ur new apartment?

[ancient sun]

Uhh... Stressful

I dont like having to plan food

Cant wait till semesetr starts so i get one meal for 2.50€ per day without having to plan ahead

[neat dust]

yes planning what to eat can be hard

u will get used to it and find idk stuff that works for u and things will become less stressfull

[ancient sun]

https://tenor.com/view/monka-cross-gif-4035178244594551512

Hope.exe is fading

[neat dust]

for now take it slow 1 day at a time and have fun with ur friend

[ancient sun]

Gaming

[violet cave]

<@&1284336728831950879> we're postponing the session to next Saturday since I have to be away for an event, but remember, it's going to be the fight in the inn against several drow. You have 3 NPCs (Jubal Clovis and Karron) and traps that have been rigged

.......this is D&D rainbow six siege.

[pastel idol]

but also

hope you had fun at the event

[violet cave]

Listen this will be extra prep time for me too, you guys (defenders) are a combined team of 8 with a CR of 5

[pastel idol]

I can't wait

dnd is so much fun

[violet cave]

The number itself may be a little scuffed but the point is, I need to make it both stressful and winnable

[pastel idol]

thank you for all that you do

[violet cave]

@proud pebble I mean I AM tempted

[ancient sun]

dew it

[burnt sorrel]

yo thats actually like MSRP almost maybe

[neat dust]

i guess more time to play BF6 in the weekend

[violet cave]

I mean it's a golden catgirl card

But it's also very funny if I pair her with idk, Nethroi Apex of Death and necropanther

[signal locust]

Rhea Ripley

[neat dust]

oh ancal u joining any of the new campaigns?

[signal locust]

wish i had the time

well

[neat dust]

it's 3 hours before stream on tuesday or sunday

is ok if u can't ofc

idk if cannon even has more room

[neat dust]

oh little question i have

if i want a gloomstalker and i wanna start as rogue i need to multiclass right?

[umbral osprey]

yes

because gloomstalker is ranger

[neat dust]

and to be able to do that i need to meet the stat requierments for ranger but what if i roll for my chars stats and i don't?

[umbral osprey]

then you cant

[neat dust]

can i just figurativly rip my sheet apart and do it again?

[umbral osprey]

depends on the DM if they let you re roll

[neat dust]

or i could roll for 20 sheets and pick the one that fits

roll first assign class after

basicaly wondering how i can deal with the issue of wanting a specific class for my char in the event i don't get the requiered stats

do make a new char?

stuff the first one in a box for if the one i wanted dies?

give it to the dm so he can kill me with it?

[violet cave]

pray he's a gracious god and introduces a magic encounter that alters your base stats

[neat dust]

like atm i'm tempted to make a char for every class which is fine with everyone other then the gloomstaler cuz that one i specificaly want as a rogue into ranger

now i could get lucky get the stats i need first time around and this whole convo wasn't needed but when it's specificaly what i want how do i deal with that without cheating

oh dex and wisdom higher then 13 shouldn't be to hard

i would have to roll really poorly to not get atleast 2 stats above 13 right?

[violet cave]

poorly, but never impossiblle

[neat dust]

true

i haven't even fully thought out what i want with this char

i just really wanted umbral sight

dread ambusher is also good

to get the gloomstalker i want i need to be lv.4 right?

1 level rouge 3 ranger?

or wait do i have to be level 3 to multiclass

[violet cave]

you can multiclass right off the bat

me? I prefer to monoclass, i get all the goodies of a single class without any headache

[neat dust]

wait i can?

i can as u give the permission to or i can as in the rules says i can?

[violet cave]

the rules say so

[neat dust]

also the gloomstalker is the only multiclass i have planned rest are all monoclass

just aizo got me interested and reading the abilities made it sound really good for an assassin like char

which i'm also making

think the char i'm the most excited to make is the devotion paladin cuz i think i can flesh him out alot more then the others with giving him a story and everything

@pastel idol https://docs.google.com/document/d/1mjSR0tdDzZqugNlEaaZ8yybHSNoEFt6Z8mB1ljhFR_o/edit?usp=sharing

the legally distinct King in Yellow for my Tuesday campaign

[pastel idol]

oh

justin

[violet cave]

READ IT

[pastel idol]

just a second

you reminded me

my eldritch cleric character's "god" from grim hollow:
https://www.worldanvil.com/w/etharis-baz/a/venin-person

[violet cave]

see this is legally distinct

because the King in Amber for my campaign is Hebo, the old god of the Yellow River

[pastel idol]

god of illusion, lies, and insanity
gradually makes subjects go insane
not know reality from delusion

exactly what I want my eldritch character

also "neutral evil" alignment

[violet cave]

he's going after the party because 9 years ago, the fighter dammed the Yellow River to kill an entire army and the dead bodies sunk into the river

so the King in Amber has demanded his soul as reparation

He will challenge the fighter alone, but.........

[pastel idol]

I like it

[violet cave]

pls read the stablock, tell me if this is a good boss fight

he's against a group of lvl 11 adventurers

[proud pebble]

you took the monologue from Odin in that one film

[violet cave]

[pastel idol]

generally, I find of end bosses, you want a groups consensus
like for acererak we fought- the general consensus is that he's practically an impossible fight without the beast god's help
so I'd say we did fantastic, since we technically won, even though we didn't get the good ending

[violet cave]

oh he's not the final boss

rmb it's SUn Wukong

[pastel idol]

I'm not a dm, so I don't know encounter powers

I just like creating characters

[violet cave]

@proud pebble you can read it too, tell me how cooked the party is 🤣

[pastel idol]

what's the normal amount of deathliness for a final boss you're looking for?

[violet cave]

i've already decided on that, it was the Sun Wukong unbound statblock i showed a while back

[pastel idol]

the internet says, even with the trickster god's help, it should be expected that acererak kills at least one party member, at least

[proud pebble]

the +143 health per enemy within 120ft is kinda bs

[pastel idol]

his statblock kind of reads like a boss'ified eldritch knight

[proud pebble]

he is a warlock

[pastel idol]

yee

but heavy armour, weapons and multi attack

also welcome back cannon, hope you had a pleasant last few days

[proud pebble]

heh nope

[pastel idol]

[violet cave]

should i halve that

[proud pebble]

straight up no imo

I legit think it makes him unkillable

at party lv12 right?

[pastel idol]

I think justin said the plan was a duel between him and one other?
which would still give him at least +143

#1242281898844360744 message

[proud pebble]

maybe?
at lv12 you'd struggle to find a character that could do that much damage per turn

[pastel idol]

by the way cannon, I really like venin

[violet cave]

yes

[violet cave]

with the magic items i've given them I've got a barbarian that has Living dead from Dark Knight FFXIV, the fighter can deal an avg of 70 damage in a single turn, We have two clerics and a star druid

and a monk

[proud pebble]

so he's 1v1ing a creature that gains twice as many hp as he can do damage per turn

he literally can't win

[pastel idol]

not per turn

he just has that extra health per creature in range

[violet cave]

the idea is if someone else joins the fight and rolls initiative, that feature activates

[proud pebble]

oh beyond the first

[violet cave]

yes

[proud pebble]

that does make a big difference then

hmm

it's probably balanced in a 1v1 then

but more then one is kinda busted

[violet cave]

if they all jump in well

.........well

what was a tough duel becomes potential tpk

[pastel idol]

I heard a dm give a trick for early tpks- basically let one part member "wake up" so to say
while on their way to the thing, having had a vision of their demise- can only be done once per group however
the person said

but since you have mutliple protective casters in that team- like, just have one cleric do shield of faith and warding bond
and the other something like, death ward and protection from energy from the expected type of damage- as well as other good stuff
like aid or heroes' feast and such

plenty they can do, if they aren't starved from spell slots beforehand

just buff up the fighter

oh, and holy weapon on him as well

[violet cave]

hmmmmm

[burnt sorrel]

im makin my character, might make 2 in case i die too

[pastel idol]

I'm excited for my eldritch cleric, but in case she falls
I do have a redemption paladin who really rather enter at a higher level anyway

[violet cave]

See that's the fun part. If it's a TPK....the god will revive them all except for the barbarian because of the pact that was struck

"a soul for a soul"

[crude pelican]

What are you planning to do for Cannon's next campaign?

[lofty warren]

just dont die guys.

[ancient sun]

So no dnd today?

[crude pelican]

[crude pelican]

[lofty warren]

https://tenor.com/view/hang-over3-comedy-zach-galifianakis-fabulous-gif-3413881

Oh yea and for anyone wondering

That's real artwork by a real talented artist

[proud pebble]

where'd you get a pic of my uncle

[lofty warren]

Nephew? Its me your uncle. ||i just used my pic and made that. I wish i was that slim. ||

[violet cave]

https://www.youtube.com/shorts/Xtivz7hEX5g

how cool would it be if the ToA party did an escape from Avernus

[proud pebble]

https://tenor.com/view/doom-doom-slayer-doom-guy-doom-eternal-crucible-gif-19831598

It would be cool

but I'm already doing two games XD

stop giving me more work

[pastel idol]

gives cannon less work, runs one of the campaigns

[proud pebble]

TOO LATE YOU SAID IT

https://tenor.com/view/run-runaway-patrick-fail-gif-14152421204747397078

[pastel idol]

speaking of, I found a better dress for her, that didn't look so "robe'y"

difficult to find a good pose for them where it doesn't look weird
this one is supposed to be a light curtsey

[pastel idol]

oneshot where the party takes on an escape from avernus attempt

[pastel idol]

yeah.. about that..

being a cleric, she does have access to healing, and even revivify at later levels.. however
she is specifically not a healer, nor does she intend to spend her turns protecting the party
she is a control caster, with focus on debilitating effects and area control

I'll re-emphasize on the fact that she is not a healer, and her party should play as if she cannot heal
while she does have access to it, she is not a nice person

but I suppose, more about that on session 0

[violet cave]

Cannon: alright folks you have to get out of Avernus. The world is destroyed but you see a portal across the blood plains, and it might be your way out. Time to raze hell

[pastel idol]

[violet cave]

we can shelve that for something later xD

aka cannon please dont burn yourself with two campaigns

[proud pebble]

oh btw Dendar will end up eating the gods because they can't actaully defeat her

[pastel idol]

cu113n turns into a triceratops- everyone mounts him. xopah activates her highest level spirit guardians, and cu113n charges

[lofty warren]

just click your heels and say - theres no place like home!

[violet cave]

nahhhh

You're forgetting Xan casting Fly

A flying triceratops with spirit guardians

[pastel idol]

[proud pebble]

I'm considering doing 3 out 4 weeks per month for each campaign

and staggering the day off

so play every week but not both every week

[pastel idol]

is good to get some time off too

by the way cannon, I read up about the place the inquisition is supposedly from
and I understand that they don't like the arcane, basically wizards and sorcerers(maybe warlocks?)
but I couldn't find anything about divine magic, like what clerics do- are clerics openly allowed to perform?

[proud pebble]

will probably do both each week for at least the first month or two
after uni starts back up, we'll see

[proud pebble]

mostly open practice, lots of commoner's still don't trust it
but it's technically officially sanctioned so peeps won't witch hunt over it

[pastel idol]

[neat dust]

i'v not even thought about what i would do if i died in either campaign maybe i should make a reserve char for each

i'll prep a primal spirit barbarian as a replacement for my monk should he die >.<

[spice bobcat]

awww I can't play with wifey this time

so many new peeps tho. should be interesting

[pastel idol]

will be fun

while I'm still a cleric in the coming campaign, this character is the polar opposite of xopah
rhea(name still unsure) is not a nice person, although her actions might make peepos think she is

[crude pelican]

Why she got them dogs out?

[crude pelican]

Fuck it just kill the enemy and tell me what good stuff to use in the situation

[spice bobcat]

I would say that ray-uh. was that what you were looking for or more a Ree-uh? in romanji that'd be raio or rio. y'all don't really have an "uh" sound

I guess ah would be more accurate but I'm southern lul

[pastel idol]

the first one is the intent

"ray-ya" kind of

[spice bobcat]

あ is closest I guess to ah

ahh

so similar to "ray of" sunshine

[pastel idol]

yee

though she is anything but

at early levels for combat parts, she will likely be using "bane" a lot

her "god" is the goddess of deceit, who literally make her own followers eventually go mad

"illusion, lies, and insanity"

[spice bobcat]

names are the earliest form of deceit

[pastel idol]

fixed some things I had neglected to fix
two variations

[neat dust]

one has a scar?

[pastel idol]

they're supposed to mimic kind of like this off her eyes

[spice bobcat]

I like it

[pastel idol]

and when she casts (her actual) spells, her eyes turns into dark voids
similar to when other clerics cast divine magic glows with divine light

[pastel idol]

afterlife HR

[neat dust]

indeed

idk if i'm gonna be able to make much of it but i'm gonna try

[pastel idol]

As a young girl, Rhea were often praised for her affinities for the divine, and when she came of age, were recruited into the Inquisition.

The inquisitors had high hopes for her, said she'd make it far, possibly even a place of authority within the Inquisition one day.

As the seasons passed, Rhea's talents bloomed, and missions to quell the vile arcane users sated her thirst for adventure.. There was just one issue; Rhea was curious, perhaps too curious..

One evening, her curiosity got the better of her after curfew at the inquisitor's place, and she snuck out into the halls. There, she came upon a door that was normally closed shut.

From inside, voices could be heard.. and as she peeked in, she saw one of the elder inquisitors interrogate a prisoner, but she weren't quite as sneaky as she thought, and the prisoner locked eyes with her without the inquisitor noticing, and as he did, countless voices of dead gods and elder things infiltrated her mind through him all at once, which awakened her to her eldritch abilities.

With her newfound abilities, and knowledge of dangerous truths the inquisitors had tried to hide, Rhea let her presence be known, as she whispered under her breath; "Bleed". The old inquisitor turns around and makes the motions as if trying to say something, but no voice leaves his mouth.. His eyes go wide as blood begins trickling from them, then from his nose, and then his ears.. And then the old inquisitor was no more.. Rhea looks at the prisoner briefly, and then made her escape.

---

her backstory thus far

child prodigy of the inquisition gone rogue

kind of stuff

[neat dust]

sounds interesting

yet to figure stuff out or flesh it out properly but atm i'm thinking of trying to make my chars story be that hes a wandere in service of the raven queen how to translate that to me being some sort fo reaper i'm not sure

[lofty warren]

wait we need back story?

[neat dust]

nothing as detailed as what aizo made just a simple story to kinda just help the dm explain why ur suddenly there with the party

maybe to say who u are a bit as well

[pastel idol]

no, it just flavours who your character is

I like to flesh mine out with a good backstory

[neat dust]

my first char i just wrote that i used to be thief but no like so wanted to try being good

[pastel idol]

a backstory also helps a dm include your character into their world

[neat dust]

i realise i have failed

[lofty warren]

oh shits. time to use the power of chatgpt 🙂

[lofty warren]

the story. beware 18+
||Hulk Smol, “The Honey Badger”
At just over three feet tall and forty-something years drunk, Hulk Smol is living proof that the gods occasionally create jokes just to watch them bleed. A Lightfoot halfling with no clear memory of his childhood (or yesterday), Hulk insists he was either abandoned at birth, born in a tavern, or both. What he does remember is ale, oil, and an overwhelming need to wrestle the universe into submission.

Known as The Honey Badger because “he don’t give a shit,” Hulk charges into battle slicked in oil, half-naked, screaming, and swinging his axes like he’s trying to chop firewood that owes him money. He is, in fact, 99.9% naked at all times, having misplaced the single scrap of leather that once covered his “precious bits.” Those bits, while average by halfling standards, have never earned a complaint—because, as Hulk boasts, “It’s not the size, it’s how you use it, and I use it like a warhammer.”

He beds anything that moves—orc, elf, troll, goat-shaped statue—because in his words: “It’s all practice.” Taverns fear him, brothels ban him, and yet every dungeon somehow ends up smelling faintly of sweat, spilled beer, and lamp oil whenever he arrives. His alignment? Chaotic Neutral. His philosophy? “If it bleeds, I can drink with it. If it doesn’t bleed, I’ll still try.”||

[pastel idol]

my redemption paladin, with grim hollow fixes, returned to level 1

[neat dust]

u got 2 max rolls

[pastel idol]

not exactly, they're increased by other things

I'm not that lucky

[proud pebble]

I am

[pastel idol]

cannon, I found a way to be even more immortal
which my redemption paladin would be, except she's a pacifist
so she won't really "return fire" on anyone

[neat dust]

i was with liger or well with getting 18 dex

also sheet still look so clean and neat

[proud pebble]

my character with the highest scores was 18, 14, 20, 14, 13, 13 at lv1

[neat dust]

variant human?

[proud pebble]

yes

[neat dust]

just looking at aizo's char and saw the race

[proud pebble]

say hello to barbarian with 17hp at lv1

[pastel idol]

variant human so you start with grim hollow's "witch hunter" feat
"ruined" background, so you get to start with "tough" feat
be paladin for aura of protection for increased saves
level 4, take shield master to add to dex saves
level 8, take resilient to add proficiency to dex saves

by then, you have like, +8 to all saves(goes even higher)
spells targeting you needs to beat a preliminary wisdom save that has +8 to it, to even be able to target you
followed by the actual rolls, and if a dex save, shield master pops in

[neat dust]

oh grim hollow adds races as well?

[pastel idol]

variant human is not from grim hollow

it just changed human traits

[neat dust]

i see

[proud pebble]

but yes, Grim Hollow adds races

[pastel idol]

also that

[neat dust]

i'm thinking of making a guardian spirit barbarian but i just saw the first vampire warlock and now i'm curious

[pastel idol]

and again, things marked with a level is stuff I don't have yet
but will get at those levels

[pastel idol]

the first vampire warlock I'm scared of

my cleric has 10 health at level 1, which is pretty much the average you'd find

first vampire warlocks, by average, does 11 damage with their feature
or 25 on a max roll-- at level 1

[neat dust]

i'm making both

[pastel idol]

it's specifically the drain life feature I mean

[neat dust]

i got the idea of making a bloody mary vampire and i like it to much to not make it now

[crude pelican]

Mephala is that you?

[crude pelican]

It's all just like Elder Scrolls builds I fucking knew it

[neat dust]

where did i see the variant human?

wanna compair to regular human see which one i would want more for the vampire

oh it's just under human

[pastel idol]

say he's using a 1d6 weapon- 3 being the average roll- add the bonus necrotic hit
which is a 1d6+spell mod, making it a minimum of +4 to that, so you have 7 average now

when that feature hits, you expend 1 spell slot, adding 2d8 to ON TOP of that, at level 1
adding 4 x2 average damage to the 7, making it 15 on an average roll- or 11 on a low roll

at
level
one

[pastel idol]

https://dnd5e.wikidot.com/human

[crude pelican]

You just wait till my Lizard Wizard comes

[neat dust]

hmm mark of finding

[crude pelican]

He will save your arses and achieve glory

[neat dust]

offs self with a fireball

i wish the races had a pick next to them so i could see them

wanna see if there is any human like races without like horns or scales or something

[pastel idol]

excuse me, I said 25 damage max roll- I meant 33

I didn't calculate for the 2nd d8

still at level 1 by the way

[neat dust]

[pastel idol]

[neat dust]

now help me find a good race for this thing

i wanna make a female vampire so i can call her mary (bloody mary)

a very original idea ofc

[pastel idol]

first vampire, pact of the blade warlock

[neat dust]

multiclass?

[pastel idol]

pact of the blade is a warlock feature

[neat dust]

ah i see

got confused

[pastel idol]

multiple pacts available, but blade is the melee one
that vampire seem to want, since it's drain life is melee

[neat dust]

i think i give up and just chose human

now i saw there is alot of different humans

can i pick anyone of them?

is mark of finding a type of human or something my human can have?

[pastel idol]

it's a type of variant human

[crude pelican]

Lizardfolk

[neat dust]

no scales

[crude pelican]

Only scales

Snake people were my first pick but sadly not allowed

[neat dust]

so under race i say mark of finding or the whole thing like variand human (mark of finding)?

[pastel idol]

you can just put "variant human" and add the mark traits elsewhere

or, name it "marked human"

[neat dust]

ag i see

ah*

oh wait i start as first vampire?

not start as warlock and then become first vampire?

[pastel idol]

yee

warlocks, like clerics, get their subclass at 1st level

[neat dust]

unsure what stats i want

i see one of them uses charisma

[pastel idol]

warlocks main stat is charisma

and if you go pact of the blade, you will even use your charisma for attack and damage rolls, with weapons

err let me double check if that's a hexblade feature

[proud pebble]

charisma and con are your most important

[pastel idol]

ah yes, hexblade feature, not pact of the blade

but as cannon says

[proud pebble]

then I guess if you're melee take either str or dex for the third highest

[pastel idol]

depending on desired weapon

[neat dust]

also confused on the pact thing

where do i see the pacts?

[pastel idol]

pacts is a thing you choose at 3rd level
they're on the warlock page

pact of the- blade, chain, tome, or talisman

[neat dust]

outside of this sudden urge for vampire lady char i actualy wanted to make a hexblade warlock

[pastel idol]

also I found a way to actually be redemption paladin before level 7
you just use fighting style: "interception" until level 8, and then switch to "defense" since you now
have the "guardian" feature from redemption

[neat dust]

nice

ok so i think i need to roll my stats befor i start doing this race stuff

[pastel idol]

it works kiiind of similar, in that you can reduce damage from allies near you, just not as reliably

[neat dust]

4,4,6,5= 15 cuz dnd math

3,2,4,2=9

5,5,4,6=16

5,6,6,5=17

4,2,6,3=13

4,4,1,5=13

[pastel idol]

good rolls

[proud pebble]

pretty good

[pastel idol]

[proud pebble]

very good for a character that needs 3 stats

[neat dust]

cha:17 con:16 dex: 15

unsure how to distribute the others

[pastel idol]

and with race, should make it to 18cha, and 16dex, probably

[neat dust]

str gets 9 i think

[proud pebble]

one of the few times I'd consisder being a normal human

because so many odd numbers

[proud pebble]

oh aizo

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=L43WHGk51wY

new song

[pastel idol]

hey cannon, are you sure grim hollow's first vampire is entirely balanced?
it's average damage at first level is around 15, with 10 being a low roll, and 33 being max roll

at level 1

[neat dust]

9 is -1?

or 0?

[pastel idol]

[proud pebble]

-1

[proud pebble]

I never said it was balanced, I said it was fun

[neat dust]

[pastel idol]

I have 10 health, I'm in danger

[neat dust]

i'm not useing this char anyway so it's fine

unless my monk dies then maybe

[proud pebble]

you're all in danger, it's Grim Hollow

[pastel idol]

[pastel idol]

did you see my updated hero forge models?

[pastel idol]

it's not a pvp campaign anyway-- unless that's why cannon is doing 2, secretly

[neat dust]

regular human has no proficiency?

[pastel idol]

I don't intend for my eldritch cleric to die, but if she does
and inserts are allowed after, I'd have my redemption paladin give it a go

[pastel idol]

no, but each of your stats increase by 1

[neat dust]

is mark of finding in addition to the variant stuff?

[pastel idol]

the different marked humans are their own race

so only look at their stuff

[neat dust]

ah i see

hmm mark of finding will let me get 120ft of dark vision

[proud pebble]

I make no comments

[neat dust]

mark of passage gives me misty step and 35ft walking speed

thought that would be cool as a vampire to kinda just disapear in mist

i also get pass without trace at lv.2

or no?

it's a second level spell

[pastel idol]

the spells follow normal spell rules

a warlock is a full caster, so 2nd level spells are at 3- 3rd level at 5, and so on

[proud pebble]

https://tenor.com/view/nerd-ackchyually-actually-gif-11156171

warlock is classed as a unique caster not a full caster

[pastel idol]

oh yeah

their spell level doesn't go over 5th

[neat dust]

passage gives me +2 in dex and +1 in what ever i chose

could make me 17dex and 18 cha

regular humans would also give me 18cha, 14 wis, 14 int, 17 con, 16 dex 10str

all stats would be double digits

confused what was it that let me pick a feat on my rogue?

is it just i can either improve my ability or pick a feat?

[pastel idol]

I considered making a nyooooning drunk monk who's a kessig human
they start with 40 base movement, then add mobile feat for 50, monk then later gets up to +20 movespeed
making it a total of 70- with the mobile feat you also don't trigger opportunity attacks from leaving melee range
and you more than double most creature's speed, so you can forever bonk them, and run away

[neat dust]

just doing hit and runs

[pastel idol]

at 4th, 8th, 12th, 16th and 19th level
you get to pick either a feat, or +2 to an ability, or +1 in two separate

the regular variant human gets to start with a feat, but doesn't have anything else
the "ruined" background also lets you pick between certain feats to start with

but you start with little to nothing, since the ruined background is literal

[neat dust]

if i can pick a feat instead of ability score improvement at level 4 then i could pick regular human get all my stats up and then get fey touched at lv.4 and get misty step and +1 to charisma getting me to then 19 cha

oh right i'v forgotten about background

[pastel idol]

remember you need levels of 2 for the improvements to matter

19 is the same as 18- need 20 to bump the modifier up

[neat dust]

doesn't the number it self matter for something?

[pastel idol]

no

[neat dust]

boo

[pastel idol]

a higher score means you're closer to the next modifier increase

[neat dust]

other 2 options is wisdom and int which will be 14 making either of them 15

vampire lady will be a walking cliche if i can manage it

unsure if discrased noble woman or just poor woman

what is AL in the backgrounds?

oh entertainer

singer who lost her voice and got it back from the pact

idk if i can but if i can i'd make her specialise in charms and such

i think i will do regular human

proficiency bonus is allways 2 unless stated other wise yes?

[proud pebble]

at 1st level, yes

[neat dust]

did my monk get to pick expertice in any skill?

do all chars get to do that?

[proud pebble]

only a few get it

[neat dust]

i see so probably not

i'm not particularly great at anything

if i pick entertainer i get +5 on acrobatics and +6 on performance

oh ruined seems nice

[pastel idol]

just remember, ruined means you lost everything of what you had prior

M31 is ruined, she lost her job and fame- leaving her with only her suit, because it's magically impossible to remove from her

[neat dust]

oh so i have no items?

[pastel idol]

you still have your class items, and whatever ruined gives you
just no extra things from background stuff

[neat dust]

oh thats fine

with ruined i can get the skilled feat and gain profficiency in 5 things

2 with stealth and survival from ruined it self

and 3 of my choise form the skilled feat

so i go from having no profficiencies to having 5

[proud pebble]

and two from the class

[pastel idol]

my redemption paladin- bit more armoured

yes I used the same dress, sue me

[neat dust]

oh class also gives me proficiencies

[proud pebble]

it's a cute dress

[neat dust]

now which proficiencies to chose

oh wait 7 proficiencies

[proud pebble]

oh yeah, one for being human

[neat dust]

i thought i got none for being human?

[proud pebble]

are you basic human?

[neat dust]

yes so i could get all my stats up

[proud pebble]

ah, then yes, you don't get one for being human

[neat dust]

i now have 10str, 16dex, 17con, 14 int, 14wis and 18 cha

and now that i have 4 proficiencies from the back ground and class i wonder if alert wouldn't be better then skilled

[pastel idol]

up to you

[neat dust]

can't be suprised and creatures don't get advantaged as a result of being unseen by me

[pastel idol]

"better" is subjective in dnd- my cleric for cannon's campaign was a tortle
which is directly a negative for clerics wanting to wear heavy armour

alert is a good feat, though

[neat dust]

atm i have prficiency in stealth, survival, deception and investigation if i pick skilled i can chose 3 more

[pastel idol]

my redemption paladin is a variant human, with ruined background-
so she starts with "witch hunter" feat from grim hollow, and "tough" feat from ruined

her backstory similarly to my eldritch cleric, is basically from the inquisition
but she was thrown out, since she showed empathy to the arcane users

[umbral osprey]

Wait we're meant to make 2 chars?

[pastel idol]

no

I just like making characters, and val's got a taste for it

[umbral osprey]

Ah

[pastel idol]

my redemption paladin however, would be my insert, if my eldritch cleric falls(if cannon allows)
I don't intend for her to die however, as I'm equally excited to try her

[neat dust]

if my monk dies i will either use this char or the spirit guardian one

[proud pebble]

what were you playing again?

[neat dust]

witch hunter is a paladin feat?

[pastel idol]

grim hollow thing

https://www.worldanvil.com/w/etharis-calloi/a/grim-hollow-feats-article

I can justify having witch hunter, since my characters were part of the inquisition

I like feats being lore accurate, or I won't take them

[umbral osprey]

Zeal pally X hexblade warlock , the sheet is here somewhere

Hes probably gonna oath break at somepoint

But depends on what we get up to

[proud pebble]

kewl

just making notes whilst I have time

[pastel idol]

as a redemption paladin, I am the direct opposite of your oath-
it's extremely specific what I can attack at all, or I simply oathbreak
so I just made her a general pacifist

though stuff like undead and fiends she can technically attack, no matter circumstances

[neat dust]

am i understanding it right that i can have any of these feats given i meet the requierments?

like nocturnal or bloodhound?

maybe even both?

[umbral osprey]

Yeah my guy is supposed to be an executioner of the inquisition, I even gave him a greatsword which Is meant to be one of these , these existed irl but were only ceremonial cus they were too heavy however he's a 6'8" half orc so he can swing it with ease

[pastel idol]

they are feats like any other feats

[neat dust]

confused

[pastel idol]

[neat dust]

does that mean yes?

[pastel idol]

yes

[pastel idol]

I didn't even give her a weapon

[neat dust]

i meet the requierment of several of these can i just stack them then?

[pastel idol]

her background(nothing written yet), is supposed to be her being part of the inquisition
but showing empathy for the mages and sorcerers, and disagreeing with their cruel methods
so she was thrown out, titles and all

to fit the "ruined" background

[lofty warren]

people already making second characters as they afraid to die?

[pastel idol]

nobody will die, creating characters is simply fun

[neat dust]

indeed

if i can i will add 3 feats

[proud pebble]

everyone got a little ptsd from Tomb eh

[pastel idol]

also fits her taking the oath of redemption, seeking to redeem others

[umbral osprey]

I mean so far we have tpked twice in the og game so never hurts to be safe

[neat dust]

bloodhound, nimble physique and nocturnal

[pastel idol]

we didn't get the good ending, but we technically won ! we beat the final boss, and nobody can tell me otherwise

[neat dust]

figured bloodhound and nocturnal fit with me being a vampire nimble is just cuz i can

dm i am allowed to do this yes?

[lofty warren]

just ad a Jr. to the name and presto. new char.
