How many AUs do you have? (And can you tell what they all are?😅😁)
I have 10 Au's so far so here they are with a bit of info in no particular order
1. kidnapped kai au
ok so in this au kai unlocks his elemental powers before he met Wu causing garmadon to take an interest in him and so kai was the one who was kidnapped instead of nya and nya has to get kai back -she also joins the ninja team from the start and is told about her parents and their powers
I have fanfictuon out about this -just search the kidnapped kai au tag but im taking a break from updating so that I can plan it out more and have an outline
2. is my bnha crossover au
so this morro, garmadon and harumi get reincarnated into the bnha verse
morro becomes the adopted older brother of the main character midoriya
harumi becomes the twin of this crazy rich inventory girl
and garmadon becomes a theripist
they all basically help the main character achieve his end goal of becoming the no.1 hero without a superpower -idk if you watch bnha but basically 80% of the people there have a power called a quirk and the main character is a part of the 20% that don't)
Im also making an outline for this one so I might write it out sometime next Yearo making an outline for this one so I might write it out sometime next Year
3. hybrid smith siblings au
basically ray is a demon and maya is an angel they fell in love and were kicked out of their homes and hurled to earth -they use magic to keep their appearance hidden and nonbody knows
-until kai starts growing wings and horns
-nya grows them too but it starts at a certain age so at the start the focus is mostly on kai
I don't have much for this au besides its polyninja lol
I just think that jay would help with sensory overloads since Kai's senses inhance and also his wings are very sensitive
and zane would help kai with feeling different
and Cole is just the rock that knows what to say to ground him
thats literally all I have for this au
4. polyninja fam au
ok so in this au the ninja -who are all dating- get tired of saving ninja go and quit and run away -taking lloyd with them and adopting him ofc
-they also steal some yesterday's tea and turn lloyd back Into a kid so he can have the life head supposed to
-so first they live in the old lighthouse zanes dad was trapped in since its self sustaining -which is where they find echo who they also adopt
then slowly they each get jobs
-cole becomes a comic book artist/author
-kai and lloyd make video games (they also have cole make comics for said video games
-zane becomes a chef (who donates half his profits to orphanages)
-and jay works for cyrus borg
we also have polyponytail:
-nya and pixal help skylor out at the noodle shop
-they mostly help by making invitations to help with everything
-but if it's real busy they help in the restaurant
dareth and ronin are also dating and pretty much lloyd and echos uncles
-ronin uses them as a distraction to steal stuff though
-dareth is good at making up weird games
-they are good babysitters
-sorta
also brad and gene become good friends with lloyd and echo
5. highschool au -this is also polyninja-
this was made with @/stranger mask @/lloyd-garma-gun and @/superstar-rockin-abs
basically the ninja are in highschool but
pastel goth zane
jock jay
nerd kai
vintage cole
polyponytail met in chess club
polyamory with lloyd gene and brad and they are all cheer leaders
halfway checkpoint
6. nindroid jay au
jay is one of the older prototypes that dr.Julian made and dumped
years later Ed and edna find him and repair him
since his parents are inventors he basically adds a bunch of things to himself -like retractable wings and stuff
Zane and him feel a weird connection but neither of them remember their creator until tick-tock -this is all I have for this au
7. paranormal YouTubers au
this is an au im making for @/wojira and if u want more details u should probably ask her -I'll also tag u in the og post about this au if you ask
basically the ninja are collage sstudents who started a YouTube channel where they invest haunted places as a joke but they become super popular -again more details in the original post if you ask-
8. manipulative morro au
me and @/thebluelittlewitch2-thesequel made this but @/superstar-rockin-abs and @/grembeak gave hs the idea i think
basically lloyd didn't get hit by tomorrows tea so instead of possessing lloyd morro manipulates him into doing things for him by saying that lloyd gone crazy and the only way for 'the voicemail' -aka morro- to go away is for him to do certain things
harumi later teams up with morro for a second try on revenge andalso becomes more of a mother figure to lloyd then a lover -lloyd is a bit younger then her in this au
she uses her powers to start an orphanage but really its a place for her to train and raise a cult of parentless children that they are orphans because of lloyd and that if they follow her they can all have revenge
her code name is changed respectively to 'mother lullaby' and morro's is 'toxic wind'
9. evil ed and edna au
basically Ed and edna are evil assasins/ inventors who become obsessed with making the ultimate weapon
they basically turn jay into a hydra experiment -training him and experimenting on him over and over and over-
but eventually they decide that he is a failed experiment and abandon him -at this point he looks far from human
but kai and nya find him and take him in -he is a year older then nya so nya is ten hes eleven and kai is 13-
at first jay thinks he was kiddnaped but there is no way these kids could have so then he thinks that him being there is another test and he has to figure out what it is but eventually he figures out he was abandoned

they become a small family

100 Warm-Up Roleplaying Questions for Players
Character: Amur
Universe: Pathfinder
Gender/Race/Class: Male human Paladin/Holy Vindicator
Alignment: NG/CG
Questions source: here
Full (long) post under the cut.
1. If your character wasn’t an adventurer, what livelihood would they lead?
His parents were peasants who worked as labourers, so probably that. If he ever receives charity from any organisation, he’d strive to work for them.
2. Who in the party would your character trust the most with their life?
If it’s strictly his life, Niyooshan - for some reason the alchemist seems to refuse to let him die or even get too hurt. Maybe it’s a healer thing.
If it’s about making decisions based on his best interest... he doesn’t trust anyone in the current party with that at the moment.
3. What are your character’s core moral beliefs?
People are essentially good.
Mercy and compassion is no less important than justice and righteousness.
Any good is worth doing.
Everyone deserves to be treated with dignity.
4. What relationship does your character have with their parents and siblings?
He left home at the age of 8, and his parents were largely absentee in those years. He honours them out of societal expectations of filial piety, but that’s about it.
He’s the second child of five. His older brother (1st) and younger sister (4th) passed when he was 7; he depended a lot on the former, and got along well with the latter as they have the most similar personalities amongst the siblings at the time.
For his surviving siblings, he is very close to his younger brother (3rd, only a year his junior), and they still exchange letters frequently. He and his youngest sister (5th) barely knew one another until they reunited recently as adults.
5. Does your character have any biases for or against certain races?
Having the privilege of being human, he has the common in-universe biases but he tries his best to check them. He does this especially consciously when it comes to race/ancestry (i.e. species) - one of his friends from his apprentice days was lynched for being a drow.
6. What is your character’s opinion on nobility? On authority?
He respects nobility who is responsible in their post, and righteous authority.
Otherwise he tolerates them and tries not to cause trouble... unless they do something with which he greatly disagrees morally.
7. Describe your character’s current appearance: clothes, armour, scars they’ve picked up along the journey, etc.
(Skipping the part about scars - addressed in #21)
He dresses in full, heavy plate armour complete with a kite shield when out in the field or in battle.
During downtime, he wears simple tunics with trousers and boots, usually with his sleeves rolled up to his elbows. Sometimes he wears a gambeson on top or a leather cuirass for more formality.
8. What location encountered in the campaign has your character felt the most “at home” in, or just generally liked the most?
(Answering the second part - first part addressed in #40.)
The small towns and villages they’ve passed through with down-to-earth folks. Though he also likes cities with rich histories and culture.
9. What deity, if any, does your character worship? What’s their opinion on other people’s worship?
Sarenrae - the goddess of the sun, redemption, honesty, and healing.
He respects most other gods and religions on the good or neutral side of the good-evil axis. With evil gods, he tries not to judge their believers until evil actions based on such beliefs are actually taken.
10. If your character had time to pick up any artisan’s tools, game set, instrument, etc., what would it be?
Some sort of sculpture, maybe pottery or carving. He’s a very tactile person.
11. Describe your character’s current relationship with the player character sitting to your right.
(Rolling 1d3 between 1. Amalli, 2. Mawari, 3. Niyooshan)
AMALLI: It’s complicated - he trusts that she means well and has his best interest in mind, however what she considers “best” is rather... unusual. He teeters between having faith that she is kind by nature, and being annoyed at her messed up values and principles ingrained by nurture.
12. What is your character’s current goal, summed up in one sentence?
Save the sun, keep his uncle alive, vindicate his friend’s honour.
13. Does your character ever want to “settle down” with a spouse, children, house, etc.?
He’s a sojourner who feels uneasy if he has to stay in one place for an extended amount of time. At this point he’s accepted the single life; it makes it easier to travel.
14. Has your character ever been in love?
He’s aromantic/asexual and can’t really distinguish between romantic and platonic love very well. He does love his friends and found family deeply however.
15. What battle in the campaign has been most memorable to your character?
Against a dragon turtle which is also a divine guardian of sorts. The party angered it and was having trouble hurting it at all; he used Greater Angelic Aspect for the first time to speak to it so it would stop attacking them. It eventually involved taking a massive hit for it and dying (for the first time since level 1), but it ended the battle with no further damages to the party.
16. If your character wasn’t whatever class they are, what would they be instead?
A cleric. Arguably with his temperament he’d have turned out better as one.
17. What is your character’s favourite season?
Spring - the sun gets stronger, the day gets longer, the plants and animals become livelier.
18. What would your character’s Zodiac sign be, following stereotypical astrology?
Pisces.
19. Where in the world does your character most want to visit?
If it’s only Golarion and the material plane - the Padishah Empire of Kelesh.
20. What is the biggest mistake your character has ever made?
Boy where do we begin. A few months ago he’d have said “going to pee alone that one time”, but he’s okay with that now.
He thinks his biggest mistake was to give in to despair and as a result fell from grace and lost his god-given powers. He counts the lives lost that could otherwise be saved as his fault.
21. Does your character have any noticeable scars? If so, what are their stories?
A scar on his neck from a time when he wanted to kill himself, and a stigmata in the form of a sunburst brand on his right hand from when he became a Holy Vindicator.
22. What animal best represents your character?
Bison - sometimes peaceful and absentminded, other times temperamental; bull-headed, tough and hardy, and stubborn.
23. If your character could go back in time and change one thing about their life, what would it be?
Aside from not falling from grace as per #20... pick a more common language to learn in school. See #95.
24. Which other player character does your character find themselves having the most in common with?
Those in the first adventuring party he’s had - with Adeline, Mirele, and Kebarong. Simple people with simple needs. Their personalities may be very different, but at least they live in worlds that are relatable.
25. Does your character regret any particular choice the party has made?
Anything that involves the deaths of innocents, even/especially if it’s for the “greater good”.
26. What would your character say their best trait would be?
His faith in humanity.
27. What is your character’s greatest fear? Deep, irrational?
Having his soul doomed in one way or another. Presently the most plausible method by which this can happen is to have it torn asunder and destroyed.
28. What is currently motivating your character to stay with the party?
He knows he can’t do much of anything alone - not only does he play a supportive role in combat, he needs his companions’ skills, qualities, experience, and expertise to achieve the massive goal they all share (to a degree) - see #12.
29. What are your character’s hobbies and interests outside of their class?
Animals (especially felines), writing letters, pleasant long walks somewhere outdoors.
30. What would most people think when they first see your character?
Big, shiny, clangy, scary-looking, heavily-armoured man. He himself is completely unaware of this perception.
31. What stereotypical group role does your character play in the party? (The Mom, the Mess, the Comic Relief, etc. Optionally: What role would your character play in the “Five Man Band” structure?)
Often he’s the Heart. In a Five Man Band he’d be (conditionally) the Leader, the Lancer, or the Chick.
32. What is your character the most insecure about?
His terrible schmoozing skills.
33. What person does your character admire most?
His benefactor, mentor, and mother figure - a cleric who gave up her peaceful life and comfortable home to travel the world as a missionary and healer.
34. What does your character admire and dislike the most about the player character sitting to your left?
(Rolling 1d3 between 1. Amalli, 2. Mawari, 3. Niyooshan)
NIYOOSHAN: He admires the alchemist’s resourcefulness, calm and analytical mind, general intelligence and skills in what he does.
He dislikes his cold rationality and ability to make brutal decisions without hesitation... but what he dislikes more is his own feeling of envy for such a quality. (See also #67.)
35. Why is your character’s lowest stat their lowest (the in-character reason, not “because there’s no reason for a wizard to have 16 strength, duh”)?
Strength and dexterity (I know). He grew up poor and missed out on some bulking up as a child. He’s hardy though.
36. What would be your character’s theme song/favourite band/favourite genre of music?
Folk music with lots of wind instruments.
37. What stereotypical role would your character play in a high school AU/if they attended a normal high school? (Nerd, jock, bully, goth, etc.)
Looks like a jock, acts like a nerd. Probably would get bullied if not for protective friends.
38. What treasure/item/artifact that your character has collected during the adventure is the most important to them?
His standard issue shield given by the Church (with which he shares a Divine Bond, and he has had various upgrades attached to it), letters from friends and those he considers family, a feather from the Vermillion Bird.
39. Is there any particular weapon, item, etc. that your character longs to find?
Right now, as the campaign demands - the Chronicles of the Righteous. Otherwise he’d love to come across any of Sarenrae’s divine artifacts.
40. Where does your character feel the most at home?
BACKSTORY: the Sarenite church grounds in Absalom, where he grew up.
IN-GAME: Falcon’s Hollow, despite its cursedness, where he met people he grew to trust with his life.
41. Does your character care about how they’re perceived by others? How do they change themselves to fit in with other people?
He cares how his loved ones see him insofar as he wants them to trust him, but he doesn’t compromise easily on the kind of person his principles make him.
42. What does your character think is the true meaning of life?
To find something worth loving in everything and everyone.
43. What is your character’s scent? (Bonus points for a description that sounds like it could be from a bad [or awesome] fanfic.)
Sun-burnt vegetation and a faint but unmistakable hint of metal.
44. Does your character think more with their heart or their brain?
Heart.
45. What is your character’s most recent or frequent nightmare?
His most frequent nightmares all involve fire - a child being incinerated, a pile of bodies being cremated, a gigantic flaming wheel in the sky overlooking chaos befalling a city.
46. What opinion does your character have on [CERTAIN ESTABLISHED GROUPS/AUTHORITIES IN THE GAME WORLD]? (Dragon-marked Houses, royal crown, etc.)
CHURCH OF SARENRAE IN ABSALOM: It was his home once; not anymore. Maybe it can’t ever be home again now that he’s seen how deep the corruption runs.
EAGLE KNIGHTS: They mean well, but they have a ruthless murderer in their own ranks and after all these years they haven’t sorted that out. Helpful to a point, at least.
HELL KNIGHTS OF THE SCOURGE: They’re more reasonable and likeable than he’d expected, and he’s not sure how to feel about that.
PATHFINDER SOCIETY: Crazy resourceful, shamelessly shifty.
JADE REGENT: Shit.
47. How did your character spend their childhood? Where did they grow up/who were their childhood friends?
He lived in poverty in a backwater town (Railford) in southern Taldor until the age of 8, when he was brought to the Church of Sarenrae in Absalom. His years there as an apprentice were the happiest, most peaceful of his life - he had his mentor and her companion as pseudo-parents, and made some close friends when he was training to be a paladin.
48. What aspect of your character’s future are they most curious about? (If they could know one thing about the future, what would it be?)
Whether or not he can redeem Shasriel. See also #52.
49. What colours are associated with your character?
Green, yellow, brown.
50. Who in the party would your character prioritise rescuing, in dire circumstances?
Among his current party of Amalli, Niyooshan, and Mawari, he’d prioritise Amalli because she’s been with him the longest and he knows her best out of the three.
51. Is your character the most swayed by ethos, pathos, or logos?
Pathos.
52. If your character was granted a single use of Wish, what would they use it for?
He’s wary of the repercussions and unforeseen consequences of such a powerful spell, so he’ll restrict it to wishing that the wraith feeding off of his soul be saved from undeath and her uncorrupted nature restored. See also #48.
53. What is your character’s favourite spell? If they don’t use spells: what is their favourite personal weapon/combat manoeuvre/skill/etc.?
Lay on Hands, with mercies and feats.
54. How does your character feel about keeping secrets from the rest of the party?
He doesn’t like it but he does it with people he’s not close to, out of fearing judgement. With close people he only keeps secrets if he himself doesn’t want to confront those things, which actually happens quite often.
55. What type of creature in the world is your character the most intrigued by?
Benevolent creatures that should be evil by nature - devils and undead for example.
56. When they were a child, what did your character want to be, or think they were going to be, when they grew up?
Before he went into paladin-specific training, he wanted to be a missionary cleric - just like his mentor.
57. The player character to your left admits that they’re passionately in love with your character. How would your character respond?
(Rolling 1d3 between 1. Amalli, 2. Mawari, 3. Niyooshan)
MAWARI: He’d think she’s ill, making a bad joke, or trying to curse him.
58. If somebody (an NPC, someone from their backstory, etc.) your character trusts/loves asked your character to do something against the party’s best interest, who would they side with?
It would depend of course, but at this point he doesn’t really trust his current party, so he would probably side with his loved one.
59. Does your character value their own best interest more than the party’s?
Definitely not, to a fault sometimes.
60. What decision would the party have to make in order for your character to consider splitting off from the group?
Something unequivocally cruel and undeniably evil.
61. How does your character imagine the way they will die?
In battle, protecting others with all that he can give.
62. What is your character’s greatest achievement?
Aside from the battle described in #15, being vindicated by his goddess at the exact moment he defied an order from his religious superiors.
63. Is your character willing to risk the well-being of others in order to achieve their goal?
Not at all, unless his goal also happens to be the greater good.
64. What is your character’s opinion on killing others?
He understands the necessity of killing in the kind of life he’s chosen to live, but he tries his best to avoid killing innocents, and even those who are guilty - so long as he thinks they have a chance to be redeemed.
65. What is your character’s favourite food? Beverage?
He doesn’t have single favourite, but he likes homey, hearty meals. Potatoes make him think of Kebarong, one of his closest companions. As of late he seems to have suddenly developed a constant craving for almonds.
66. How generous is your character? Especially to those they don’t know?
Very. He’d fall for any sob story; even if he knows he’s been cheated he wouldn’t change his ways, because his generosity being abused is not his problem, but the abuser’s.
67. What is your character the most envious about, regarding anyone in the party?
As addressed in #34, he’s envious about Niyooshan’s ability to make cruel but rational and/or necessary decisions. He is also sometimes envious of Amalli’s blissful ignorance of some realities of the world, but other times he feels sorry for her.
68. The player character to your left and the player character to your right are both telling your character two different versions of the truth. Who does your character believe?
(Rolling 2d3 between 1. Amalli, 2. Mawari, 3. Niyooshan)
MAWARI & AMALLI: This is a toughie. On the one hand he trusts Amalli more than Mawari, since he’s known the former for a while and became acquainted with the latter only recently; on the other hand Amalli has a way of viewing and interpreting reality that he really doesn’t understand sometimes. Ultimately he’d take Amalli’s word for it if he has to.
69. What is your character’s sexuality/relationship with sex?
He’s aromantic and asexual, although he does enjoy intimacy with friends (i.e. he’s quite touchy-feely). if someone were to pursue him romantically/sexually and he already likes them a lot, he’d do what they request if he thinks that it improves their bond.
70. What is your character’s biggest pet peeve?
People using doublespeak, especially if it’s for politics.
71. Describe how your character feels about the party’s current situation/objective/etc.
It’s a big job and he can’t even fathom how they’ll get there, but it has to be done and it seems like he and his companions are the ones who need to do it, so he’ll just have to take things one step at a time.
72. Who in the party would your character trust the most to keep an important secret?
Niyooshan - he trusts the man to exercise discretion. Amalli means well but tends to run her mouth.
73. If your character knew that they were going to die in a month, how would they spend the rest of their life?
Write heartfelt letters to his friends and family, write strongly-worded letters to his Church and the authorities-that-be, and do his best to further his and his allies’ mission.
74. What makes your character feel safe?
A nice home-cooked meal, a warm fire, knowing people he trusts and loves are close by.
75. If your character had the chance to rename the party/give the party a name, no questions asked, what would it be?
“Not-Rebels”. Because they’re totally not rebels with massive bounties on their heads.
76. What memory does your character want to forget the most?
Technically he’s already forgotten it - the process by which his soul was bound to an ancient Azlanti wraith was traumatic enough that his memory of it is now repressed.
For his intact memories, he’d very much like to forget about the time he watched a child be incinerated in an instant, or the time he’s had to mercy-kill a group of innocents who’d been afflicted by the curse of undeath... or maybe he doesn’t because he thinks he needs to carry his “mistakes” with him.
77. If your character had to multiclass into a class they currently aren’t the next time they level up, what would it be and what reason would they have for doing so?
Fighter - so he can be more flexible with gear, be more effective at controlling the battle, and - most importantly - use tower shields.
78. What television/book/video game/etc. character would your character be best friends with? (Or: what media character is your character the most influenced by/similar to?
Take all the usual Knight Templar tropes and subvert them.
Additionally, my GM compares him to Anders of the Dragon Age franchise. I created Amur way before I knew who Anders was, and some of the similarities are frankly uncanny.
79. What unusual talents does your character possess?
High pain tolerance, and (is this a talent?) diminished self-preservation instincts.
80. How does your character feel about receiving/giving orders? Are they more of a leader, or a follower?
He’s much happier receiving orders than giving them, but he can’t help but question or even defy those he considers immoral. He wants to be a follower but is ultimately too headstrong and impulsive to be a good one.
81. What does your character’s name represent to them? (Or: why as a player did you choose your character’s name?)
His name is one (of the few) ties he has with his birth family, but he’s fine if he has to use a different name temporarily for a good reason.
I named him after the Amur River. As a geomorphologist I sometimes name my OCs after landform features. All my original PCs and NPCs in this universe are named after real-world rivers.
82. Is your character more of an introvert, or an extrovert?
Introvert.
83. How far is your character willing to go to pursue the “greater good”? Do they believe in a greater good at all?
He believes in the greater good, he just doesn’t believe in having to sacrifice innocent individuals to pursue it.
84. What does your character want to be remembered by?
Kindness and compassion.
85. What would be your character’s major in college?
Humanities - more precisely, something along the lines of Anthropology or Cultural Studies.
86. Does your character consider themselves a hero, villain, or something else?
Something else - he sees himself as one who helps someone else become a hero, or turns someone away from villainy.
87. What major arcana tarot card best represents your character?
Strength.
88. Where does your character see themselves in 20 years?
Dead. Still travelling around, with or without a name, finding trouble, and doing whatever needs to be done.
89. What is your character’s relationship with magic? Are they scared of it, wish to know more about it, indifferent to it?
To him, in general magic is just another ability or talent, as much as someone can be gifted physically, intellectually, or artistically. His own magic is granted by his deity, so he sees it as a blessing and not really belonging to him.
90. Who is your character’s biggest rival?
He doesn’t consider anyone his rival, but he does have a nemesis of sorts by the name of Geminus Nero Rugatonn. The guy’s been hounding him and his friends since something like level 6.
91. What is your character’s guiltiest pleasure?
Playing with cats.
92. What does your character hope for the afterlife?
To have his soul intact and actually see Sarenrae in all her glory, and to meet those he thinks he’s failed and apologise to them.
93. Who in the party does your character trust the least?
At this point, Mawari - she’s only just joined them, is a witch with creepy curses and hexes, and is their ally only because their goals align with her being a traitor to the Jade Regent.
94. What is your character’s biggest flaw?
Impulsiveness, and being a bleeding heart who is way too forgiving.
95. How did your character learn the languages that they speak?
TALDANE: His first language, and the common tongue across most of the Inner Sea region.
TERRAN: Learned it as part of the curriculum in his apprentice days. Why he didn’t pick something less obscure is anyone’s guess. Maybe he just doesn’t want to use it much.
NECRIL: Started to learn this after being possessed (?) by a wraith.
TIAN: The common tongue in the continent of the current campaign, Tian Xia.
MINKAI: The local tongue in the country of the current campaign, Minkai.
SIGN LANGUAGE: Learned this after Niyooshan lost his speech.
96. What is your character’s favourite school of magic/type of weaponry?
MAGIC: Healing (conjuration) and harm-negating spells (abjuration).
WEAPONRY: Do shields count?
97. What is most important to your character: health, wealth, or happiness?
Happiness.
98. What advice would your character give to a younger version of themselves?
“Don’t ignore the urging of your conscience; act on it. It’s better to regret what you’ve done than what you haven’t.”
99. Are there any social or political issues your character feels strongly about?
Any sort of persecution or discrimination that is based on some neutral and often unchangeable part of someone’s identity, e.g. being slaves, low-born, or of a particular race.
100. What, currently, is your character the most curious about?
What part he has to play and how he will end up by the end of this whole deal involving nations, religions, legacies, curses, spirits, gods, and Great Old Ones.

Note
1-100 on the DnD questions, for Deah >:3
Wow you're sure as hell fishing to kill me huh xD
I'll answer these under a read more cuz FUCK. I'll also try to keep it spoiler free -- I may mention stuff that hasn't come up in game but it would be stuff that might not ever come up explicitly anyway. Everything else has either been said or can be gleaned.
If your character wasn’t an adventurer, what livelihood would they lead
Probably what she had been doing -- being a pirate
Who in the party would your character trust the most with their life
Probably Maddie and/or Gael. Maddie is a divine soul sorcerer and probably the one Deah is closest to. Gael is our barbarian/paladin who is probably the emotional backbone of the group? He is very earnest and genuine, and also hits like a brick house.
What are your character’s core moral beliefs?
[Brushes off notes I made like a year ago] Promises must be kept, and debts one day fulfilled. Clean up the messes you made. Family is more important than self. Survival means not letting the past define you. (Not all morals but those are her ideals)
What relationship does your character have with their parents and siblings?
She has a twin brother, whom she would die for. Their relationship used to be solid, but theyve currently broken apart somewhat due to lies and building tension, and the brother needing to go his own way. She is still very broken up about it. Her parents are both dead, and she has not spoken of much closeness there, but describes them as "they tried their best." Her pirate captain was basically a surrogate father for her teenage years and onward until their separation, and she... misses him.
Does your character have any biases for or against certain races?
Not really. She probably doesnt trust ratfolk based on where she grew up, but beyond that? If you're good, you're good.
What is your character’s opinion on nobility? On authority? (: fuck em. She is... shall we say... less inclined to help rich people.
Describe your character’s current appearance: clothes, armor, scars they’ve picked up along the journey, etc.
She's grown out her undercut so she has an asymmetrical style, one side of her head buzzed. She is still wearing her bright red pirate coat, but now wears a dark brown vest with purple accents underneath, as well as a long black sleeve to cover magical scars she received when she accepted a warlock pact with the hunter god. Also covering her scars is a gauntlet made by Maddie, so that they can't be detected by Detect Good and Evil and such.
What location encountered in the campaign has your character felt the most “at home” in, or just generally liked the most?
Sometimes she still thinks about that nap she had on the beach at a random island they had stopped at to restock on food.
What deity, if any, does your character worship? What’s their opinion on other people’s worship?
As i mentioned, she has a pact with the hunter god, Erastil. She does not worship him. In fact, she rather doesnt like gods much. She doesnt really understand other worshippers, but if they're not hurting anyone with it she doesn't really care. Their worship doesnt affect her.
If your character had time to pick up any artisan’s tools, game set, instrument, etc., what would it be?
Let's get this binch some navigator's tools finally!
Describe your character’s current relationship with the player character sitting to your right.
We are entirely online so we don't really have table seating. Based on the order of our nicknames in discord though, that would be... Haru, our new kitsune Oracle who joined us to fill a gap while some other players went on hiatus. Deah is uncertain about him, and she is generally pretty wary about strangers in her party, but he is useful. Their relationship is not deep by any means tbh.
What is your character’s current goal, summed up in one sentence?
Stop the lord of the sea, and stop Aleksander.
Does your character ever want to “settle down” with a spouse, children, house, etc.?
;) you'll have to ask her
Has your character ever been in love?
Before the campaign, certainly not. She's hella ace, and doesn't open up easily, so she's got some confusing feelings right now for Maddie ;)
What battle in the campaign has been most memorable to your character
The battle against Tokt, since this was the battle that she was able to help save a person from being possessed by a demon -- something she figured out beforehand and convinced her team about.
If your character wasn’t whatever class they are, what would they be instead?
I mean... probably a fighter???? Or maybe a full warlock, if she was desperate enough.
What is your character’s favorite season?
Probably the fall? Sailing is usually good during that time, plus the harvest is coming in on land, so there's a lot of fresh food.
What would your character’s Zodiac sign be, following stereotypical astrology?
She would be an Aries based on her birthday! Our homebrew world just uses "Season Day" as time markers, with 90 days each season. She was born on Spring 12, which would translate to the first week of April.
Where in the world does your character most want to visit?
She's been all over as an adventurer and a sailor. The place she'd like to visit the most is one she doesn't know about -- somewhere important to her old captain.
What is the biggest mistake your character has ever made?
Deah would maybe even say joining the pirates. It was the happiest she'd ever been, but it led her brother to a path he regrets and feels pain over, and she feels a... bit guilty about that.
Does your character have any noticeable scars? If so, what are their stories?
The only scars she has are from her pact to Erastil. She hides them, though. She's not ashamed of them, but she likes to keep them to herself... she's private like that.
What animal best represents your character?
I always liken her to a hawk, especially a sea hawk. In some ways she’s like a cobra or a porcupine too -- kind of hard to get close to!
If your character could go back in time and change one thing about their life, what would it be?
😬
Which other player character does your character find themselves having the most in common with?
I don't know about most in common, really, but she gets along easiest with Ro, our halfling. Their banter is 👌🏻👌🏻👌🏻. Honestly though? She probably has the most in common with Mercy, our tiefling fighter/paladin.
Does your character regret any particular choice the party has made?
She probably regrets the party not staying behind in a certain town after a powerful enemy escaped. They thought the immediate threat had been dealt with and that another team from their guild could keep watch over the town, but then that team got surprised by an undead and two of them died. She feels at least partially responsible for that.
What would your character say their best trait would be?
Her ability to perceive and track things. She has the observant feat plus the invocation that lets her see through even magical darkness!
What is your character’s greatest fear? Deep, irrational?
Being abandoned.
What is currently motivating your character to stay with the party?
No where else to go, really. Like, sure, she likes at least most of them and they've been through a lot!!! And she DOES you know, feel like this is a stable job, and she does feel good helping people. But... she really does have no where else to go. :(
What are your character’s hobbies and interests outside of their class?
She does enjoy reading, though she's a little slow. Her favorite books are detective/mystery novels! She also sometimes likes to practice magic tricks (like... sleight of hand stuff). And technically this isnt outside of her class, but she really does enjoy training. Let's her burn off steam.
What would most people think when they first see your character?
Pretty little waif, but that resting bitch face looks like she will cut me of I even say hello (this is by design).
What stereotypical group role does your character play in the party? (The Mom, the Mess, the Comic Relief, etc. Optionally: What role would your character play in the “Five Man Band” structure?)
[Googles five man band] probably Lancer. Initially she wanted to be the Leader type but with the group dynamics and her own insecurities and issues, that isnt really truly possible for her. But she still tries to lead...
What is your character the most insecure about?
:)
What person does your character admire most?
Her old ship captain. Her DEAD ship captain :(
What does your character admire and dislike the most about the player character sitting to your left?
She admires maddie's strength and kindness (and to a degree, innocence). Maddie's cooking skills. Maddie's family. She dislikes how nervous/anxious and possibly depressed Maddie can get :c
Why is your character’s lowest stat their lowest (the in-character reason, not “because there’s no reason for a wizard to have 16 strength, duh”)?
Her lowest stat is strength, and her second lowest is constitution. This is because she grew up poor, and was at times starving and definitely malnourished. Once she was om the pirate ship, she was regularly fed though.
What would be your character’s theme song/favorite band/favorite genre of music?
I've been saying if she was in modern time, her favorite band would be Florence and the Machine. There's just something about the Florence sound that speaks to her. She'd definitely be into that kind of music, plus some heavier stuff leaning more towards metal or symphonic metal...
What stereotypical role would your character play in a high school AU/if they attended a normal high school? (Nerd, jock, bully, goth, etc.)
She's got the soul of a goth but the hobbies of a jock (in our team's college AU she's totally on the fencing and sailing teams). When I've drawn her in modern day she is usually wearing athleisure (capris leggings, loose tank top, sports bra, e.g.) but also it's mostly dark colors. She's Joth.
What treasure/item/artifact that your character has collected during the adventure is the most important to them?
Toby :) just kidding, the pseudodragon isn't an item!!! Specifically collected during the adventure, probably her force blade. Her brother had found it, but had given it to her, near the beginning of the adventure.
Is there any particular weapon, item, etc. that your character longs to find?
She's not really looking out for items, no.
Where does your character feel the most at home?
On the beach, on the ship. Specific locations to call home, she does finally feel like she has a stable place to call home in the patty's estate.
Does your character care about how they’re perceived by others? How do they change themselves to fit in with other people?
She's worn disguises and fake names before, but that's mostly to protect herself during her pirate years. She doesn't care a whole lot, but she does want to appear somewhat intimidating so that unsavoury people won't approach her LMAO. But she also wants to be seen as nice by children and poor folk, so she does soften a bit when they're around.
What does your character think is the true meaning of life?
Happiness. Safety. Survival. Family/community.
What is your character’s scent? (Bonus points for a description that sounds like it could be from a bad [or awesome] fanfic.)
She's always got a slight scent of salt on her, reminding you just a bit of the sea. For herself, she prefers to just smell... clean, so there's a fresher floral scent lingering...
Does your character think more with their heart or their brain?
She tries to think more with her brain but sometimes the bottled up emotions get to be a bit much.
What is your character’s most recent or frequent nightmare?
BEING. ABANDONED.
What opinion does your character have on [CERTAIN ESTABLISHED GROUPS/AUTHORITIES IN THE GAME WORLD]? (Dragonmarked Houses, royal crown, etc.)
She hates (most) rich people and used to be a pirate, so you can kind of figure it out.
How did your character spend their childhood? Where did they grow up/who were their childhood friends?
:(
What aspect of your character’s future are they most curious about? (If they could know one thing about the future, what would it be?)
I dunno man she is just taking things one step at a time.
What colors are associated with your character?
Red is her primary color. She also uses blacks/dark grays and a light purple as an accent. She's using more brown now tho to represent her connection to the hunter god.
Who in the party would your character prioritize rescuing, in dire circumstances?
Maddie always. Then Ro. Then Gael. Haru would probably be up there because he is squishy and also mostly blind.
Is your character the most swayed by ethos, pathos, or logos?
A mix of pathos and logos is most effective on Deah. Logos probably most of all, but there are pathos buttons that hold away above all that... if you know which buttons to press.
If your character was granted a single use of Wish, what would they use it for?
Currently? To bring back her pirate captain. She knows its selfish but...
What is your character’s favorite spell? If they don’t use spells: what is their favorite personal weapon/combat maneuver/skill/etc.?
Her favorite spell is stab with rapier.
How does your character feel about keeping secrets from the rest of the party?
She keeps secrets pretty regularly! Basically if the party needs to know, then the secret should be shared. But if it doesnt really affect the group or something important, and the person doesnt want to share, then go ahead and keep the secret.
What type of creature in the world is your character the most intrigued by?
Dragons probably, at this point. Definitely an influence by me the player, haha, but it's buoyed by an early meeting with a particular dragon that sparked her interest.
When they were a child, what did your character want to be, or think they were going to be, when they grew up?
¯\_(ツ)_/¯ she didnt have life plans as a kid. She just wanted her and her brother to live.
The player character to your left admits that they’re passionately in love with your character. How would your character respond?
That's already happened LMAO. Deah didnt know how to react so her brain blur screened and she ran away from the situation for a bit.
If somebody (an NPC, someone from their backstory, etc.) your character trusts/loves asked your character to do something against the party’s best interest, who would they side with?
If it only involved herself, Deah would probably go do it. But if it was a huge net loss for the group, she wouldn't, if that makes sense? It's hard to make sweeping statements like that.
Does your character value their own best interest more than the party’s?
She values her own interest for sure, but she would prioritize the party's if one meant dunking on the other. She knows what it's like to sail with a tight knit crew; sometimes you sacrifice to make the group as a whole better/happier.
What decision would the party have to make in order for your character to consider splitting off from the group?
Oh gosh, uh.... I mean, if they decide to help her enemies (not likely to happen, there are a couple shared ones). If they don't let her do something she REALLY wants... I can't really think of anything specific.
How does your character imagine the way they will die?
Tragically.
What is your character’s greatest achievement?
Taming her pseudodragon ;w;
Is your character willing to risk the well-being of others in order to achieve their goal?
Hmm... not to a certain degree. Eh, probably not. She only really wants to risk herself, not others. Risking others doesn't give them the choice.
What is your character’s opinion on killing others?
She does it all the time!! But if they're defenseless or not fighting back, she won't.
What is your character’s favorite food? Beverage?
She really loves fresh baked bread!! As for beverage, uh.... I guess she'd like water with like, something fruity mixed in???
How generous is your character? Especially to those they don’t know?
To the poor and to kids? Very. Also, recently, she gave all of the money she got from a quest to a townsperson to help them rebuild their city a bit (secretly of course. Not even her team knows she did that, though maybe some of them suspect hahaha)
What is your character the most envious about, regarding anyone in the party?
Once again... probably most envious of Maddie!! She comes up a lot doesn't she ;P
The player character to your left and the player character to your right are both telling your character two different versions of the truth. Who does your character believe?
Maddie vs Haru? Shed probably lean towards Maddie :p
What is your character’s sexuality/relationship with sex?
I've described Deah as Panromantic Asexual. She is rather sex averse and has difficulty pinpointing romantic feelings as well, being rather prickly at times.
What is your character’s biggest pet peeve?
When people try to dig into something she doesn't want to share at the moment.
Describe how your character feels about the party’s current situation/objective/etc.
The current objective/situation involves her backstory, so you'll see soon ;)
Who in the party would your character trust the most to keep an important secret?
Maddie of course! She trusts Gael, but not with secrets. Similarly, she trusts Mercy to hold an oath to the best of her ability, but not if a secret comes up -- same with Rudi. Ro does what she wants LMAO and she isnt telling Haru anything personal atm.
If your character knew that they were going to die in a month, how would they spend the rest of their life?
I dont want to think about that question and neither does Deah
What makes your character feel safe?
Having her weapons. Having her pact/her pact scars.
If your character had the chance to rename the party/give the party a name, no questions asked, what would it be?
Nah, she likes Fortune's Blades
What memory does your character want to forget the most?
Cal leaving. It's probably her most painful memory.
If your character had to multiclass into a class they currently aren’t the next time they level up, what would it be and what reason would they have for doing so?
She's already multi classed and her reasons for becoming a warlock are kind of muddied. She explained them initially but maaaaybe wasn't 100% truthful. If she had to pick a third, probably uh.... fighter?????
What television/book/video game/etc. character would your character be best friends with? (Or: what media character is your character the most influenced by/similar to?)
I would HOPE she would be friends with Elizabeth Swan (: but idk lol
What unusual talents does your character possess?
Sharp senses and magic tricks.
How does your character feel about receiving/giving orders? Are they more of a leader, or a follower?
It's rather situational. She tries to be a leader type, but she also realizes she's not at the top of the leader chain (and, with her party, at times different people take the head, so it's almost more consult-y like).
What does your character’s name represent to them? (Or: why as a player did you choose your character’s name?)
The player of Cal, her brother, chose his name first from a generator. I like to construct my names sometimes from different name elements, so I made hers to match the sound of her twin's (that is, make it sound like it came from the same language). Her name is constructed of "Feld-" (field) and "-Deah" (dye) so her first name translates roughly to "field of dye." Her original last name is Shearwater, which is a real life sea bird but also follows the traditional elven naming convention (their dad was an elf). She never felt much of an attachment to her last name. She recently changed her last name to Blackheart, which was the moniker of her captain.
Is your character more of an introvert, or an extrovert?
Introvert for sure
How far is your character willing to go to pursue the “greater good”? Do they believe in a greater good at all?
She would go as far as she needs to, but would never force others to make that same decision.
What does your character want to be remembered by?
At one point she thought she would eventually be a famous pirate captain. But mostly I think she just wants to be remembered by those who love her and by those she helped...
What would be your character’s major in college?
Fuck, uh... I had discussed this before.... I think I made her pre-law??? Math major???
Does your character consider themselves a hero, villain, or something else?
Something else. She doesn't really care about that, she's just Being.
What major arcana tarot card best represents your character?
I believe last it was discussed I had picked the Chariot for her.
Where does your character see themselves in 20 years?
If not dead from adventuring, then settled somewhere nice, hopefully...
What is your character’s relationship with magic? Are they scared of it, wish to know more about it, indifferent to it?
For a long time she was the Sokka of the group, the only non-magic user. Then she got her pact. She's still kind of awkward about it, and at times really doesn't like magic, but she sees it as a tool. A means to an end.
Who is your character’s biggest rival?
Rival?????? I guess Morrigan tbh??? Cuz a rival isn't an enemy, and she had a thing going with Morrigan (her player is on hiatus tho). In some ways she rivals Mercy too. A dance of similarities and differences.
What is your character’s guiltiest pleasure?
Fine, beautiful dresses. She doesn't own any, because it's a waste of money, but.... she wants them. Secretly.
What does your character hope for the afterlife?
Peace and rest.
Who in the party does your character trust the least?
Haru, currently, simply by virtue of being new.
What is your character’s biggest flaw?
BIGGEST flaw???? Uhhhmmm..... Her secrecy probably. Her tendency to run away from really big, painful problems, to bottle up her emotions around that until everything just gets worse.
How did your character learn the languages that they speak?
Common, prucrician and Elvish she learned just growing up. Deep, she just... mysteriously knows. Doesn't know why she can speak it. Draconic she learned at first from Rudi, and then from a dragonborn NPC to finish her lessons during a timeskip.
What is your character’s favorite school of magic/type of weaponry?
Rapier
What is most important to your character: health, wealth, or happiness?
Why must she choose? Wealth, because that brings health and happiness in her eyes. (Because money buys food and when you have food.....)
What advice would your character give to a younger version of themselves?
I know it's hard, but open up more. You don't have to keep it to yourself to protect others. Your brother can be your friend as well... you don't have to just keep holding yourself back for your friends and family.
Are there any social or political issues your character feels strongly about?
She doesn't feel super strongly about politics, having been a pirate. She feels strongly about protecting children and poor though, as I've mentioned.
What, currently, is your character the most curious about?
The afterlife. Erastil, but specifically just that one god. Her ship captain.

ALL for crown.
I LOVE YOU
If your character wasn’t an adventurer, what livelihood would they lead?
Wouldn’t you want to know
Who in the party would your character trust the most with their life?
For now I can’t say for sure? From the ones he currently knows it’s hard to tell bc he trusts Love in a Personal Way but is lowkey convinced he’d sell him to Satan for a corn chip. And Gank seems p trustworthy in that regard but they have only briefly met each other
What are your character’s core moral beliefs?
No one gets to control or take away someone else’s autonomy
What relationship does your character have with their parents and siblings?
Parents? Hate ‘em. Siblings? H
Does your character have any biases for or against certain races?
Eeh, I don’t think so
What is your character’s opinion on nobility? On authority?
Take a wild guess ksvjfnskjv
He doesn’t think someone having authority is inherently bad but he hates every person in authority he’s ever known of so his opinion has been formed based on that
Describe your character’s current appearance: clothes, armor, scars they’ve picked up along the journey, etc.
I’m lazy. You know what she looks like
What location encountered in the campaign has your character felt the most “at home” in, or just generally liked the most?
Campaign hasn’t started yet so I can’t say anything about which locations visited she’s liked! She feels very comfortable at the spot we’re starting at tho
What deity, if any, does your character worship? What’s their opinion on other people’s worship?
Caenrys babey. She’s a bit weirded out by people who dedicate themselves to organized religion but in general she doesn’t stick her nose in others’ religious business
If your character had time to pick up any artisan’s tools, game set, instrument, etc., what would it be?
Artisan’s tools: I think he’d like glassblowing! Woodworking is cool too
Game set: playing cards probably
I don’t think he’s rlly interested in music as something he himself might perform vkjfnfksjn
Learning how to use a poisoner’s kit could be fun
Describe your character’s current relationship with the player character sitting to your right.
I’m not sitting next to anyone so I rolled for it and got Gank (@prophe-seer‘s character)
Crown likes Gank a lot! They only met like, once but they rlly got along. She feels a bit bad for them bc they seemed to think she was rlly nice and instead of considering she Might genuinely be nice she jumped to “oh shit the bar is fucking underground for this guy” skvjfnksjfvn. So she’s surprisingly attached. She wants them to have an actual friend bc it seems like they need it
What is your character’s current goal, summed up in one sentence?
I’m headed straight for the castle
Does your character ever want to “settle down” with a spouse, children, house, etc.?
Currently, no. She has a lot of dangerous shit to do and is too caught up on being A Free Spirit That Actually Gets To See The World to like,, consider settling down. And she hasn’t given any thought to what life she’ll have after her goals have been fulfilled.
But I’ve actually given some thought to this and I think she wants to make a family one day. Idk if it’ll include children (probably adopting older “problem” children tbh) or a spouse but she definitely wants to settle down with at least one pet
Has your character ever been in love?

Why is your character’s lowest stat their lowest (the in-character reason, not “because there’s no reason for a wizard to have 16 strength, duh”)?
Both int and wis are at a -2!
Wisdom: he wasn’t uh. raised in a way where he rlly got to learn the ways of people’s minds, or do anything but repress his own feelings. and once he was out on his own he was so focused on being a reckless fool he never even tried to change that
Intelligence: He has big adhd and always had a hard time learning. Instead of being supported he was yelled at and punished for stupidity. He retaliated by refusing to keep trying. So now he’s dumb
What would be your character’s theme song/favorite band/favorite genre of music?
I have an entire playlist for him please look at it I worked so hard on it-

If somebody (an NPC, someone from their backstory, etc.) your character trusts/loves asked your character to do something against the party’s best interest, who would they side with?

DnD Question Masterpost: Opal
It’s gunna get long fam
If your character wasn’t an adventurer, what livelihood would they lead?
Opal would continue to work as a grave digger and traveling preacher, trying to spread the faith of Zemtris, just with less looting and monster slaying. He’s honestly very happy with his current job, though he offered in waterdeep to also work as a coroner.
Who in the party would your character trust the most with their life?
Opal doesn’t really trust anyone with his life mostly because he likes to walk the line of death, and if its his time to go he would want to go at that point. In regards to what kind of person he trusts to protect him though, he is trustworthy of anyone that believes in his faith.
What are your character’s core moral beliefs?
Dream like you’ll live forever, live like you’ll die today. Take risks, be aware, be kind, be helpful.
What relationship does your character have with their parents and siblings?
Opal was adopted as a baby into a tribe of Elves, with his parents and several siblings. He loved them all very much, and though he has now been banished from his tribe for reasons, he harbors no ill will towards them and also still loves them very much.
Does your character have any biases for or against certain races?
Opal has never canonically seen other Firbolg, and so is always very excited and happy when he encounters one, so he is biased for them. Otherwise he treats everyone equally, but he sometimes confuses smaller races for children, who he also loves, and sometimes treats them better because of it.
What is your character’s opinion on nobility? On authority?
Because he is a strange religious man who just walked out of the woods one day, Opal has practically no understanding of nobility or proper authority on a fundamental level. He respects the rules of the place he is in but doesn’t really “get” it.
Describe your character’s current appearance: clothes, armor, scars they’ve picked up along the journey, etc.
Opal is a blueish Firbolg with most of his fur burned off and patchy, covered in his namesake- opalescent scars all over his body. He changes his eye color often but likes pink and yellow eyes, and has about shoulder length long dreadlocks that are very thick, sometimes with rings in them. He has no nose, and covers it with a band (or makeup, as he’s learning what that is) and always has his signature wide brimmed hat. He has collected various things from stuff that has died around him and hung it from his hat in little jars and such. He recently upgraded from his fully black drabby gravediggers coat to a more vibrant bluish purple jacket, often electing to not wear a shirt under it. He does however have a golden breastplate depicting him being hugged by the arms of Zemtris. He also got a few piercings, jewelry, and tattoos, including a necklace bearing Zemtris’ symbol.
What location encountered in the campaign has your character felt the most “at home” in, or just generally liked the most?
Opal finds the great city of Waterdeep to be so incredibly strange and wonderful at the same time. His favorite thing is the variety of people present in the city, though he finds it overly complicated.
What deity, if any, does your character worship? What’s their opinion on other people’s worship?
ZEMTRIS!!! His own personal god that he’s trying to start a religion for, he is The Opal Prophet by title. He loves meeting other religious folk but is not too knowing of other religions. There is one particular god however that he very much so dislikes. He doesn’t like gods that decide who lives and who dies. It’s easy to think Zemtris does this, but Opal believes that fate is in the hands of the mortals that bare it, rather than thrust upon them by gods.
If your character had time to pick up any artisan’s tools, game set, instrument, etc., what would it be?
Opal would want to learn how to properly play a string instrument like a guitar, lute, ukulele or something similar.
Describe your character’s current relationship with the player character sitting to your right.
uhh N/A because I dont sit at a table I’m sorry.
What is your character’s current goal, summed up in one sentence?
Spread the word of Zemtris.
Does your character ever want to “settle down” with a spouse, children, house, etc.?
He wants to find a place where he can build a great temple/chuch to Zemtris and live there and preach from there, considering that his home. Whether or not he wants a spouse and children depends on how his relationship with Zemtris evolves, as he considers them to be lovers.
Has your character ever been in love?
He has, and is! He is completely literally in love with Zemtris and considers them to be a couple.
What battle in the campaign has been most memorable to your character?
They were ambushed by goblins beneath the city, and he saw one of his new friends be struck with an arrow that he knows should have ended her life, but she did not die. He hesitated and did not heal her at the time. (I missed a game and Opal was being puppetted, a fellow player was struck with a sneak attack that was an instant kill, but since I wasn’t there to play Opal the DM ruled it unfair to kill her character outright when I wasn’t there to help)
If your character wasn’t whatever class they are, what would they be instead?
Opal probably would have wanted to be a druid if he was able to tap into natural magic, but if that continued to not work as it had been going, he possibly would have become a warlock. He wanted very desperately to connect to something.
What is your character’s favorite season?
Opal loves the Fall.
What would your character’s Zodiac sign be, following stereotypical astrology?
Opal is a Scorpio.
Where in the world does your character most want to visit?
Opal has always wanted to go to interesting locales that he has read about, such as the top of a great mountain or in a vast desert. He has seen the ocean but has never sailed, so that too.
What is the biggest mistake your character has ever made?
Trying to bring a dying man back to life when he was not ready.
Does your character have any noticeable scars? If so, what are their stories?
Opal is covered in special burn scars from when a group of people tried to burn him to death (and succeeded?) in his own church. They are opalescent, which is where Opal took the name. Two of these burns are perfect handprints on his back like small wings, which he believes was Zemtris protecting him.
What animal best represents your character?
Opal would say a mouse, I would say an owl. Creepy how one hunts the other.
If your character could go back in time and change one thing about their life, what would it be?
He would try harder to convince a group of people he was right.
Which other player character does your character find themselves having the most in common with?
If he was in the party proper it would be Siril no doubt, they’re both Firbolgs with a strange connection to life and death.
Does your character regret any particular choice the party has made?
In his waterdeep campaign Opal was very upset that the party killed a group of humanoid creatures instead of questioning them. (Opal has never cast an offensive spell on a humanoid creature)
What would your character say their best trait would be?
Opal believes that he’s very good at seeing through peoples masks, and getting to the core of their person. So, his insight basically.
What is your character’s greatest fear? Deep, irrational?
Opal has claustrophobia
What is currently motivating your character to stay with the party?
Opal stays with any party for as long as he thinks he needs to stay to help them through their personal problems.
What are your character’s hobbies and interests outside of their class?
Opal likes to sing, and he also enjoys woodcarving. He tries to read and write a lot to the best of his ability but he’s not too good at it.
What would most people think when they first see your character?
Incredibly weird looking. Tall, has glowing marks all over his body, no nose? Who the HELL is this guy.
What stereotypical group role does your character play in the party? (The Mom, the Mess, the Comic Relief, etc. Optionally: What role would your character play in the “Five Man Band” structure?)
Opal is the wise man, the advice giver and the listener.
What is your character the most insecure about?
He’s insecure about some of the nature of death, whether when he kills something it’s because he chose to or it was fated to die by his hand. He also is concerned about why -that thing- happens when he tries to raise the dead.
What person does your character admire most?
In his Waterdeep party, Miss Lilith. If he was in the other party proper, he’d admire Siril and Ida.
What does your character admire and dislike the most about the player character sitting to your left?
aaaaa I dont sit at a table N/A
Why is your character’s lowest stat their lowest (the in-character reason, not “because there’s no reason for a wizard to have 16 strength, duh”)?
Opal grew up in the woods with no formal education, just learning how to survive and be useful. 20 wisdom 8 intelligence babey.
What would be your character’s theme song/favorite band/favorite genre of music?
Dark country as a genre, but favorite in general is Barnes Courtney
What stereotypical role would your character play in a high school AU/if they attended a normal high school? (Nerd, jock, bully, goth, etc.)
I guess he’d be the guidance counselor? But if he had to be a student he’d be like...the dumb kid who’s just very nice? Is that a thing.
What treasure/item/artifact that your character has collected during the adventure is the most important to them?
His shield. It’s a cross section of a tree, but when he cut the tree down the symbol of zemtris was already emblazoned into the wood. He sees it as a sign that he is doing the right thing.
Is there any particular weapon, item, etc. that your character longs to find?
Opal doesn’t know too many legendary items, but I believe in a high level oneshot he had like a cloak of stars or something? He’d probably like a cool magical cloak, maybe a cloak of eyes or something.
Where does your character feel the most at home?
He has built a few churches in his life, and those always feel like home, but if not that then he does like to go back out into nature.
Does your character care about how they’re perceived by others? How do they change themselves to fit in with other people?
Opal is constantly observing social patterns and body language to make himself as approachable as possible. He will hunch down most of the time to not seem imposing, and all around tries to be as “likable” as he can despite his appearance. He will not change his appearance for someone to like him more, only if he wants to look different.
What does your character think is the true meaning of life?
Opal believes the meaning of life is to experience as much of life as possible, the good and the bad, and take risks. To be alive is to risk the possibility of it ending. But morally to be a good and helpful person.
What is your character’s scent? (Bonus points for a description that sounds like it could be from a bad [or awesome] fanfic.)
I always imagine Opal has mostly a sent of Petrichor (earth after it rains) but that behind that there is always a faint smell of decay or smokiness. He does like perfumes tho so if he’s wearing one of those...yknow he smells like perfume.
Does your character think more with their heart or their brain?
That brain dont do nothing ,he’s all heart babey
What is your character’s most recent or frequent nightmare?
The ceiling caving in on him.
What opinion does your character have on [CERTAIN ESTABLISHED GROUPS/AUTHORITIES IN THE GAME WORLD]? (Dragonmarked Houses, royal crown, etc.)
I’ll use other religions for example. He sees them as necessary, and probably true, but he believes that Zemtris is the best god to follow, and that he deserves to rise up above other faiths, specifically that of the Raven Queen.
How did your character spend their childhood? Where did they grow up/who were their childhood friends?
Opal grew up in the High Forest beneath the Star Mount in Faerun, with his adopted elvish family.
What aspect of your character’s future are they most curious about? (If they could know one thing about the future, what would it be?)
Where am I the most needed.
What colors are associated with your character?
Blue, Purple, Pink. Opalescent colors.
Who in the party would your character prioritize rescuing, in dire circumstances?
Opal will save everyone. Not try, will.
Is your character the most swayed by ethos, pathos, or logos?
Opal is completely Pathos, I’m quite sure.
If your character was granted a single use of Wish, what would they use it for?
Either to make sure one particular person lived forever, or that another particular person died and could never come back.
What is your character’s favorite spell? If they don’t use spells: what is their favorite personal weapon/combat maneuver/skill/etc.?
Opal has quite a unique signature use of cure wounds and inflict wounds, but he’d probably say his favorite is healing word bc he gives advice to heal people. The description for how he casts vampiric touch is also quite nice too.
How does your character feel about keeping secrets from the rest of the party?
Opal actually has written in his journal “A man who is nothing but a pile of secrets is incredibly dull”
What type of creature in the world is your character the most intrigued by?
The undead, he finds them fascinating in how they all are so different. If he learns what a lich is, that would be incredibly interesting.
When they were a child, what did your character want to be, or think they were going to be, when they grew up?
Opal tried to be a ranger and a druid of the tribe but neither worked. He was happy being a treecutter and woodcarver though! He was stronger than everyone else and he was very good at chopping down trees and working with wood.
The player character to your left admits that they’re passionately in love with your character. How would your character respond?
I can actually answer this bc it’s the same no matter what. Opal considers himself in a relationship with Zemtris, and so would not explore other relationships of that manner, romantic or sexual, unless Zemtris asked him to do so.
If somebody (an NPC, someone from their backstory, etc.) your character trusts/loves asked your character to do something against the party’s best interest, who would they side with?
If it was Zemtris he would do anything -unless- it’s conflicted with something Zemtris has told Opal to do before. Otherwise Opal probably would side with the party, theres a reason he’s with them now and the person from his past isn’t.
Does your character value their own best interest more than the party’s?
Opal definitely believes he puts everyone else ahead of himself, and its true to a point, but I know that Opal does all of that bc his goal is to spread the will of Zemtris, so helping others is helping himself.
What decision would the party have to make in order for your character to consider splitting off from the group?
Opal really doesn’t like someone that purposefully avoids his advice, and got angry with his party for, in his opinion “needlessly killing people”
How does your character imagine the way they will die?
Opal thinks he’s going to die every damn day and sure as hell hopes its an exciting one.
What is your character’s greatest achievement?
I think he really admires that he built his first church on that hill all by himself. He cut down the trees and dragged them up the hill and carved the planks and everything. It definitely took him a few years to do so.
Is your character willing to risk the well-being of others in order to achieve their goal?
That is his greatest conflict that he has not had to deal with yet.
What is your character’s opinion on killing others?
He understands it is necessary, but normally waits until they’ve tried to kill him before he goes for it. If the other party he is fighting is very aware that this is a battle to the death and they agree to it, he has no qualms with doing it.
What is your character’s favorite food? Beverage?
Opal hasn’t gotten to try many things, I think his favorite would be some kind of hearty stew like meal, something very filling, and as a drink probably some juice of an exotic fruit.
How generous is your character? Especially to those they don’t know?
Incredibly, he’ll give away everything he has that he doesn’t absolutely need.
What is your character the most envious about, regarding anyone in the party?
I think he’s envious of some other people’s natural charisma, he thinks its harder to get people to trust him sometimes.
The player character to your left and the player character to your right are both telling your character two different versions of the truth. Who does your character believe?
Opal would normally elect to believe both people to some extent? But I mean he could just do an insight check, he’s pretty good at it ;)
What is your character’s sexuality/relationship with sex?
So whenever I play opal I start him out as a cis man who considers himself in a relationship with Zemtris, romantic and sexual, however that works. If a character teaches Opal about being nonbinary, Opal identifies more with that, as he realizes he always considered Zemtris a “they” if Opal experiments mostly with other mortals however, he would identify as a male leaning pansexual. He would also be polyamorous.
What is your character’s biggest pet peeve?
People who use overly flowery language to complicate what should be a simple conversation. He hates making something simple more complicated than it has to be, and most of the time Opal thinks things can be more simple than they are.
Describe how your character feels about the party’s current situation/objective/etc.
Opal goes through any journey with the party in kind of...a strange aloofness. He’s just there to help until the story starts being about him, in which case he gets very very aware.
Who in the party would your character trust the most to keep an important secret?
Opal doesn’t like secrets much but understands they’re necessary sometimes. He’d trust whoever gave him a really good secret to keep. And since people tend to do that with Opal, he’d default to whoever gave it the most openly to trust him.
If your character knew that they were going to die in a month, how would they spend the rest of their life?
Absolutely nothing would change except that Opal would be incredibly excited and happy to see if it REALLY DOES happen this time.
What makes your character feel safe?
Gentle physical contact
If your character had the chance to rename the party/give the party a name, no questions asked, what would it be?
The Church of Zemtris? XD
What memory does your character want to forget the most?
He doesn’t really -want- to forget anything, even the bad memories. He thinks they are the reason he’s here today.
If your character had to multiclass into a class they currently aren’t the next time they level up, what would it be and what reason would they have for doing so?
Opal actually considered going...fighter? He was in waterdeep and thought that competing in the arena would get him a lot of people interested in him, which is a great segue into getting people to believe in Zemtris. So, learn to fight, get fame, get followers!
What television/book/video game/etc. character would your character be best friends with? (Or: what media character is your character the most influenced by/similar to?
God I think he actually would like cowboy media, and would like people like..John Marston? But also he’d like all the preachers. Maybe he’d like the show preacher. He’d also like...hellboy. If opal lived in modern times I dont think he’d stop watching movies.
What unusual talents does your character possess?
I dont know how unusual of a “talent” raising the dead is in DnD...it’s not a like “look I’m double jointed!!” kind of thing either...I dont know!!
How does your character feel about receiving/giving orders? Are they more of a leader, or a follower?
Opal believes you have to follow before you can lead. He will lead one day but that means he will follow today.
What does your character’s name represent to them? (Or: why as a player did you choose your character’s name?)
Opal is not Opals birth name, duh. His birth name given to him was Finley Lemnis, both variations of the infinity symbol. (Finley, Fin, Infinity) and its official name, the Lemniscate (Lemnis). Opal took the name Opal because of the Opalescent scars he received, and Opalized wood is the first signs he saw of Zemtris, so he calls himself The Opal Prophet, or just Opal for short.
Is your character more of an introvert, or an extrovert?
Very extroverted.
How far is your character willing to go to pursue the “greater good”? Do they believe in a greater good at all?
The greater good is everything.
What does your character want to be remembered by?
He wants to be remembered as the person that brought Zemtris to the world, he believes that would be a very good thing to do, and so he would be remembered as a very good person for doing it.
What would be your character’s major in college?
Psychology? Sociology? Something to work with people and figure out how they tick?
Does your character consider themselves a hero, villain, or something else?
Opal would say he’s just a man who’s trying to do the right thing.
What major arcana tarot card best represents your character?
...hanged man?
Where does your character see themselves in 20 years?
Doin the same shit he’s doing now or dead. Both are fine.
What is your character’s relationship with magic? Are they scared of it, wish to know more about it, indifferent to it?
Other forms of magic besides his own really interest him, he knows natural magic naturally (hah) as a firbolg, and he has clerical magic...but arcane magic really confuses and fascinates him.
Who is your character’s biggest rival?
Uh...self declared the Raven Queen?
What is your character’s guiltiest pleasure?
Hard to tell, I think he really likes gambling and if he actually started doing it he’d really like casual sex. But like theres also the fact that he really likes...dead things and gore? Is that a guilty pleasure? HE’S NOT A NECROPHILIAC but like he finds dead things and zombies and stuff...interesting. God is he a necrophilliac idk he’s a weird man
What does your character hope for the afterlife?
Hopes it’s exactly the same as life just goes on forever.
Who in the party does your character trust the least?
Opal distrusts anyone who dodges any kind of question or gives fruity answers instead of just being straight up with him.
What is your character’s biggest flaw?
He likes to make snap judgements about people, because he figures if he does that, then whether he’s right or wrong, their reaction to his snap judgement eliminates 50% of the possibilities about a person. This however is rude sometimes.
How did your character learn the languages that they speak?
I like to imagine Elvish is actually his first language, he knows giant...inherently by bloodline? Or Zemtris gifted him with the language of his bloodline? He learned sylvan in his training in the forest to try and be a druid, and the next language he would learn is celestial.
What is your character’s favorite school of magic/type of weaponry?
Necromancy- in my opinion healing magic should also count as necromancy bc it’s defined as “controlling the energies of life and death” but healing is evocation for some reason I dont know why.
What is most important to your character: health, wealth, or happiness?
Happiness above all else, then health, then wealth.
What advice would your character give to a younger version of themselves?
Listen to yourself as much as you listen to others.
Are there any social or political issues your character feels strongly about?
He’s...really bad at politics. He doesn’t like the class struggle of the poor vs the rich tho, he’s inherently a charitable person that would take care of the suffering.
What, currently, is your character the most curious about?
Will he live forever or will he die today?

DnD Question Masterpost: Pick
Here we go again
If your character wasn’t an adventurer, what livelihood would they lead?
Pick really enjoys playing the drums so he would have actually enjoyed being a performer like a bard or part of a band or something. Being a goblin probably makes that kind of hard though.
Who in the party would your character trust the most with their life?
I would say mostly Kai because Kai wouldn’t want anyone in the party to die he’s quite sure, but knows deep down someone like Ida would save him and that pisses him off. He wants to be responsible for himself and not a burden on someone else.
What are your character’s core moral beliefs?
I should help the people that help me, and I want to make sure that what happened to me never happens to anyone else ever again. He’s Chaotic Good I believe, so he’s more inclined to helping people but he’s very ‘do to others as what is done to you.’
What relationship does your character have with their parents and siblings?
Pick had a lot of siblings in his clan and probably didn’t know who his parents were? I always imagine that Goblins just kinda...breed a whole lot. In a way your whole clan is basically your family, but it’s very competitive, so he probably didn’t care for them really. There was however another goblin he ended up meeting named Sprout who was like a sister to him.
Does your character have any biases for or against certain races?
He has a particular bone to pick with half orcs and elves, and a very complicated view on humanity as they have been both the best and worst to him. Honestly a lot of the more normal races he is inherently...jealous of, I suppose? He likes the freaks, weirdos, or small folk, which thankfully covers most of the party.
What is your character’s opinion on nobility? On authority?
Fuuuuuuck that shit dude. The little people are gunna rise up and tear that shit down.
Describe your character’s current appearance: clothes, armor, scars they’ve picked up along the journey, etc.
Standing at about 3′6′’ Pick has a sort of cloak/jacket with short sleeves and a hood that’s kind of a grayish blue, and then down his arms is various bandage wrappings, then his iconic bright red gloves. Under everything he has his leather armor which is dark blue, almost black, with a few little vials slipped into sleeves.A tunic under the armor which is what he mostly wears when not wearing armor. Handaxes strapped onto the back of his armor in his belt hidden away, a belt, simple tight trousers and little boots with buckles and a dagger in it.
He has red tinted goggles and a scarf that he uses to hide his face when in town, and a strange big bundled up thing on his back at all times. He has yellowsh green skin, messy dark blue almost black hair, dagger like ears, snarled teeth, and a bat like nose with yellow eyes and red slit pupils. He has four fingers and toes, and a cow-like tail. His face is covered in dark green freckles and his whole body is covered with various scars, mostly on his palms and under arms, but also has a split lip and a large scar on his torso.
What location encountered in the campaign has your character felt the most “at home” in, or just generally liked the most?
I believe he and Anders may have spent some time in the town of Daggerford, or at least a small town near it, which Pick really enjoyed. The environment was nice and being close to the ocean was cool.
What deity, if any, does your character worship? What’s their opinion on other people’s worship?
Pick doesn’t care too much about the worship of gods by other people, but has a specific disdain for clerics and people who use healing magic, refusing to let it be used on him entirely. For himself, he takes a tip from game of thrones, “There is only one god and they are death, and what do we say to death? Not today.” That’s the majority of his faith, but he is at least a little spiritual.
If your character had time to pick up any artisan’s tools, game set, instrument, etc., what would it be?
He really likes his drums so I could see him maybe wanting to learn a new instrument, but he also would really like to take up sketching- not painters tools per se, but like little charcoal drawings perhaps. I think he’s mostly just unaware of what things you can learn otherwise I think he’d want to learn a lot! Music, tinkers tools, thieves tools, smithing? Sewing? He’d find it all interesting in the end.
What is your character’s current goal, summed up in one sentence?
Find him, and find him.
Does your character ever want to “settle down” with a spouse, children, house, etc.?
I think if Pick spent enough time thinking about it he’d realize that he does, but he needs to learn a few things first, he doesn’t know what it’s like to have a spouse and children really, he’d need someone to teach him what that’s like.
Has your character ever been in love?
I think he has but he doesn’t have a frame of reference for what love is.
What battle in the campaign has been most memorable to your character?
His introduction! Being introduced to the campaign as a pit fighter is great because you get to really play up the crowd, which includes your future party- and then I got chased by guards! haha, I’m in danger!
If your character wasn’t whatever class they are, what would they be instead?
Before Pick became a bloodhunter he was a different class! He would have been a Champion Fighter.
What is your character’s favorite season?
He likes the summer, the warmth is nice and it’s just the best choice in his mind out of the four. Spring has too much irritating pollen, winter is too cold, fall feels depressing. I suppose Pick is a sweet summer child.
What would your character’s Zodiac sign be, following stereotypical astrology?
Pick is a cancer
Where in the world does your character most want to visit?
He doesn’t know many places, he’s heard of cities like Waterdeep and Neverwinter which are interesting, and Baldur’s Gate has seemed kind of cool. But where he wants to visit he doesn’t know where it is, he’s looking for it.
What is the biggest mistake your character has ever made?
He wasn’t strong enough.
Does your character have any noticeable scars? If so, what are their stories?
Covered in scars all over his body, like a split lip and various other wounds (probably has torn up ears, etc) but the worthwhile story ones are:
-Cuts on his palms and arms from using his blood rites, and also emotional issues
-Scars on the back of his hands that he wont show anyone
-A wound on his torso from his time with Anders, either a bite mark or puncture wound
What animal best represents your character?
A big cat like a lion or tiger that you would see in the zoo.
If your character could go back in time and change one thing about their life, what would it be?
Not have gotten fucking caught.
Which other player character does your character find themselves having the most in common with?
He see’s a lot of himself in Jin’s personality, and in Ida for other reasons.
Does your character regret any particular choice the party has made?
Haven’t spent much time with the party but he fears staying in Baldur’s Gate for a few extra days might bite them in the ass.
What would your character say their best trait would be?
His tenacity probably. The boy doesn’t know when to quit, in a fight or in other areas, he’ll keep pushing and pushing. If someone is asking him to back off though that’s a different story and he will.
What is your character’s greatest fear? Deep, irrational?
Pick cannot stand silence for too long, especially for sleeping, there needs to be noise, and so he normally absentmindedly is playing his drums in like a stimming way or even like an OCD tendency. He also doesn’t like closed off spaces.
What is currently motivating your character to stay with the party?
He was told to find them, basically, by someone he trusts.
What are your character’s hobbies and interests outside of their class?
He really does enjoy playing his drum, it makes him happy in a way that fighting doesn’t. Even if he’s not an artist he also likes to draw. He also personally loves to collect things like badges and medals, signs of authority. He finds it funny.
What would most people think when they first see your character?
What the fuck is this little angry man (if disguised) or maybe “Oh fuck a goblin?”
What stereotypical group role does your character play in the party? (The Mom, the Mess, the Comic Relief, etc. Optionally: What role would your character play in the “Five Man Band” structure?)
I guess right now he’s the guy that’s...forcing everyone to get their shit out, but he’s also kinda the loose cannon spitfire to accompany Jin.
What is your character the most insecure about?
He knows he’s inherently aggressive and thereby normally unlikable. He’s aware that he like talks to much and is kinda brazen and out there and sometimes he wishes he could like...cool it for a hot second.
What person does your character admire most?
Anders. It’s no question.
Why is your character’s lowest stat their lowest (the in-character reason, not “because there’s no reason for a wizard to have 16 strength, duh”)?
I made Pick’s lowest stat charisma because while I think he has a charismatic way of speaking he’s also meant to come off as kind of graty and annoying because he’s so IN YOUR FACE about things, that and the fact that as a goblin I dont see him as being particularly attractive, and so puts people off just based on his race alone.
What would be your character’s theme song/favorite band/favorite genre of music?
Hard rock or punk music, and anything with some really sick drum riffs. I think he could like anyone from Muse to AC/DC
What stereotypical role would your character play in a high school AU/if they attended a normal high school? (Nerd, jock, bully, goth, etc.)
He’s kind of jocky, like I can see him being sporty but almost...picked on by the other jocks because of his size? He might also be like the “bad boy”
What treasure/item/artifact that your character has collected during the adventure is the most important to them?
The thing on his back for sure, that he keeps all bundled up.
Is there any particular weapon, item, etc. that your character longs to find?
He’d love to find something that could change how he looks like a hat of disguise ( that he doesn’t know the party has) or just something that allows him to...be different visually I guess. In terms of weapons I mean I think he’d love any kind of badass sounding weapon, like a sword that catches on fire. Or a sentient weapon, he’d think that’s SUPER COOL.
Where does your character feel the most at home?
In a tent in the middle of the woods by the campfire with Anders.
Does your character care about how they’re perceived by others? How do they change themselves to fit in with other people?
He both really cares about it and really doesn’t. He used to have some resentment issues of like “I wish I wasn’t a goblin” but Anders tried to squash that feeling in him and it mostly worked. He is trying to love himself but also I think feels he’s incapable of like...getting actual love from someone bc he’s a goblin.
What does your character think is the true meaning of life?
He was asked that a while ago and he’s still trying to figure it out before he meets that person again.
What is your character’s scent? (Bonus points for a description that sounds like it could be from a bad [or awesome] fanfic.)
God he probably smells disgusting. He doesn’t really bathe much and he’s all dirty and covered in dried blood and other shit...he probably smells really bad and smells a lot like gore or blood.
Does your character think more with their heart or their brain?
He would say he thinks with his gut, but with that not an option I’d default to heart.
What is your character’s most recent or frequent nightmare?
Being back in that place again.
What opinion does your character have on [CERTAIN ESTABLISHED GROUPS/AUTHORITIES IN THE GAME WORLD]? (Dragonmarked Houses, royal crown, etc.)
Pick has learned that there are certain power structures that are enjoyed by the elites of society that he really, really hates. They dont stand for good things and only seek to exploit, and he wants that to end, mostly through him committing a lot of violence on some people.
How did your character spend their childhood? Where did they grow up/who were their childhood friends?
Pick grew up in the north with his goblin clan, though most of his memories from that time aren’t super well known. A lot of them were his siblings, cousins etc, and he was regarded with a little respect as he was a bit smarter than the average goblin, so he was good at trapping and hunting. The rest is a blur.
What aspect of your character’s future are they most curious about? (If they could know one thing about the future, what would it be?)
Where the fuck is he.
What colors are associated with your character?
Red red red, and like faded steel grays and blues.
Who in the party would your character prioritize rescuing, in dire circumstances?
Probably Kai or Siril, but more in a stand in between them and an enemy rather than like, pulling them out of a burning building.
Is your character the most swayed by ethos, pathos, or logos?
Somewhere between pathos and ethos but mostly ethos, he wouldn’t really speak on things that weren’t in his knowledge base.
If your character was granted a single use of Wish, what would they use it for?
God I dont know if one use of wish is enough. I suppose he’d get started by using it to finish the task that was given to him.
What is your character’s favorite spell? If they don’t use spells: what is their favorite personal weapon/combat maneuver/skill/etc.?
He only uses it as a last resort, and it hasn’t come to that yet.
How does your character feel about keeping secrets from the rest of the party?
Pick fucking hates secrets. He wants everyone’s shit out and in the open including his own as soon as possible because he needs to know if they can help him or not.
What type of creature in the world is your character the most intrigued by?
Since his becoming a blood hunter, which he doesn’t really know that’s what he is, he’s found himself drawn to their specific quarries, and he’s curious about why that is. Things like fey, fiends, etc.
When they were a child, what did your character want to be, or think they were going to be, when they grew up?
Pick dreamed of being the “leader” but figured he’d die way before that happened.
The player character to your left admits that they’re passionately in love with your character. How would your character respond?
Doesn’t matter who it is because clearly you’re just making a joke at him.
If somebody (an NPC, someone from their backstory, etc.) your character trusts/loves asked your character to do something against the party’s best interest, who would they side with?
Oh he’d 100% go with the person from his past because he’s only with the party to get back to them. He’s just not been with the party long enough to care.
Does your character value their own best interest more than the party’s?
Most definitely, he just met them and I think unless things get real serious real fast it will be that way for a while.
What decision would the party have to make in order for your character to consider splitting off from the group?
Not respecting the boundaries he set, or doing to someone what was done to him.
How does your character imagine the way they will die?
Right now he’s holding on to the fact that he can’t, and wont, and will go kicking and screaming against a God if he has to to not.
What is your character’s greatest achievement?
Surviving, through everything. Being a champion when he was supposed to be the fodder.
Is your character willing to risk the well-being of others in order to achieve their goal?
Yeah I think he’d consider it the greater good.
What is your character’s opinion on killing others?
There’s some people that really need to die like right now, no issue with killing whatsoever.
What is your character’s favorite food? Beverage?
I think he’d like something savory over something sweet, definitely something nice and buttery like a really good corn on the cob.
How generous is your character? Especially to those they don’t know?
His twitch instinct is to be an asshole, and then immediately feel bad and try to do something nice and be giving. He was told that the thing you do second is who you really are, and your gut reaction is what you were taught. He’s trying to reteach himself.
What is your character the most envious about, regarding anyone in the party?
How someone can have so much more than him and not even understand how good they had it, and then still seem so upset.
The player character to your left and the player character to your right are both telling your character two different versions of the truth. Who does your character believe?
Whatever version of the story is more exciting or funny.
What is your character’s sexuality/relationship with sex?
I think sex to him is a very like...animalistic instinctual thing? Kinda just by nature of being a goblin I think he really feels the need to have sex in that sake. But also I think sex might have been messed up in his brain, and so now he’s just all confused about it. He needs someone to teach him what healthy sexual experiences are. If he explored that he would discover he is probably homosexual.
What is your character’s biggest pet peeve?
Someone who always thinks they know the best thing to do, a self appointed leader. Someone who writes off others.
Describe how your character feels about the party’s current situation/objective/etc.
What exactly are you all doing?? Do you actually want me here?? Why are you all so dang secretive even with each other, how the fuck is this going to work.
Who in the party would your character trust the most to keep an important secret?
Siril, I think of the percy quote “Your secret is safe with my indifference” and I think that’s just how Siril would treat a secret.
If your character knew that they were going to die in a month, how would they spend the rest of their life?
He’d be doubling down on what he has to do because now theres a time limit put on it. Or he’d have to find someone he trusted real fast to get them to do it. He’d also probably be crying a lot.
What makes your character feel safe?
An open space, being able to choose where he can go at any given moment.
If your character had the chance to rename the party/give the party a name, no questions asked, what would it be?
The Breakfast Club
What memory does your character want to forget the most?
I think it was too long to be able to forget all of it, but lets go with the first night.
If your character had to multiclass into a class they currently aren’t the next time they level up, what would it be and what reason would they have for doing so?
Fighter, it’s the closest to what he is and it would basically just be a case of “going back to basics” with what he used to know.
What television/book/video game/etc. character would your character be best friends with? (Or: what media character is your character the most influenced by/similar to?
Deadpool
What unusual talents does your character possess?
I always thought his skill with alchemy and the drums would impress people, and I like to think maybe he can do like weird body things like pop a joint out or contort his body in a weird way to freak people out.
How does your character feel about receiving/giving orders? Are they more of a leader, or a follower?
It’s the most complicated thing for him because he’s gone back and forth being in charge and being a follower, and he’s followed good people and bad people. He understands orders are needed but also sometimes someone tells him what to do and it just makes him absolutely snap.
What does your character’s name represent to them? (Or: why as a player did you choose your character’s name?)
“He’s small, green, crunchy and sweet (or sour), he’s Pickle!” sung like a jingle to a commercial.
Is your character more of an introvert, or an extrovert?
I think he’s pretty damn extroverted.
How far is your character willing to go to pursue the “greater good”? Do they believe in a greater good at all?
He’s prepared to go pretty damn far, and that’s also what I think Anders saw in him, because Anders was also just as willing.
What does your character want to be remembered by?
That that stupid little goblin that everyone overlooked fucking won.
What would be your character’s major in college?
Chemistry? Or maybe music, because he likes music a lot. I think he’d honestly maybe just drop out tho lol.
Does your character consider themselves a hero, villain, or something else?
I’d say maybe he’s an Antihero? Or like a vigilante kind of deal? He likes seeing people he hates consider him their own personal villain tho.
What major arcana tarot card best represents your character?
I’ll go with....judgement
Where does your character see themselves in 20 years?
Hopefully with all of this long behind him, everything is solved and he’s got a ton of gold and anything else he wants.
What is your character’s relationship with magic? Are they scared of it, wish to know more about it, indifferent to it?
All magic was made to hurt people.
Who is your character’s biggest rival?
Sebastian.
What is your character’s guiltiest pleasure?
That he enjoys hurting people for money in fighting rings. Like he’s got this weird pleasure with gore and crushing bones and things like that, but then also really hates that he likes it, he thinks he’s fucked up.
What does your character hope for the afterlife?
I think it scares him so he ignores it. I guess he hopes he’s seen as doing what was right.
Who in the party does your character trust the least?
Siril, just because he’s unpredictable.
What is your character’s biggest flaw?
He’s someone that needs help and knows he needs help but he’s both too aggressive and too prideful to ask for it.
How did your character learn the languages that they speak?
Raised knowing goblin and he just knows common otherwise babey.
What is your character’s favorite school of magic/type of weaponry?
He really does take a liking to using his axes, but I think he’s still trying to find the perfect weapon, they’re all interesting. He wishes he could just punch things but he’s not that strong.
What is most important to your character: health, wealth, or happiness?
Happiness, wealth, health. Fuck health it’s always shit.
What advice would your character give to a younger version of themselves?
You are way way stronger than you think you are, fight.
Are there any social or political issues your character feels strongly about?
I think if he learned that theres certain power structures in place in the world that are pseudo-legal he’d get very very upset.
What, currently, is your character the most curious about?
How the fuck do I talk to Ida
