Okay, so, due to the nature of Dimension20 and Fantasy High specifically, most of the NPCs live in a space between trope and caricature

Brennan being Brennan (and the Intrepid Heroes being the Intrepid Heroes) those tropes are often turned on their head and the caricature belies something deeper, but as a starting point, they are all larger than life, none more so than Arthur Aguefort himself

Which brings me to Worlds Beyond Number, and the Wizard Sly

Aguefort is a cartoon character. He wouldn’t feel out of place in a sitcom (with or without laugh track)

Sly, in the 30 minutes or so of screen time we’ve got so far, feels like a fully fleshed out, real person. Eccentric but not played for laughs.

and i’ve been thinking that, for the last day or so, there’s this thread between them (something more than “magical old black man”) and i think i landed on it

Time

What is chronomancy but divination turned up to 11?

These two men seek to make the world a better place through their knowledge of time. They can be gruff, but give good advice. They mentor multiple generations of young heroes. They both have red birds that seem near and dear to them.

The more i think about it, it’s not a thread that binds them. They, thus far, seem like two sides of the same coin. The Wizard Sly seems very much to be Arthur Aguefort freed from the hijinks of Solace and burdened with a more grounded world

… you know, with his capacity for shenanigans, i wouldn’t put it past Arthur to have dimension hopped and found himself having to run a long con

it’s like, super unlikely

but…

#worlds beyond number #the wizard the witch and the wild one #worlds beyond number spoilers #dimension 20 #the wizard sly #arthur aguefort #i don’t think sly had a kid with the bird tho #wonder if brennan knew he was introducing a beloved NPC #or if he thought sly would just be some guy #rosa diaz holding a puppy and saying ‘i’ve only had Sly for one episode…’

The fox deadpan saying "I eat meat" is so funny to me! There was no reason for him to speak up but he did and I love that for him

A recurring thought I keep having about the Wizard Sly, who solves future problems only he can see by preventing them from ever becoming problems in the first place.

What if the future problem is something these 3 people will do when they are working together?

What if their friendship was what needed to be altered today to prevent a future outcome?

He made sure Ame felt guilt, responsibility, and urgency at a critical moment. Was the intent to warn her away from a dire outcome (with her friends) or toward one (without her friends)?

The introduction of The Wizard Sly is so interesting in what it implies about the nature of the conflicts that will occur to the citadel during the campaign.

What are Sky's politics regarding the Citadel and Umora? What might he see that would prevent catastrophe for the World but still present a real danger to the Citadel. What is he actually prioritizing? He's clearly very hard at work and some of what he sees concerns very near events if he had the foresight to requisition something for Ame.

The last time the empire was attacked it was because they were not aware of an innovation in magic that left them vulnerable to attack. Did Sly see that? Were the seeds of that planted so long before he actually perfected his craft that he was powerless to stop them? Was he just powerless to stop them anyway- no one seems to take him seriously. Was he playing Cassandra on the great stage of the Citadel? The other empires have to have diviners too, is there a way to block divination? And if there is to what scale- obviously individuals and places can probably guard against divination but everything the Citadel/Empire does involves too many people and too many other places to not be detectable in some way? Does an event have to be larger than a battle but smaller than a war to completely escape notice?

Or is that scale the problem, too many people too near in the future. So many possible paths to take and the river flows along its bed but slowly surely the water wears away at the bank of the river. Not one big decision like the sound that starts an avalanche but water drops freezing in the crack in a boulder until that too inevitably breaks?

Haaaaa The Wizard Sly. Damnnnn. When Suvi asked for a piece of bad news (why would you even ask that to a diviner? wizard hubris is wild) and he just replied “you’re not ready for it” I got full goosebumps. I am also not ready for it, whatever it is.

Absolute legend of a guy but also I’m scared cause I know what Brennan is capable of with oracular visions (Calamity flashbacks)

Really really loved the name cloak ceremony. It was so cinematic and helped me kinda *get* what it's really about.

Cuz I mean I knew the whole protection bit, names have power and obfuscating your real one will of course be wildly beneficial.

But I did have an "oh shit" moment where I realized the true decision behind choosing a name, and why Sky is so big.

It's a balancing game of finding yourself in an abstract, a facet of a word that fits who you are, what you hold dear, or what you want to become/exemplify, and the perception of others who won't know or see how you connect to your name but will fill in meaning based on their personality and values or assign expectations depending on history. To lose your true name to the cloak is to move into almost a bigger shell. Something that not only encompasses who you are but covers what you will become and how you are seen.

Sky is a big name, a title, because it's so big literally and metaphorically! It's always changing and always there, and there are so many ways to put meaning to it and interpret it. Sure, there are Suvi's predecessors, who both seem like major historical figures, who have their legacies and shoes to fill, but also, it's a major thing to exemplify by itself!

Continuing under the cut with the Archmagi's little speeches & Suvi's connection to her name cuz I think it kinda tells us a bit about their personalities.

Saber:

What power then, that that great firmament might rain down. Whether thunder, lightning, great powers to cover all, and with its judgment mete out what it sees fit.

Of course the Archmage named Saber has a very weaponized view of the sky, concerned with the power it (& Suvi) holds and how it is used to defend or attack. (I wonder if he sees himself, above all, as a weapon to be wielded by the Citadel)

Sand:

What cannot be seen, who's weightless weight we bear each day upon our shoulders, turns the mountains into dust. Subtly and the movement in spaces unseen. The dominion of your title.

Tbh Sand is the Archmage that interests me the most, I'd say her choosing of her name had to do with time. The invisible currents in the sky, the hidden stars during the day, the sun disappearing at night. Always shifting even when unobservable and moving ever onwards.

Sorrow:

Things eternal. That have been with us since the dawn of time. Wisdom in the watchfulness of a constant partner ever above, defined by its distance.

Sorrow is also very interesting. The sky as something always there but never interacting. A monolith of cosmic knowledge, knowing from observation but not experience. (Perhaps a sorrow of missed connection)

Serenity:

Movement. Life, in a desert beyond which no growing thing can be seen from our vantage point. We see the beginnings, wisps of vapor that will become storms, rain to fall upon forest and field. A partner in a dance to sustain the world forever.

Serenity's view is one that I'm fond of, the sky as a nurturing force, full of change and life-giving, whose effects will spread beyond what can be observed. (Legacy, perhaps, the peace in knowing that the seeds you sow continue to grow for a long time, ripples in a pool).

Silence:

The sky is not the weather or the wind, the sky holds all things, let it be known that vastness is yours. The sorrows it will bring you, that you and your road are vast and broad and lead to all places. Many who have destiny curse it. But what a burden, to be able to choose any path under the sun.

Less of what the sky itself holds or is, but instead acknowledging the freedom something so big has. Suvi can shape her and others' interpretations however she wants. There is space to spare, and the legacies of those before her haven't restricted anything at all. That there is the possibility of things going wrong, or being missed, but at least it was a choice that could be made. (Everything that can be said with silence, when it is best to talk and best to hold your tongue. The possibility in that empty space of what could come next)

Suvi:

...The version of the sky that Suvi will claim for her own is a sky that she saw when she was 6 years old. The dead of night. Stars visible. Snow gently falling. As her world got blown apart. And she remembers the explosion of magic, she's never seen anything that big, and she thought it would destroy everything, not just her but the world itself and yet the sky looked down and held it all and watched it all and persisted. That is the sky that she claims.

& when giving Ame her name:

That night, and the day we met Eursulon, contain everything in this world I seek to protect. All below one big sky.

Very inchresting & I know I'm not the best person to do a ton of meta on subject but, I was originally going to say Silence's view was similar, then Sorrow's, but neither are quite right. The sky is always there, through fear and joy, and remains a constant no matter what changes. It holds everything, stands in relief no matter what, feels it, but can weather it and remain unchanged. Suvi wants to be strong, to be able to go through and witness terrible things but remain stalwart in the face of it, protecting no matter what. To always continue. To see and have those happy times with those she loves and see them safe while still watching and waiting in just in case.

#worlds beyond number #wbn #wbn spoilers #wwwo #wwwo spoilers #the wizard the witch and the wild one #loved the insight into the citadel #i kinda want to meet the mage sly now as well #just to see what they're like #this definitely got away from me #but twas fun

a lot of folks have asked why Ame didn’t drop Sly’s name because then surely Steel would have been more amenable

but I’m 99% sure that would have made things so much worse

Stone was in the college of Diviners

Moved there after being kicked out of the Citadel. One of the few to be allowed back in at all

Steel speaks of prophecies and traps like she’s speaking from experience. There’s a fear there.

if I’m right, Steel hates Sly. Because Stone heard a prophecy, one that led her to send her daughter to a witch’s home for the summer, one that put an amulet around Suvi’s neck, one that meant Soft and Stone couldn’t, wouldn’t wait for Steel on that first mission they went on without her

the last mission they ever went on

and Steel doesn’t want that to happen to Suvi, to Ame. She wants to protect them from the trap.

Ame dropping Sly’s name would have certainly added more context and possibly led to a lore drop

But i def don’t think it would have helped her case

[ETA: i got the timing wrong. Stone was Diviner then Abjurer. Still doesn’t stop me from thinking Stone and Sly cooked up their plans from the start and/or were in cahoots]

"Real importance lives equally, in every thread of the tapestry of existence. You are important my friend. No matter if you walk in field or forest, in great halls or high castles, your choices, you, your actions in this world, and all the worlds there are, they matter. Importance doesn't live on the lips of the powerful, but by our words and deeds."

-Brennan Lee Mulligan as The Wizard Sly in The Wizard, the Witch, and The Wild One #20: Later Than You Think

So in the therapy fic au the Do'Urdens are all at Mithral Hall for the equivalent events of Legacy (which is a significantly larger crapshow to compensate for there being 5 extra drow with their own adventuring parties) and some of Drizzt's siblings already met Artemis, Nalfein is one of them. Additional note, Nalfein has a Sorcere Master's ring, he wears it often, this ring can see through most illusions.

So Drizzt is excitedly introducing everyone to his siblings and Nalfein looks at "Regis", takes just long enough that "Regis" recognizes his face and silver eyes, and then smiles.

It is not a nice smile.

#do'urden sibling therapy fic #therapy fic au #nalfein do'urden #artemis entreri #artemis thinks he's so sly with his disguise bc drizzt didn't suspect him but little did he know #that vain elf wizard he travelled to waterdeep with two years ago remembered his face and can also see through his disguise #also vain elf wizard is a drow and related to the shounen protagonist you swore to defeat
