For the d&d asks: 3-8, 31, 40
oh hey there! sorry about the delay. i been at work and then i was cuddling my baby kitten boy so this was...put on the backburner. again, so sorry. i really wanted to do this earlier.
anyways!
dnd asks
this got long, so under the cut!
3. What two feats would you have? Next ASI I will definitely be having my character take Sentinel. Because opportunity attacks and DON’T LEAVE MY SIGHT, BITCH. But I really like Prodigy as well. Feats that work great mechanically and flavor-wise. That’s best of both worlds, babey!
4. What has been your favorite d&d character you've played? (NPCs count for DMs) I’ve played only one character so far in a campaign, which is Llyr, my half-elf Ancients Paladin (who just took one level in Archfey Warlock). I love her. She deserves good things. And she has a cool sword!!! Though, I really, really loved playing my lore bard/divine soul sorcerer Eirian for a one-shot. But I’d been wanting to play a bard for a long time.
5. Which of your d&d characters has been the most like you? Oh, probably still Llyr. I put a lot of myself into her, because that’s the easiest thing to do when creating a character... just draw from personal experiences! It’s not exactly emulating, but there are definite parallels. Physically quite different, but there are similar life experiences. The extreme of what I aspire to be, sometimes.
6. Which of your d&d characters has been the least like you? Hmm... Don’t think it counts if I didn’t technically make them, but Adrie (arcane archer) and Evie (swashbuckler rogue) are probably the least like me? Adrie has absolutely no shame or sense of secondhand embarrassment, and Evie is just... I think THE lowest wisdom character I’ve ever played? That was...hilarious... She walked right into fire.
7. How do you go about making a character or NPC? Uhhh. A lot of whining at my DM, tbqh. “Help me! Tell me what to do, PLEASE.” I usually have like very sporadic ideas that are entirely not cohesive, and tying them together is a whole Thing. So I ask people and talk through it and eventually ideas spring forth that aren’t quite terrible and I roll with it. The character develops as I play. Sometimes I like being given a couple Key Character Traits and building off of those. I’m still working on improving my approach, honestly. It’s... a process.
8. What is the most memorable natural 20 you've ever experienced? I think it still has to be the nat20 I rolled for Llyr to eavesdrop on another party member who was talking to her (ex???) girlfriend. It sounds bad. But, listen, the party was sitting in CAGES. We were KIDNAPPED. She had to know if we could trust this person. Anyways. Then she telepathically relayed everything she heard to another party member through the ring of telepathy and unfortunately misconstrued many, many things. Heh. I don’t remember many others tbh. Or if I do, I’m not sure if I’m remembering them accurately. Welp.
31. Tell me about your current party! Oh, boy. Well, SK5 (Saturday Knight Five. Yes. That’s what we’re officially called. Because we play on Saturdays and there’s Five of us) is made up of my ancients paladin/archfey warlock Llyr Pelydryn (half-elf), beastmaster ranger/rogue/grave cleric Mazithra (called Maz, shifter, played by @pensandperoxides), shadow monk/death cleric Ja’el Willow (half-elf, played by @dubcliq), wild magic sorcerer Erimenthea (sometimes called Minty, halfling, played by @hippoimonokerata), and lore bard Eldon Bushgather (halfling, played by @rincewindschest). Honorable fucking mention to Rubbish, Maz’s raccoon companion. The MVP, honestly. And a special, special shout-out to our DM (helmed by @amiphobic). For, uh, putting up with us. We’re disasters. But we’re trying. Well, most of the time. Currently on a quest to stop some fuckening cults from destroying the world. Yeesh. And none of us are straight, so jot that down.
40. What d&d deity would you be a cleric of? God, what a question. Llyr is a paladin of Caer Ibormeith, a homebrew goddess based on some Welsh lore. (Thanks Jem!) She’s the goddess of dreams in our campaign, and her clerics would probably be light or grave domain. She’s not official or super strong or anything, but it would maybe be interesting to play from the perspective of a cleric under her guidance one day. Kind of like what Liam O’Brien did with Vax and Lieve’tel for the Raven Queen, yeah?
anyways, thanks a bunch for the questions! it was a lot more challenging to answer than i expected!
