#ruewen simber

[ninthhousesteel]

things ruewen simber has done that i feel best reflect who she is

started a bar fight with the strongest member of their party to distract the owner from the keys being stolen from her, immediately got thrown across the room into a wall, it worked

suggested stealing robes from unconscious/dead evil clergy members in order to infiltrate an evil church, it worked

ignored a horrendously gay moment by watching a roly poly walk along a porch railing, it worked (and she named her cat after it)

figured out she wasn't in fact dyslexic because uh oh! she could suddenly read deep speech

tried to have a pretty girl hold her hand because she did not yet have darkvision and needed to walk into a pitch black cave, it didn't work and she's still upset about it

her and the aforementioned pretty girl are now in a will-they won't-they relationship that can only be described as schrodinger's romance

#ruewen simber #she is. the silly ever and i love her #you guys i. love. her #and i Will talk about her. sorry followers #memento mori campaign

[sunflower-butch]

the vitriol for light mode is so valid. tell me about your poor little meow meow blorbo from dnd if you so wish

WAHOO

You know that TikTok audio from the Lego movie where the astronaut wants to build a space ship and he’s like “you’re not gonna tell me no” or whatever? Me rn :3 Apologies in advance for the long rant but!! You did technically ask for it hehe

ANYWAY, technically none of them are *my* poor little meow meow blorbos because I’m the Dungeon Master!! But I am genuinely obsessed with all of them

@haaawaiianshirt plays Delilah, an aasimar path of the beast barbarian. She was born and raised in a religious commune type situation before running away after being responsible for the death of a friend, and then being adopted by a sheriff in a small town. She later became his deputy, but they can’t outrun their past. The god this commune worshipped, Omen, is reaching out, and it seems he has some sort of plan for her that she does NOT want to be a part of. They’re also reflavored so that their path of the beast forms aren’t tail, claws, whatever, it’s cherub, seraphim, and throne form!! Which we got to work on together and I think it’s really cool. Emmie jokes I have shared custody of Delilah hehe, and I’ve probably done the most writing for her thus far

@suwunnysideup is playing Belladonna, a reborn tiefling grave cleric (with a bonus level in fighter!)!! They were raised from death by an evil cult called the Order of the Rotting Eye, which serves a rival god to Omen called Char’gothikon. Their past is intrinsically linked to Delilah’s, but both characters are still figuring out how. She’s recent been revealed to have more than one soul piloting their body, and are under the influence of something dark. They are currently trying to rescue their wife, Aasharni, from the clutches of the Order, who are demanding powerful Relics in return. She is also a werewolf, as of session two! They are the sweetest ever. They’re also 7 feet tall and we’re all really normal about it

@daughterofdrearburh is Nora Elliot, a rough around the edges “human” (werecoyote) ranger!! Her specific subclass has yet to be revealed in game, but she has abilities somehow related to other dimensions. A group called the Horizon Walkers, also servants of Omen, have made their connection to her known, and are seemingly trying to recruit her. She’s a terrible little beast and we all love her so dearly. She’s best friends with Morgan, and grew up in the same town as Delilah, but she can be a little aloof. She doesn’t like to trust people, and recently got shot by Morgan (under a vampiric charm) and lost the one bit of trust she had placed in anyone. Also she died and came back with black eyes but that went away so I’m sure it’s fine

@ninthhousesteel is playing Ruewen Simber, another normal human!! She’s a fighter, champion archetype, only she somehow has access to spare the dying and was able to use a scroll, despite “not being a spellcaster.” She was a socially awkward farm girl who didn’t even believe in monsters before joining the group and quickly having to confront that fact. She discovered a not at all cursed sword that was later revealed to in some way be connected to Char’gothikon. Also, she died in one session, but returned without the help of revivify—but with dark veiny scarring across her shoulder that appears to be spreading…

@candle-lion plays everyone’s favorite unethical evil lesbian, Doctor Morgan Lancaster. She’s a doctor who Jekyll and Hyde’d herself. She’s a “shifter” circle of the moon druid with a few levels in artificer. She was a doctor in a town called Dusty Springs, which was terrorized by vampires from a coven called the Onyx Eye Coven for many years. She has a HUGE vendetta against vampires, and is damn determined to exterminate every single one she sees. In an effort to become stronger and protect people, she made an experimental serum, which turned her into a monster. During times of stress, at will, or occasionally at random, she transforms into a “bad taxidermy wolf monster” but apparently mostly maintains control. She’s looking for a cure for herself, and recently discovered she too is somehow connected to Char’gothikon.

@lavenderlevetan is a petty vampire and we fucking love her. Seraphina is a half elf now vampire and she’s a fighter as well!! She has canonically killed 1000+ people over 20 years of being a vampire!! But she specifically chooses to go after bounties, and specifically those that list “wanted dead or alive.” She’s actually the nicest person ever until you (Morgan) give her a reason to be petty. She’s also the most charming of the group and her expertise in persuasion has made her mvp of multiple sessions. She was dragged into this mess while trying to find a missing person for a bounty, and thus far has yet to discover why her specifically, when it seems every other character is here for a Reason

Morgan and Seraphina hate each other and they want to kiss about it so bad. When any of us post about morphine, that’s them LMAO. Deliladonna is obviously Delilah and Belladonna. Norue are the slowest slow burn ever

And while I’m the DM and don’t have a PC, I do have a special little guy NPC that I’m a little obsessed with. Her name is Brozi and she’s a half orc way of mercy monk. She was Delilah’s best friend (and for some time, girlfriend) after the aasimar arrived in Sawtooth City and together they were the worst teenagers ever. Brozi isn’t going with the party, but she and Delilah are still very close, and their goodbye will be hard. While Delilah is gone, they get to achieve their lifelong dream of opening a bakery 🫶

In any case. Cowboy dykes. With horror. Themes of free will, losing control, found family, and learning to trust and overcome prejudice. The friendship dynamics took everyone by surprise. Belladonna and Seraphina are undead besties. Ruewen and Seraphina play go fish. Delilah and Morgan are slowly fixing each other. Nora and Morgan are also fixing each other. Morgan is super protective of Ruewen and it’s very sweet. I would die for any one of them. I’m obsessed with them a healthy amount.

This is the party 🫶

(In order left to right: Morgan, Seraphina, Belladonna, Delilah, Ruewen, Nora)

#hope you silly goobers don’t mind the tags #anyway I’m sure these guys wouldn’t mind being asked about their little guys #they’re all so fucking cool #I mean this about the players just as much as the characters #I love you guys #it’s after midnight so I’m sappy sue me #thank you so much for the chance to rant anon 🫶🫶🫶 #memento mori campaign

#ask game #ruewen simber #memento mori campaign

[ninthhousesteel]

more about Ruewen. more.

hey anon? kissing your forehead for letting me talk about her more

she has a younger brother! but he and his boyfriend got captured and turned into vampires :(

she stole a cowboy hat from the first big villain the party faced, hung onto it and gave it to her brother to protect him from the sun

has black lightning-like scars running from one of her arms up to her face that appeared after she was resurrected (which i think make her look cool as fuck) but is absolutely nothing the party needs to be worried about :)))

just got a creepy new piercing that completely decimated the lower half of her ear in a metal tangle! the piercing itself resembles a red eye which is the symbol of the evil god of the campaign! nothing to be concerned about here either

is the designated go fish teacher of the group, would honestly be a great camp counselor

#these are all canon events but i could talk So much more about her inner thoughts and feelings!! #there's also. secrets #but i can't talk about those yet :3 #ruewen simber #memento mori campaign

[ninthhousesteel]

FOR THE DND ASKS EVERY # ENDING IN 2 !!!

YIPPEE THANK YOU NOAH

2. before they met their party what was their main goal?

ruewen was a farmer so it would probably be just tending to the farm and making sure everything was running smoothly

12. have they ever been in love?

not yet but she might be falling for someone 👀

22. what is a promise they've broken

keeping her brother safe </3

32. do they seek control or do they want less of it?

she doesn't seek out control for power but she would like to have some sort of control over where her life is headed

42. what are three words they would use to describe themself?

uncertain, inexperienced, cursed

52. from whom do they seek validation?

prior to meeting the party it was from herself, but now she wants to prove to the world that she is capable

62. outside of otherworldly forces, what do they believe in?

FUNNY STORY ruewen didn't even believe in the supernatural before getting tangled in the plot of this campaign LMFAO but now i think she doesn't know who or what to believe in

#thank you AGAIN for this ask i love this girl with all my heart #ruewen simber #fantasy cowgirls (gn) #memento mori campaign

[ninthhousesteel]

guys im so fucking insane about my d&d character but she exists to like. ten whole people max and im going to explode if she doesnt become the most specialest girl in the world immediately

#im normal i SWEAR #ruewen simber

[ninthhousesteel]

Any 4 of your choice plus 69 for the Ruewen asks 🫶

i need everyone to know that the person that sent me this ask is an AMAZING DM and deserves the world for making this campaign

7. which party member do they understand the least?

probably seraphina because they have interacted the least out of the bunch (but they could definitely become best good pals)

19. what haunts them? what doesn't?

she's haunted by her past present and future. her past from being so naive to never consider the dangers of the real world, her present as she is now facing those dangers at the price of her own life and possibly even those of the ones closest to her, and her future, not knowing what could come next or which day could be her last

31. they're given a blank piece of paper- what do they do with it?

slowly but deliberately tear it into shreds

43. why do they fight?

to survive

69. how would they describe their party members?

morgan: an inquisitive mind burdened by how much she cares

delilah: carrying more responsibility than she deserves to bear

seraphina: quiet but intriguing, comforting to know there's another normal guy in the group

belladonna: strong yet gentle and shrouded in secrecy

nora: unwilling to hold her hand snarky but in a humorous way, but rue doesn't quite know how to feel about her

#fank yew for the ask <3 #ruewen simber #fantasy cowgirls (gn) #memento mori campaign

[ninthhousesteel]

any 4 of your choice plus 13 and 14 for the dnd ask

14 was already answered but here are the rest of them <3

13. what do they dislike about themself? why?

she feels as though she is incapable of holding her own and protecting the things she loves. being a normal human fighter doesn't leave her with magical powers and abilities and has already proven to be a weakness against the evils in the campaign!

56. what animal do they most relate to?

she most closely relates to a sheep dog (specifically a border collie if anyone was curious) in terms of both valuing work, protection, and loyalty

59. what is a quiet passion of theirs?

woodworking! she carries woodcarver's tools but hasn't gotten a chance to use them yet (although she probably pulled them out in strength room to pass the time)

60. do they whisper or yell more often?

whisper, as she knows the danger that can come from a shout

61. what kind of flower would they choose to pick from a meadow?

dandelions!! she prefers the yellow ones to the wispy ones too :3

#thank you for the ask and apologies for it taking so long to answer !! #ruewen simber #memento mori campaign

[ninthhousesteel]

14, 46, 64 for the d&d asks!

thank you for the ask eve !!! <3

14. what is something they love about themself?

ruewen values her loyalty above everything else. first it was to her farm and to her brother, but she is now building trust with the party and holds a growing loyalty towards them (especially morgan)

46. what do they deprive themself of?

okay time to be sad about the blorbo. ruewen has never had any friends outside of her brother and she is so eager to please the party and get them to like her that she would be more than willing to sacrifice her own needs and wants to appease them :)

64. do they value mercy or justice more?

prior to the campaign mercy, but that may change with the horrors she experiences

#sorry that this took so long to answer !! #ruewen simber #memento mori campaign
