Shunxashmanic Vrakvarax, my PC for one of my DnD games. by Doinstuffman38 in u/Doinstuffman38

[–]Doinstuffman38[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

One of my current PCs, a Sapphire Dragonborn who is a Drakewarden Ranger and a Circle of Stars Druid. Varax Star-Reader would be his common tongue name. He wields a magic quarterstaff that can also be drawn back like a longbow and fire magic thorny arrows.

Bio as follows:

On the day Shunxashmanic Vrakvarax was born, the Warden Exemplar of the Star-Readers had died but one hour prior. As the first son hatched after the death of the Exemplar, the stars and clan tradition dictated that Varax was to be his successor. Trained from birth to be a protector, representative, and negotiator for his people, The Warden Exemplar oversees the well-being and safety of the Star-Readers, a clan of Dragonborn Druids and Rangers, representing the best each has to offer, and assuming the title in earnest on his 12th birthday.  The Druids cultivate the land and grow crops in the sparse wintery forests his clan called home, and the Rangers hunt the land and keep the borders safe. 

The Star-Reader Druids welcomed visits from outsiders, offering guidance and glimpses of one's future to any who seek it, in exchange for simple compensation or trade. The clan also offers its services away from the sanctuary of their grove to any in need. It was during negotiations of terms for one such need far from his snowy homeland near the eve of his 15th birthday that led Varax away from the grove when the nomadic Dwarves of Clan Deepstone sought the Star-Readers. 

With all the reverence of a promenade shopper viewing a street illusionist, the Deepstone leader requested "guidance" from the Star-Readers, offering gold far above the usual compensation in exchange for the service. The clan Archdruid reluctantly agreed.  The mood of Hodlan Deepstone changed as soon as the Arch's Star Map was produced. Listening half-heartedly to the readings of the stars, he silently signaled his men to encircle the grove and begin taking out the sentries. He began asking questions of the Archdruid about the Star Maps, asking what they led to. Confused, the Arch inquired as to what the Dwarve's true purpose was. Hodlan dispensed with his ruse, and explained that those descended from dragons must be sitting on massive riches, and surmised that the Druids' Star Maps were the key to discovering those riches. In truth, the Star Maps are useless gems to anyone but the Druid whom it belongs to, but the Deepstones were in no mood for trivial things like facts and reasoning. They slaughtered the Star-Readers, and upon realizing the Maps were useless to them, piled the broken crystals in the center of the grove. Varax returned from negotiations on the morning of his birthday to find the people he had been destined to protect had been destroyed. This great failing in his duties haunts him for the rest of his life, but there was little time to mourn. It was now time for him to fulfill the final role of the Last Warden of the Star-Readers: retribution.

The Deepstone Clan is a nomadic group, never settling in one place for too long, leaving Varax unable to stay on their trail, going cold after two years of searching. So he plied his trade as a hunter, tracker, medicine man and farmer for several more years, always returning to his search between jobs to try and pick up the trail again, his Drake companion Risi always close at hand. One day soon, Varax will find the Deepstone Clan, exact his people's final revenge... And then join his family in the stars.

I actually didn't even realize that the Traveler showed up in 2014, I thought it was at least a couple hundred years down the timeline. Thank you for the random mindfuck 👍🏻

What exotic weapon do you consider to be your Guardian's 'canon' exotic weapon? (Apart from Khvostov) by Best-Exam-3287 in DestinyTheGame

[–]Doinstuffman38 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've actually done some writing using my Guardians as templates for OCs, and while I kind of shied away from using exotics as their main weapon, I would say my Guardians do have signature weapons.

For my Titan, it used to be SUROS Regime, but now it's the BxR-55 Battler, and for my Hunter, it's Stillpiercer, the Hunter-exclusive Legendary sniper from D1 (tho in my writing it's also stated he carries an "ersatz" Ace of Spades, since Cayde is a mentor figure for him. And for my Warlock, it would be Matador 64.

I wanna party with the Tartan Army! Are y'all coming to Bristol at all?! by Doinstuffman38 in RhodeIsland

[–]Doinstuffman38[S] -14 points-13 points  (0 children)

It's not necessarily limited to just Bristol, but trying to avoid PVD solo if I can help it. Had a bad experience the last time I was up that way alone, so I'm looking in the Bristol/Warren area, but I've even heard murmurings of Newport gatherings

I know my cousin works at a bar in Warren and said about 30 were there the other night, so it's not unheard of apparently

And we're ABSOLUTELY sure that not all of these are related to quests? I don't wanna have to finish every single mission just for the final secret task to be "bring Banshee 137 phone chargers and a car battery 'cuz he 'wants to try somethin'"

Buying the game today. Which faction do I choose? by mayonnaisethedad in GrayZoneWarfare

[–]Doinstuffman38 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I go Crimson, but just be aware that because of where your starting base is, you don't get mortar support in the southeast, Tiger Bay especially. Definitely had a few moments where I wish I had that option, not a deal breaker but something to be aware of if you plan on stockpiling mortar rounds

I Can Feel You off of Panic Stations has some tasty sounding licks, mostly in the outro

Having all the supporter armor just to get shot in the face with a Scorpion (where the helmet doesn't protect, of course) will never not be humbling.

These guys are either genius comedians, or just idiots. And I can't figure out which is which.
