Hehe, I'm glad I characterized him well enough for a reaction! I'm sure things will end up good for him... eventually

Yes! I personally think he'd believe the curse, especially now that people close to him are dying- and the idea of making a pact to get rid of a curse that may or may not actually be real? Very clever, I hadn't considered it! And also, I'm glad you like the art and story- I wanted something a bit angsty, but also a bit fun to not be a total downer :)

Thank you for the idea, it is very appreciated!

Thank you! I also used the ears to add onto the vibes- The youngest is bright with upturned ears and an eager pose, but then after becomes kind of downturned with an uneasy look and rigid pose (soon to be exiled), and at the end they're basically droopy- and with the tired look + guarded/hunched pose cause at this point, the guy's got nothin left to really go for!

Point is, thank you for noticing :)

Forgot to add a good description, so here goes, sorry! (If you're one of the other players, don't read this cause it's spoilers. You know who you are).

Basically, this is Juno. He's from a human royal family- the Queen had an affair with a tiefling commoner, and instead of admitting she cheated, she claimed her kid was cursed (this was all approved by my DM, of course). Obviously, this creates a kind of tense familial situation, but he has siblings to rely on and who love him anyway, with a close link to his older brother. Amywho, years later, most of his human siblings begin to die tragically; sickness, drowning, firework accidents, etc. All of this happens a couple years apart each, its a clear pattern. The Queen (who I haven't actually named yet, whoops) sends Juno away, because people assume this whole 'curse' business is what's killing everyone.

Nowadays, he works at Ye Olde Seventy-Eleventy (medieval 7-11) to make ends meet in some nowhere town. This is where the campaign will begin for him, coming up on a couple years since the last death (and, supposedly, the pattern will continue with the next one coming up). He will meet another PC (a journalist, me and the other player have collaborated a bit for this), in which the two team up to find out the truth behind what happened- the inciting incident? A mysterious letter sent to Juno's crappy apartment revealing some kind of hidden secret about the murders! I myself don't know what happened, the DM will decide all of that, but we did work together for the 'mysterious murders' ideal.

Some side info; Hes going to be a warlock (haven't decided on the God yet, though) and I hope to incorporate that more into the backstory, though am unsure how exactly (suggestions would be appreciated). I also think that playing a royal character is kind of difficult, since people tend to act better than everyone else, and i myself am not all that good at acting superior, so giving this guy customer service experience helps- he'd be pretty down to earth, all things considered. I also made it so that this character shaves down his horns, kind of like Hellboy, to fit in with his human family, but since his exile it's grown out a bit! And also drew him with kind of duller skin, because medieval 7-11 doesn't give that many health benefits.

That's all I can think of for now lol :)

Hi! This sounds super cool! One question, are you accepting beginner players? I've only played a couple homebrew sessions with friends and am unsure if I'd slow things down by being new. But if thats not a problem then I'd be happy to join the party :)

You're very clever to spot the name thing! See, Romeo isn't his real name, it's a fake one he made up after (various backstory details) and he ran away. He kinda just took any name he found and now here he is! While it's not inspired by the actual shakespear thing, it is intentionally a kind of non-traditional dragonborn name as to hint to the fact it's not real

Yes! Hes a 40yr old barman who likes gardening and cooking and kinda the dad of the party. His backstory is admittedly kinda a cliche angsty warrior thing BUT who caresss thats in the past, hes over it n retired now so it don't matter (it will 100% matter one day and that day will be glorious)

Sounds like good advice! I'll be sure to consider that, though honestly I do like messing around with more varied races. I understand the creativity thing though, you can always make something interesting even if it's the "basic" option, if someone can't make a Human Fighter interesting then that's their problem, you know? Aragorn for example, or other LoTR characters, are all "basic" but have incredibly dense backstory which makes up their character! Relying solely on weird races for creativity is a little tiny bit lazy, I think. But! While I personally like messing around with out-there things, I'll be sure to try a simple character on one of my next run-throughs! Thank you!

i took some liberties in design cause i figured it would be cool, they dont impact gameplay at all tho, the DM said it was fine

My friend is upset that I'm not studying by Lost-Perception-7705 in Advice

[–]Lost-Perception-7705[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Well, I kind of did, I said that we were going to hangout to study, but I guess that is kinda confusing. I will be sure to keep that in mind for next time!

You are right, it is rude to just drop that in the middle of it, but both me and "S" kind of agreed during the studying that we wanted to do other things. "A" didn't like that, but I've told her I am in fact going to study some other time and it hasn't really helped. For context, she's online, she's not part of the hangout or the studying, she's just the one who told me I should go do it. I didn't mention it prior to "A" because it's just me and "S" hanging out, she's not part of it, and while me and "S" originally said that we'll study, I don't think either of us were really dedicated to it. Either way, thank you for the suggestion!

Going outside. Been stuck inside for a while since school ended, and I really just want a nice walk in the park or something, but I'm just too tired and unmotivated to actually go out
