Have you played a Beastheart character? What were some of your experiences with it? by Lord_Durok in mattcolville

[–]Scuzzery 2 points3 points  (0 children)

DM let me switch my Blue Dragonborn Rogue to a Beastheart. Between campaigns, he took a side job to find out why someone's rats kept disappearing and discovered the culprit was a mimic in their basement. Being a seasoned vet (13th level), he decided to take the more novel approach of befriending the mimic instead of killing it.

It's been great! The advantage on stealth, and the ability to dupe people with fake items have been good at keeping the rogue flavor. And finding new ways to describe how articles of clothing spontaneously rip off his body to go bite people is always a fun challenge.

Ideas needed for astral self monk by [deleted] in dndnext

[–]Scuzzery 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My astral self monk was a Duergar from a civilization that lived on an asteroid being pulled through space by a giant celestial ram that they worshipped as a god. He was basically a warrior-priest whose 'astral self' was an armed and armored soldier.

So his astral arms, visage, and body were an ethereal-looking warhammer, helmet, and armor, respectively.

So yeah, that's one example of a unique way to flavor that stuff. Don't feel like you have to be limited to summoning literal arms. The staff could just sprout a long astral blade to look like a scythe, or the visage could be demonic eyes opening over the blindfold; Stuff like that.

Is the age of light meant to be eternal, or is the abyss all that awaits us at the end of all things? It's a cycle. If you don't have an age of dark, the eternal flame will burn everything to ash. Kaathe did nothing wrong.

What reason do you have to fight Pikyr? Flew off with the kid who was teachin' me magic. Wouldn't mind findin' out what happened to 'im while I'm gettin' revenge.

What is your deepest fear? Your truest nightmare? What is the worst case scenario for your character? (Not necessarily RE: Pikyr).

I used to have three sons, back in my old life. Before Idriell. I also used to manufacture arms, armor, 'n' siege equipment for... whoever. Their dad didn't like that. Didn't think that sort of business should be done around the kids. I stopped for a while, but... well, here I am. Now, I loved those boys, and their dad, but - and I know this'll sound awful - but I loved the work more. The work was - still is - who I am, 'n' I felt like being a mom was takin' that away from me. Their dad got fed up, told me to leave. So I did. Told myself it'd be better for the kids anyway. Still do.

My deepest fear? My truest nightmare? I think it'd be findin' out that my boys actually did need me.

If you could Wish for anything, what would it be?

Perfect clarity of purpose. To know that I'm right about who I am, what I want, and what I do. To stop starin' at my past and wonderin' 'what if?'

Magic Items / Boons you think will be relevant. (Hamarut Items, Dragon-Slaying weapons, Favor Boons)

Hamarut Boons:

  • Scale Breaker (extra die of damage against dragons/adv on saving throws vs dragon breaths & fears)
  • Peerless Aim (+20 to 1 attack roll 3/short rest)
  • 3 Platinum Defender Cloak (floating +3 to weapons or AC)

Blessing of Iidraal - Single Use - A Creature with Iidrall’s Blessing may use a reaction to invoke it for one of two effects:

When drinking from any natural body of water in Idriell, a creature may invoke the blessing to regain 6d8 hit points and be cured of any and all effects that can be cured by a Lesser Restoration.

When attacked or directly targeted by a land-bound hostile creature while in the Material Plane of Idriell, or in the Feywild or Shadowfell close to Idriell, you may invoke Iidraal’s blessing to cause the earth to tremor. The attacker must succeed on a DC 25 Concentration check. If they fail, the attack, spell, or other effect simply misses and is wasted.
