there’s a theme for fiendish warlock patrons being connected to creative occupations in c4. tsul’rekshi, who is hollis kinnywater’s patron, deals in paint and pigment. the mercanaud twins are warlocks and tailors in service of ksha’aravi. next we know, brennen pulls out a talented singer with a warlock sugar daddy, wo pied pipers souls down the pit with a solid e6.

the shadow

[id: art of julien. he stands in front of a wall with a composed, blank expression. holding a white candle in his gauntleted hand. an off-center circle of green-white light illuminates him from the candle, and throws his shadow behind him, much larger than him. the shadow smiles with thjazi's grin. end id.]

on another note it was very entertaining to me that the riddles and traps started out as things caleb taunted beau / jester / veth to solve (in this order iirc) and in the end fjord really came the fuck through. travis played an outstanding game at the table tonight and he came away as my favourite player in the one-shot, alongside ashley and marisha, though i expected it to be those two once i knew liam would co-dm. the moment he realised they had to burn down the house i had complete chills. just stellar stuff from him as a player but also from fjord (who did not! turn into an orca)

projekt funball was a giant slice of the bad caleb cake, the alternative timeline volstrucker cookie, the liam o’brien trolling confectionery.

[revvethasmythh]

you go into the happy funball. caleb is corrupted. he uses dunamancy to accelerate the rate of veth's pregnancy, forcing her to give birth on the battlefield. you walk out of the happy funball. there is a baby named Bren Brenatto

(light non-specific cr4 spoilers) I have so many thoughts on Wick and Tyranny and Caleb and Jester parallels. Obviously, as silly chaotic tiefling girl Tyranny has been compared to Jester from the start of the campaign, and with Wick and Tyranny's dynamic being similar to Caleb and Jesters, along with Caleb and Wick both being anxious twinks indoctrinated into big bad evil institutions you would think ah yes good parallels.

But, what if I told you the parallel is Wick to Jester and Tyranny to Caleb. Wick and Jester both come from an extremely sheltered and wealthy upbringings and have very little real world experience because of that. Additionally, they hold these core idealistic beliefs that their actions center around, but this makes them come of as childish and naive to others. Because of this naivety, others assume little of their intelligence and don't trust them with information. There's also this undercurrent of secrets being kept from them to "keep them pure". With this, many characters keep very pivotal things from them both, involving their lineage and family, and additionally the legitimacy of their faith pertaining to their belief in "false gods". In fact, their foils Tyranny/Caleb continue this pattern of keeping secrets from them, although both are well intentioned and clearly conflicted in doing so. Speaking of Caleb and Tyranny, lets talk about them. Both of their characters center around this deep seeded belief that they are irredeemable. (It was actually Tyranny's "You can't save me" that got me thinking about these parallels, although they're dynamic had reminded me of Caleb and Jester for a bit). So Caleb and Tyranny both view themselves as irredeemable, there are sins in their past they feel as if they cannot atone for and they think their beings are fundamentally corrupted. But, unlike the people that conditioned them towards evil, they have a strong underlying moral compass that doesn't always reflect well outwardly, and an unnurtured but ardent ability for empathy and kindness. At first they're just acting to survive, until they're hit with affection and care for those around them that breaks them out of this pattern of survival by means of apathy. They are both more observant and understanding than given credit for and start to take on this supportive role in the others life. Wick/Jester have a belief not only in their idealistic values but see a good in Tyranny/Caleb that they themself cannot see, but despite Wick/Jester trying to "better" Tyranny/Caleb the dynamic is more commonly the reverse as Caleb/Tyranny use their understanding to empathize and support Wick/Jester. This is why I think the crux of the dynamic is so familiar, they both share so much common ground and despite being near opposites in a lot of ways, the core of their beings match. They bond so much through shared trauma and an empathy and understanding that has been absent in the majority of their relationships throughout their lives.
