❝ a BHAALSPAWN? Uh, yeah, I sure hope I spawned from someone's BALLS. ❞
‒‒‒‒‒‒‒‒‒ A beat of silence before it registers; she's so taken aback by the outlandish response that Jaheira can't help but bark out a laugh.
Stifling her laugh, she covers her mouth and huffs through her nostrils, the surprise replaced with a twinge of melancholy. "You know, you remind me of someone eerily familiar-- she would have made a joke like that."
Although, she couldn't really say for certain if Cottonbelle was actually joking or not, the girl had a tendency of being a bit out-there when it came to common sense.
【💣】— Cotton gave a smirk in response to finally getting Jaheira to crack. While the older woman hadn't exactly been the epitome of stoicism, seeing her laugh that hard had brought some satisfaction to the Monk-Ranger's less-than-satisfying news.
———-> A Bhaalspawn. Descendants of the god of murder, who, a hundred years ago, caused not one, but two nearly-catastrophic events in Fae'run. One being the rise of Sarevok, the other being Mellisan. It made perfect sense now, Cotton thought, why she had these horrible impulse thoughts, why she had such an almost uncontrollable urge to murder. To kill, kill, and kill again, only for the bloodlust to never be satisfied.
Her smile faded, expression now growing of concern. What now? She looked to Jaheira, inquisitive.
———-> ❝Who?❞
@foxbeemuses
‒‒‒‒‒‒‒‒‒ Yunae stared down at Halsin's corpse, looking more like they were severely annoyed than shocked or grieving. They had a scroll of resurrection, and Withers wasn't but a few metres away. Still, thinking empathetically, that *had* to have hurt.
"You can't just go around shooting anyone you think is suspicious, idiot. And it's 'doppelgänger' by the way." They added pedantically.
"I'm not even sure if *killing* someone would reveal the disguise, anyway. All of the ones we've killed so far showed their true form before we landed the final blow on them. What if they just stay in the form they died in?"
【💣】— ❝...Oh.❞ Well, there went her plan to slaughter the entire camp to both find Orin AND get rid of this murder-itch she'd had since they got to the Gate. Something told her that Withers wouldn't help out if she did that, anyway, and she highly doubted anyone would agree to that asinine idea.
———-> The Dark Urge... it turned out her impulse to violently rip anyone asunder that she had barely been able to keep under control this entire time, the Urge that she had been repressing and attempting to satisfy with the overindulgence in addictive substances and sex when the slaughter of the appropriate enemies wasn't enough... it had been something far darker than she expected. A Bhaalspawn.
———-> Her glacial blue eyes looked down at Halsin's lifeless corpse with a frown. She wasn't looking forward to the conversation with him later. As understanding and patient as Halsin was, even a saint of Ilmater would be pissed off at that stunt, and she'd probably get an earful of a lecture from him about this.
———-> ❝So then... we still have a problem.❞ The monk said aloud, in reference to the imposter among them.
While it was clear that neither of them knew exactly what it was that they were going to do about this, at least they had a place to start. She was right about the fact that they were near water, so they were probably not too far from a settlement or the like. If there was ever a place to start looking for a cure for all of this, it was there.
❝You're right about that--if we follow the river, then we are sure to find someone. Hopefully, that someone will be someone that can help. If you're okay with it, perhaps we could look together? I know I don't look like much, but my spells pack a pretty mean punch.❞ If she was being honest, she packed a punch herself.
Having grown up moving constantly from one skirmish or another, Eve was quite well versed at being able to take care of herself. That, and she would put her money on being able to protect others, so if Cottonbelles wanted to team up, she wouldn't be against it. Two tadpoled heads were better than one, right?
❝What do you say?❞
【💣】— ❝Anything's better than staying here, let's go.❞ The half-elf didn't seem to waste much time after that, and made a start towards the river. Along it's edge, Cotton followed the direction of the stream, then checked behind her to see if the sorceress was following.
———-> ❝Just out of curiosity, you wouldn't happen to like, have any memory loss since the abduction, would you?❞ She asked her new companion. It would be a safe enough bet to assume that the reason why she couldn't remember much of anything was because something was literally eating her brain, right?
———-> ❝Because, like, the name, Cottonbelle? I don't actually think it's my real name-- it's just something that came to me.❞
Question; if LOLTH depict-depi... represents herself in the image of a spider with a lady upper-half, then WHY is it considered a curse to be turned into a DRIDER? Wouldn't being turned into something more akin to her image be like, a blessing instead? Checkmate, athiests Lolth-sworns.
She's nodding along as she listens to the case presenting before her and then folds her hands behind her bak with a short hum as she mulls the question over. It was not the first time that this was presented to her in a scenario. The only difference then was that it had been a infidel in her then Spider Queen's own nest, and it had been Minthara's duty and solemn oath to strike them down on the spot.
"What you say may be true, in some concepts. Except, what is done to the Drider Monstrosities condemned for whatever crime that may be - is done to ensure Lolth's victims do not leave her side. They are made exampels of, to any who would stand against her." She inhales with the lift and fall of her shoulders, ever familiar with her former patron. The very notion, the memory of her service, twists an ache inside of her chest - an ache of rage. "Which is why, when I intend to make the Spider Queen bleed, I will have to cleave her head from her shoulders and tear her heart from her chest."
@cottonbelles - listen you may have forgotten you sent this but- hey?
【💣】— Cottonbelle could get behind destroying gods, if only they knew how. The very adventure before them was to destroy a god as their goal, or rather, whatever the hells this Absolute thing was. Judging from the strange meaty flesh throbbing around in Moonrise Towers, combined from the information Gale had squeezed out of the Oblodra merchant, it must have something to do with Illithids.
———-> ❝Well, either way, she sounds dumb,❞ She said with far too much confidence for someone with her intelligence stat should be responding with.
———-> ❝Although, correct me if I'm wrong, but I heard the only way to kill a god was to kill all her followers. So if you wanted to make her bleed, wouldn't you need to kill a lot of your kin?❞
// I came on here to show you guys the major inspiration and namesake for this OC, Cottonbelle. She was my neighbor's dog that I often babysat and went on 4-mile jogs with when my neighbor couldn't give her the exercise she needed.
At a whopping 21 years old, I've been informed that she passed away yesterday. She'll be sorely missed.
"Oh my gods, you killed Halsin! You bastard!!"
【💣】— ❝What? It was obvious,❞ The Bhaalspawn lowered her heavy crossbow, cocking the mechanism that once held the bolt as she looked down at the alleged druid, crossbow bolt struck right through the temple. He didn't know what had hit him.
———-> ❝He's the imposter doppleganster that's been in our camp.❞ The monk had found it suspicious that the normally calm, down-to-earth Halsin had been acting so fidgety lately, complaining almost non-stop about the city and acting so negative-- even in the Shadow Curse, Halsin still had hope and carried a level of calm to him. To Cottonbelle, it had seemed like something an imposter would do if they only had a surface-level of spying and observation on the elf.
———-> ❝Watch, he'll start changing shape any second now.❞ She knelt down to nudge the late-Halsin's foot. ❝Aaaany second now... See there--!!! Ah, no... that's just blood..❞
———-> Okay, maybe she fucked up.
She was glad that a lot of that was without an explanation, only because some of it was incredibly UNSETTLING. The kind of unsettling that raised a lot of questions, but some of it had also been her own. Not a lot, but that came with this damned shared connection and she didn't mind pretending she didn't know any of it either.
Coming clean could come much later.
Nodding when she said her name, Eve pushed those thoughts away. "It's nice to meet you. I'm Eve. I was also on the nautiloid and now...well now I'd very much like to get rid of this monstrosity behind our eyes. I can HEAL, but not something like this. This is far too complex for me. You wouldn't...by any chance know of where we might be able to find one?"
【💣】— ❝Hah! No.❞ She replied. ❝Or, well... we're near fresh water, so there HAS to be a settlement or village nearby or something.❞
———-> Somehow, the mysterious monk could at least recall certain tidbits on the basics of humanoid civilization, despite not recalling anything of her past. Maybe she had been some type of traveler before, or a scout or ranger?
———-> ❝I recommend we look downriver, specifically. Even if we don't find anybody, if we keep following the river, we'll reach a dam or reservoir, and that'll definitely have people there.❞
What Kind of Hot Are You?
pink panther hot
you're a modern queen. you sit to the side of the dance floor and drink out of martini glasses, a perfect vantage point to look over your court. you like to see the way people's eyes linger on you, hoping you'll see them, that they'll gain your approval. you are offered drinks by many overeager servants throughout the night. when you finally join the ball, the sea of people parts just for you, and you hear the nervous titters of the crowd who are so captivated by what you'll do next.

‒‒‒‒‒‒‒‒‒ The Tiefling refugees had been friendly enough party hosts (or guests, considering it was *their* camp,) but eventually, Yunae tired of socialising, and quietly dipped out.
They crossed the small, shallow river by hopping from stone to stone, and escaped to a small, secluded enough clearing; sheet music book in one hand, viola in the other.
The bard was not too far to be out of ear-shot, however, purposefully, so in case they needed to call for help, help wouldn't be too far away. Wyll would probably be the first to hear and approach, given he was just on the other side of the creek-- again, on purpose, since Wyll seemed like he was the most trustworthy out of all of their group.
Their eyes focused on the sheet music, darkvision holding no problem with the moonlight, and methodically, experimentally, began to play.
【💣】— Cottonbelle, the heroine of the party, was living it up to the fullest. Wine was drank, dancing was had, but, with Alfira gone, there was a somber lack of music.
———-> "She's gone and it's all your doing," The Urge spoke, "what is this guilt you're feeling? You should be proud, it's your inheritance, after all." Suddenly, the monk didn't feel so much like partying.
———-> Not without music, at least. That would definitely fix things and stop making her feel shitty. Where was Yunae? They were a bard, sometimes, she thought. She could have sworn she saw them earlier.
———-> She couldn't see them, but she heard them, clear as night, across the river. Sliding away from the party herself, she decided to go see what they were up to.
———-> ❝You should be playing that at the party, not here where nobody can hear it.❞ Cotton spoke, who was silent as a shadow upon approach until she said something.
