crow wife story where u help a crow out once and then a pretty gremlin with messy black hair shows up and causes problems in your house but also brings you like, jewelry and trinkets and you are like "where did you get this" and they are like "dont worry about it!"

[anonymousalchemist]

eventually you get curious about the kaching kaching and you follow her out when she leaves and yep there it is she's turning into a crow and stealing people's shit. and then she catches u catching her stealing and shes like 'ah shit. its all over for me" but then ur like "no actually i think its hot as fuck that you steal" this is not a tragedy story its a story about supporting your new wife at her crow based theft

Do you enjoy gothic horror, angsty crime families, and most importantly, crows?

Then do we have the AP for you!

Tales from Beyond: Crow Lane is a weekly gothic horror actual-play livestream following the Crowcolts, one of the most famed and feared criminal enterprises in the galaxy. For decades, they've built up their business to the point of becoming practically untouchable-- or so they thought. Now, an intruder on the grounds of their home and even in their very dreams has shaken them to their core, unearthing parts of their past better left forgotten.

Join us every Sunday at twitch.tv/starlighttales as this murder of misfits tries to survive what comes next...

Thoughts and ideas of crow lane:

So this is just all my ideas of all the shit that is happening in @starlighttales tales from beyond: crow lane.

So one dumb thought I had was that wallow was crow perched on the tree that the other birds are complementing.

Another thought (and one I have shared with starlight tales on here) is Wallow is either a owlbear, kenku, aarakocra or a changeling. While we currently don’t know, I am mainly thinking owlbear or changeling.

An idea I have yet to bring up is Wallow could possibly have different deceased family members memories implanted. I’m not saying all of them but for the 2nd dream it seems a bit too exact for it to not be a possible memory.

More will be added as I think of them but yeah.

49. For willow? Tree hair seems like it would be hard to maintain

49. how often do they cut their hair, if at all?

Willow's hair pretty much reaches their shins, so they only cut it when it starts dragging along the ground. Otherwise as long as they take enough time to stand in the rain and sunshine, his hair maintains itself for the most part! They often shed leaves wherever they go, especially if feeling particularly anxious 😭

dnd character questions

[jessbret]

Ok, so, Imma need the story of Tennant deciding to grow a Dad 'Stache. Was it on a whim? Did someone else inspire him? Does it make him feel more mature?

honestly I think when the twins were born he didn't have time to shave for like three months, got experimental whilst doing a tidy-up and left the stache, and was bullied so severely by the rest of the fam that he didn't try again until the whole beard had grown back and it stuck!
