Hey there! I've been following for ages but with social media suppressing posts I feel like I haven't been able to follow along for all the OC lore.
Would it be ok to ask for a brief explainer on each OC? Like just a little 'name, job, background' for each? I hope that's ok, sorry if it's too much work!
Aw, it’s not a problem at all! I’m flattered that you’d want to get to know my funky fellas. These 3 are my active OCs and what I can share on them.
These ones are from finished campaigns
I have more as I play alongside my friends a lot, but I’ll refrain from them for now. I tend to keep my OC roster as small as possible because I love the idea of finishing up a character’s story or just having reoccurring faces heehee
Time Jump.
Some (a lot) of time has passed and the boys invited their significant others to live with them.
This is Haylee Cotton; She is high-maintenance, ambitious, self-assured, loyal, and a Fashionista. She's not sure what she wants to do right now but she knows she's passionate about her passion for fashion.
Then we have Erik Finn; He is active, a dog lover, a vegetarian active, and high maintenance. Nobody knows what Erik does for money, he just brings it home...
howdy! its going alright. Started off poorly but it turned around! stopped by the mall & got some new headphones and i’ll be heading to the gym in a few. Hows your day going?
In short: No one knows. But Erik has heard that he is very pretty as he was getting peeled.
Longer answer & explanations underneath!
In his campaign there’s an anomaly called ‘The Shattered Portal’, which has been spreading and unleashing wild magic surges/storms all across Juelle and beyond. There are two categories of people who are affected by the Shattered Portal ;
Portal Touched ▸ individuals who were directly impacted/physically altered by a Shattered Portal event
Portal Adjacent ▸ individuals who were present when the Shattered Portal appeared, but were physically unaffected by the events that followed.
Erik is considered to be Portal Touched, he was taken from his brother and his home by a portal and disappeared for 4 years ( though to him, it only felt like 2 weeks… ). However, time wasn’t the only thing he lost.
Erik used to be a Circle of the Moon druid ( I got to play him as such in a little 3 shot before his campaign started ). He’s now a part of the Circle of the Blighted.
One of his before and after tokens for how his animal forms got effected by this change in Circles.
Erik came back with a tangle of brambles making up a circlet that hugs his cheeks and wraps around the back of his head. He cannot take this off.
When he was reintroduced to his brother, his right hand up to his elbow was degloved. The wound never bleeds and he insists that it doesn’t really hurt ( y’know, like a liar. )
He cannot really recall his missing time, it feels like one bad, never-ending drug trip thus making any details hazy at best.
Recently, Erik had a nightmare and was revisited by his mysterious ‘dream visitor’ who claimed that he was very pretty and began to peel the skin off of his entire neck. When he woke up it felt like he had hundreds of ants biting on his throat and neck & the party discovered that he was missing more skin. ( Happy, "welcome to level 7!" )
Now The Companions are in the process of researching who or what could have done this to him.
Some people think he's a warlock who is getting the shit end of a deal, others are researching creatures that are known to kidnap other people and take their magics for their own...
