#achlis

Today's DnD session report:

Achlis can't cook. She rolled nat1 on tea. And nat2 for soup. Gods save us.

Also Althea went for different business cos she's just a simple ranger NPC...Achlis and Rieka behaved as if she was their mum and was leaving them forever.

Adreanna can cook. Mostly. Also she's the only rogue that's horrible in stealth actions.

Also I definitely NPCd my favourite genshin character into the game.

And Rieka the bard rickrolled us. Also it's the way she casts her healing spells...Never gonna give you up, never gonna let you down, never gonna turn around or desert you. Never gonna let you die, never gonna say goodbye, never gonna tell a lie or let them hurt you.

Anyways, it was a good session

The achlis is a strange creature from Roman mythology. It is said to resemble an elk, with a huge, hanging upper lip that forces it to graze backwards. Its back legs also possess no joints, meaning it must sleep standing up.

The achlis was first mentioned by Pliny the Elder in the 1st century BCE. He said that its stiff back legs made it easy prey for hunters.

Dnd session report (I accidentaly didn't report lsst time so out of context):

Achlis tried to wildshape twice but failed twice.

They met an undead child with memory issues (absolutely Qiqi from genshin impact)

Achlis traumatised both the child and her guardian.

Achlis got drunk after she convinced the tavern guy that she's old enough to drink.

Adreanna sabotaged her once.

Rieka had met a bard and bought him dinner.

#Achlis The Achlis was one of a number of strange creatures listed in Roman mythology by Pliny the Elder in the 1st century BC. He described it as saying it looked somewhat like an elk, though it bore some very strange characteristics. It was said its upper lip was so large that it had to graze backwards to avoid its lip falling over its mouth. A great problem because its back legs had no joints, forcing it to sleep standing up or leaning against a tree. This allowed hunters a relatively easy way to catch them. They chopped halfway through the tree where the creature slept and when the Achlis put any weight against it he fell onto the ground. Because of its back legs it could not get to its feet fast enough to get away.

In 77 A.D., Pliny the Elder wrote about a strange animal called the Achlis in his book Natural History. The animal he wrote about looked like an elk in appearance. However it had an abnormally long upper lip. This caused the animal to only be able to graze while walking backwards to avoid hurting itself when chewing. It also had no joints in its hind legs, despite the fact it was a fast runner. With no joints in its hind legs, the Achlis needed to lean against rocks or trees while sleeping.

This is another song that will be going on my album, and it's featuring trumpet as the lead! It's one of the weirder inspirations I've decided to try, and I think it turned out pretty well. I chose a floating, ballad-like melody to contrast the driving grooves of the guitars, and I like the way it contrasts. Some of the trumpet takes might be redone. Feedback is appreciated.
