hello subway customer unfortunately this is my tumblr inbox and not a subway establishment. but i can give you an 🍎 apple

y'know humans being space orcs in a fic with benrey is funny because that implies Gordon is somehow weirder

So excited to see how that happens lol

Also I like that Benrey's species also seems to have a pack-bonding instinct, apparently that's not just a human thing lol <3

poor alien so lonely </3

But has a friend now!

GIGGLING yeah it's been really fun to write so far (even if I've barely gotten around to it yet but shh /silly)

I imagine Benrey's species is very pack based! To me it seems Xen is such a hostile enviroment, it makes sense for the life there to evolve in pacts together to stay safe. It get's touched on a bit in the fic itself so I won't go into much detail, but they haven't been having the best time :)

I'm glad you're excited for it GIGGLING ! This probably has been the funnest I've had writing something in a while, and for sure the longest giggling :)

alright let’s try this again. 💘💯

💘 HEART WITH ARROW — what and/or who do(es) your oc consider the most important to them?

oohhhhh this is a hard one . at one point, for most of jastras life, it was nym. but during the actual story bit .... its between lys and pip. id probably say pip out of the two, mostly because of the fact that. pip knows sort of What Happened with nym, meanwhile jas still doesnt feel like he knows lys after all the time apart

💯 HUNDRED POINTS SYMBOL — share three random facts about your oc that others may not know.

he's actually plural! i havent talked about it much, but he has two headmates -- daisy and kor!

despite their strained relationship with nym, they still keep a custom engraved ring that he gifted them. its one half of a set the two got together

she has a photo folded up in her pocket of her, lys, and pip. she probably considers it her most important item :}

(ask game here)

hi yeah youre not getting that /SILLY REF

[adudelol]

OC questions:

If they were weapons what type of weapon would they be vs what type of weapon do they actually use

Are any of them plant fans?

How do they think magic works/what do they think of it?

OHHH TY TY yippee emoji

okay this got super long oopsies. my rambling

a little description of these guys though for context!

the party! jastra -- he/she/they red dragonborn, fighter/paladin multiclass. sister is lyarissa! she's also a system (her alters are daisy (she/her) and kor (he/him) :D) lyarissa -- she/her human, artificer. sibling is jastra! :D maria -- it/any changling (who stays hidden as a human), druid. she's actually the princess! (well, sort of) cairo -- he/they human, bard pip -- any pronouns mousefolk, rogue. i didn't answer any questions for them since they belong to @ pjskye (<3), but they're in the party!

and finally,

nym -- he/him githyanki, fighter/warlock multiclass. the main antagonist to the party

okay so for jastra (he/she/they). i think she would a greatsword, since theyre often seen with loyal protectors. her main weapon is a rapier!

they LOVE plants. growing up in a snowy town where snow was on the ground like 8-10 months of the year they love seeing plants and flowers and ferns and just anything nature provides!

for magic he does NOT know how it works at all. hes a fighter, using his fists and claws -- magic users look like theyre straight up pulling at the strings of reality. that is until he starts to multiclass into a paladin, connecting to the goddess sune and hes able to do some magic like that. still does not understand how non paladins/clerics do magic though /SILLY

lyarissa (she/her) hmm. i think as a weapon she would be something quick and nimble? honestly i can see like a whip or something similar to that. her main weapon she uses is a pair of daggers, so something similar!

for plants lys is very similar to jastra since they grew up in the same town!* (for the most part. ignore the kidnapping /SILLY). i feel like she's not as whimsical about it as jastra is but she can still appreciate the beauty in it -- she specifically likes seeing the leaves change color in autumn

magic to her... hmmm. she's an artificer, so i think she sees magic in a different way than other typical casters. she builds trinkets and such to cast different spells, unable to harvest the magic from the earth herself but is able to help channel it

Nym (he/him) is definitely some sort of battle axe or those battle hammers. hard hitting and terrifying. his main weapon is a scimitar.

he used to love reading about plants and nature growing up, but as he got older deemed it to "childish"

for magic hm. he multiclasses into warlock, and gets a (very not great at all) patron. i think the way he seems magic is these black corrupted roots he can pull out of the earth and manipulate into his spells because he sacrificed a part of himself to be able to see it

Maria (it/any) i don't have worked out as well as the others. the weapon it would be would be something light, like some sort of like spear maybe? its weapon is a quarterstaff, so once again relatively similar to itself

maria is a DRUID ae LOVES plants ask aer about ANYTHING and ae will have an ANSWER. you might get a 20 minute tedtalk about the plant(s/similar ones that you shouldnt get confused with!)

magic is THE earth for cure. cures magic is a lot brighter than the corrupted rot nym deals with. cure can see it moving everywhere -- dancing through tree branches, swimming through the wind. magic helps keep the world moving.

cairo(he/they) i also don't have down as solid. i cant see him as any weapon specifically -- simply the embodiment of "why don't we talk this out and avoid any fights?". his weapon is a fiddle he made that can pull apart to be a bow.

plants... i see them growing up in an area where they already were surrounded by a lot of nature. it sort of grew dull on them i imagine, sort of like how people who live by the beach dont realize/remember how beautiful the ocean/sea is because theyre so used to it? i think like that for cairo

for magic... hes a bard, so i think he never really noticed magic flowing until he started playing music. he got really interested in it, and i imagine its one of the main reasons he joins the party is to learn about how that magic works (with a lot of the help of maria haha)
