For the D&D ask thing: 3, 8, 15! :D
I didn’t get to all of my D&D asks the other day, so I’m finishing them now!
3. What is your most recently bought dice?
The Mini (10mm) Trial By Fire set from Kraken Dice! They’re super pretty and also satisfyingly heavy.
8. What does your dream dice set look like?
Oh, I don’t know! I have so many right now (though not nearly as many as Laura Bailey, of course), I feel like I’m running out of rainbow
I’d really like a set of semi-precious stone dice--top picks being sapphire, amethyst, or peridot. I’d also love another set of metal dice--maybe a dark chrome set?
15. What is your characters background story?
I’ve already answered 15, but I’ll add in some additional fun facts about Bar and some in-game backstory/lore developments:
Bar’s grandfather made some sort of deal with a devil/demon, and Bar’s father is trying to learn more about that/cover it up/figure out how to prevent Tiefling births
Bar’s father had an affair with an opera singer, who then gave birth to a Tiefling girl (named Mayella--Bar’s half sister). The mother died recently, and Mayella ended up in the hands of a shady criminal organization known as the Red Hand (which, incidentally, is a group one of our party members was once a part of, and also the group responsible for (attempting to) kill another party member’s mentor...). The party saved Mayella, so now we have a teenager in tow.
Most of Bar’s family was forced to flee their home for a collection of complicated situational and political reasons that boil down to “demons are following us.” (Also Bar’s mom was fake dead for a bit)
Bar’s father/family funded an archaeological expedition which basically served as the game’s story/plot catalyst. The Red Hand were the other benefactors in the expedition...
Bar is easily distracted by new information or sheet music
accidentally Lawful Good? I meant to make a Neutral Good character, but ???
Primarily plays the violin, but is also fond of the flute
Is somehow the tallest member of our party despite being around 5′7″
Wears a three-piece suit. And a monocle. And a cravat.
Worships a goddess of knowledge (and is thinking about becoming a cleric)
Is best friends with a surly halfling rogue named Suzo
