For the ask meme Monday! Do multiples of six until you get through all your ocs/all the ones you want to talk about! And do at least one for Annie If you’re feeling brave
I do have to roast you for not knowing her name smh :/// yes I’ll answer for ALLIE. I’ll roll once and then also answer for Allie.
6. Do they collect anything/have a collection?
Sahov collects– and I cannot say this in a way you won’t laugh at– knots. What I mean by that is, he’s in charge of teaching new crew how to tie knots and ensuring their skills stay up to standard. It’s important on a ship! They keep the first knot each of them ever tied, to remind them that everyone has to grow from somewhere.
Allie collects interesting twigs and leaves. She has a little fancy display case in her bedroom, that she had court wizards imbue with preservative magic.
12. Your character has the opportunity to have one wish granted. Would the wish only benefit them, someone else (one person or multiple), or everyone? And what would that wish be?
Cap is Just A Lady, honestly. She’d wish she could teleport anywhere, at will and accurately, so she could switch between Adventure and Homebody whenever she wanted.
This is a big question for a character I barely know. At this point, I think Allie would wish for whatever curse that plagues the Shadar-Kai to be removed, so they can feel all their emotions again. (For those who don’t Know: in her world, she’s Shadowfell royalty, and the Shadar-Kai were cursed generations ago– they don’t really feel negative emotions anymore (that way they’re easier to rule over), and the royal family bears all of them. Allie got rage, which is why she’s a barbarian.
18. Does your character believe the ends justify the means? No matter who they have to step on to reach their goals?
Zize: definitively not. MFU strikes me as sort of a pseudo-philanthropist organization. He’s not opposed to collateral damage, but it’s practically muscle memory at this point to at least spell out pros and cons and costs, and pick the less destructive way. This has been especially important as they’ve become more public figures than private individuals.
Allie is next in line for the throne of [whatever the court is called that rules the Shadowfell]. She’s had it drilled into her from a young age that Ruling By All Means Necessary is a way of life. She’s lawful NEUTRAL for a reason.
24. Does magic exist in your character’s world, and can they use it? If so, how does it work?
this is D&D. Bly is a druid, Allie is a barbarian on a non magical path. Bly’s comes from her shield.
30. Does your character have a family? If so, do they get along well with them?
Topaz doesn’t really have one. He just sorta grew out of the ground.
Allie has a large, important family, and she gets along with most of them pretty well considering how she’s Magically Full Of Rage At Most Times. Internalize that shit, yo. She does have a particularly close relationship with her younger brother, aka Lex’s As Yet Unnamed Wizard, enough that they travel together. So that’s cool.
36. Tattoos. Do they have any? Do they want any?
Since I don’t expect to have to use it, I’m giving Ner a very cool tattoo– a magical compass on his bicep that actually moves. He’s chill with just having that, honestly.
Allie has a bunch! I sketched her and she has a rose on one shoulder and vines curling down her other arm. She probably has one for each member of her family, I just haven’t decided what yet.
42. From where or from what do they originate?
Topaz grew out of the ground from a pocket of energy left behind when someone Plane Shifted to the earth elemental plane.
Allie is from the shadowfell! She was just kinda. Born there.
48. Do they have any health conditions?
Osfyr has some lasting injuries from adventuring, including probably some tender/photosentitive skin from a few horrific dragon breaths.
Allie is pretty healthy, but I feel like she has to train and stretch constantly to not destroy her shoulders/arms swinging that huge hammer around.
54. I was gonna do all multiples of 6 but then i said fuck that so YEET
