thinking about Aphmau characters in a dnd-esque setting and made a few in dndbeyond using the 2024 ruleset
here's the characters I've done so far:
Aphmau - Aasimar - lvl 10 Ranger(2)/Warlock(Celestial patron, 8) - Wayfarer background - Chaotic Good 14 str, 14 dex, 13 con, 12 int, 14 wis, 15 cha An urchin on the streets of Phoenix Drop, a small coastal town, who accidentally gets the attention of a divine entity who commands her to help protect the region as an Adventurer, leading her to start putting a team together to help her
Zenix - Human - lvl 8 Rogue(Thief) - Criminal background - Chaotic Neutral 12 str, 16 dex, 13 con, 14 int, 13 wis, 14 cha genuinely just a little shit. an urchin on the streets of Phoenix Drop who steals to survive, and sometimes also for fun. Completely by accident, he gets himself wrapped up in the adventuring business when Aphmau starts putting a team together
Garroth - Human - lvl 14 Paladin(Oath of Devotion) - Noble background - Lawful Neutral 18 str, 10 dex, 14 con, 12 int, 12 wis, 15 cha Originally, he swore his oath to his younger brother, the heir to O'khasis, but after both of them abandoned their home, they were suddenly recruited by an ambitious new adventurer to join her team, accepting without any other real options
Zane - Human - lvl 13 Cleric(Grave Domain, 10)/Warlock(Fiend patron, 3) - Noble background - Neutral 8 str, 10 dex, 12 con, 15 int, 16 wis, 18 cha The former heir of O'khasis who may or may not have made a deal with a literal devil (oops). On the run with his other brother and sworn protector, eventually getting recruited to a newly forming adventurer's group
Laurance - Half-elf (woodland elf) - lvl 10 rogue(Arcane Trickster, 4)/fighter(Eldritch Knight, 6) - Merchant background - Chaotic Good 12 str, 15 dex, 13 con, 14 int, 11 wis, 16 cha A charming merchant's son from Meteli, also extremely cursed. He was driven from his hometown because of the destructive nature of the magic he was cursed with, eventually being accepted into the little adventurer's group in Phoenix Drop
Katelyn - Human - lvl 12 Monk(Warrior of the Elements, 8)/Barbarian (Berserker, 4) - Soldier background - Lawful Neutral 16 str, 16 dex, 14 con, 13 int, 14 wis, 10 cha A former guard in O'khasis, was dismissed after the sudden death of her closest friend, now caring for his daughter in the quiet town of Phoenix Drop. Until that daughter disappeared one night, and Katelyn was scouted by the newly gathering adventurer's group
Aaron - Human(??) - lvl 14 Barbarian(Wild Heart) - Noble background - Neutral 16 str, 15 dex, 15 con, 14 int - 13 wis, 10 cha Doesn't live in or even near Phoenix Drop, a feral man living in the tundra to the south who gets picked up by the group a little later on their adventures. Once, he was the Lord of a prosperous town, until a fateful night that the whole town either vanished or died. Rumours say the former lord is cursed with lycanthropy and killed them all himself in a blind rage
That's all I've got for the moment. Gonna make more later, also might turn it into a fanfic, idk
there is like, the vaguest semblance of a plot in my head rn
I have no idea if this is actually gonna go anywhere, but it was fun.
anyway, let me know what classes/subclasses I should make other characters cuz I am 100% making more of these it's very fun
edit: here's part two now that's its up
worst thing a video game can do is show me a woman who has been traumatized and/or abused because I will immediately start vibrating thinking about how badly I want to stop playing the game and write a fanfic of her having the most disgustingly wholesome and loving lesbian sex anyone has ever seen
Blood in Roses & Wizardess Heart
THIS IS WHY I HEADCANON THESE TWO GAMES TAKE PLACE IN THE SAME WORLD
"Hinomoto" that explains it all
The struggle is real...
When you read a fic by @messy-insomniac-bookgirl for the Jupiter Ascending fandom and fall firmly down the rabbit hole because - FUDGE I love that film! - only to be mildly 'meh' at what's on offer.
Then you make the mistake of watching the movie again because "Yes, please!" and come away with an idea that you're not going to write.
Nope. Not happening.
Never.
No.

800 words later you've started a new WIP.
Think about it, what if the Boiling Isles are on a isolated part of Discworld?
A little sketch up of my boy Severin.
