dnd sessions that make me go “oh I should reread my character backstory doc—how does hathym feel about his god again?”

#sola said #theladyth #is back to weekly games baybee #it was such a good session I’m losing my mind #hathym

dm keeps dropping worldbuilding lore documents that snipershot me directly. pantheon made entirely of heroes ascended to godhood and grappling w their immortality? vibes! god of the sea and goddess of the tempest are feuding actually? spicy! goddess of offensive warfare and god of defensive warfare are not the same and the emperor closes one temple’s door and opens the other when the nation begins to go on the warpath? hell yeah! signed languages and trade languages abound? ideal! sailor specific creole/pidgin becomes the official language of the navy? incredible showstopping effervescent!

#theladyth #GOD the sailor’s creole makes me so emo #(I’m playing a dwarf tempest cleric who got conscripted into the navy whose homeland is no longer in the empire. he can never go home.#his native language is the imperial tongue his second language is the sailor’s creole he doesn’t speak the language of his hometown anymore)#I am so emo over him and his crisis of faith ALREADY #sola said #hathym

AAAAAAAA WE LIVED BITCH

#sola said #ARC ONE FINALE OF THELADYTH CAMPAIGN #WE MADE IT #there's something going on with the gods and they're not answering. the traitor didn't succeed but not for any reason we can tell—the demons #aren't answering him either any more than the gods are answering us. n's house is sundered and her cousin betrayed them and they had to look #him in the eye as she slid her sword into his chest.#both clerics of the god of war look at each other unsure and war-weary already but the empress is at their door and so they have no choice #really and so they open the doors of the temple to her and theladyth is once more an empire at war.#I WAS NOT EXPECTING US TO MAKE IT #sailed through a storm + dungeon crawl + raced across the city + boss fight against N's cousin + boss fight on temple hill #all in one in game day #absolutely terrifying to be the primary healer going into the boss fight with two spell slots. total.#i think by the end of that literally everyone was on single digits of HP #having to make the decision whether to stabilize folks against the 5% chance of a nat 1 or hoping they hit the 5% chance of popping back up #on a nat 20 because that's better than what i can do for them! terrifying!#god. if anything had gone a little bit more wrong that very well could have been tpk. the adrenaline of this is off the charts #i'm having so much fun but also AAAAAAAA #theladyth #hathym

i love playing a cleric with zero bedside manner. in the span of ten minutes hathym jumped off a cliff, watched this sailor get oneshot via a cyclops smacking him in the head with a broken-off mast from his own ship, got him back up to full with one cure wounds, couldn’t find him a shock blanket so tossed him a waterskin full of cold leftover soup to sip on (“this isn’t water. it’s kind of spicy. take little sips”), left him behind so they could go cast max-damage shatter on a rock over a cave entrance because the party wanted to go murder the cyclops, then had a loud conversation with our party ranger about whether they should crack open the cyclops skull for brains to use in her leather tanning

#the #theladyth #campaign is going great. tempest clerics are excellent #sola said #hathym

i’m playing my dwarven tempest cleric for the first time and wanted to share my boy’s playlist <3 (under the cut!)

#i'm so excited to play this guy #it's a late roman/early byzantine inspired campaign and my first longer-running offline #also the sea and storm imagery goes hard in this playlist imho #hathym #theladyth #sola described #sola said

shoutout to tonight’s rolls being a nat 20, two nat ones, and a nineteen right off the bat

#sola said #it's not even just physical dice like i was switching between hathym's teal dice and just rolling on roll20 #one of those was me rolling contested insight (i am a cleric. i have plus six. i got a nat one) against the ranger (negative charisma. minus #two to deception. got a nat 20)#love a spicy start to a campaign #theladyth

truly carrying the wandering isles/hollow lands energy into this new game (oops became a divine caster. within 30 seconds of my character introduction someone asked, “dilf???”)

#sola said #theladyth

building my character for this new campaign and talking to new friends who are legitimately powerbuilders. it is so funny to see the look on their face when i say “i think you win dnd by crying in session”

#sola said #i think u win dnd by crying in session vs. i think u win dnd by making ur dm want to cry - fight #it takes all kinds! and i'm excited to play more combat so i think this campaign will be fun #i love this thing we've got going though #i help her write a character backstory that will justify her tasha's optional stat customization to our dm and she helps me make a character #who will function in combat #theladyth
