The Druid that Could

So, in a Homebrew 5e game a few years back, we were on our third big campaign, which was that we needed to find the source of corruption that was poisoning the life-force of the planet. Long story short, our party (Two Barbarians, a Rogue, Priest, and Druid(me)) find the source, which turns out to be a legendary Ancient Red Dragon. We proceed to fight it, and after getting our asses almost handed to us a few times, it looked like the end. However, that’s when I remembered I had two focusing talismans (found from the previous two campaigns, and had to role 2d8 for both to see how large the effect would be) that could be used to dramatically amplify any spell once a day - and the effects stacked. Also, we could duel-cast spells together, if we had a high enough 2d20 roll for it.

Me: I pull out my two focusing talismans, and begin to channel entangle/wall of thorns.

DM: confused: Alright, roll for the talismans, and the duel-cast.

Me: Rolls 4d8(for the two talismans) and 2d20 - 3 8’s 1 7 for the d4’s and 2 nat 20's 

DM: now worried: Alright, so what are you aiming at with the duel-cast?

Me: Directly at the mf dragon. I cast to bind it in the thorned entangle.

DM: Roll a d20 for it.

I roll, and got a nat 20

The DM rolls for a saving throw, and rolled a nat 1

DM, in utter disbelief: Not only did your spell work, and completely entangled the dragon in thorns the size of swords, but in it’s struggle to escape, the dragon was pierced and crushed to death. Congratulations, you just killed an end-game boss with almost full health in one move.

The rest of the table: bursts out laughing and cheering

Me: Laughing manically

Moral of the story: Never underestimate a druid that has two op focusing talismans.

“And this, lady and gents, is what we call a heartstopper!”  And a quick doodle of Justicar Ka’Sudan, the NPC that will be giving quests for the players of the game/campaign I’m still building. Just going to give players wholesome, not death filled adventures! c:  Did a red only version for fun c: 

Still working on building this game, but given there is only one major NPC, this guy, feel I need to devote time here and there to designing him up and giving him a personality so I can draw him good XD

Concept arts of OCs from my original setting, Obscuraverse! I did these as refs for those poking me back for refs when I was asking for em for characters of theres XD

From top the bottom we have the following: Azorath: Keeper of Memory: Mad god of the north. Out of his mind from horrific tortures and completely off his rocker, but he does try hard to be a “good” god….he’s just got a lot of trauma…

Rangoshimir: Guardian of the Present Time, wild man-child that has no concept of the past or the future, living only in the now. Impuslive but a hell of a fighter, he’s a pretty chill fish boi

Invishna’s avatar form that they use to speak with mortals. Real form Invishna is a terrifying gaping maw 8I Invishy is the god of oblivion that devours all to feed an unending hunger…and main god of the campaign I’m doing so their concept doubles up for that!

Anyways, enjoy!

…really quick,really crappy doodles I did to help me visualize/notetake for worldbuilding in Obscuraverse setting. Elves, along with many other “classic” fantasy races are extinct due to their gods being devoured and new deities in town not suffering them to live :< Elves were an “aesthetic” species as they were intentially designed to look certain ways by reigning deities to reflect on the god. Evolutionary species….weren’t made for the looks, but being able to survive in a niche ecosystem c: 

Windagians though are not related to elves. The Fae are descendants of the Windagians with the unseelie being the “oldest” subspecies of fae that shows the connection c: 

Fun fact: The Fae are actually a “throwback”evolution, that is, their appearance resembles Windagians pre-invishna era so they are sort of evolving out more feral c:

Doomist is disappointed and I needed to show you that.

A little progress on the RP game I’m building for play one day c: One of the mechanics is class evolution rather than say dual classes or a single classes with just more talents.  Windagians, the race that is played for the campaign, have different facial tats based on the job they have c:  So sat down to draw out the different tats for classes!  You pick a base class (Cleric, Warrior, Doctor, Scientist, Explorer) and depending on how you play the character, stats you put into the character, triggered events, you will climb the level trees. Each class has special abilities to unlock and unique playstyle that hybrid styles in interesting ways c: they also play with game mechanics, requiring players to keep an eye on a few things to get what they want. 

The last set, (Justicar, Merchant, Emissary) are special classes that can ONLY be gained during gameplay by special events and hitting a story “Sweet spot” so you gotta RP hardy to see if you might trigger into those ranks. Justicar in particular is a powerhouse class…but very hard to get it to trigger!

Anyways, hope you enjoy!

What if we could summon Yuria in Ariandel to aid her Lord of Londor and she must face her sister?

[yourplayersaidwhat]

DM: I need to write down Initiatives. (To druid) Remind me, what’s your camel’s name?

Bard, grinning maniacally: yeah, What’s you’re name, man?

Druid: *singing* Alexander Camelton. His name is Alexander Camelton. And there’s a million things -

*collective groaning from the rest of the party*

Inktober 31: Everchild The children who died young through the cruel machimas of unfit parents, the ones murdered, the ones who life was stolen from, find a new life within the maw of Invishna. The guardian of the children grants them eternal form, able to frolic and play for an eternity never aging…. To even harm one accidentally will only bring doom. Priestess Sha’Lanal

AND I DID IT! This is the first year I finished Inktober ; w ; I did it at last! I feel really accomplished and pumped! It really helped me to get out a slump, just to….create things ^^

This last one is the everchild, an enemy that can and will attack players but they CANNOT harm or fight back against or else get an instant game over pretty much as the big god protects em. Also the bells they wear stop making a noise when they die….which alerts the maw lords that watch em. An interesting enemy to be sure…and creepy XD 

[macabrecabra]

Inktober 21: Fleshlords The fleshlords are prideful creatures that are reluctant to follow commands and have only a self-serving interest to share their “art” with others. Of course, that art is causing pain and reorganizing the body into shapes that are absolutely terrifying, but to each their own I suppose? Surgeon Oto’Mazas

I’m really proud of how this one came out! The whole design came out exactly how I want which is …rare 8I  These are upper tier enemies that are weak against those with high will, but devastating to those with weaker will. Can rip you apart and put your legs on your head while you are alive XD

….also being a demon type, one class IS able to summon/request their aid in battle at high levels c: FUN FACT: The outfit design of one of the classes IS based on the fleshlord’s “look” as a homage to their fleshripping abilities XD

[macabrecabra]

Inktober 20: Lullaby Spider 

These spiders can mimic the voices of others and sing so sweetly in the tunnels then caress their prey gently with hands of soft flesh, taking from past victims, right before they put the poor soul to sleep forever… Surgeon Oto’Mazas

I had the sketch for this one for a while but…spiders creep me out XD then I made it worse by giving it little hands it takes from people it kills to gently touch people with c:

I’m half expecting player characters in this campaign to huddle in a corner and cry about having to confront these beasts I make XD; 

Managed to catch up on inktober despite pounding headache though ; w ;

[macabrecabra]

Inktober 19: Gnashhog  These huge amphibians are not dangerous for the claws or teeth but for the bloody magic resistant slime on their body and the wretched stickiness of their tongues. Also big. Big enough to eat those annoying lizard mosquitoes… Scoutmaster Yan’Kojak

At the start of inktober, I did the baby and the juvenile form for days 1 and 2…but never got around to getting the adult to how I liked…BUT NOW it is here! And they a big boy!

[macabrecabra]

Inktober Day 18: The Tormented  To those that fall and offend the maw  will soon be nothing more than flesh to gnaw The god of teeth will laugh in glee  For now in their realm, sinners cannot flee And this, dear child, is what they will begin To sew sinners within their own skin Then pull their organs out through their legs And no matter how for death a sinner begs There is no mercy from the god of teeth, the god of hunger And the tormented will live only longer and longer…. Windagian Children’s Rhyme; Fate of Sinners 

A reminder that the god of the this campaign, Invishna, is pretty hardcore when it comes to laying down the law against those that doth offend them. As far as retribution goes, Invishna is immediate and there is no bargaining until you are thrown out before em. One of the mechanics of the game is more or less keeping your “brownie points” with said deity high enough to get perks here and there. The opposite of that is well….closer to ending up a tormented XD
