Gimme 2 and 13 for Mu.

your cleric you miss. 1, 9, 17

MU
2: it's how peaceful he always looks and that small smile he wears when all is Well.

13: My favourite headcanon for him is that he just keeps ancient busted-ass furniture in Aries Temple and keeps sleeping in the armchair Shion left behind

SNOWDROP, MY CLERIC

1: My favourite thing about playing her was that she was uncomplicated; she wasn't simple, just uncomplicated with no real anxieties or baggage. She was just happy to be in the moment, and be helpful and to love.

9: the At-The-Table funniest play I ever made with her was thus: We were on one platform and our BBEG was on another, separating us was a moat full of angry spirits. The party had to make Charisma saves to cross safely without getting possessed.

I rolled very low initiative that fight so most of the party was balls-deep in Spoopies by the time I went.

Snowie looked at the problem, took two steps back and then a running leap right into the middle of the Ghostmoat, casting Turn Undead at the apex of the jump

....but I rolled really low on the athletics check, too

so she made a mighty jump......but only got about 5 feet across and landed on her face and still parted the ghosts like they were the Red Sea

and I played the rest of the session holding my nose like it was broken/bleeding and talking to match

17: My favourite memory of Snowdrop was some time later, when the party had some downtime to enjoy the fact that they'd bought a city-block worth of property. Our Paladin, a Warforged, had taken up an interest in gardening, and had also found a Pot of Awakening.

As an experiment, he planted a small shrub in the pot.

A few days later, Snowie had swung by the city's library to find some books about gardening for Silverfist, and she walked into him talking to his awakened shrub for the first time, and he asked Snowie what he should name it, as he'd never really named anything before - even his own name was more descriptive than anything

so Snowie sat with him and explained that very often, Tieflings chose their own names when they came of age, and often named themselves after a quality or virtue that they wished to emulate - even Snowie named herself after the first flowers to bloom in late winter/early spring, because she wished to carry with her the idea of hope and purity

and so Silverfist sat and thought and thought and thought and turned back to his plant and said "Then I will name you Kindness."
