6.1 ...huh
L'fuckingChaim
the gear set list has full job names now
L'fuckingChaim
I love Tataru
L'fuckingChaim
Tataru this outfit will CLEARLY not fit on Hyltbryda's body in ANY way
L'fuckingChaim
fuck I love her
L'fuckingChaim
she rules us all with an iron fist
L'fuckingChaim
[digression to make room in glamour dresser for new clothes, set up plate, dye clothes]
L'fuckingChaim
I really love the classical casting headpiece though
L'fuckingChaim
oh you can tell this merchant is an Asshole because he doesn't have an Indian accent
L'fuckingChaim
"what have you to offer in payment?" well I have "the continued presence of all of your teeth"
L'fuckingChaim
also what shirt are all these townsfolk wearing I Need it
L'fuckingChaim
...ah
L'fuckingChaim
this kid is working with him to drum up interest
L'fuckingChaim
that's why he's talking like a speech
L'fuckingChaim
ESTINIEN NO
L'fuckingChaim
YOU ARE NOT ALLOWED TO BUY THINGS
L'fuckingChaim
IT HAS BEEN FORBIDDEN
L'fuckingChaim
NOOOOO
L'fuckingChaim
god excuse me I'mma take my pet dragoon to the shops and get him some non-ragged garments
L'fuckingChaim
lmao the crooked shopkeep like, I am going to one of the hells for this
L'fuckingChaim
"cool cool definitely just scammed one of the heroes who saved all of existence, this is fine, not going to reflect badly on me when I am judged in the afterlife"
L'fuckingChaim
aww Estinien you enormous softy
L'fuckingChaim
I'm not sure how much more cash will help with a lot of the post-apoc situation, because supply chain disruption at every level, but it's true that people need food and shelter today
L'fuckingChaim
oh good Estinien wasn't WHOLLY taken in
L'fuckingChaim
the only correct response is "Now you've gone and made him cry"
L'fuckingChaim
teasing Estinien is always right
L'fuckingChaim
hm. I want to say fetch the twins, but in terms of party comp we're two DPS in a big scary world
L'fuckingChaim
ah. Thancred and Urianger are "busy"
L'fuckingChaim
...Estinien are you on the verge of adopting some children?
L'fuckingChaim
I wouldn't be that surprised
L'fuckingChaim
the foster kid to foster parent pipeline is real
L'fuckingChaim
GRAHA
L'fuckingChaim
the tail wiggles
L'fuckingChaim
dammit I keep just missing the good shots
L'fuckingChaim
I did, however, capture Shtola dropping a book on her own head
L'fuckingChaim
WHY DO NONE OF YOU NERDS PRACTICE BASIC SELF-CARE
L'fuckingChaim
YOU NEED TO BE PROPERLY SLEPT TO PROCESS INFORMATION
L'fuckingChaim
speaking of, why am I so fucking tired and unable to focus suddenly
L'fuckingChaim
...oh! at some point they've changed the (English) text for the Moenbryda minion!
L'fuckingChaim
it's not creepy anymore
skerple
oh BLESS
kikibug13
mao
L'fuckingChaim
ok here I am again
L'fuckingChaim
"I know not whence they acquired such knowledge, but the Lopporits now stand convinced that adventurers delight in treasure hunts" /kicks my three kumbhiraskin maps under the bed/ yeah! wild! where'd they get that idea!
L'fuckingChaim
oh! that was fast to dungeon
L'fuckingChaim
so. those were some mechanics.
L'fuckingChaim
that happened.
L'fuckingChaim
if curiosity kills the cat a THIRD time I'm gonna-
L'fuckingChaim
oh hi travel-size Vrtra
L'fuckingChaim
oh look. it's the sealed evil in a can.
L'fuckingChaim
or...sealed something
L'fuckingChaim
damn I missed Y'shtola's little evil smirk
L'fuckingChaim
all things considered, I'm not sure I'd necessarily call it sealed evil, but it is definitely...something you'd want to keep a very literal lid on
L'fuckingChaim
...this quest is called "A Brother's Grief"
L'fuckingChaim
and no one seems to know...where Azhdaha is
L'fuckingChaim
and the name of the dungeon...
L'fuckingChaim
voidsent make me sad these days
L'fuckingChaim
make me wonder who they used to be
L'fuckingChaim
G'raha: I consider myself well-versed in that period of history
[crystal tower noises]
L'fuckingChaim
*Azdaja is how we spell/pronounce it here
L'fuckingChaim
(p.s. nonbinary dragons are canon, dragons have no "sex")
L'fuckingChaim
good things about Varshahn: he is easier to hug than the fullsized model
L'fuckingChaim
less spiky
L'fuckingChaim
G'raha. G'raha you really put your foot in it.
L'fuckingChaim
lmao I guess when you rule a country the distinction between "secret dragon hoard" and "emergency treasury" is kind of. flexible.
L'fuckingChaim
...Golbez?
L'fuckingChaim
That's. That's Golbez.
L'fuckingChaim
I know that armor
L'fuckingChaim
(Golbez...the hero's older sibling)
L'fuckingChaim
(just. putting that out there.)
L'fuckingChaim
interrupted again by "dinner" and "setting the table" and "mom's home thank fuck"
L'fuckingChaim
wweh
L'fuckingChaim
I'm having emotions about Khalzahl being remembered by his fellow citizens for his life, not for what he became
L'fuckingChaim
and about caring for children, in his name
L'fuckingChaim
because...he became a blasphemy because he was trying so hard and caring so much
L'fuckingChaim
such that his failure to provide for others broke his heart
L'fuckingChaim
-- anyway! I think I can unlock the alliance raid now, so I'm gonna do that, because my FC is planning to run it together soonish
L'fuckingChaim
Rammbroes!
L'fuckingChaim
I wonder if he was bald(ing) when he got his Archonship, or if he shaved it all off for the tattoo
L'fuckingChaim
man there are just. so many realms.
L'fuckingChaim
some may even be...Forgotten Realms
L'fuckingChaim
"my animal companion is totally harmless" and other lies
L'fuckingChaim
that opo-opo IS going to try to kill us before we're through
L'fuckingChaim
oh shit this is GORGEOUS
L'fuckingChaim
I'm weak to neoclassical unfortunately
L'fuckingChaim
a bitch simply enjoys columns
L'fuckingChaim
lmao "omphalos" is literally "navel" in Greek
L'fuckingChaim
--ah he admits it!
L'fuckingChaim
Deryk just called it that because it sounds cooler
L'fuckingChaim
tempted to dress back up in - yeah I'mma go classical again real quick
L'fuckingChaim
anyway I live here now
L'fuckingChaim
is there. is there supposed to be a tiny golem here?
L'fuckingChaim
I can't target it
L'fuckingChaim
am I seeing someone else's minion?
L'fuckingChaim
oh! a tiny rabbit!
L'fuckingChaim
and I can't summon minion here
★ тяу-нαя∂уи
late but i think they were all in palaka tops
L'fuckingChaim
thanks!
L'fuckingChaim
I love having NPC friends who are nerds
L'fuckingChaim
because I love asking questions about the world and how it got to be this way
L'fuckingChaim
oooooh
L'fuckingChaim
I want one of THOSE
L'fuckingChaim
[immediately changes all swears to "Byregot's TITS"]
L'fuckingChaim
...okay my dude
L'fuckingChaim
you're gonna have to explain what a "divinity true" is
L'fuckingChaim
I'll kill my god if I have to. maybe even if I don't.
L'fuckingChaim
https://images.plurk.com/3u3qqWW7vHqXrYjZW79EzH.png they don't usually admit this so easily
L'fuckingChaim
love having Raha here to say "this is sus" for me
L'fuckingChaim
ok, got that unlocked
L'fuckingChaim
back to Shtola
L'fuckingChaim
she's Teaching a Lecture
L'fuckingChaim
OH
L'fuckingChaim
so most voidsent summoning is like what happened to the Scions!
L'fuckingChaim
a soul given mass through its own aether
L'fuckingChaim
or - ah! put in something
L'fuckingChaim
I love this shit
L'fuckingChaim
I ADORE thinking too hard about worldbuilding
L'fuckingChaim
and when the characters! are doing that! it's so good!
L'fuckingChaim
YSHTOLA GODDAMMIT
L'fuckingChaim
Vrtra: if you go through the voidgate you will die
Y'shtola: but consider: what if I didn't?
L'fuckingChaim
contemplates Vrtra's and Varshahn's different accents
L'fuckingChaim
though I guess Vrtra is usually speaking dravanian and/or psychically
L'fuckingChaim
his mouth does...not look great for language created by humanoids
L'fuckingChaim
...I could. go grab a couple natives of the 13th, if you want.
L'fuckingChaim
though I'm not at all sure how well I can bring them back here
L'fuckingChaim
lmao of course Sharlayan prohibited their work
L'fuckingChaim
...to be fair, "we made a murderdemon artificially!" is not a great. idea.
L'fuckingChaim
you don't have to be very hidebound at all to say, "no I DON'T think anyone should know this, actually"
L'fuckingChaim
Vrtra is having a time of it
L'fuckingChaim
...oh. Y'shtola's apprenticeship with Matoya was instead of a regular education, not in addition to it
L'fuckingChaim
as was Thancred's
L'fuckingChaim
Hyltbryda...also wonders what her life might have been like, if she had been afforded the opportunity to attend the Studium
L'fuckingChaim
https://images.plurk.com/5d9NSLeQK5JojQdzDRCS3B.png https://images.plurk.com/3iS6Eu70IRZtRSpBWc88aM.png I am with you 100% on the first one, but the second one is literally why it was banned
L'fuckingChaim
it's funny
L'fuckingChaim
Hyltbryda took so long to warm to Y'shtola because she saw her as the perfect Sharlayan, the brilliant academic who'd gotten everything Hyltbryda never had the chance to want
L'fuckingChaim
and after all this time, she's only now truly realizing that Y'shtola didn't get all that either
L'fuckingChaim
that she doesn't fit in perfectly
L'fuckingChaim
she didn't attend the Studium; her teacher is brilliant, but Matoya's name closes more doors than it opens
L'fuckingChaim
lmao Fourchenault will die if he expresses an emotion honestly
L'fuckingChaim
but he also did say, "these women saved all of our lives and indeed the concept of being alive, the least we can do is let them into the stacks, come the fuck on" to his colleagues
L'fuckingChaim
https://images.plurk.com/297peR3qE2knGTsnO2ECSN.png I don't need porn I have the concept of being here
L'fuckingChaim
oh no they have the journal of that goldsmith who made all the voidsent minions
L'fuckingChaim
I'm gonna move in here with Y'shtola
L'fuckingChaim
forget my house
L'fuckingChaim
only library now
L'fuckingChaim
Shtola, were you...were you allowed to just take that?
L'fuckingChaim
I assumed the forbidden library would be like a reference section
L'fuckingChaim
you may sit here with the books but they do not leave
L'fuckingChaim
Nidhana is ALSO a professional scientist/alchemist/magician and as such is ALL ABOUT the forbidden knowledge
L'fuckingChaim
what is research if not seeking out forbidden knowledge?
L'fuckingChaim
just generally it's forbidden by, like, "the structure of reality"
L'fuckingChaim
or "the limitations of the human eye"
L'fuckingChaim
good job Y'shtola testing if we can be warded or will immediately die
L'fuckingChaim
oh is she gonna
L'fuckingChaim
SHE DID
L'fuckingChaim
Estinien thinks she's been possessed...I love this idiot
L'fuckingChaim
oh no
L'fuckingChaim
she thinks they're so embarrassing
L'fuckingChaim
Y'shtola you need to remember how many (or how few) of the people present could create such a thing, ever, let alone as a child
L'fuckingChaim
how come I don't get to protect Nidhana, Hyltbryda pouts internally
L'fuckingChaim
Estinien can't even tank
L'fuckingChaim
well those results were conclusive
L'fuckingChaim
I appreciate that even though they're embarrassing, Y'shtola is gentle with the nixies
L'fuckingChaim
you gotta, especially with things/creatures/beings you create only to suffer and die
L'fuckingChaim
ugh this dragon perpetual-youngest-child
L'fuckingChaim
--fuck
L'fuckingChaim
it's Jiang Cheng if he were a billion years old and also 98% more able to express his thoughts and feelings
L'fuckingChaim
anyway
L'fuckingChaim
I am a sucker for characters who knowingly and willingly sacrifice personal relationships for the people they feel responsible for
L'fuckingChaim
-- and I am also crying a little (a lot) about the Radiant Host appearing to help
L'fuckingChaim
https://images.plurk.com/iVbJ0JFwzINe86aGcRx1z.png
★ тяу-нαя∂уи
THEY CARE HE
L'fuckingChaim
THEY CARE HE
L'fuckingChaim
https://images.plurk.com/5YNxaxubWA1YefbxTVy9B2.png his baby brother energy is SO POWERFUL that him being an ancient dragon means nothing
L'fuckingChaim
reciprocity
L'fuckingChaim
I'm tearing up about, idk, Vrtra choosing to care for the people of Thavnair for so long, instead of having dragon children, instead of continuing to search for his sister, and - it wasn't wasted
L'fuckingChaim
I mean, love is never wasted, but
L'fuckingChaim
it's a great and beautiful thing to have your love returned in full measure
L'fuckingChaim
(and, yes, I feel extra about this because it's not romantic or sexual, which often get this treatment)
L'fuckingChaim
I'm crying about the social contract
L'fuckingChaim
this is who I am as a person
L'fuckingChaim
Estinien: it's not like I care about Vrtra or anything! his sighing was just frightening travelers, that's all!
L'fuckingChaim
everyone: [eyeroll]
L'fuckingChaim
Estinien: ...also when I was possessed by Nidhogg I experienced dragongrief, and it sucked, and I want to protect Vrtra from that
L'fuckingChaim
this sure is a team
L'fuckingChaim
tank? healer? who needs 'em
★ тяу-нαя∂уи
no heal only dps
L'fuckingChaim
akh morn is a mitigation ability
★ тяу-нαя∂уи
can't take damage if nothing's alive to deal it
★ тяу-нαя∂уи
/taps head
L'fuckingChaim
oh shit we're back here
L'fuckingChaim
Zenos, did you fucking
L'fuckingChaim
whatever the fuck this is
L'fuckingChaim
...I guess that's what happens when you're actively bonded to a voidsent and die?
L'fuckingChaim
OKAY
L'fuckingChaim
whew
L'fuckingChaim
that was achievement drop
L'fuckingChaim
panting for breath
