[OOC] Disney & Dragons 5e

[Lucius Cypher]

@rush99999@Crimson Flame@LuckyLudor@InnerFlame@Lucius Cypher

The locations are finally complete! Sorry for the wait, everyone. ^^"
It's time for me to start on the beginning IC post!

But before that...after much mulling and thinking, I think it might be best to let you guys have a say: Where you would you like your characters to first meet and begin your adventures?

@Benzaiten
I wanted to check in with you. Are you still interested? ^^"

@Guardian Angel Haruki

I vote we get the Alice in Wonderland treatment and end up in in whack ass dream land.

@Lucius Cypher
By the way, can I just say I love the delicious irony of the Great Stone Dragon you came up with? Especially with the context of Mushu's actions and motivations.

@Double

Happy ya like it! yeah, I def designed the stone dragon in a sorta compare/contrast with Mushu, as both are deceivers, but different in how and why they help the Fa family. Example, the stone dragon would've made Mulan leave as soon as Shang kicked "Ping" out from the military camp. As much as he wants to help Mulan as a person, his priority would be to get her back home asap, not save China. Hindsight's 20/20 of course, it's not like Shi Long (my Stone Dragon) would've known the full threat of the Huns. So ultimately Shi Long wouldn't pass judgement on Mushu, appreciating his bravery and willingness to take responsibility, the very reason why he started helping the Fa family.

@Lucius Cypher

OK! That's interesting!

...Wonderland is certainly an option since Alice in Wonderland is one of Disney's earlier works (Yes, I'm talking about the animated version, not the Tim Burton versions). XD

Since we have four votes, I think I'll call it. The majority is now: Rolling for it.

I will include Tirasea and Wonderland as part of the choices that could be rolled. What I will not include are places the Characters just left, and places the Characters would have to travel through dangerous areas to get to.

So results list for a d8 is as follows...

1. Tirasea
2. Nevrastir
3. Etoile
4. Camelot
5. Glassial
6. Corona
7. The Empire of the Sun
8. Wonderland

If I roll an 8, I will be rerolling for when the Player Characters wake up...

Please wait, result will be posted soon...

[Guardian Angel Haruki]

The die has been rolled!

We got.....

....

...

7!
Looks like someone's groove is going to be thrown off!

[Guardian Angel Haruki]

Sorry for the wait on the first post. ^^"

I hope you guys don't mind, but I'll be leaning into the meta-humor (fourth wall breaking humor) of Emperor's New Groove for this location.

It'll be helpful for tutorials for those not as familiar with D&D 5e.

[Crimson Flame]

And posted. Hope I did Ariel Justice!

[Benzaiten]

Finally, a CS!!

“A warrior and healer alike
once shielded by a bright light
sets out to find a cure
for the isolation she had to endure”

Name: Kidagakash Nedakh

Kida's DND sheet
Stats rolled

Appearance:


Personality:
Kida is a curios personality. Hundreds of years ago, it is said she would have killed outsiders on the spot. But since then, her heart has softened, her mind has grown and her curiosity has peaked. Nowadays, Kida can extend her deep compassion she has for her own people to strangers as well, though she will always be somewhat reserved in their presence. She doesn't trust easily, especially when it comes to questions about herself or her place of origin, the sunken city Atlantis. She'd rather ask a hundred questions a minute without revealing a single word about herself. Kida can at times seems like an energetic bundle, almost child-like, while in other instances she will become calm, serious, calculated and controlled. This is a direct reflection of the youth and old age that battle within her. Following her religion, Kida strongly believes in the protection of all life. She will stray from killing if there's any other means to solve the problem. She has a deep spiritual connection to the Heart of Atlantis and her devotion to her faith and people is unshakable.

Backstory:
When Kida was just a child, she witnessed the destruction of Atlantis. The fraction of the city that didn't get destroyed was protected by the Heart of Atlantis, which pulled power from Kida's mother to safe the city. Ever since that moment, Atlantis has been washed away from the surface, seemingly forgotten and forever hidden.

The Atlanteans tried for some while to find a way to the surface but it was to no avail. And so they soon got used to their isolated but protected life. It is safe to say that Kida has not been met with much disagreement, hatred or diversity in her life, given her position and Atlantis' situation. Kida grew up generally beloved but with a heavy burden put on her shoulder. The older she grew, the weaker the Heart of Atlantis was beginning to get. Though the royal family shielded their citizens from the truth, Kida knew their power was waning. She tried many years to talk to her father and change his mind, to let her venture out to find a way to restore Atlantis to it's former glory, to find help because otherwise their people would begin to die.

With the king's health deteriorating fast and his death bed approaching, Kida became desperate. In her desire to safe her father, she set out to find the Heart of Atlantis and ask for guidance. When she finally deciphered where the Heart was hidden, Kida approached the Heart, knelt and prayed for guidance. The Heart responded in kind; Kida awoke in a different land with different customs. She is determined to find out what this means and how this new place can help Atlantis and safe her father.

I wish. . . to safe my father and bring Atlantis back to the surface so it can thrive once more.

This took ages because I kept changing Kida from a Life Domain Cleric to a Monk and back (and also tossing Meg around as a Warlock in my head). I have now decided to begin Kida as a monk. Her healing powers that she is used to are gone, her necklace has 'died' due to her being so far away from Atlantis and the Heart. I currently plan to give her at least one or two levels as a Life Domain Cleric to gain her connection to her "deity" back though.

[Guardian Angel Haruki]

@Benzaiten And Kida is accepted! XD Welcome to the game!

Feel free to post Kida in the Characters' Tab and post in the game when you are ready. XD

[LuckyLudor]

Sorry, I wasn't around to contribute to the starting location conversation. I got back from a short trip and immediately became sick with covid.

[Guardian Angel Haruki]

The party is just meeting each other, and I already love them.

[Lucius Cypher]

I'll try to get a post soon, ya'll are moving fast!

Sorry about that! ^^"
Don't rush yourself. Looking forward to your post! XD

@Guardian Angel Haruki

Good do know

Is there anything about them you love in particular or do you just love them in general?

@rush99999

In general so far.
I also see there is potential for comedy gold in the dialogue so far. XD

[LuckyLudor]

I'm just trying to stay on brand with Mabel's random dialogue (though she does tend to say funny things). Irl, I'm probably more of a Dipper.

[Crimson Flame]

I’ve been wanting to play Ariel in an RPG for a while.

[Guardian Angel Haruki]

I’ll wait for @Lucius Cypher before I post the next DM post. ^^”

[rush99999]

@Lucius Cypher

Just so you know, China is called Wuhou in this game.

[Guardian Angel Haruki]

And DM post is up!
It's a little shorter than I would have liked, but I was able to get one out before work. XD

[Crimson Flame]

Is this how I roll perception?

[Guardian Angel Haruki]

Is this how I roll perception?

@Crimson Flame

@Crimson Flame Not quite. ^^" Good thing I was just writing the below up before your post.

For Checks and Battles, we roll a d20. If the players need to roll a different die, I will let you know.

For the called Perception check, go ahead and roll a 1d20+2 in the Site's Dice Roller. Ariel gets a +2 bonus because she is proficient in Perception checks. Otherwise, any other check that calls for her Wisdom will be a straight roll.

Ariel's CS shows which skills she's proficient in and which ones she isn't in and what the bonuses to each skill is, depending on her stats and proficiencies. ^_^

I hope this helps!
