Some people need to make a hard choice when deciding which two karaoke streams they want to listen to. I have no such weakness: I have two ears for a reason.

The hard part about trying to play some politically savvy mastermind is the assumption that the world operates off real world politics and not your DM’s politics.

Don't put too much stock in prophesies. At best they're full of shit, but more often than not they're one of those self-fullilling kinds. Plan for what happens afterwards instead.

A character isn't deep or compelling just because you let them get hurt a lot, are always depressed, or do morally questionable things.

Bio



If you're here either you're wondering what I'm doing cause I need to post in your RP (In which case, calm yo tits, I'll get around to it), or you want to know who I am. So let's begin.

I'm a college age asian kid who has more heart than he has senses. I'm still working out this whole "adulthood" thing, so until then I just do what I feel I must. As far as personality and traits go, I'm not one for boasting. So if there's anything redeeming about myself you'd have to figure it out in person or by word-of-mouth. Generally however I'm rather perverted, in the best and worst ways. nothing is too much until I've crossed the line, and that just means I've started.

As far as Roleplays I like, I have a thing for fantasy, though I'm also good for some types of sci-fi, supernatural, Modern, and slice-of-life. If it's open and sandbox, I'll probably join it. Never really been a romantic, I often chose to sexualize any notion of romantic encounters I come across. I generally write at Casual quality, though I have no issues with Free-Level Rp/Players and I can hold my own in Advance.

Location: Forests
Quest: Hunt for Food!
Current Activity: with Vola @Unkown58


Somehow, chopping through wood was harder than fighting that cat-snake. Or maybe it's just because Gren is still recovering from that fight and he wasn't at his full strength anyways. Either way Gren managed to get a nice sized stick for him and Vola. They could easily shave it down a bit into a spear, or maybe a new axe. Though Gren couldn't really be bothered to work on it anymore right now, his arms hurt from both his injuries and the strain of chopping that tree. He looked over to Vola to see how she was doing and it looks like she had managed to butcher up that beast pretty good! Now if only they knew how to start a fire. Gren knew how to get a spark from copper wires, but they were lacking wires right about now, and Gren only vaguely remembers what a copper wire even was. Either way he was willing to try things raw but he wasn't sure if that was the smartest thing to do, considering his current state.

Looking up into the sky Gren tried to get a gauge of how long they've been out. He would guess at least an hour, they did spend a bit of time in the village, but the sun was still up so he guessed it's still daytime. While trying to figure out how long they had until nightfall he noticed some smoke in the distance. He's pretty sure that's not the village and if it was, there ought to have been even more smoke, so maybe it's one of the other runts? He wasn't sure how willing they were to work with him and Vola, but surely even they would understand strength in numbers. Plus if they bring the tatzelwurm with them, that'll prove their strength. And if any had some funny ideas of taking their kill, Gren will have to show em that his axe ain't for show.

So figuring out something of a plan Gren looks to Vola. "Aye Vola, see that smoke? Bet it's one of da other runts! Maybe we can use dere fire ta cook da meat, and if they still around maybe they'll be willing ta help us." Of course the smoke could also have come from another orc, or maybe even an enemy. It was hard to say, but Gren felt it was still worth investigating. If nothing else, maybe they could light one of their sticks on fire and have a torch. Thinking in advance Gren does go ahead and take one of his own sticks and stab some leaves with it, so that if they had to make a run for it he can at least make sure his stick catches flame quickly and they can start their own fire elsewhere. "Let's go! Time's a wastin!" Picking up the axe, his sticks, and his make-shift torch, Gren heads in the direction of the smoke.
I'm alright. My short vacation is nearly over, so I'll be getting back to frantic and uncoordinated work soon.


Assuming you want an initiative from me too eventually, got a 5. Will work on a post to grab that sword for now.


Cool. I'll roll init for your enemy and post something for ya soonish, gotta sleep now

Current Activity: Chopping down a tree with Vola @Unkown58


Victory was painfully sweet for Gren. He looked down at his hands, bloodied and cut, and down at the cat-snake, mangled and dead. The thrill of the fight flowed through him. And then it stopped. All at once the pain hit him all over, from the scratches on his arms to the welt across his face. He was lucky the thing didn't get him in the eye, but it did leave a nasty scar that disfigured his nose. Immediately after Gren began to sob in pain. Despite being an orc, he was still a runt, and while he's had plenty of bumps and bruises this was the first time he had suffered any real injury, and it hurt. He let out a loud, painful wail as his injuries caused him to sit down and grip his face, attempting to somehow staunch the bleeding everywhere.

Fortunately, Vola was there. While she didn't help with the killing of the snake she was vital in Gren's recovery. Frankly, without any immediate access to any medical supplies or anything as basic as clean water and cloth, Gren had no idea how to treat his wounds beyond whatever he could think of in his panicked moment, so he was grateful that someone seemed to know what they were doing, or at least was willing to take care of him. Her positive affirmations helped Gren forget his pain and stop his crying, as he wanted to look tough in front of her. "... Okay. Glad you're here Vola."

After repositioning to a tree, Gren tries to stifle the bleeding with his hands. It wasn't really working. So Vola went to the tree and got some leaves, pressing them against his wounds. He supposed in the absence of proper medical equipment, leaves would have to do. Strangely enough it seemed to be working. A few minutes after Vola pressed the leaves to his arm, the bleeding stopped. His arm was numb, but otherwise his wounds were.... Probably not healed, but not getting worse at least. He tried not to pick at the leaves though a few did fall off as he stood up. "Danke again... As much as I wanna sit and relax now, we still got work ta do. I dun think the snake's gunna be good for what the boss wants, so we should just eat it. Maybe we can eat it raw? Just uh, try not to eat any poison. If it's like a normal snake, poison's probably in it's head. Can you try ta maybe get some meat an stuff off of it, while I cut tha wood?"

Trying to strengthen through his injuries, Gren intends to continue where he had left off and cut through the wood. Assuming there was no further interruption, he would take the stone axe and look at his arm. He had vaguely recalled evoking some sort of power to kill that snake, so he intends to use it again to try and hurry and harvest this tree. He does a bit of a stretch to get some feeling back into his arm as well as trying to stall for time so his ability is off cooldown, assuming that's how it works, before using his Breakthrough ability with the stone axe to cut some wood down from the tree, aiming for some of the larger branches that they could try sharpening down into a spear or something.
@Zeroth

Nito. I'll try to work on a post soon, probs have Gren cry for a bit before cutting some wood for him and Vola.
@Lucius Cypher (up to 60ft away) 10ft radius, Con Save (half damage on success) DC 12, and since it's Transmuted to Fire 3d8 damage, and the save is made at disadvantage for creatures made of inorganic materials. Also it's very very loud.

I imagine transmuting it to fire would make it look like a volcanic explosion. And also because of my feature any of the dolls if they are within 10feet of me take fire damage equal to half my level


Interesting, the dolls are made of a sort of porcelain materials, so I guess shatter would force them to do their save at dis. Go ahead and make your post, I'll respond once everyone has gone through their initiative.
Works for me. I believe you can hit each aristocrat with shatter, 20ft radius correct? What's the save and DC for your shatter?
That post is way too short for how long it took, but there we go! It is now everyone's turn. Since there are multiple battles happening in different locations, there's no post order, though in the future when you're all fighting together ideally everyone posts in order of initiative.
Rosalie stands 30ft away from the executioner, who has his sword drawn. Instinctively she could feel the energy flow through her body, begging to be unleashed. If she worried about matching this mysterious assailant blade-to-blade, she would also find that she had a rapier of her own on her hip. The puppets here seemed to fear the executioner, but she may have an unexpected ally among the crowd: those puppets that were about to be executed seem to be looking at Rosalie, and despite lacking any facial features they seemed more anticipating for some sort of signal from her, rather than targeting her for further vitriol. Perhaps if she could inspire them, they could in some way aid her?

Initiative:
15 - Rosalie
13 - Executioner (Healthy)




Julia would get the jump on the butcher, getting a bead on him as he comes out swinging. It was obvious that he wasn't the least bit interested in negotiating and wouldn't hesitate to cut through the other puppets just to get to her. Just as well the puppets were all trying to save themselves, caring nothing for Julia in order to save their own skins, even if it was ultimately only making things worse for themselves by blocking each other from escaping. While Julia would no doubt have to deal with the butcher herself, she might be able to take advantage of the crowd blocking a path out if she was willing to test her agility jumping off the tables and counters, allowing her some space to move while putting the crowd between her and the butcher. Whatever she does she'll need to do it quick, as the madman was within 20ft of her and could easily reach her from her current position.

Initiative
10 - Julia
9 - Butcher (Healthy)




Mercifully, the armed aristocrats were fairly far away from Maxwell, but they closed the distance quickly. Two of them moved forward, their blades drawn as they got close enough to attack him, but he may be able to stop them before they get to hurt him! The other two however stayed a bit behind, not engaging directly but taking on a defensive stance as if waiting to see what Maxwell will do. This ball room was fairly big, but there was plenty of obstacles around that Maxwell could use to try and put some space between him and the nobles. For starters the dinning table was quite large so if he could go under, over, or around it, he could use it to prevent the nobles from being able to engage him directly. However what he might also notice was the fancy chandeliers thirty feet above his head: while they hung by chains, maybe if he had the right spell he could easily melt said chains and cause them to fall onto the nobles below, hitting at least two of them. It was a risky move but one that could easily change the fight more in his favor.

Initiative
18 - Aristocrats (A: Healthy) (B: Healthy) (C: Healthy, Dodging) (D: Healthy, Dodging)
14 - Maxwell
<Snipped quote by Lucius Cypher>

Vola might know the theory, but she hasn't really had much reason to actually try to learn that skill. At best she might try to slam our two sharp rocks together to make a spark or rub two sticks together, but that could take a while. ^-^; She could try her skill, see if that might work? But it's not likely since she doesn't have any magic skills yet... Though, if it comes down to it, Gren and Vola didn't really make it far from camp, so while lets say Gren skins and cleans the kill, Vola could run back to camp with a branch, 'borrow' some fire and come back? But only after she thoroughly doctored Gren, her big sister instincts taking over XD


Might take Gren a while, even he doesn't have knowledge on skinning animals from a past life. If you want him to fillet fish or bird he could probably manage since he has cooked before, but he doesn't exactly encounter many snakes or cats in his mortal life.

Plus he's going to need some of that sistering because Gren may be an orc now, but he's also a runt and just got the dickerings claws and whipped out of him, so he's probably going to be spending a good while crying like a baby.
