Bio

Fell, she/they, English, currently obsessed with DnD and other ttrpgs. I do art sometimes. I am the GM of two tabletop roleplays on this very site:

- Beyond Moonlight's Reach, a story of four young dragons growing up in a post-apocalyptic fantasy world, and using the Powered by the Apocalypse game Epyllion.

- Search for Tir na Og, a DnD 5e campaign set in the Planescape setting where a group of strangers from all across the multiverse come together to solve the mystery about what happened to the Celtic gods after they and their homelands were mysteriously spirited away.

Epyllion summary for @Digizel
Chapter 1: A Sinking Feeling

- The drakes arrive at Stargaze's home island along with Garrock, searching for whatever is causing the island to slowly sink and what happened to the missing dragons

- Fellwing had a vision about brownies being infected by a strange illness and wants to ask Stargaze's adopted mother, Echo, about it. Skobeloff wants to learn Garrock's secrets so he offers to go explore the abandoned Tessith stronghold by himself to show he's independent. The group splits up.

- Skobeloff gets lost in the forest because a pixie is pulling tricks on him, but Skobeloff turns the tables, is able to get some pixie dust from the pixie and then is able to find the path back to the stronghold

- Fellwing, Stargaze, Shieldwing and Garrock also get lost, and run into the infected brownies. Fellwing uses magic to distract them and they get away. They also meet up with Alpin, a brownie who is not infected, who leads them to Echo's home

- Skobeloff enters the stronghold and meets a Tessith dragon named Fogdance. He can tell almost immediately that she has been corrupted by the Darkness, and that she is trying to feed him a sleeping potion so she can lock him away in a place that is 'safe'. He pretends to eat the sleeping potion and gets lead to a room where two other drakes, Tamba and Pleexem, are being held captive. They explain the situation: apparently, all the members of their party kept going missing until it was only the two of them and Fogdance were left. Fogdance went out looking for the missing dragons, but when she returned, she was super-protective of them and wouldn't let them leave.

- Skobeloff hatches a plan to make it seemed like he overdosed on the sleeping potion to snap Fogdance out of her shadow state. It works, and then asks Fogdance to explain what happened and why she ended up in her shadow state. She tells him her tragic backstory, which involves the loss of most of her first batch of eggs and her having a second batch of eggs with a dragon outside of her affinity clutch, all of which were then seemingly destroyed by a Monster.

- Fellwing, Shieldwing, Stargaze and Alpin enter Echo's home (Garrock has to stay outside), and find she's looking taking care of an injured drake called Kyte. Kyte used to be friends with Stonescale, the drake that bullied Shieldwing and Stargaze, but isn't anymore. Because Kyte's wing is injured, Stargaze uses her magic to heal it. Kyte is grateful.

- Skobeloff uses magic to teleport straight to the rest of the group and explains what happened. They meet up with Garrock again.

- Fellwing uses her powers to try and find where the rest of the missing dragons are, and sees a mysterious dark dragon-like thing in the center of the forest with the missing dragons unconscious. The creature is somehow able to see Fellwing through her vision and it scares her.

- Skobeloff, still wanting to learn Garrock's secrets, says the two of them should head back to the stronghold to meet up with Fogdance, Tamba and Pleexem. Garrock agrees, but not before getting into an argument with Fellwing.

- Skobeloff tries to bond with Garrock. It sort of works, he reveals that he is cousins with Topaz, one of the two dragons currently vying for the position of House Rothscar's head-of-house. Apparently they don't get on. Skobeloff wonders if Garrock's mother might know what happened to the last head-of-house.

- Stargaze, Shieldwing, Alpin, Kyte and Fellwing find the center of the forest, where the missing dragons and the mysterious dragon-like monster are. Stargaze gives an inspiring "the power of friendship" speech, and the creature rage quits, leaving the island.

- Skobeloff and Garrock reunited with the group, along with Fogdance, Tamba, Pleexem and some pixies, but the danger has already passed and Skobeloff is sad because he didn't get to do a cool 'save the day' thing. They then help free the passed out dragons and some pixies who are also unconscious. One of the dragons, Maug, who was the first dragon to go missing, won't wake up. The chapter ends.

Chapter 2: Scar Tissue
- Because the island is stilled somewhat corrupted, Skobeloff wants to do some magic to heal it before they leave. All the dragons and Echo do a magic ritual, which heals everyone on the island corrupted by the Darkness (except for Maug, who is still unconscious).

- Fellwing has a vision of a strange dragon in Northern Yves and a creature known as 'Bicorn' going to meet with an elemental. The visions ends with Bicorn seemingly killing the elemental.

- Echo gives Stargaze a magical stone that will allow her or any of the group to contact her if need be. The group then starts their flight back to the Capitol to tell the Council what happened.

- During the flight, Skobeloff realises that Fogdance, who was the main conduit of the ritual, has now gotten magically older because she has to trade some of her life energy to make the ritual work. He feels guilty.

- The dragons talk on their way back to the Capitol. There is a brief argument about inter-House politics.

- The dragons land on Yves, near to where the Capitol is. There is a stronghold there, where some dragons seem to be doing flight training. As the group is discussing whether or not to take a rest, a dragon come over to them, attempts to glomp Garrock and fails. This is Rudrick, who is very obviously Garrock's sibling.

- That's it, you're now all caught up.
I am also ready to go.
Heyyyy guess who figured out his account's info again


Ayyyyye!

Yeah, you have returned at a very good time, my guy. Do you want a summary of what's happened or do you want to read through past posts yourself?
"I don't see the store that Charm mentioned earlier, though I am uncertain if we should trust them. They do appear to be working with or for Bavlorna and Charm did mention that she thought the hag should leave this area. We should keep moving and see if we can find anything that will help us."

Jub: Yep. They were definitely untrustworthy, and we should definitely not feel bad if anything awful happened to them. Not that I'm saying anything awful has happened to them.

Rory started to head towards the near by structure wondering what would be here and if Jub was having any luck with Brutrumukk.

Jub: Well, that depends on what you mean by "having any luck".
I'm also still here.
And thus likely begins Chapter 2's trend of me finally getting to debut some NPCs I've really been looking forward to you guys meeting.
As the group talks among themselves, Fellwing notices that the dragon that was staring at Garrock is making his way over to the group... and the first thing she notices as he gets close enough is that he looks very much like Garrock. He's a little chubbier, his scales and eyes are a different colour - reddish-brown and bright orange respectively - and he has a spade-like end to his tail as opposed to Garrock's club... but other than that, there is a unmistakable resemblance. Given this and that he seems to be about the same age as the grumpy Tessith warrior, Fellwing can safely bet he's Garrock's sibling, likely even from the same batch of eggs. He's currently eying Garrock, seemingly uncertain whether it's him or not. He looks hopeful, but Fellwing can also detect the tiniest hint of apprehension in his expression.

"A rest would probably be in the best interests of all of us," Vipereyes said after the younger dragons had spoke up. "My wings are not as young as they used to be." She glanced over at Alto, would simply nodded in agreement.

Garrock heaved a heavy sigh. "Guess it can't be helped," he muttered. "I suppose it's better to rest here than on the road, anyhow. Well, a small break won't kill us-"

"Garrock?" the dragon finally speaks, and in that instance, the whole group can see Garrock tense up in surprise before his expression becomes that of annoyance.

"Apparently I spoke too soon," he muttered flatly.

The mysterious dragon was moving quicker towards the group, practically bounding at a brisk pace that is surprising for a dragon his size. He looks almost like he's about to tackle Garrock, but somehow the Tessith dragon seems to anticipate this because he quickly steps out of the way, causing his doppelganger to fall face-down on the ground in the middle of the group. "Owwwww...." the dragon groans before slowly raising his head. "Whyyyyyy...? Why do you always do this?" He gives a loud sniff like he's upset, but it's easy for everyone to tell that it's most likely in jest.

"I'm carrying an injured dragon, Rudrick!" Garrock said. "If you had any sense between your horns, you'd have noticed that."

Rudrick, still on the ground, cranes his neck to see the unconscious Maug lying on Garrock's back. "Huh," he said. "My bad." He stands up and begins brushing the dirt off his scales.
Kyte: *Talks about how he feels stronger after Stargaze healed his wing*
Stargaze:


Yeah, I had a feeling she'd be happy about that xD
Skobeloff seized a position that gave him a good view of Yves, granting him +1 ongoing to roles that would help with. Such rolls might include surveying an area on the island's surface. (Having already seen it from afar, Skobeloff would have a few ideas on where to start looking.) or traversing the wilderness of Yves. (A bird's eye view of the island's wild places could have revealed a path or two.)


Huh... yeah, that actually might come in handy. That works.
'Snouthold' is great. That is it's canonical name now, thank you Rush.

But what exactly is Skobeloff trying to sieze a position on right now? I'm a little confused.
