Abraxas Hillrunner – Level 9

fantasticworldspod — Tue, 22 Jun 2021 22:37:00 +0000

Abraxas Hillrunner

Much of his childhood was spent in the Lands of the Linnorm Kings. Therefore, he was more than thrilled when he heard and answered the call to serve the natural world. Since then he has traveled far from his homeland and his beloved family.

Abraxas revels in travel and exploration. Because of his upbringing, he is most at home in the hills and mountainous terrain. He is also comfortable with the cold. He spends much of his time in the wilderness, and that is the way he likes it. He is easy going and inquisitive; useful traits for a traveler. His calling keeps him primarily in the wilds. He can be quite the fish out of water on the rare visit to “civilization.”

Alignment Statement:

“When nature calls, I reply. When nature speaks, I listen. And when nature angers, I destroy.” (Paizo Publishing, Call of the Wild)

Values:

Duty
His sacred duty is to serve nature. He has been called by the natural forces of Golarion. They are worthy of attention and respect. His oath to it must come first. When not in conflict with his sacred duty, he holds the wisdom of the law of the pack.

Adventure
His ancestors traveled the entire span of the Kodar mountain. Travel is in his blood. He delights in discovery and adventure.

Life
All things exist in balance. As the sun rises, so too it must set. He eats the flesh of his prey as he in turn will be devoured. Magic is the gift of his devotion; he will use it to harm or heal. The undead are an affront to nature and must be destroyed or laid to rest.

Bonds:

Guile, Innovation, and Intrigue. Pippa can enchant without the virtue of magic. How wonderful would it be to gracefully dance around the truth and fiction?
Getting to know you. Pippa is in my heart. In battle, we are in sync. When I move, she moves, we move. Out of combat, we laugh, cry, and endure. I have walked within her inner sanctum. But, I did spend our early travels thinking she was a princess. I speak the language of the fey and the air itself. Buwan spoke in her native tongue. Why the twinge of jealousy? There is much about my life I have not shared, by now I know revealing her true self is not part of her natural rhythm. I want to know and accept her true form as she has seen mine.
Andromeda is a child of balance. She drinks deeply from a wellspring of mysterious power. Its waters, alight with life on the surface and a strange hollowness at its deepest depths. Her footsteps are timid as a doe, her fangs know the endless hunger of a wolf. Andromeda is a child of imbalance. A light sip of the wellspring sends her to the bottomless depths, gasping for air. I will stand by her side whether she wanes or waxes.
The moon is a mixed blessing to my people. It provides light for the hunt, it grants us power in all our forms. It also empowers the bitter sting of silver and drives those we bite into madness. This Herald seems different from the Irresseni I have encountered. Will they prove a mixed blessing?
Hypocrisy. I have become the angry intolerant horde. The Herald has done nothing to earn my animosity. When we are threatened, he fights and bleeds with us. When we are confused, he offers insight and guidance. I must make more of an effort to keep my prejudices in check.
Legacy of the Moon. I learned much from The Herald in the brief time they chose to walk alongside this dangerous path. The first of which is to trust. I became the angry intolerant horde that I feared as a pup. I will endeavor to reach out to potential allies with hand outstretched not claws.
Legacy of the Void. Andromeda was an unexpected balm for my weary soul, heavy with grief. It fills me with peace that she is able to rest, if even for a moment. I have been a student for many years, Andromeda taught me I can be a teacher as well.
She has Risen. It seems like a lifetime ago since I stared at that empty room. I still see it from time to time when I close my eyes. Now they stand before me once more. My friend, my mentor. Do we pick up where we left off? What has changed? What remains the same. I am both thrilled and terrified.
Byani. Wow.? Period.

Personal Bond:

“Is Abraxas a man that turns into a wolf or a wolf that turns into a man? Is he man or beast? His experience with his new pack has made him realize that he is both man and beast. He will continue to learn how to talk and fight like a human. He will continue to howl at the moon and chase rabbits. He will revel in the power of his hybrid form.”

The weapons of man are versatile and ingenious. My hammer can break the jaws of my foes and my shield moves on it’s own to intercept any arrow or bolt heading my way. My pelt can soften the blows of most enemies, but dragonscale takes the bite out of even the axes of frost giants. But I am also a wolf. I cannot be the lone wall against our numerous aggressors. I am a pack hunter, I will stand alongside my pack in victory and defeat.

Retired Bonds:

I came into this world possessing destructive powers. One bite could transform a pacifist into a bloodthirsty creature. The strength I draw from the natural world can create a mist or unleash a maelstrom. Pippa’s enchanting and destructive powers are growing. She did not have the mentors I now see I was fortunate to have, she cannot hear the encouraging whispers of the frost, the wisdom of the mountains. I hope I can provide her the confidence and courage to dance in the tempest and embrace her own claws and fangs.
The moon is a mixed blessing to my people. It provides light for the hunt, it grants us power in all our forms. It also empowers the bitter sting of silver and drives those we bite into madness. This Herald seems different from the Irresseni I have encountered. Will they prove a mixed blessing?
~~Is Andromeda a witch in sheep’s clothing or yet another victim of Irrisen’s wickedness. Best keep her close and find out. One way or another my curiosity or hunger will be sated.~~
~~Fang, fur, and the elements have served me on my travels. I may have to adapt to ensure Pippa and I can weather any menace.~~
~~Pippa can harness powerful arcane forces. My hope is she balances its protective and destructive potential.~~
~~Some darkness or sorrow wounded Odessa early in life; I will make sure she knows she is safe in the pack.~~
~~Since Menet joins me in the den (i.e., embraces my natural spirit), I will endevour to join her in the temple (i.e., embrace her spiritual nature).~~
Odessa saved my life at the lighthouse; I will preserve her life. – Resolved
Odessa’s eyes can find both beauty and the perfect spot to aim for; she may become a trusted ally – Resolved
~~Odessa can talk to anyone; I have much to learn from her.~~
Pippa can talk to anyone; I have much to learn from her. – Resolved
Pippa knows that you don’t need a title or badge to dispense frontier justice; she may become a trusted ally. – Resolved
Pippa could have met a watery end; I will help her survive the dangers of wilds. – Resolved

Pippa Locksley – Level 9

Pippa Locksley

Pippa Locksley was born the youngest daughter of two innkeepers in Northern Taldor. She’s 35 years old and the “mom” friend. She isn’t overly fond of camping, but loves to travel. She’s a bit vain, very prideful and curious to a fault. She’s more of a con artist than a traditional thief – she swindles the hell out of most nobles and rich folks she encounters. If there’s something she really wants though, she’ll find a way to get it!

More importantly, Pippa’s a bit of a do-gooder and often involves herself in trouble in the towns she and her companions visit out of a sense of frontier justice and a distrust that nobles will actually protect the people under their rule.

Pippa Locksley – Level 9 Arcane Trickster

Alignment Statement:

Most laws exist to protect and enforce the status of those in power, and breaking them in the service of regular people or mine and my companions comfort (preferably both) is the right thing to do.

Values:

Pippa protects her own above all others. From her informants to her landlady in her townhouse in the capital city to her butler to the guy who fences her “repatriated” artifacts she takes an interest in their lives and troubles.
Pippa is prideful. She knows she’s worth about 10 of any mark or enemy she comes across.
She believes in eye for an eye justice, and if someone has been wronged in her view she will extract exact punishment
Sorcerers and wizards are Trouble, and should be given a wide berth. However, magic is wondrous and fascinating and strange.
If she can’t do something smart, Pippa will do something right

Bonds:

Menet has returned – and Andromeda has taken her place in the gem. I am overJOYED to see her again, to know that she lives and that Odessa likewise is unharmed, and continuing a journey of her own. So much has happened to Abraxas and me in the past few weeks, and in that time Menet has spent a year in this other place fighting a war, an experience that had to have left its own marks upon her – which I should be sensitive to. There is some awkwardness there that it will take time to navigate as we get to know each other again and recover our old camaraderie if we can.
I must remember that in this environment and when dealing with magic, Abraxas knows far more than I, and this both comforts and frightens me – should I reveal the expansion of my inner room?
The…creature…, ah, Argentea – has been helpful delivering spells on my behalf, helping me scout ahead where my eyes do not see, and taking blows for us that would have otherwise been fatal. She…(they?)…seem only to want my favor and a kind word in return. I should speak with her more, and discover what she likes.
I have struck a bargain with a witch, and I’m terrified of Abraxas finding out.
I must remember that in this environment and when dealing with magic, Abraxas knows far more than I, and I must let him lead and teach me.
Abraxas has been so kind to me, allowing me to ride him when I can’t keep up and bolstering me in times of fear. I must think of something I can do to show him how much I appreciate his friendship – perhaps a giant pile of exotic meats?
The source of Andromeda’s powers has finally been revealed, and we are going to do what we can to sever her relationship with this eldritch nightmare. Perhaps even more difficult will be helping this poor kid recover from the emotional trauma and isolation growing up like this has caused.
The source of Andromeda’s powers has finally been revealed, and we are going to do what we can to sever her relationship with this eldritch nightmare. Perhaps even more difficult will be helping this poor kid recover from the emotional trauma and isolation growing up like this has caused.
Andromeda is now inside the gem on Menet’s shoulder – I hope that this means she’s able to find some peace, to heal somewhat from the influence her patron has had on her life, and her first real experience with the grief of losing a friend. Buwan was really the one who would have been able to help her best, but in his absence, I must discover what I can do when she feels ready to return to us.
Trust is a choice you make, as I learned with Buwan in the short two weeks we knew him. He is gone, and I intend to carry the lessons I learned from him forward with this new companion on our quest, Bayani, and welcome him to our party as warmly.
I was just getting to know Jaromir/Buwan, after being so suspicious for so long, and then he died protecting us. I don’t know what to do with this guilt – as I told Andromeda, this will likely never go away as I mourn his death and my conduct towards him. I remember his stories about his grandmother, and vow to thwart her in every way possible, should we meet, and kill her if I can – in Buwan’s name.
Bayani is a quite disarming fellow, lots of muscles, charmingly guileless, a little witless too. But can he pack the punch we need as we face increasingly powerful foes? I should be prepared to ward him if necessary or redirect him from bad tactical ideas.

Personal Bond

I accepted a bargain with Maryusa to restore my powers and grant me a new gift. This led to me being able to save the lives of my companions when we were at our weakest and accomplish the vendetta I took on behalf of the people of Waldsby. I know there will be consequences but I can’t bring myself to regret it. Should I continue to explore the room to accomplish my other vendettas?

Retired Bonds

Buwan is clearly exactly the style of friend that I used to covet – monied, well-read, with excellent manners, and clearly well connected. I look forward to opportunities to enjoy the finer things (where they can be found) with him.
Andromeda is powerful in combat but HELPLESS in most other situations and I’m not sure I trust her judgment. HOW did she get wrapped up in this – I must know and she is frustratingly vague about it.
Abraxas and I may be the only two left of our original party, but we cannot dwell on such things if we are to make it out of this place alive. In addition, he has taken on much of the frontline fighting, channeling Menet’s memory and her spirit in the doing. I continue to find new depths of respect for his courage, and will throw myself into making it count with equal ferocity.
This hut is not fit for living in as nonevil ancient hags. Some improvements must be made.
Odessa and Menet – it’s hard to believe we only knew each other a short time, but bonds formed in blood and duty do not fade easily. If I survive this, I will not rest until I’ve discovered what happened to you and try to bring you home.
Is Buwan a mark or a partner? Friend or foe? Can he be trusted with our mission and with the lives of my companions? I’m going to watch him carefully until he does something to prove he can be trusted, geas, or no.
Buwan’s connections are based in Irrisen, and he mentioned he has “worked with” Halflings in the past, a situation that would be very odd indeed in Irrisen from what I know of my mother’s time here and the reactions I’ve gotten from the locals. I need to find out more about where he comes from, and why he was in Whitethrone.
Andromeda is someone else whose powers just appeared, who also is spoken to by mysterious other beings. Perhaps we can offer each other support in this area.
This hut is not fit for living in as non evil ancient hags. Some improvements must be made.
I have acquired a cat with my face. I am attempting to be in deep denial about this, but at the same time I know I should utilize her and learn how she can further our quest.
~~Of the original four of us who set out on the quest, Abraxas and I are the only ones who remain. We’re both feeling their loss keenly I know, and I’m afraid to let him out of my sight.~~
Odessa proved herself a trustworthy ally and a good friend to me when she helped me out of a rough spot a few weeks ago. I want to prove myself and equally trustworthy friend to her as we continue to travel together.
~~I’m really, really, REALLY curious about Odessa’s “gun”. I want her to let me fire it. Just once.~~
~~Abraxas is a fascinating combination of ferocity and guilelessness that I find precious and worth protecting. I want to teach him about my world, but not let it touch him too much.~~
~~I want to learn as much about him and his homeland as possible. I have always been fascinated by the wild north, and have never met a druid – I must know everything!~~ – Resolved
Abraxas has told me much about his homeland in our weeks of travel together and now we are heading there. Something that fills me with both wonder and terror. I must remember that in this environment Abraxas knows more than I do and I have to let him lead and teach me now.
Menet is like a character out of one of my mother’s stories! Strong, noble, open and brave – having her come with us makes me feel more able to come out of this adventure alive. She gives away money like it doesn’t matter and will bankrupt us quickly if I don’t keep an eye on it.
Menet charged ahead of the party toward the sound of screams, which is a noble reaction, but a highly impractical one. I fear that one day she will either walk into a trap with no one able to reach her in time, or that she will give away our position at the wrong moment.
Odessa has been struggling all this time with her addiction, and I was too blinded with my own ambitions to see the truth. I must try to be a better friend to her, and help her lance this wound at the core of her heart.
My faith and own experience tells me that solace and blissful distraction can often be found in a night of passion with a beautiful lover – a sentiment I know Odessa shares. I should wingwoman her if we get an opportunity at a tavern where we aren’t being attacked by the proprietors.
I hope that while spending time in Abraxas’s presence and observing and speaking with him I can learn to accept and better control these changes to my nature, and the possibility of wilder heritage than I had thought.
~~Menet gives away money like it doesn’t matter and will bankrupt us quickly if I don’t keep an eye on it.~~
Menet is brave and true and good, and does nothing without cause or without reason. Of all of us, she is perhaps the most clear minded about our mission – I would do well to heed her instincts in the future and not let my past associations with priests and paladins cloud my judgement of her character.
Menet recently confided in me that she is unused to this sort of fear in the face of such overwhelming danger and the odds that not all of us will make it to see this quest finished. I want to find a way to cheer her up, and remind her that she is more than equal to this task.

Andromeda – Level 8

fantasticworldspod — Sat, 10 Oct 2020 16:00:00 +0000

Andromeda

Who is Andromeda? That’s very hard to say. She knows next to nothing about her own origins and even less about the world. Having grown up isolated in the Hoarwood Forest with a nearly mute caretaker unrelated to her by blood, Andromeda is as naive as she is mysterious. The two things she knows about herself – her age and her name – were supplied to her by the disembodied voices that follow her wherever she goes.

Andromeda – Level 6
Andromeda – Level 7
Andromeda – Level 8

Alignment Statement:

All living creatures must survive, and so must I. Sometimes, unsightly things must be done in the name of living on…

Values:

Survival
To live is a precious gift, and one that must be cherished. If someone threatens her life, she will not hesitate to take theirs.

Curiosity
Asking questions and learning about the world is one of life’s greatest pleasures and one she has not had much chance to express. She wants to find out everything she can about everything around her.

Bonds:

Group Bond –
I need help. I kept convincing myself all this time that nothing was wrong, nothing was there, that I could handle everything alone, but the truth has come to grab me by the throat. I can’t face my demons alone. And though some things are too great, too overwhelming, too other to be truly known, I know that if anyone can help me find answers and put a stop to the spread of darkness inside of me, it’s the people I’m traveling with.
I feel a strong kinship with Abraxas, and it seems he might feel the same with me. I hope I’m correct in assuming he’s taken me under his wing, and that we can continue to foster a strong bond of trust and friendship. I also hope this means he’ll be able to teach me some of his tricks, as we seem to be of a similar bent when it comes to magic.
Abraxas is a brilliant creature of legend, and I want to learn his secrets.
Abraxas has finally become more friendly with me – I didn’t even realize the distance between us until it shortened. I fully intend to prove to him that I’m not a witch and that I can be trusted as a strong and worthy ally.
I admire Pippa’s strength and skill, but I’m starting to realize that even the most capable individuals need protection. I will not let her get hurt, no matter what.
Pippa’s life is like something out of a fairytale. I will learn to become more like her so that I can experience the things she has.
Pippa has been in near mortal danger several times now, and it scares me. I want to do everything in my power to protect her.
Buwan may very well have changed my life – changed me. Since the moment we met, there has been a strange connection between us, and though at first, I wasn’t sure that it was positive, I see now that he has nothing but good intentions. I want to know him better, and I want to find a way to repay the kindness and aid he has extended towards me.
Buwan and I have grown closer in just a few days I’ve known him, but I worry that Abraxas and Pippa don’t trust him. I’m also concerned about what that must mean. Should I mistrust him as well? Or should I follow my intuition? I want to continue to strengthen our relationship and find the answer for myself.
Kuneho and I have some past connection, I know it. Putting aside Buwan, I can feel something there, and I think they can too. Whatever it is, it may not be good, considering my history. But I need to find out, one way or the other. I must know what happened between us.

Personal Bond:

I have acknowledged it, the thing whose soft touches can be felt in my every move. And in so doing, I fear I’ve exposed everyone around me to grave danger. Everything I’ve done to hold this power at bay – my attempts to deflect and ignore and live on while running away – has been for naught. It’s back in my life. And I realize now, that it was never truly gone, just because I refused to look it in the face. But now that I’ve flung wide the door, and chosen to grapple with it head-on, I realize that what I fear is not being swallowed whole, but being consumed from within.

I’ve discovered the source of one of the voices that have guided me throughout my life – my grandmother. I’m saddened that I was unable to meet her when she was alive, but I’m so excited to have her traveling with me, even if it’s just her skull. I hope to find out more about myself by speaking with her further.

Retired Bonds:

~~Pippa and Abraxas are skilled and knowledgeable. I should heed their advice, and learn how to approach battles from their perspective.~~
~~Redacted~~

Buwan – Level 8

fantasticworldspod — Sat, 26 Sep 2020 16:00:00 +0000

Buwan
For, after all, you do grow up, you do outgrow your ideals, which turn to dust and ashes, which are shattered into fragments; and if you have no other life, you just have to build one up out of these fragments. – Fyodor Dostoyevsky
Happiness does not exist, nor should it, and if there is any meaning or purpose in life, they are not in our peddling little happiness, but in something reasonable and grand. Do good! – Anton Chekhov
Being Lawful Neutral does not mean you seek goodness in the world to bring happiness nor does it mean you seek vengeance fueled by the whims of emotions. You are fair, informed, and render judgment from the evidence presented. Buwon has seen what Evil has given him and has seen the potential that Good has to offer. He believes that everything has its place in the grand scheme of destiny like a celestial body tracked into a gravitational path. This has been further reinforced with his connection to Kuneho and the way they view the souls of the living. He seeks to right imbalances as he figures out his own moral compass, struggling with the person he was raised to be and the person he is called to become.

Happiness does not exist, nor should it, and if there is any meaning or purpose in life, they are not in our peddling little happiness, but in something reasonable and grand. Do good! – Anton Chekhov
Being Lawful Neutral does not mean you seek goodness in the world to bring happiness nor does it mean you seek vengeance fueled by the whims of emotions. You are fair, informed, and render judgment from the evidence presented. Buwon has seen what Evil has given him and has seen the potential that Good has to offer. He believes that everything has its place in the grand scheme of destiny like a celestial body tracked into a gravitational path. This has been further reinforced with his connection to Kuneho and the way they view the souls of the living. He seeks to right imbalances as he figures out his own moral compass, struggling with the person he was raised to be and the person he is called to become.

Values:
Inquiry: an act of asking for information
The cliche that “knowledge is power” holds true for Buwon, but he is not complacent enough to let knowledge simply fall into his lap. Buwon will actively seek out knowledge and information from a variety of sources: humanoids, literature, mythology, visions, astrology, data. If it has been written, interpreted, or spoken by a person or being, Buwon will be curious. By virtue of him being essentially raised in a library, Buwon places facts and knowledge on a pedestal, prizes to possess. This is especially true if he believes pertinent information will lead to a verdict, and this singular tunnel-vision causes him at times to be seen as blunt or straightforward.
Compathy: shared feeling (as of joy or sorrow)
There is a joy in sharing that Buwon was not always privy to in his youth. As an adult, he cherishes this, further compounded by the inexplicable link he shares with Kuneho. He has become used to slipping into their thoughts and vice versa, feeling what the other senses: pain, pleasure, perspective. He may at times seem too frank, but there is an earnestness in his empathy. To feel the light of the moon is to cut through the fog of this world; to share in another’s joy or to express one’s own sorrow is to find clarity in camaraderie and to create a tempered bond forged by connection.
Satori: (Zen Buddhism) A sudden inexpressible feeling of inner understanding or enlightenment
When all seemed lost, Buwon found what he believes was his place in the world. Escaping his earlier life, he stepped into the void and was transformed, taking upon the self-denoted mantel Herald of the Moon. Buwon wishes to extend this understanding to all facets of his life, especially now that his world view has been inverted. By upholding what he believes is right from wrong, he seeks to understand his relationship to those around himself in order to once more find that feeling of inner enlightenment. From knowledge comes understanding. From understanding comes compassion. From compassion comes enlightenment.

Bonds:
Pippa: Feels Like Home
Pippa reminds Buwan of his childhood. She conjures forth pleasant memories but at times has also summoned forth creeping sensations of shame and suspicion long thought shed. However, she and I have come to an impasse recently, and for that I am glad. It is hard to look at your reflection and not see the person you once were, but even harder when another throws it in your face. I am glad that Pippa made me realize that perhaps running from the past only leads to darker times. I look forward to showing her who Jaromir was and will be.
Abraxas: Heavy Lies the Crown
Abraxas may be a kindred spirit, but that does not mean we act the same or come to the same conclusions. We seem to be truly of different worlds though under the same moon. I have watched him wield power and authority but always with a gleam of hesitation in his eyes. He seems unsure of the role that is repeatedly thrust upon him, one that he readily takes upon himself whether he is aware of this or not. He will need guidance when it comes to less savory matters and will need my knowledge and experience more so than ever.
Andromeda: In Spirit & In Soul
After spiriting myself into the inner depth’s of Andromeda’s soul, I feel I am truly connected to her now and forever. My spirit is her shadow, and hers mine. But what consequences will that have on us both? I fear that what she suffers from may be larger than what we as a group can surmise or handle realistically. I will need to find out more information so I can better prepare myself, our group, and especially Little One as we move in tandem with the great beast that is a shade on her consciousness.

Personal Bond:
Himself: Broken & Amnesiac
I pride myself on knowing things, yet I can’t remember four whole days. I find myself weakened physically (-1 Str modifier), and Kuneho has repeatedly fallen in battle. I need to fix myself and discover what happened to me during that missing span of time in Baba Yaga’s hut. I’ve focused so much on others. I need to reorient my gaze inwards and discover the truth.
Other Bonds:
Argentea: Making Amends
As of late, I’ve been lashing out at Argentea. I should buy her some fish next time we are in a settlement. Or maybe I should ask Pippa what her favorite food is and feed that to Argentea?
Andromeda’s Grandmother: Font of Knowledge
I have not taken advantage of the opportunity that travels with us. I must interview Andromeda’s Grandmother and record them in a journal to be published when I have time.

Bonds:
Pippa: Feels Like Home
Pippa reminds Buwan of his childhood and that is something that he hasn’t realized he’s missed. He’s looking forward to spending time with the the other adult in the room in order to cultivate this feeling further
Abraxas: Lunar Brother
Abraxas seems to be a kindred spirit, and other child of the moon. However, they each manifest this connection in different ways — Abraxas through transforming his body, Buwan by separating a piece of himself. He wants to learn more about these differences in order to learn how to replicate it in his own connection
Andromeda: Little One
Andromeda invokes pity and a need to be shielded from the ways of the world, but Buwan is also highly suspicious if not afraid of what lies further beyond the seeming mask of innocence. Furthermore, Kuneho is not one to fear death yet fears Andromeda. Why?

Personal Bond:
Himself: Broken & Amnesiac
Buwan prides himself on knowing things, yet he can’t remember four whole days.

Andromeda – Level 7

fantasticworldspod — Thu, 07 May 2020 19:54:18 +0000

Andromeda
Who is Andromeda? That’s very hard to say. She knows next to nothing about her own origins and even less about the world. Having grown up isolated in the Hoarwood Forest with a nearly mute caretaker unrelated to her by blood, Andromeda is as naive as she is mysterious. The two things she knows about herself – her age and her name – were supplied to her by the disembodied voices that follow her wherever she goes.

Alignment Statement:
All living creatures must survive, and so must I. Sometimes, unsightly things must be done in the name of living on…

Values:
Survival
To live is a precious gift, and one that must be cherished. If someone threatens her life, she will not hesitate to take theirs.
Curiosity
Asking questions and learning about the world is one of life’s greatest pleasures and one she has not had much chance to express. She wants to find out everything she can about everything around her.

Bonds:
Abraxas is a brilliant creature of legend, and I want to learn his secrets.
Abraxas has finally become more friendly with me – I didn’t even realize the distance between us until it shortened. I fully intend to prove to him that I’m not a witch and that I can be trusted as a strong and worthy ally.
Pippa’s life is like something out of a fairytale. I will learn to become more like her so that I can experience the things she has.
Pippa has been in near mortal danger several times now, and it scares me. I want to do everything in my power to protect her.
Pippa and Abraxas are skilled and knowledgeable. I should heed their advice, and learn how to approach battles from their perspective.
Buwan and I have grown closer in just a few days I’ve known him, but I worry that Abraxas and Pippa don’t trust him. I’m also concerned about what that must mean. Should I mistrust him as well? Or should I follow my intuition? I want to continue to strengthen our relationship and find the answer for myself.
I’ve discovered the source of one of the voices that have guided me throughout my life – my grandmother. I’m saddened that I was unable to meet her when she was alive, but I’m so excited to have her traveling with me, even if it’s just her skull. I hope to find out more about myself by speaking with her further.

Abraxas Hillrunner
Much of his childhood was spent in the Lands of the Linnorm Kings. Therefore, he was more than thrilled when he heard and answered the call to serve the natural world. Since then he has traveled far from his homeland and his beloved family.
Abraxas revels in travel and exploration. Because of his upbringing, he is most at home in the hills and mountainous terrain. He is also comfortable with the cold. He spends much of his time in the wilderness, and that is the way he likes it. He is easy going and inquisitive; useful traits for a traveler. His calling keeps him primarily in the wilds. He can be quite the fish out of water on the rare visit to “civilization.”

Alignment Statement:
“When nature calls, I reply. When nature speaks, I listen. And when nature angers, I destroy.” (d20pfsrd.com Publishing, Call of the Wild)

Values:
Duty
His sacred duty is to serve nature. He has been called by the natural forces of Golarion. They are worthy of attention and respect. His oath to it must come first. When not in conflict with his sacred duty, he holds the wisdom of the law of the pack.
Adventure
His ancestors traveled the entire span of the Kodar mountain. Travel is in his blood. He delights in discovery and adventure.
Life
All things exist in balance. As the sun rises, so too it must set. He eats the flesh of his prey as he in turn will be devoured. Magic is the gift of his devotion; he will use it to harm or heal. The undead are an affront to nature and must be destroyed or laid to rest.

Bonds:
Guile, Innovation, and Intigue. Pippa can enhant without the virtue of magic. How wonderful would it be to gracefuly dance around the truth and fiction.
Fang, fur, and the elements have served me on my travels. I may have to adapt to ensure Pippa and I can weather any menance.
I came into this world possesing destructive powers. One bite could transform a pacifist into a bloodthirsty creature. The strenght I draw from the natural world can create a mist or unleash a malestrom. Pippa’s enchanting and destructive powers are growing. She did not have the mentors I now see I was fortunate to have, she cannot hear the encouraging whispers of the frost, the wisdom of the mountains. I hope I can provide her the confidance and courage to dance in the tempest and embrace her own claws and fangs.
Is Andromeda a witch in sheep’s clothing or yet another victim of Irrisen’s wickedness. Best keep her close and find out. One way or another my curiosity or hunger will be sated.
The moon is a mixed blessing to my people. It provides light for the hunt, it grants us power in all our forms. It also empowers the bitter sting of silver and drives those we bite into madness. This Hearald seems diffrent from the Irresseni I have encountered. Will they prove a mixed blessing?

Retired Bonds:
~~Pippa can harness powerful arcane forces. My hope is she balances its protective and destructive potential.~~
~~Some darkness or sorrow wounded Odessa early in life; I will make sure she knows she is safe in the pack.~~
~~Since Menet joins me in the den (i.e., embraces my natural spirit), I will endevour to join her in the temple (i.e., embrace her spiritual nature).~~
Odessa saved my life at the lighthouse; I will preserve her life. – Resolved
Odessa’s eyes can find both beauty and the perfect spot to aim for; she may become a trusted ally – Resolved
~~Odessa can talk to anyone; I have much to learn from her.~~
Pippa can talk to anyone; I have much to learn from her. – Resolved
Pippa knows that you don’t need a title or badge to dispense frontier justice; she may become a trusted ally. – Resolved
Pippa could have met a watery end; I will help her survive the dangers of wilds. – Resolved

fantasticworldspod — Thu, 07 May 2020 19:15:47 +0000

Art by: corpsecutie on instagram, erikathegoober on instagram, arabird_art on instagram

Pippa Locksley
Pippa Locksley was born the youngest daughter of two innkeepers in Northern Taldor. She’s 35 years old and the “mom” friend. She isn’t overly fond of camping, but loves to travel. She’s a bit vain, very prideful and curious to a fault. She’s more of a con artist than a traditional thief – she swindles the hell out of most nobles and rich folks she encounters. If there’s something she really wants though, she’ll find a way to get it!
More importantly, Pippa’s a bit of a do-gooder and often involves herself in trouble in the towns she and her companions visit out of a sense of frontier justice and a distrust that nobles will actually protect the people under their rule.

Alignment Statement:
Most laws exist to protect and enforce the status of those in power, and breaking them in the service of regular people or mine and my companions comfort (preferably both) is the right thing to do.

Values:
Pippa protects her own above all others. From her informants to her landlady in her townhouse in the capital city to her butler to the guy who fences her “repatriated” artifacts she takes an interest in their lives and troubles.
Pippa is prideful. She knows she’s worth about 10 of any mark or enemy she comes across.
She believes in eye for an eye justice, and if someone has been wronged in her view she will extract exact punishment
Sorcerers and wizards are Trouble, and should be given a wide berth. However, magic is wondrous and fascinating and strange.
If she can’t do something smart, Pippa will do something right

Bonds:
Odessa and Menet – it’s hard to believe we only knew each other a short time, but bonds formed in blood and duty do not fade easily. If I survive this, I will not rest until I’ve discovered what happened to you and try to bring you home.
This hut is not fit for living in as non evil ancient hags. Some improvements must be made.
I have acquired a cat with my face. I am attempting to be in deep denial about this, but at the same time I know I should utilize her and learn how she can further our quest.
I must remember that in this environment and when dealing with magic, Abraxas knows far more than I and this both comforts and frightens me – should I reveal the expansion of my inner room?
I have struck a bargain with a witch, and I’m terrified of Abraxas finding out.
I must remember that in this environment and when dealing with magic, Abraxas knows far more than I and I must let him lead and teach me.
Abraxas has been so kind to me, allowing me to ride him when I can’t keep up and bolstering me in times of fear. I must think of something I can do to show him how much I appreciate his friendship – perhaps a giant pile of exotic meats?
Andromeda is someone else who’s powers just appeared, who also is spoken to by mysterious other beings. Perhaps we can offer each other support in this area.
Andromeda is powerful in combat but HELPLESS in most other situations and I’m not sure I trust her judgement. HOW did she get wrapped up in this – I must know and she is frustratingly vague about it.
Buwon is clearly exactly the style of friend that I used to covet – monied, well-read, with excellent manners and clearly well connected. I look forward to opportunities to enjoy the finer things (where they can be found) with him.
That said, Buwon’s connections are based in Irrisen, and he mentioned he has “worked with” Halflings in the past, a situation that would be very odd indeed in Irrisen from what I know of my mother’s time here and the reactions I’ve gotten from the locals. I need to find out more about where he comes from, and why he was in Whitethrone.
Is Buwon a mark or a partner? Friend or foe? Can he be trusted with our mission and with the lives of my companions? I’m going to watch him carefully until he does something to prove he can be trusted, geas or no.
Personal Bond
I accepted a bargain with Maryusa to restore my powers and grant me a new gift. This led to me being able to save the lives of my companions when we were at our weakest and accomplish the vendetta I took on behalf of the people of Waldsby. I know there will be consequences but I can’t bring myself to regret it. Should I continue to explore the room to accomplish my other vendettas?
Retired Bonds
~~Of the original four of us who set out on the quest, Abraxas and I are the only ones who remain. We’re both feeling their loss keenly I know, and I’m afraid to let him out of my sight.~~
Odessa proved herself a trustworthy ally and a good friend to me when she helped me out of a rough spot a few weeks ago. I want to prove myself and equally trustworthy friend to her as we continue to travel together.
~~I’m really, really, REALLY curious about Odessa’s “gun”. I want her to let me fire it. Just once.~~
~~Abraxas is a fascinating combination of ferocity and guilelessness that I find precious and worth protecting. I want to teach him about my world, but not let it touch him too much.~~
~~I want to learn as much about him and his homeland as possible. I have always been fascinated by the wild north, and have never met a druid – I must know everything!~~ – Resolved
Abraxas has told me much about his homeland in our weeks of travel together and now we are heading there. Something that fills me with both wonder and terror. I must remember that in this environment Abraxas knows more than I do and I have to let him lead and teach me now.
Menet is like a character out of one of my mother’s stories! Strong, noble, open and brave – having her come with us makes me feel more able to come out of this adventure alive. She gives away money like it doesn’t matter and will bankrupt us quickly if I don’t keep an eye on it.
Menet charged ahead of the party toward the sound of screams, which is a noble reaction, but a highly impractical one. I fear that one day she will either walk into a trap with no one able to reach her in time, or that she will give away our position at the wrong moment.
Odessa has been struggling all this time with her addiction, and I was too blinded with my own ambitions to see the truth. I must try to be a better friend to her, and help her lance this wound at the core of her heart.
My faith and own experience tells me that solace and blissful distraction can often be found in a night of passion with a beautiful lover – a sentiment I know Odessa shares. I should wingwoman her if we get an opportunity at a tavern where we aren’t being attacked by the proprietors.
I hope that while spending time in Abraxas’s presence and observing and speaking with him I can learn to accept and better control these changes to my nature, and the possibility of wilder heritage than I had thought.
~~Menet gives away money like it doesn’t matter and will bankrupt us quickly if I don’t keep an eye on it.~~
Menet is brave and true and good, and does nothing without cause or without reason. Of all of us, she is perhaps the most clear minded about our mission – I would do well to heed her instincts in the future and not let my past associations with priests and paladins cloud my judgement of her character.
Menet recently confided in me that she is unused to this sort of fear in the face of such overwhelming danger and the odds that not all of us will make it to see this quest finished. I want to find a way to cheer her up, and remind her that she is more than equal to this task.

Odessa Grenadé – Level 5

fantasticworldspod — Wed, 22 May 2019 01:11:48 +0000

Artists: Corpsecutie on Instagram, maidfetish on Instagram, animositi on Instagram

Odessa Grenadé

Odessa was raised mostly by her doting father in Absalom where her father was a world renowned blacksmith. Growing up she lived a pretty charmed life. It wasn’t until she hit her teens that things went sideways. A sudden tragedy caused Odessa to flee her home and leave her old life behind. From there she made her way to a brothel where she worked for quite some time before leaving to find her own way in the world.
Odessa is first and foremost very blunt, followed closely by her fearless nature. Those combined, she often gets herself into trouble. Due to a gun misfire as a small child Odessa is Deaf in her left ear, as a result she was given a magical teddy bear named Jim as a service animal. With her cotton candy pink hair and her adorable companion it may be hard to take her seriously, but you’d be foolish not to.

Alignment Statement:
Charm them before you harm them.
When in doubt knock them out.
Ally blood spilled will get them killed.

Values:
Steel
Emotions and fragility should be left to those with nothing better to do. Such things do nothing but cause trouble and put people at risk.
Charm
A skill that doubles as both a defense and a weapon.
Mercy
Should be shown when circumstances call for it, but should be cast aside once the person in question has proved themselves unworthy of it.
Righteousness
This world is riddled with those who would do harm unto others. Those people should be dealt with quickly and efficiently.

Book 2 Bonds:
Pippa
The transformation that Pippa is going through is going to require support. I don’t pretend to understand what is happening as magic is something I know so little about, but I do know she will need a friend. So while Abraxas and Menet can offer advice and training I can offer her a hand to hold, and a safe escape should she need it.
I feel like there’s a side to Pippa I haven’t seen yet, but got a glimpse of her the other night in the tavern. The more I hear about the followers of Calistria the more I realize Pippa and I might have more in common than I thought. She puts on a proper front, but I’d love to see her let hair down for a minute and just have fun without formalities holding her back.
Menet
My heart skips a beat when I think of Menet. Her kind eyes and strong arms make me feel safe, but when she said she thinks she’s was falling in love with me it scared me to my core. We’ve known each other for such a short period of time. Is it even possible for something so big to happen so fast? I worry about what the others will think and what could come of this. But I’m willing to try if she is.
I’ve been so focused on Menet but I feel like I don’t know anything about her. If we are going to be… something together… I should probably know more about her than superficial observations. I will not let her strong arms distract me from actually getting to know her. It’s about time I stop being so shallow and actually learn something about her.
What a mess I’ve made with Menet. The world is falling down around us and I keep finding myself thinking about what could be with someone I barely know. Her words “I hope you’ll give us a chance” echo in my head when I look at her. But she is coming to terms with the gravity of the situation we have fallen into and has so much on her plate. The last thing I need to do is add anything more. I do not have the skills to help me navigate the intricacy of what has happened between us. But I still can’t help but wonder what would happen if I was honest with myself… and with her.
Abraxas
The platonic intamacy of sharing a bed with Abraxas has saved me from myself more times that I care to admit. He has become a silent rock for me to brace myself against that keep my nightmares at bay. I don’t know if I’ll ever be able to repay the gift of peace he’s given me, but I shall try.
When Pikel showed up I was taken aback but enthralled by the sexual tension. From what Pikel alluded to Abraxas is an animal in more ways than one. So if I see an opportunity, I will be sure to throw Abraxas to the bears so to speak *wink*.
Myself
I am truly the champion of making things more complicated than necessary. From spitefully sleeping with a stranger, to yelling at Menet and then telling her how I feel, to waking up the next day to hid under the bed, and then lying to Pippa and Abraxas through omission… things have taken a turn. But Cayden trusts me and has put me on probation. In his honor I will cope with this stress in healthier ways and drink to celebrate when the stress is over. And you know… when we save the world.
After years of living inside an impenetrable shell that kept everyone at arms length I have begun to see cracks along the surface that let small truths slip through. Cayden has brought me to people who might give me the courage to live out in the light. Perhaps I can trust them with the truths that wreck my mind when I close my eyes. Maybe I don’t have to carry all this alone.
Book 1 Bonds:
Pipa seems to get into a lot of trouble, I need to watch her back at all times
Pipa’s heart is kind and true, I admire her drive to help others
Abraxas seems to struggle in almost any social situation, I will fix that somehow
Abraxas despite his struggle he is an ally that I can rely on
Pippa and I have grown close over the last several months, I believe I can trust her and I hope she can trust me. We both seem to of suffered substantial loss and heartbreak at too young an age. Knowing this, I want her to be able to confide her troubles in me and mine to her. Together perhaps we can begin to heal.
I am so completely out of my element. From the snow on the ground to a culture I do not understand, this is clearly not my expertise. As much as I hate to admit it, Pippa’s suggestion to follow Abraxas makes sense. I will do my best to swallow my pride and be the best I can be.
I’ve made baby steps towards opening up and trusting my companions just as Cayden has commanded me, but I can’t seem to get over the larger hurdles. If I am ever going to have this divine curse lifted I will either need to embrace this forced honesty or convert to a new God. Wherein the latter isn’t really an option. Oh Cayden, why have you betrayed me so?

Menet Serbana – Level 5

Artists featured: yeez_art on instagram, animositi on instagram

Menet Serbanea
Menet is a half-Garundi, half-Varisian woman who has spent half of her life in Osirion, and half traveling with a Varisian caravan. As a working class child in Osirion, she learned of Khepri, who she worshipped devotedly from the moment she was given a choice. As a Paladin of Khepri, she fights for the working folk, those oppressed by the nobility and without the means to fight for themselves.

Menet has felt an undeniable wanderlust in her heart from a very young age. She adapts quickly to new terrains, and though she grew up under the harsh sun of Osirion, she’s just as comfortable in the colder climes of Irrisen.

Menet Serbanea – Level 5

Alignment Statement:
“At the end of the day, I fight for those who cannot fight for themselves. If that makes me an outlaw, so be it. I’ve been called worse.” – Angela Parkhurst, Forget Me Not

“God made this money – the fresh air, too – for his children’s use. He never made the difference between poor and rich.” – Rebecca Harding Davis, Life in the Iron Mills and Other Stories

Values:
Freedom
None who may be redeemed should be imprisoned, and none should be restricted by circumstance. Menet believes that only the most heinous criminals deserve to be in a cage, and even they may be redeemed under different circumstances.
Compassion
Menet believes that all who live deserve that life, and deserve the basic necessities of life. Every person should be provided shelter, food, and healing, and she will do her best to help those who go without.
Adventure
Born of the migratory Garundi and caravaneering Varisians, Menet’s proclivity for travel and adventure is in her blood. She feels most at home on the road, and especially in locales that differ greatly from Osirion.
Humility
Menet has never been a woman of prodigious means. She has cobbled together a suit of armor, acquired weaponry second-hand, and basically scraped by since birth. She knows she looks nothing like the shining Paladins of Iomedae or Desna, but she also knows that people look to her for hope. She will never show self-consciousness about her patchwork armor, nor her well-worn weapons, whether she feels distressed by them or not. She exudes confidence regardless of her circumstances, and hopes to inspire confidence in those she serves – the poor and downtrodden.

Bonds:
Abraxas seems to be grappling with his wolfy curse more than usual. I hope to help him cope with his feelings, even though there is little I can do to properly help him.
Abraxas is conflicted about working with Baba Yaga, and I can understand why. I also have some trepidation considering that she is rumored to be evil. However, I believe that we can trust in the guidance of fate, and I hope to convince
Abraxas that no matter what happens, we will find the power to stop Baba Yaga from controlling us further when it’s all over.
Pippa and I have similar aims, I want to help her to reach her goals.
Pippa has a hunger for wealth, I want to dissuade her from pursuing coin as it is a corrupting force. I believe we should both be aiming to dismantle the system that requires it and creates such disparity between people based on earthly goods.
Odessa is sensitive under that hard outer shell, and I want to protect her from the things in the world that will cause her psychological or physical pain.
Hearing the words “my world kind of ended at 16” shocked and alarmed me. I couldn’t have guessed at what Odessa had been through. I knew it was nothing good from her emotional state, but to have everything so dramatically turned on its head… she must have endured a lot of pain. It has clearly contributed to her lack of self-worth. It will surely take time, but I want to help Odessa see her own value, and the value of living again.
I’ve admitted it – I told Odessa I was falling in love with her. Who knows what we are now… it feels so ill-defined, but I don’t want to push her too far. I want to let things happen naturally, but I’m so antsy to move forward at the same time. I truly didn’t think I could feel like this until now, and I have a lot of regrets concerning my past love life, but I want things to go right this time. I need to make sure I’m conscious of her feelings and work hard not to make mistakes that cause her to question this relationship.
I’ve come to the realization that my worth to my companions is more substantial than I believed, and that this quest is indeed a quest I am meant to be part of. And I understand now that I was seeking martyrdom and believed I was going to die, which was clearly the reason my fear of death grew so strong. Though my fear has not gone completely, I am much more self-assured and I believe I will conquer it entirely with time. Now more than ever, I must work hard to be strong and keep my emotions in check. Khepri, please guide me, and help me keep this fear at bay.

What is Jim?!

Kay O'Connor — Tue, 09 Apr 2019 15:30:44 +0000

I don’t know if I’ve said this enough, but there are two things that are very important to me and my life: pink things and cute things. My poor partner puts up with so much and has essentially given up an accepted that our whole house is slowly turning pink. Y’all should see my set up for the podcast. It’s all pink and Sailor Moon, actually see the pictures on the article that I’ve attached just so you can understand the extent of shit I’m talking about here. Cute and pink shit is my life.
So of course if I’m going to have a badass gunslinger, I had to find a way to sneak that in there. Clearly. Pink was a bit easier as I convinced Dustin to let me have her hair be pink (which he was very agreeable to by the way).

That left the matter of figuring out something cute. I honestly really struggled coming up with something original. But when Dustin and I decided to make her partially deaf, it made sense that she would have something to help her in her adventures. Dustin mentioned that Angel had figured out how to animate a teddy bear in a previous game they had played, and I was instantly sold. Angel walked me through building him, and the rest is history.

Creating his personality and mannerisms was a little more troublesome. I wanted him to be cute but also allowed times for him to be a bit unhinged. I have not kept it a secret that I am obsessed with Bee and Puppycat, so Puppycat was the incredible inspiration on how to do that. If you haven’t watched that show yet, you are doing something wrong with your life and should go do that immediately by the way. It’s brilliant and beautiful.
Jim basically became Odessa’s eternal sidekick. Aside from being her service creature, he has been her only constant companion through her trauma and continuous need to run away from her problems. Through thick and thin he’s been right there on her shoulder.
We are slowly learning more about him and his history (because really what even is Jim?) the more we play and the more I’m willing to reveal. The parts of Jim I created are all so intricate, and I don’t even know what Dustin has up his sleeve. He’s clearly an anomaly, and I am so pleased with how he is turning out.
So far we’ve learned that Odessa’s dad made him for her after a misfire from her father’s gun left her deaf in one ear. But then with the scene with the black knight, I’m sure there are even more questions about what Jim actually is or where he came from. Plus now that we’ve learned that Pippa can speak with him there are certainly some questions about why she got such a different side of him than Odessa does. Much to my despair we also got to see what happens if Jim and Odessa are separated. Which as you all probably remember was a lot of rage and yelling at everyone to speak louder. I assure you we have answers to the question “what is Jim?!”, and that our angry yet cute little friend will reveal his secrets as the story progresses. Unfortunately for you all I am not willing to give up his secrets just yet.
It’s been great having two characters to play off of, and fun to see the other cast members contribute to his actions in game. I think he’s added an element to the story that I wasn’t expecting, but I am so glad that this has been the result.

Abraxas Hillrunner – Level 4

fantasticworldspod — Tue, 12 Mar 2019 18:50:52 +0000

Abraxas Hillrunner
Much of his childhood was spent in the Lands of the Linnorm Kings. Therefore, he was more than thrilled when he heard and answered the call to serve the natural world. Since then he has traveled far from his homeland and his beloved family.
Abraxas revels in travel and exploration. Because of his upbringing, he is most at home in the hills and mountainous terrain. He is also comfortable with the cold. He spends much of his time in the wilderness, and that is the way he likes it. He is easy going and inquisitive; useful traits for a traveler. His calling keeps him primarily in the wilds. He can be quite the fish out of water on the rare visit to “civilization.”

Alignment Statement:
“When nature calls, I reply. When nature speaks, I listen. And when nature angers, I destroy.” (d20pfsrd.com Publishing, Call of the Wild)

Values:
Duty
His sacred duty is to serve nature. He has been called by the natural forces of Golarion. They are worthy of attention and respect. His oath to it must come first. When not in conflict with his sacred duty, he holds the wisdom of the law of the pack.
Adventure
His ancestors traveled the entire span of the Kodar mountain. Travel is in his blood. He delights in discovery and adventure.
Life
All things exist in balance. As the sun rises, so too it must set. He eats the flesh of his prey as he in turn will be devoured. Magic is the gift of his devotion; he will use it to harm or heal. The undead are an affront to nature and must be destroyed or laid to rest.

Book 2 Bonds:
Pippa can harness powerful arcane forces. My hope is she balances its protective and destructive potential.
Some darkness or sorrow wounded Odessa early in life; I will make sure she knows she is safe in the pack.
Since Menet joins me in the den (i.e., embraces my natural spirit), I will endevour to join her in the temple (i.e., embrace her spiritual nature).

Book 1 Bonds:
Odessa saved my life at the lighthouse; I will preserve her life. – Resolved
Odessa’s eyes can find both beauty and the perfect spot to aim for; she may become a trusted ally – Resolved
Odessa can talk to anyone; I have much to learn from her.
Pippa can talk to anyone; I have much to learn from her. – Resolved
Pippa knows that you don’t need a title or badge to dispense frontier justice; she may become a trusted ally. – Resolved
Pippa could have met a watery end; I will help her survive the dangers of wilds. – Resolved

Pippa Locksley
Pippa Locksley was born the youngest daughter of two innkeepers in Northern Taldor. She’s 35 years old and the “mom” friend. She isn’t overly fond of camping, but loves to travel. She’s a bit vain, very prideful and curious to a fault. She’s more of a con artist than a traditional thief – she swindles the hell out of most nobles and rich folks she encounters. If there’s something she really wants though, she’ll find a way to get it!
More importantly, Pippa’s a bit of a do-gooder and often involves herself in trouble in the towns she and her companions visit out of a sense of frontier justice and a distrust that nobles will actually protect the people under their rule.

Pippa Locksley – Level 4 Sorcerer

Alignment Statement:
Most laws exist to protect and enforce the status of those in power, and breaking them in the service of regular people or mine and my companions comfort (preferably both) is the right thing to do.

Values:
Pippa protects her own above all others. From her informants to her landlady in her townhouse in the capital city to her butler to the guy who fences her “repatriated” artifacts she takes an interest in their lives and troubles.
Pippa is prideful. She knows she’s worth about 10 of any mark or enemy she comes across.
She believes in eye for an eye justice, and if someone has been wronged in her view she will extract exact punishment
Sorcerers and wizards are Trouble, and should be given a wide berth. However, magic is wondrous and fascinating and strange.
If she can’t do something smart, Pippa will do something right

Bonds:
Odessa proved herself a trustworthy ally and a good friend to me when she helped me out of a rough spot a few weeks ago. I want to prove myself and equally trustworthy friend to her as we continue to travel together.
~~I’m really, really, REALLY curious about Odessa’s “gun”. I want her to let me fire it. Just once.~~
~~Abraxas is a fascinating combination of ferocity and guilelessness that I find precious and worth protecting. I want to teach him about my world, but not let it touch him too much.~~
~~I want to learn as much about him and his homeland as possible. I have always been fascinated by the wild north, and have never met a druid – I must know everything!~~ – Resolved
Abraxas has told me much about his homeland in our weeks of travel together and now we are heading there. Something that fills me with both wonder and terror. I must remember that in this environment Abraxas knows more than I do and I have to let him lead and teach me now.
Menet is like a character out of one of my mother’s stories! Strong, noble, open and brave – having her come with us makes me feel more able to come out of this adventure alive. She gives away money like it doesn’t matter and will bankrupt us quickly if I don’t keep an eye on it.
Menet charged ahead of the party toward the sound of screams, which is a noble reaction, but a highly impractical one. I fear that one day she will either walk into a trap with no one able to reach her in time, or that she will give away our position at the wrong moment.
Odessa has been struggling all this time with her addiction, and I was too blinded with my own ambitions to see the truth. I must try to be a better friend to her, and help her lance this wound at the core of her heart.
My faith and own experience tells me that solace and blissful distraction can often be found in a night of passion with a beautiful lover – a sentiment I know Odessa shares. I should wingwoman her if we get an opportunity at a tavern where we aren’t being attacked by the proprietors.
I must remember that in this environment and when dealing with magic, Abraxas knows far more than I and I must let him lead and teach me.
I hope that while spending time in Abraxas’s presence and observing and speaking with him I can learn to accept and better control these changes to my nature, and the possibility of wilder heritage than I had thought.
Abraxas has been so kind to me, allowing me to ride him when I can’t keep up and bolstering me in times of fear. I must think of something I can do to show him how much I appreciate his friendship – perhaps a giant pile of exotic meats?
Menet gives away money like it doesn’t matter and will bankrupt us quickly if I don’t keep an eye on it.
Menet is brave and true and good, and does nothing without cause or without reason. Of all of us, she is perhaps the most clear minded about our mission – I would do well to heed her instincts in the future and not let my past associations with priests and paladins cloud my judgement of her character.
Menet recently confided in me that she is unused to this sort of fear in the face of such overwhelming danger and the odds that not all of us will make it to see this quest finished. I want to find a way to cheer her up, and remind her that she is more than equal to this task.

Odessa Grenadé

Odessa was raised mostly by her doting father in Absalom where her father was a world renowned blacksmith. Growing up she lived a pretty charmed life. It wasn’t until she hit her teens that things went sideways. A sudden tragedy caused Odessa to flee her home and leave her old life behind. From there she made her way to a brothel where she worked for quite some time before leaving to find her own way in the world.
Odessa is first and foremost very blunt, followed closely by her fearless nature. Those combined, she often gets herself into trouble. Due to a gun misfire as a small child Odessa is Deaf in her left ear, as a result she was given a magical teddy bear named Jim as a service animal. With her cotton candy pink hair and her adorable companion it may be hard to take her seriously, but you’d be foolish not to.

Alignment Statement:
Charm them before you harm them.
When in doubt knock them out.
Ally blood spilled will get them killed.

Values:
Steel
Emotions and fragility should be left to those with nothing better to do. Such things do nothing but cause trouble and put people at risk.
Charm
A skill that doubles as both a defense and a weapon.
Mercy
Should be shown when circumstances call for it, but should be cast aside once the person in question has proved themselves unworthy of it.
Righteousness
This world is riddled with those who would do harm unto others. Those people should be dealt with quickly and efficiently.

Book 2 Bonds:
Pippa
The transformation that Pippa is going through is going to require support. I don’t pretend to understand what is happening as magic is something I know so little about, but I do know she will need a friend. So while Abraxas and Menet can offer advice and training I can offer her a hand to hold, and a safe escape should she need it.
Menet
What a mess I’ve made with Menet. The world is falling down around us and I keep finding myself thinking about what could be with someone I barely know. Her words “I hope you’ll give us a chance” echo in my head when I look at her. But she is coming to terms with the gravity of the situation we have fallen into and has so much on her plate. The last thing I need to do is add anything more. I do not have skills to help me navigate the intricacy of what has happened between us. But I still can’t help but wonder what would happen if I was honest with myself… and with her.
Abraxas
The platonic intamacy of sharing a bed with Abraxas has saved me from myself more times that I care to admit. He has become a silent rock for me to brace myself against that keep my nightmares at bay. I don’t know if I’ll ever be able to repay the gift of peace he’s given me, but I shall try.

I am so completely out of my element. From the snow on the ground to a culture I do not understand, this is clearly not my expertise. As much as I hate to admit it, Pippa’s suggestion to follow Abraxas makes sense. I will do my best to swallow my pride and be the best I can be.
I’ve made baby steps towards opening up and trusting my companions just as Cayden has commanded me, but I can’t seem to get over the larger hurdles. If I am ever going to have this divine curse lifted I will either need to embrace this forced honesty or convert to a new God. Wherein the latter isn’t really an option. Oh Cayden, why have you betrayed me so?

Odessa is sensitive under that hard outer shell, and I want to protect her from the things in the world that will cause her psychological or physical pain.
Hearing the words “my world kind of ended at 16” shocked and alarmed me. I couldn’t have guessed at what Odessa had been through. I knew it was nothing good from her emotional state, but to have everything so dramatically turned on its head… she must have endured a lot of pain. It has clearly contributed to her lack of self-worth. It will surely take time, but I want to help Odessa see her own value, and the value of living again.

Menet’s Tattoos

fantasticworldspod — Sun, 25 Nov 2018 19:15:58 +0000

clipartxtras.com

Fantastic friends, it’s time for us to learn about something I’ve neglected to spend any time describing: Menet’s tattoos. She is half Varisian as you (hopefully) know, and one key marker of Varisian folks is that they often have tattoos, and quite a few. Some are even born with the rare “birth tattoo” which was technically the first tattoo Menet ever received. She didn’t know about this phenomenon until she was 16 however, and so was always told by her family that she was simply marked by Khepri. She often chalked the eerily detailed scarab tattoo on her right arm up to chance – and considered it a weird birthmark. She still doesn’t believe it means much of anything, and thinks it’s just a marker of her Varisian heritage, more than anything. The intricacy of the scarab tattoo comes from its many whorls and designs contained within. It is not a lifelike representation of the beetle, but instead looks like an artistic rendition.
Now, on to the other tattoos! I believe I’ve mentioned in the campaign that she has two facial tattoos, but I’m not 100% sure of that. Either way, we’re going to talk about it now. Menet’s tattoo style is “whatever looks nice.” That doesn’t mean none of her tattoos have any significance, it just means that some are simply there for aesthetics. Hence, her first facial tattoo, which she got at the age of 16 to mark the start of her journey away from home. It is a half-inch wide blue line that extends from one ear to the other, going over the bridge of her nose. She got this tattoo in particular because she saw a Varisian harrower with several lines across her face, and thought it looked beautiful.
The second tattoo she got on her face (not long after the first) was more symbolic. She started to feel homesick upon leaving Osirion, and so she got a simple shen ring in the center of her forehead, about an inch above her eyebrows. It is the same shade of blue as the line mainly because she wanted to match, but also because the color blue represents health, youth, and beauty. This may seem strange considering Menet’s apparent lack of vanity, but she sees beauty as a part of life, and celebrates it as a part of herself because there is no reason to deny it.
The third tattoo she got was on her left arm, in the same location as her birth tattoo on the other arm. She wanted to balance the scarab, and further represent her culture and homeland. Continuing the theme she started with her shen circle (which represents all that the sun circles in Osirion), she decided to get a tattoo of a phoenix (benu), which also represents the sun. It matches the tone of her birth tattoo, however her birth tattoo has always maintained a slight lustre and sheen in its blackness that her other tattoo simply cannot. She considers all of these symbols of her dedication to Khepri as he is linked to the rising sun and to Ra.
The final tattoo she has is a rather large, detailed piece that she has been slowly building on. It is across her shoulders and extends to the middle of her back, and contains as many colors as possible, representing various things to her fellow Varisians. It includes orange, pink, green, blue, turquoise, violet, and red. It is a stylized wagon wheel (think Roma Chakra) surrounded by flowers and whorls to make it more aesthetically pleasing. She has had various flowers added over time, most notably, hyacinthe winding through the spokes.

And those are all of Menet’s tattoos! I thought about using some image references between the text, but at the same time, I think it’s fun to let you all imagine these tattoos as you like. So for those of you who prefer to imagine it yourself, I’ll leave it up to your imagination.

Here are some links for those of you who’d like to see what I was looking at for reference:

Rolling Abraxas

Angel Espinoza — Fri, 16 Nov 2018 17:46:46 +0000

I am playing a few online games at the moment. It is not uncommon for me to look up talent or ship builds. Y’all know what I am talking about, right? Yah you do, you delightful nerds. I don’t do that as often when building pen and paper characters. When it was time to roll up a toon for the Reign of Winter campaign, I didn’t scour the internet for THE best first level toon. I had a basic idea revolving around a winter druid. Lucky for me the arctic druid archetype existed. I will be honest with you, I immediately thought about rolling an Aasimar. They pack some sweet racial traits. What druid wouldn’t like a nice Wisdom and Charisma boost? He looked pretty good by the time I finished up. Then I got to thinking about a Mowgli character. Raised by wolves prior to finding the path of the druid. A few days passed, and I still liked the idea. The week progressed, and I kept on musing about a feral background. Story first, math second. Says it right on our website. So, I scrapped the Aasimar druid build and wrote a decent character background. I chose feats and skills based on wilderness survival instead of boosting my AC or damage. When the time comes to increase an ability score at level 4, I am leaving my Wisdom as is. I have never done that with any prior character; ability increase equals primary stat boost. I am excited to see how far Abraxas can go and see his story unfold. I am really excited to see how his interactions with his companions affects his growth. Maybe he will pick up a bit of gunsmithing or learn to how to pick a few pockets. Only time and the story will tell.

Odessa Grenadé – Level 3

Dustin Alexander — Thu, 18 Oct 2018 03:00:45 +0000

Odessa Grenadé

Odessa was raised mostly by her doting father in Absalom where her father was a world renowned blacksmith. Growing up she lived a pretty charmed life. It wasn’t until she hit her teens that things went sideways. A sudden tragedy caused Odessa to flee her home and leave her old life behind. From there she made her way to a brothel where she worked for quite some time before leaving to find her own way in the world.
Odessa is first and foremost very blunt, followed closely by her fearless nature. Those combined, she often gets herself into trouble. Due to a gun misfire as a small child Odessa is Deaf in her left ear, as a result she was given a magical teddy bear named Jim as a service animal. With her cotton candy pink hair and her adorable companion it may be hard to take her seriously, but you’d be foolish not to.

Odessa Grenade – Level 1
Odessa Grenade – Level 2
Odessa Grenade – Level 3

Alignment Statement:
Charm them before you harm them.
When in doubt knock them out.
Ally blood spilled will get them killed.

Values:
Steel
Emotions and fragility should be left to those with nothing better to do. Such things do nothing but cause trouble and put people at risk.
Charm
A skill that doubles as both a defense and a weapon.
Mercy
Should be shown when circumstances call for it, but should be cast aside once the person in question has proved themselves unworthy of it.
Righteousness
This world is riddled with those who would do harm unto others. Those people should be dealt with quickly and efficiently.

Bonds:
~~Pipa seems to get into a lot of trouble, I need to watch her back at all times~~ – RESOLVED
Pipa’s heart is kind and true, I admire her drive to help others
Abraxas seems to struggle in almost any social situation, I will fix that somehow
Abraxas despite his struggle he is an ally that I can rely on.
Pippa and I have grown close over the last several months, I believe I can trust her and I hope she can trust me. We both seem to of suffered substantial loss and heartbreak at too young an age. Knowing this, I want her to be able to confide her troubles in me and mine to her. Together perhaps we can begin to heal.
I am so completely out of my element. From the snow on the ground to a culture I do not understand, this is clearly not my expertise. As much as I hate to admit it, Pippa’s suggestion to follow Abraxas makes sense. I will do my best to swallow my pride and be the best I can be.
I’ve made baby steps towards opening up and trusting my companions just as Cayden has commanded me, but I can’t seem to get over the larger hurdles. If I am ever going to have this divine curse lifted I will either need to embrace this forced honesty or convert to a new God. Wherein the latter isn’t really an option. Oh Cayden, why have you betrayed me so?

Menet Serbana – Level 3

Dustin Alexander — Wed, 17 Oct 2018 19:00:48 +0000

Menet Serbanea
Menet is a half-Garundi, half-Varisian woman who has spent half of her life in Osirion, and half traveling with a Varisian caravan. As a working class child in Osirion, she learned of Khepri, who she worshipped devotedly from the moment she was given a choice. As a Paladin of Khepri, she fights for the working folk, those oppressed by the nobility and without the means to fight for themselves.

Menet has felt an undeniable wanderlust in her heart from a very young age. She adapts quickly to new terrains, and though she grew up under the harsh sun of Osirion, she’s just as comfortable in the colder climes of Irrisen.

Player: Jessica Negin
Alignment: Lawful Good
Character Class: Palad
Current Level: 2
Deity: Kehpri
Homeland: Osirion
Race: Human

Size: Medium

Menet Serbanea – Level 2
Menet Serbanea – Level 3

Alignment Statement:
“At the end of the day, I fight for those who cannot fight for themselves. If that makes me an outlaw, so be it. I’ve been called worse.” – Angela Parkhurst, Forget Me Not

“God made this money – the fresh air, too – for his children’s use. He never made the difference between poor and rich.” – Rebecca Harding Davis, Life in the Iron Mills and Other Stories

Values:
Freedom
None who may be redeemed should be imprisoned, and none should be restricted by circumstance. Menet believes that only the most heinous criminals deserve to be in a cage, and even they may be redeemed under different circumstances.
Compassion
Menet believes that all who live deserve that life, and deserve the basic necessities of life. Every person should be provided shelter, food, and healing, and she will do her best to help those who go without.
Adventure
Born of the migratory Garundi and caravaneering Varisians, Menet’s proclivity for travel and adventure is in her blood. She feels most at home on the road, and especially in locales that differ greatly from Osirion.
Humility
Menet has never been a woman of prodigious means. She has cobbled together a suit of armor, acquired weaponry second-hand, and basically scraped by since birth. She knows she looks nothing like the shining Paladins of Iomedae or Desna, but she also knows that people look to her for hope. She will never show self-consciousness about her patchwork armor, nor her well-worn weapons, whether she feels distressed by them or not. She exudes confidence regardless of her circumstances, and hopes to inspire confidence in those she serves – the poor and downtrodden.

Bonds:
Pippa and I have similar aims, I want to help her to reach her goals.
Pippa has a hunger for wealth, I want to dissuade her from pursuing coin as it is a corrupting force. I believe we should both be aiming to dismantle the system that requires it and creates such disparity between people based on earthly goods.
Odessa is sensitive under that hard outer shell, and I want to protect her from the things in the world that will cause her psychological or physical pain.
Odessa hides her feelings, I want to help her become comfortable being vulnerable, at least with her friends.
Abraxas is unabashedly himself, and I never want him to feel that he needs to be otherwise. I want to protect his innocence and prevent him from becoming self-conscious in a world that will judge him.
Abraxas is knowledgeable about nature and traveling through wild areas, I want to learn how to be as helpful when traveling outside of cities (and without wagons and the relative comfort of the caravan). – Resolved
Abraxas’ knowledge of Irrisen will be invaluable in our journey. I should spend time comparing notes with him.

Pippa Locksley – Level 3

Dustin Alexander — Wed, 17 Oct 2018 15:00:23 +0000

Pippa Locksley
Pippa Locksley was born the youngest daughter of two innkeepers in Northern Taldor. She’s 35 years old and the “mom” friend. She isn’t overly fond of camping, but loves to travel. She’s a bit vain, very prideful and curious to a fault. She’s more of a con artist than a traditional thief – she swindles the hell out of most nobles and rich folks she encounters. If there’s something she really wants though, she’ll find a way to get it!
More importantly, Pippa’s a bit of a do-gooder and often involves herself in trouble in the towns she and her companions visit out of a sense of frontier justice and a distrust that nobles will actually protect the people under their rule.

Player: Abbie Lammel
Actor: Natalie Dormer
Alignment: Chaotic Good
Character Class: Rogue
Current Level: 1
Deity: Calista
Homeland: Taldor
Race: Halfling

Size: Small
Gender: Female
Age: 35
Birthday: Oathday, Rova 22 4678 AR
Height: 2’8″
Weight: 73 lb
Hair: Blonde
Skin: White

Character Sheet:
Pippa Locksley – Level 1 Rogue
Pippa Locksley – Level 2 Rogue
Pippa Locksley – Level 3 Sorcerer

Alignment Statement:
Most laws exist to protect and enforce the status of those in power, and breaking them in the service of regular people or mine and my companions comfort (preferably both) is the right thing to do.

Values:
Pippa protects her own above all others. From her informants to her landlady in her townhouse in the capital city to her butler to the guy who fences her “repatriated” artifacts she takes an interest in their lives and troubles.
Pippa is prideful. She knows she’s worth about 10 of any mark or enemy she comes across.
She believes in eye for an eye justice, and if someone has been wronged in her view she will extract exact punishment
Sorcerers and wizards are Trouble, and should be given a wide berth. However, magic is wondrous and fascinating and strange.
If she can’t do something smart, Pippa will do something right

Bonds:
Odessa proved herself a trustworthy ally and a good friend to me when she helped me out of a rough spot a few weeks ago. I want to prove myself and equally trustworthy friend to her as we continue to travel together.
I’m really, really, REALLY curious about Odessa’s “gun”. I want her to let me fire it. Just once.
Abraxas is a fascinating combination of ferocity and guilelessness that I find precious and worth protecting. I want to teach him about my world, but not let it touch him too much.
~~I want to learn as much about him and his homeland as possible. I have always been fascinated by the wild north, and have never met a druid – I must know everything!~~ – Resolved
Abraxas has told me much about his homeland in our weeks of travel together and now we are heading there. Something that fills me with both wonder and terror. I must remember that in this environment Abraxas knows more than I do and I have to let him lead and teach me now.
Menet is like a character out of one of my mother’s stories! Strong, noble, open and brave – having her come with us makes me feel more able to come out of this adventure alive. She gives away money like it doesn’t matter and will bankrupt us quickly if I don’t keep an eye on it.
Menet charged ahead of the party toward the sound of screams, which is a noble reaction, but a highly impractical one. I fear that one day she will either walk into a trap with no one able to reach her in time, or that she will give away our position at the wrong moment.

Taking time to find the right fit. Creating Menet.

Dustin Alexander — Thu, 13 Sep 2018 12:58:21 +0000

When I began creating characters for the podcast, I ran into several stumbling blocks. First, I created a Paladin who was, unbeknownst to me, remarkably similar to one on another actual play podcast. That was obviously out, and I had to say goodbye to a beautiful, sweet boy that I’d fallen in love with (RIP Keanu).

Then I started getting some pretty crazy ideas about a Cleric of an Outer God or a chaotic neutral Cleric of Nethys/Calistria/Naderi. All of that sounded really fun, but difficult to maintain. I became particularly obsessed with a Cleric of Yog-Sothoth I had written up, and had to come to terms with the fact that she was definitely not playable long-term. As for the others, I’ve played nothing but chaotic neutral sorcerers since the start of my Pathfinder tenure, so playing another CN caster felt too easy. They’ve been badass and very fun to play, sure, but I wasn’t stretching my legs at all. Though there are definitely many more avenues I would like to explore with such characters, but that’s best left for a different post.

Ultimately, after toying with a Paladin of Arshea (very fun), and a Paladin of Yuelral (a bit less fun), Dustin suggested the god Khepri to me. I wasn’t feeling a strong connection to any of my Paladins (even if the Paladin of Arshea seemed fun), so I wasn’t sure how I would feel trying to create yet another one. It became apparent immediately, however, that this was the one. Her backstory practically wrote itself.

A suave, Robin Hood-esque, freedom-fighting, half-Varisian, half-Garundi Paladin of the people sounded exactly like the character I wanted to play. I loved her, and I loved imagining how I would play her. She’s sexy, she’s laid back, she’s good-natured, she’s dashing, she’s fun, and she’s out of her damn mind. She’s a patchwork of ideas and archetypes that usually don’t fit inside the mold of a Paladin, but I think she’s perfect. We’ll see how she develops together, and I’m excited to take that journey with you!

Labeling the Container

Abbie Lammel — Wed, 05 Sep 2018 20:06:44 +0000

Dustin and I went and got tattoos together in July (pictured above) and no lie, that was easily the nerdiest thing I’ve ever done. Yes, I’m including starting an actual play Pathfinder podcast with my friends online in my estimation of that. We both got watercolor D20 tattoos and, to complete the look, I had our artist add my adorable cat, Thor, to mine.
We were discussing tattoos and identity and why people choose what they choose and Jackie Rabbit (our amazing artist) said that she heard one of her other clients refer to tattooing as “labeling the container.” That statement hit me hard as such an accurate representation of what body modification can be – taking the physical body that was made for us completely beyond our control and marking it with what we know to be true of ourselves on the inside so we are better reflected and better known.
So here’s how I’ve labeled myself so far: a lover of games and my cat, a devoted sister, an anthropologist, a playful if easily distracted friend, a hoarder of knowledge and sparkly items and a fantasy superfan. I also have a #basicbitch tattoo of a flock of crows representing…something about…my wrist looking cooler with that tattoo on it, because your tattoos don’t have to have any further meaning beyond you liking how it looks. Who knows what else I’ll add as I continue to develop as a person but one thing is certain: I am getting SO MANY MORE – I have a lot of unlabeled space left.
P.S. if you want a good tattoo Instagram account to follow check out Jackie’s (@jackie_rabbit) – she does the neatest fantasy/horror/gothic art and her feed is a delight. Show yours off too, tag us on Twitter or whatever, I love seeing everyone’s ink!

Building Character Depth. Creating Odessa.

Kay O'Connor — Tue, 28 Aug 2018 22:00:56 +0000

I have played many characters in my time, I have fallen in love with each and every one of them, but Odessa feels special.
I wanted to sew more of myself into her than I typically would, but still allow her to evolve independently. So when I was figuring out how she thinks, or how she acts I decided to take a trip into the past. In this day in age I am in a serious relationship and I’m neck deep in school with the goal of getting my graduate degree and a mountain of certifications. I wanted Odessa to be free to do whatever she wanted. So I took pieces of myself from when I was in my early 20’s: sassy, flirty, kind of a bitch, crazy hair colors.
From there I just went nuts. I gave her some trauma, set her up with some goals of her own, and motivation to drive her. While we are definitely separate, I relate to her a lot.
Dustin will probably be the first to tell you about how crazy in depth I tend to go with my character history and background. But I tend to keep it up my sleeve until it becomes necessary in game. It’s definitely a gamble because if the worst should happen there’s a lot the world will never know. But I’m proud of her. I very much hope she survives long enough to tell her story.

Finding Inspiration. Creating Pippa.

Abbie Lammel — Tue, 28 Aug 2018 12:02:16 +0000

When we started dreaming up what we wanted to do for this podcast, I was pretty sure right away that I either wanted to go Wizard or Rogue. Honestly I was leaning more toward wizard, BUT I was scrolling through Netflix one fateful Sunday morning with nothing better to do than watch a movie and I stumbled on an old favorite: Dirty Rotten Scoundrels. And my initial concept for a high class con-artist was born.
Originally I saw her as a (more) dishonest Carrie Bradshaw – witty, quick to anger, obsessed with shoes and a hater of the outdoors. Some of that survived (the shoes and the temper). She was going to be human, but since the rest of the party was turning up ostensibly human I wanted to mix it up a bit. Also, those Stealth bonuses for Halflings are no joke.
Pippa didn’t have a name for the longest time. It was actually the last thing about her I decided on! I eventually landed on naming her after my all-time favorite “Halfling”, Peregrine “Pippin” Took from LOTR. There’s also a bit of a Pippi Longstocking sound to her name as well, which I also thought suited her. Her last name is shared with Robin Hood, for obvious reasons.
When I was creating her character, I honestly never envisioned her as someone so kind and committed to a general concept of good. She was going to have a pretty average moral compass for a thief – an every Halfling for herself kind of attitude. Dustin laid out an excellent argument for making her a good character, partially that it would be a more interesting choice for a thief – but also because I am a known villain sympathizer and playing a Good aligned person would be a fun challenge for me.
So far I’m having a blast with her! We’ll see how long I can keep her alive – the longer we can go without bumping into someone who needs our help against overwhelming odds the better. Or someone with lots of money that’s also smart enough to know Pippa’s not really a princess.
P.S. She’s currently being played by Natalie Dormer. Don’t sue me Natalie, this is a great honor for you.

I never wanted to be a DM: Confessions of a new Dungeon Master

Dustin Alexander — Tue, 28 Aug 2018 05:43:25 +0000

I never ever wanted to be a Dungeon Master, I have been playing for decades at this point, but it never interested me. In part because I thought I lacked the creativity to pull it off. Additionally I thought the people for whom I have historically played with would tear me alive and that freaked me out.
Then a few years ago I was really starting to struggle with character creation. Nothing seemed exciting, I would create a character and have ZERO desire to build a backstory or develop their background. What was the point? I even started to wonder if maybe it was time to stop playing. To find some new hobby that might capture my interest once again.
Then I ran across the podcast Friends at the Table. The first episodes had poor audio quality, but I stuck with it, and was glad I did. Little did I know I would listen to a incredible world and cast of character be created in front of my very eyes.
It was a game rich in team development. A bard was not just a Bard with a spell list, he was a Bard who would explain how and why his spell worked. He was not merely a storyteller, he was a member of a group that collected and archived information across the world. The fighter came from a land where she would eventually have to choose between her people and her friends. A Paladin was not just a protector of his god, but possibly just used as tool by his god. Zombie pirates were not undead evil creatures, they were nearly immortal beings at a stage in the life cycle. These beings pillaged to bring supplies to their city. The world was not just there to exist enough to live in, it was given life by its characters and the imaginations of the players. The DMs job was to weave it all together into a rich tapestry of a game. For the first time I was excited to play again.
I immediately bought the book and showed it to my gaming friends, hopeful I could convince them to give it a try, they were all interested, but I could quickly tell their enthusiasm was not quite where I was or what was needed to build a world.
So it was at that point, for the first time ever, I realized it was time to take matters into my own hands. I had to find another group people that were as excited about building a world as I was. Almost all the people who are in this podcast now were the members of that original group. Quickly my concerns about my lack of creativity and my shaky confidence began to improve.
I will admit, at first I borrowed heavily from Friends at the Table, but it did not take long with everyone’s involvement in the creation of that world to slowly become something different. It also helped to have an amazing group just as excited about the land of Locke and the City of San Madque as I was. Before I knew it I was having discussions with the players about their characters round the clock. They didn’t just create a backstory they created entire cultures and pantheons, or in some cases, destroyed gods.
Just a few days into being a Dungeon Master for an intrepid group of friends and I found a fire I thought had been long extinguished. It found its way because of a desire to tell stories first and focus on the math second. To use our surroundings and go on Fantastic Adventures and to create new and interesting stories.
Some may wonder why we switched from Dungeon World a place where you can build unlimited worlds to that of Pathfinder game. For me it was one of curiosity, what if we put story first and math second in a Pathfinder game. I love the Dungeon World, but a part of me craved a little more guidance and Adventure Paths allow us to focus on character development and put them in an active outline of a story. We still get to put characters first, we still get to develop a world rich in history in our own way. We can take the guidance provided and make it our own. That excited me.
Whether or not we do it well? My dear reader I will leave that decision up to you.

I am playing a few online games at the moment. It is not uncommon for me to look up talent or ship builds. Y’all know what I am talking about, right? Yah you do, you delightful nerds. I don’t do that as often when building pen and paper characters. When it was time to roll up a toon for the Reign of Winter campaign, I didn’t scour the internet for THE best first level toon. I had a basic idea revolving around a winter druid. Lucky for me the arctic druid archetype existed. I will be honest with you, I immediately thought about rolling an Aasimar. They pack some sweet racial traits. What druid wouldn’t like a nice Wisdom and Charisma boost? He looked pretty good by the time I finished up. Then I got to thinking about a Mowgli character. Raised by wolves prior to finding the path of the druid. A few days passed, and I still liked the idea. The week progressed, and I kept on musing about a feral background. Story first, math second. Says it right on our website. So, I scrapped the Aasimar druid build and wrote a decent character background. I chose feats and skills based on wilderness survival instead of boosting my AC or damage. When the time comes to increase an ability score at level 4, I am leaving my Wisdom as is. I have never done that with any prior character; ability increase equals primary stat boost. I am excited to see how far Abraxas can go and see his story unfold. I am really excited to see how his interactions with his companions affect his growth. Maybe he will pick up a bit of gunsmithing or learn to how to pick a few pockets. Only time and the story will tell.

Pippa Locksley – Level 1

Abbie Lammel — Tue, 14 Aug 2018 05:39:11 +0000

Pippa Locksley
Pippa Locksley was born the youngest daughter of two innkeepers in Northern Taldor. She’s 35 years old and the “mom” friend. She isn’t overly fond of camping, but loves to travel. She’s a bit vain, very prideful and curious to a fault. She’s more of a con artist than a traditional thief – she swindles the hell out of most nobles and rich folks she encounters. If there’s something she really wants though, she’ll find a way to get it!
More importantly, Pippa’s a bit of a do-gooder and often involves herself in trouble in the towns she and her companions visit out of a sense of frontier justice and a distrust that nobles will actually protect the people under their rule.

Pippa Locksley – Level 1

Alignment Statement:
Most laws exist to protect and enforce the status of those in power, and breaking them in the service of regular people or mine and my companions comfort (preferably both) is the right thing to do.

Values:
Pippa protects her own above all others. From her informants to her landlady in her townhouse in the capital city to her butler to the guy who fences her “repatriated” artifacts she takes an interest in their lives and troubles.
Pippa is prideful. She knows she’s worth about 10 of any mark or enemy she comes across.
She believes in eye for an eye justice, and if someone has been wronged in her view she will extract exact punishment
Sorcerers and wizards are Trouble, and should be given a wide berth. However, magic is wondrous and fascinating and strange.
If she can’t do something smart, Pippa will do something right

Bonds:
Odessa proved herself a trustworthy ally and a good friend to me when she helped me out of a rough spot a few weeks ago. I want to prove myself and equally trustworthy friend to her as we continue to travel together.
I’m really, really, REALLY curious about Odessa’s “gun”. I want her to let me fire it. Just once.
Abraxas is a fascinating combination of ferocity and guilelessness that I find precious and worth protecting. I want to teach him about my world, but not let it touch him too much.
I want to learn as much about him and his homeland as possible. I have always been fascinated by the wild north, and have never met a druid – I must know everything!
