Alan frowned at the scene, and then did a double-take. What was she doing...? Then the man threw her, and Alan flinched - confused or mistaken or not, she didn't deserve that. He spoke. "Excuse me - " When the man didn't respond, Alan interspersed himself in between him and the old woman...

"Who's..." Alan looked around, confused, still stacking sandbags on reflex, until he heard it again - and then, he stepped out of line. "There's no... no princess here. Just us nobodies. Where are you? You need help?" Alan looked around, trying to figure out where the voice was coming from...

"Perhaps I shall ask around for a glassblower, one that makes the particular vial that we've found, or would recognize the handiwork? At this stage, any lead is a good one."

Alan thought about the dress. It was still there, on the dressmaker's dummy. In his mind, he was still up there, adjusting the cut, fixing the arrangement of the scarves, checking to see how it held the light. It was the first time he'd designed a dress from scratch, and he wanted it to be...

Ah, apologies, Alan's good ol' Neutral Good, though he would probably insist he's not a good person. Will add it shortly. Then I'll post a thing for this intro.

I have posted the sheet to the rogue's gallery!

@Steve Gorak I have no issues with a tiefling; would you still be a paladin?

Alan Oake hasn't been the same since he went into the woods. Not that many are complaining, because before Alan went into the woods, he was the town's resident bad boy, his skill as a tailor the only thing keeping him from being beat down twice a week. Some say it's foundling syndrome; knowing...

I was mostly gonna just nab a vanilla race and reflavor it, honestly, given that Jhary said to keep it to core. :) That said, everyone seems to be nabbing all my first picks for classes (bard, sorcerer, warlock, paladin, investigator-themed character) so I might have to rethink things a little...

Could always be another sort of wish- granting immoral demiurge, like a demon, or - to nick one of my own ideas - a genie. [emoji846]

Hey, listen: I will not say no to having another trans (or trans adjacent) character around, and maybe we could link backstories. What was your idea?

Alan Oake The Somebody? Gender: Male (seemingly) Alignment: Neutral Good Race: Mechanically: Half-Elf Stylistically: seemingly human Class: Bard 3 Background: Guild Artisan (Tailor) Attributes: Name Stat Bonus/Penalty Saving Throw STR 8 -1 -1 DEX 15 +2 +4 CON 13 +1 +1 INT 12 +1 +1...

Lavina discreetly pockets the vial, making note of its shape and color should she see another like it. When she gets a minute alone with the others, she shares what she founds, and asks if anyone's seen a glassblower that makes similar vials.

Dang, I take a few days to do finals and everyone pitches classes I'm interested in. 😁 Okay, here are my ideas: (Bard/Paladin/Cleric) Essentially, the idea would be Ozma of Oz, but a (bard/paladin/cleric.) Someone who was raised human and male in an unassuming village and then found out one...

So are we all folks from Earth who, in other realities, are D&D archetypes, or can we be from D&D "consensus fantasy universe" universes? Or a little of both?

"The herb garden would be splendid and I would love to see - and smell - it. And as for paying my way - I would be quite glad to help out, and perhaps even share the occasional halfling family recipe or two."

I'm fairly unfamiliar with Moorcock but this sounds interesting. So throwing my hat in.

Lavina is unfailingly polite, and only offers a few suggested tweaks to the recipes (she'd be no halfling at all if she didn't help make tall'un cooking better.) She thanks them for their time. Upon leaving, she remarks, "I'll recognize that smell anywhere if I smell it again. Florid. Hmmm. Are...

"No one will suspect a halfling if they inquire into food, so I'll ask how the food is typically prepared - and have a look around the kitchen while I'm at it. If anyone would care to join?"
