[quote=@bookbeak] Hi hi everyone (particularly [@Guardian Angel Haruki]) Extremely ridiculous, but is anyone signed up to play Juniper/the owlbear? I've read through a few pages of threads and characters and I don't see anyone listed. I'm new to the forum (but not to RP) and would love to hop into this one but I can see it's got a very rich history. Would love to bumble along as an owlbear friendo if it wouldn't cause too much imbalance. Let me know what you think! [/quote] [quote=@Lurking Krog] Hello and welcome. I cannot speak for Guardian Angel Haruki, but Juniper is a creature from a random encounter, and I do not know what Haruki has planned for said Owlbear. As far as I know, it was a chance occasion that we were able to not have it rip and tear through the party. I'm not sure that it will stay with us long. If you are wanting to make a character and need help feel free to ask away. [/quote] Hello and Welcome [@bookbeak]! I have to admit, this is a first: I've never had someone ask if they could play as the Owlbear. ^^" I would have to say no to playing a straight Owlbear, because it does cause imbalance when it comes to D&D mechanics. It also wouldn't be fair to you, because the Owlbear wouldn't be able to level up with the rest of the party. [u][b]However![/b][/u] I do like the narrative idea, and the party is in the Domain of Delight Prismeer. Weird stuff happening is a norm at this point. If a Bugbear can be reincarnated into a Gnome, who says an Owlbear can't be turned into a person? XD So, I would be okay with you playing as Juniper if you're okay with the Owlbear turning into a person. ^_^
