Now that I am back from work, I can fully respond to everyone.

<Snipped quote by Guardian Angel Haruki>

Aye, I want to play this one cause of the interesting focus of barbarian and companion.


OK. Just wanted to make sure. ^_^ Now I can fully look into the subclass.

Ooooh, I just realized what you said... I'm a bit slow at times... Hmmm... that is a good point. Hmmm... maybe I'll do a Kenku faelock


Would fit the faewild feel, or ranger Drakewarden (would be cool if the Drake could be flavored as a griffon~?)


No worries. I just want to make sure everyone has a chance in the spotlight and nobody's toes are being stepped on. ^_^

<Snipped quote by Guardian Angel Haruki>

For what it's worth; After looking it over, the subclass seems balanced. Underpowered, if anything, by modern D&D subclass standards.
The guardian-variant companion is pretty tanky and makes for a good shield, but using it to shield squishier party members limits its damage output. The offensive variant is slightly more damage than using a BA for an off hand attack, but apart from the land bound form basically making itself a flanking companion without asking, it's not especially potent.

The rest of the class is just niche utility that could be covered by a Find Familiar spell.


Thank you, Necroes. ^^"

I'll fill whatever role the party needs


Play what you want to play. ^_^
Again, I'm just want to make sure that nobody gets to a point where they might feel overshadowed. ^^"

@Sister Sable

Instead of making many posts in rapid succession, have you by any chance considered taking everything you want to say and writing it all out in one post?


<Snipped quote by rush99999>

I-... Sorry sir...


There's no need to apologize @Sister Sable. ^^"
I can understand if you're nervous.

As Necroes mentioned earlier, this is a slow paced game. Feel free to take as much time as you need while writing your posts.

There is no pressure here. ^_^

Okay, that's fair... I think the Wild Magic Barb and this Barb should be different enough that I shouldn't be too much in his way. He'll have fantastical magic while I have a pretty bird or pup. If the group's barbarian doesn't mind. If not, I'll play the Drakewarden.

I don't have anything to write so you can continue on.


Thank you!

I'll wait for @Sister Sable to finish their character before I write the next DM post.

Nibs' Cave is the perfect place to introduce a new character. Especially with Aurora venting to Juniper the Owlbear. ^_^

I'll be typing it up either tonight or tomorrow. I got distracted yesterday after finishing my character with trying to finish Mist Born. Today has been crazy and I'll be in bed soon, so I'll probably work on it during and after school

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!

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.

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.

However! 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. ^_^

Hello! Thanks for getting back to me.

happy to have Juniper later turn into a person, or even another kind of pet/companion that is more appropriate for the party. I'm also open to Juniper being a druid in disguise that somehow got temporarily beefed up in the Domain of Delight and couldn't figure out how to change back? Whatever works best for you! If you let me know I'll start working on the character/narrative.

Could she do something along the lines of a Custom Lineage?

Could have been cursed by some fey to be an owlbear for some reason and something has happened to break it.
