I mean, genasi are part elemental, I always thought that's why they can inherently speak and understand primordial. XD
Fair enough. I'm still headcanoning that Flicker's Primordial still sounds stilted and formal compared to other genasi xP

Flicker got a 17. Guess they were anticipating things going south pretty quickly xP
I like this. Interesting thing about Flicker though, is that I imagine Flicker learnt Primordial later in life, when they joined their order (it's weird for me to think all genasi are born with knowing how to speak Primordial). I like to imagine Flicker's way of speaking Primordial sounds really stilted and formal, and it's only gotten a little less formal since hanging around Jormund and Aura.
So yeah, there's free ammunition for you as something Aura could make fun of Flicker for xD
Edit: Actually, after looking over the character sheets, I realise that while all the genasi obviously speak Primordial, all of the none-genasi members of the group speaking Elvish/Elven. Flicker is the only member of the group who is fluent in both... I dunno, I just find that kind of funny, and I think you could come up with some really interesting character interactions and dynamics based on that fact.
Also all I can think about right now the the Genasi arguing with each other in Primordial and the others slowly picking up on bits and pieces of the language cuz they do it so often.

Once you reach the window do you intend to begin attacking immediately or do you want to try and avoid notice at first to get a good look at what's going on inside the tower?
Flicker will try to avoid notice and get a good look around.
Key word being try. Flicker wasn't built to be the stealthy kind of monk.
Flicker gave a small nod before picking up Rala, and was both surprised and relieved to find how light she was. The glow around Flicker's hair shifted closer to its original shade of orange, though hints of yellow remained. While some of the party may have read Flicker's discomfort as embarrassment - and that was certainly part of it - they were more concerned about accidentally burning Rala should their powers flare up... which in a stressful situation like this, was definitely possibility. They took a deep breath to calm themselves down before looking over at Aura. "Think we're ready," they said.
Lol Int and Strength both had the pleasure of being Aura's dump stat XD
It's Charisma (and potentially also Intelligence) for Flicker xP
Being part of an order of magic-studying and philosophizing monks teaches you many things, but people skills aren't one of them.
... I now regret using the word quartet, because now I have mental images of Flicker, Aura, Jormund and a fourth genasi as a barber shop quartet.
And now so do you.
And now so do you.
Who wants to place bets that Haruki's character is gonna be a water genasi? Just to complete the quartet xD
... I just realised while looking through our character sheets, we have only two members of the party who have dark vision. Given how many species in 5e have dark vision, I find this an amazing feat xD
Flicker gave a curt nod towards Aura. "Sounds good to me," they said. They gave a awkward cough as they turned their head towards Rala, not looking the rogue in the eye as they did so. "I, erm... since I'm taller, err, I probably should carry you. If, you know, that's okay..." The group would notice the glow of their hair shift from its usual shade of orange to lighter, more yellowish tone, which those who had travelled with Flicker for long enough would recognize as a sign of discomfort.
If we're doing this two-way attack, Flicker'll probably take the window.
