Some people need to make a hard choice when deciding which two karaoke streams they want to listen to. I have no such weakness: I have two ears for a reason.

The hard part about trying to play some politically savvy mastermind is the assumption that the world operates off real world politics and not your DM’s politics.

Don't put too much stock in prophesies. At best they're full of shit, but more often than not they're one of those self-fullilling kinds. Plan for what happens afterwards instead.

A character isn't deep or compelling just because you let them get hurt a lot, are always depressed, or do morally questionable things.

Bio



If you're here either you're wondering what I'm doing cause I need to post in your RP (In which case, calm yo tits, I'll get around to it), or you want to know who I am. So let's begin.

I'm a college age asian kid who has more heart than he has senses. I'm still working out this whole "adulthood" thing, so until then I just do what I feel I must. As far as personality and traits go, I'm not one for boasting. So if there's anything redeeming about myself you'd have to figure it out in person or by word-of-mouth. Generally however I'm rather perverted, in the best and worst ways. nothing is too much until I've crossed the line, and that just means I've started.

As far as Roleplays I like, I have a thing for fantasy, though I'm also good for some types of sci-fi, supernatural, Modern, and slice-of-life. If it's open and sandbox, I'll probably join it. Never really been a romantic, I often chose to sexualize any notion of romantic encounters I come across. I generally write at Casual quality, though I have no issues with Free-Level Rp/Players and I can hold my own in Advance.

With everyone patched up, Buddy took the lead down the tunnel. Shortfang quickly fixed up his crossbow, as the slime's acid had snapped the string, and Pylia dismissed her magic flying sword as they went further into the sewers. The rooms they were going into were bigger now, though not by munch, and the smell wasn't quite as rank as the previous areas. You could hear the sound of rushing water ahead. Eventually the smaller tunnels lead to a much larger room, and what was here was quite a sight.

This place hardly looked like it belonged in a sewer, as it was practically a hall of it's own. Some sort of waterway, it has seen better days. More so since right now it looked like a terrible battlefield. On one side behind crude wood and stone barricades were kobolds slinging rocks and throwing anything they had on hand at a bunch of troglodyes, lizard men like creatures but unnaturally pale flesh, wearing bloodred warpaint and little else. The only ones on the ground stopping them was two kobolds armed with shields and short swords, but they also rode upon two giant crocodiles. Still they were heavily outnumbered and they were very wounded despite how much damage they were doing to the trogs. Shortfang shouted in fury. "Sewer Dragons! Trogs attack family!" Buddy raised his hand to quiet Shortfang. Fortunately it didn't seem like the trogs heard due to the sounds of combat.

A quick count would show that there were at least twelve trogs here, most of them engaged with the kobolds on the ground. Of the kobolds there were six, two fighting among the trogs, four trying to attack with stones and other weapons. The party itself was a good distance away from the main fighting, and upon closer inspection there was still pools of raw sewage that would not only slow down your movement, but might just make you sick. Counting out on her fingers Pylia looked grim. "I still have a few spells. Let's be ready for anything, everyone." She gave a quiet prayer to bless everyone as Shortfang looked at you. "What now boss? Charge yeah?" Buddy gripped his axe, ready for anything.


Shortfang wiped himself down of the acid, hacking up gelatinous spit. "Ugh... Shortfang okay... Feel hurt, but alive. Can keep fighting. But we be careful now." At that moment, Buddy took out the notebook from his backpack and wrote a message loud and clear for everyone. Im staying up front. He seemed pretty adamant about this. Shortfang just chuckled softly. "Okay. Shortfang tough, but Shortfang don't wanna do that again." Meanwhile Pylia was looking on the trog body, not finding much except a belt pouch with three silver arrowheads and some sort of strange rock. It looked red and veiny, but otherwise it didn't seem to do anything. "Oozes... Next time we run across a dead body, let's be more careful with it. Maybe throw a rock at it or something. Everyone ready to move on?"

You fire your radiant bolts right into the gelatinous cube, the first one causing significant searing, and the second one burning a hole right through it. The thing was done for by the time your last shot scattered the remains, causing the cube to burst. Though you could feel a sizzle from the acid that splashed onto you, the burn quickly subsides, doing no meaningful harm. That being said, your arms were severely damaged, and Shortfang himself was covered in welts and burns. Pylia approached carefully, using her Silver Sword to poke at the trog, stabbing it for good measure in case it was alive somehow. Holding her hands together, Pylia created a handful of good berries, Half which she gave to you and half which she gave to Shortfang. "Here, heal up until the burns are gone. Do it now before they begin to scar!" Shortfang painfully ate his berries, the wounds on his body healing thanks to the magic powers in the fruits.

You were able to avoid the slime's attack easily, and at the same time you managed to pull Shortfang's unconscious body out and away from the slime. Seeing this Pylia says a quick word of prayer to heal him. "Good job!" Pylia summoned a ball of fire and hits the slime with it, causing it to sizzle. "Get away from that thing quickly! They're slow, but tough to take down!" As the fire struck the cube, it sizzled and continued to move onto you, trying to consume you since you were the closest at the moment. Fortunately you were able to avoid getting sucked in, though now you were separated from Shortfang. Shortfang had recovered enough of his senses to try and get a second wind, though the acid burns made it hard for him to even breath. Still he wasn't going to let that damn thing hurt you, so he pulled out his short sword and tried to stab the thing, uncertain if his blow did any damage. These cubes don't exactly bleed or scream.

Shortfang was still struggling to recover when Buddy charged the beast. His axe glowed with an awesome power as he hacked his blade through a large bulk of the ooze, causing audible sizzles. But his follow up stab with the other end of his blade seemed to caused even more damage than that, so much that the ooze started to violently shake from the damage. Perhaps it was in pain, or maybe Buddy's attack was just particularlly effective, but regardless he made sure to body block the ooze from trying to get to Shortfang as best as he could. He looked at you through the ooze, just straight through the ooze and arguably even through you. He had a very intense glow to his eyes.

Sorry for the super late reply. Could you give me another dexterity saving throw? Cube's gunna try and go after you again.
Try as you might, the ooze surrounded your arms like a heavy cement, burning through your sleeves and into your skin. The combination of the sheer pain and the weight of the ooze prevented you from saving Shortfang, who was struggling to escape himself. "Dammit! Dammit!" She grasped her holy symbol and summoned forth her Silver Sword once more to try and cut Shortfang out from the ooze. Though the blade made a clear cut, the ooze simply reformed and continued to exist. Pylia cursed and summoned holy fire this time to try and incinerate the cube, doing as much as she can to damage the slime before Shortfang expires. But it wouldn't be enough.

The acid continued to eat away at Shortfang, burning his scales and skin. Try as he might the pain is too much even for him, and soon he passes out inside of the cube. Syfr was going crazy trying to find some way to get the ooze to release him, but all he could do was helplessly fly around, dropping rocks to do an insignificant amount of damage but hopefully distract the creature. However it made a move towards you, aiming to consume you as well. Hearing the fight Buddy runs as fast as he can, and seeing the cube as it was moving towards you he tries to run into the melee as well, seconds too late as the monster is upon you.

Driving home so will respond soon, but you can either try and help Shortfang get out yourself with a strength check as an action (you will take 3d6 acid trying to pull him out) or yes you can try and use a help action to give him advantage, however I should warn you of two things which Sylvia herself may not be aware of:

Firstly Shortfang has a strength Save of a whopping +0, so its highly debatable if he could get out under his own power. And because the slime would get to act before him, on its turn Shortfang will automatically take 6d6 acid Damage. That is on average a 21, more than enough to take him down. In which he would be unable to get himself out anyways. Buddy himself has been walking 30 ft away from the party as to not blow your stealth, so he’d need to move and dash in order to reach Shortfang or anyone else who might end up getting engulfed.
Nice, you actually manage to roll higher than literally everyone else. Go ahead and post something!
The party continued to walk, following signs Shortfang found, until they finally reached a somewhat wider area. Seemed to be a flood room of some sort, and likely recently flooded as the ground here was fairly clean though still stunk horribly. Shortfang kept his eyes peeled as he looked around the room, continuing onwards. Pulia also kept her eyes sharp though she could only see as far as what the lantern would reveal. Soon however they’d run across another body, this time a large lizard like being. Shortfang snarled as he raised his crossbow up. “Dead trog.”

Shortfang would go to investigate, seeing if the trog had anything on him when Shortfang helped in pain. “Ow ow ow! What?!” Suddenly the air started moving, no it wasn’t the air! There was something here! “Ooze Cube!” Pylia shouted as Shortfang was sucked into an almost transparent gelatinous cube, the acid burning his body and flesh.

Roll me a perception check right quick.
