Mitzy Lore Post

Mitzy's true origin is lost to time, and possibly tragedy.

Gullybog was not known for being particularity foreboding or dangerous, other than having unsure footing. This was thanks in part to a local hermit-wizard, simply known as Simon. Simon was an aged man who had seen far more than most humans in their lifetime. A failed final adventure had him set aside ambition and recluse himself in the swamp. He never fully set aside his kindly nature, and consigned himself to helping the locals, albeit largely indirectly, avoiding most contact and creating a legend out of himself in the process. One day, Simon heard an infant's cries not too far from his abode. A small purple-skinned babe was found off the side of Gullybog Road, some few steps into the swamp. This child was proportionally similar to a halfling or a goblin, but her species was ultimately unknown. Attempts to divine the who or what left the child, despite pouring his magical prowess into the mystery, proved fruitless. And so, late in his life, Simon became a father. Despite being in the middle of nowhere, Mitzy's unusual upbringing included a great deal of intellectual schooling. Simon's magecraft and vast collection of magical and historical tomes meant the isolated Mitzy did not want for learning. She took to magecraft itself with gusto. Over the years she forged a bond with the elemental plane, collecting several loyal elementals which are still summoned to her side regularly in the present day.

During Mitzy's late teenage years, Simon's life waned. He passed away on an uneventful afternoon with his hand clutched by his daughter's. Mitzy saw to his cremation the next day, and thus began a new local legend of the Bog Witch. Mitzy carried on her father's minor do-gooding for the people of the swamp into her early twenties, until a chance run-in with a group of adventurers gave her an epiphany. She hungered to expand her knowledge and her aptitude, she needed to experience more than the swamp and the tomes she'd read and re-read a half dozen times could offer. She needed to find out where she came from.

After leaving the bog, Mitzy would go on to become part of an adventuring group of her own, two odd goblins from different societies who would become like sisters to her: Chakka the unyielding barbarian warrior, and Krix the shadow-manipulating thief. ----- Mitzy is a Wizard who's focus is on summoning a rotation of loyal Elementals. She can have one elemental consistently accompany her at any time without limitation. They can act on their own in accordance with their personalities, or can infuse Mitzy's attire, granting her additional defenses and augmenting her other spells. Her current elementals are: Ivan - Fire, Aggressive, burning aura sears foes and cleanses afflictions from allies. Slab - Earth, Protective, manipulates the environment in the party's favor. Leviafas - Lightning, Dispassionate, singles out high-priority threats, increases flow of mana. Melut - Ice, Sloth, chills foes and disperses enemy magics.

MXTX DnD

Scum Villain's Self Saving System

Shen Qingqiu:

Class: Fighter (Eldritch Knight)

Background: (the closest to Shen Jiu's past is "Stojanow Prisoner" the closest to Shen Yuan is something between Sage, Hermit and Faceless)

SJ and SY have very different stat spreads. SY has very high charisma, SJ is much less charismatic (though considering the loyalty he inspires in those who truly love him? Maybe his personality just counters it) SY, basically, is the result of a Dark Gift. Specifically Echoed Soul. When be gets "echoes" they come from SJ, who is technically deceased.

Luo Binghe

Class: Sorcerer (Divine Soul. No I do not take criticism) Luo Bingge multi classes with Hexblade Warlock.

LBH is also extremely charismatic, high CON and decent intelligence and wisdom.

LBH is hilariously OP and has a bunch of different Feats

Shang Qinghua:

Class: Bard (College of Lore)

Background: Double Agent (with the caveat that he is genuinely loyal to both groups)

Mobei-Jun

Class: Barbarian (Storm Herald. Tundra) though, because he's God's Favouritest Little Princess (even more than LBH is, who is canonly overpowered) he can also cast spells (mostly used for teleportation spells)

Yue Qingyuan

Class: Paladin (Redemption)

Liu Qingge

Class: Barbarian (Zealot)

I had just came up with an idea: The Beast Cookies as a DnD group, known as the Beast Party; an old group of heroes that existed for a very long time and were seen as saviors, but as time went on, people began to become more ungrateful, greedy, selfish, and so much more that they were done and turned over to the side of evil.

Mystic Flour Cookie is a Cleric (Tempest Domain), acolyte/hermit background, a Mummified Drider, lawful evil, and is 7 ft.

Eternal Sugar Cookie is a Bard (College of Whispers), an urchin background, chaotic evil, is a Deva Angel-Erinyes mix, and is 5'2" ft.

Burning Spice Cookie is a Barbarian (Path of Berserker), and outlander/gladiator background, an Orog (a child of a male Orc and a female Ogre), is chaotic evil, and is 8 ft.

Silent Salt Cookie is a Paladin (Oathbreaker), a knight/hermit background, a Death Knight species, is neutral evil, and is 6 ft.

And finally, Shadow Milk Cookie is a Druid (Circle of Stars), once a sage now an entertainer background, chaotic evil, and is a 3'4" ft. tall Changeling.

What do you think of it?

I suppose it’s pretty interesting, even if my knowledge with this is pretty limited

Got DnD on my mind, so here's Demoman as an Elf Blood Hunter, Medic as a Tiefling Cleric, and Heavy as a Half-Orc Barbarian 💃

Btw, if you haven't already, please go and sign the petition for #FixTF2 that's on this site right here: https://save.tf/

A few side notes for these three drawings:

If you're wondering what race and class (and maybe subclass) I chose for the rest of the squad, you can read the post I made right here. And since making that post, I also tried assigning backgrounds as well (that comes with the basic DnD Player's Handbook). Demoman would be (as you can obv see) a Sailor, but moreso specifically the Pirate variant. Medic meanwhile would be a Sage (that was actually pretty well respected, but then did something that got him kicked out). And I thought that Heavy would probably be a Hermit. As for what I picked out for the others; Soldier is a Soldier, Spy is a Criminal (Spy variant), Scout is a Charlatan, Sniper is an Outlander, Engineer is a Guild Artisan, and idk what to pick for Pyro between Folk hero, Urchin, and Noble.

At first, I was a bit iffy what to pick for Demoman between him being an Elf, Half-Elf, and a Minotaur. But then I said "Fuck it. I don't care if Elves are supposed to have lighter skin and straighter hair or whatever, let this handsome af man be an Elf with long, curly hair." I like it :)

I had such a struggle trying to figure out how to color Medic's outfit o(-( At first, it was going to be a lot of off-white colors with a bit of red, then some off-white along with some red and black, then darker colors with some red, so on and so forth. Ngl, it tired me out a lil' orz Oh, and his holy symbol is an amulet he has hidden away in his clothing.

The staff Medic's holding is something I tinkered around with quite a few days ago riiiight here. Idk, I just really liked how the staff looked :')

Imo, I was a bit lazy with Heavy's outfit orz Mostly 'cause I have no clue how to spice up Barbarian clothes besides "give it a bit of fur."

ZIT as D&D for @shepscapades Hermit Design Swap event! Details below cut :)

Zedaph is a satyr Alchemist Artificer! He loves random tables, like wild magic and madness, and will purposefully throw himself into traps in dungeons multiple times in order to get the DM to roll on the table again. He has died twice already. His characters are all exactly the same except for one letter in their name.

Tango is a fire genasi of teifling origin Draconic Bloodline Sorcerer. He’s the new player who decided to make their character fire themed and only fire themed with every solution being “firebolt”, “scorching ray” or, of course, “FIREBALL”. He did not know that fire damage was one of the most common resistances, but boy did he have a good time when they fought some Blights that one time.

Impulse is a fallen aasimar of dwarf origin Oath of Conquest Paladin with 1 level in Barbarian. Impulse is the only player to ever exist in dnd who a) likes puzzles and b) can solve them. This makes his DM very happy. He also loves minmaxing characters, to the point where he had to be nerfed at some point.

Sooooo I had made a little Ice Planet Barbarians crossover thing a while back while stuck in art block. Just realized that I never posted it anywhere.

[plumadot]

hi plume!! do you have any hcs/thoughts on what each hermit or life series member’s dnd class would be?? i’ve thought about it a lot (like pearl and scar are both rangers to me) but i love seeing if other people think similarly to me!!

GFDJGKJFKGJFD eeeeeeeeeeeee i've been thinking about this quite a bit but i didn't know whether it was weird to post it lmao i've been wanting to try and make the magical mountain friends into a d&d party haha

scar is always a bard for me (college of lore to be specific), but i think he's a bard/ranger this season!!!!! ren is definitely a bard as well, maybe college of eloquence. grian's weird thing with the ocean makes him a fathomless warlock for me lmao. gem is a swashbuckler rogue but mmmm maybe also some levels of druid. lots of redstoners would make great artificers or maybe even sorcerers or wizards. impulse also has cleric energy to me because idk he has healer vibes. i somehow feel like skizz would be a barbarian but like. the heart of gold type of character jgkfdjg. oh and doc could be a conquest paladin for the goat mother. and bdubs is a moss druid yes i just made that up but you know!!!!!! you know!!!! lol i think that's most of what i've been thinking about kgfjdkgj i love pearl as a ranger!!!! time to think about that more now heheh
