yaaaayayaay my dnd character literally stabbed a valued ally in the back, because she's scared and someone from a mindbogglingly powerful organization ordered her to do it or they'd do something even worse to her and her loved ones and they were an authority and she believes in authority and they gave her the perfect opportunity to do it (showing that they're Watching) so she did it and now she feels so so so guilty and she's lying to everyone about it, even her own party, her own friends, and trying to convince even herself of the lie- but on the other hand... this organization has promised her power, more power than she's ever ever had as a run-of-the-mill lower noble lady, so powerful that she might be able to use it to protect her entire realm from destruction. to be the Right ruler. and don't the ends justify the means?

#dont worry this was completely cleared above table with everyone present #and the DM v literally said 'ive got things planned for either route; its your choice'#and. well. i love a character who makes terrible choices #also who isn't aware of narrative structure and so can't be sure that the rebels will stand aaaaany chance if she aligns herself to them #dnd #joos yaps #adelaide olmus #she's Lawful Neutral for a reason :)#so excited for whatever will happen next #she got a small powerboost too :')#glad i spent the last few sessions making sure that OOC the party -knew- that one of her core believes is like.#the divine right of kings. 'some people were just born to rule #as others are born to be farmers or merchants or teachers'
