Me, Myself and the Identities I assume

RPGs!

Currently I am in 2.5 games. Pathfinder's Curse of the Crimson Throne, quite deep in but has been placed on hold due to group availability. Jade Regent, we've tried it before and we got to Book 4, this is the redo and we're Nearing the end of Book 2.

And the most recent game, Strange Aeons, which is... Book 1? This is one that I don't know much about but has been a blast to play.

So we'll talk Aeons first. I am playing a Masked Maiden Vigilante, with an eye towards the Sanguine Angel prestige class.

Due to the nature of the campaign I don't have much in the way of history. I took the alternate human racial 'comprehensive education' and put plenty of points in knowledges and profession: Librarian. The idea is to have a split personality character, one the mild mannered and kind hearted librarian Talika Astridottir and the other... well... Former Gray Maiden, Professional Soldier, Servant of the Infernal Queens and instrument of indiscriminate justice; Umbra, Mercy Forsworn.

Having the character's personality change trigger near the end of an early combat session meant I went into a roleplay heavy section as the no-nonsense warrior persona. I made a conscious choice as a player to not just alienate everyone and instead played it stern and stoic, let the other's handle the interactions.

Their campaign trait is that they are driven by guilt. They know they have done something terrible and have to fix it.

It's a strange roleplaying experience. As Talika I'm trying to tap into my anxieties and fears almost deliberately. She is someone on the edge of a nervous break because of the dangerous situation but also desperately trying to do the right thing. To then snap to the Iron Will and Supreme Confidence of the other persona, someone of action who suffers no fools and stampedes over petty delays and social niceties.

It's getting late so a short recap on the others. My Crimson character has just died, I have a new one but they never got introduced. My jade regent character is... well... Let's call him The Outcast Ezlian. A deformed hybrid of various races seeking his destiny out of the confines of the abbey he was raised in.

Phew! Big old blog! Takes me back!

Attack on @ezlian for ArtFight!

[kazhul]

ezlian + ulf kissy compilation !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[kazhul]

he doesn’t believe in shirts, but sometimes exceptions must be made 

[kazhul]

ezlian’s first roll was a nat 20 to rip open shadowheart’s mind flayer pod with his bare hands

[cactusapple]

launch experience went about as expected (boat failed to arrive, clipped into bottom of boat and got stuck, somehow was the first person to the isles and greeted the boat at the docks)

[cactusapple]

so far i’ve played just enough of this patch to know that ezlian would LOVE zaralek caverns

[cactusapple]

youtube algorithm has given up on me and is now directly targeting my wow characters

[kazhul]

picked up retail wow a year ago specifically to get him the “love fool” title and honestly? i was so right 

[cactusapple]

pretty happy with his transmog these days (except that they won’t let me keep the rose year-round)

[cactusapple]

during ezlian’s few years in the alliance, whenever it was his turn for cooking duty, the others would always show up to “help out” (prevent a mass food poisoning incident). he never caught on and would just be like wow! :) so nice of everyone to pitch in! :) these guys are the best! :)))

[cactusapple]

ezlian got orc’d.....orczlian??

[cactusapple]

adjusted his ingame skin tone (he didn’t look dead enough)

[cactusapple]

grand theft palomino is the only quest that matters
