TAZ vs Dracula spelling this character's name poll

The character mentioned is a spoiler (the name is first mentioned in episode 17), so the poll is under the cut.

If this gets enough traction, I'll make another poll that lasts seven days with more options. Put your ideas for those in the tags if you have any

How do you guys spell the name of the Dark God Beneath Angrave? I've personally been using "Ahn" since that just makes the most intuitive sense to me. It also makes it easier to distinguish in text.

The transcript for episode 17 gave at least three spellings, so I've listed those as the options. If you have any other spellings, put them in the tags and pick mine the most likely one of these three which is clearly Ahn.

you know the drill, spin this wheel of TAZ Balance characters and make your choice:

no rerolls, but you can substitute fucking for cuddling or marry for tax benefits if that's what makes it fair/competitive for you and what you vibe with. look up characters here on the wiki if you don't remember them. personally I got Sazed when I tested it and I'm fuming

in honor of the suffering game graphic novel coming out, I would like to introduce this argument from the podcast (suffering game pt 3) that got cut from the novel (understandably)

In the first battle in Wonderland, Taako wants to cast the spell "Flesh to Stone" on a regenerating poisonous slime.

Griffin disallows this, saying that slime isn't flesh.

Justin retorts that the slime is its flesh.

Travis argues that since the slime is sentient, its slime counts as flesh.

Where do you stand?

Other considerations brought up in the argument:

if the slime has skin, does that make it flesh?

Griffin notes: "if this thing had flesh it would be a bag of skin full of fuckin’ goo." to which Justin replies "What’s holding it together then, Griffin? Surface tension?"

The spell description uses the term "flesh".

Considerations I came up with:

Merriam Webster defines flesh as "the soft parts of the body of an animal and especially of a vertebrate"

the spell description for Flesh to Stone (as of 7/23/24) reads "If the target's body is made of flesh, the creature must make a Constitution saving throw."

ik griffin's the dm so whatever he says goes, this is about the argument itself, not who gets to decide what happens

clarifications below

clarifications

if you agree/disagree for multiple reasons listed, pick the PRIMARY or MOST IMPORTANT reason.

if you think flesh-to-stone could work on a slime, but not in this instance, you can pick "depends/nuance/secret 12th option"

ignore for the moment whether Taako had the spell slots for it. we all know he casts too many 6th level spells in the suffering game for it to be kosher. we're choosing to ignore that.

the adventure zone also generally ignores material components so we are too (his arcane focus would act as a substitute in this instance anyway, as the components are "a pinch of lime, water, and earth")

Stat a D&D Character

How it will work: After the results of the poll is done, I’ll rank the stats with the most votes and match then to the appropriate the D&D 5e standard stat array number (15, 14, 13, 12, 10, 8)

If this gets popular enough I might start a side blog where we make a D&D character 100% based on polls, but for now… enjoy.

Please reblog to increase sample size.
