Halloween Costumes 2: Electric Boogaloo

Second party member I decided to draw for Halloween is Louis Purch (ft. Pepe the familiar)! He's a transmutation wizard who couldn't think of anything better than a sheet ghost to transmute his clothes into for his costume

I really want to play a transmutation wizard in dnd one day. Who is just a trans-mutation wizard.

Like she can change her appearance, or breath underwater, or fry a villain’s DNA like a scrambled egg.

I love making trans lesbians with symbolic body horror powers.

Saw a reverse werewolf, but in one of the worst ways. Werewolves take the form of a wolf, but it’s like a human body with a wolf head and fur all over the body. So this wolf just became flesh all over, the front paws become hand like, and it just had a nondescript male human head.

Looked bad, it’s the least turned on I’ve ever been by an animal transformation.

Widojest moments with that ran through my head this week

Ep 77 - When Jester grabs Caleb's hands and holds them while they talk about the Scourger after their lesson with Essek about dunamancy

Ep 87 - After the fight in the cathedral, the group is walking through Rexxentruum and Jester holds Caleb's and tells him 'Hey! We're here with you'

Ep 94 - Not a widojest moment but when Fjord casts Major Image and Jester reacts to the young blue dragon showing how much those moments all alone still have an effect on her

Ep 08 and 48- Caleb asks about Jester's childhood, if she went to the park or was read stories, etc. Both times he notices her getting uncomfortable and he changes the subject. Liam has talked about Caleb being a hypocrite but how he'll never say anything bad about her mother

Ep 83 - Related to the moments above, whether it was conscious or not, when Caleb say he doesn't want Jester 'suffering in a little ruby prison' and we all couldn't help thinking of the implications

Ep 91 - 'I'm the transmutation wizard, but you're the one who changes people.' This happened during the first episode I ever watched live and it will be my ship tag for them forever

Ep 77 - When Jester tells Caleb he can talk to her and Liam is tearing up and is barely able to mouth the word 'Okay' in response. You can hear his mouth moving but the captions don't pick it up. This audio and her okays haunt me

(Dani and Liam talking about how good Caduceus' voice is and hugs must be, being able to feel the rumble in his chest as he speaks)

Ep 77 - Jester buys Caleb 300 gold worth of high quality paper and ink for his two new spells, this is what precedes the iconic 'I'll tell you later' that some of us believe was in Zemnian because it sounds like Liam's American accent

Ep 56 - After Caleb was mind-controlled into fighting the group, he tells them the spell made his afraid of them and Jester responds 'Well, we are pretty scary.' She continues to try to make him smile by asking if he has anymore 'itchy fireballs'

Ep 105 - In the Vokodo fight, Caleb uses Disintegrate and on a high roll the spell it could be reflected and hit someone else, after it's pointed out Liam leans into the wizard hubris and potential angst until Matt reveals he rolled a natural one

Ep 92 - 'Do you love her?' The next month was a crazy time to be alive. With all the theories, both legitimate and in jest, Ashley avoiding answering who she was referring to, Liam being asked and originally skirting around the subject until coming around and dropping 'uselessly in love with her', Taliesin claiming he had 'So many opinions I’m going to save for the table'

Ep 94 - Jester asks everyone about their favorite color and Caleb claims not to have one

Ep 110 - This is just one episode that showcases Jester's obsession with Astrid that rivals the one she had about Avantika

Ep 11 - Everything about their first trip to Chastity's Nook and the first reference to cinnamon bear claws, which are called back to in 139

Ep 109 - Jester tells Beau that 'It would suck to be stuck behind books all day.' and then immediately turns and says 'I mean, not that there's anything wrong with books, Caleb. Books are great.' He makes her laugh when he retorts 'You're on thin ice, Lavorre.'

Ep 114 and 115 - Jester complains about Der Katzenprinz being in Zemnian and asks Caleb to cast Tongues on her so she can understand it, she flusters herself with the innuendo

Ep 49 and 94 - Jester asks 'are you secretly in love with me' and 'does anybody have a crush on me', the second being under Zone of Truth, and each time Caleb does not answer

Ep 91 - This also gets its own mention, after Caleb says he thinks the Traveler is lucky to have her, that she changes people, that he sees it every day, Jester asks 'Really' and I'll never forget how those two syllables sounded

Ep 10, 42, and 85 - Or really any time Liam leans in to talk to Jester, she leans in more often but whenever he does it's conspiratorially or when he's being extra earnest

Ep 42 - Jester is fixating on Astrid while in Darktow and says 'You're mysterious, Caleb, you know that?'

Ep 111 - Caleb is extoling the virtues of his friends that he does not possess, he says Jester has 'flair and creativity' but she rebuts saying she wants a new one because he took hers with his obvious skill designing the tower

Ep 82 - They are in the Happy Fun Ball and they are worried about going through the Dreadnought and arcane users getting sucked into the 'Mage's Bane', Jester interrupts Caduceus' request that he not go off by himself and says 'You have to promise, Caleb, you're not going to do that.'

Anyways, thank you @widojestsecretsanta for being the thing that finally got me to publish a fic about this damned couple

heyyyyyyy so in the malnourished fwhip explanation post you said you'd get back to the thing about gem and fwhip not liking that they got first pick during the famine and i fully agree with you. if it also you said you'd get back to it and you didn't and you're good at articulating things so I would like to hear you elaborate if you are willing

OH yeah. i had planned to get into that in the section where i talked about fwhip continuing to use the corrupted fertilizer because it works so well that it means his people are fed, but i didn’t elaborate much further than that. so i shall now!

(context for this can be found here, in case you missed that post!)

so as i said previously, when famine strikes the grimlands and the royal family have their food needs prioritized, this is something that fwhip and gem, despite both being very young, find awful. i think both of these kids have very strong senses of justice (cough because they’re both autistic cough), gem especially, since she’s the one being trained to be the next countess, so she’s a lot more worldly than fwhip at that point. fwhip is approaching this from a basic fairness standpoint- everyone needs to eat, it’s not fair that he and his family get priority. gem is approaching this based on her experience in other empires and her conversations with other to be emperors- this is not how a good ruler treats their people, a good ruler tries to put their people first always.

i think this manifests in a variety of different ways when they get older. for fwhip, this manifests in putting his people’s food needs above his own when it comes to the corrupted fertilizer. if the fertilizer was giving everybody else nightmares, he would’ve heard about it by now, so clearly it’s just him. that means the fertilizer is a net good, so it stays. i think fwhip is a weird and very distant ruler, one who thinks of himself as a little too equal with his people, and that can be good and bad. something like this, where he puts the people’s need for food above his own wants is (for everyone else) good, but it also means he doesn’t really register how much more important his actions are than anyone else’s. for someone else in the grimlands (or even for fwhip just a few years ago, when he was still the kid brother to the rising countess), blowing up your friend’s house might get you in trouble, but it’s not a big deal. for modern day fwhip, it’s literally an act of war. “peace is boring” is a very frightening attitude for a ruler to hold, and he holds it because he wasn’t properly trained to be count, he’s still very young, and he views himself and his people as pretty much the same when, unfortunately, they just aren’t.

for gem, i think what this does for her behavior doesn’t manifest for her a while. she ran away from the grimlands because she wanted to be a wizard, she wanted to be anything but countess, and i think she did fundamentally believe fwhip would do better than she could. so she becomes a wizard in a very insulated community, and then her instructor disappears and leaves the entire place in her care, and that freaks her out. yes, she was trained to have far greater responsibilities than this, there aren’t even any students for her to train yet, but being in charge scares her still. she so desperately wants to be a good ruler, a better one than anyone in her family line has been for a while, because she’s been up close and personal with bad ones. and i think for gem specifically that manifests in her wanting to be a just ruler. very few people are ever fully beyond redemption for gem. her pillager students just need to put their weapons down, and then they’re ready to learn! see, they weren’t really evil, just angry and armed. sausage has good left in him, even at his worst, she knows it. she just needs to draw it out of him, at any cost. scott didn’t mean to hurt her, he was just scared and she pushed him too far, that’s on her. i think the only person she sees as truly, 100% beyond redemption, who she never really changes her tune on, is xornoth. even the other emperors she isn’t a fan of i don’t think she thinks are irredeemably evil, they’re just assholes and she’s gonna be an asshole back (or she’s gonna let the other WRA members do it). (the only outlier to that is maybe joey. at some point after he gets the crown from xornoth, somebody says he’s most likely beyond saving, and that somebody might be gem but i can’t remember. if it is, i think she had simply run out of energy for second chances for him, and he’s not her responsibility anyways, so she feels less bad about doing it to him than say, a student of hers. if she isn’t the one who says that, disregard.) she is trying to extend justice, to extend second tries to everyone. arguably she even tries this with xornoth, when she tries to learn more about him when he first shows up, but he also made it very clear he had no intentions of improving, so.

TLDR: i think both roseblings are affronted at the fact that because they are nobility, they are inherently better treated in times of crisis. for fwhip, this is because he thinks it’s unfair, that he’s not inherently better than the people of the grimlands, so it’s unfair for him to be treated as such. for gem, she thinks it’s unjust. a good ruler, a just one, would put their people first. so when they get older, this manifests in a variety of ways. for fwhip, he views himself less as a count and more as just another citizen of the grimlands, a tinkerer with a penchant for explosions and not much more. this means in times of crisis he puts the needs of the many over the needs of the few, but it also means he doesn’t think about how much more weight his actions carry with the other empires than the actions of a regular person. for gem, this manifests as trying to extend justice, a helping hand, a second chance, to everyone she can. even at her detriment, there are very few people she believes are totally beyond saving, and she tries as best she can to save them.

lying on the ground. Caleb doesn't know that Lucien walked through the halls of the Solstryce academy and dreamed of getting to study there as a child--feeling embarrassed and ostracized at the thought that a tiefling kid from the Run like him would have never been welcomed there, would never have a place there. Lucien looking at the academy in awe and daring to dream of another life--until the pain of his blood hunter scars tears him right back to reality.

Lucien who is so very fascinated and charmed by magic, but who only ever experiences it as pain--

Drew up the Archmagister, one of Zephrine's two co-rulers in Tiamyra.

LORE BELOW:

Similar to how Zephrine rules the religious aspect of things in the Cathedral of Five Spires, Visaryn here rules the magic aspect, leading the Obsidian Spire. Together with the Sovereign(Raishi) and the Hierarch(Zephrine), they make up Tiamyra's rulers, collectively called the Triumverate.

Given that Tiamat rules at least partly over the domain of magic in Caerllon, mages are very highly respected within the nation's culture, and Visaryn here is no exception. The complex inner-workings and cutthroat politics of the Obsidian Spire has meant that Visaryn has had to be very cunning and resourceful to reach the top, and even moreso to remain there for as long as he has. He is both respected and feared, for good reason.

As a person he is both a brilliant and very serious man who doesn't suffer fools and has little time for those that interrupt his work, and even less time for those whose ambition exceeds their skill. He also isn't above turning someone into a potted plant should they draw his ire, which means most people aren't dumb enough to do so.

That said, if you earn his respect, he will do everything in his power(which is significant) to do right by you and is incredibly loyal once that loyalty has been earned.
