#wildermyth campaign

[glitchi-art]

In our latest Wildermyth campaign we lost @skykid-nadir 's character Caya. She went out with a bang, saving our party from certain death. May your sacrifice be the subject of many songs, and your memory cherished for generations Also Shenny (@eclipsefoxart) and Levee (@radio-mann) got together yaay

But they were not the only ones to have fallen in love...

(featuring @madam-morbid 's Astara, @skykid-nadir 's Jim, Shenny's daughter - Garbin Fin and my wolfhead hunter, Cammy Stornbin)

As Alfyn and Therion were travelling to Scholarius' wizard tower, I got the opportunity to make Therion either form a friendship or a rivalry with Darius. :3

We rivalling! >:D

Why would that be? Hm... I wonder... :3

*dramatic rivalry start screen!* (I'm not sure why I didn't get this for the romance but I did for the rivalry. Interesting.)

Back in the tower, Darius decides he wants OUT of there monster or no, so he grabs a weapon...

...and finds out that he has magical potential of which he was until then unaware! Go Scholarius!

After fighting through the enemies blocking his way to the door, he left the tower, only to find Alfyn and Therion had just made it there to rescue him. Or... well...

...you know, I'm not sure whether they were coming here to rescue him or just hang out, but our group is now united (and debatably getting along but oh well, they're stuck together for this campaign because we said so).

Alfyn, who seems the best equipped to lead out of the three of them, decides to strategise about going back into the tower to take out the rest of the monsters.

...don't look at the frying pan. It's his STRATEGY frying pan, it helps come up with plans. The frying plan, if you will.

...of course, Therion seems to have a plan already anyway so they just ended up going with the direct approach (no matter how sceptical Alfyn and Darius seem).

With a frying plan, a bow, and Darius' newfound aptitude for magic, the three of them managed to get rid of the rest of the monsters in the tower with ease. It was then that they realised... they're stuck together and they might as well think of a name for their little group--

--guys what are you talking about. N O. I ended up naming my group myself -- after some suggestions about apples from friends which spontaneously morphed into suggestions about Applins, the group became known as The Applin Company.

Inseparable, the text says. These three, inseparable. Welp, GOOD LUCK, GUYS. XD

:3

By the way, attention all DND nerds without a campaign!

You should totally get Wildermyth and I will post screenshots why as I further spiral into hyperfixation.

It's really good though and there are free mods.

Sometimes when you're playing Wildermyth, you wind up creating characters from other games for fun. And when you do that, the things that happen in-story can be very fitting, or very unfitting.

Case in point for my most recent playthrough with Genshin characters from Fontaine. Furina the Warrior started out as rivals with Hunter Lyney, then she saved them from being kidnapped and sold into slavery and they fell in love before having a daughter. I named her Focalors.

Neuvillette communed with a spirit and got pretty blue streaks in his hair, which was fitting. He was also my only mystic.

Warrior Navia became rivals with Hunter Lynette for some reason, and also lit a candle in remembrance for someone she loved who died, which was fitting.

Warrior Clorinde is on her way to becoming a thunder goddess, which I like, and also is in love with Focalors for some reason. Probably because Navia was too old for her? But at least it's still gay.

We also saved the world from flooding, and Furina broke a curse that had been placed on her since childhood, which is lovely.

Can't wait for my next playthrough, which will involve Mondstat and Morthagi!

some pics from my first two campaigns in wildermyth. i haven't finished the second yet, but my starters for that one were danielle, miram, and stephanie. kane and kennedy got together in my first campaign lmfaooo true to ts2 kane's wants

[six-improbable-things]

This seems reasonable, until you find out that every single second of those 11.1 hours was played all within one day. (24 hours.) I started last night at 11, played until 3am, was in bed until 9, played again from 11-2, watched critical role, and then played more Wildermyth from 7-11. And now I need to sleep. I got less than 3 hours of actual sleep last night, and I'm fucking tired.

Oh, a heads up for my streamsy folks -- I'm thinking I might do another New Year's Eve stream now that I've got things (mostly) resituated on the computar.

Anywhere Bow

Magic Artifact Weapon for Dungeons & Dragons 5e

We here at Cloaks & Capes are BIG fans of the @wildermyth-blog game, and following its recent DLC Omenroad, and the official wrapping of the game, we wanted to give it homage.

So we took Elthiar's Bow, the Anywhere Bow, and made it into a Vestige of Divergence for 5th edition. We hope you like it, it took some work to make all the mechanics and rules feel good, and fit them on the card!

If you use this in your campaign, we would love to hear how it went! Also, go buy Wildermyth on Steam. :)

Anywhere Bow

Weapon (any bow or crossbow), artifact (requires attunement)

“This mythical weapon has a history shrouded in mystery. Even the most learned wizards are baffled by the magic it holds and its ability to fuse the consciousness of the wielder to ordinary items. The structure of the weapon seems naturally occuring and not something made by the hands of mortals.”

Interfusion. Using a bonus action, you can use the magic of this artifact to interfuse with an object that you can see within 30 feet (trees, rocks, furniture, etc.) In order to interfuse with something it must be considered a small, medium, or large object, that isn’t being worn or carried. If an object is destroyed or picked up, the interfusion ends. Interfusion lasts for one minute, unless you dismiss it as a free action. If you move more than 30 feet away from an interfused object, the effect ends.

Dormant

You gain a +1 bonus to attack and damage rolls made with this magic weapon, and you can interfuse with one object.

When you hit with a ranged attack using this weapon, your interfused objects launch a magical arrow at your target if it is within 60 feet of them, dealing 1d6 force damage. You can only trigger this effect once per round.

Deep Interfusion. As an action, you can interfuse with an object you can see within 60 feet and concentrate on it for 10 minutes. You can see and hear through this object with your own senses. During this time you are unable to use those senses with your body.

Awakened

You gain a +2 bonus to attack and damage rolls made with this magic weapon, and you can interfuse with two objects.

You can make your ranged attacks through interfused objects using your attack and damage bonuses. Attacking through an object deals force damage. The object making the attack does not deal its additional damage, but other interfused objects do. As long as the object has line of sight on your target, you do not need to be able to see it.

Exalted

You gain a +3 bonus to attack and damage rolls made with this magic weapon, and you can interfuse with three objects.

Traversal. You can use a bonus action to teleport to an interfused object, appearing in an empty space next to it. You can do this a number of times equal to your proficiency bonus, regaining expended uses after a long rest.

Open Mind. While interfused with an object you can use an action to send out a pulse of energy from it. Every creature within 60 feet of the object must make a DC 18 Charisma saving throw, or you learn its location. The creatures do not sense this effect. This property can't be used again until you finish a long rest.

MORTHAGI ARDOR STAR BLOSSOM EGO CARD 🔥🔥🌟🦋

Morthagi is my friend’s PC from our Pathfinder x Project Moon campaign set in The City! He normally looks like that (bone automaton creature) so don’t worry about it.

Ardor Star Blossom EGO stat block!

Alts plus refs plus more info below the cut!

I feel like this is important to know but the Ardor Blossom Moth is responsible for the original destruction of Morthagi’s human body so that’s why he looks like that. Anyways after we defeated it we thought it most appropriate that Morthagi gets the EGO gear from the Big Bad in his backstory! :D

Morthagi (wildermyth) as og character reference, and ardor star moth from the limbus company ego card. Image all the way to the right is the overdrive stats for the same EGO. All of the stat sheets are homebrew btw :]

[glitchi-art]

Wildermyth sheanigans featuring @eclipsefoxart 's Shenny Kin and @radio-mann 's Levee Bowers. Trauma sure is fun!

[mxanigel]

things I've done today instead of returning to my still-incomplete first Veilguard run:

dishes

laundry

cooking

take screenshots to create my own Wine Map for Potion Craft because the ones I found online weren't cutting it

complete the final chapter of Potion Craft

get waaaaaay too invested in the randomly-generated heroes I was given for my first Wildermyth campaign

tbh I'm hesitating to finish DATV because of the bits of discourse that have crossed my dash

but it's also fun to just play a game that's not part of a series and do whatever I feel like doing in it (within the limits of my capabilities, lol)

[gascoignes-homewrecker]

Wildermyth campaign fun times! Bim was originally our narrator but ended up joining in as well and ...things quickly got weird.

Personal space plz bro.

@heraldofcrow makes a surprise cameo to ... Grant Bim wings? Crow, why did you give the squid wings?!

Aaaaand now there are two of them! Bim finds his doppelganger and the two of them may or may not have pulled a switcheroo on us 👀 I'll post highlights (and memes) whenever we manage to return and finish the campaign up!

So I started playing Wildermyth again with my friends! :D But here's the thing -- I'm making a legacy of Octopath characters and seeing what happens to them if I stick them in the Wildermyth world. Thusly, I will be calling it Wilderpath. :3 This may mean I'm posting a lot of this, so the tag I'm going to use is #saarovar wilderpathing (for easier finding of it, or if you don't want to see it). But it's going to be a lot of screenshots of anything I find cute or funny as I play the Octopeople in the Wildermyth campaigns, if you're interested! :D

[pizzleyanked]

took me a while, but here's some thoughts on wildermyth (dev. worldwalker games, 2019). i've gone at length about this game, so i won't say much here. in short, i adore this game and wholeheartedly recommend it.

wildermyth is a procedurally generated tactical rpg. although that label doesn't fully translate what this game does. you create characters or let the game generate them, and off they go on procedurally generated campaigns, or campaigns that were handcrafted by the developers. although each campaign will see your heroes take up arms as a warrior, hunter, or mystic. there is an overworld in which the party explores and finds enemy bastions or their next objectives. sometimes, they may need to carve passages and secure villages, which takes time. campaigns are organized into chapters, in between each there will be a timeskip which can vary from a season to a decade. as time passes, heroes age (which has an effect on their abilities, as they can become slower, or they can even retire between chapters) and threats advance. at times, enemies can launch an incursion that lays waste to villages. that's the bigger picture.

ultimately wildermyth is a game about the quiet moments and the passage of time. more than any other game i've played, wildermyth is concerned about what the life of adventuring does to a hero. character creation is the starting point--you release a hero into the world with specific quirks and a certain appearance, but their adventures will change them. they may get quests related to their specific quirks. they may lose limbs. they may be transformed by mystical forces, which advance as time goes and give them new skills at the cost of, per example, being unable to wield weapons. they may become close friends with an ally, or rivals, or maybe they can find a lover. they may also be defeated in battle, and let their death give a boon to their companions.

when each campaign is over, any hero can be added to your legacy and, provided they did not die, they can be promoted in order to retain more skills when you next encounter them in a future campaign. the legacy mechanic is how the game fully becomes a myth maker. in one tale your hero fought morthagi, drauven in another; in one they may have met their untimely end. sometimes these stories may contradict each other, but that is the beauty of myth. there is always another tale to add to a hero's myth.

lastly, the game looks and sounds gorgeous, although i did mod the appearance of my heroes and added armor mods. it runs well on the steam deck, which is where i've been playing.

I have the bad habit of starting and finishing Wildermyth Omenroad runs all in one sitting... It usually takes me like, 2 hours, which isn't too bad, but I'm always like "oh, I'll stop after this next encounter" and then next thing I know I've finished the run.

Thess vs TLOVM S3, Ep 4

It's still mostly been Wildermyth today, but of course yesterday was the day the next few episodes of TLOVM dropped. So here we go with Ep 4, still rationing episodes so there's not too long to wait between drops.

C'mon, Pike. get it togeth-- oh. Oooooooh. This ... is a bad bad thing. Especially since I read the episode teasers and for someone who needs to treat her soul as precious ... using it as a bargaining chip in a card game feels like not the best call.

I know that Matt's voice is in that chorus of damned souls ... but I'm pretty sure at least some of the others are in there too.

...So do we know when the S3 soundtrack is going to drop? I looked it up on Spotify but there was a random playlist under that name so either they're holding that name for the time being or someone was an absolute asshole. Anyway, point is, that one belongs right up there with "Mighty Scanlan, riiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiise!" as something that just needs to randomly turn up on my Liked Songs playlist-- Um. What is Keyleth supposed to be, exactly?

Closest Google gives me is a wendigo. I doubt they looked all that closely, though - they just needed something creepy-looking with antlers, because Keyleth always has antlers.

Okay, dunno what's calling for Pike at this point but it ain't good.

"Lots of people have told me to come here". Oh, Grog, never change.

Oh, Keyleth, EWWWWWWWW.

The second-hand embarrassment is strooooong.

Wait. Is Zerxus the one calling Pike?!?

Oh, Vax. Oh, Vax, you are going to look back on that and ask Percy to return that punch in the face you gave him after the Deathwalker's Ward Incident because you have earned it.

Vex, Percy, you two are still so adorable.

Oh. Oh Vorugal, you have no idea who you pissed off.

Pike. Pike NO. ...Oh, honey...

So it is Zerxus calling to Pike.

Why. Did. You. Not. Keep. FLYING?!?

Ah, I was right! Now. Luis Carazo. Who he? Well, he was in Calamity, that's a start. Candela Obscura ... EXU as Zerxus himself, so I no longer feel bad about spoilers because any of you who watched EXU probably already knew from the voice ... clearly a WoD fan... Cool. Moving on.

Ah. J'mon Sa Ord not always the honest type.

Oh. Oh, she is using her soul as a precious thing. If only an exquisite offer would get them the Plate, that's exactly how she's treating her soul.

Zerxus, I know you're a devil and everything, but you are also, for all your manners and not immediately going to the murder, an asshole.

Okay, maybe I shouldn't have read what happened in EXU, but ... that explains a lot. He's looking for redemption and ... I wonder if he thinks she can really give it to him. And if she really can, whatever he believes she can or not.

Pike, the fuck?!?

Pike, the fuck?!?

PIKE, FOR PITY'S SAKE; ASK HIM SOMETHING NOT ABOUT THE CARDS!

THANK YOU.

Aaaaand they're using the art style of the EXU opening credits.

Took you long enough, Pike.

And there's his tell.

YEEEEEENK! ...He's not losing graciously, is he.

Noooooooope. Though I do wonder whether, when he says "His ascension is at hand, we are of his blood", he means Thordak through the gem in his chest or ... possibly the Whispered One. Vox Machina have been a barrier to the plans of both parties, after all, and the Whispered One has ... ambitions.

Huh. Different simplified art style in the end credits. Neat.

That's a cliffhanger I can leave it on, definitely. I didn't remember the details of the whole trip to the hells (partly because it was seriously de-emphasised in the campaign and mostly I remember Vex buying a couple of aasimar children to free them from slavery, which I think bumped her to either Chaotic Good or Neutral Good from True Neutral but I'm not entirely sure; set the stage for her being a champion of the Dawnfather, anyway), but those details were obviously changed to fit Zerxus into it anyway, as well as weaving it into how Yenk ends up beating on Vorugal, so works for me. Honestly, I think the way they're reorganising the campaign to fit a shorter episodic structure (both shorter in terms of number of episodes and length of the episodes themselves) with the addition of stuff from other campaigns works remarkably well.

So more of that in a couple of days, and for now ... decisions about dinner. I am still fucking tired, and don't feel like cooking. *whine*
