So there were a few likes about my post on DnD... meaning you get to know about our dumb shenanigans and my weird children
Starting with... the current campaign and the band of misfits that make up our party !
Rani Mankana (my OC)
Non-binary, They/She/He, 20 yo Human Ranger, Chaotic Neutral ESTP 7w8 8w9 4w5
Feral gremlin, bread-winner & problem child all at once
- Do whatever they want - Animals are better than humans - Left their village with absolutely no plan and have been fighting for 2 months with glorified gardening tools - Will try to punch you if you get in the way of their fun, but will also kill people who are being an ass to you - Knows nothing but constantly asking questions - Will take 98% of what you say literally - When people wallow & mope about not knowing what to do next, they scream until you get up and *try* something - Has known someone for 1 day and will decide that they're *theirs* now bc they're interesting - Main goal : catch them all (aka becoming friends with enough animals to create a travelling zoo) - Will die for you. Actually no, they have too much stuff to do & see to die so, will most likely kill for you
Lysora Dul'rik
Cis Man, He, ~28 yo Human Fighter/Warlock, Neutral Good ENFJ 3w2 7w6 1w2
Polite truth-seeker, smiling through the pain 7d/7
- Seems well-adjusted, actually dying inside - Constantly gets his worldview upturned by shocking revelations - Noble education & background, notably good at politics & social niceties - Great sense of responsabilities when it comes to protecting the party. TOO great, chill not everything is your fault - Likes to have some fun and get people together - Will die if you don't like him - Flirting is a great therapy method - Tendency to obsess over knowledge, not allowed to stay in a library unsupervised anymore - Very social, will ask for a random passerby name if he asked them a question. - Will die for you. But too busy to die for himself.
Ayla Jaym
Cis Woman, She, Lesbian, 25 yo Human-Werewolf Warlock/Barbarian, Loyal Good INFP 6w7 4w3 1w2
Lesbian disaster, social butterfly but having a hard time rn
- How nearly killing your gf affects your mental health : the story - "When I said I wanted a life like in the books I meant a fun heroic tale with a happy ending, not a 1000-pages tragedy." - Weapons nerd, yield a magic blue axe 3x her size - Any convo will end up with you questioning the meaning of your existence even though she just wanted to ask if you had a sister - Friends good and women pretty. - Born into the trading city of Offonsa where the only law is "don't steal" : somehow got out with a much more refined moral compass (to Rani's despair) - The plot can't catch up if I just avoid it - Will project her issues onto you so bad, you're gonna hope to never be on watch duty with her again - Will probably kill you on a full moon, but swears she didn't mean to
Balthazar Glowbrook
Cis Man, He, 38 yo Half-Orc Bloodhunter, True Neutral ISTP 9w1 5w6 4w3
The edgy grandpa, likely to explode at any given time bc of his experiments
- Thought that living alone in a cave for 10 years was a perfectly reasonable answer to being disappointed in humanity - And only left it when some random woman came find him only to get murdered during the night - Very knowledgeable, very smart but the party has only 1 braincell to share and it's usually Rani's - Awkwardness 100/10, will ramble and bury himself in the ground if left alone, do not trust with diplomatic lies - "Ayla is precious and I'd protect her with my life". Ayla transforms into a werewolf. Balthazar who's part of an organization tasked with killing werewolves : *surprised pikachu face* - Looks responsible. If left alone for more than 5 minutes, will create dubious alchemy potions and end up with chicken wings. - Looks like he could kill you but actually wouldn't. - B.O.O.K.S
Neldëaurë Ramëldis
Cis Man, He, 49 yo (16) Elf Wizard, Neutral Good INTP 6w5 9w1 2w1
The competent nerd, who feels the need to apologize for his very existence
- NEEEEERD - Nerd who collects the other nerds and gets shipped with all of them - "Hey you could pour soup in my lap and I'll probably apologize to you." - Constantly trying to make himself useful - Don't ever mention magical concepts if you're not ready to answer EVERY SINGLE ONE of his questions. He WILL ask you about the impact on portal on the links between plans. - Master at creating new ways to use his spells - The only one with a plan, takes everything in strides - "Okay give me 1 night and I'll uproot my entire life to join you and your dubious organization" - Even though he was part of a much more legal, legit & international organization - Will die if you so much as push him
i cant play horror games man fuck what if i turn the corner and see a thing or something
The cast is too big help I'm dying
I put Summer in there just bc I think team STRQ is very sexy *holds them gently* i just think they're neat
Honestly I agree with everything about this. Also because from what little we saw of him I think the original Ozma is more akin to a well-menaning himbo than a gentle & wise professor 👀
Finals are done, so Ozpin headcanon time!
Ozpin is one of the most eloquent and soft-spoken of all the reincarnations; and while there is more than one reason for it, this trait mostly stems from Ozpin becoming Beacon's headmaster so young.
Becoming the youngest headmaster put him in a position of power over not only the students barely younger than himself, but gave him political power with a seat on the council with people who were most likely older elected politicians. For the sake of his students- many who would view any act of authority from him with skepticism due to the small age gap- he had to learn how to present himself as someone approachable without making himself seem like a pushover to be challenged. And as a politician, Ozpin similarly had to show his own competence as a politician- to make sure the remaining council members didn't try to walk all over him- while making sure he didn't come off as too overpowering since he wasn't elected to his seat like the others were.
The answer to this was to learn how to use words to his fullest advantage. That means not only knowing the words to say, but how to say them. Ozpin quickly mastered how to use tone, body language, pitch, and other factors to help his words carry weight without them landing like an attack on others.
He also quickly learned how to use this skill guide people's thinking- which is fantastic for when he is encouraging students to think in new ways, as well as deflecting questions or conclusions from people who want to know a little too much ;P
The funniest thing about the Marquis Machina identity reveal is that it recontextualizes the shoes in her current outfit from "quirky Mochijun design choice" to "Francis Varney is a Japanophile."
Ye olde weeabeau.
everything’s sad right now so here’s a screenshot redraw of what is probably the most adorable scene in the entirety RWBY so far
Ozpin wants to help, really, it's just that their experience with opening up consists of repeatedly being killed, and they never went to therapy either
Ozpin: Don’t worry Oscar, I’ll always be here to help you when you’re in need
Oscar: Okay, I really need your help with my emotions
Ozpin who is terrible with emotions: Um… clean your room
Oscar: God dammit, you never help me ever!
lgjrakh BEING SYNTHETIC IS SO HARD THO like wtf
Yes I will elaborate. I just CAN'T give my opinion on anything without rambling for more than 10 min
