    We're not playing this week, right? I should have time to knock out some arts on Friday/Saturday.

    Realizing lately that I don't really trust or respect basically any of the moderators here. So, good luck with life, friends! Hit me up on Twitter @DesertLeviathan

    Yeah we're taking a breather while I work some stuff out.

  • Desert LeviathanDesert Leviathan Registered User regular
    Cool. Zephy's in the queue then, right after Rahab. If anyone else wants one, I'm feeling focused enough that I should probably be able to crank them all out without too much mental stuttering.

    @Dubh You want a Scrubbert art too, or already got a suitable bush critter image?

    I literally have a photo of desert sagebrush in shrubbert's portrait - it's pretty funny, but if you have enough focus spoons to spare that would be pretty cool

    thank you, Scott <3 let me know if you want ANY form of compensation, it feels weird getting free art

    Naaah, I art for fun. Involving money makes it weird for me. And it's not like I've finished any of the other Phase 1 character drawings I said I would, so I owe you one.

    there is still time to finish those

    A Hobgoblin, a Tortle, a Furbolg, and an Eladrin walk into a bar...

    the bartender breathes a sigh of relief until she recognizes the Furbolg

    It's my lunch break anyway, and I'm feeling in a scribblin' sort of mood. Has Zephy got any unique gear that you've got a look in mind for? Some kind of magic staff, right? Does she carry like a spell component pouch or any clothing?

    Have an extremely quick preliminary sketch. Feedback super welcome, this is just to give us a common starting point on what to adjust going forward.

    she has a staff of the woodlands, the thing probably looks more like a young tree ripped out of the ground and converted into a staff, plus a wooden shield on her other arm
    and she wears a fur and leather robe adorned with animal bits

    other gear worth consideration: a bag of holding, and a cloak of protection (likely to be made of something like fur or leather - maybe a wing from a large creature)

    the belt pouch is still a thing, but she keeps her spell components in her bag of holding just in case she loses access to her staff

    she also likes to paint a bandit stripe over her eyes, and looks sorta like a red-eared slider

    you should probably make that eye look more turtley

    but the fact that shrubbert resembles gary is making me laugh super hard

    edit: I should more explicitly say that I like the picture a bunch
    but it feels like Zephy is waggling her eyebrows at the fourth wall

    which is 100% what she would do

    so, are you all ready to NOT GAME today?

    I didn't even know that was a thing. Is it a layered shave?

    I dunno what the heck hair terms are. It's just shaved on both sides and you let the top grow out so you can do things with it? It's fun and good.

    One of these days I gotta learn more about hair and stuff, so I don't sound like a complete idiot when I go to get my hair did.

    Not today though, motherfuckers!

    it's like this on both sides - you can keep the remaining hair long or short, and style what you have left however you want

    additionally, it's a HUGE flag for queer women

    my current hair goals are partially inspired by this:

    I wanna grow so much hair. Mine isn't particularly cooperative but once it grows out it should have good waves+volume think? Or it will just end up being wicked curly, hard to tell.

  • DoobhDoobh She/Her, Ace Pan/Bisexual 8-) What's up, bootlickers?Registered User regular
    my hair stays pretty flat unless I style it

    which isn't hard per say, it's just that it takes a few minutes and sometimes I'm too lazy to do it

    Hopefully I'll be able to keep it up!

    you are also the GM, so technically you are always on time

    has Angus not met god before? that seems like shoddy work for a cleric.

    even for angus.

    St Cuthbert is normally more of a "hit the unbeliever with a big stick" kind of God, but has a practical stripe a mile wide. The pirate who raised him was the quartermaster and was a firm believer, if only in his own way. His foster father's slightly askewed beliefs took hold at an early age and awoke something in him. Angus never went through any official noviciate training, but he did hold services on ship and observed all the holy days. Shipboard life is all about pulling your share and a pirate's life isn't exactly safe or long, so a bit of religiosity goes hand in hand.

    Near as I can figure, one of Cuthbert's subordinate angels made a bit of a filing error and can't own up to it now. That or he convinced Cuthbert to try and start an outreach program for troubled youths.

  • DoobhDoobh She/Her, Ace Pan/Bisexual 8-) What's up, bootlickers?Registered User regular
    I feel like St. Cuthbert has a pretty simple ideology to understand

    and Angus is a wrinkle in that, for better or worse
