8 months ago my brother told me his girlfriend would be playing in a pathfinder campaign and wanted my help in building her character. I readily accepted.
she told me his name was John Stone! a warrior who followed the mountain god Dwayne (pronounced Dwan-yay) (you can probably see where this is going)
I told her about the Oread race (rock people), we made him a warpriest (strength and charm domains) we gave him a pickaxe named “doom” and a warhammer dubbed “the tooth fairy”.
Dwayne’s rock: John Stone, was ready.
I received regular updates on John Stone’s progress and how interestingly none of the other players had caught on to the inspiration for this wonderful character despite other clues.
she brought with her to every session a bag of pebbles laying one on the table every time “rock” was mentioned.
when asked what her characters physique was like she said “like Maui from Moana” and the whole table sang “you’re welcome”
a player asked who her favourite wrestler was, she replied “the rock”
while trying to guess her deities name one person suggested “Dwayne”
she gained a pair of kunai she dubbed “pain and gain”
she took ranks in cooking so people could smell what the rock was cooking
and the cherry on the cake was when the group decided to dress as their characters and she showed up in blue jeans, a black turtleneck with a gold chain… and a bumbag.
and yet STILL no one clicked.
until recently, when all the red string fell into place and someone uttered the words she’d been waiting 8 months to hear
“are you just Dwayne the rock Johnson?”
