17. How does your OC sabotage themselves?

Mostly with lies.  He doesn’t trust easily, especially non-kenku, and combined with the fact that he doesn’t have a great sense of self-worth (due to his upbringing among the Cosa), he lies to make himself seem more useful.  He hides things, lies, or tells half truths out of fear of rejection.

He also is, at least on a surface level, very greedy.  If there’s a chance for treasure or money enough that he feels it outweighs the risks, he’ll go for it.

And finally, he’s constantly stressed.  So on a lesser level he self-sabotages a lot with stress relief.  Drinking, sleeping around, and the like.

Second set is for leftfoot, my brand spanking new kobold wizard.

♥ (10) What is your OC’s favorite big way to show their love?It would probably be doing readings for them. Divination is an integral part of who Leftfoot is as a wizard, and it's a deeply personal act for her. While she will occasionally cast for the group, doing readings for a singular person is not something she feels comfortable with unless they're truely special to her.

♥ (17) Could your OC fall in love with someone they’ve never met in person?considering a lot of Leftfoot's academic interactions have never been face to face, I can see her easily falling for someone she's never met in person. She has a few penpals she harbors fond feelings for, because to them, she is simply /Zulf’urac, candlekeep scholar/ and not Leftfoot the Kobold.

♥ (18) Does your OC have a “type”?...not smarter than her. She's a bit egotistical in the intelligence department, so honestly, she's found herself getting crushes on the absolute dumbasses in Candlekeep. Dumb and sweet to her are a pair of traits that will usually end up in confused feelings for the kobold.  

Figure'd since you sent two, I'd do one set for rana, and one set for Leftfoot. Share the love a bit.

♥ (08) What is your OC’s dream marriage proposal?Something Public and honestly a surprise for her, tho not super over the top. She is a simple girl after all.She's very young and honestly her head is very much in the clouds when it comes to romance, but she wants to be swept off her feet in front of people.

♥ (10) What is your OC’s favorite big way to show their love?When Rana cares about someone, the biggest way she can show them is by making them her everything. She loves to dote on someone she cares about, listening to them and doing everything she can to make them the most important person in her eyes.

♥ (14) Does your OC have any romantic traditions?Not really? She's young and she really hasn't been in any actual romances, but I can see her totally being a love note kinda person, and leaving them sprinkled around for her partner.

That would be Ashscale!

6) What is the most romantic thing that has been done for your OC?

This probably happened back when Ashscale was still dating Cinderwind (another salamander and fellow bladesmith). Cinderwind took Ashscale out on a fancy date where the two of them watched a fire dance performance, then they had a romantic dinner. After that the two took a nice long walk through a magma flow park. Cinderwind took Ashscale to her favorite spot in the park and gifted Ashscale a really fancy smith’s hammer she’d smithed herself just for Ashscale. Even after the two (amicably) broke up Ashscale still has and still uses that hammer.

11) What do others love most about your OC?

They love her for the sheer amount of love, passion and creativity she puts into each and every blade she’s ever made. It’s like she’s put a piece of her soul into making them.

They also love her for her kindness towards others, her dedication to her clan and to her friends, her selflessness, and her using her fire powers to bring warmth and love to everyone around her. 

22) How often does your OC read romantic literature?

Ashscale doesn’t read romantic literature very often, but not because she doesn’t like it. She likes them quite a bit! But she’s often a bit too focused on her bladesmithing career to sit down, relax, and cuddle up to a good book.

The times she does get in a mood to indulge in somethin’ romantic she’ll end up reading an entire romance novel in a day.

She would never admit to it but she also likes reading books that are basically the salamander equivalent to the lusty argonian maid.

28) What is something unconventional that your OC thinks is romantic?

An unconventional thing she’d probably find romantic is if someone gave her ore or chunks of metal as a gift, especially if it was rare or good quality metal.

2. Your favorite character that someone else has played.

One of my favorites of @color-spray is Dr. Verity Grey! She’s a wonderfully unnerving doctor.

And her little spider automaton Joy is adorable.

8. Your favorite fight/encounter.

One of my favorites was actually a series of encounters/fights. In a campaign I was in, Seeking Fortune, the party was trying to find out the source of a plague afflicting the town of Riket. Our initial leads lead us to the sewers where we fought a wererat.

And that’s where things got interesting.

Unknown to the rest of the party, the ranger was bitten by the wererat and failed his save to not contract lycanthrophy. And after the fight we figured out that the sickness affecting a large number of people in the town was lycanthropy...even worse we figured out that night was a full moon night

Cue the whole party booking it as fast as possible to the church where all the sick were being held. We had to warn the priests in time! The only thing we could think to do to contain all the soon-to-be-newly transformed wererats was lock them inside the church.

We just barely succeed at doing that before the full moon. But then...that’s when we found out our friend Tarren was also one of the afflicted.

And he was out on the steps of the church, with the rest of us.

Then we had to fight and subdue him as well as keep him from harming anyone. We knew he’d be devastated if he actually seriously hurt anyone, or worse, killed someone (Tarren is a sweet boy who wouldn’t harm a fly). We manage to hurt him enough to knock him out, tied him up, and put him in the town jail for the rest of the night.

The next morning we saw the level of devastation inside the church. While it held for that night, the church could not sustain a second night like that.

And...a number of the sick got trampled to death.

The whole reveal of what the plague actually was, the horror of realizing that night was the full moon and then fighting one of our own was one of the most intense things I’ve experienced in a game!

19. Do you or your party have any dice superstitions?

One superstition is that it’s bad luck to roll multiple nat 20′s when testing the dice macros in roll20.

it’s bad luck because all of the high rolls get “used up” during testing, and then we’re left with rolling low during actual game play xD
