hello! i've been thinking a lot about a character i'm going to be playing in an upcoming campaign this summer!

her name is sinead o'shea, and she's a small-time thief at the bottom rung of her guild.

she was entirely beguiled by dashing rogue julian, and clung to his side. he was one of the only people ever to show her affection, and so her devotion to him was unmatched.

one evening, she smiled and wrung her hands and told julian that she was pregnant.

he tousled her hair and kissed her and put her straight to bed.

next morning, her life savings were gone, the guild's treasury had been robbed, and julian was nowhere to be found.

she was despondent. the guild blamed her for letting him close enough to plan the heist, and wouldn't have supported her even if they'd been able to.

in a desperate bid to turn her life around, she begged a local locksmith to take her on as an apprentice. he refused--what reputable businessman would want to take in a scruffy pregnant cutpurse?

there was nothing else for it. the guild had put her out. she was destitute.

she was sick and tired of moping.

sinead resolved to find julian, to take back what he had stolen from her and from the guild. to force him to be accountable for what he'd done.

and that's exactly what she'd do.

i drew a picture of her; images under a cut because they are HUGE

last night was really fantastic--i had so much fun!

i went to my last session of my d&d campaign, and i was really excited to see what would happen. and i wasn't disappointed at all (because my dm is wonderful and has never once let me down)! we took down the big boss by working collaboratively to toss him into a magical trash can made of swords. i'm particularly proud of myself and my boy cyril, as he's the one who cast the trash can (blade barrier).

we all did epilogues afterward. cyril caught the first ship to his home city and, with the help of most of his friends (the one of them got pressed into service for a demon after making a bad bargain) dug up his dead husband and resurrected him, which had been the goal all along. and then we spent a million years talking about their found family--how they have dinner parties all the time, and how cyril and his husband adopted some children, and their shenanigans with all of their Weird Aunts And Uncles. including the one who serves the demon now--he pops in from a few planes over to attend christmases and birthdays.

and then people started going to bed, but my dm, my boyfriend, and i stayed up late laughing uncontrollably about the stupidest things. and it was nice.

and i suppose it's a little sappy but all of this means a lot to me. i didn't really have any friends my first couple years of college--not anybody i really, honestly liked, or if i did, i didn't get to hang out with them on a regular basis. but now i have a nice group of buds that i can play games with, or just enjoy talking to.

and that's great.

 (frantic kazooing)

it's my last session in this campaign! i'm so excited to see how it'll turn out... my dm is sleep-deprived, just chugged a mountain dew, and has been snickering ominously all evening.

so tonight's gonna be just peachy

here's a longer profile of my precious d&d 5e character, cyril inkblot. i had a lot of fun writing this up--almost as much as i do playing this dumb boy.

i'm off to go play some d&d with a few of my friends! this is my first campaign and i'm having lots of fun! right now our party is trying to inoculate an entire town against a virulent magical disease!

my character's name is cyril, he's a human cleric. he just made level 15, i'm so proud of my strong baby. his thing is that he's a life insurance salesman trying to hawk insurance to adventurers who keep getting themselves into dangerous situations. he got the job after his husband died, and with no life insurance cyril lost everything. he's got... what i would call a minor in necromancy, and he just learned the spell that can bring his beloved husband back! i'm so proud of him, as soon as he wraps up his business he's going straight home to dig that sweet boy up!
