Hey guys,
So I've had to quit my gaming group because of too much RL drama, but the DM and I agreed that I could keep playing, but just without a group. We are running my "sessions" parallel to the actual group, so just in case I end up going back, it'll be easier. My problem at the moment is that I'm stuck and need some advice on what to do next. I have several possibilities in mind, but I can't think of everything that could go wrong.
Here's a bit of back story. My char's soul was split into two, a good side and an evil side (the good side is my original character). A demon lord, bent on the destruction of the world, got ahold of my char, and released the evil side, sending the good side to a type of slumber for 10 yrs. The good side finally wakes up, and finds herself married to a vampire, queen of a nation, everyone terrified of her, and above all else, no memories of the past 10 years.
My actions thus far have included faking an illness to get a healer to talk to her privately about the events that have gone on in the past 10 years, and the tried avoidance of her husband, the king. She has bluffed her way through the obsticle of her husband, but she can't keep that up very long, considering the fact that she was once a healer and took an oath to never harm anyone. Her evil side not only killed a lot of people, but killed her own brother, his wife and unborn child.
The only choices I can come up with are as follows:
1. She can run away either to:
-resistance camps, where i'm sure her welcome would be less than warm...
-some other part of the land where she would hide
2. Kill the King and rule the country, but I don't think the people would go for that...
3. Live her life in fear, deception and avoidance at the palace until the group does something, which could be never knowing this group. There is also the fact that the King could find out that she isn't what she was and renew the ritual that brought out the evil side.
So I'm at a loss as to what to do. I don't want to abandon the country, since she is the last of the royal family since her brother died. But I don't want the chance to turn evil again. I can only do so much avoiding and bluffing, the dice have a habit of favoring me for a while before they turn on me (there really is no middle ground with me and the dice...). So any suggestions or advice? I am favoring one option more than the others, but advice would be great.
(Btw, the DM and I sort of agreed to this "slumber" thing. I couldn't be there a couple of sessions and so the DM came up with this so he wouldn't have to play my char. Also, the whole group ended up dying except for me, and are starting with new characters 10yrs later in the game. And I really wanted to continue with this char, so yea...)
