Belkar continues to be MVP. Character development is more powerful than any class feature.
Except Action Surge, of course.

Re: OOTS #1256 - The Discussion Thread
And hopefully this puts an end to all the debates about Serini's motivations. While I wouldn't say she was exactly correct, the lack of even factoring in the gods makes perfect sense for her.

Re: OOTS #1256 - The Discussion Thread
There may be those who would shame you for failing to resist 11 puppy dog eyes, but I stand not among them
O Chul is hilarious when he wants to be.
Also, score one for Belkar realizing what sort of arguments would sway a bitter old halfling rogue. Which had the advantage of being true. The gods really do more or less view mortals as a food source.
The Elan / Sunny friendship is amazing and I wish to see more of it. Also, I want to see an extended dialogue between Sunny and Greyview. The amount of "You can't seriously believe that!' would be epic, in both directions.This ... is my signature finishing move!

“Every part of this is hideously complicated.” Best line! Though the one about eleven puppy eyes comes close.

The new art style is worth it just for Sunny's teeth. They wouldn't have looked nearly as cool in the old style.

I did not think it would be so easy to make an [eye-creature-trademarked] look so... well, adorable. Kudos.

Re: OOTS #1256 - The Discussion Thread
Y’know I actually kinda expected Belkar to be the MVP here. He’s always been good at putting it in a way that cuts through all the surrounding stuff.
Also, I am not surprised one bit that Elan is getting along with Sunny well, and I don’t think I’m the only one.Cool elan Illithid Slayer by linkele.

Haley doesn’t seem to happy about Elan spending so much time with Sunny though.

Re: OOTS #1256 - The Discussion Thread
Belkar being the one to talk some sense into them... Yup, that works for me. Out of everyone in the party, his world view would be the closest.
Also Elan and Sunny, that's the optimistic buddy dynamic I'm here for

Belkar did a thing! And it helped! Neat. Now let’s dig through all of these magical items our new ally is nice enough to share.

Re: OOTS #1256 - The Discussion Thread
Great chaotic empathy check by Belkar there.
I almost missed Lien's "Jump the shark" reference.
Given the setting, I'd have additional questions about Sunny's "Cool dead bug". Bug sized or creature sized? Dead or "dead"? Does it have ice properties? "Bug" as in an arthropod or as in bugbear/bugaboo/bogeyman?The thing is the Azurites don't use a single color; they use a single hue. The use light blue, dark blue, black, white, glossy blue, off-white with a bluish tint. They sky's the limit, as long as it's blue.

Re: OOTS #1256 - The Discussion Thread
Belkar's argument is remarkably like some philosophy my daughter is reading about in school. He's deeper than we think . . .
