Does anyone know if there has been any word from the guy who played the headmaster last night?
>>
>>46876988
Nope but he will probably be on later in the day we need patience.
>>
Monitoring thread. Whenever anything like this crops up I always seem to miss the conclusion.

Hope he enjoyed his milfs.

Post the rest?

>>46876988
Why don't we just discus tactics he can use against the BBEG till he gets here anons?
>>
>>46879415
Well the DM can't let them win that easily but I do think the Death Knight should have been weakened more by the OP's attacks so he'd have to withdraw and so the party could reunite and hunt him down.
>>
>>46879666
I wouldn't bother, judging by the GM it will be decided by *insert plot device here*
>>
>>46879705
I understand the BBEG has to be tough, and I'm all for a challenging fight and friends(and my character)dying. However, I think the DM might of went overboard by making the Death/Daddy Knight too powerful (can only be killed by a god, what is that bullshit?). I believe that if it bleeds, we can kill it.
>>
>>46879707
I think he said in the first thread that the Death Knight could only be killed by a god or some shit so there's the plot device right there for you.
>>
>>46879768
>>46879776
Well, desperate times call for desperate measures:
>Time to become the mournful Dragon-God of Wrath and slay the goddamn Death Knight.
As far as I've seen, the DM isn't too far gone that he's just gonna hand his girlfriend the city via DM-fiat.
So if she wants that city, she's gonna have to fight for it.
Let it all burn. Everyone deserving mercy has already left.
>>
>>46879796
Plus, having a character ascend to godhood through the indiscriminate slaughter of evil is pretty cool. And it fits with Headmaster's theme of being willing to resort to cruel means for the greater good.
>>
>>46879796
Well, crazy elf is dead. Daddy dearest had her frozen head hanging off his belt, and than by the sounds of it he killed Headmaster's character and ate his soul.
>>
>>46879796
GF's elf is dead already I think, so's the Headmaster.

>>46879666

Sure, so lets get started with what we know then.
1)He can break down a wall and rip off a gate with his hands (standard BBEG shit)
2) Sliced through a force cage so he's probs got a disintegrate sword or something similar.
3) Was injured by but not killed by the explosion the headmaster used as his plan B
4) At one point his slam choked a ghost and then ate that shit.
>>
>>46879843
Too bad he died because if he succeeded with his Old Man Henderson inspired plan of bringing the building down on the BBEG he would have gone down in legend for once again completely fucking the plot.
>>
>>46879843
>>46879864
Uh. I think you may be right. Too bad the post isn't very detailed.
That said, I wonder where the Dm is going with this. Maybe the cleric is going to call his god or something?

Hell, I thought the explosives would of done more damage and maybe send the Daddy Dearest skittering away to lick his wounds, giving our hero time to recover and gather his allies to wipe that bastard out of existence. God dam I'm starting to get pissy again.

>He didn't get a chance to become a proper dragon
>>
>>46879864
And we still have the sorcerer,the cleric,the OP's student and some Paladins left so out of that group who can effectively be able to hurt him?
>>
>>46879958
I know, right?
It's like the DM doesn't know what he's doing! Why would he give such an awesome opportunity to kill someone next?
>>
>>46879967
Paladin airdrop? Might be a stretch but paladins are basically proxies for their gods right?


Whats the limit on blessing things in 3.5 guys? Would it be possible to bless some acid and/or explosives
>>
>>46880026
It should work probably but you gotta remember the DM has used plot armor bullshit before and will probably use it again to the big Daddy from dying too early.
>>
>>46880024
He probably gave the OP a chance to get away but being the badass that he was he fought to the end instead.
>>
>>46880241
As a DM, I can't help but feel that this could have been handled otherwise. The Death Knight could have captured the headmaster to show him how pathetic his efforts were, then be surprised by "Suddenly Dragon!!!".
I know it's like gloating and shit, but throwing a perfectly awesome plothook like that is not an option.
>>
>>46880336
Well the OP blew up himself in the end he detonated the school while he and the Death Daddy were in it to take it out so it might have just been the OP wanting his character to die so he could start again with his student character.
>>
>>46880402
I think he's idea was "I'm going to blow everything up and you're coming with me".
>>
So what was the purpose of the BBEG eating a ghost?
>>
He could create a new character lawful good with the the backtstory of being a student seeking to end the evil that destroyed his home. The modivation would be to free the headmasters soul and lay him to proper rest.
>>
>>46880486
My thought is that it was used to show his power over the undead or something like that.
>>
>>46880465
The nuke worked it did hurt the bbeg and now he can power game a better character to enact vengeance.
>>
>>46880512
I believe he was showing "Hey, Headmaster you died and became a ghost, and now Daddy is going to eat you and there's nothing you can do about it ".
>>
>>46880510
Yeah he has a level 1 magic wielder student that he's gonna use as his back up.
>>
>>46880540
Headmaster died, why do you think he went to jack off to Asian milfs (except you know, the usual reason).
>>
>>46880558
Did he end up eating his ghost?
>>
>>46880591
I know he died hence why i said power game a character i meant a new one. Though i do agree with the asian milfs part.
>>
>>46880616
I believe that's what he meant from "KNIGHT JUST CHOKESLAMMED A GHOST WITH HIS BARE HANDS AND ATE HIM" (I'm quoting) and "Guys I need to step out, I need to relax a bit, do what you want with the thread, don't care. I need to watch some asian milfs. captcha juice".
>>
>>46880660
Shit, didn't see the new character part. Sorry about that.
>>
>>46880663
Awwww sheit. Well I guess he isn't coming back as a helpful ghost any time soon.
>>
>>46880691
But he can come back once the death knight is defeated and all the souls are released as a "good job I am proud of you" to his student.
>>
>>46880663
I wonder when the Headmaster will come back? How many asian milfs can one man handle?
>>
In the process of writefagging a bit the final encounter.
Except some liberties being taken.
>>
>>46880741
I wonder if they'll do the same for the elf bitch too

What better to take down a that girl that an army of that guys, op came to the right place.
>>
I can see them coming. Numerous... no, even more than that. They want my city, my life and everything I've built.
I look to the side. I can see everybody walking around going about their daily lives, innocent and unaware of the danger. They don't see the impending doom, and maybe it's better that way... A wrenching pain in my hand distracts me from my day-dreaming, and I'm back in the bleak present.
I have bright scales all over my body, and fierce-looking claws are piercing my fingertips. Clouds of dusts are rising over the empty streets as the invaders are getting cut by my traps. I wish for an end to all this meaningless suffering, but no-one will answer. I only have myself to blame for what's happening, and it will fortunately end here. This city is being put down by the invader, the unworthy bastard and the cruel brute... I look back to everything I've built and I see it all going up in flames.
An explosion rocks the central square where I used to go buy my groceries. Oh well, it's not like I'm gonna need these anymore. The smoke is rising through the air, and cinder is slowly covering the ground. But what gets my attention is the cold, the terrible cold. As my anger rises and my opponent arrives to the gates of the school, I can already see the snowflakes piercing through the clouds. I can't tell if the source of the cold is the snow or the foe in front of me. On his hip I see the head of the instigator, the damned traitress. Even with this fate, I can still feel my cold hatred seeping through my pores. Her face speaks of the suffering she must have endured, yet she will get no sympathy from you...
>What's left, now?
Cont.
>>
>What's left, now?
He is grinning, the defiance of a being promised immortality and absolute power. His pristine armor hasn't even been scratched by the combats he has endured. His entire body radiates pride, burning with the confidence of the one who has never been refused anything, and could get away with everything. Even his question stings, seething of cruelty.
You look at your hands. You look at the wasteland around you. Then you look at him. Your hatred is back, stronger than ever and you won't let anything get in your way. Before you body gives way to the icy permafrost, you can hear yourself muttering onee thing...
>Only death, I suppose.

I like the personal touch and first person, but could you pleaseg give details on the actual game too? We're all dying to know what tactics, spells, and other mechanical bullshit you pulled off during the siege and final showdown. And how were things with the GM and girl after the game?

>>46881187
Dude, I'm not Headmaster, just saying.
>>
>>46881187
Anon I don't think he's the Headmaster I think he's just writing up the story.
>>
I just like the think some near immortal necromancer who hadn't been threatened in a thousand years by any foe. Was wounded by some wizard in a backwater town, that he was reminded he could bleed. No matter what that dm does his bbeg was hurt by a sleep deprived mutating wizard against all odds.

To keep discussion going while we wait, how would you feel if you learned one of your players got advice online on how he should play?

Defence planning was a lot of fun and it made sense since he thought he was going to be fucked by GM bullshit, but I'm not sure if I'd be annoyed or not if I had a player go to a hivemind of gaming nerds to help him perfect a strategy.
>>
>>46881390
Well the DM was being a dick and the OP had the odds against him so I think in this case we were in the right.
>>
>>46881390
I dunno. It isn't much different than if the player had researched historical sieges on his own.

Plus in this case there was a strong concern for DM fiat, so its more justified.

All things considered, the GM ran everything rather fairly until the Death Knight walked through everything
>>
>>46881390
Honestly as a dm i wouldn't mind, as another player i would be pissed. My dm stuff holds up pretty well but it gives op a one up over the other players.
>>
>>46881450
I agree, the GM was being quite fair until the Death Knight, and than I start to Rabble, rabble, rabble, etc.
>>
>>46881464
Well the player didn't know what to do or if anyone would help him so he had to go somewhere for help. Besides the story would have suffered if the OP just let that elf bitch walk all over him.
>>
>>46881496
Yeah. The Death Knight was set up as an unstoppable BBEG type though. The only thing that was really egregious was him slicing through the Force cage.
>>
>>46881505
I agree in this situation but it gives a player a huge amount of advantage over others. Having many nerds helping devise a plan trumps your average player, it was only countered here because she had the dms help.
>>
Headmaster here.

Wrote down in advance what happened from the moment I nuked the knight. Posting now

I'm not very good with writing, I limited myself to explaing what happened. Sorry for have keeping you waiting.
>>
>>46881688
He has returned!
>>
>>46881688

My last gambit was able to damage the Death Knight, just a little bit or ,to quote the dm, like a very bad sunburn.
The Death Knight took what remained of the elven army and went back to his realm.

The refugees with my students and Cleric managed to saw the explosion from the river. They arrived into the biggest city of the realm and started preparations for an expedition.

Other students arrive to help with the refugees, even the one who became the matriarch of her noble family, and start calling the 5 who stayed with me during the siege “The Hand of the Headmaster”.

Cleric tells everything, even my transformation to his superiors and they are not happy. They try to underplay my role in the matter, giving credit to cleric and their paladins. The party is not pleased and neither the refugees or the students.

Cleric resurrected the student that got nailed to the siege machine. She doesn’t talk anymore, just staring in to the void and has breakdowns if someone touches her. Her family put her in an asylum.
>>
>>46881688
You beautiful bastard, this has been a wild ride thanks for letting us on it.
>>
>>46881752

Party, the HotH go back to the city to see what happened.

The city is in ruins, the walls that resisted the siege have melted and their stonework is black now. The Slums are still up, infested with ghosts from the battle and traps.

They go directly to the where the school was standing, the only place without ghosts. Nothing but white ashes, they even can’t tell the difference between my ashes and the one from the building. Cleric builds a small ashpit, like the ones in the dunmer ancestral tombs, because he knows that I love morrowind. The students fill a little urn to bring it back with them.

On the way of the return they find near the border the headless corpse of the elf, purple and black scales growing on her back, with little stumps that were becoming wings. I’m a bit pissed that she got better colors than me . Party leaves her there.
>>
>>46881752
>to quote the dm, like a very bad sunburn.
Wait what.
>>
>>46881777
Plot armor.
>>
>>46881777
Sounds like the dm is over hyping his bbeg, it's just bad dming.
>>
>>46881776

Back in the city the student-Matriarch paid for a little mausoleum where to put the urn. No funeral, because there is much stuff to do.

Students during the day help with the refugees, the night go to mine mausoleum to spend time together . They talk about the fact that they are scared of the future, but also that also filled with determination and the will to change the world.
GM gave me some snip bits about some of the most peculiar students.

The HotH have problems to coping with what they saw during the siege. They have nightmares and ugly thoughts in their heads, but also think that they are going to be fine.

Head student talks with the urn and tell me that he is going to be the man that I never was, doing the right things in the right way. He also told the urn that he banged the matriarch in my office when I was out adventuring.

The Criminal leader who helped during the siege enters the maosulem, scaring the shit out of my students. He shows them a new tattoo he just got, a set of blue dragon scales on his left forearm. Then he leaves them some alcoholics before leaving. They get plastered and go home.

Student-matriarch waits until everyone is out to talk to me, in the same way the Head Student did. She tells me that she started rebuilding my network of contacts and spies, expanding her influence little by little. She also thanks me for helping her realizing that she was not only a bargaining chip to be married away for her family and, that from now on, she will be the one in control.
>>
Alternate ending coming, had to be held back because of eatings and socialings.
>>
>>46881809
>He also told the urn that he banged the matriarch in my office when I was out adventuring.
Head Student is pretty great.
>>
>>46881809

Despite the efforts of the Church, paladins and warriors in search of retribution started doing pilgrimages to my last stand, fighting with the ghost of the city in order to bathe their weapons in the ashpit.

The party wants to bring down the Death Knight and has started to planning their next move.

Elf’s player started creating a new character and is smiling a lot. I think she enjoyed her character death more than me.

Now I'm writing the little bits I got about my students, give me a few minutes

Okay, I'm kind of mad.
Like really, if your player went to that much trouble at least make it seem like it had some effect. Even if he isn't mechanically weakened a noticeable scar or mark would be much more satisfying.

This >>46881809 >>46881855 however is pretty good. Great character development when the GM isn't jacking it to his super cool edgy bad guy.
>>
>>46881855
Oh shit this sounds like Verdun or Vimy ridge.
>>
>>46881809
YEEEES based Headmaster we love you and your stories
>>
>>46881905
I'm also pretty mad about that. Happy about the character development, but it sounds like the DM is trying to drag your character through the mud for the crazy elf bitch (am I the only one hearing whipping noises) and that makes me mad.
>>
>>46881855
>>46881905
I'm glad he at least got to keep some of his legacy. I'll bet the church will switch to acknowledging his role and just ignoring that pesky half-dragon detail instead.
>>
>>46881950
All the other players know the truth though and thats what matters. This dm was stupid to miss out on all the plot and cool shit this could have created.
>>
>>46881776
We were right guys. She was becoming a dragon
>>
>>46881971
It sort of stands for the fact that even a half dragon could redeem themselves.
>>
>>46881992
Yeah I know, but it still leaves a bad taste in my mouth.

>>46881855

Here are the peculiar students bits

>>Headstudent, Sorcerer lv 2. Lawful Good.

You all know him, my head student. He was the son of a prostitute and a sailor and raised from clerics. Managed to get a scholarship for my school and to be top student. Wants to go and change the world.

>>Student 2, Expert 1/ Fighter 1, True Neutral

Heir to a Merchant family, she has done her part on the walls with a rifle and a bayonet. She got a few scars, and she is good with numbers (skill focus – profession accountant). She wants to work as a mercenary, and has developed a taste for violence.
>>
>>46882112
I like your sorcerors backstory it makes for a good anti edge character.
>>
>>46882112
>>Student 3 , Aristocrat 1/Expert 1 Neutral Evil

The former prankster fo the school, the middle child of a Noble. The siege destroyed his humor. He helped the alchemists and the drugmakers creating the alchemical weapons and explosive and now he wants to study the craft, but his family wants to ride the moment and enlisted him in the army.

>>Student 4, (or the One who got Nailed) Expert 2, Chaotic Good
She is in the Asylum now, I don’t know if she will ever recover. She is a mundane healer and knows herbs and stuff.

>>Student 5 Expert 1/ Rogue 1 True Neutral
He was the one who was tasked in moving the supplies to the safe zones , now is helping with the security of the Refugees. Learned a bit from the Criminal Leader, but want to use his expertise for helping people, not robbing them. He doesn’t know if he should become a guard or study to become an expert in protecting houses and towns.
>>
>>46882240
Last, not least, the Matriarch

>> Matriarch Aristocrat 1 / Rogue 1 Lawful Evil

She is the daughter of an important noble family. Her brother was the head of the family and arranged a wedding with another noble. When he refused to listen to her and send supplies for the siege, She poisoned him and took control of the family.

She is now rebuilding my network of spies and expanding her influence little by little. She has plans to became a power player in the political scene.
>>
>>46882240
What do you as a player plan to do now? What sort of character will you want to play next? Somebody connected to this entire thing, or an entirely new character completely seperate from it all?
>>
>>46882329
I love hearing about the aftermath and how your students are carrying on, but after you're done can you provide any more details on the siege itself? We only got snippets as you were playing and that was the big thing we were all putting our hopes and dreams into.

Oh, and seconding >>46882356
>>
>>46882329
OP how were the milfs?
>>
>>46882356
Don't know yet. I would like to play as one of the refugees, or as one af my students.

I was also thinking to play as an rebel elf from the Death Knight lands, who wants to overthrow the tyrant

>>46882375

That was my fault. The siege was pretty intense to fight, not only for the battles, but for directing the city and it's resources. So much stuff happened.

The battles were the parts were I was able to cut loose, just blowing shit up and gassing elves.

Also I didn't give enough credit to the Criminal Leader and the Veteran Soldier who helped me led the troops. Those dudes were great

What you would like to know?

They've come for you, for everything you've built. You've spent your entire life gathering all these people, building this school and proving to the world you could do something worth it, and still they defied you. Even now, one of them is coming to kill you, for the sake of massacre without a second thought. Because he can, and no one will stop him.
When they said they would come for your city, you replied that you would train troups, enlist mercenaries and build fortifications.
When they sieged you in your own walls, you stood tall and didn't give way for doing this would be the admission of the failure to your people.
When they killed your apprentice, finally a crack appeared and you decided to slaughter the ones responsible for this.
When they starved you, you sent your people away from the most trusted to the unworthy, so that no one could see you at your lowest.
When they breached your walls and brought them down, you led them into your traps to take as many of them with you to the grave.
When they pushed through the bloodbath and emerged from the maze of stone, you were alone in your school, the last remaining bastion of your achievements.
And now, he's tanding in front of you and you can sense he's about to say something...
Haven't you had enough? Of being robbed of eberything worthwhile you did? Of being dragged through the mud so that selfish people can enjoy their ill-gotten treasures? Of always losing because you are "never good enough"?
I've seen that crack grow within, I've waited to see what you would do, what THEY would do... I've learned more about the cruelty and unfairness of the world in these few hours I've spent with you than in an eternity of waiting. You have been tested enough to know should have the right to win, yet they deny you even the right to live!?
Haven't you... had enough?
>Cont.

>>46882617

I'm kind of interested on how much this whole escapade cost as a gold value? I mean this couldn't have been cheap right?
>>
The city has fallen and your troups have invested the inner rings. Only the school, and it's headmaster remains but they are of no threat to you. Nothing ever has been, and you've since long lost your humility. You are the ultimate conqueror, fated to die to a non-existing god that will never come and no-one will ever kill you for you are War incarnate. In your wake, nothing remains, only Death...
*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*
As the conqueror stands before you, you wonder if it was fated to end this way. Everything lost, to what? At this moment, the voice rears it's ugly head... Is it going to tempt you again? You wonder what you would have to gain from that, then the absurdity of your thought strikes you. Gain, when you've lost everything? All is lost and so are you...
*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*
He is there, standing in the middle of the square. He is likely awaiting his death, and at this point you can't exactly fault him. No-one has witnessed you charge without dying of fear, and he won't be the exception. Now that you see him though, he does seems fairly intimidating, not that you would care... But wait, what is that?! What... what is he doing? This... this isn't - no this can't be real!
*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*
You look at your opponent. Standing tall, acting mighty because no-one can kill him but a god. These are the kind of monsters that you decided to protect the world from, even if you have to sell your soul and burn it to the ground... You may die, you may suffer but you won't let him get away with taking everything from you! Not this time! You. Have. Had. Enough!
Your eyes dart up, and your corrupted eyes stare at your foe. He recoils in fear when he sees the scales on your body, he has understood what a monster you've become. Maybe he hasn't forgotten fear yet... You spread you wings and, in this impulse of power you feel rushing from your hatred, you prepare your last lesson.

>Hello pupil. I am the Headmaster, let me teach you... the meaning of Pain!
*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*
Fire and snow, merging in the bloodbath. The city lays in ruin, a testament to the inanity of this war of loss, destruction and pain. They say that in the middle of this ancient wreck lies the home of a monster beyond imagination, a god even! They say he retreated here after he killed those who destroyed the city and that behind him only Death remains... and Wrath.
>>
>>46882933
The elf probably had it before she died because of all of this male human violence is so TRIGGERING.
>>
>>46882801
Yeah how has the rest of the party reacted to all of the advice we've given you?
>>
>>46882617

>>I was also thinking to play as an rebel elf from the Death Knight lands

Just realized that by hating some much elves, I am at risk to becoming one of them.

>>46882667
>>46882678

The town had more or less 2500 people. After the evac, I had about 600 people to count on. Many of them were soldiers but the others didn't have any experience.

At the end, I had lost about 400, but those who survived were hardcore.

The Veteran Soldier was the militia leader and he trained them in deploying the pavise (I remember the word this time) and fighting with spears, crossbows and one handed weapons. Some had to fight with sharpened sticks and oars because we didn't have enough weapons at first.

I left the firearms to my students and trained soldiers and left the siege machines in the hand of the dwarven mercs I hired.

The big suprise were the criminal gangs fighting underground. They tore up elven commandos with fisherman hooks and cleavers while protecting the supplies room.

Sorry if I got a bit OT, but they were awesome

During the Siege, I think we managed to kill at least half of the elven army

Don't know how many of them died to traps or to the nuke.
>>
>>46883194
>600 civilian defenders
>400 lost

>2000 elven attackers
>1000+ lost

Good show.

That means 2100 people from your town are alive, and the elven population has been cut in half.
>>
>>46883194
Have you ever considered smiting evil?
>>
>>46882915

Lots and Lots. After a while, things got so out of hand that we started using a resource point system.

The support of my students gained me 2 points, the Matriarch another 1, the gangs another 1 and so on.

With 1 point i could buy supplies, asking for weapons or paying the smugglers to bring people out.
>>
>>46883194
Hell of a fight, I wonder how many were wounded and how the bbeg felt about losing so much to such a small target.
>>
>>46883341
How did everyone react to your resistance? Were the party suprised by your tactics? it must have shocked them when you used mud and gas.
>>
>>46883194
>those who survived were hardcore.
How hardcore? Fourth level fighter hardcore?
>>
>>46882933
>>46883401

Lots of them. The alchemical weapons and my cloud spells made them retreat in more than occasion.

The party was surprised by how mundane I was keeping the siege at first. They expected me to go in with spells blazing, but I wanted to see how the elven army would react.

Cleric in character was critical of the alchemical weapons.The player pretended that DM would describe elves mercy killing their comrads with club, like in WWI

I was surprised too by how useful the mud trick was.
>>
>>46883528
Gotta love trench warfare. It's dirty, it's bloody, and it's amazing.
>>
>>46883444

The Gang members started a gambling hall where you could play card and win elven ears. The Criminal Lord started going around with a necklace full of knife-ears.

They fough aganist elven archers with pots of boiling water and sand, fisherman hooks, cleavers, sharpend stick, clubs at the beginning. Some of them tried to use the elves weapons aganist them, but then returned to the more crude weapons.

GM seems to get all this flak, but judging by the narrative our relayfag provided, GM seems to be doing petty hot as far as I can tell. Above the wiles of GMGF, delivering harsh but deserved punishments, and allowing most of relayfag's shenanigans to go through as desired/plausible.

I mean, sure he's got this super-powered villain here, but that's hardly a unique thing as far as high-level games go.
>>
>>46883620
Out of character you are going to be the guy who turned medieval fantasy into ww1. You should be proud.

He didn't spoke a single word, except for the dragon shout. He just walked towards me, laughing at my attacks.

Guys, just to let you know, my last stand wasn't so awesome as many of you think.

I was scared and for a moment I almost thought of running away, letting the world think that I died in a fiery explosion aganist the enemy.

At the end, I wasn't standing tall, I was on the floor writhing in pain because my arm was broken, looking the Death Knight in his flaming eyes while mine were full of tears.
No final speech, No witty retort.
I just wanted to burn with the intensity of the sun,
>>
>>46884022
When it comes down to it that's probably how a lot of them go.

Still, you died angry rather than broken with your students safe. It could have been worse, anon.
>>
>>46884022
It's alright, you fought tooth-and-nail and will go down in history as the man who halted the invasion headed by a near demi-god, outnumbered nearly 4-to-1 (i believe)
>>
>>46884022
>>46884058
Read this
You could have run but didn't in the end no matter how much the bbeg laughed you cut his army down and humiliated and brought down his daughter while what you fought for survived.
>>
>>46884022
How you died isn't as important as how you're remembered, and you're being remembered as someone who gave everything to save their city.
>>
>>46884149
>>46884099
>>46884214
>>46884058

You're right. I'm happy that I manage to make a good speech to my students before sending them away on the last boat.

This shit writes itself
>>
>>46884504
i think you forgot about the shit-tier dm who probably would turn his student into a fucking dragon.
>>
>>46884504

One of the things that surprise me is that my group thinks that my true heir is the Matriarch, while /tg/ the Head student.
>>
>>46884526
It's a shitty thing to do, but at least he can become a dragon god of wrathful retribution and end the fucker and this elves/undead

>>46884630
Well the Matriarch is the same alignment and is rebuilding your empire so to speak, so I can kinda see why they would think that, but that student is easier for us to identify with. Essentially, the matriarch is who you were, the head student represents who you could have been.
.
>>
>>46884630
They are pretty much the opposite sides of your coin, one learned the sneaky ways from you to do things at any cost the other took to heart the bit about doing the right thing and plans to be what your character wished to be.
>>
>>46884676
I'm also rooting for the student. The last words I said to him were "Now go and be the person i wished to be. Be better than me".
>>
>>46884731
Oh shit he has to avenge his teacher and do it in a lawful good way.
>>
>>46884722
>yfw they both work together and put the best attributes of the headmaster together to defeat the BBEG
>Matriarch does the dirty work, Head Student does the heroics
>yfw they have a romantic subplot

Someone make this a movie/book/game or something god damn
>>
>>46884630
I think it's partially because you mentioned the sorcerous student first, which makes them seem more like PC material.

I think they're a better successor since they're trying to be better than you, rather than the matriarch who is going to try and be like you.
>>
>>46884778
The little bastard banged her in my office. He told it to my urn.

And how does ol' teach react to that?
>>
>>46884871
>>46884873

With anger and jealousy, because I didn't see any action in that office.
Truth be told, it was a pretty sweet office. I think he wanted to impress the matriarch.
>>
Btw guys, I want to thank all those who helped me with siege tips and stayed tuned for the tale of the Headmaster.
You want to hear some other things?
>>
>>46885265
If you got stories to tell we have time to listen.

>>
>>46885265

>>
>>46885284
I don't have much left to be honest
Just some bits about the Criminal Lord and the Veteran

>> Criminal Lord

The Criminal Lord was this giant fat guy covered with magical tattoos and scars. He always smiled and offered anyone a cup of tea.

First time I met him, I asked him his help for defending the city. He told me that I was too clean and that he couldn't trust a guy with no ink on his skin.
Then he proceeded to block me down, put a rag in my mouth and tattooed me a wind rose on my right bicep, marking me as his honored brother. Then he kissed me on the mouth.

>> Veteran

The veteran was this old soldier, full of scars, shaved hair and muttonchops. He was an officer from the enemy army that attacked the city years before my character was born.

His attack failed, and was sentenced to exile. Dude decided to tempt the fate and started living in same city he attacked, just for kicks. He opened a flower shop, and from time to time he would walk around with his purse in view just to beat the shit out of the thugs that would attack him.

I would like to say that I hired him after seeing fight, but the main reasons was the muttonchop.

He went into battle with his old armor and shield from when he was in the army and said.

"At the end of this day, this shield and this armor will be covered so much in blood that you will not the symbols on them. Who wants to live to see it?"
>>
>>46885752
Now this is just a hunch... but I think the criminal lord may be raging homosexual.

The veteran seemed cool though.
>>
>>46885752
That crime lord seems just insane enough to be in charge
>>
>>46885752
So what is the sorcerer that impregnated the elf feeling/doing now?
>>
>>46886010
He is sad for the child, but has no feeling left for the elf.

Dude followed her into the elven lands, and after she refused to leave or to guide him to the border, he dominated an elf and escaped by himself.

Sorcerer and Cleric are now working to get the Church to recognize me as a Saint or something like that.

Cleric is promoting the shit out of the Ashpit he built in the ruins of the city.
>>
>>46886104
In before worship of your old character elevates him to a God who seeks vengeance on the death-knight and kills him.
>>
>>46886104
Yesssssssss, get the half-dragon canonized. Perfect.
>>
>>46886139
>>46886142

Paladins and warriors who seek retribution are already coming to my last stand to bury their weapons under the ashes in hope to bring some of that fury and fire with them.

The problem is that all who know about me know that I was becoming a dragonborn, and people are pretty close-minded about that in the setting.
>>
>>46886299
Any idea what would happen if you do get formally recongized while knowledge of your condition gets out?
>>
>>46886364
People already know, Different churches started doing sermons in which I'm only a crazy freak who blowed up a city while paladins and Cleric fought bravely aganist the evil invaders.

One of them tried to pull that in the refugees camp, nearly started a riot.

I don't know how to put it, It's a big thing in the setting this dragon thing.

With the party we managed to encounter some people who got trasformed in dragonborn or half dragons, they were ugly and repulsive bastards.
I can't imagine what a dragon could be.
>>
>>46886549
Do you have any stories about dragons in setting? They sound crazy.
>>
>>46886549
>>46886675

One time we got hired to enter a tomb and take some of the maggots and mold that grow on the bones of an ancient king.

I thought that they were the components of some strange spell, and during the expedition, bard got hurt and got drained a level.

The guy who hired us was a Dragonborn of Gluttony. Dude put the maggots and the mold as a topping of a nice meal.

The guy was so fat that he couldn't fly. He ate under our eyes a priceless artifact with his acid breath, and then tried to buy the bard from us because he wanted to taste the flesh of a human hit from such dark magics.
>>
>>46886858
He captured us and we met some of his playthings.

He bought slaves all over the world as one would order cattle, but his favorite thing was starving people to death, only to give them a piece of rotten meat or mouldy bread. After they took a bit of the meal, he would take that away from them and eat under their eyes.
>>
>>46886858

well fuck, good thing you died, i don't even want to think about what a dragon of wrath would do. wonder what kind of dragon the elf was turning into, could you find that out?
>>
>>46886929
>>46886858
Dear god, that's fucked and great
>>
>>46886929
When you turned into a half-dragon, did you just apply the template or did the DM make something up based on what sin you did?
>>
>>46887167
From his story, it seems he didn't get any stats since he was early in the transformation
>>
>>46886933
It was specifically righteous wrath.
>>
>>46886933

The Gluttony guy has explain to us what human flesh would taste different based on where you were born, how lifestyle you had, and what you were feeling at the moment of the "cooking". He said he could taste the emotions in the meals. Had learned magic only to torture people with different elements only to see how tasty they were.

I think Elf's Sin was pride.

We met a guy who was had become a Dragonborn of Pride.

The guy was a decorated officer, won many battles, got many medals and titles. It started like that, and then he started losing battles because he was too much preoccupied with glory than with winning battles.

The officer triggered the transformation and got discovered. He fled and disapperead.

Months after, he rallied different orcs and gnolls tribes under his command and started raiding villages and carovans.

The Fact is the guy didn't care about money or winning. In his eyes more wins would mean that more tribes would follow him, and so he would gain more titles and honorifics.
When we had to fight him, he presented himself with every nickname and title he had.
>>
>>46887167
From what I saw, you can gain different powers based on the sins that you commit.

Pride Guy had an aura of awesomeness insted of fear, if you failed the will save you would be compulsed to watch him in awe or to join his side.

Gluttony guy had a normal aura of fear, but wa able to eat everything thanks to his acid breath.

The transformation also seems to enhance your physical and mental stats
>>
>>46887232
Then I fear I would have become a SJW dragonborn of wrath, triggered by everyone.

Just kidding.
>>
>>46887719
What are the gods in your setting like, considering that you having living embodiments of sin that ANYONE can become?

I swear to god, let the student become THE DRAGON REBORN.
>>
>>46887895
It turns out that in addition to dragons of sin there are dragons of virtue and the student becomes a dragon of diligence.
>>
>>46887745

There are lot of theories about that.

Some people think that the gods created the dragons in order to keep people in check and under their control, worshipping them.

Others think that the dragons are aspects of an elder evil who sometime manage to extend his influence in this world

The Lawful Good God of the Cleric is basically Roland Deschain from the Dark Tower. An outsider who has come to our world to find worthy members to help him in his quest to keep an ancient evil at bay.

I was a follower of the Godness of Magic and Knowledge, who observe the world and the mortals as an experiment and magic is her way to change reality.

After my alignment switch I became a follower of a three aspect god, who manifested himself as a Spider, a Heron and a Shark (Yes, just like in far cry 3).
The Spider rappresented the web that keeps society together, but also the things that keep us trapped. Heron rappresented balance ad the Shark the will to live and power.
>>
>>46888049
So since Sin makes people chromatic dragons, does Virtue make metallic dragons? Are there tales of dragons and gods interacting? Sorry if I'm asking a lot but I do love when body horror and personal conduct interact
>>
>>46888235
There isn't such dinstiction, because every one seems to get a personal color and markings

From the little I saw my scales were blue/teal, with bright orange and white markings, similar to the ones on a coral snake.

Elf got black and purple scales, no patterns

Pride Guy got gold and red

Gluttony Guy was a sickly green

This were are all dragonborns or half dragons, not true dragons.

Full formed Dragons are legends, no one ever saw one in recent times. Some gods have legends of holy heroes killing dragons or of gods who trick the dragon into killing themself.

There is a God of Hunters who is said to hunt dragons and then eat their innards in order to cleanse the worlf of sin and prepare a new age.
>>
>>46888485

I like this God of Hunters, do we have any descriptions of him?
>>
>>46888563
RIP N TEAR
>>
>>46888485
He is a strange God, because he is worshipped both by good and evil people alike

His symbol is a spear and is worshipped both in urban areas and wilderness.

The Hunt is a ritual in which both the hunter and the prey have their roles and they both get cleansed, the prey by his death and the hunter by his act.

He is worshipped by bounty hunters, assassins, rangers and normal folks who enjoy the thrill of a good hunt, metaphorical or not. Even merchant ask his blessing when they have to sign important contracts.

He ia rappresented as a giant of a man, but with a soft step,wearing the skin of every prey he hunted and has different spears made from the teeth of his enemies.

I seem to recall that every ritual need blood somehow

Calling cleric to get confirmation
>>
>>46888563
Could you maybe approach him or try to find him so he'll help you fight the BBEG? Maybe tell him that you were willing to become a dragon to fight him as a way of showing your dedication to your people
>>
>>46888602
The Shark has a order of monk assassins that are the Eversor Temple, but with shark tooth necklaces . Sent one aganist a noble, he sunk the ship and came back.

>>46888832

As presenting the Death Knight as the ultimate prey?
>>
>>46888824
Very fucking cool, anon. Have your characters ever interacted with the god/higher ups of the religion?
>>
>>46888010
Virtue Dragons should look slightly like eastern dragons. More serpentine then bat-like.
>>
>>46889004
Oh shit, make death head over there out as the ultimate prey in this day and age. Hell, there is even a prophecy saying non but a god can kill him. That's perfect bait for a epic hunt
>>
>>46889004
Yeah, see if Hircine (that's what I'm calling the god) want's too hunt down Daddy Dearest, because he's got big guts.
>>
>>46889089
Or it may potentially backfire if death daddy wins.
>>
When's the next session OP?
>>
>>46889004

intelligent prey is best prey, and magical prey is even better. convince the God of the Hunt to EAT THE DEATH KNIGHTS SIN.
>>
>>46889157

>>46889127

>>46889297
>>46889402
Don't know, there are different major gods and some of them take credit for being the only one who keeps the ancient evil at bay.

A murderous fey spirit started killing people after a boy summoned her by mistake. The boy belived that the fey was a monster from a urban legend, fey started to became that monster.

We had to convince the boy that the cleric sword was able to cut down the fey once and for all before we were able to kill that thing. I think that is the same with gods, only with more people.
>>
>>46889275
Knight was human. Racist elf fought for her human daddy.
>>
>>46889629
This setting actually sounds a lot cooler than I initially expected.
>>
>>46889629
Well the how does the Death Knight have his power? Could it just be that people believe he's so strong and their belief makes him that way? Or is it just from a curse or something?
>>
>>46889664
Perfect irony!
>>
>>46889629
Btw how partial are you to calling your new character "The Dragon Reborn" to honor your original one?
>>
>>46889698
Right know, it's almost better than Asian milfs.

>>46889722
I still don't know what character should I do now, Rebel elf? Big Game Hunter? Student?
>>
>>46889937
I like the idea of playing as your student successor, if only because it ties into everything that happened in a really cool way.

That said, it's your character man.
>>
>>46889937
Big game hunter wanting to start a zoo? Like a victorian era explorer in africa.
>>
>>46889937
I cast my vote for the student. Just because it seems like it would make for an epic hero's journey as he went on a quest to fight in his mentor's name and for everyone he's lost
>>
>>46890041
I meant like someone devoted to the Hunter God, who wants to bring down the Knight,

Student is calling to me. Have to ask DM if we can retcon the fact that he is lv 2
>>
>>46890128
Short timeskip and intense training montage?

I'm gonna need the right 80s soundtrack for that and an old Italian dude as a trainer.

Student

>>46890587
Fuck yeah. Just use the theme from Rocky OP.

Student name is Sintri, no last name. His mom was a prostitute, dad a sailor, He was born in another city near the sea, my character brought him over to his hometown when he was 14. Now he should be 18 or 19, more or less.

The hedmaster's name was Mordecai Von Morgeni, he was the bastard son of a minor nobleman who bangend a witch and then was cursed by her. Never got around discovering what happended to his mom.
>>
>>46894919

I do enjoy this. It makes me wish to play in this world. Albeit I doubt I could be as epic as this.

>>46884022
Well, very late on catching up, but you did a nice job Headmaster. You helped remind some people in the proper way you win wars.

You don't win wars by winning battles alone, you win wars by completing strategic objectives and denying the enemy of theirs.
>>
>>46895133
>>46895708

Thank you for the kind wars, The next session is going to be 5 hours from now.

Had a chance to talk with Elf's player.

She told the background of her character

Her mom was so obsessed with the Death Knight, that she became a tsundere.
She started researching a way to put his undead baby in her and the Elf was the best results. Death Knight discovered the thing and decided to give Elf a chance.

There is a ruin in the elven kingdom that is filled with the failed experiments of the elf's mom, abominations that are failed clones of Elf.

There is a chance that we will be able to kill her over and over again.
>>
>>46896297
Man, this just keeps getting stranger and stranger.

Did she mention what the deal was with the Death Knight killing her character?
>>
>>46896363
She said her character failed him again, and paid the price. She didn't said anything else..
>>
>>46896430
What has she said OOC about the way you dealt with all of this?
>>
Students are talking to you from beyond the grave.

Holy warriors are making pilgrimages to your last stand to bathe their weapons in the ashes of your last stand.

OP, don't know if anybody else has said this, but it sounds like you're on your way to god-hood bro. If your DM does this right, you get your character back and the prophecy gets fulfilled.
>>
>>46896430
What has she said OOC about the way you dealt with all of this?
>>
>>46896543
She said that she played the character and she got in some way possessed by the Elf and that in the end, started hating her.

She also think that Dm didn't gave her any adventages or favors

From the last session to this one, there is a time skip of three years, so student sorcerer is good to go.

I think she is going to be the protector of the girl nailed to the siege machine, a way to atone for her gaming sins.

Dm told that he has prepared something special for me. I feel the need to bring some lube with me.

Prepare your anus OP

Started playing 10 minutes ago, someone already defiled headmaster's mausoleum and stole the urn with the ashes.
>>
>>46898780
Fucks sake.
>>
>>46898780
Damn. Maybe your (old) party can start tracking down the urn out of respect, or maybe students and mercenaries? That, or the headmaster's ashes will become a plot device in the future, which I consider strange because his soul was extracted and eaten by the Death Knight in the first place.
>>
>>46898780
Goddamn it, already?
>>
Finished now. We are going to resume tonight. Much stuff happened.

Headmaster's mausoleum got defiled by teenagers, they don't want a dragon-freak shrine in their city.

Refugees not happy at all. City guards go hard on them, refugees fight back with sticks and stones, manage to push back the guards.

Party and student try to resolve the situation, but people start to see the refugees as trouble makers and as dragon-loving degenerates. They start refusing them jobs and food, other cities don't want to help them.

Matriarch is now a power player in the political scene, gains the property of an island of the coast and starts supporting the creation of a colony. She offers refugees money to go there and start anew.

Many of them accept the offers, Student Sorcerer goes with them and helps them with settling and keeping at bay the goblins and kobold tribes on the Island.

Student start to explore the island, keeping goblins and kobold away and finds ancient ruins. The colony prospers by sea trade and by selling trinkets from the ruins, people are happy, Criminal Lord gets an upgrade and becames Pirate Lord. The student who was nailed manages to recover and goes to the colony to be an healer.

Other party members start to research on how to take down the Death Knight. Sorcerer manages to find a way to remove the magical protection of the elven realm, Cleric tries to find more information on the prophesy of the Death Knight.

Bard goes to check on the colony, because he thinks that someone is plotting aganist them, by making them look bad.
He finds the people there a bit unsettling, prone to rage, and manages to find out that the ruins are dwarven in origin, even if are built in an forgotten style.

>>46900849
Did you decide on your next character?
>>
We need a drawfag to immortalise this whole thing in some way.
>>
>>46900849
Sounds like a long thought out and complicated scheme to defile the legacy of the Headmaster. Who do we know has that much time on their hands? Just who?

Also, big ups to the brand new pirate lord. Dude deserves to be the creepy insane pirate we all didn't know we needed
>>
>>46900955
As Sintri, the head student. Lawful Good Sorcerer, at least I think.

I'm not sure because the last thing that happened before the break was the Headmaster waking up in his office.
>>
>>46901107
Maybe the faith that the refugees feel in the headmaster is making a new soul for him in his ashes? Its all going to be pretty funky from here on out.
>>
>>46901140

I don't know, The Dm just describe the Headmaster waking up in his office, like nothing happend.

Also sorry if I wasn't clear before, but the ghost that the Death Knight "ate" was one of his army, not Headmaster's
>>
>>46901180
Which case, soul + faith = ghost shenaigins.
>>
>>46901180
Damn son, looks like you're gonna get a round 2 with Daddy Death.

Use your mom as the next character.
This time a spellcaster specialized on curses. If the knight was cursed with immortality, then perhaps you could use some more curses to make his immortality at least very uncomfortable. Or, if you can, remove his original curse.
Also an older character has all the rights to come back with a high enough level to be on par with the rest of the party.
>>
>>46901796
He already has a new one anon. He's the student.

Something's wrong

No magic, office seems different

>>46902892
Stuck as a spirit in the ethereal realm?
>>
>>46902892
Oh okay, dream world.
>>
>>46902892
>>46903153

No scales, fully human
Everytime I look outside of the window I see a different landscape instead of the river

rocky wasteland, red desert, black forest, mountains

Can't cast any spell
>>
>>46903204
Probably Godworld then.
>>
>>46903204
Illusions? Maybe you are getting judged in the afterlife by the various gods?
>>
>>46903204
Go out of the office, rooms change positons, library full of blank books
>>
>>46903497
God of learning wants to talk to you?
>>
>>46903497
they are mostlikely making a illusion from your memory. Open a book you are 100% sure you know from start to end.
Try imagining that a door connect to another room than the actual one. if this suceeds try to materialize something like you fav wizardhat
>>
>>46903497
You're either dead or dreaming.
>>
>>46903497
School Front door barricated from inside, trying to open it to go out
>>
>>46904050
Have you opened your desk drawers? Might be something in there.
>>
>>46903204
Knight and elves have power over dreams and ghosts of past, right?
I think your character is going to change sides soon
>>
>>46904050
Probably some completely horrifying WORLD BURNED TO A CRISP THIS IS WHAT YOU DID stuff out there.
>>
>>46904050
Big bloody clawmarks on the door

Hometown outside, looks normal, nobody around

cloudy dark grey sky

Is this Hell?

Run back to office
>>
>>46904435
Dragon hell?
>>
>>46904501
Drell?
>>
>>46904435
Oh boy the elder dragon evil is gonna get yo soul senpai
>>
>>46904435
Opened drawer, full of thousands of different keys
Opened another, found a wooden cup.
Drunk water from it, didn't became immortal
>>
>>46904979
Can you find some tobacco or something to smoke until Educatimus or whoever gets there?
>>
>>46904979
>didn't became immortal
that's a shame.
if you can't get out the front door, is there some other way out? Perhaps you could make one.
>>
>>46905082
Opened the front door, was barricated from the inside. Big bloody claw marks on the outside.

>>46904979

Going out in the city.
I see shadow people but disapper when I go near.
Symbols are carved on the doors, religious symbols.
>>
>>46905481
Yea, sounds like generic THIS IS WHAT YOU DID shit.
>>
>>46905481
Are the symbols in any sort of pattern?
>>
>>46905481
>>46905798

Are symbols of different gods, on different houses and doors

>>46905481

Something is watching me, fog is raising

Is this Silent Hill?
>>
>>46906068
Search the houses with the Symbols of the Gods that seem less likely to obliterate you outright
>>
>>46906068
well if you find a pipe and start hearing static run like hell
>>
>>46906068
Found my father's walking stick
>>
>>46906605
do you think that counts as a pipe?
>>
>>46906605
Was your father alive or dead at the time of your death?
>>
>>46906605
Opened some doors, nothing inside.
I stayed too long in one house and poison clouds started seeping from the ground

Run into the slums, something big is stalking me

>>46906673
He used it to beat me up, so I think it's a yes

>>46906836
Dead
>>
>>46907218
Saw wings, it's dragon
>>
>>46907272
Oh okay, you're in Dragon Hell. What enchanted shit do you have?
>>
>>46907272
Looks like you are being confronted to your sin. You, the Headmaster, vs the Dragon that you were becoming.
>>
>>46907272
What colour were the wings, and/or the rest of the dragon?
>>
>>46907272
Fucking awesome
>>
>>46907272

Dragon stalking me through the slums, has poison gas breath and fire breath. Attacks from the fog with claws and breath.

Running like crazy
>>
>>46908395
Come on, Headmaster, you've got to make it! We haven't put all our hopes into you just to see you fall!
>>
>>46908395
Stop fighting.
Stand against him and tell him.
Tell him you are the fucking headmaster and that lesson time is over and he should stop with all these anger issues, 'cause you are both dead and ash.
>>
>>46908639
This anon could be right, the dragon might be a manifestation of your hate and misery and you need to control/defeat it, or he could be wrong your you gonna die. 50/50 chance.
>>
>>46909204
Well isn't he in the afterlife? If the dragon killed him would he be able to come back just like with the Death Knight?
>>
Just take solice in the fact your already dead, so you have fuck all to lose.

Though it might be a good idea to get the fuck back to the school, rebuild the barricade and look for clues like a good scooby doo character.

Maybe, or maybe his soul will be destroyed for all of eternity. At this point, we've got no idea. Just hold onto your butts.
>>
>>46908395

Guys, I need time to write this down in detail
>>
>>46909500
Take all the time you need, HM.
>>
>>46909500
Take your time

>Waiting intensifies

>>46909500

The Dragon got me cornered.

I'm ready again to make a last stand, another one.

I hit him with the walking stick, got nothing to lose after all. The dragon recoils in pain.

I can see clearly his colors: teal scales with orange and white patterns.

The blood starts flowing, I'm beating to a pulp Dragon-Me, I can't stop myself.

I start trasforming like during the siege, this time more painful. While I'm writhing in pain, I realize that I've done this before. My body is covered in scales, I grow powerful wings and claws and feel a wrath humans cannot even comprehend.

I became the Dragon now and a Human Me woke up in the office, clean of his sins. Sometimes I eat him, some times he kills me.

It had happen so many times that I don't know who is the real me anymore. I will be trapped here forever if I don't break the circle.

My headstudent wakes up from this nightmare.
Confused as hell, doesn't know what to do.

The healer-student has another breakdown, has to be restrained again. She talks about being trapped and starts making strange drawings. Her battlemaid comes to see her and seek the help of the Headstudent.

Battlemaid and headstudent talk to the party about the nightmares.

The attack to the Death Knight is no longer the main objective. Party wants to search the outer planes in order to free Headmaster from this circle.
>>
>>46909798
Ah, so you're trapped in Dragon limbo
>>
>>46909798
Could be possible that the HD has to reconcile between his two halfs. His normal human self, and the part that became a dragon.

Though how you passify a rage beast is anyones guess. Remember one of your mothers lullibys maybe?
>>
>>46909876
Oh shit, that could work.
>>
Who are you playing as now headmaster? What about your other party members? (Ie DM's gf). Has your DM hinted at how he was going to solve the XP gap?
>>
>>46909798
My god, that's beautiful
>>
>>46909798
Have you been able to wave to the other you or anything like that?
>>
>>46910211
I'm playing as the headstudent, Sintri, sorcerer LG.

We managed to put a three year timeskip, during wich Sintri manage to gains some levels and many things happened.

Elf is now playing as the the Battlemaid, an elf fighter LN who is oathbound to serve a noble human family and has done that for several generations. Her current charge is the Student who got nailed to the siege machine, the now healer of the new town
>>
>>46910262
Not really, didn't get to play the Dragon part, was a sort of "cutscene".

DM said that I will be able to replay the nightmare from time to time in order to learn new things.
>>
Guys, this has been a wild ride. Thank to you all for the tips and support.

I will remain around to answer some questions if you have any.

I will not publish any more thread until we get to free headmaster, it's have been fun but oh my god I need to sleep now
>>
Out of curiosity, has anyone made a 1d4chan page for this yet?
>>
>>46910565
haha, its been pretty cool desu. Have a good one HM.

>>46910599
Probably not, feel free? Might as well save this.
>>
>>46910599
Don't think so. There was some talk of it, but I don't think anyone got around to it.
>>
>>46910622
>>46910565

Before I forget, here are the names

Headmaster: Mordecai Von Morgeni

Head-student: Sintri

the hometown who got sieged and destroyed was called Aslenberg
>>
>>46910849
See you soon Headmaster. These threads have been some of the best I've seen on this board so hopefully you will grace us once again with your epicness.
