And even more D&D brainstorming in 15 minutes

I have another session coming up on Friday! I don't think my party reads my blog. If you do--STOP IT!

So pretty much I have to think about ways that they may go after finding out that they're secretly royals and the queen is seeking them out.

  • Go to the queen
    • She is looking for them and the scholar knows who they are so this would make sense
    • They can then submit to trials to see if they are worthy of being her successor
    • They will be kept in lavish settings
    • There will be court intrigue for them to maneuver 
      • This would mean I need to come up with the court
  • Go to the queen's brother
    • The queen did go to extreme measures so perhaps they don't trust her
    • They can join the plot to kill the queen
      • Means that they need to build trust with him first
    • They can be used to try and become the queen's successor so the brother can have power
    • Court intrigue for them to maneuver
      • This would mean I need to come up with the court
  • Find other royals (can be part of any other plan)
    • Four others
      • 1 in Riocht, brought to queen, ambitious, female
      • 1 in Tuaithe, being brought to queen, unsure, wants to the lavish life but not responsibility, they
      • 1 in Tir, being brought to brother, hates the queen for what she did, male
      • 1 in Bhardas, being brought to queen, unsure, secretive, they
      • 5 others who didn't want to be brought to the queen
  • Decide to raise their own reputation before making a move
    • They may want to claim the throne but have their own support first
    • Chances for lots of side campaigns to save small communities
    • They could go to where Poem is a folk hero already
  • Return to Baile (can be part of any other plan)
    • They did take horses so perhaps they want to return them
    • Maybe they want to check to see if the town woke up for sure
    • Maybe they want to chat with Durogark again
  • Ask the scholar to come with them (this can be a part of any other plan)
    • Knowledgeable, good guide, connections
    • Resistant to leave because this is where the queen stationed her and she's loyal
      • Need high persuasion to get her to leave her post
      • A good argument could also get her to leave
  • Completely ignore it
    • I hope they don't take this option
    • Then they have to decide what they want to do and the world becomes even wider
    • Maybe they'll leave Riocht and I have to come up with another world
      • They could then claim to represent the royal family

15 facts I learned from a random Wikipedia article

Original prompt: click on "Random Wikipedia Article" and write about whatever comes up (you can try 3 times and pick your favorite). For the record, I got Alejandro Estivill , Fencing at the 2011 Pan American Games – Women's épée , and Benjamin F. Jonas . I chose Benjamin F. Jonas because it was the longest of the three entries and it had a photo. He was born in Kentucky, moved to Illinois as a kid, and went to college and spent the rest of his life in Louisiana Jonas's father was a merchant and lawyer His father knew Lincoln (like they were real buds) Despite this, Jonas sided with the confederacy Not only did he side with the confederacy, but he joined the Confederate army and rose to the rank of major He went to University of Louisiana (now Tulane) Jonas was Jewish (I didn't know there were Jewish senators who served the Confederacy) He was the second Jewish U.S. Senator from Louisiana and the third Jewish Senator overall Jonas was the first Ashkenazi Jewish US...

Origin story or first issue of a superhero whose super power is geometry

Arya sat in history class and was bored. She longed to get to geometry, where things made more sense. She liked geometry so much that she had joined the math team to be able to do it more. Okay, there was also the extra time with her friends who loved math as much as she did, but some of the appeal was just the math itself. Finally the bell rang and Arya had four minutes to get to her geometry class. She passed right by the chemistry class next door where her least favorite teacher was conducting experiments. He needed to be more careful, thought Arya. The teacher had once exploded a glass beaker and not on purpose. Arya took her seat and excitedly pulled out her notebook. It was her favorite color: hot pink. She assigned her notebook and folder colors in ways that felt right to her. And since geometry was her favorite subject, she made her notebook and folder for it her favorite color. As the teacher started to go over the most common mistakes from the last quiz, Arya could've swo...

Color palette

Original prompt: "Google "color palette," pick one, and write something inspired by it." I actually Googled "color palette public domain" to be sure I could use it and found the image on this post. I used the "floral" section for my inspiraiton. The soft sunlight somehow didn't dim the shine of the fireflies. Such it was in the fae realm. Fern loved this time of day in the faewild where it wasn't quite day, but it was far from night. Fern frolicked alone in the glade as she was want to do. It didn't matter to her that her laughter carried itself alone on the breeze; she was content. She wasn't sure how long she'd been alone as she watched the suns begin to set, but it was pleasant in its own way. But then, she heard a noise. It wasn't the noise of leaves on the wind or twigs snapping from some comforting creature. It was the noise of someone approaching with grim determination. Fern wasn't sure how to ready herself to ...
