  • Your Laeral is very similar to the way I run Laeral in my games, which is lovely. I think she’s a good character, the tragic “I live forever” schtick works well on a genuinely good, intellegent, competent leader type.

    I do always feel that she makes friends with the PCs too easily in most of my games. (I have a similar problem running Vajra… which at least evens itself out a bit whenever the PCs suggest having the two of them meet up…) - but also, if you do (good-aligned) adventures out of Waterdeep for long enough, you should probably end up friends with both of them.


  • Oh yes, although with roleplaying setting metaphysics, it’s probably good to define this to be true if you’re using it in your game. (To make sure it interacts with the rules correctly and has the right keywords etc etc.)

    For example if you cast “detect poison” do you detect bottles of alcohol, or a hidden wine cellar, etc etc. If your DM has never considered whether or not alcohol is a poison it probably wouldn’t occur to them to mention it, but if they have then they might!


























  • I am happy to answer - I’m straight and cis, and happily together with someone,

    I have a lot of LGBTQ+ friends in real life - in no small factor influenced by where I went to university, where I live, and the hobbies I have.

    I do believe that more representation in media would be good for everyone. Familiarity is the greatest weapon against bigotry. It’s easy for people to hate an entire demographic they’ve never met - much harder if you know a couple and you see they’re just normal people like everyone else.

    But in this case, no such lofty ideals, it’s purely happenstance. In an early session, I ended up needing to answer the question of Konsi’s preferences, and I just picked randomly.
