Demigod Child

As a DM I play 5e, and I tend to play fast and loose, often introducing different mechanics not in the book for monsters and NPCs. My players were in the middle of what was essentially a war zone, and decided to send off one character’s adopted kid to escape while they went to fight. This child wasn’t a fighter, and their only skill (as I described it) was that they were “Very fast and good at dodging”. So, the players decided to give the kid some tools. One was a halfling with a spare set of armor (good size for an elf kid), another had a poison handaxe, one had a spare sword, and the paladin (usually the resident goofy joke character) gave such an awesome and powerful good-luck you-can-do-it we-believe-in-you speech that I gave the kid a point of inspiration. I was actually getting amused by the fact that they were doing so much for this NPC child who I fully intended to be alright, but eventually the kid was ready to be sent off.

DM (me): So this kid is decked out in humorously deadly gear now, you gonna send them off? Monk: Yeah. I uh, I kneel down—"Just find my horse Breka and ride off to that one town until we can find you again, okay?“ DM: Uh, Sunny nods and looks really confident with themselves. They’re just gonna turn to set out towards that horse, they know where it is. Ranger (speaking for the first time in a long bit): I wanna cast a buff on Sunny. DM: You… oh. Okay, what’s it do? Ranger: It uh, it adds to their base Dexterity score, [about 7] points, and it lasts for awhile so they have a lot of time to get away. DM: It… what? That’s a spell?! Ranger: Yeah, it’s a spell. Barbarian (sitting next to her and leaning over): Yep, it’s a thing, I’m looking at it right now. DM: I… okay, you… you do that. Then the kid runs off to find the horse, and… oh my god. Guys, what have you done. Monk: What? What happened? DM: …So because Sunny is a child and a small target, I decided to give them a special mechanic. When they’re attacked, they can choose to either just let their AC handle it—which you just boosted with that armor—or they can try and dodge the attack. And instead of AC, they… they contest the roll with Dexterity. They already had a base Dex of 17. Group: *pause for a long moment before they begin laughing* DM: Guys, you just made this kid basically unkillable! You just—they’re a demigod, now, this little elf kid scampers off to fight Thor or something, and Thor can’t land a hit! You—the kid is immortal! This kid has become a diety! Monk: Protect my child! Not even god could hurt them now! God child!! Group: *begin chanting “God child”* DM: I—oh my god their initiative mod is insane now too, I—I think this kid just ascends into the heavens. I can’t believe you’ve done this.

special times for cat people

when they’re cleaning their feets and spread all their little toes out

when they smelled something weird and make a stinky face

when they walk up to you making little chirpy purrs of inquiry

when they get distracted by a noise mid-lick and a tongue blep occurs

when they see a bird and do that ekekekk thing

when they become possessed by the devil and tear around the house with demonic speed and then pause mid-vicious-attack of a scratching pole to whip their head around and fix you with their all-pupil stare of unhinged terror

The largest mass shooting in American history was a hate crime against gay people. Don’t ever forget that.

I Can Not Understand,But I See.

"I can not understand. For me, I see your colour, your sexual orientation, your religion, and even your culture, and I see. I see a dark woman walk by me and I think, "Amazingly unique". I see a gay couple walk by me and I think, "Aww, They look so happy". I see a Muslim woman walk past me and I think, "What a beautiful design". I see an African man wearing clothes from his homeland and I think, "Interesting". So I do not understand. I do not comprehend how someone can see a dark skinned African-American woman and tell her she is too dark. How they can take what makes her unique in the world and make her feel shame for it? I can not understand. When someone sees a gay man and decides that they will hate them simply for who they love, I am confused. I cannot see how who they love at the end of the day has to do with your life. It is confusing when a person decides that because of who they love, they must dedicate their life to hating these individuals, to insulting them, to hurting them, even when they have done nothing more than listen to their natural instincts. I can not understand. When a woman wears a hijab and is demoralized for it, I am taken aback. She chooses to wear it and she is proud, yet many seek to shame her for it. They see only their idea of oppression, not her sense of freedom and beauty. I can not understand. When a man walks dressed in the clothes of his people, he is proud. He is the symbol of a culture that is unique and beautiful, yet many seek to destroy his pride. They see a difference in him they wish to destroy, for reason only they know. I can not understand. I can not understand the need to kill 50 people because of their love, I can not understand the need to cruelly judge and attack a people because of how dark their skin is, I can not understand the desire to destroy all cultures but our own because it is different, and I can not understand the need to subjugate a religion based on the actions of a few. I see her dark skin, I see their love, I see her religion, and I see his culture, and I love them. I understand she is unique, I understand that they are natural, I understand that she is free, and I understand that he is proud. However,  I can not understand their pain."
