6) If your OC is in a fantasy setting, what profession would they be in the modern day?

7) Vice-Versa! If your OC is in the modern day, what fantasy class would they be? Would they be a different race?

for the main trio of The Chrysalis! Since it’s kind of urban fantasy (…?) what would they be in a totally normal Modern AU and what would they be in your classic DnD/High Fantasy AU?

(I hope that made sense 😭)

hi sea!! thanks for the ask ᯓᡣ𐭩.ᐟ ⊹

For the modern AU, funnily enough @ohagiwrites and I have already created one! (Atlas and Alastair were meant for a BL drama istg.) In the AU, Atlas, Wren, and Alastair all meet each other as kids and become close-knit friends. Alastair’s family is upper class so he’s well-off, with a tutor and a nanny and a personal chef. Meanwhile Wren’s family is upper-middle class, considering their dad is a doctor. Atlas’ mom, on the other hand, is living in poverty so he’s actually doing pretty…. rough.

For what they end up doing in life, we never decided the exact jobs they’d end up with. But!! Like in canon, Atlas is part of a band and then goes on to apply to a very high-off college of the arts, which he is accepted to. (He also ends up getting emancipated and adopted by Wren’s parents.) Wren would definitely take a gap year to figure out what they want to do with their life, travelling and whatnot while they discover the world. Meanwhile Alastair I think goes to a really wealthy college, but for literature or something like that which wouldn’t be “approved” by his parents.

(If you guys want to hear more about their modern AU lives just ask because we may have organized a whole ass plotline for it….)

Okay ashamed to say I don’t know a lot about DnD classes, so these might be a little inaccurate. But if the trio was in an actual fantasy setting, I think Atlas would either be a Fighter or a Ranger class, and a human. Wren would be a Fighter or a Bard, and maybe a Halfling? And Alastair would be a Warlock, or perhaps a Rogue, with elf descent.

Ok, so you've been isekai'd to the dnd world and may or may not die due to the class you've been assigned. Better question. Are you human? (spinner wheel of all dnd5e species)

My current Imaginary Scenario is to pretend I'm a mouse in a sort of Beatrix Potter World and imagine all the different objects in my house and how I obtained them. You know, spool of thread side table I stole from an old lady's purse. Velvet ring box armchair I found discarded in the park after a failed marriage proposal. Pocket square bed linens I liberated from the coat of a man distracted by a pretentious argument about beer. Bottle cap dishes also liberated during that argument. Beaded curtain that used to be a Mardi Gras necklace. That sort of thing.

A Quintesson attack leaves Megatron in need of repairs.

Let’s pretend this takes place early where Megatron isn’t incredibly paranoid about back stabbing (Starscream) yet

I miss the era of the internet where everyone had an evil alter ego/character that would show up on their channel, just to be silly, that eventually got a lot of lore from the fandom for no reason. It was a simpler time.

One of my biggest nitpicks in fiction concerns the feeding of babies. Mothers dying during/shortly after childbirth or the baby being separated form the mother shortly after birth is pretty common in fiction. It is/was also common enough in real life, which is why I think a lot of writers/readers don't think too hard about this. however. Historically, the only reason the vast majority of babies survived being separated from their mother was because there was at least one other woman around to breastfeed them. Before modern formula, yes, people did use other substitutes, but they were rarely, if ever, nutritionally sufficient.

Newborns can't eat adult food. They can't really survive on animal milk. If your story takes place in a world before/without formula, a baby separated from its mother is going to either be nursed by someone else, or starve.

It doesn't have to be a huge plot point, but idk at least don't explicitly describe the situation as excluding the possibility of a wetnurse. "The father or the great grandmother or the neighbor man or the older sibling took and raised the baby completely alone in a cave for a year." Nope. That baby is dead I'm sorry. "The baby was kidnapped shortly after birth by a wizard and hidden away in a secret tower" um quick question was the wizard lactating? "The mother refused to see or touch her child after birth so the baby was left to the care of the ailing grandfather" the grandfather who made the necessary arrangements with women in the neighborhood, right? right? OR THAT GREAT OFFENDER "A newborn baby was left on the doorstep and they brought it in and took care of it no issues" What Are You Going to Feed That Baby. Hello?

Like. It's not impossible, but arrangements are going to have to be made. There are some logistics.
