Like the game doesn't offer ulder enough. and it's frustrating because some people are starting to see the layers behind wyll's discussion of his horns/why he would be seen as unsettling to the tieflings, but idk if people are also fully understanding not just the role devils play in the game but ulder's own experiences... he says he became a "plaything for devils" when in elturel. That's bad yeah? like I fully believe he loves wyll and I fully believe that part of his firm refusal to listen to wyll stems from not just the real fear of losing his son to powers beyond his control, but also from his recent trauma of being abused by devils and then seeing his own son bear these marks. It's still not fair to wyll. But I find that having a character who's a flawed parent, who tried and tries and still has shortcomings but admits to them, is incredibly interesting and worthwhile to engage with. But also larian seems so uninterested in actually exploring their relationship, as evidenced by how little we get between the two of them lol

Wyll is literally 24 years old. Younger than me. A baby. Way too young for all of that shit to happen to him

The thing I can't wrap my head around is Gortash's relationship with religion.

Did growing up in Avernus affect that? Denizens of the Outer Planes - including the mortals - don't tend to take deities (or "Powers") seriously the way the Primes do. Devils certainly don't. There are gods who have residences in the Hells, but they devils sort of just tolerate them "Though the deities have absolute power within their own realms, it's patently obvious who's really in charge here - and it isn't them." The souls of those who serve these deities are immediately forfeit to the archdevils the moment they break a single rule.

Some evil gods are often seen fighting devils to harvest fresh souls on the Shelves of Despond, where assorted (non-Torilian) faithless Lawful Evil and Hells-bound souls initially wash up when they die. Gods are not always the most powerful things out there; did Enver Flymm internalise this attitude?

Does he approach his relationship with Bane as though it were a warlock pact rather than a spiritual bond between devotee and deity? I'm reasonably sure he might've became Banite in the 1480s, when the gods were all suddenly making Chosen left and right; Bane just looked at this guy and went "that one" and Gortash kind of shrugged and went with it because it serves his plans too? Gods keep an eye out for compatible mortals, and try to sway them into worship and service, did Bane approach him earlier?

Does he feel anything about this religion or its god?

Sir, come here, I need to peel your brain matter apart for information.

It requires Wyll keeping his pact (which I hate) but listen in an half-ideal world the Blade of Avernus involves Wyll getting up to 11th level so he can cast Investiture of Flame and give Karlach a hug for ten minutes. He casts it every day just so he can hold her hand. listen to me. I'm right. (and then they break his pact and kill mizora and zariel and fix her engine and go home to their fancy tailor boyfriend in Baldur's Gate and then be happy forever. the end.)

Minthara in her most comforting tone: Patricide is often the first step to greatness. I know you’ll miss the hell powers tho 😔

[thegreatyin]

the secret to angels and demons is that when you get down to it you can actually treat both of them just like dragons, aka literally anything can be an angel or demon and rules don't exist. yeah there's an expected norm to follow and a ton of real-world inspirations to draw from if you need ideas but like. you really can just be so so so sillay with it

[leomonae]

Okay but... how much blood does a D&D vampire need every day, simply "once a day" is not greatly helpful in and of itself! Am I looking at, like... a city of 50k people to support 5k vampires sustainably where they only need a very small amount, or one of 500k going off real world blood donation amounts, or like 5 million if it's an entire person's worth of blood daily ffs, did anyone actually think through the logistics of this when they put it in the game?

I'm not actually convinced the Underdark has that many people living in it, if it's the latter. I'm not even convinced the entirety of the Sword Coast does! How the hells was Cazador feeding all these vampires enough to keep them alive for so long in the centuries leading up to the Rite?!

[timothylawrence]

yeah i dont know much abt the DND Lore (TM) so this might not make sense but i really was seated eagerly awaiting the Mizora working with Raphael twist in the House of Hope... like I was fully convinced that was the real reason she wanted Karlach dead- so Zariel would be weakened....

the last thing I expected was for Mizora to not be dealt with at all. lmao.
