The Bad Kids seeing the name GARTHY O'BRIEN: "This spells Night Yorb"

The Bad Kids seeing the name BONY GIRTH: "This spells Garthy O'Brien"

the more i think about garthy meeting the bad kids the more i realise how wild saying "thank god you've got your mother's looks" to fabian is as an introductory sentence. imagine meeting someone and they immediately go "oh yeah i recognise you. i find your father DEEPLY unattractive"

The Dimension 20 Fuckability Tournament Final Match-up:

At this point, we've heard many arguments for both sides of this epic sexy pirate face-off.

They're both pirates/sailors with incredible accents and self-confidence in spades.

Garthy O'Brien dedicates their entire life to making everyone around them feel as good as possible. Their whole thing is part of an orcish succubus-type situation that's basically fucking people into being good. They are the embodiment of Good, Giving, and Game. Their CHA is 21.

Captain Annabelle Cheddar was a royal, the heir of House Cheddar. But she gave up those rules and that pressure and chose a life of adventure on the ocean, where she developed core strength such that her thighs are weapons. She is strong willed and extremely loyal. She stands up for what she believes in, and she doesn't back down from a challenge.

rewatching fantasy high sophomore year and I cannot stop fucking thinking about the fact that garthy o'brien is canonically aguefort's grandchild. pov your family is made up of (a) the most powerful wizard in the world who has—and I quote—"extremely regular" sex with a flaming bird, (b) the half-phoenix woman who decided that a floating pirate city was the perfect place for a library, and (c) a person who unabashedly tells anyone who even sort of asks that their divine ancestral mission on this earth is to fuck people into being decent. what on earth must those family reunions look like

[gildedoak]

Imagine being a young adult and your foster mother (who is part phoenix and has already lived several lives) is reborn in a burst of flame. The woman who raised you is now a helpless infant, and has no memories from her previous life. This tiny chick with fuzzy feather down and a tiny lick of flame on her head is both similar and so very different from the woman you once knew.

As a phoenix and a wizard, your mother had her share of rivals and enemies, and she tasked you with protecting and teaching her new incarnation. There is a box of letters you are to give to the child when she is older.

You too have celestial blood, but you wonder if your developing powers are going to be enough to protect her until she is old enough to fend for herself. You live on a pirate city that floats upon the Celestine Sea; is it going to be safe enough?

What a tremendous weight that would be.

IN A NUTSHELL, I HAD DEEP THINKY THOUGHTS ABOUT THE NUMBER OF PROTECTIVE WARDS THAT GARTHY HAS ON THE GOLD GARDENS.

Brennan described that while on the property of the Gold Gardens, Garthy is practically untouchable. The buildings are placed to form a giant celestial rune. Technically the ground is considered hallowed? The amount of magic it took to activate said rune must have been enormous. Garthy probably had it built piece by piece, adding new sections of the campus as they also added more and more golden geometric tattoos on their skin.

Having a reincarnating phoenix daughter/mom/best friend would warrant that level of magical security.

MEDIUM: Copic markers, Sakura microns, and metallic watercolors

wuvvy/garthy came to me in a dream (accidentally drank a fuckload of caffiene and did the opposite of sleeping)

Top 5 most memorable NPCs? Aka the ones that keep you up at night?

(if you need it to be a bit easier you can do 5 funniest and 5 most horrifying/scary?)

just 5 is more of a challenge, let's go with that ^_^ they're extremely cold takes, but it is what it is.

1- Caramelinda. I genuinely have lost sleep thinking about her. Brennan once said about Steel WWWO that the problem is that she's in a game of dungeons and dragons. This fits Caramelinda as well, I think. So she's doomed by both the narrative and the very nature of the universe. She was repeatedly dealt some of the worst hands imaginable, but she had to keep standing tall. I could keep going.

2- Chungledown Bim. He's a level 20 warlock built specifically to be very very good at shitting in mouths. I think Cassandra wasn't lying- I think he really was in the forest by his own power. His greasy pelican familiar is named Upchungle.

3- Calroy Cruller. I have his monologue from ep 9 memorized. He bided his time for twenty fucking years without a moment's suspicion. He got the most narratively satisfying ending of all time.

4- Wuvvy. Where to start with Wuvvy. The tragic secondary lead of a romcom, without the consolation relationship. Eternal devotion, leaving everything and everyone she knew, to be with Rue, repaid with them telling her someone else made them feel really seen for the first time. I so desperately wanted to know more about what she was doing at the party with Apollo or in the many other places she seemed to have no reason to be, but Rue was too caught up with other things for it to have made sense for Oscar to follow up with that. Oscar's initial plan was a Rue/Wuvvy romance, but then Brennan did That.

5- Garthy O'Brien. Smash.

[wyrmwright]

I have just met Garthy O’Brien and they are so important to me

[wolfziedraws]

I'm in love with both of them your honor

[madamegoodparty]

The competition is steep, but I gotta say I think Garthy O'Brien might be the hottest NPC in Dimension 20, or at the very least the hottest NPC of Brennan's specifically

[scalpho]

forever enamoured by garthy's silently baffled reaction to fabian defending bill seacaster's appearance. that side-eye speaks a thousand words

[lilu-the-almighty]

Catching up on Fantasy High. Garthy O'Brien is genuinely the hottest character Brennan has ever made holy shit

[d20unfuckability]

"Garthy O'Brien is the single sexiest motherfucker in the entire d20 canon. Their entire thing is making everyone feel as good as they possibly can. Their voice is to fucking die for. They're even nonbinary."

"He's so hot that just taking a run gets him trending on social media. He literally has disadvantage to stealth because he's so damn sexy."

[garthyobsessed]

I'm irrationally obsessed with Garthy O'Brien, especially their voice, so I made a compilation of literally every word they speak in FHSY and PiroL. Enjoy!
