#hwfwm book 6

[v01dblad3]

you know sometimes a think about the time when Shako killed Jason that one time (i believe it was in book six). and like. there was something i'm still wondering about---

he said the builder was gonna give him a gift? but then jason antagonized the dude and got slapped so hard his head turned into a fine mist lmaoo

but man, i wanna know what that gift was supposed to be. my curiosity is piqued. anyone have any ideas?

I am losing my mind now over all the times Jason thinks about Clive on earth. Thank you for making me so aware of it

no because it's absolutely insane. at first i was worried i was just imagining how much he was talking about clive because i was looking for it but i appreciate the confirmation that he talks about clive literally twice as much as the others

For the ask game! Rant wildly!

❓ Just infodump my guy infodump

okay so ima talk abt the villians in hwfwm bc i have thoughts abt how they can be improved lol (btw remember i love this series its v v good but theres some stuff that can be better lolol)

the big issue i have w the villians in hwfwm is theyre generally kinda flat feeling honestly. like they feel like theyre kinda there just to be hated/bad??? like theyre so shallow

lets take one of the earlier baddies from greenstone: lucian lampfrey hes basically just a super creepy dude who wants to rape sophie and shirt is very much like "hes bad hes evil hes a bad guy" and like. yeah he is very much a bad guy but like. why why is he a creep and a perv like give him some humanity i begeth thou shirt

okay how about mr north (one of the best villians): he initially is a very flat character with like the whole "take over the world" thing but like by the end of his characters arc hes shown to be more nice and like "i wanted to make magic free for everyone" typa thing but like. unless im forgetting it doesnt really explain why he went from i wanna make magic free to i wanna take over the world plus hes like. normal hwfwm villian until the second transformation zone in book 6 which like. cmon make him more detailed from the startt

ofc hwfwm isnt gonna be perfect and its not gonna be like the best media ever i just think more detailed villians r nifty lolol

OK HOES IM BACK AT IT AGAIN

i am triweilding hyperfixations rn (dnd, bg3 + hwfwm) so i decided that it would be fun to smoosh them all together into a fucking mess so i proudly present: a shitty jason asano char sheet for dnd (w a ver for bg3 bc the subclass isnt in bg3 (might need to change spells idk havent checked)) (also this is just for mechanics i would reccomed speaking to ur dm if u wanna add flavour items also idk how the equipment would go w bg3 so) this is not in the same order he gets his powers (aka he takes the mage hand cantrip even tho the powers it emulates (shadow hands and physical soul) dont come till book 4 and also he gets revival ish powers at level 6 just ignore it dnd has diff balance to hwfwm its no biggie heres how you make it!

first step: we r gonna take the high elf for the powers BUT we r gonna reflavour it so he looks human

for the cantrip w r gonna take message to emulate his vc power

then we take a background: urchin! (but change 👏 the 👏 flavour 👏)

this is mainly for the proficiencies and also the mouse which we r gonna reflavour as a colin leech (ask ur dm)

u can drop all the other flavour items or ask if u can change em since yk the lore dont add up if ur playing jason fr

now time for ability scores since here u go:

str: 8 (-1)

dex: 13+2 = 15 (+2)

con: 14 (+2)

int: 10+1 = 11 (0)

wis: 12 (+1)

cha: 15 (+2)

step four is to choose a class so im going with warlock since 1: i like it 2: its a spellsword form level 1 just like jason 4: the flavour is nice

ok time for the good stuff:

start by grabing arcana and deception as ur class skills (replace one w stealth and maybe sleight of hand too if u didnt take urchin)

equipment: any simple weapon, an arcane focus, a scholar's pack, Leather armor, any simple weapon, and two daggers

(u can take whatever simple weapon u want or maybe even ask ur dm for a sword (short or long bc u get those proficiencies from high elf)

next we wanna take the undying subclass for all its nifty death defying undead fucking powers

(if ur playing bg3 or ur dm wont let you use SCAG content then take the great old one)

now for the spells and cantrips:

cantrips at first level we r gonna grab will be mage hand and poison spray (on top of message (high elf) and spare the dying (undying))

spells will be hex and comprehend languages

at second level we grab the armour of shadows and eyes of the rune keeper eldritch invocations, grab arms of hadar, and dump comprehend languages for cause fear

third level is time for the pact boon! take pact of the blade (though if u really want a familiar take pact of the chain instead) (some ei's we take have potb as a prequisite so then just pyf) and also misty step

level four we r gonna take the skulker feat (or +2 cha if u arent using optional feats) as well as finally picking up eldritch blast (it doesnt suit the flavour ik it makes him worse but it also makes him quirkyer) and also grabbing ray of enfeeblement

level 5 we grab ray of sickness (undying expanded spell list) or if not then remove curses and also the one with shadows invocation

level 6 we grab vampiric touch

level 7 you wanna take blight and grab the thrsting bade invocation (pyf if u didnt take potb)

level 8 we r grabbing +2 charisma and also dimension door

level 9 its contagion (hold monster for u tgoo guys) and also theif of five fates invocation

level 10 blade ward babyyy

level 11 darkness + circle of death mystic anacrum

level 12 take lifedrinker and another +2 charisma

level 13 grab counterspell and finger of death mystic anacrum

after that youre on ur own kid bc i cba to take it into the realms of trully unbalanced

feel free to use this (lmk how it goes havent tested it yet) and change anything up (id love some feedback!!!)
