nightsky.

astarion reflects upon the nightsky; astarion & karlach | if you want to buy me a ko-fi!

The night moves on with the chatter and the laugher, the stars as only witnesses of a moment of joy among people who had so much to lose, and won.

Astarion stands a bit aside, away from the last remains of a crowd. People chatting, people enjoying an evening without thoughts, and he is reminded every second of what he could never have. He hoped that being away would alleviate the pain, but it lingers around him like an injury never healed.

He dreamed of this moment, these moments, for years. Centuries. And he still cannot shed the weight of what he experienced to enjoy one night like a normal person, without the baggage that comes with being Astarion. He barely even remembers how to be himself, what he would do in these situations if he isn’t the one used to lure one more victim into the belly of a beast.

And around him, everyone is simple. And joyful. Drunk on alcohol that is cheap, and full of food that sat in crates for days and days. Scorned by the druids that swear to protect nature, but their definition of nature is their own, and yet every single one of these people is happy. The rivers of good will run deep, and run far, but never quite as far as necessary for him to be free before mere days ago.

It makes his blood boil to see the serenity with which people go on about their business, about even terrible things they have to endure.

Betrayed, rejected, manipulated, everything under the sun. And yet he is the one who can’t stomach the most mundane of interactions without having to rely on the same old act, the survival instructions he built for his own good during the years.

He can only stay away, nursing his own bottle of wine.

Alone.

That is, until someone loud and warm like the sun he just learnt to enjoy again comes by. She laughs like all the others, maybe with more glee and bliss than anyone else, and she greets him into this night with a toothy smile, “Hey! Why are you here all by yourself?”

Astarion observes Karlach. Tall, imposing, gentle Karlach. The hound of the hells, depicted as bloodthirsty warrior is no more than a docile young woman who can drink someone under the table and has the enthusiasm to burn down a house. Quite literally.

Astarion should hate her. He should resent the way she can just avoid thinking about her own pain, while he can’t even remember who he was before he died. Yet, there is something endearing about the woman that pushes him to not be malicious to her.

Not entirely malicious, more like. He is still Astarion after all, catty and everything, “Maybe no one is good company enough for me, my dear.”

At that, Karlach laughs again. A genuine, deep kind of laughter that could appeal the most arid of hearts, if they are able at all to feel some type of positive emotion anymore. Astarion learnt long ago, vampirism dries up your ability to feel mildly, and everything becomes so much. He cannot even phantom what a pure vampire feels, if just a spawn like him has this experience.

In any case, that laughter both irritates and feeds into the growing affection he could see himself feel now that he is out of his own hell. It is difficult to trust again, to let his soul be soft and open to something that could hurt it again, but Astarion has the feeling that both sentiments he feels towards Karlach come from the same source: her past.

He has been robbed of the wonder one feels for the world, and there she is with the clock ticking inside of her, and she can laugh, smile, love with unbound enthusiasm. She embraces what comes to her when Astarion trembles at the mere thought of exposing his true self again, if there is anything there anymore, if there is anything to be saved anymore.

“Sorry, mate. I need a breather, but I don’t want to be alone.” Karlach breaks his train of thoughts with those simple words. She motions to lay down on the grass, nearby his tent and in his general presence.

“Who said you had my permission?” He asks, a bit annoyed with the newfound company that invited herself into his brooding space.

She chuckles again, a bit more sad now, as if to show once again that his choice is the one that will isolate him. Astarion knows that his actions are not those of someone who will be trusted, liked or cherished, but maybe he wants that and maybe he deserves that. If he doesn’t trust those he travel with, it’s more than natural they will return the same energy back at him, but for now he is exhausted of the pretense and the faking.

Only for tonight, he wishes he could linger in his hurt.

“C’mon! I will be silent as a mouse, promise!” She says, in that whine she usually uses the moment she wants something. Astarion heard it before, when she asks not to be left alone at camp or when she wishes to have one more ration of food before going to sleep. It is always about something harmless, inoffensive whether she gets it or not. She is not selfish, or demanding, but always wanting.

And what can he answer? Can he say no? He considers the options; as if he isn’t already in a precarious situation as a spawn, as if she wouldn’t be favored if it came to the point of being chosen, as if there is much more for him to lose and be left alone to fight whatever it is they need to go against from now on. He cannot have her upset with him, he chooses.

“Alright. Alright. But give me my space and my silence, darling.”

The only answer he gets is an excited, low little laugh that stays in the air long after it left Karlach’s lips. She first kneels down, just to lay back on the fresh grass, as her skin burns and warms up like it usually does. Astarion cannot help but let his eyes wander towards the tiefling after a few seconds, finding her with her eyes filled with stars and a smile on her face.

It is odd, the way the light played and reflected on her content features. The way the stars were bright, small and delicate inside of her and the way her eyes are so lively, drifting from one point to another, following imaginary patterns in the sky.

Astarion doesn’t know what it is, though, that pushes him to ask, “Is it that interesting?”

Karlach turns hear head towards him, surprised. She makes a confused noise as if to ask why he is talking to her, then she grins big and toothy, and answers with a light teasing, “So you don’t want me to talk, but ask me things anyway?”

Astarion is about to tell her to nevermind the question, to simply continue as she is doing, and he looks ahead as he resolves to avoid even thinking about her. But before he can act all puffy about it, Karlach looks back at the sky and sighs, “The stars are just so beautiful. I missed them.”

Astarion stays silent.

He raises his eyes to look over the dark expanse of the night sky, with stars dotting the black and blue with their intense light. The moon, hanging high, shines down into the nearby mirror of water and dances on the surface. Astarion has seen this sight so many times, as the night is all he has ever known in the last centuries, but tonight it’s different.

Tonight, even if with fear in his heart, Astarion walks these lands a free man without the worry of having to return home with a victim or to face some sort of torture. Tonight, the stars are witnessing his autonomy from a power he couldn’t oppose before, but now is merely a memory that lives miles away and won’t reach him easily.

Tonight, he is with people who profess to care for him. It is difficult to understand, to believe and to learn, but Karlach herself roars and acknowledges her immense need for affection and, in doing so, admits her care for others. Astarion can’t even attempt to seduce her, easy as it would be, because that body burns hot like the hells.

A funny thought, one he voices, “They look even more beautiful in your eyes, darling.”

If he cannot seduce her with physical affection, he can attempt to test the waters and do so with sweet nothings whispered as close as possible without harming himself. He sees her giggle at the compliment, he is sure the movement of her arm was supposed to be a light shove, but she rethinks before he is burnt, and her limb simply lays in the space between the two of them.

The gentle warmth coming from her hand, if he didn’t know better he is almost tempted to take it in his cold, dead ones to hold and seep into his flesh. He wonders how it is, to burn from the inside, and to have no beating heart. He smirks both for the reaction he got from her, and because of that bitter thought; his heart beats no more, he is pretty sure. If it does, it’s because of no natural cause.

But Karlach adores and loves, with all her soul, still. Despite the lack of heart, she is kind and sunny like a hot summer day, one you will curse for the heat but will miss once snow starts to settle on the streets. He still has a soul, doesn’t he? No one can take that one away from him.

Could he love and rejoice in the company of someone else, could he learn to enjoy his freedom like Karlach does, despite the years of constant torture weighting on both of them?

He cannot be anchored to the past, he thinks. If he wants to feel this soul wiggle and be moved, he cannot stay where it hurts and freezes. He needs a hot summer day to enjoy after a long, cold winter without sun.

And just as those thoughts start to crowd his mind, Karlach jumps on her feet and stretches her limbs, announcing, “Alright, mate. I’m gonna get something to drink, want any?”

For now, Astarion decides, he wants to get close the only way he knows how. For now, he touches known territory and he will see, eventually, if something new can grow from this sun that decided to revolve around him by chance.

“Bring me some wine, will you? And come back to talk with me, I think I need the company.” He smiles, seductive. Karlach blinks at the suggestion, but she laughs and tells him she will be back soon.

Astarion looks up, at the night sky.

The stars shine bright, lonely, but perhaps there is beauty even in things one knows already, if watched with new eyes.

Random Mountain Encounters (1d100)

(More Random Encounters on Tuesdays! If you like my work, consider supporting me by leaving a tip at my Ko-Fi Page! Image credit: x)

An interesting challenge, but overall I think a successful one! Here are my Random Mountain Encounters (#1-5). Try them out in your campaign and let me know how it goes! Check out all my Other Encounters! See you next week for Desert Encounters!

[1] A metal shack shimmers in the light, inside you discover a hideaway for Ice Gnome Guards. They are playing cards and are willing to make bets with anybody [2] It is migration season, thousands of goats are making their way up the mountain. To pass through them is truly a foolish task [3] The remains of an abandoned city lies quietly in a valley between two great mountains. Evidence for the city’s collapse is not well hidden and perhaps even a bit devious in nature [4] Rumors say at the very top of the mountain lies a golden egg. Yes you heard me right, an egg made of gold. I don’t know who laid it so don’t ask! [5] Friendly Stone Golems patrol the mountains in order to help smaller beings climb to the top. They cannot speak and often throw giant boulders for fun. This can be lead to serious misunderstandings of course [6] All of the mountain peaks are covered in snow, all but one. The odd one out is home to a dormant volcano that is home to a civilization of merfolk. Yeah, I don’t understand it either [7] Birds in these cliffs have grown to the size of lions due to their lack of competition when it comes to hunting prey. They are intelligent and offer wisdom or mockery depending on their mood [8] You discover the cavern of a ghoulish green furred beast that is plotting to attack a nearby town and ruin their festival. This information is easy to discover as there are plans strewn about all over the place [9] Nearby two Ancient Dragons loudly argue over a borrowed book completely unaware of your party’s existence [10] There is a dimensional rift cracking through the stone of the mountain range, gravity occasionally reverses, spontaneous magic effects occur, and otherworldly beings appear without warning [11] A dedicated chef and their protégé are hunting a Yeti. The meat is said to be a delicacy. The chef will offer a grand reward to the party if they choose to assist them. Perhaps you may even be invited to dine with the Monarch who ordered it [12] You discover bodies encased in ice scattered around the path. Was this an accident or an attack? Better be careful either way [13] KABOOM! An explosion in the distance as two high level adventurers duke it out. Have them inspire your players or potentially even guide them [14] A ski resort operates on a hidden slope, it is run by Goblins who desire rare metals [15] Hidden among the sparse trees and shrubbery are large ice cocoons freshly opened [16] Shit! A near fatal slip leads to the discovery of an abandoned mineshaft within a deep ravine [17] Harpies. Just some classic Harpy encounters. They want to either eat the party or eat their rations [18] The mouth of a cavern sings sweetly, it’s quiet but insistent and impossible to ignore. Choose a random player, they are hypnotized by the sound [19] After a long night’s rest the party discover they have been separated mysteriously [20] A lone monk sits peacefully atop of the peaks. They claim to have mastered the art of reversing time [21] Howling can be heard every few hours. The source of this terrifying scream can be traced to a Dragonborn Barbarian who refuses to wear a shirt. They believe shouting into the heavens will bring them closer to the spirit of the planet [22] Due to a magical accident hundreds of years ago the mountains radiate elemental energy. Random combustion is not uncommon and neither are Elementals [23] An infectious fungus is spreading across the mountain peaks. If it is not stopped, it will grow to cover the entire range and beyond [24] Broom race season has just begun! Witches and Wizards are flying all around the place without any concern for nature or the party. Watch out for Fireballs! [25] Awoken from sleep, an eager creature excitedly attempts to pass on words of wisdom to travelers. They get a little too excited and start panicking when trying to deliver their speech [26] In the middle of the night a bear has dug into the party’s packs and has stolen the most hilarious item possible. Be it drugs or someone’s underwear. Perhaps both? Fuck, please let it be both [27] Animated objects have escaped from a neglectful master and have built a small but pitiful society. Surely a new home would suit them better [28] Buried deep within the mountain lies an army of undead, your players happen upon this after a small collapse [29] Shattered statues of gold litter the snow, neglected by time. They appear to be adventurers rumored to have gone missing a few months before [30] These alps are home to unpredictable creatures known as Shadows. They are seemingly intelligent but often attack without warning. Your party discovers a village [31] A powerful spirit guardian visits the party and attempts to lead them to their destination. They either take on the form of a four headed deer or a small white fox [32] It’s finally time. Choose one of your players at random, their bag is actually a Mimic. They’ve been keeping quiet for quite some time, but decide it’s finally time to make their escape [33] Atop the highest peak is a pool of clean spring water. Rumors say that those who drink from it will find their true love within a week. It is a well sought after ingredient for potion making [34] Atop the highest peak is a pool of black liquid. Rumors say that those who drink from it have visions of the future. It is a well sought after ingredient for potion making [35] Medicinal herbs grow all around the sierra, they are believed to be able to cure any illness. But they are guarded by poisonous ants who use it to feed their queen [36] Every few weeks a strange light emanates from the mountains in the dead of night [37] Abandoned minecart rails run through entire range and can offer a quicker, but more dangerous, way to travel [38] A stoic Troll lives near the base of the mountain, they know where the party needs to go to finish their quest. But they will only give directions if they can make the beast laugh. They haven’t laughed in almost a century (This can either be really difficult or really easy to achieve) [39] Tireless exploration has lead your party to the cave of a horrendous beast. Describe it in the most haunting and visceral way possible. That way, when they discover it’s a Pokémon they will probably threaten to fire you as their Dungeon Master but it’ll be so worth it [40] Nomadic Bards offer a detour through the mountains. They claim to know a, “Secret Tunnel” [41] Explorers stumble out of a crypt, at first glance they seem to be wounded but the truth is much worse… [42] Intricate traps litter the mountainside to the point of it being ridiculous! The trappers are actually really enthusiastic Cryptid Hunters [43] Shield surfing you say? The God of shield surfing challenges the party to a race offering valuable treasure if they win [44] Within the mountain is a dwarven forge and after a serious accident molten metals begin exploding out from the natural vents and caves. Watch your step! [45] At the base of the mountain lies a restaurant known as, “The Lost Souls Cafe.” It is run by disguised demon lords who love to gamble souls for rare rewards. The bartender quietly warns all who enter to leave before it is too late [46] Beautiful crystals line hard to reach cliffs. If your players are fortunate enough to collect some they will unfortunately discover it begins growing on exposed skin [47] A giant demon known as the Nurikabe blocks the path, it is nearly impossible to pass without employing magic or trickery [48] Rock insects have infested the entire range. Their camouflage allows them to be nearly invisible, watch your step of face their wrath [49] Wounded and dying of exposure, a warrior lies slumped in a pile of snow. She is incredibly strong and is hunting a Warlock who they have sworn to kill. Or perhaps, the person they are hunting is a villain your party has met before [50] Strong winds threaten to force the party off the side of the mountain. Is it the wrath of nature or perhaps a supernatural entity? [51] A squadron of patrolling Samurai ride upon Velociraptors. They are not friendly [52] One of the player’s voices echoes loudly in the valley. The strange thing is, the voice echoes even without any words being spoken [53] The mountains are alive and have large wounds. If the party isn’t careful they may they will face deadly consequences. But the opposite is also true, if the party are able to heal the wounds the mountains may help them on their journey [54] Fairies dance around a roaring waterfall. They act friendly and offer to heal the party, but beware.. They like to trick people into taking leaps of faith [55] Numerous quarries line the mountain range. Villages are littered throughout, all of them are hanging upside down like stalactites [56] A never ending fire burns within a crater. Travelers often come here to collect the flame [57] The only effective means of travel is a long winding road that forces the party to walk in a single file line. It is not much of an issue until something decides to attack [58] Deep within the blizzarding alps a lone peak is laced with flames. It is home to an ancient Dragon and a Sorcerer who worships and protects their master [59] Roll for which player who is going to be kidnapped by a Giant. Have fun! [60] A range of glass mountains shine brilliantly in the light. They were discovered a few days before replacing a large portion of the western coast. Their reason for existing is unknown [61] ZAP! A young spunky witch has accidentally shrunk the party. In a panic she puts them in a pocket dimension within her walking dresser companion. Surely things will be fine, right? [62] Out of nowhere bump into an invisible object. While trying to investigate they may discover a door that leads to an abandoned magical college. Rare magical treasure can be found within but something seems to have made this place their new home… [63] Clouds swirl around the peak, they are dense and have an almost unnatural appearance to them, as if they were stairs leading up to the heavens [64] Avalanche! The party are now trapped in a monster’s den. For a more dramatic challenge, all but one player is unconscious [65] A sickly looking child is wandering alone in the cold, they speak incoherent gibberish. If the party help this child and let them travel along, after reaching a safe destination they will reveal themselves as a spirit of the mountain, rewarding the party with blessings or treasure [66] The mountain pass is long but not too difficult to traverse. However, this specific path is looping over and over again without end [67] Flail Snails emerge from the mountain. They are dangerous but can be easily tamed [68] A meteor blasts through the summit, the debris rains down upon the party. It is quite deadly if they are hit. The crater is smoking and is home to a new mysterious plant [69] Hidden above are small hornet’s nests, be careful not to disturb them for the main hive is home to giant hornets who are not afraid of fighting [70] Within the rubble of a destroyed altar rests a tome with the title, “Hand of Fate” [71] Broken down on the road, a snobby noble offers to pay the party a large sum of money to help the noble and their servants to an important meeting. It takes place in a week and is important in solving interspecies relations [72] Smoke blows up from a dozen chimneys atop a bizarrely shaped house. It is home to a shy alchemist who collects rare materials from the alps [73] While climbing the mountain, the hard rocky surface suddenly begins cracking and weakening as the surface has turned into chocolate [74] Clockwork animals occupy the area. They act like regular animals… All except for Archimedes the glitchy owl. A loud creature that claims to have been created by a space demon [75] Civilians are traveling all throughout the mountain pass. With all of their belongings they venture toward a developing city in the valley. It’s a great/safe place to make new connections [76] Civilians are traveling all throughout the mountain pass. They claim it is a great land of opportunity and wealth, but something much more sinister is afoot [77] Select a random Goosebumps book, this is the new monster/obstacle the players must face [78] Spider webbing covers the entrance to a cave. Within the webs a sign reads, “Fortune readings in exchange for beautiful cups or tankards.” Sounds trustworthy enough [79] You discover a hamlet constructed out of trash and broken tools. Aloft in this pile of garbage, a Goblin’s eye cracks open. “Come have a look. One gob’s trash is another gob’s treasure.” They are a bit of con-gob so be quite careful [80] A camp of miners ask your party to sit down and join them for drinks. They are fascinated by the life of adventure your party leads [81] Poisonous mist swirls around the sierra, be careful not to lose consciousness while it seeps through your skin [82] Built into the side of the jagged stone, a Monk Temple sits peacefully amidst the storm [83] Bound to the mountain, a hellish warrior slaughters anyone who enters their domain. They are horrendously powerful and would wipe out any unsuspecting low-level party [84] Hosting a prestigious singing competition, a Purple Dragon with a tie and top hat invites all to watch this once in a lifetime event. Gods, Spirits, Giants, Beholders, etc.. are all participants [85] A campfire burns brightly on the side of the road, no one is around. Food is roasting, bottles left unopened, treasure left untouched. Do you search for those who set up this camp or take it for yourselves? [86] The party stumbles upon a murder scene and are framed for the crime by corrupt guards who came to investigate the death of a famous hero. The situation seems far too convenient [87] Frozen in ice a monstrous beast is slowly thawing, it’s power is equal to that of a Tarrasque but it does have the dumbest name in the world [88] Mimics as large as houses, disguised as, you guessed it. Houses. They lie in wait, hidden in plain sight among other buildings of an abandoned city. A storm is brewing and the party needs to take shelter. Hopefully they don’t wander into the wrong house [89] Introduce a new or reoccurring cult from your campaign. One of the members is infusing with a demon and will become a powerful antagonist that will continue to be a problem for the players in the campaign [90] The world’s worst rogue has been stalking the party. They want to kill the party or go on an adventure. The choice is yours, but they HAVE to be lovable. A new child to adopt [91] “Oi! You’ve come fer blood, haven’t you?” You are handed a flyer for a Colosseum nearby [92] A misguided entrepreneur has built their new Fast Food restaurant on a summit. They got the place for cheap but business is… Not ideal [93] Throw a Legend of Zelda boss at the players! Some suggestions: Bongo Bongo, Volvagia, Stallord, Stone Talus, Lynel [94] Struck with lightning, an unlucky party member’s eyes begin to glow as they have gained newfound powers. They’ve been selected by a powerful deity to carry out a prophecy [95] A deserted alchemy lab wanders the wilderness, it is sentient and left without a purpose [96] Thrown from the top of the mountain, a wooden chest filled with cursed magic items has been disposed of, never to be found again. Well until you rolled this random encounter [97] The party meets a high level party of badasses. They are kind of jerks and act as secondary antagonists on this journey up or through the range [98] Treasure map! No tricks, no traps. Just some sick loot [99] Let’s try out a traditional encounter. Find a cool monster (preferably displaced) and let the party fight it or perhaps help calm it down and lead it somewhere safe [100] Hidden away from the rest of the world, an observatory keeps track of planetary movement, stars, and unusual phenomenon. The observatory is run by a secret organization that watches over the world. Grand secrets reside within the somber halls

Rebirth & Pyrrhic for @cursedbecanaan

They should have stopped. They should have retreated. Looking back on it, it was all for not anyway. The stupid little planet was slowly, ever so slowly, coming back to life, a process of rebirth which their people had never seen before. And if the planet was resilient, that said nothing for it’s people.

Human. The word sent shivers down the spines of many nowadays, and their race, once proud and noble warriors were shamed across the galaxy, held accountable for ‘poking the dragon.’ Fitting that the humans would have a phrase for that.  

They had done it though! A little over a century ago they had decimated the planet, leveled it’s buildings, burned it’s forests, and eradicated it’s people. But the casualties on their side had been high, higher than in any war they had yet fought. The Humans, they had just kept coming, even those untrained and unprepared for battle had rallied against them. Millions had died, on both sides, and they had lost so many great leaders at the hands of those small, soft, wretched creatures. 

Oh they had won, in the end. But at what cost?

After the battle, after everything was destroyed, there had been no feast, no celebration. Their scholars had documented all historical and literary works as was tradition [the race may be gone but that didn’t mean their culture needed to be. More often than not, there were things they could learn, use against others] but it was not with self-satisfaction. Only resentment at having to preserve the culture of the creatures who had almost destroyed them.

As they cataloged, they had come across a word [Humans, so focused on language and names] which filled them with horror. That these people would even have a word for this kind of event was eerie. And yet again, it was fitting. So they took the name, as they took everything else, and put it in their history. 

The Second Pyrrhic War. 

Now, as though their very destiny was to humiliate and contradict, the Humans were rumored to have come back from the brink of extinction, and under the protection of the Galactic Syndicate no less. The sacrifices, the carnage they had endured at the hands of these beasts, in the end, was still for not. And if there had been one thing they had learned about the Humans during both the fighting and the cataloging, it was that they could not be conquered. There was always those who fought back.

They should have seen it coming.
