Character Sheet commission
Enkelador Duskwhisper
Air Genasi | Monk; Way of the Four Elements
Haaay~
I had so much fun exploring monk's fashion ✨
Enké is a PC from the "Princes of the Apocalypse" campaign I'm running as DM.
Love him, he's our comic relief, and despite Monk's bad reputation in the D&D classes meta, he's dealing fat damages for the win 😎

Finished a long running campaign last night.
Thira
My level 20 monk
Made it to the end and got to live out a long and love filled life. She got her husband, her wife, and her adopted son... And she got to greet a friend in the afterlife...
She wouldn’t change a thing about her life and her choices.

Tonight, during Dungeons and Dragons:
For context, a while ago, our tiefling monk got his hands on some...uh...illicit drugs and a set of bombs used for mining. He's been carrying the bombs and drugs for around 4 or 5 sessions.
Last session, the monk, human fighter, and my character, a minotaur druid, got into a spot of trouble during what should have been an easy, in-and-out job, and wound up killing an ogre dockworker. Our fighter unsuccessfully tried to frame the dock foreman for the crime (the foreman was a dick who totally deserved it), but got caught LITERALLY red handed, as there was still blood on his hands.
So, tonight's session, our cleric returned from his hiatus and got filled in on what happened. We were waiting for a letter, so the cleric thought it would be best to lie low in the city for a bit.
Then we see the bounty.
A bounty for the "Zoltan Gang" (Zoltan being the name of our fighter), with a perfect illustration of the fighter's face on it. My druid and the monk were listed as well, but their pictures weren't nearly as accurate. The fighter panics and states that we need to leave town now, so we begin making preparations to go.
Here's the problem: the entrance gates to the city are all guarded, with checkpoints looking for contraband. And presumably criminals.
Our fighter is wanted for murder.
And the monk has drugs and bombs.
Drugs and bombs he almost got arrested with when we ENTERED the city.
So, the monk comes up with a plan.
He wraps the drugs and bombs up so that they resemble a bento box, and asks me to smuggle them out. By this point, I was already a hawk, flying above and watching out for guards so we could get Zoltan out safely. The monk, who can communicate telepathically, tells me to take the bag and make it look like an animal just stole some dude's lunch.
I do so.
The monk then proceeds to go a bit overboard on the acting and goes, "Oh, no, a bird stole my lunch!" thus drawing attention.
A gate guard, trying to be helpful, SHOOTS ME DOWN.
I pop back into minotaur form, tumble over the outer wall, and land in the moat surrounding the city.
The guards were so distracted by a bird turning into a bull that Zoltan was able to get out of the city. But now all eyes are on me.
And I'm now in possession of the drugs and bombs.
So I panic and turn into a large trout, dragging the bag with me into the water and swimming around to the complete opposite side of the city from my friends, while guards go on high alert for a shape-shifting bird-bull-trout. I wind up jumping a levy into a river, get close to some docks where I'm able to pop back into my minotaur form, and get on dry land.
Except.
It's the dock where we killed the ogre last session.
Cue anxiety attack as my nearly 8' tall druid boi tries to remain as inconspicuous as possible while moving across the docks. I made it! But I was back in the city. With bombs. And drugs. And all my friends outside.
Luckily the cleric got back in and was able to find me, but while I was more than willing to leave the bag at this point, the cleric didn't just want to leave bombs in the middle of a city, "where any 5 year old could get hold of it" (valid, honestly).
So, we try the plan again (I'd been in the city long enough to constitute a short rest), and I'm shot at AGAIN. Luckily this one missed.
We did find out later that the bombs no longer worked after getting wet, so we wound up leaving them behind anyway.
So, what should have been an easy walk out of the city took up almost an hour of the session, and it was HILARIOUS.
