My partner and I were talking and honestly I can’t get it out of my head lol
But our current party/important NPCs who are usually with us in our DnD/VTM Hybrid campaign could ABSOLUTELY NOT be used for Curse of Strahd under any circumstances (don’t worry, we have a totally different Curse of Strahd party, which I’m eagerly waiting to DM)
But yeah, SEVERAL of the NPCs we’re very close to are 400+ year old vampires, some with god-like abilities; and one of them is basically everyone’s dad, while another is a little shit(affectionate). If this group were in CoS WITHOUT our beloved Vampires, we wouldn’t be able to take Strahd seriously because he’s not much older than our besties. “I am The Ancient, I am The Land, I a-” “Yo have you ever met Trevor and Blake?” (Especially since Trevor and Blake are Ravnos, so they share similar theming as The Vistani).
If we DID bring our Vampires with us, Strahd would be in absolute misery. Trevor is even less killable than STRAHD is(Trevor can regenerate if there is even a single ATOM of himself left), and Blake just became an apocalyptic level character because of a unique way in which we have fucked up. AND ON TOP OF THAT THEY’RE BOTH VERY MODERN CHARACTERS, TREVOR FLOATS AROUND READING MANGA, TREVOR’S IN A COVERBAND AND BLAKE IS A ROCKSTAR. They’d ruin Strahd’s entire aesthetic and he’d be so mad lol. (They’re also both known to hop dimensions for fun, so it’s not even unlikely that they may have MET)
On TOP of that, Meliora is not allowed within hearing distance of Strahd, because she’s already (ACCIDENTALLY ON MY PART AND THE DM’S, IT JUST KIND OF HAPPENED) Therapized and befriended at least one potential BBEG in our campaign(a Disgraced Former General of Hell, Mordekhesh); so she would completely accidentally speed run the “Strahd Gets Help” secret ending, and we’d need a new BBEG lmao

Part #42
beginning / previous / next
Моя группа ВК, история на русском.
Amazing lot by @anaria-ithil
Klaus… Tyrael: Klaus, wake up! Are you alive? Vianora: We've been looking for you for a long time. What happened? You disappeared so unexpectedly. Dorian: I warned you. A thick fog had risen, you could barely see your feet. Balasar: And then the guardians of this place rebelled. Or former adventurers. It was a glorious battle, you missed everything. Klaus: Damn, was it just a dream? How much time has passed? Balasar: Soon dawn. We've been looking for you all night. Tyrael: Don't worry. We managed to find several valuable items, gems and a couple of decorations among the ruins. Balasar: The former owners don't need them anyway, but we can sell them for a good price. Balasar: The undead are laid to rest after performing a small ritual. We have nothing to worry about in the near future. Although, I'm sure this place will replenish its supply of "guardians" in the near future. The energy in the ruins is nasty, the soil is saturated with the smell of death. Hold on buddy, you don't look well. Klaus: Disgusting. Terrible. I missed all the fun. Although I didn't get bored. Dorian: No visible damage. However, magic does not emanate from him in the usual way. He will lie down for a couple of days and again he will yell songs at the top of his lungs. Vianora: Poor fellow, how did he get here? Lost consciousness almost at the very exit from the ruins. It doesn't look like he's been attacked. Klaus: I feel like I've been drinking dwarven mead all night long. Tyrael: Visually, you fit this description. Vianora: Damn it, I don't mind drinking something myself to keep warm. Tyrael: I told you to take the cloak. Klaus: On a night like this, only my warm hugs and passionate kisses, woven in a dance, warm… Tyrael: I see you're fine as long as you keep your mouth shut.

OOC rambles / campaign stuff
Tumblr media
our campaign is on an indifinite hiatus due to conflicting schedules (among other things) to to cope with the fact that i am dying to play i figured i'd go ahead and drop some notes about the campaign so far and cahya's experiences, thoughts, and other things i just wanna note before i forget even more of what we've encountered. also ngl partly making this solely so i have something to actually be a place holder in my campaign notes tag cause i'm trying to compile a masterlist lol
✧ currently playing the lost mines of phandelver but our dm's are adding a lot of personalization to it with the plans to do our own thing as soon as we finish that part of the story
✧ cahya was just sorta wandering around the sword coast by himself before he joined the party that we're now playing in our campaign, attempting to remain as undercover as possible from solvekh/the ring leader while also trying to obtain knowledge about his arcane and bardic abilities (which is mainly a point since we started this campaign at lvl 1 and are still only lvl 2. outside of the campaign setting, i see him as a level 4-6 bard, but i digress)
✧ the main reason Cahya joined the party was the promise of gold and a curiosity over what exactly it is that Gundren has found. he figured he could potentially learn of some useful lore/information, or at least he could say he was a key figure in any local gossip about the event. once he realized Arezah was a part of the party though, he felt more inclined to take it seriously and stick around, given it was the first time they had been truly reunited after the loss of Zholl
✧ homeboy failed nearly every single roll in our first combat EXCEPT for the final blow and 10000% felt some kinda way about it which was only exasperated by his party's insistence that he "did a good job" (my guy does not like pity, and will be cringing over the exchange that went down there for a while lmao)
✧ idiot man just had to pick up a random, seemingly useless little frog statue with golden gems for eyes. now he's coughing up LITERAL FUCKING FROGS and Arezah is simply making jokes about it and no one but him seems disturbed by this. is he gonna get rid of the frog statue tho? prolly not. why would that have anything to do with it, afterall?
✧ in true bard fashion he succesfully convinced an innkeeper that he is the sibling of one of our half-elfs. him. a 6'4 (6'7" if we include horns), indigo tiefling old man and bellamy, a tiny, 5'0 half-elf cleric who's only similarity is that she has white hair and his his silver, nearly white. genuinely had that innkeep rethinking her whole life and questioning her biases which i am still laughing about. however that did not help us when it came to preventing the half-elfs from being kidnapped. whoopsies.
✧ on that note, he also spent a solid like 15 minutes just. rolling around in a mud hole for no reason. which Bellamy also joined him for, and by the time they got to the inn, he was able to get them both a bath for free simply from being so filthy that the innkeeper was practically begging them to bathe.
✧ also grown very protective and fond of Bellamy (has no idea that they've met before but after she is kidnapped, our rouge Balasar found her hairclip on the floor and brought it to Cahya... a hairclip he recognized immediately as an accessory he often wore during his time in Solvekh in his youth. he is completely thrown off by this and terrified about the implications of it, and why Bellamy of all people has it)
✧ after helping an NPC named Silvdar escape from the first battle, he gave the dude his cloak and the rest of our party who had only seen him draped in a shawl at this point had the jarring realization that he is, in fact, ripped as fuck and sorta hot LMAO everyone was a bit discombobulated by it and according to our dm's Silvdar has an attraction to him which is just. hilarious to me.
trying to remember more but very little is coming to me atm. tis the curse of not taking proper notes during sessions. hopefully by the time we return to playing i have a better notetaking system for during the actual game. i'm usually such a note-taking kinda person but i struggle when playing with note taking while trying to keep up with the story/combat and roleplaying! think i might have to use a different note taking system somehow, or maybe dedicate a specific journal/notebook to it... for now i am simply wallowing in the fact that i desperately want to play again and am sad as fuck bc i have no idea when that will be oTL
looks like i'll just have to start really posting my solo work for him here in the meantime heheheheh *rubs my hands together like an evil little fly*

Chapter Twenty-Two
Dunglorrin Torune
1485 DR / Day 32
Ghohlbrorn's Lair, Gracklstugh
"No, no, no! Zelyra, you are still pronouncing it wrong. I said, good morning, and you just responded with the equivalent of, I will pee on your leg!" Prince Derendil said with a heavy sigh.
Kazimir and Eldeth immediately exploded into howling laughter as Zelyra dropped her head into her hands. The druid's face instantly turned bright red. "Why is this so hard?" she groaned. "I picked up on Druidic much easier than this!"
"How old were you when you learned Druidic?" Kazimir asked.
"Twelve," Zelyra answered truthfully.
The tiefling snapped his fingers. "They say learning new languages is easier when you're still young. The older you get, the harder it is to rewire your brain with new ways of thinking," he said.
"Don't feel bad, Zelyra. I'm struggling too. We can't all be geniuses like the grey-one over here," Eldeth said, jabbing her thumb in the wizard's direction.
Kazimir stuck his tongue between his lips and blew a raspberry at her.

🙏✝️13 DE OUTUBRO✝️🙏
🙏✝️Beata Alexandrina Maria da Costa: Virgindade Preservada✝️🙏
✝️Origens✝️
Alexandrina Maria da Costa nasceu em Balasar, Póvoa de Varzim, Arquidiocese de Braga, no dia 30 de março de 1904. Foi batizada no dia 2 de abril, um Sábado Santo. Foi educada cristãmente pela mãe, junto com a irmã Deolinda. Alexandrina viveu em casa até aos 7 anos. Depois, foi para uma pensão dum marceneiro na Póvoa de Varzim, a fim de frequentar a escola primária que não existia em Balasar. Fez a primeira comunhão na sua terra natal, em 1911, e, no ano seguinte, recebeu o sacramento da Crisma pelo Bispo do Porto.
Passados 18 meses, voltou a Balasar e foi morar com a mãe e a irmã na localidade do “Calvario”, onde irá permanecer até a morte.
✝️Infância✝️
Robusta de constituição física, começou a trabalhar nos campos, equiparando-se aos homens e a ganhar o mesmo que eles. A sua infância foi muito viva: dotada de temperamento feliz e comunicativo, era muito querida pelas colegas. Aos 12 anos, porém, adoeceu: uma grave infecção (uma febre tifoide, talvez) colocou-a quase à morte. Superou a doença, mas a sua saúde ficou abalada para sempre.
✝️Juventude✝️
Aos 14 anos aconteceu um fato que seria decisivo para a sua vida. Era Sábado Santo de 1918, e, nesse dia, ela, a irmã Deolinda e mais uma mocinha aprendiz estavam a trabalhar de costura, quando perceberam que três homens tentavam entrar na sala onde se encontravam. Embora estivessem fechadas, os três homens forçaram as portas e conseguiram entrar.
✝️Beata Alexandrina Maria da Costa: Virgindade Preservada
Conservação de sua Pureza✝️
Alexandrina, para salvar a sua pureza ameaçada, não hesitou em atirar-se pela janela, de uma altura de quatro metros. As consequências foram terríveis, embora não imediatas. De fato, as várias visitas médicas a que foi sucessivamente submetida diagnosticaram, cada vez com maior clareza, um fato irreversível.
✝️Início do Sofrimento✝️
Até os 19 anos, pôde ainda arrastar-se até a igreja, onde gostava de ficar recolhida, com grande admiração das pessoas. A paralisia foi avançando cada vez mais, até que as dores se tornaram insuportáveis; as articulações perderam qualquer movimento; e ela ficou completamente paralisada. Era o dia 14 de abril de 1925 quando a Beata Alexandrina Maria da Costa ficou definitivamente de cama. Ali haveria de passar os restantes 30 anos de sua vida.
“Jesus, você é um prisioneiro no Tabernáculo e eu estou em minha cama por sua vontade. Faremos companhia.” (Beata Alexandrina Maria da Costa)
Vocação
Até 1928 não deixou de pedir a Deus, por intercessão de Nossa Senhora, a graça da cura, prometendo que se sarasse partiria para as missões. Depois, compreendeu que a sua vocação era o sofrimento. Abraçou-a prontamente.
São desse período os primeiros fenômenos místicos: Alexandrina iniciou uma vida de grande união com Cristo nos Tabernáculos, por meio de Nossa Senhora. Quanto mais clara se tornava a sua vocação de vítima, tanto mais crescia nela o amor ao sofrimento. Comprometeu-se com voto a fazer sempre o que fosse mais perfeito.
✝️A Consagração do mundo ao Coração Imaculado de Maria✝️
Desde 1934, orientada espiritualmente por um padre jesuíta, passou a escrever tudo quanto lhe dizia Jesus, durante seus êxtases contemplativos. Em 1936, segundo ela, por ordem de Jesus, pediu ao Papa a consagração do mundo ao Coração Imaculado de Maria. O pedido foi renovado várias vezes até 1941, quando, então, Alexandrina parou de escrever ao Papa e também em seu diário. A partir de 27 de março de 1942, deixou de alimentar-se, vivendo exclusivamente da eucaristia. No ano seguinte, passou a ser estudada por uma junta médica.
✝️O diário✝️
Em 1944, seu novo diretor espiritual, um padre salesiano, após constatar a profundidade espiritual a que tinha chegado, animou Alexandrina a voltar a ditar o seu diário; o que ela fez até a morte. No mesmo ano ela se inscreveu na União dos Cooperadores Salesianos, querendo colaborar com o seu sofrimento e as suas orações para a salvação das almas, sobretudo os jovens. Atraídas pela fama de santidade, muitas pessoas vindas de longe buscavam os conselhos da “rosa branca de Jesus”, como era também chamada pelos fiéis, que já veneravam em vida a “santinha de Balazar”.
✝️Vivia em seu corpo as dores da Paixão✝️
✝️A Paixão✝️
De sexta-feira, 3 de Outubro de 1938 a 24 de Março de 1942, ou seja por 182 vezes, viveu, em todas as sextas-feiras, os sofrimentos da Paixão: Alexandrina, superando o estado habitual de paralisia, descia da cama e com movimentos e gestos, acompanhados de angustiantes dores, repetia, por três horas e meia, os diversos momentos da Via Crucis.
✝️Páscoa✝️
Em 1950, Alexandrina comemora os 25 anos de sua imobilidade. Em 7 de janeiro de 1955, foi anunciado que este seria o ano de sua morte. No dia 12 de outubro, quis receber a unção dos enfermos. No dia 13 de outubro, aniversário da última aparição de Nossa Senhora em Fátima, ela foi ouvida exclamando: “Estou feliz, porque vou para o céu”. Às 19h30 ele faleceu.
✝️Via de Santificação✝️
Foi beatificada por João Paulo II, no Terceiro Domingo da Páscoa, 25 de abril de 2004. Durante a celebração eucarística, ocorreu a beatificação de seis pessoas, o presbítero Augustus Czartoryski; e quatro monjas: Laura Montoya, Maria Guadalupe García Zavala, Nemesia Valle, Eusebia Palomino Yenes; e a leiga, Alexandrina Maria da Costa, que hoje celebramos.
🙏✝️Minha oração✝️🙏
“Grande devota de Eucaristia, soubeste se alimentar e viver apenas de Jesus, ajudai-nos a não perder a fé neste sacramento e amá-lo com todas as nossas forças assim como tu fizeste. Que a Eucaristia seja o sentido da nossa vida. Amém. ”
🙏✝️Beata Alexandrina Maria da Costa, rogai por nós!✝️🙏

7 and 9 for Meliora!
Thank you so much for asking!!! I love taking about my sweet Meliora, and these questions are very interesting.
Putting this under a readmore because it’s going to be a bit long
7: Do they have any living relatives? If they do, which one do they like the least, and why?
Mel has a LOT of living relatives, having grown up in a sort of Commune, primarily populated by Tieflings, but also other half “Monstrous” races. In her culture, pretty much everyone is either a cousin, aunt, or uncle-blood relation be damned. She was raised with a whole lot of love and care, and overall had a very happy childhood(my wish fulfillment character lol).
That being said, the “Relative” she likes the least by default, would be her biological father, who she either hasn’t met, or can’t remember meeting (I left it up the the DM whether her mother told her the truth or not, to leave it a bit open ended if he needed more thread with which to tie plots). As far as Mel’s mother has told her, her father was a human nobleman for whom she worked as a servant. He was a bit of an airhead, but pretty to look at, and Mel was conceived during their long-term affair. Her father was thrilled by the news, and went on and on about plans for his little “Demon Princess”. Mel’s mother knew that, regardless of his intentions, Meliora would end up being treated more as an Exotic Pet than a Noble’s Daughter(and to be honest, Mel’s mother had pity even for human noble girls in their gilded cages); so one night she fled the manor, and took up residence in the commune where Meliora was born.
Mel has no ill will toward her father; but she really couldn’t care less about him. She has a huge family(ever growing, since she’s be integrated into our Mentor’s family in game), she never missed having a father-many of the children in the commune were missing one or both parents, since it tended to be a refuge for people born/sired by “Monsters”(mostly Tieflings, lots of Half-Orcs and Half-Dragons; either with one of their parents or occasionally both if they were cast out of their home, or even abandoned as babies to be raised by the locals. Some cases were happier-families having moved in purely to raise their child in a more inclusive culture).
9: What’s their biggest fear?
“Goodbyeless Deaths”, and she’s been forced to live this fear more than once. As a Spirit Bard and Necromancer, Mel has spent much of her life aiding in closure between the living and the dead; her ability to speak with the dead allowing her to grant both parties their final goodbyes before the deceased pass on.
It wasn’t until our party was accidentally transported to Earth’s Chicago(it’s a Hybrid DnD/VTM campaign) that Mel met and befriended people who have too little soul to linger after death. Most of our new friends and family are Ravnos Vampires, and Vampires in the VTM universe experience Permanent Death, because their souls are so tattered that they simply fade away without the Vampire’s life force.
Ever since learning of the concept, Mel is terrified of her Vampiric friends dying, since there is no way to say goodbye; no closure to be had.
Long story short, Blake(our mentor) and Cassie(his niece, who he had mostly raised) had their bodies destroyed in a controlled magical ritual performed by Trevor at Blake’s direction(he didn’t clue poor Trevor in on what was meant to happen, so naturally Trevor THOUGHT he killed his own family and was devastated). Their spirits/life force were left intact however, safely housed in their respective instruments(Blake’s Base and Cassie’s Violin).
In the drunken aftermath of a terrible battle, Balasar(half-dragon Cleric PC, Meliora’s Lover) accidentally out of spontaneous fear used Sacred Flame on the Violin; destroying the Lifeforce of Cassie, who had been newly a vampire before losing her body. Naturally, Blake and family attacked Balasar, and in a desperate bid to save his own life, Bal chugged the dragon blood he had been taking shots of to increase his power when necessary(he did not know he was a Half-Dragon; due to amnesia he believed himself a Dragonborn; so he was unaware of the consequences). The resulting boom in his power summoned the disembodied spirit of his father(Dourgothoth, The Creeping Death, who had been secretly preparing Balasar as his new vessel) to him like a beacon. Due to the chronological rift we were currently in however, instead of taking Balasar’s body, Balasar and Dourgothoth were merged into a completely new divine entity.
Meliora however, did not know Balasar was unaware of his origins. Her half-dragon cousins often claimed to be Dragonborn when they traveled outside of the commune, because Half-Dragons are treated more fearfully than Dragonborn in general(half-dragons cannot enter Dragon-Repellent Fields even; mechanically, we had Balasar’s Amnesia make him magically immune to that due to his belief that he was a Dragonborn). Mel assumed Balasar had been lying for a similar reason, and felt it was “Polite” not to bring it up.
This resulted in her belief that Balasar’s actions regarding the Dragon Blood and Cassie’s Death were intentional; and she now believes he was working with Dourgothoth this whole time. Unfortunately, Balasar no longer exists to tell her the truth.
She bristles when people refer to Balasar’s “Death”, because technically he never Died, he simply ceased to be. She often says “If he were simply dead, he wouldn’t be lost to me.”
She can never have any closure about why he did what he did, what his plans were, or if he ever even loved her. That lack of closure is her worst fear come to life.
(I do have a plan for how Mel may eventually be able to bring Cassie back-Cassie being the reincarnation of Gaia, her essence also resides in Dark Gaia, unlike a normal vampiric death-, due to the advanced Thaumaturgy Trevor is teaching her, and a cool new custom power Mel got a couple sessions ago, but I’m not going to have her have the idea IN GAME until she’s trained more with Trevor; have it be a moment of discovery. I’m not trying to speed run the plot lol. Mel is NOT interested in bringing Balasar back, because she fully believes he used her and the party to intentionally merge with his father and become a god; as far as she’s concerned, Balasar is gone and this new thing is the enemy.)

Amazing lot by @anaria-ithil
Tyrael: I don't like these ruins. I feel strong magical vibrations, characteristic of places of Power. It is not for nothing that to this day not a single adventurer has been able to unravel the secrets of this place. Vianora: So we have a chance to be the first to unravel the mystery of this place. Dorian: The main thing is not to forget about caution. The ruins are similar to the elven ones, but they are very ancient. Perhaps they are thousands of years old. Klaus: Don't worry. The ruins are entangled in many rumors and tales, which only increase and embellish over the years. People love to embellish. Believe me, as a bard of the College of Knowledge, I know for sure. Tyrael: In every legend there is a grain of truth, the truth, which should be read between the lines. In the history department at the academy, we often had to deal with such riddles. Balasar: A familiar feeling. Are you sure that there was no temple here at one time? Hmm. Every scale on my body seems to feel the presence of the other side. The fog is clearly unnatural. There was no sign of bad weather when we walked here. But now it's getting colder. And those weird-colored plants. It is curious what kind of power dominates the local ruins. Vianora: The fog is everywhere. The further we go, the thicker the fog becomes. What is it? You heard? Some strange sound, similar either to a creak, or to a painful groan. Suddenly the treasures are guarded by zombies? Or ghouls? Or… who else is found in such places? Dorian: Birds. But there are no signs of their life here. No animals at all. Stay close and watch your step. Don't split up. Dorian: Klaus, keep up. It's easy to get lost in this thick fog. Even darkvision won't help us. Balasar: At least you have it. It would be nice if we could conjure our magical light sources. A little more and I won't see my own tail. Vianora: I can hold your tail so you don't get lost, he-he. Balasar: I'm starting to think you're flirting with me. Klaus: Hey, where did everyone go? It was worth turning away for a minute, as their trail caught cold. Hey! Balasar! Where are you? Klaus: Damn it. Wherever I go, everything around looks the same. Does fornication lead me? Although I'm still a fornicator. But I prefer places that are more comfortable, with a large bed … And warm girlish breasts. And there are no girls, no animals.
