Early DnD Thoughts

Soooo its early, and I'm at work, and I haven't slept much, and here I am blogging again. Who's surprised, really?

I was listening to the Elfquest soundtrack on the way in this morning, and I started thinking about my Druid, though I tried to prevent myself from doing so yesterday so I can play Zoey right today But my girlfriend was reading part of "Kendermore" last night to help me fall asleep, and she read a part with the character Gisella, and I realized that Gisella's confident sexuality is kinda how I want to play Tanisevania's sexuality (though she won't use sex as a payment method). She's also bisexual, so her options are completely open as to who she may be attracted to. I'm just afraid this is going to be really awkward for me to play, as my character will be hitting on other characters that my FRIENDS will be playing ^^; Eep. I think I'll be able to do it if I do a good deal of it on secret paper though. Hopefully Heather will be okay with that. I was also thinking this morning about what would happen if she got preggers, as that might easily happen. I think she'd choose to have the baby, as she sees all life as precious and Gnomes value children (since they don't pop them out so often), but she wouldn't want to keep it. I think instead she'd go back to her father's home to give birth, and leave the baby with her sister to find a family for. .....I know, its obsessive, but its good to have a plan for these things.

Okay, now back to Zoey. For realsies. I've actually thought about Zoey in relation to children, and I think she'd want to have kids, but probably hasn't really thought about it since its not biologically possible between her an Tharf. Soooo yeah. I can't wait until the campaign is over and I can assume they live happily ever after on the island. There's just so much drama. And in a way that's good, because the drama in-game is distracting me from my real-life drama and keeping me sane, but it will feel so nice to start fresh with a new character. Gah, no more of that! Anyway, I was doing a bunch of roleplay stuff via e-mail with a couple other players, because we just took this 2-3 month journey in game and didn't really roleplay out what our characters would be doing. Thankfully I got all of that done with yesterday, so I'm all set to start right from when we land at our destination. That makes me smile. And we're starting early today, and ending early, so I should get enough sleep afterward *knock on wood* One thing that bothers me though is that Zoey didn't receive a reply from her mother after having Dahlin, the new party cleric, cast a Sending to her. The only thing I intended to do on the trip was to send another one, and my DM hasn't gotten back to me about that in e-mail. So I think I'll just figure out what words she would send while I'm here at work and have them ready for when we get there tonight. I guess then that I lied, I'm not all set to start, but still.

Oh, and one plan of Zoey's I need to write down before I stunningly forget. She's really attached to the weapon she got from her mentor, called the Labrys, but recently she keeps getting weapons that are far more badass and effective. She doesn't want to stop using the Labrys in favor of any other weapon, but she wants to inflict as much damage as possible. So she's also spent time on the voyage comparing the three weapons she might use as her primary one, including the Labrys. By the end of the voyage, she doesn't appear to have made a decision, but she really has. She would never admit that the Labrys isn't the best choice, so she's basically convinced herself that she needs to stop using it "for its own safety" ^^; She recently just got it back after it was destroyed in battle, so now that its all shiny and fixed, it would make sense in her twisted mind that this would be protecting it. So assuming we survive what we're getting into now, she'd take the Labrys back to the Island afterward and bury it somewhere on the grounds. She needs to buy or borrow a shovel to do this, and will do it by herself, at night, so nobody else knows where it is. She'd probably tell Tharf, but no one else. And she'd further validate this by assuming she will pass the weapon down to someone else in time, like her mentor passed it to her.

And now I'm gonna go find something else to do, as I probably shouldn't be on the computer here.
