The Frontier of Adventure (D&D 5e) [NC-Exotic System]

[Laughing Hyena]

OMG She is a cutie! I like her concept.

Also love the quirky artwork of your characters. ^_^

[Sinestra]

Yes I would need some time to figure out the place of the drow elves withing the Kingshearth setting. I have a number of ideas

PS also thoughts on Ravalynn as part of the pantheon?

She works, though I do question why the goddess of submission and service has a holy weapon of a whip- a weapon of Command and Taming. Although I don't know that there really exists a weapon in 5e that suits it. 3.5 I'd say a Spiked Chain to represent the chains which bind the church into service. They could have been painted gold too. Maybe a flail? Or I guess you could just call the whip a "Chain Flail" or something and keep the same stats as a whip. That would work.

I actually quite like the Gold Chains visuals to go along with the faith. Lots of implications and symbolism there.

To me a flail would work but its more violent which is not thematic for what I wanted. And a quarterstaff seemed too obvious and unoriginal. As for why a whip? Well its a penance tool as well for the Clergy. which is why I went for it. They use it on themselves. And with this clergy, there is a sort of Command and Taming, it's just not rooted in evil machinations or domination of others. Command of the Self, Taming of the Soul if you will.

Ah okay, so more of a Scourge Whip or the like, mechanically the same but importantly symbolically different. Sounds good. :)

Exactly though their whips aren't meant to permanently damage the lovely skin of the Priestesses. Its a place of healing and redemption after all so... wouldn't be good natured to simply maim a person during that. ^_^

Aten Marlowe

Age      21
Birthday   9/27
Height      6'6"
Gender      Male
Weight      250lbs

    Aten never met his father--Marquise Vorence Marlowe.  In fact, while he grew up knowing he was a nobleman's bastard son, most of his life he didn't know who that father was.  Aten grew up in a country monastery, where strict warrior monks drilled him in swordsmanship and creed.

   Old brother Tansen--a retired paladin--tried to give the boy a bit of hope in his harsh life.  The old man told the boy about his father's deeds--without naming him.  Guardian of the kingdom's dangerous border, commander of a unit of knights, a hero to his people and to his king, with many grateful maidens happily yielding to his prowess out of gratitude.

   Brother-Sargent Laren was not so kind to the boy.  He dutifully refused to actually abuse his authority, but he drove Aten hard in weapons drill and his studies alike.   Aten could tell that Laren didn't believe he was worthy.  Aten knew that the Brother-Sargent wanted him to fail.  Aten could always sense that to pass these trials and become a warrior-monk was his birthright, and he met Laren's contempt as he would an enemy on the battlefield--with strength and determination.

   Aten was right.  In his twenty first year, the god of war acknowledged the young bastard's blood, sweat, and tears by coming to him where he knelt in vigil and giving his blessing.  The War God's magic surged to life in Aten's soul.

   Laren was forced to acknowledge the Marquis wishes.  Aten received his birthright.  A sword and armor his father had left for him.  Most of all, Aten was granted his father's name.  He was Lord Marlowe now.

   Aten Marlowe wrote a letter to his father.  He thanked the Marquis for the harsh trials of his childhood.  The Marquis was within his rights to leave him with his mother, or make him a servant boy in his house.  instead Vorence had given him the chance to prove his strength and ennoble himself.

   Atern Marlow has not  yet met his father.  Instead he rides for adventure, wishing to do his gods work and learn the strength of his own birthright.

[ElayneTrakand]

Variant Human Forge Cleric with a uniquely-flavored Inspiring Leader feat who suffers to learn and seeks to use her creation-centered abilities to craft items at the behest of who she follows.

vs

Drow/Dark Elf/Shadow Elf Life Cleric who's a refugee from her society and seeks to atone for her entire race through service even as the world around her would rather see her broken and suffering.

vs

Changling Grave Cleric who's a blank slate and seeks to observe lives, cultures and societies from top to bottom to learn ever more. Her wish to see people live, prosper and grow earns her a divine calling.

Guess I need to decide. Opinions welcome! Lol

ElayneTrakand, do any of the above concepts intrude on your character concept? I don't want to step on any toes.

Yeah, I am totally cool with any of these, it will be fun to see how our characters relate with us both being in the super sub end.

That said for my characters back story right now my character will probably be on the strong willed side, which isn't ultimately what I want to play her as, any of the rest of you up for breaking Vin in a bit?

[Sinestra]

My Blood Hunter would absolutely love to Tame a strong willed bard, seeing it as a contest of sorts to grow stronger. So if that's the character I end up playing, I promise Evilyn will make quite a strong play for Vin. Evilyn has an iron will and a dark domineering nature that seeks to tame not only the horrors but those around her- but does know that compassion and tenderness do have their place. She's a front line style fighter who's got plenty of hit points and dark methods to fend off foes.

That being said, my other 2 concepts are the complete opposite of that. Elerra is a suffering soul who pretty much could not be more on the extreme end of submissive-city as she's on an eternal quest to repent and suffer on behalf of her entire race. She's a drow, and hates everything that drow are as a people, so enduring punishment and finding joy in service is, in her own mind, punishing her people as a whole, and it makes those enacting that punishment feel better about themselves getting a little revenge against an "obviously evil race". Secretly (to those who aren't her party) however she's a cleric working for good (or whatever cause her party/master is working towards) and only pretends to be a captured evil drow to better keep up "appearances". She'd absolutely love Vin- and oddly would try and help her realize a love for being a slave. Lol. Elerra is a caster-cleric and isn't very good at melee, preferring to use spells to attack but more often then not support her allies.

And then there's Ashara. She's a mild-submissive who's more of a "Utility Healslut" then a strictly-healslut like Elerra. She has a large crafting focus and specializes in social skills, impersonating people and "making dreams into reality". Using her Forge Cleric abilities she can make exotic metalwork, ornate bondage or bindings, and even clothing so long as it contains some trace of metal. She can heal, obviously, but focuses more on "Fixing and Helping" then "Healing and Serving". She'd be making all sorts of toys, weapons, armor etc for the party as well as let them indulge certain fantasies using her shapeshifting abilities. But her character development comes from her simply not knowing who or what she is. She doesn't remember anything before waking up as the woman she is now, she can't explain her abilities, and only knows that when she peers into an open flame she can sometimes hear a guiding voice nurturing her and encouraging her to grow stronger. She's also a little 'detached', since she kind of lacks a lot of perspective, morales and society-programming- but she's also an intense party-girl. So she'd probably try and have a LOT of fun with Vin, try out all sort of new-material clothing and custom-made toys on her as well the usual having-fun, all the while oblivious to her suffering and why it might be 'wrong' to some.


But now I just need to decide which I'm more inclined to play. Or just wait until after the party is chosen and pick the one that fits the best. Since you never know there might be another slave chosen to suffer alongside you before I have the chance. Lol

[ElayneTrakand]

Well my vote is for Ashara. Another character concept I want to run at some point is an artificer who invented vibrators, the first sex toy in the land. But I digress. I would live to see the shenanigans that they could get into Ashara experiments.

Oh Ashara has Tinkerer Tools. She could make vibrators, they were on my list of things to try and make. Along with a "Liquid Metal" (re: latex), and all sorts of other 'oddities'. "Bad Dragon" would have nothing on Ashara (eventually). LOL

Hrmmm, I wonder if I could multiclass into Artificer. I'll do some reading. It would be even better with Artificer.

But alright, a very strong vote for Ashara, and a very strong vote for Elerra. Will have to see where this goes in the next few days!

[Laughing Hyena]

Oh you think you'll be the first ones to make sex toys in this world... thats cute. ^_^

Personally I do love Elerra but thats my bias showing..

[Sinestra]

I mean, there's sex toys and then there's "Adventurer Sex Toys". Exotic Magical Beast-shaped dildos, exotic leathers and materials, magical items with unique sexy-purposes etc. Besides, if the world already has a massive sex toy industry- then where's the fun in being naughty? LOL

I love Elerra too. So it's a tough call. Which is why I'm soliciting opinions. Elerra is going to suffer just from being on the surface with her Sunlight Sensitivity, let alone what the party or anyone else does with her. Which is just innately fun in and of itself. But so would playing Evilyn or Ashara. So it's probably going to end up being a 'wait for more votes of the people in the game' to see who I play. With maybe my vote if absolutely necessary. Lol

[Muse]

  Well, with the right face claim--someone busty with the ebony est of skin--Elerra could be amazing. 

[Zaer Darkwail]

  Well, with the right face claim--someone busty with the ebony est of skin--Elerra could be amazing.

Indeed, also I vote Elerra as well. As idea Crows family could had 'purchased' Elerra for Aron as companion years ago. Crows would give steady flow of generous donation in return keeping Elerra on service on Aron (provide the clerical magica/healing and also services to reduce his stress, plus give him some living companionship to avoid him become a hermit who deals only with undead/dead thanks being necromancer). Aron would help carry on the act of Elerra being 'captured wild evil drow slave' with her, talk she is under magical command/collar and thus can't defy his orders and uses any suitable opportunity to punish and humiliate her in public (so thus serving on Elerra's need for penance for her races sins).

But realism wise Aron would not let other men have way with her or sexually abuse her in public. At best spank her and forced dress provocative manner (or none at all). Or sometimes use as stool where rest his legs while he sits in tavern or serve as living tray. But in privacy Aron would be respectful for her faith and appreciate her companionship and they had been together years so he treats her as trusted companion, even grown affection to her as concubine.

[Sinestra]

Lets not forget, this is a "Realistic D&D Setting" sort of thing, so characters like Vin and in this case Elerra are a rarity and oddity. Elerra's current character art is up already, in my first post in this thread (the first non-GM post lol). No picture I could ever find would be exactly what she looks like given the whole 'gold chains' thing, but I would like to think her existing picture pretty appropriate, though I'm still looking honestly. Where as Evilyn and Ashara are both pretty solidified as far as character art goes.

[Zaer Darkwail]

Yeah, I would expect locals be quite shocked on seeing Elerra and how she's treated.

[Muse]

*Smiles*  not the ebony I was hoping for, but she's very hot. 

[Sinestra]

You were hoping for Obsidian, I'm guessing. And truth be told in her appearance section I have her skin described as "Midnight", so the picture is just a picture. That being said, if you have any pictures you think might be suitable you can always PM me them and I'll have a look. Like I said, I'm still looking for "just the right" picture. Consider that one a placeholder until character generation is fully done. Lol

(Un)shockingly, it's quite difficult to find submissive drow women pictures. Plenty of them in Dominant roles, poses and attire though, unsurprisingly Lol.

[Zaer Darkwail]

To me the pic is fine :). But could hold in spoiler alternative or NSFW pics of her when out of her clothes and not wearing her blindfold. Elcadia from lineage II (overall lineage II dark elves were build fan service in mind) is only other perfect fit for blind folded dark elf what I found. For sake for erotica, Nualia dark elf is one 3D animators created rig specifically for erotic 3D animation stuff.

But overall blindfolded dark elf or dark elf in golden chains is hard to find even for my google fu (and my computer having thoroughly perverted google history which is optimized to find lewds).

[Muse]

OOh, Nualia is really nice.  Where is she from?

I have my own preference of course but honestly, I like this picture even if it isn't 100% accurate. Also people please remember this isn't a smut for smuts sake kind of game. ^_^

[Laughing Hyena]

The Mandatory Folks that this thread was made for...

Vin [Glamour Bard] (ElayneTrakand), Elerra Vrinn [Life Priestess] (Sinestra), Masumi Sidhe [Mastermind Rogue](StryxRiver)

Who is needed to fill the party...

Aron Crow [Necromancer] (Zaer Darkwail), Aten Marlowe [War Priest] (Muse), Tessa Barrow [Swashbuckler Rogue] (Latooni Subota), Oryc [Champion] (Melkart), Rieta Hope [Paladin/Ranger] (Marie Reynolds)

That means there are only three more characters to be selected from. I will be looking at backstory, and roles in the party checked off. Not everyone is ready with a character sheet so I will wait before deciding. I know theres only a few people.

[Zaer Darkwail]

OOh, Nualia is really nice.  Where is she from?

You can find lots of Nualia in pornhub, but originally she was created for Lord Aardvark's own animated web series (using Source Filmmaker); Fallen Throne. Somepoint he shared the 3D files for Nualia's model and people bought it and used it various projects and some which made own canon for Fallen Throne. Based on this blog post he has moved from Source Filmmaker to Unity in regards building the chars while animation work is still on Filmmaker.

But overall blindfolded dark elf or dark elf in golden chains is hard to find even for my google fu (and my computer having thoroughly perverted google history which is optimized to find lewds).

The blindfold isn't really necessary in the picture obviously, since more often then not she's not wearing any eye covering. She'd only wear it in bright direct sunlight, and only if someone's there to direct her. Lol

So feel free to expand the search. I could absolutely agree that the picture of Elerra should have darker skin, since the character actually does.
