Tanya looked mortified, and leaned forward to look at what she had written. "Oh, man, I actually wrote that?" She shook her head and managed to laugh at herself. "I was telling my roomie about him, and she said he sounded too gay to function, and I was trying to decide between Chaotic Good and Chaotic Neutral at the time, and... yeah. I mean, he really is, though. He is a sucker for a handsome face, and that's been getting him into trouble all over the place. Though it is also what led to his redemption, so..."<br/><br/>2. "Yeah, I really like the idea of a tiefling who's been living the life that his infernal heritage encourages, lying and stealing and breaking hearts and just generally being a nuisance and not a great person, but because of an encounter with a celestial, he's trying to turn his life around and be a better person. The celestial patron really appeals to me, like, philosophically, and there's a lot that I can do with it visually, too."<br/><br/>3. Tanya twirled her pencil around in her hand. "It's all coming together, just need to settle on a few details. I had figured Entertainer for his background, but I'm considering Criminal too. Might depend on what everyone else is playing." She tapped her pencil against her chin and scanned her sheet briefly. "Oh, right! Yeah, I was holding off on allocating ability scores until I found out what we were doing with feats. I've read that some DMs let PCs take a bonus feat at level one, to make them more distinctive and customized beyond just race, class and background. Are we doing that? I'm really interested in Infernal Constitution, because, y'know, being able to wander around Icewind Dale in summer clothes would be pretty sweet!"<br/><br/><hr/><br/>Outside of conferring with Eduardo, Tanya made herself comfortable in the study room, not hesitating to rummage through Nicholas's snack bag for something that took her fancy. "I haven't actually played before," she replied to his question, "but I've watched both seasons of Critical Role, so I know the rules pretty well."<br/><br/>She tapped the "Background" section on her character sheet while looking around at the other players. "So, Nick, your guy is an Entertainer bard? We could do a 'performing team' thing, but... yeah, I think I'm leaning more towards Criminal than Entertainer now, so we've got somebody who can be sneaky and pick locks, even if we'll be outside most of the time." She scribbled some more notes on her sheet.<br/><br/>She smiled brightly at Billie and Sam as they pondered character concepts. "A winter druid would look really cool! You could either be all in tune with the snow so you don't get cold at all, or wear a bunch of really cool-looking furs from interesting animals. And half-elves look great too."<br/><br/>Tanya happily tilted her half-finished character sheet in Sam's direction. "Hey, look all you like if it'll help. If you can't settle on a concept, maybe just look at some pictures and see what gives you some inspiration. That's how I came up with Penance - I was doodling and came up with this look, and built a character around him. Do you have an image in mind yet?"<br/><br/><div class="spoiler_container"><div class="spoiler_header" onclick="hideSecond (this);" role="button">Character sheet in progress</div><div class="spoiler_body">Penance<br/>Medium Glasya tiefling warlock 1 (criminal), chaotic <del>gay</del>neutral<br/><hr/><strong>Armor Class:</strong> <br/><strong>Hit Points:</strong> <br/><strong>Speed:</strong> 30'<br/><hr/><br/><strong>STR</strong>  <strong>| DEX</strong>  <strong>| CON</strong> <br/><strong>INT</strong>  <strong>| WIS</strong>  <strong>| CHA</strong> <br/><br/><hr/><br/><strong>Armor:</strong> Light armor<br/><strong>Weapons:</strong> Simple weapons<br/><strong>Skills:</strong> Arcana, Deception, Intimidation, Stealth<br/><strong>Tool Proficiencies:</strong> Thieves' tools, cards<br/><strong>Senses:</strong> Darkvision 60'<br/><strong>Saves:</strong> Wisdom, Charisma<br/><strong>Languages:</strong> Common, Infernal<br/><br/><hr/><br/><strong>Features:</strong><br/>Criminal Contact<br/>Darkvision 60'<br/>Hellish Resistance<br/>Legacy of Malbolge<br/>Pact Magic<br/>Otherworldly Patron: The Celestial<br/>Healing Light (2d6)<br/><br/><hr/><br/><strong>Spellcasting:</strong><br/>Spell slots: 1: 1.
