WILL SOLACE COME RETRIEVE YOUR EMOTIONAL SUPPORT GOTH I'M NOT HIS BABYSITTER

( helpfully, she adds an illustration that no one asked for: )



( then, because nico seriously needs more friends and it's her duty as former head counselor of the ares cabin to embarrass any and all younger campers: )

↖  BTW THIS IS NICO
HE LOVES LONG WALKS THROUGH THE UNDERWORLD AND BROODING IN GRAVEYARDS
HE'S SPOKEN FOR BUT I'M SURE HE'LL BE THE AFTERLIFE OF YOUR NEXT PARTY
CHALLENGE HIM TO A GAME OF MYTHOMAGIC TODAY!!!

ALSO IF ANYONE OUT THERE HAS SEEN THESE DEMIGODS CONTACT ME ASAP
LOOKS LIKE ZEUS IS SUPER FUCKING PISSED AGAIN AND WE NEED A GAMEPLAN

( more shitty doodles follow, this time vaguely resembling percy and annabeth, although this time she labels them: )



— CLARISSE LA RUE, DRAKON-SLAYER, DAUGHTER OF ARES

( she figures she may as well cover all her bases here since all of this feels like a ren faire on steroids anyway.

ooc | threadjacking is more than welcome and, frankly, encouraged. let's all go hog boar wild. 🫡 )

[ campaign you say?? her nerd senses are tingling. she loves that word. ]

Campaigns, tabletop - is it like a strategy game?

[satanicpanics]

sort of
it kind of depends on how you play

i'd describe it more like collaborative storytelling with the occasional dice roll
and i play the role of an EVER benevolent god because i promise i'd stop actively trying to kill off characters

[sophos]

I can come up with my own ways to play? That could be strategizing.

Some might say benevolent god is an oxymoron. Do the characters get to fight god? [ that personally sounds very appealing to her at the moment. ]

How do you win?

[satanicpanics]

depends
show up for the next campaign and see

that's the first step towards winning as well

[ He may need to adjust his campaign plans for these people... ]

[sophos]

I'm interested. I'll be there.
I just want to know how to play it, but I suppose it's easier for you to just explain all at once.
I don't have to do anything else yet besides show up?

[ annabeth will come up with one of the most complex, insane character sheets you've ever seen, just wait eddie. ]

[satanicpanics]

[ Honestly, he'll appreciate that so much... ]

nope
just have to show up

it probably sounds like i'm bullshitting you but it's genuinely easier for you to come play a game and have me talk you through it

[sophos]

[ she's gonna love dnd SO MUCH....... ]

No, I get it. Sometimes learning is best done through immersion. We're all pretty hands on anyway.
I just like to be prepared when I can be.
