... so I disappeared into a BG3-shaped hole xD I completely failed to be reasonable and keep it for when I had more time, and tbh I regret nothing, I’m having so much fun with it. They somehow managed to translate the concept of tabletop improv into gameplay, and it’s amazing - there’s a lot of things that I’m still getting used to, but the combat feels so dynamic and impredictable with all the jumping and climbing to higher ground and looking for inflammable surfaces I’ve been doing.

I’m not very far in yet, because I ended up trying out a couple of different combinations before settling on a PC:

She’s a Forest Gnome because I really wanted Speak With Animals and a Bard because her starting luth is bigger than she is and I just couldn’t resist. Tbh she’s probably the least bard to ever bard - she keeps failing her knowledge rolls, and I keep forgetting she has bard stuff she can do. I like her that way though; it fits with the vague idea that I had in mind going in, which was ‘busker who picked up some magic and called it a day’, and I love that I’ve been able to play her that way so far without feeling like I’m missing out or playing the game wrong.
