Nothing in the rules that says contacting "a deity" means it has to be YOUR deity... (ttrpg.network)

This comic follows on from the Previous comic which will almost certainly provide context.

You can follow this comic series from the start Here. Make sure to start at the bottom (oldest comic) and work upwards.

Some people suggested that breaking up tall comics into two images within the post body would help readability in their client, so here's that.

We're over the exposition hump now, so hopefully following comics will have smaller/fewer speech bubbles.

why does konsi have to be such a gigachad

like is there a single thing she hasn't already done and excelled at

I think this largely comes from being a protagonist in a DnD campaign for a long time, especially a roleplay heavy one. DnD characters naturally build a portfolio of exploits that any NPC character would think insane to accomplish.

If you want the true gigachad energy though, the spell she used to contact Talona was Divination, which requires a sacrifice to the deity in question, worth at least 25gp.

Konsi thinks it's good etiquette to make your sacrifice something the deity would approve of. For example, when she contacted Selune, she crafted some art-piece quality functional navigational tools out of silver and used those as the component in the spell.

As Talona is the goddess of poison and decay, Konsi decided that a suitable "sacrifice" would be a bottle of lethal, slow acting poison. She spent a few days gathering appropriate herbs and mushrooms, made the poison, then promptly drank it to sacrifice it.

made the poison, then promptly drank it to sacrifice it

That sounds, uh, inadvisable.

You could absolutely just put 25 gold pieces in a pile and cast the spell, but Konsi's such a tryhard...

How much damage did she take from the poison?

[–] [email protected] 6 points 1 day ago (1 children)

I think it was something like 10d8, plus poisoned condition until removed.

The average damage on that is 45... Konsi OP

Having self-confidence

Talking to Razira without turning into a flustered mess

Saying rude words

Oh no... It's back to school for Konsi!

I'm really in love with your art style and characters.

The main comic seems to be really small. And the smaller ones were showing small for me too. I'm using lemmy.world. But I was able to fix it with css. Here's the css I have now if anyone is interested:

.img-expanded:not(.banner, .avatar-overlay) {
    max-height: unset;
    max-width: 100vw;
    position: absolute;
    left: 50%;
    transform: translate(-50%, -75px);
    outline: auto;
    outline-color: black;
    z-index: 1;
    padding: 50px;
    outline-offset: -50px;
    pointer-events: none;
}

.md-div img {
    max-height: unset;
}

/*Note: Links are exactly the same except without bg-transparent, so using not(bg-transparent) instead will outline the links instead of the expandos. Also, they're outlined orange unless you change it, so you could take that off, give them all outlines, and you can tell which they are based on the color.*/
.thumbnail.rounded.overflow-hidden.d-inline-block.position-relative.p-0.border-0.bg-transparent {
    outline: auto;
}

The small one in the middle is what I'm using to fix the shrunken images in comments problems.
