Okay, there’s a strong possibility nobody will read this and I’m fine with that. I just wanted to post the story somewhere because it’s the best moment in DnD I’ve had thus far.
So, for context, my character is a wooden marionette that’s possessed by the soul of a sorcerer who died hundreds of years ago. He was brought back to life spontaneously after a barabarian found the box the marrionette was stored in. He was certain that the barbarian had brought him back to life and due to his lawful-type alignment, he stuck to his morals and started following the barabarian until he could repay his debt to her (which is something he does with everyone he feels he’s in debt to).
Basically the BBG of the campaign was the goddess of strife and necromancy. During our first fight with her she immediately zeroed in on my character and paralyzed him with magic. She then priceeded to tell him that she was the one who brought him back to life and she wanted him to join her and turn his back on the other people of the campaign. The conversation went as follows:
“Without my magic, you’d still be dead, little puppet. Join me and I’ll return your human form.”
My character, obviously shook, looked over at the other members of the campaign. Unsure of what to do, he speaks to the goddess. “My lady… I’m still in dept to the barbarian of this campaign. I can’t just turn my back on her.”
The goddess looked annoyed. “You owe nothing to that brute! I was the one who brought you back, not her! But fine, if you wish not to serve me, I hope that in a hundred more years you’ll have changed your tune.”
She then proceeded to rip my character’s soul out of the marionette and hold it as my body collapsed.
Luckily, the party ended up being able to get my character’s soul back into the marrionette, but it did leave him very shaken up.
So excited to continue playing this story!
