While prepping for my session next week, I realized that I hadn't posted last month's sessiong: https://orichalcumsouls.obsidianport...sts/session-13
I have a little more on Five Days Darkness to share with you from my take on the character. I'm portraying him as the Sun's little brother, literally stuck in his older brother's shadow. He is the god of unintended consequences. When he does not exist, he dreams for the Sun. Just like the cannon version, he wants to prove himself worthy of his older brother, though my version thinks he should be among the Incarna. Since he can't exist in the Sun's presence, he needs a realm where the sun doesn't rise. He thinks that should be the Underworld, and messing with the Underworld in the First Age is why he was sealed away in the first place. He thinks it's a perfect fit: just as he was the unintended consequence of creating the UCS, the Underworld is the unintended consequence of killing the souls of the primordials during the war. That's also why he he wants the Solars to go to Lookshy rather than Sijan - the same ancient ghosts that could potentially guide them to the deathplace of Larquen Quen may also recall FDDs interest in the Underworld.
At some point down the line, I'll do a proper stats and story write up for the character. I also have some more thoughts for portraying Larquen Quen, which I'll reveal as the character discover the Fortress Invisible...
- Drac makes another deal with the Raksh
- Kaveh departs for good
- Zakiti is taught a lesson about hubris, though whether she learns it remains to be seen
- More is revealed about the Mask of Winters and a wild plan is conceived
- A story thread from A Vision of Things to come rears its head
