Monday Critters! Like to show your love for our NPC’s!! Who have been your favorites so far this campaign??

The only person who keeps Hal grounded in the real world is Taisha. He’s out of it after everything that’s happened in the war. 😭
was refreshing for this

MONDAY CREEWWW RAAAAGHH
Azgra was kinda stupid god of war. If you inflict pain and suffering on your orc followers than you have to give them something in return. For example KHORN from W40K: spill blood for him and he grant you power and extasy from killing and massacre, there are even a chance of immortality on the horizon. There should be PROs of serving you, not only CONs.
I guess the morale here is – be more like KHORN.
BLOOD FOR THE BLOOD GOD.
Day 173 waiting for Matt's Inigo Montoya moment.
"Hello! My name is Sir Julien Davinos. You Killed My Father. Prepare to Die!"
P.S. So far only one revenge kill – Frons Tachonis. Goooood, gooooood……..
Hello Bees
one minute omg
The moment Hal followed in his brother’s footsteps was so powerful, so emotional, and so incredibly well played by Liam. Liam has created such an incredibly multi-layered character in Hal. I cried at this moment 😭
hello Monday crew

Liam was on fire this episode!
Woah I’m early!
Real talk, thoughts on shallots?
The schemers table is such a treat; the political intrigue, Liam and Luis being sad ™️, bawdy Murry and the weirdness of Bolaire.
Fuck, does anyone know how many hit points those Crow Keepers have?
The GOOD par of my Mondays
"- We bless him above all else for his honesty. Because of all the gods of Aramán, ours was the only one who never lied about what he truly was. For his honesty we bless him most of all"
Schemers table walking the edge huh… they be edging
I like bread
