+1 eldritch bartender

[pacte]

Hello, Riverview! I'm Jai and I bring you Tom Collins from The Adventure Zone: (K)nights. Tom here is an incredibly nervous half-elf bartender and a warlock who has formed a pact with the Great Old One (an eldritch God that happens to be a bunch of abstract shapes instead of your usual tentacle-y abomination). Because Tom fears the social stigma that comes with being a warlock, he pretends to be a wizard. Usually very badly so. He's also found himself becoming one of the newly appointed leaders of a thieves guild turned revolutionary renegade faction called The Beasts of the Ring. You know, as you do.

He comes from the end of the third episode and he'll be staying at the Communal Housing on Floor 6, Bed 4 ('sup roomies) while bartending in the city until he can open his own bar again.

I'm really excited to be here and I look forward to playing with y'all! If you wanna plot or just talk, feel free to hit me up at cloaks any time. ♥

""""wizard""""

hi im justine and i'm sure you know this shitty wizard, who will likely see through tom's bullshit but won't call him on it because he doesn't care enough

[pacte]

totally A Wizard™

hello justine, it's good to meet you! o/ that's so nice of taako. sort of. tom will appreciate it all the same

[spellslots]

look it's the best he's gonna get. if tom wants to pretend to be a rad as hell wizard that's on him

also god i just realized that taako now has stolen century memories so uh, sorry about ur future tom

[pacte]

STILL thank u taako, have a free drink for your continued silence

ahahaha oh boy, that future sure is a thing. a terrible, terrible thing. i still can't believe griffin did that

[spellslots]

wait if he's getting free drinks out of this he will not only stay silent, but tell everyone about how great of a wizard tom is

im not even surprised honestly it is 110% a thing that a younger sibling would do

[pacte]

no no no that's just gonna add to the pressure, the silence is enough really

that's true. travis' persistence that it's not canonical gives me life tho

[spellslots]

okok he can handle silence. he's gr8 at secrets

griffin, pouring gasoline onto travis's sandbox: u think u can DM huh

[pacte]

ok good, he better be. there are free drinks on the line here

lmao that's an accurate description of what happened. technically griffin kinda screwed justin over too since it's heavily implied that the robot is troth and she lost everyone

the sweetest baby brother my ass

[spellslots]

and that is what really matters here

(psst tom literally no one knows the difference anyway just be honest)

i got the impression all of them were there it was just troth that was awake?? but ill be honest i paid vague attention to the plot bc i was too focused on my heart & soul aka lup, the superior twin

[pacte]

of course

(maybe one day he'll get there, but where's the fun in that if he can't dig his own hole and lie about what he is first)

hmm could be, my first impression was that she was the only leader left? but i really need to re-listen to that episode because yeah, lup was amazing and really distracting being the light in everyone's lives

[spellslots]

lmao this is true there's nothing better than digging charctesr into shitty holes

there was something about waking the others up but that could've just been other robits. i was gonna check the script but it isnt finished yet :C

[pacte]

it's the Good Shit. one of my ingame goals is definitely trying to get him to a point where he might be comfortable being honest tho

yeah, i thought it was the other robuts. BUT EITHER WAY shitty future is shitty whether it's an alternate reality or not, thanks griffin. i wanted more taz:(k)nights content but not like this

[fifteendollars]

i believe in u tom, trust urself

i'd bet ten bucks travis does something to make it non canon the next (k)nights episode, just 2 spite griffin

[pacte]

one day. maybe. hopefully??

of that i have absolutely no doubt, that's exactly what travis is gonna do and u know it. griffin's got it coming

[fifteendollars]

the power was in u all along

omg maybe he'll just kill off tom. as an older sibling i can confirm i'd be petty enough to do that

[pacte]

well the power of an eldritch god is anyway. which is kind of the problem

OH NO you're right, as an older sibling that's exactly what i would do too. here's hoping that travis is better than us... we'll have to wait a year to find out

Hello! I'm Cubey and I enjoyed our TDM thread. If you're interested, I'm looking forward to more interactions between Tom and 2B. They may involve more Magic Lasers, which are definitely a real wizard spell that exists.

[pacte]

Hi Cubey! Thanks for the fun thread, I enjoyed it as well and I'm definitely interested in more CR between Tom and 2B! Just wait until he introduces Wizard Shout which is also a real wizard spell that exists for sure.

[advanced]

He sounds like totally a Wizard, definitely not a warlock, I'm convinced.

I'm Fossil and I play Bucky "the loser" Barnes from the MCU, nice to meet you.

[pacte]

Yes good, he is most certainly 100% for sure a wizard.

Hi Fossil, it's nice to meet you too! What a good loser you have there.
