I drink coffee and I know things. Use me to your advantage! Especially for worldbuilding and myth.
I'm also mildly entertaining, so follow me and check out my links below!

@GodysseyPodcast Eithnu comes to mind, but she's one of the beautiful Fomor, mother of Lugh, not a hag.

@GodysseyPodcast Aye. Kinda tempted to make her part of a hag trio coven with the Cailleach Bheur and somebody else.

[Of Gods and Gamemasters (Jack Kellum) @jackoftales]

@GodysseyPodcast Cethlenn is going to be tougher to peg. We have almost no info on her. But, hey, I'll probably make her a nice giant/hag cross with druidic powers and a heck of a javelin throwing arm for the killing of the Dagda.

[Of Gods and Gamemasters (Jack Kellum) @jackoftales]

@GodysseyPodcast Yeah, as one who is far more attuned to it, via being brought back to life in it, he can do things with it others cannot.

@JessieCole89 Whelp. Lemme see what I can do.

[Of Gods and Gamemasters (Jack Kellum) @jackoftales]

@GodysseyPodcast Cool. Updated the Power Word Kill thing.

[Of Gods and Gamemasters (Jack Kellum) @jackoftales]

@GodysseyPodcast All good other than that then?

[Of Gods and Gamemasters (Jack Kellum) @jackoftales]

@GodysseyPodcast Yeah. High stats all around, because this guy used to be a god. He only needs his eye back to return to that, really. Now, he's still like a top end demon lord...I referenced top demon lords and Tiamat for benchmarks.

[Of Gods and Gamemasters (Jack Kellum) @jackoftales]

@GodysseyPodcast Nod. Wisdom saves are general will. Charisma is force of personality. Similar, but not identical. In my mind.

[Of Gods and Gamemasters (Jack Kellum) @jackoftales]

@GodysseyPodcast Turn Undead makes an undead flee...but he's not immune because it's not the frightened condition. It has an outside chance of working.

[Of Gods and Gamemasters (Jack Kellum) @jackoftales]

@GodysseyPodcast Good save on the PWK. You're wondering why he's proficient in Wisdom saves? He just struck me as obstinate, strong willed. And turn undead is a Will save...this is not the guy to fall for that easily.

[Of Gods and Gamemasters (Jack Kellum) @jackoftales]

@GodysseyPodcast Thank you very much for the feedback, btw.

[Of Gods and Gamemasters (Jack Kellum) @jackoftales]

@AcademicFoxhole @Bee_Zelda Nod.

[Of Gods and Gamemasters (Jack Kellum) @jackoftales]

@AcademicFoxhole @Bee_Zelda Yup. It causes decision paralysis is some because of literally unlimited options...but the game itself can be quite simple once you've got characters made.

[Of Gods and Gamemasters (Jack Kellum) @jackoftales]

@LawDogStrikes Chill. Loved it, especially Creature Feature.

[Of Gods and Gamemasters (Jack Kellum) @jackoftales]

@AcademicFoxhole @Bee_Zelda I agree. It's my top favorite.
