Character fleshing out (PAGE 2)

Feel free to talk about your characters here ^^
Give me a moment while I fill this thread with ridiculous character ideas and super-long replies.

Oh btw Derek! Your mention of Silaka reminded me of something that might help you.  Minor illusion can only be used to make an unmoving image or a sound. (only illusion wizards can do two both parts in one cast) Since a round takes about 6 seconds its kinda useless for moving disguises. However, since she is a warlock she can take the misty visions invocation which gives at-will "silent image". That would give you the effect I think you want for Silaka. Just keep in mind that it requires you to keep concentration to maintain it, and you have to spend an action every turn to keep the image moving so doing things while disguised will be tricky. You can also only move within a 15ft cube per cast of the spell. You can recast it for free, but only once every action/round. In other words if you are continuously moving forward you a gonna have to walk rather slowly and disguise the fact that you are casting a spell every few seconds. So yeah... it has quite a lot of drawbacks and weaknesses (its only a lv1 spell), but at least it will allow you to do want you need and the flaws in it provide good roleplay opportunities. OOC Jann has this invocation along with eldritch sight and its the spell he used to disguise Skelly. All of the drawbacks I mentioned are why Jann hid himself beneath an illusory top-hat above Skelly's head. (I admit that I was actually a little reluctant to mention this stuff because it likely would cause you to have the same exact invocations as Jann, but if it works for her, it works)
but agonizing has so much burst damage and i can only choice two

Hmmmm. Welll eldritch sight requires constant concentration and only has a 30ft range so its rather meh for replacement eyes. (especially if you want to use hex or silent image) You might be able to drop it, take misty visions, and then ask the gm to allow your character to see because it would be crippling otherwise. You might get a small penalty or something to your vision but I don't know. For example, the gm may just allow you to have eldritch sight for free, but you have to take its weaknesses like its limited range and concentration requirement too (that could result in some interesting situations actually). Or you might just get ordinary vision like the rest of us. I think you would have to spend an actual slot for the darkvision invocation though since its much better than normal sight and has no downsides. You could also ask Jann to cast misty visions on you if you really don't want to burn up your own slot. I'm pretty sure he can hide inside your chest and you could have him use his ability even when I'm not there. As long as you aren't using him to kill people or mess with his family, a simple deposit of a piece of candy will get him to go along with just about anything. You could also just wait until you lvl and get more invocations. Though you will also be faced with other potentially better abilities as you lvl too.  Its a conundrum.
im pretty sure jann does not want to be i her chest as she is gonna have many..... late night visitors and her chest acts as a temp storage for the.... waste before its disposed of. i also like having all my chars be family and having our father making each of us be made without something

I....I wish I could say that Jann couldn't be bribed to put up with such things. I really wish I could, but honestly it would depend on the quality of the candy. Jann is also covered in an invisible forcefield, can clean a 1ft cube with a snap, and make part of a garbage dump smell like fresh morning dew without even burning up a spell slot. It probably hasn't happened enough to be apparent, but Jann hasn't exactly been bothered by anything of the crazy stuff that's happened thus far. Jann's view of the world is very abnormal. He isn't the guy who would start some sort of clown vs dinosaur barfight, but if one broke out he would be the guy sitting in the middle of it sipping tea as if it were an ordinary tuesday. His biggest problem so far has actually been the concern that he is invading someone else's privacy because dragon-halfling sex is fine and dandy, but being a rude peeping tom is just plain uncalled for. (His owl on the other hand has been scared three times over) (note: This is just me explaining a bit about my character. I'm not trying to convince you of anything. )
I'd say for Silaka's vision problems, I'll say it's based on movement. Beyond 20ft if someone/thing isn't moving  she has trouble seeing it. Like a T-Rex....kinda. As for perception checks she'll have disadvantage,  just to keep it normal, and in the dark her vision is reduced to 5ft, but only for movement (either she has to constantly move in the dark, or needs a light source. She won't be seeing any traps any time soon)

for those who dont know silaka is brazo's sister she is a warlock with 4 14 stats 1 10 and an 18(jon was there when i rolled them) she is is almost completly blind except when in her alt form witch is a cube that brazo can store inside him self she is a fem fatale , her body is special as it can have sex(not reproduce) and she likes to con people with instent preg condoms(yes thats what i choice to give her as a con)her archan focus are her nips(shes basicaly a fem bot)like brazo she has multiple personalitys(i think we can make this world lore every warforged has multiple personaliys) she has 1. a super shy girl 2.a bitch 3. a s**t. she also can take on the personality of a prostitute(unlike brazo who was made before the warforged supplament was made she is using the true WF rules not the brazo ones) she also has the same hp as brazo but half the level
So you're going to bring a robot prostitute to the campaign... Jesus Christ, Buddha and Allah this is getting weird.

Oh right! James, Joe and Daniel, you can tell us more about your characters in this thread  so we can get a better idea of what you're trying to do (If you want to).
