    A bit of a cop out, but I’ve been wanting to tinker with the homebrewery, so I just made a lil 1 page NPC sheet for fun. Not quite an encounter, not even a statblock lol, but I was tinkering so I figured I’d share.

      I don’t think it’s a cop out at all. It’s a very good start and I appreciate the work and the quote. It sets me to thinking of a monstrous demigod by the name of Na’scrivas I’ve had rattling around for some time (I made an anagram of scrivener and changed a few letters. Plus, who doesn’t enjoy a good apostrophe in a fantasy setting.). It’s takes the form of a journal that makes its contents a reality at the cost of slowly detaching the writer further and further from reality. The idea is that by the end of the story the reader should question how much of it actually happened, and how much was simply the protagonist going mad.
