Hey remember that astral deva who liked to join crusades and then everyone in the crusade dies except him and then he goes to join another crusade?

What would have happened if we hadn't kicked him out?

He's not going to show up in B6, so I'll explain a bit.

In short, Tailiel managed to personally anger Shar ages ago, who laid an incredibly powerful curse on him, all unknowingly. Impossible to detect, but it curves things around him so that everything he does is tinged by unbearable loss. He was meant to be one of the possible hooks into B6 with a revelation from Taelfagn about it in the final battle.

Mechanically he'd add a large penalty for NPC death rolls off screen, as well as provoke some extra, difficult events to cope with. It would essentially be hard mode for no real gain.

That curse was a corker, even for Shar. Some of her better work and only enabled by (spoilers). He's an innocent victim of it, but won't give up trying to do good. He has a really shitty lot in life and doesn't even know why.

So I guess even if he had went to run a soup kitchen the soup would be spoiled. Oh well, sucks to be him. And everyone around him.

Yeah.

He's genuinely a huge victim, even if he's a bit of an ass about it. It's understandable from his point of view, but...he's a victim, pure and simple.

File this under reason 10000 or so that Shar's a horrible bitch.

One extra note: Winning B3 with him along would open up breaking his curse as a B6 todo. I don't blame you in the least for kicking him, but it was just more bad luck for him.

We might learn of this IC as we work against Shar, anyhow.
<Steph> I might have made a terrible mistake

Anything's possible.

[15:21] <Kotono> It is true that DMs ultimately evolve into chaotic entities of pure data, a modern day slaad if you will.
<Cidward> God willing, we'll all meet in Buttquest 2: The Quest for More Butts.

I dreamed that Mirima wanted her clothes back from Jaela. I'm not sure why.

So if you could return whatever you borrowed, I'd be really grateful, Jaela.

Let's just buy her something nice in Brightwater. A brand new wardrobe!

That worked, I didn't have the same dream tonight. Good to have sorted.

It so happens that due to B6, the remaining draconic brands from Bahamut and Tiamat are gone. Could you remove those from the relevant sheets for posterity and post here that you have? Thanks.

Done. Dragons will now stop throwing themselves to their deaths on encountering a wild Afina.

Anastasia

Except devil dragons, of course.
