As it turns out, this comic is a brilliant meme format, and we need to get the ball rolling on this.

Half-Orc?

Everything is a lie...

I know is probably due to not having "Goblin" as a race in the software.

Goblin's a race in the software. We own Volo's and Monsters of the Multiverse.

If you look closely at the art, her skintone has changed slightly, her ears are shorter, her teeth are different:

Ah, the “Gauntlets of the Arcane Fist” are gauntlets of ogre power, with a few small extras - reincarnate doesn’t just let you boost stats - or all the cool kids would be doing it

That's a pretty long story, but the half-orc result is from the reincarnate spell and a (lucky??) roll.

Ah, reincarnate ! Should have led with this. A classic case of rerolling your character for a second go at life :)

Wow, a 19 in strength?

so strong, so wise

Her strength is, I think 11? But those "gauntlets of the arcane fist" are gauntlets of ogre power with some extra features. This statline (rolled) is really high even without the 19 strength in there.

Proficiency in intimidation with +7?? That'd be the cutest intimidation of all time

[–] [email protected] 2 points 2 years ago

Oh yeah, she got the intimidation proficiency from the half-orc racial package... I think it probably stems entirely from the fact that she's 6'8" now.
