        Parenting tip: Teach your kids that Charisma isn’t a dump stat. Works in real life too.

            I mean, I’m not often swinging a sword so I dump STR, and I have a feat called AuDHD which lets me use my INT modifier on my initiative rolls so I dumped DEX too. Been mostly a spellcaster throughout my life so it’s worked out so far.

              Ha! I like your style, fellow caster. Personally, I’m not sure if the stage notes have me down as a warlock or bard, but the suspect demons have been pretty quiet of late, so I’m leaning on the latter — purely out of coping mechanism, though. Bard College always struck me as an oxymoron, frankly. 🤪

      Mammas, don’t let your babies grow up to be bards
      Don’t let 'em pick guitars or drive them old wagons
      Let 'em be healers and wizards and such
