no doubt about it! he's a fucking gasbag of a wizard but he's MY wizard
prefers to be called by his title 'gale of waterdeep'. waterdeep is a city back home. he thinks it's better than his name, but he's pretty impressive on his own
best thing about him is tara! she's a tressym. those are cats with wings but don't ever call her a cat she talks like an old lady and nags him like a mother
sometimes she keeps me company when we camp for the night
( all of the animals had a clear favourite for night-time companions and that was karlach. no competition. while anyone at camp would be a safe choice, no one could produce the same kind of external warmth karlach could. )
Something in between. Too cold reminds me of when I was young, but too hot doesn't do much good for my skin.
A warm autumn evening, with a light breeze. The colours are beautiful, it's nice enough to still share a walk with someone, and there are many things you can see.

could have died!
i imagine trying to teleport off a crashing ship is fiddly business
( but the outcome is still so, so funny. )

I assume after that things were better? I'd hope magical mishaps wouldn't be common.
no subject
after that? nothing but mishaps all the way down
what's the expression? out of the frying pan and into the oven?

met him about two seasons ago along with most of my other travelling companions. even got two of them are here in this place with me.
we fell out of the sky from that ship to land right into some twisted cultist plot.
or i guess we were already in it by being on the ship in the first place?

Books, fine whiskey, an autumn evening.
Simple things are quite lovely.

tell me about scotland! do you think i'd like it?
no subject
You'd find places to enjoy, much sky and grass, and legends you'd wish to hunt down.
no subject

( don't activate her adventurer spirit, rowena. )

life's grander with room for wonder in it
( because karlach knows that kind of person too. the one that finds out the hard way. )
