Mini Rant Regarding The Emperor
NOT an Emperor Hate Post
So, I spent way too much of my time today before work (my fault) explaining to someone that The Emperor showing up without a shirt is not some 5D chess strategy he’s been planning for days and/or weeks to manipulate the player into transforming. The “logic” being that he was intimidating in his armor and was carefully trying to appear more human over time, waiting for the right moment to show up half-naked to appear less threatening and make the player feel at ease with becoming an illithid, instead of, you know, an obvious seduction!
There’s just no evidence that this was some sort of carefully laid out plan. He showed you his soup recipe, his fork, his seashell because despite believing that sentimentality is beneath him, he’s actually quite sentimental himself, and believing you two are closer now, he tries to deepen the relationship.
I don’t understand this insistence from so many players that The Emperor is some mastermind manipulator whose every word or gesture is a carefully planned scheme, rather than admit that he has any nuance or humanity.
I could say more, but not tonight.
Edit: Can’t spell

Camp life seems to suit the young owlbear. His coat of feathers seems fuller. His eyes look bright and inquisitive.
