Tales From the Tables ep. 42: Veil of Memories
Angela catches a glimpse beyond the veil of memories while her fate hangs by a thread.
So sorry this episode was so late! Lots of work on brand new, detailed backgrounds, plus the annual summer visit with my elderly parents back across the ocean... ;_;
Anyway, hope it was worth the wait! Lots of answers! And perhaps even more new questions, as the plot thickens some more!
If you're curious about more of Angela's backstory, TheForeverDM has a neat video about it :)

3.5 was edition I played the most. It was a reason why I quit RPGs for nearly a decade because I hated it so much.
Every time I see another meme about how amazing 3.5 Tarrasque is, I remmember how amogn actual 3.5 players Tarrasque was the biggest joke. It was always brought up as definite proof designers have no idea how to make good monster. It was laughably easy to beat. A wizard could casually solo it, the same abilities people now miss in 3.5 amounted to ribbons. It was a laughingstock, forums had 100+ pages discussions how to fix it and general consensus was it';s beyond saving. It was first proof in 3.5 if you cannot use magic you're only good to roll over and die.
I honestly don't know if everyone claiming 3.5 Tarrasque is such a horrifying monster are trying to rewrite history or unintentionally proving what a broken, unplayable pile of garbage 3.5 was, if it's biggest punching bag is actually dangerous in a different, better designed game.

Every time people lament changes to the lore that amount to "not every member of species X is irredeemably evil" and claim the game is removing villains from it, I think how villains of so-caleld evil species fall into two cathegories: a) bland and boring and b)have something else, unrelated to their species going on for them, that makes them interesting.

Elf: YOU ARE SO UGLY!
CLUMSY APE!
STUPID MAYFLY!
JUST DIE ALREADY!
Man: You say that you hate me. and yet you spend a lot of time around me.
No. perhaps
spend isn’t the
right word.
You pray for my downfall, but I don’t believe you understand.
I have already accepted my mortality, but you have not.
What will happen to you when I die?
Perhaps you'll realize that you have let your hatred of me consume you, and you’ll find that without me, your life lacks purpose.
Maybe it will hit you that you’ve spent an age enraged by me, and have never taken a moment to look up.
You may not lose any of your endless life, but the world moves on without you.
You’ve harassed me while historical events passed us by, as people you may have cared about have came and went. You may see your immortality as a sign of perfection, but it isn’t without its flaws.
With no sense of time, you feel no urgency to change.
You can spend centuries consumed with hatred, but eventually you’ll look up and realize what you’ve missed.
Eternity is a long time to bask in your regrets.
You'll forever be haunted by the memories you will never have.
My life isn’t permanent, but these moments will live on forever in your mind.
I have accepted the weight of my mortality, but you haven’t accepted the weight of the lack of yours.

Transcription:
A picture of a skinny female orc with the side of her head shaved. She wears an armless red dress and a black shawl, as well as matching red bracelets and a black choker with a gold heart at the front.
At the top of the image is the text "You may not like it, but this is what" in large bubble font
At the bottom of the image is a screenshot from the new D&D changelog, reading "• Orcs no longer have the Powerful Build feature."
And below that, the text "Peak 2024 D&D orc performance looks like" continues the bubble font from the top.

I don't actually know how controversial or not this might be, but it does annoy me mildly.
