Hey Annika, I'm so sorry I missed this comment when you first sent it! I wanted to answer even though I'm late. This is a great point — of course my language always feels clear to me when I'm writing something, but I completely see how it's confusing now that you've outlined these options. My intention was your "A" option: That Bryndis takes the damage in place of the ally, and the damage she takes is reduced by 1d10.

OBSESSED with both of these lovely ladies. I was wondering about how you imagine Be The Bulwark working, as the wording feels a little ambiguous. It states "she can use her reaction to interpose herself and take that damage instead... The damage is reduced by 1d10." So if for instance 11 damage was rolled and the d10 rolled 7 for the Bulwarking, would the result be: A - Bryndis takes 4 damage, Ally takes 0 damage (Bryndis takes the damage which is reduced) B - Bryndis takes 7 damage, Ally takes 4 damage (the rolled number is reduced from the Ally and taken by Bryndis instead) C - Bryndis takes 0 damage, Ally takes 4 damage (the damage is simply reduced by her intervention, but she is not injured in the process)

I had to make a real effort to not make Bryndis into a Gideon-clone!! Redheaded, funny swordswoman who would lay down her life for her necrom-- I mean, princess? Hmm 😅 By now I think they've developed in different directions, but Gideon was definitely in my inspirations!

EXCITED!! I just finished Gideon the Ninth, so I am more than ready for a Kiliren/Bryndis novel!

Errors or inconsistencies, you say? I highly doubt they exist, but it'll be good to go over anyway and piece together their separate and shared lore.

Oooo this is so good. We'll worth the wait to fully learn more about them. Would totally be down for more Solstice Vale content... Sounds like such an awesome setting!
