My current character is a half elf, half dwarf who just looks human. Tall like an elf, thick like a dwarf. Round ears and beard from dwarf, graceful and lithe from the elf. All this comes together so he just looks like an average human male. So no matter how much he tries to fit in on either side, he's seen as some dude butting in. He's learning to adjust, how to introduce and conduct himself to be seen for what he is... a clockwork sorcerer lol (with a 1 lvl order cleric dip. So OP)
oh shit I have a half elf half dwarf as well, mines a woodland elf dwarf mix, theyre short like a dwarf and skinny like an elf usually is, theyre super pale, but also have insane amounts of hair, so they have 2 shave regularly and thin their if they wanna keep any sort of maintence lol.
But just imagine the devil/demon slowly bonding with the child so much, he becomes the best father in the world. Making a deal like normal, but instead of asking for things like souls, he asks for things like "Make sure your room is clean" or "Dont play your Xbox for more than 2 hours a day".
John Constantine, the master of causing contractual conflicts. Summon a demon to fight another demon. Contract a second demon to kill that one. Finish off the weakened victor.
He sold his soul to 3 different demons qnd when each came for his soul they found a big problem, then Lucifer told them to stop bitching and not fight or he will kill them, so they had to let Constantine go scot free. And that is why I love this drunken brithis asshole.
So, basically, Constantine sold his soul to 3 lords of hell, basically the rulers of hell, keeping it a secret from each as he was doing so. The 3 lords of hell found out, none of them wanted to relinquish their claim on Constantine's soul, but none of them could take it without starting a war with the other lords who also were sold his soul. So, he's basically prevented from dying because if he does die, he'll go to hell, and then they'd have to settle which of the three would get his soul, and thus start a war in hell. The only way to avoid this is if his soul somehow doesn't go to hell. Which is unlikely in most adaptations.
I do love the idea she shows up and teaches the child how to scam out all powerful beings in magical contracts, and both the witch and demon are like “ya as much as I hate her for tricking me, would kinda like my kid to understand those skills so they don’t get scammed like I did”
Playing as the son sounds so fun I love the idea of the first game where the whole party meets up and so it's the first two people heading up to the Old Witch's House to ask her a question or getting item or something she give it to them in return for them adventuring with her son who really doesn't want to do this but his mom forces him to due to her being worried he has no friends and he's just like what "kind of hard to have friends when you're the Sun of one of the kings of hell and your adoptive mom is The Witch of Sisaffila"
And they're half demon child Ends up becoming king Using the Magic, they've been taught to get rid of the competition, where they be their Own half siblings or some prominent political figure. Because, since they're the first born child, they perceive it as their birthright to inherit. The kingdom
Me and a friend did a similar duo. A woman sold her first born to a devil, as a servant of heck, and an angel as a warrior of light, well once the woman carried to term her soul was incinerated, and left to freshly born children, a teifling and a Aasimar, now this was in the grim hollow setting and our DM highly encouraged using its transformation systems, so the aasimar who grew up mor attached to the devil father, made a pact and became a warlock with the fiend transformation, and the teifling became a bard and accepting a gift from the angelic father becoming a searph himself. The campaign was incredibly fun and the dynamic of two brothers keeping each other in line was really fun to roleplay as well as being a good devil and evil angel.
i had a somewhat similar idea. 2 people each promised their firstborn child to 2 different entities. but then those 2 end up getting together. so now the child is 'promised' to 2 separate entities that are fighting over them. as a result, since neither entity can claim the child (to busy fighting each other) the child is able to grow up and (potentially) have their own say in the matter
Brilliant! Of course, both entities want the baby to stay with its birth couple until they win, otherwise the other entity might abscond with "their" prize. The parents, of course, mention nothing to the kid until they're old enough to process it healthily.
@@benjaminoechsli1941 precisely, yeah. Although for the parents im thinking more of a 'as the child grows each parent individually dreads the day that the entity will return for their child, why hasnt it yet, has it forgotten?" Basically both parents, individually know that their child could be taken away any day, but dont tell the other partner. This could manifest in multiple ways. For example both parents could decide that since it could all get snatched away at a moments notice, may as well.enjoy it while it lasts (and thus the pc has a fairly wholesome childhood) or they each independently decide to not get attached, so the pc grew up in a cold and distant household. Plenty of room for customizing
Make a deal with demon, ask demon what he wants FIRST, then tell demon you want whatever he wants. Regardless of how much of your soul he takes, you get it back instantly
You also gain nothing though. Besides don't make deals with a demon unless you've got some seriously fuckin powerful magic on hand. Unlike devils a demon can just decide that it no longer cares about the contract and just doesn't uphold its end or just straight up kills you... This is why you deal with devils, not demons and don't even get me started on the clusterfuck that is the fae
Warlock is a twin from a chain devil or other demon/devil who's patron is their twin who was given to the daddy because he was the more demonic looking one but the warlock was the one with the personality of a chain devil so he's made a pact as his siblings first warlock.
I played a character like this once, only that he had developed several issues due to their caretakers being interested only in using him for their gains and his mother treating him more like a pity case rather than a loved one, all to the point he called himself "Coin", for it was all he saw himself worth as. If there's something I've learned from DnD, is that angst is inevitable.
The Hexblood Race, who are how Hags make more Hags, have the Ancestral Lineage feature. So you can easily play a Hexblood Tiefling, which is exactly what you described here.
this has probably already been thought of, but character idea time! okay, so it's a duo, a high charisma goblin artificer with fast talk and a warforged mage. the warforged is hollow inside, and the goblin can jump in and piolet it like a giant mech suit, but also hop up on a turret, too. the warforged being a mage has access to wish at level 17 aswell being able to wish that the goblin doesn't need materials for his crafting being able to infinitely upgrade the warforged!
this could probably make a pretty decent idea for a high fantasy rom-com. A demon and a witch sharing custody over a child, feuding and but eventually starting to like eachother.
I want to see a comedy based on her getting pregnant and both the witch and the demon spend 9 months having to protect her from all sorts shenanigans to make sure the baby's okay
Would... would the kid become a bard just for, like, shits and giggles or to be like the mother but worse??? I have so many questions and all of them have hilarious answers i feel.
there are so many options, especially when you consider that the woman doesn't have to be human! What if the baby is half-elf, or half goblin? It could be anything, and grow up to favor one of three parents, or reject all three. Imagine how fun it would be to figure out what kind of person that kid is growing up to be?
Lmao. If your child is a demon raised by a witch or some s*ht like that and you, as an adventurer, are a absent parent the child is probably going to be a big bad evil guy you will have to defeat xD
This is honestly a great idea. I can imagine the child is supposed to be this bringer of death and ender of worlds but in reality all they want to do in be the best bard and play the lute
I love that idea. That sounds like a hilarious story. So far all I've heard that's similar would be the d&d party member making a deal that involves giving the demon or Fey a child of theirs.
this creates two characters a warlock who scammed a demon and a which without breaking either of their rules and a half demon who grows up in a witch’s household

Before I begin my actual comment, I would like to apologize in advance for my inadequate level of English proficiency. I am not a native speaker of the world's current lingua franca which unfortunately leads to me making numerous embarrassing mistakes being made whenever I attempt to communicate using this language. Whenever I am reminded of how I lack the ability to convey my thoughts in an eloquent manner I feel as though I have committed a cardinal sin, as though every English teacher in the world are simultaneously shaking their heads and sighing due to how utterly disappointed they are at me.
Although I know that saying sorry to those of you who are reading my comment will not change the fact that I fail miserably to write and speak perfect English, I am writing this as a way to deter a certain type of people who cannot stand poor English (Also known informally as "Grammar Nazis") from mocking me by posting unwanted and unnecessary comments detailing my every blunder. In my humble opinion, making grammatical errors should be perfectly acceptable as native speakers should not expect non-native speakers to be able to communicate in their second or third languages eloquently. If you are able to completely understand what the other person wrote, is there really a problem with what they've written? No, because the entire concept of communication is the exchange of information between other intelligent beings, which means that no matter how the exchange of information is made, as long as the information is accurately shared there is not a fundamental issue with their ability to communicate. To see it in another way, remember that someone who isn't fluent in English is fluent in another language. When you think about it this way, isn't it impressive for someone to speak a second language in any capacity? Having empathy and respect are qualities that are sorely missing for far too many people these days, especially on the internet.
That being said, I am aware that not all netizens who correct others are doing it to ridicule and shame. There are some who do so with the intent to help others improve and grow. However, displaying the failures of other people publicly will cause the person who is criticized to feel negative emotions such as shame and sadness due to the fact that their mistake has been made obvious which severely undermines the point they were trying to make in spite of their unfamiliarity with the English language. In most circumstances people are not looking for language help when they post anything online. Most people just want to enjoy themselves and have a good time on the internet which is why I would not encourage correcting other people regardless of your intentions. If you really do want to help others with their spelling or grammar, I would highly recommend you to help via messaging privately because not only will you not embarrass anyone, you can also go more in-depth with your explanation which I'm sure the other person will greatly appreciate if they want help, but I digress. I know that I've written a bit of an essay, but I hope I've made my points clear. Anyways, here is the comment I wanted to make:
@whateverwhocares3805 I'm regretful to state to you that I am unfamiliar to the word "copypasta", but I'll have you educated to the main point of this reply being that I am cursed with the inability to consume pasta. If that was the thesis of your statement.
@@elord420A “copypasta” is a popular trend on the internet, trend meaning done very often to the point of hilarity. This usually involves a block of text that netizens can copy, meaning to make a similar version of it, and paste, meaning to apply the similar version they made to a comment section much like this one. Your original comment does not appear to take the form of a copypasta, as I have not seen others replicate this style of text. I send my deepest condolences to you however, for being unable to consume pasta. It is a delightful dish with many different ingredients and flavours, and to hear one cannot consume any of those is an unfortunate reality.
Tax evasion is a moral good for the average person, large companies do it anyway why should the poor be left holding the bag? Corporations should be made to pay their fucking taxes and sued for the amount they owe. Meanwhile I hope each and every one of you find every loop hole and offshore account you can manage.

That just sounds like what Iggwilv, also known as Natasha the Dark or as we call her Tasha, does.

I want to imagine the witch and the demon are good friends and end up co-parenting the kid together
That woman used her riches to get richer, bought her way into politics and became the new queen.
And they're half demon child Ends up becoming king Using the Magic, they've been taught to get rid of the competition, where they be their Own half siblings or some prominent political figure. Because, since they're the first born child, they perceive it as their birthright to inherit. The kingdom
The true Evil Queen... 😂
With the right player, this would make for a legendary tiefling
This legit sounds like an isekai anime you’ll watch in one day
Me and a friend did a similar duo. A woman sold her first born to a devil, as a servant of heck, and an angel as a warrior of light, well once the woman carried to term her soul was incinerated, and left to freshly born children, a teifling and a Aasimar, now this was in the grim hollow setting and our DM highly encouraged using its transformation systems, so the aasimar who grew up mor attached to the devil father, made a pact and became a warlock with the fiend transformation, and the teifling became a bard and accepting a gift from the angelic father becoming a searph himself. The campaign was incredibly fun and the dynamic of two brothers keeping each other in line was really fun to roleplay as well as being a good devil and evil angel.
Yeeeesss
i had a somewhat similar idea. 2 people each promised their firstborn child to 2 different entities. but then those 2 end up getting together. so now the child is 'promised' to 2 separate entities that are fighting over them.
as a result, since neither entity can claim the child (to busy fighting each other) the child is able to grow up and (potentially) have their own say in the matter
Brilliant! Of course, both entities want the baby to stay with its birth couple until they win, otherwise the other entity might abscond with "their" prize. The parents, of course, mention nothing to the kid until they're old enough to process it healthily.
@@benjaminoechsli1941 precisely, yeah. Although for the parents im thinking more of a 'as the child grows each parent individually dreads the day that the entity will return for their child, why hasnt it yet, has it forgotten?"
Basically both parents, individually know that their child could be taken away any day, but dont tell the other partner. This could manifest in multiple ways. For example both parents could decide that since it could all get snatched away at a moments notice, may as well.enjoy it while it lasts (and thus the pc has a fairly wholesome childhood) or they each independently decide to not get attached, so the pc grew up in a cold and distant household.
Plenty of room for customizing
Witch: "Where did you get that?"
Child: "The weird lady of the woods gave it to me"
Witch: "You mind being a bit more specific?"
This was basically the backstory of my longest running character. Except it was Elder Fae not a demon.
She's got a serious debuff to those maternal instincts.
Make a deal with demon, ask demon what he wants FIRST, then tell demon you want whatever he wants. Regardless of how much of your soul he takes, you get it back instantly
You also gain nothing though. Besides don't make deals with a demon unless you've got some seriously fuckin powerful magic on hand. Unlike devils a demon can just decide that it no longer cares about the contract and just doesn't uphold its end or just straight up kills you... This is why you deal with devils, not demons and don't even get me started on the clusterfuck that is the fae
"I want eternal war"
"No, -I- want eternal war"
But then there was no real reason to make the deal. It's a wash.
Congrats, you gained the achievement of dealing with the devil.
The demon: "Oh... so that's what you were after..."
Player: *Level Up!
Double down and shake his hand before he processes what you said.
I feel like any witch would just have a sense of these things & be like “no no nope, NOT AGAIN SATAN”
Gray still plays
Warlock is a twin from a chain devil or other demon/devil who's patron is their twin who was given to the daddy because he was the more demonic looking one but the warlock was the one with the personality of a chain devil so he's made a pact as his siblings first warlock.
I played a character like this once, only that he had developed several issues due to their caretakers being interested only in using him for their gains and his mother treating him more like a pity case rather than a loved one, all to the point he called himself "Coin", for it was all he saw himself worth as.
If there's something I've learned from DnD, is that angst is inevitable.
Jesus fucking christ. I hope coin didnt have to deal with anymore bullshit
The Hexblood Race, who are how Hags make more Hags, have the Ancestral Lineage feature. So you can easily play a Hexblood Tiefling, which is exactly what you described here.
Even the Joker doesnt mess with the IRS. This woman is the true final boss.
Ah yes. Magical tax evasion. My favorite hobby.
I've seen players do the same thing with a fey contract and getting a demon princess knocked up.
I like too know that story
this has probably already been thought of, but character idea time! okay, so it's a duo, a high charisma goblin artificer with fast talk and a warforged mage. the warforged is hollow inside, and the goblin can jump in and piolet it like a giant mech suit, but also hop up on a turret, too. the warforged being a mage has access to wish at level 17 aswell being able to wish that the goblin doesn't need materials for his crafting being able to infinitely upgrade the warforged!
"Devil's advocate" has get a whole new meaning when a attorney show up at witch's door with a subpoena
Nah this has to be a gut punch. Kid Goes off looking for Mama and finds a disinterested 304 partying it up.
304?
@@HazeEmry Type it in a calculator and turn it upside down and read it.
I imagine that wouldn't be a surprise to the child, all things considered
this could probably make a pretty decent idea for a high fantasy rom-com. A demon and a witch sharing custody over a child, feuding and but eventually starting to like eachother.
Like the backstory of a hexblood tiefling
Half demon human that knows magic honestly sounds sick ngl
This player suplex'd a dragon: ua-cam.com/video/nEkrEnHP6ok/v-deo.html
I want to see a comedy based on her getting pregnant and both the witch and the demon spend 9 months having to protect her from all sorts shenanigans to make sure the baby's okay
so the real concept here is being the baby
Would... would the kid become a bard just for, like, shits and giggles or to be like the mother but worse??? I have so many questions and all of them have hilarious answers i feel.
there are so many options, especially when you consider that the woman doesn't have to be human! What if the baby is half-elf, or half goblin? It could be anything, and grow up to favor one of three parents, or reject all three. Imagine how fun it would be to figure out what kind of person that kid is growing up to be?
Lmao. If your child is a demon raised by a witch or some s*ht like that and you, as an adventurer, are a absent parent the child is probably going to be a big bad evil guy you will have to defeat xD
Or you join them telling them how proud you are of them.
The best backstory for a tiefling witch/wizard ever
Could you do this irl? Asking for a friend.
Just call up your local demon and witch...
Will do! Ehm I mean for my friend..
The voice he did with the aunt 😂😂😂😂😂 chefs kiss
This will be my next characters origin story I can feel it now
This is honestly a great idea. I can imagine the child is supposed to be this bringer of death and ender of worlds but in reality all they want to do in be the best bard and play the lute
There is a comic for this too.
There is?
SAUCE
And you don't tell us the sauce?
I have been looking for the comic and I JUST... CANT... FIND IT.
I know its on imgur. I have seen it. But it is lost to the past.
Sauce
I just find the idea of demons celebrating Christmas really funny
This sound like eda from the owl house
YES
OH GOD NO WONDER I LOVED THE CONCEPT SO MUCH 😂😂😂
Yeah...
I love that idea. That sounds like a hilarious story.
So far all I've heard that's similar would be the d&d party member making a deal that involves giving the demon or Fey a child of theirs.
Eda, go back to sleep
HOOT
NAH NOT EDA 😭😭😭
this creates two characters
a warlock who scammed a demon and a which without breaking either of their rules and a half demon who grows up in a witch’s household
I think it would be a neat idea to run a campaign where one player is the woman, but another player could be the child :)
I absolutely love this concept
How come this fits so well? I am thinking the kid might be either a fairy/hexblood/tiefling Fiendish Warlock....
i believe the reply to that from OP was "SHE IS NOW"
Ohhhh, this is an old old one from tumblr! The original poster made a short but really wholesome fic out of it years ago and now its a common prompt for a fic premise over there. Read a really good Katekyo Hitman Reborn fic based on it in like 2018
Do you have a link to the Og post,fic or user who made them
@meorsomething5732 hey i answered, and it seems to have been deleted? Probably because of the op's name. So if you google 'magical tax evasion post tumblr' in google images you can see the original post and the op's name 👍
Going to hell every other Christmas is how a lot of those split custody situations end up.
The Demon and the witch team up and the Woman's eternal life and riches are forfeited.
If this was a morality tale her eternal life and riches all get funnelled into trying to evade her demonic witch child's never ending war against humanity.
This is a solid character origin story with 3 built in NPCs: A crafty wizard mom, a devil dad, and a swamp hag who actually raised you for the first years of your life before the custody battles started. You began adventuring just to get away from it all.
this would be an AMAZING Anime!!!
just wait till he tells you about "the unsleeping city" villain
Before I begin my actual comment, I would like to apologize in advance for my inadequate level of English proficiency. I am not a native speaker of the world's current lingua franca which unfortunately leads to me making numerous embarrassing mistakes being made whenever I attempt to communicate using this language. Whenever I am reminded of how I lack the ability to convey my thoughts in an eloquent manner I feel as though I have committed a cardinal sin, as though every English teacher in the world are simultaneously shaking their heads and sighing due to how utterly disappointed they are at me.
Although I know that saying sorry to those of you who are reading my comment will not change the fact that I fail miserably to write and speak perfect English, I am writing this as a way to deter a certain type of people who cannot stand poor English (Also known informally as "Grammar Nazis") from mocking me by posting unwanted and unnecessary comments detailing my every blunder. In my humble opinion, making grammatical errors should be perfectly acceptable as native speakers should not expect non-native speakers to be able to communicate in their second or third languages eloquently. If you are able to completely understand what the other person wrote, is there really a problem with what they've written? No, because the entire concept of communication is the exchange of information between other intelligent beings, which means that no matter how the exchange of information is made, as long as the information is accurately shared there is not a fundamental issue with their ability to communicate. To see it in another way, remember that someone who isn't fluent in English is fluent in another language. When you think about it this way, isn't it impressive for someone to speak a second language in any capacity? Having empathy and respect are qualities that are sorely missing for far too many people these days, especially on the internet.
That being said, I am aware that not all netizens who correct others are doing it to ridicule and shame. There are some who do so with the intent to help others improve and grow. However, displaying the failures of other people publicly will cause the person who is criticized to feel negative emotions such as shame and sadness due to the fact that their mistake has been made obvious which severely undermines the point they were trying to make in spite of their unfamiliarity with the English language. In most circumstances people are not looking for language help when they post anything online. Most people just want to enjoy themselves and have a good time on the internet which is why I would not encourage correcting other people regardless of your intentions. If you really do want to help others with their spelling or grammar, I would highly recommend you to help via messaging privately because not only will you not embarrass anyone, you can also go more in-depth with your explanation which I'm sure the other person will greatly appreciate if they want help, but I digress. I know that I've written a bit of an essay, but I hope I've made my points clear. Anyways, here is the comment I wanted to make:
Lol
Perfect
What the hell is this copypasta? 😂
@whateverwhocares3805 I'm regretful to state to you that I am unfamiliar to the word "copypasta", but I'll have you educated to the main point of this reply being that I am cursed with the inability to consume pasta. If that was the thesis of your statement.
@@elord420A “copypasta” is a popular trend on the internet, trend meaning done very often to the point of hilarity. This usually involves a block of text that netizens can copy, meaning to make a similar version of it, and paste, meaning to apply the similar version they made to a comment section much like this one. Your original comment does not appear to take the form of a copypasta, as I have not seen others replicate this style of text. I send my deepest condolences to you however, for being unable to consume pasta. It is a delightful dish with many different ingredients and flavours, and to hear one cannot consume any of those is an unfortunate reality.
Bro, your english is PRETTY good
"You are not the father!"
*Telepathically snaps the host's neck*
Tax evasion is a moral good for the average person, large companies do it anyway why should the poor be left holding the bag?
Corporations should be made to pay their fucking taxes and sued for the amount they owe.
Meanwhile I hope each and every one of you find every loop hole and offshore account you can manage.
They should make it twice or thrice the amount owed to make it simply not worth it to evade taxes
Honestly the traffic and noise just makes it feel more authentic. 10/10 immersion
How do you properly run Pumpkinhead?
i think i'm gonna steal this character concept for my next campaign
More?
Awfully bold to assume neither the demon nor the witch had malicious reasons to buy a baby.
I want someone to create *a GENUINELY funny* webtoon with this concept.
It turns into a romantic comedy where the witch and demon come together for the sake of the kid only to fall in love like it's a christmas movie
Ah, the Constantine method of making deals
The mom pops from time to time with amazing business opportunities that will yield great results in little time, and only requires Timmy to bring 10 more friends under him, and those friends to get other 10 friends each
The woman should have some kind of hereditary curse, such as lycanthropy, and be a exotic race, like a kitsune, so in the end the player character looks like a DeviantART OC.
Even funnier.
I would love to play that half-demon.
Imagine if that kid become worlock and his father become his patron
I love how the custody arrangement implies that both the demon and the witch celebrate Christmas!
Now that’s one hell of a sorcerer warlock multiclass explanation
The fact this was originally a tumblr post writing prompt
I could actually see this turning into a good story, imagine how powerful that childs gonna be all grown up
I honestly love this idea. Great as the backstory of a spellcaster.
That just sounds like what Iggwilv, also known as Natasha the Dark or as we call her Tasha, does.
For those who don’t know, Tasha is a human Witch who ascended into a Archfey whom was raised by Baba Yaga and fell in love with a the Demon Prince Grazz’t and had many children with him. Their relationship would be best described as a “Mr and Mrs smith”.
Funnily enough, I’ve made a Tiefling wild-magic Sorcerer character who was supposed to be their son who was raised by Baba Yaga and occasionally visited his father.
Your weird new jersey vodka aunt accent is really good
This is genuinely beautiful
Alright I'm using this for a characters backstory now lmao
After watching this, i made a PC EXACTLY like this; He's a Tiefling Artificer/Sorcerer named *Anthony "Tony" Deville*
He's currently 8th level(4 each class) and in the early part of *Curse Of Stradh* ....
This feels strangely wholesome for some reason
IM SAVING THIS FOR OUR NEW DND GAME
I love how magical tax evasion still implies normal tax evasion
