I’m in charge of both the inventory and the NPC list in our campaign- on three separate occasions I’ve thrown the entire party off by pulling out a potion everyone else entirely forgot we had
My character: Could you make a health potion but make it taste different Morelia: Oh no, I can't do that Morelia later: I can make potions taste like pretty much anything My character: D:
I said almost the exact same thing. Me: I'm just looking to restock on health potions Morelia: I can't do that! Me: It's a health potion tho? Morelia: That I can do
Morelia is a delight. She's just so kind and friendly, and I can't help but want to assist her in making the best potions possible. 10/10 would buy potions from again.
Morelia: Do you have any bits and Bob's from monsters you've faught? My character: No I most of the people I fight are, well, people. Morelia: Actually, that could be quite useful. (I can't believe this was what i improved first time i watched it🤣)
@@GinnyDi or a heroic modern medicine turn, organs can save lives. 1 time I roleplayed (with GM permission) that my artificer casting revivify was actually a heart transplant, and since I spent a turn getting said heart the GP cost was halved.
Morelia: do you have any bits and bobs from a monster you've fought recently? My character, a rogue that multiclassed into a necromancy wizard: I have seven goblin skulls, three of which are studded with diamonds, i've heard they don't work very well though. Morelia: oh that's useful actually My character: *Takes notes on how to use goblin skulls*
Morelia: "Were you your parents' first child?" My rogue that got abandoned as a baby and was raised by a pair of halfling thieves: "Yeah....see, that's kinda complicated..."
My barbarian tribe member turned life cleric turned warlock of the 'undying': Geez. Uhhh... I don't know? The first as this body or as the soul? Also, does reincarnation affect anthing? What about immaculate conception?
Honestly, the most "fantasy" part of this is that any character of mine could walk into a witch's cottage, with a clear idea of what they needed; my characters tend to the "y'know, now that I'm trapped in this web, a universal solvent WOULD be quite handy" camp. Great job as always!
Morelia: Potion of flying. The only thing is, since it's starting to get stale it might wear off a bit early which means, of course, that you drop out of the sky. Me: Oh, so it transforms into a potion of surprise plummeting..... wonderful video and a great addition to the Ginny-verse. :)
You too, huh? Did we all just blast a bunch of sassy songbirds at the same time? Kinda curious if she needs any Slaad parts, my Profane Soul Hexblood encountered a couple back in town that are still... mostly fresh.
Accepting no coin, but instead telling the adventurer what the NPC needs was brilliantly executed. I really enjoy your videos - this one in particular made me a bit nostalgic for the old video games, where they would put prerecorded video segments.
I actually have been planning to make a Barbarian who actually specializes in potion-making so throughout the RP I was thinking of what he was saying. Great work! Can't wait to see what you come up with next!
I just love her. ❤ but then again I also play a gentle-hearted forest gnome maiden with flowing hair who almost exclusively wears green, brown, and white 😉🌿🌱 Fern would find Morelia a kindred spirit, methinks.
Morelia is so savvy about acquiring ingredients. I've already offered her a regular supply of ant mandibles after the shrinking potion. and she's still rattling off a list of other things she would like :D. It is welcoming though, having a shopping list of things to be unloaded if they are come across. A variety of things to help out a member of the community with, perhaps for some coin or potions supply.
Damn that’s a good English accent, perhaps too good, the “I’ll be with you in a moment” just made me feel like I was at the pharmacy picking up my medicine, freaked the hell out of me instant flashbacks of standing awkwardly infront of someone not knowing where to look and winding up reading random labels and text off signs
This was lovely! I really like Morelia. I think for another POV something where the player is choosing loot from a horde or inquiring about a specific wondrous item might be really cool. My main PC sure loves treasure- but if she had to choose between it and something else? That's when the interesting answers come up.
My char: asks for a carrot flavoured potion Morelia: *reaches for an orange coloured phial* 👀 Do you... actually read minds? Jokes aside, very cute char and vid ^^
I enjoy the inclusion of the timer that you added. Also these are great for getting in character. I've used them to help my partner as they are just getting into role playing and have had trouble finding their character's voice and these have helped immensely.
I've taken to using these videos as practice for fleshing out potential characters I keep coming up with (I don't have a problem, you have a problem, shut up). It's great for figuring out if a character is too one-dimensional or narrow-minded. Thanks Ginny!
Homebrew moke genasi "I can condense myself to shrink so no, yes??" "I don't breathe so waterbreathing wouldn't be useful" "I have been hovering off the ground this whole time flying won't be of much use" "I don't have a fully physical form my hands are,smoke"
Morelia: What kind of potion are you looking for? Harmony, my tiefling vampire spawn wizard: This may be a long shot, but could you perhaps make one that allows a vampire to walk in the sunlight without turning into a pile of ash? Asking for a friend. Morelia: You must be joking, there's gotta be something else. Harmony: Figures. Well, then perhaps a potion that repels creeps who don't know how to keep their hands to themselves? Also for that same friend. Morelia: Ah, that I can do.
I don't know about useful, but what sprang to mind was two gladiators meeting before being summoned into a colosseum arena. They don't know if they're going to meet in battle, but they have time to kill before the next round, and one strikes up a conversation for... whatever reason; maybe secret nerves. With clerics on hand; death is rare, but it's still nerve-wracking preparing for blood sport.
I'm playing a small howling with a height complex and the "have you been shrunk before" and "are you afraid of heights?" Definitely would have set him off lol Very fun nonetheless
"Were you your parents' firstborn?" My tabaxi who was found as an infant hidden under a hastily placed pile of branches and leaves in the woods by a human couple who couldn't have children on their own, who then promptly adopted him: Well,
Okay I already loved her but she got even better she’s so sweet!!!! And it was an interaction that would fit with my character!!! Some of the questions would strike a chord but it would be good for her to talk to another witch. She’d definitely be a returning customer always bringing in extra supplies and she’d be sure to always give the cat his much deserved scritches!!!!
Awesome as always, Ginny! Speaking of love potions... Our group refer to Philter of Love as the "Magical Date Rape Drug." The idea of getting someone to drink a thing that overrides their ability to consent seems a little less fun when you think about it.
Awww, my no-nonsense warlock Nona would be utterly dumbfounded by Morelia's liveliness, but I'd like to think they'd both let their cat familiars meet and play together (out of the shop where no ingredients can be dropped, hopefully!) This was a great roleplay, Morelia is adorable!
I'm playing as a changeling rogue in our campaign and he's absolutely ransacked a hags hut, along with completing a quest netting him around 10 healing potions and a few of poison, he'd try to completely merch all them for that precious precious gold
I was literally thinking of responses the whole time and think I may have created a character out of those responses this is very helpful. I also love the outfit, wig and set. You can tell you put a lot of thought into it.
I might actually do this one with my brand new character Wysper! She's a warlock who does not like her patron and is desperate to find a way to get rid of her powers. I actually find this POV very fitting for Wysper due to certain questions and some comments about hands. Her arcane focus and sign of her pact with her patron is that her hands are stained black, which she tries to hide by wearing gloves all the time. Hopefully I get the chance to make a video response to this with Wysper some time!
Thank Ginny! First time doing this and for my necromancer it was a delight to talk with Morelia, he's always a bit grumpy and sarcastic so finding someone genuine as her it's good for him. Oh and btw, the potion was for a Charisma boost :P
My tiefling wizard has huge chunks of her memory missing from trauma related events when she was in her 20s so much so she thinks she is younger than she actually is. But also couldn't remember if she had any siblings. It's well something...
The "Ginny Di Cinematic Universe"?? Oh hell yeah! And two sisters? Like the D&D Charmed Ones. ;) Morelia is SO MUCH FUN. My current campaign ("War of the Witch Queens") features witches from all over the multiverse, Morelia will HAVE to make a cameo appearance. Certainly, the characters will need some potions and the friendly neighborhood wood witch seems like the best bet. Thank you for doing these!
Ideas: Tilly, Nymwen would be a good pick for the Halloween season, a lonely ghost who won't let you go until you've entertained them (writing a book you see), a villain that loves to talk/monologue, an overly personable shopkeep that sells you things you don't need but is convinced you do, a gate guard who can't let you in cuz you just missed the curfew (but mayhap they can send a word to their superior), a werewolf that will decide whether to turn you/let you go/eat you based on how you answer (or so they say), a tavernkeep who tells the local ghost stories- all of them true.
I played this with my dnd character, who is a witch(sorcerer) that comes from a society where casters are distrusted and discriminated against. It was nice for her to talk with Morellia. Since she was a witch too she was the first person in a while that my character could be open and relaxed around, and she opened up quite a bit more than she usually does. It was also cool cause she could relate to Morellia talking about potions and ingredients. It was cool to see her in that situation.
Great as always! I just signed up for the annual pass for World Anvil using your code! I figure if my players are constanly canceling our play sessions, I can play on this to keep myself in the world, and then hand it off to them to play as well!
My Favorite thing about your RP NPCs is that they aren't overtly antagonistic.. even if you know they're dangerous (or evil) they're not grilling you or bullhead or interrogating you, in their questioning...
I would love to see a tailor or seamstress video! Maybe the adventurer has come in seeking a special new cloak or simply some repairs to their favorite tunic? That is a side of the d&d world we rarely get to see but obviously need. They would have so many stories about their clients!
My character: a potion of invisibility. A strong one. Witch: I cant do that without three months and a vial of fire snake blood. My character: *Stares daggers*
These videos are super fun and helpful! I've just started DMing, and making stuff up on the fly is a bit daunting. I like having this practice as various npcs, to really get into the feel of these characters and make the game more fun
Morelia is my favorite of your npc's. She's just so much fun to talk to and stuff. She's nice, charming, and light hearted. I am planning on using her as a recurring character in my game - if my players allow it ofc.
My current (and for now, only) Character is an Artificer who isn't really fond of "magic" as most people perceive it, but his nephew that he's taking care of during the game is a child mage. It was fun to imagine how this grumpy bastard would respond, and it helped me with my rolplaying. This was fun!
I love these POV RP videos. They're great for practing RP and figuring out your own characters in a low stress environment. Can't wait to see the next one.
Wonderful addition! :) In the future, I'd love to see a POV with Mariska, from the D&D Goes Domestic video. Treat yourself to using a pre-existing character from the GDCU, eh? Plus having her ask about the PC's spending habits and such could be very useful for fleshing out shopping trips, something that's so often completely optimized. Do you tend to save a lot of money, are you a haggler, do you generally find things to sell to shopkeepers, do you build relationships with merchants... and, of course, are you a gambler.
LOL My first thought was the shirt reminded me of the original Bewitched series and I was about to try scrolling the image down to see the whole design! 😅 Love these videos!
I love Morelia so much! Her questions were unique and definitely made me think! In the vein of "brewing something up" for someone, I wonder how a RP video with a bartender or barista trying to mix up a drink for someone would be - a tavern or coffee shop both seem like great places for some conversation.
This one was a lot of fun answering from the pov of my alchemist character, who was looking for something a bit more mystical than what her elixirs could typically do
First one of these I've ever done and I really do think this would help me know what my character would say in these situations. The Heights one I had to think about and I eventually ended up deciding that she's afraid of falling from such heights. Which is funny considering she has a shield that will prevent her from taking fall damage.
@@Randomness823 That's such a cool idea that I wish that was the case. Sadly I was just given to me by the dm for me to able to basically fight off an evil bird version of me. But she's definitely going to want to keep the shield close to her.
Which one would be more useful? My wild mage/druid: ehhh... Breathing under water, I guess. Wait do you have to drink the heroism or can you splash someone with it?
Potions are probably the most practical and quick magic there is. No incantations, meditation or intervention necessary, just down the hatch! Or splash it on like cologne (ablution), or whatever. I really like these, Ginny, one could build a campaign on your characters alone! If you haven't already, rolling up a sheet for them might be fun... EDIT: A mermaid POV might be interesting, maybe have the viewer answer the right way to avoid attack and/or consumption. ; )
Honestly this series is, in my opinion, some of your best work! I'm actually surprised that no one has thought of it by now, excellent work as usual Ginny

Morelia: Are you suspicious or do you give people the benefit of the doubt?
Me: You sure are asking a lot of questions ...
"Cream cheese, but can you do that without adding dairy?"
"I can do that!"
This is my new favorite person.
The potion in question does nothing, it just tastes like cream cheese, without dairy.
when you think about it, cooking is just alchemy
Lmfao, my character also requested no dairy!
Same reaction from me.
i requested no nuts
@@devinwhite5064 So is chemistry!

Hey at least it's better than some blood soaked coins my wizard has for reasons...
Dang, if you haven't already, look up demi lich in the monster manual. Your necromancer is going to love those skulls.
Morelia: "Were you your parents' first child?"

Great job as always!
Morelia: Potion of flying. The only thing is, since it's starting to get stale it might wear off a bit early which means, of course, that you drop out of the sky.
Me: Oh, so it transforms into a potion of surprise plummeting.....
wonderful video and a great addition to the Ginny-verse. :)
She did say she was having a two for one deal!
Lol
My character, who is afraid of hights, was SCREAMING at that point🤣
How about a chatty armour-repair-person, or a personal stylist charged with making the PC presentable for a big event (the PC can be reluctant)?
PLEASE, I would LOVEEEEE one about clothes..........
Edit: and fancy outings and social comfort and party food and dancing and and and......

Great as always! I just signed up for the annual pass for World Anvil using your code! I figure if my players are constanly canceling our play sessions, I can play on this to keep myself in the world, and then hand it off to them to play as well!
My Favorite thing about your RP NPCs is that they aren't overtly antagonistic.. even if you know they're dangerous (or evil) they're not grilling you or bullhead or interrogating you, in their questioning...
I would love to see a tailor or seamstress video! Maybe the adventurer has come in seeking a special new cloak or simply some repairs to their favorite tunic? That is a side of the d&d world we rarely get to see but obviously need. They would have so many stories about their clients!
My character: a potion of invisibility. A strong one.
Witch: I cant do that without three months and a vial of fire snake blood.
My character: *Stares daggers*
That one bard: LITERALLY Stares Daggers
These videos are super fun and helpful! I've just started DMing, and making stuff up on the fly is a bit daunting. I like having this practice as various npcs, to really get into the feel of these characters and make the game more fun
I'm convinced Ginny is working some witchcraft and each of us is seeing a personalized video
The English Accent is very well done; and the costume, set and script are all excellent. Drawing and sheathing the spoon was very smooth.
Morelia is my favorite of your npc's. She's just so much fun to talk to and stuff. She's nice, charming, and light hearted. I am planning on using her as a recurring character in my game - if my players allow it ofc.
My current (and for now, only) Character is an Artificer who isn't really fond of "magic" as most people perceive it, but his nephew that he's taking care of during the game is a child mage. It was fun to imagine how this grumpy bastard would respond, and it helped me with my rolplaying. This was fun!
I love these POV RP videos. They're great for practing RP and figuring out your own characters in a low stress environment. Can't wait to see the next one.
Wonderful addition! :) In the future, I'd love to see a POV with Mariska, from the D&D Goes Domestic video. Treat yourself to using a pre-existing character from the GDCU, eh? Plus having her ask about the PC's spending habits and such could be very useful for fleshing out shopping trips, something that's so often completely optimized. Do you tend to save a lot of money, are you a haggler, do you generally find things to sell to shopkeepers, do you build relationships with merchants... and, of course, are you a gambler.
I love that your shirt looks like Halloween Rachel Maksy speeding away on a Vespa 😂 also this series is my favourite thing ever!!!
LOL My first thought was the shirt reminded me of the original Bewitched series and I was about to try scrolling the image down to see the whole design! 😅 Love these videos!
Omg that’s so cute you’re right!
I love Morelia so much! Her questions were unique and definitely made me think! In the vein of "brewing something up" for someone, I wonder how a RP video with a bartender or barista trying to mix up a drink for someone would be - a tavern or coffee shop both seem like great places for some conversation.
This is so creative and entertaining! I'd watch a hundred of these.
This set is so CUTE i want to LIVE HERE !!
This one was a lot of fun answering from the pov of my alchemist character, who was looking for something a bit more mystical than what her elixirs could typically do
It's wild how much this series has popped off and gotten popular. Go Ginny!
Glad she remembered the quest we did for her, over 7 months later!
are you hiding a secret is an AWESOME question!!! thank you thank you thank you!!!
I use these for my novel characters. It really helps! Also a Varient of her will make it in my novel. She's sweet.
First one of these I've ever done and I really do think this would help me know what my character would say in these situations.
The Heights one I had to think about and I eventually ended up deciding that she's afraid of falling from such heights. Which is funny considering she has a shield that will prevent her from taking fall damage.
That could be why she was drawn to it!
@@Randomness823 That's such a cool idea that I wish that was the case. Sadly I was just given to me by the dm for me to able to basically fight off an evil bird version of me. But she's definitely going to want to keep the shield close to her.
@@Mary_Studios maybe it wasn't the reason she obtained it, but instead the reason she kept it? If you're still wanting to play with that idea
Which one would be more useful?
My wild mage/druid: ehhh... Breathing under water, I guess. Wait do you have to drink the heroism or can you splash someone with it?
Do you have bits or bobs?
My character, who makes the most out of any kill: Do I!?
Potions are probably the most practical and quick magic there is. No incantations, meditation or intervention necessary, just down the hatch! Or splash it on like cologne (ablution), or whatever.
I really like these, Ginny, one could build a campaign on your characters alone! If you haven't already, rolling up a sheet for them might be fun...
EDIT: A mermaid POV might be interesting, maybe have the viewer answer the right way to avoid attack and/or consumption. ; )
Honestly this series is, in my opinion, some of your best work! I'm actually surprised that no one has thought of it by now, excellent work as usual Ginny
You do such a great job with these! The scripting is really really good, and the execution too!
Morelia reminds me of my Firbolg Druid, Flora. All cheery and good vibes. I think if those two ever met they would be great friends. ♥
I love Morelia and look forward to you having an opportunity to have her interact with one of your other characters as well.
I was wondering just which character though! It's a tough decision! :|
@@kennashey, Edith is the most likely case (with the whole thing about Love Potions) though I could see it with Augury as well.
Okay, this might be my new favorite of all your characters! Absolutely charming!
2:40 she start exactly with my favorite potion
I really love these videos. As a DM I encourage my players to watch them. I think it helps them to get into their characters better.
Yes! I love this type of videos! Morelia was my favourite of your elf NPC video
