So since making this book, I've started playing as Lunara (aka my paladin)

I finally got her face claim to work, and it's pictured at the beginning of this chapter.

When I made her, she had to be level 1, because that's what my friend was starting us out at (we're doing the Stormwreck Isle campaign)

So, when I first made her, I couldn't pick a fighting style for her just yet.

We've done two sessions, and now she has leveled up to level 2. So I got to pick out a fighting style for her.

I deliberated with my buddy the DM for quite a bit, and I decided to go for Blessed Warrior [TCE] because he thought due to the way I'm portraying her, it'd fit best.

Which brings me to my next point: her new cantrips and spells!

So, I got to pick two cleric cantrips for Lunara due to me picking the style I picked for her. I chose Sacred Flame and Toll the Dead. One does radiant damage, the other does necrotic. So that'll be fun.

Along with those, I finally got to pick some spells for her. I chose Divine Favor (which lets her weapon attacks deal an extra 1d4 radiant damage on a hit for 1 minute) and Thunderous Smite (which on the first hit with a melee weapon attack during this spell's duration, it creates a thunderous sound that's audible within 300 feet of her, and it deals an extra 2d6 thunder damage.) Both are bonus actions, so ideally I could do either of them first, and then with my action I can do the stabby stab with her Seafarer's Trident and deal more than just the 1d6 + 5 piercing damage.

Next, the feat I decided to add to her.

So since she's a silver dragonborn, she has a breath attack that does 2d8 cold damage on a failed dexterity saving throw. She can do it twice since her proficiency bonus is a +2. (And she used it to kill some zombies that were attacking some civilians. Just two attacks, two failed checks, and a ton of cold damage.)

With the feat I added to her (called Dragon Fear) she can use one of her breath weapon attacks to do a roar instead, causing whatever she's fighting to become frightened for 1 minute if it fails a wisdom saving throw.

Finally, there's the matter of what song I think fits her best.

First song, my new favorite song, is I'm Good (Blue) by David Guetta and Bebe Rexha.

Second is arguably my favorite song from volume 7 of RWBY, it's War by Jeff Williams featuring Casey Lee Williams, Adrienne Cowan, Dawn M Bennett, & Erin Reilly

Next time we level up, I'll get to pick an oath for Lunara. And I think (if the 5e companion app lets me) I'll go for Oath of the Ancients.

I'm really trying to get her an animal friend, but seeing as her animal handling modifier is 0, I probably won't get that wish.

Anyway, that's it for this update on Lunara! I'm working very hard on The Walking Dead chapter, and I'm also thinking of doing two other chapters, one where I list their spells/cantrips and one where I put down my inspiration for each of my characters. I was going to do a backstory chapter, but seeing as I only really made big backstories for Karen & Alycia, I don't think that's gonna happen.

Coming soon: My Characters in The Walking Dead, Spells & Cantrips, and Character Inspiration.
