August 2018 - Side Stories Poll!
Well now that I've finished my side stories for this month, time to offer it for the next month! Hah...if I ever need to take a break I'll take it, so don't worry about me. But this does feel like extra credit homework sometime. I'd better get an A+ for this.
Anyways, I'm offering repeats of last side stories with one more to fill in the missing gap. I could offer other stories if the outcry is great enough--let me know if you really want to go back to Flos or Rhir or Baleros or something.
Until then, vote! I'm thinking of banning skeletons, white Gnolls, and Pisces from the polls since they always win. Or maybe offer a poll with only those three options. Food for thought!

Dear Wizards, I carelessly allowed a young, non verbal child to look into a certain ancient book of magic that i happen to have. Now she keeps making plants grow everywhere. What can i do? ---Mowing My Pillow. Dear Mowing, We at Wistram have constantly warned people about spellbooks. Even though all of our students come to us with some understanding of magic to begin with, we test them every step of the way before allowing them to study additional spells. That being said, once someone has managed to receive something from a given spellbook, it cannot be lost. The child cannot be stripped of the ability to grow plants, all you can do is make sure she can control the spell and use it responsibly. Furthermore, it may be necessary to give her access to the book one more time to ensure she reads and comprehends the first chapter because that is where all the instructions on the proper discipline of spellcasting is. Also, you should start putting aside money now so that when she is old enough you can send her to us.
Screw it. I'm giving Selys her chance at the limelight.
Curious as to what Letters entails. I’m hoping its various Wistram alumni reporting sightings of earthlings.
Eh I doubt Octavia would win.... But, I really like hearing from characters who can expand our knowledge of life in this world.... Octavia would be one of those people! A smart take on what the world is like. That's why Pisces and Lyonette are great too!
Other stories I'd be most interested in earthlings. IIRC there was a prisoner mentioned way back in VOL1 before Ryoka chapters got started that we never heard more about. Otherwise Pisces or Lyonette because we learn the most about innworld mechanics from them.
It's time for a new POV! Vote for everybody's favorite scam arti--- I mean stringbusinesswomen.
I'm sure calruz is more part of the primary plot, so if I had a side character not him, I'd hands down love to hear from our Emperor or King. They make my heart swell the most.
I'm very curious what "Letters to Wistram" might involve. I can think of quite a few things...
Definitely would like to go back to Flos. Specifically, want to see more exploration of the question, is he trying to bring peace to the world and he does harsh things because he thinks he has to, or is he just a power hungry monster? Similar question for Gazi, last time we saw her she seemed to have a good side, which seems at odds with her murdering Gnolls in Liscor with very little provocation. I like how these characters are hard to pin down or put in a bucket
There’s a certain emperor that i’m thirsting for :3
I really want the strategist
