Forgive me if this is too personal a question for such a public space, but: has anyone else experienced a change in their dreams after arriving here?

	Perhaps, but He does not grant me magic for my service, only the promise that I will one day be at his side. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	It's still a deal, just one with different terms. Think about it. Not all tieflings go around dancing with demons, you know. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	I'm a tiefling. Hang on, you weren't just being an anti-tiefling racist? What was all that about demons for then? Why would you assume that? I thought it was the skin and the horns that did it. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Demons seek to physically enter the world, often via possession, something that happens when one makes a deal with them. Usually they promise power or whatever you desire and in return they possess you, it sounds similar to your deal with your patron. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

Yeah, that sounds like a mess I wouldn't want to get involved in. My patron doesn't possess me. I follow him, like clerics and paladins follow their gods. He speaks to me very occasionally and asks me to do a quest, but if I said no, he couldn't make me. If I always said no I'd just be...outside his grace or whatever. He wouldn't be impressed.

Being possessed by anyone would suck.

	In my world, magic isn't a thing that can be gifted in such a way. (Reply to this) (Parent)
