Jornir : Fun Fact! The average person will walk by 36 murderers in their lifetime.

Queenie : I like how this is a "fun" fact.

Taishen: It's fun because they didn't decide to murder you.

3 AM ramblings, explaining all the LOA Icebound characters vibes using my tired ADHD brain:

🐝Queenie🐝 - Queenie is the embodiment of friend or foe but she takes it to one step further of you will be my friend or you will perish. I would rather be on the friend side because she would never let me feel bad about myself, makes a mean carrot cake, and is probably the best snuggler on the team. Queenie is also seemingly unaffected by hangovers, she's just like that all the time and it is great.

🦈Barnabos🦈 - Barnabos is that one really weird but really cool uncle that is ungodly amounts of rich for no reason. He lets you get away with all the shit your parents would disapprove of and then yells at your parents when they yell at you. He teaches you how to do shots, teaches you how to cook, takes you to get your first tattoo, and is the only relative to give you a Christmas gift that is something you actually want. He is also the person you take with you to pride parades and knows way too much about the queer community for you to not raise an eyebrow.

🥃Skrimm🥃 - He's pathetic and I love him. I want to ring him out like a wet dish towel then slap him against the edge of my sink, and only ever use him out of all my dish towels cause he's the favorite. His dog is nightmare baby, and he fights with Barnabos like an old lady fights with her husband, he truly is an overly ripe fruit.

🌸Taishen🌸 - He's a baby. I don't care about how old he is, he is a baby. He does not know much and that is alright, because me too buddy.

❄Jornir❄ - father. As in this man is a single father to 5 kids, goes to church on Sundays, and makes you soup when you're sick. He's not the best but he's trying his best and that's damn good enough. He also gives the best dad bear hugs, Queenie you hug for fun, Jornir you hug when you're sad. It's the type of hug that squeezes all the sadness out of you along with all the oxygen. Rhe test results are in, Jornir is the father.

(I put these last two at the end to avoid spoilers)

🌼Daisy🌼 - Daisy is the best friend not everyone deserves, but everyone needs. She knows all the hottest gossip, and will tell you all of it. I want to have a sleepover with her so badly because it would be the best shit talking session of my life. She would also drag you to McDonald's at 2 AM if you said one remotely bad thing about yourself and you would come back with a new tattoo, a mystery bruise, and 3 new numbers in your phone. We all need a friend like Daisy.

🧪Ket🧪 - This man has handcuffed himself to the group and swallowed the key. Nobody really wants him there but he's kinda insisting on going with the group and it is making everyone uncomfortable. He did alright in the play, his backstory is very tragic, I like his accent, and I'm sure he'll grow on everyone, but right now the vibes are off. He has a pretty cool sword though so he may stay.

Maybe this is 3:30 AM brain, but nobody ever talks about how Mace from LOA pulls some of the biggest power moves (whether that be accidental or intentional)(spoilers for Icebound and Once Upon a Witchlight):

Gideon's entire character backstory is one power move, because yeah trauma that occasionally gets mentioned and affects his motives, but he literally took the chains that imprisoned him, upgraded them, and then slaughtered his captors with them. And he still wears them to this day and uses them to kill and control people!

Also his entire interaction Lorna and pulling the move with her tea kettle, right in front of her, while his husband tries to charisma check his way out of the situation, dude. (Kept vague on purpose, but if you know you know)

Also Taishen, he baby, but he also looked at an eldritch being that is far older and far more powerful than him and any of his friends, that has done absolute unspeakable things, with most of his friends on the verge of death, and tried to defeat it with a 4th level spell he had never used before and w o n.

Dudes, this man rolls absolutely terribly, and still manages to pull of these power moves and I love him for it.

So, from a certain point of view, the Good Baron is a patron of (presumably) con men, sinners, and those who like go stick to the shadows. And Graveyard Jack is also (presumably) a patron of con men, sinners, and those who stick to the shadows because that's how the coin gets tossed from person to person. So hypothetically speaking, from a certain point of view, what if I just.... headcanons that Graveyard Jack is the Good Baron's dog and runs away

Hear me out, hear me out, Jornir has gotten at least one small tattoo from every single tribe/village he has visited and helped out, and at this point his entire left shoulder, bicep, and pec is covered in small tattoos he has collected over the years

Barnabos: *holding Skrimm in a chokehold while at the ticket stand to a movie theater*

Barnabos: 5 tickets to the Barbie movie!

Daisy: *standing next to Barnabos* And 1 ticket to Oppenheimer!

Little late to the meme but I feel like it still fits

Okay, idk how y'all imagine him, but Taishen will always be tiny in my eyes. Like he's taller than Queenie and Skrimm, of course he is, and he is a medium sized creature, I can see that too. But I also imagine him on like the brink of being a size small. Like man's is 4 ft 5 in my mind.

I also imagine he likes hugging his close friends so when originally started hugging Jornir, his face was right above Jornir's bellybutton, no further. Nowadays whenever Taishen wants a hug he gets uppies from Jornir

Statistically speaking, at least one member of the Icebound crew has had a birthday since the start of the campaign, and now I'm wondering if they tried to celebrate it as best they can with the little resources they have? Was there a surprise party? What if said member tried to avoid talking about their birthday so the crew wouldn't make a fuss only for everyone to find out at almost midnight? There's many ideas here people!

¡¡Minor Spoilers for Episode 9 of Icebound!!

So we all saw that One Scene™ the same way right( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)? I just know I CAN'T be the only one

Icy blue comic panels lay against a dark blue background. Taishen(Chinese wish dragon-inspired dragonborn) and Jornir(a shaman firbolg) are the characters featured.

Top Left: Jornir and Taishen are in a panel, struggling in an icy river. Jornir's face is buried against the back of Taishen's head, his eyes squeezed shut. Taishen is bracing against the cold, his face twisted in pain and fear as the word "Ack!" hovers above his head

Mid Right: A close up of their eyes in varying degrees of panic

Bottom: An icy blue waterfall expands across the entire bottom of the canvas, with ice chunks floating across it and falling over its edge. Stretching into the distance is the river below, the stream getting thinner with small trees dotting along the banks
Top Center: Primary focus on Taishen as he stares ahead at the waterfall in terror, the water rushing around his shoulders. Jornir is beside him, his face partially cut off by the panel and only showing the lower half in a nervous grimace. His arms remain wrapped around Taishen

Bottom Left: Taishen looks up at Jornir, tears welling up in his eyes as if silently pleading and/or asking if there's anything that can be done

Bottom Right: Jornir looks down at Taishen, with an honest look of shadowed dread and horror. He is speechless
Top Center: Over the shoulder shot, focused on Taishen, shows him burying his face into Jornir's chest, his eyes squeezed shut as he begins to cry. His hand can be seen clutching onto the fur of Jornir's cape, as golden magic emits from his hand and forms shimmering protective scales

Mid Left: Jornir leans back, a mixture of stunned and nervous as the golden magic continues to flow around him. His hand rests firmly on Taishen's back, as the dragonborn continues to stay nestled against his chest

Bottom Right: Jornir bends down to fully embrace Taishen, his eyes squeezed shut and his hands emitting their own teal magic as he tries to protect Taishen in return. Taishen has lifted his face up slightly as they huddle close together, tears still in his shut eyes. The magic they used flows around the canvas, with Taishen's golden scales floating in the top left, while Jornir's teal leaves flutter along the mid/top right
Full shot of Taishen and Jornir in a free fall against the same dark blue background, but now with hints of inky blackness. Only their lineart is in color, with Taishen in the same hues of gold and Jornir in teal just like their respective magic. They still hold onto each other, as luminescent icy tears fall upward from their obscured faces
