When you True Polymorph a creature, it gains the mental statistics (intelligence, wisdom, charisma) of the new form it takes, so is it technically OK for Nanny Muk to hit on Charlie? Or does it matter since she’s a green hag and has probably done a lot worse?

I am aware that this episode will do nothing to quiet the people who think that Granny Dismal and Nanny Muk are alternate-universe Discworld witches. But when you’ve got powerful witches, a fancy event, and a feral monstrous pet, what other option do you have but to bring him into play?

What’s going on here?

• Kayra lives with her “husband”, Singing Cricket, a retired adventurer named Singing Cricket, and her coven, who are her mothers and teachers.
• They were invited to the wedding of the strange creature that replaced Kayra as a baby.
• They don’t normally look like this – Kayra and the rest of the coven are in disguise as a human family. Hags are not usually welcome in society, but these ones are special to the changeling.
• Charlie is an owlbear that Singing Cricket adopted by accident while trying to protect a baby house. Now they’re all one big family.

Love and Hex started out as a joke about my D&D campaign and turned into an ongoing rom-com/horror story. It’s on Webtoon and other platforms. Also r/LoveAndHex. ^(And Patreon if you like early releases and extra stuff.)

There’s also a book! You’ll find it on Amazon (just use your country’s site), or you can get it and T-shirts on Comcraft.
