Yeah... this is group starts as more Monty Python than Lord of the Rings. I stayed up way too late talking with the DM about game mechanics and how we were likely to incorporate my character into the world. Apparently I went on walkabout looking for The Cat Lord, the deity of the Tabaxi. Somehow I stumbled into the Astral Sea, and that's how I spent 83 ageless years and met the god of wisdom, who apparently gave me clues to find my warlock pact weapon.
