I don't get Wyll. Joined: Aug I've never gotten a grasp of Wyll as a character. Now I tried to force myself to give him another chance. Ok so He was apparently a bit of a failure at everything, and then entered a deal with Mizora to become powerful. Already, not a very likable foundation for a character. If he entered a pact with a devil to save his family or a similar force majeure, it would have been a sacrifice that would have instantly made him more tragic and likable as a character.
Now it's just "ok you sucked, and then gave your soul to a devil suck a little bit less", which kind of just makes him suck. Am I missing something here? His motives are weak. When we first meet him at the battle at the gate, he is casting Arms of Hadar and Eldritch Blasts at goblins. Dark necrotic forces blasting away, withering goblins.
Then we enter the Tiefling camp, and he's now a master fencer, The Blade of Frontiers, teaching swordplay to children.
Which is it? Dark spellcaster or sword swinging hero? No one seems to care about that particularly blatant mismatch and you can't ask him about the magic. You can ask him about "The Blade of Frontiers" part and he claims to be a hero and a living legend.
Are they intentionally trying to make him as unlikable as possible? Actual heroes or living legends don't go around announcing themselves. If this is intentional - why? Why would I take someone unlikable as a companion? My Tav, who is an actual honest level 1 aspiring adventurer trying to make their way in the Forgotten Realms, doesn't really care to hear such empty self-proclamations or baseless claims of worth.
