So long story short, my DM is rather not allowing Bladesinger to attack while dualwielding without breaking Bladesong in the process. Dont really mind that since I can see her reasoning behind it, after all dual wielding is also using both hands similar to how a twohanded weapon would - Which RAW breaks Bladesong anyways. Not planning to contest her on that, since I can still wield a staff in my offhand simply without using it to attack. Sure, no bonus action attack/ third attack with Nick, eh so be it.

Now tho Im a bit stuck on which onehanded weapon to pick up going forward. 2024 Bladesinger can attack with Int instead of Str or Dex so being locked into 'Finesse' weapons is no longer a hinderance unlike in 2014, so I pretty much got access to everything thats not Heavy or Twohanded. Multiclassed into Paladin (Wizard 10, Paladin 3 - we dont use stat requirements for multiclassing), so also got weapon mastery access.

Rest of the party - Shadow Sorcerer Fairy, Reborn Spore Druid & Tiefling Trickery Cleric, with the Spore Druid being the tank-ish role of the party due to temp HP, while Im more a striker role.

Any recommendations or such would be appreciated^^

So, gonna be start playing a tiefling titan druid starting this week... and I could really use some input on what to do with a few of the different forms in terms of flavor.

One of her core themes is due to her upbringing to view love and attachment not as something soft, but as being brutally honest even to a fault - To see something as what it is, accept it as such and embrace it that way; even if it would only end in bloodshed. "To love each other to pieces", so to speak.

Now, I've brainstormed for a bit already and came to the conclusion that Id like her forms to kinda follow a theme based on that core: Her tiefling blood basically amplifying her emotions, resulting in those three distinct forms. Which is where Id like some outside perspective on since I cant really talk with the tableplayer about flavor without giving away a lot about her already...

Behemoth - "Chasing", a demonic feline form, maybe lion-esque
Leviathan - "Binding", a sea serpent or monsterous naga
Insectiod - "?" (unsure as of right now)

Those three were what came to mind as a baseline idea, but my DM is more then fine with reflavoring those forms as it fits: the insectoid could be more avian in theme etc.

Just kinda looking for some feedback or ideas, really^^'
