Chapter 5 felt incredibly short to me

Hi, to be clear this is not a complaint, I made the choices I made.

Chapter 5 Spoilers

>!Chapter 5 seemed really short from my perspective, and I'm sure this is down to a number of factors because I know how big it is. !<

>!I'm Mystical, Keen Eye and I got aged by Charlie. Went to see my Romance Oscar at the library and tried to convince him to stop after briefly exploring the Hidden Wing and telling Wayne I trust him, tried to go meet with the Witch, got arrested, went to the farm, saw Reese murder a cop, convinced Julius to take the baby, had the Witch vision and cut the thread to give Kaneeka the power after feeling quite agonised by the choice, and woke up by the church?!<

I really get the sense that I missed A LOT. I don't know if that's true from a time perspective or a different paths one, but I just had this feeling of a huge world moving behind that I wasn't seeing. I didn't see Tabitha even once, which I assume you probably can be with her like in previous chapters. It's an interesting feeling. I'm doing a very specific run with a friend where we make pretty consistent choices to protect the vulnerable and following something of a code of agency and accountability, and I feel like when the game finishes I'll probably do a very different playthrough. I guess I'm just gassing up the writers XD

Heya, looking for answers in both 5e and 5.5 because I'm curious.

For a oneshot I built an Astral Elf Beast Barbarian. I originally imagined them as a Zealot Barbarian as their backstory involves eating a god. When I was leaning into the eternal hunger and body horror elements I realised Beast made more sense, and would be more fun to me. Beast Barbarian is also really great for the Spelljammer setting because of the mobility you unlock at 6.

Here was the Level 5, 5e build.

Stats (I mostly do point buy, but we rolled for this) 18 14 16 10 12 12

Wildspacer background (Tough Feat)

Skill Proficiencies: Animal Handling (PK), Athletics (Ws), Intimidation, Nature, Perception (AE), Survival (Ws)

Level 5: Sentinel Feat

I'm thinking about rebuilding her for when I get to play Spelljammer long term. What are the fun ways I can unlock radiant or maybe psychic damage, or generally give more of an abberant/celestial vibe in either 5e or 5.5? Doesn't need to be the most optimised option, this is for flavor.
