#51: Dex'Starr

He's finally here! Look at this good kitty!

We very recently met up with the Red Lanterns and got to hear all about them, and that included our good boi Dex'Starr.

I'm not familiar with much any of DC, so a ton of the stuff that Scar presents to us is brand new to me.

Dex'Starr though I AM a little familiar with, so even though he told his story in kitty speak, I knew exactly what had happened and how things went down for the little guy.

We actually had a brief encounter with Dex'Starr going back into the first campaign when we were in the Patchwork Territory. We got to experience a LITTLE bit of the Blackest Night and lemme tell you, it wasn't pretty.

I had my Crown though and I forget exactly how I learned OF Dex'Starr, but I knew I wanted to summon him to help us, as a Red Lantern would be very useful against these Black Lanterns that were surrounding us.

Another thing to note is that we had an item called a DIAL H, which allows you to change into a superhero of sorts (I forget if it was limited to heros?), anyways, the catch with the item was that you had to dial in a 5 letter word into it and it would transform you into that character for a few minutes.

So what was probably one of our most scariest combats, also turned into one of the most fun! At least for me.

I summoned Dex'Starr with my Crown... and then also turned into him with the word "Kitty".

So there was two Dex'Starrs on the map at one point and we were KICKING ASS! Being able to use the energy projections as well as BLOOD VOMIT was incredibly fun and I doubt we'd have made it out in one piece if we didn't have all the Dex'Starr action.

I tried to charm the Dex'Starr AS Dex'Starr... but uh... it didn't go over so well and he ended up running off before we could chat... not that we had the time to sit around and talk though.

Once we had dealt with the Black Lanterns, we zoomed our way out of the area and Artemis no longer existed as Dex'Starr... though he would always remember the memories of being him.

This actually spurred a neat little character arc for Artemis and put him down the route of being obsessed with Lanterns and... the rings in general. He remembered the rage, and anger that Dex'Starr harbored, even though he was only him for a limited time. And he remembered the powerful ring that was looped around his tail.

He'd have talks later with PCs about Dex'Starr, about that rage... but most characters would dismiss him, especially those who weren't in the Patchwork. Because... Red Lanterns didn't exist yet in our current time. It's hard to believe a young excitable dog spewing nonsense about zombie lanterns and a red cat lantern that could vomit blood over its enemies.

And so that's how it was left... for the most part. Artemis would bring up Dex'Starr occasionally but most wouldn't believe him. He wouldn't forget what it was like though.

And then...

We get to just a couple weeks ago when we finally get to meet the kitty in REAL TIME! He's even got a mission where he wants to take down the grid and get revenge on those terrible terrible humans that made him so angry.

And I'll do everything I can to help him with that, because he's a good kitty! I can see Dex'Starr going higher and higher on my list, but as we've just met him for realizes and haven't had too much content with him yet, he just sneaks onto the list!
