Toby

Stub-class article

Toby is the player whose character is Caelumn, the draconic-sorcerer with a fire-only spell list and a complicated relationship with the Platinum Order. He has been at the table the full recorded run (s2-current). The character’s canonical spelling — Caelumn rather than the more common transcription manglings (Callum, Calum, Calem, Calon, Caleum, Calam) — was confirmed against D&D Beyond.

Characters played

  • Caelumn (s2-current) - Draconic Sorcerer, fire-themed on the player’s side (“I think he just wants to be a fire dragon.”), origin within Vhal’Zarim’s Platinum Order. Carries a draconic bloodline tied to Bahamut’s flame; exact dragon type unresolved (per DM ruling, post-s17 - do not confirm red). The fire spell list sits awkwardly with a Bahamut-aligned organisation; Caelumn’s status with the Order is left unstated by the player in transcript and treated by the wiki as effectively a former or rejected initiate. Holds the Soulbinder’s Packed Ring (Maelis Dirn’s soul + 1 owlbear soul as of s11).

At the table

Toby’s Caelumn voice is pompous, devout, draconic-sorcerer cadence, with persistent self-deprecation about his own bad rolls and the fire-only build’s narrowness. Recurring tells: “I shall fire a firebolt.” / “I cast Mage Armor.” as opening combat moves, “Defiler!” as a combat exclamation, “I have utmost faith.” [1], and the recurring “Nick’s a dick” jab when the dice or the encounter design go against him (“I want to have a look around the room, but it’s fucking pointless because I’m exhausted because Nick’s a dick.”, [2]. The “Show me on the doll where he touched you.” dark-joke runs as a recurring bit.

His self-introduction at the start of s2 — “I am Calem, it’s a pleasure to meet you.” [3] — is the prototype for every transcription-mangled spelling of the character’s name in the corpus. Notable real-world tell: “Hello, sorry I was muted, um, so I’m eating a burger.” [4].
