Animated by ‪@toad1414‬, thank you again for this wonderful commission!

Sir Bearington is amazing and deserves respect and recognition (also give him more fish, he hungry)

[@specterknight0542]

This is why the guest was able to beat Bearington's disguise, he refused to put any points into Charisma to make room for Perception, so he failed a speech check.
