my d&d character – Salwa (aka: “Sally” if you’re friends, or if she likes you then you can call her “Auntie”).
Neutral Good. An old half-elf bard of the College of Whispers, she’s long estranged from her elven heritage and prefers to dabble in human politics. She’s a diplomat with charisma off the charts who knows literally everyone. (”What’s that statue over there?” / “Oh, that’s Empress Zibala. I served as her advisor maybe 200 years ago, give or take a century.”)
Back in 2013 I had the wild idea of developing 12 characters based on classic archetypes but didn’t know shit about actual character design (you can spot the point where I was out of ideas and just doodled over previous characters), so I decided to spend some of my evenings thinking about a new set while trying to stay into the original sketches idea. They definitely look like actual characters now :’) I’ve also thought of some backstories for all of them and boy do I want to develop all of them and tell their stories.
