No one asked, but I've improved the design of my air genasi bard Calypso so so much through Hero Forge. The Face Customizer is a godsend. I've gotten (I think!) really good at posing too. I also made Quintus' face and them as kids too. I'm goin crazy on Hero Forge.
Also made all the NPCs and family in her backstory.
Her parents: Cassandra, the best mom ever, and Zephyr, a fun-loving djinn that Cassandra released from the bottle he was imprisoned in. They were only together for a few years, and he left after Quintus was born to track down the wizard that trapped him.
Calypso and Quintus consider The Muses of Brightmarket, the bard troupe that Cassandra founded, to be their aunts and uncles, but aren't genetically related to any of them.
Aunt Safiya and Aunt Akila are the dancers in the troupe, and are the ones mostly responsible for encouraging Calypso and Quintus'.... not-so-legal skills. Calypso thinks Safiya has the best fashion sense. Quintus loves to have backflip competitions with Akila.
Uncle Aaron is the other lead performer of the troupe, and the youngest by probably hundreds of years. Deep voice, extremely straight faced and tells lots of stories that are questionably true. Uncle Orsuk is the visual effects guy (*cough* illusion wizard *cough*) and the classic wacky distractable wizard.
Cassandra hired an old friend of hers to teach Calypso bard magic, and their name is Rhaza and they're the classic "gruff mentor" type.
Delta is the owner of the inn that Cassandra, Calypso and Quintus live in. She's grumpy and not very personable, but likes the money that Cassandra's performances bring in.
And finally...
Calypso's ex-girlfriend and armorer. Naomi broke up with Calypso because she thought that Calypso was using their relationship as an excuse to never leave town and adventure. They're still on good terms, which is good, because Naomi makes Calypso's armor, and both think they'll end up back together.

I made my two currently active dnd characters in hero forge because almost all of our group is ready to get real minis of our characters
also, completely unintentional for my characters namesakes to be related in Greek myths, but still a fun fact
Calypso is my "proficient in everything, but especially in being better than you" Air Genasi Bard who I've been playing for a year and a half now
Atlas is my "oof ouch my bones I'm an old man, except I'm actually a young whippersnapper" Mountain Dwarf Druid who I've been playing for a couple months

i’m a fool
of COURSE jameela jamil would be cast as calypso kel’doraan
the right height, the right body type, similar heritage (i mean calypso is half sun elf half djinn so obviously not actually), the right passion
she could pull off calypso so well
