So you know how OCs are often like... Please personify an aspect of myself, except with enough of your own personality and backstory that you are also your own person?

I’ve got a dwarven bard I’m gonna get to play whenever my Monday night D&D party finally finishes the mini campaign I had to drop out of because of seasonal retail hell (it got away from them in the best way, apparently). I don’t have a LOT for her, but she’s named Hlifrun Silvertongs, she’s the sister of my ranger from Neverwinter Online, and she’s got at least one battleaxe hidden in her petticoats

So like

Just realized she’s got my desire to emanate “Cute AF, but will destroy you if you view me even slightly sexually” energy at all times

✗  Lying: Ok I am obligated to say Kash is the best, because of That One Time in MotB where she successfully lied to a mind flayer. Also because she just has no shame. Rook also has no shame and actively practices lying. 

But they’re also both sketchy af, so in terms of Best At Lying To Normal People: Zoe. Who goes and lives a normal life after adventuring by pretending to be completely mundane, and gets away with it (until either Adventuring Friends show up and recognize her, or some sufficient threat comes to town and she just calmly whips out her hellmurder crossbow to take it out)

(Nara probably does something similar tbh.)

(also good at lying but sketchy af: Arizan’s mom the Leira-worshipping illusionist, who is lying at least half the time she speaks. And sorcerer!AU Arizan deserves a mention, because he’s not as much a Leiran as she was, but still definitely has bluff maxed out and Uses It)

◌ Cleaning Up: UMMM Let’s say Maina. Cause she had to keep a tiny room in Candlekeep well managed, and actually cared enough and liked order enough to DO that.

…clearly I don’t have enough domestic headcanons if this is all I came up with but w/e

❃ Dancing with a partner: William’s parents were nobles and decided that just because their city was a volcanic wasteland, that didn’t mean their son shouldn’t at least be Respectable at nobility things. So he’s had dancing lessons. Which puts him at a MASSIVE ADVANTAGE compared to most of my characters. He’s probably the best in a “You are at a ball and are expected to dance with lots of strangers” kind of sense.

Actually Hlifrun has also had dancing lessons, and is honestly probably better at it than William is, but it’s less surprising from her. Also, she’s usually the one playing the music.

Ela also knows how to dance, but probably thinks it’s funny to switch the lead with her partner in the middle of a song. Without warning them ahead of time. So she’s probably got like 1-3 people who know how to manage this and she’s INCREDIBLE at dancing with them, but otherwise she’s just going to troll the other person until they trip over her. And then she will laugh at them. William refuses to dance with her.
