Thank you Nancy!! 💖 // Send me a “🖊+an OC“ and I'll write 3-4 random headcanons about that OC! 

MANON:

Her favorite dish is waffles, with chocolate and strawberries on the side! She has a massive sweet tooth and always gravitates towards the most sugar-filled treat within sight, even if she's warned off of it by family members who think she should lay off. 

Manon is a,, terrible flirt. She is utterly incorrigible and has pulled countless schemes to seduce or just gets someone to blush. Her favorite was when her friend Garrett had stopped by the estate and was calling for her through the halls and she called out to let him know where she was. Unbeknownst to Garrett, she had been partway through a bath and he walked straight into her relaxing in the water. The memory of him freezing in places for a solid 5 seconds before panicking and covering his eyes while shouting her name will forever provide Manon with amusement. He's too cute when he blushes, she can't help but chase any opportunity she gets to pull it from him. 

The one universal for the Weaver aesthetic is the color red, as it represents the color dragon that Manon's grandfather, Chaol, slayed decades ago that propelled the family into nobility. Some of the more dramatic family members add scales or other draconic themes to their looks, but there is always the constant of the color itself. 

Manon was the outcast among her siblings, the first Weaver child who didn't want to become an adventurer. She loved the socialite life and was, to be perfectly frank, terrified of the stories her father, aunt and grandfather would tell of their adventures. Others saw heroics and bravery, all she could hear was the facing of death each day and standing face-to-face with creatures that could tear her to ribbons. Suffice to say that when Manon was pulled into the adventuring life by being attacked and forcing her to make her first kill, she was not a happy woman. (She rubbed her hands raw making certain every speck of blood was gone while shedding quiet tears, and then cried again when she glanced down and found her dress stained with more of the stuff.)

BONNIE: I don't think I've posted much about Bonnie in terms of context, so I'll use this as a chance to toss out her backstory under the cut!

Bonnie Clark (né Emerson) is the only child of a wealthy, influential family in the city of San Sahanne. She's not a PC, but she is a character set in the Shady Grand campaign world setting that I created (at the DM's request) to smooch one of the main NPCs of the game. She was raised in a pampered lifestyle, adored and spoiled by her parents in every way. She adored them in turn… for the most part. They could be very judgmental and cruel to others if they did not meet their standards (in terms of status, religion, morals, etc) and this would always rub Bonnie the wrong way, she would often apologize to folk they had offended when they'd left or offer them empathetic smiles. (Though she never truly stood up to them, afraid to hurt their feelings or earn herself a "right talking to". 

Bonnie has been a painter for as far back as she can remember, and over years of putting brush to canvas has become an incredibly talented artist. Because of this skill, her parents took to entering her work into an art gallery within the city. It didn't take much convincing, but she was still nervous about sharing her work with people outside of her home. Her mother wanted to show off her daughter's skill, and her father believed it could be a chance for her to make a living out of the "hobby". It was at this event that Bonnie met Morgan Clark, a rugged looking man who made quite the first impression when he commented that her painting was the only one in the place that he enjoyed. He wasn't aware it was her work at the time, but it did wonders to endear him to her and the pair of them were smitten at first sight. Morgan used buying the painting as a way to see her again the following day, and they continuously found excuses for seeing each other afterward. 

They fell hopelessly in love, even with the fact that Morgan was an outlaw. And not just any outlaw, right-hand of Holland van Daal, King of Outlaws. Though the idea of outlaw life and their dealings very much frightened her, Bonnie could look past it for Morgan. Unfortunately, her parents did not share those feelings. They repeatedly insulted and shunned Morgan, to the point where Bonnie snapped over dinner one evening and told her father she had had enough. Morgan helped her gather her belongings and leave that same evening, moving her to live with him in False Cross. (A lawless town run by Holland.) Bonnie was still scared of the outlaw life, especially now that she was walking almost directly into it, but it got better over the years! At the current point of the campaign, Bonnie and Morgan have a 2 year-old boy named Jasper and she has actually befriended Holland, along with his wife and other members of the van Daal gang. 

Bonnie is just a,,, gentle-hearted, sweet, caring and creative lady who is doing her best to adjust to the life of an outlaw's wife. Which is pretty hard considering she's Not A Fan of violence, but she's trying here.

Just a fun fact that the name Bonnie was chosen purely based off the fact that it sounded Wonderful with a southern accent.
