BG3 Moodboards: Zafraia Zital

The nemesis of my favorite bard is this amoral, free-spirited, swashbuckling Banished Bandit.

I love Zaf almost as much as I love Cannor, but they definitely don't like each other; they were both exiled from the city after dueling in public over the affections of a patriar's daughter.

Zaf has definitely made the most of her banishment.

Pronouns: she/her Tav/Durge: Tav Race: human Class: rogue (thief/BG3, swashbuckler/5e) Background: urchin Romance: no commitments, no squids. But the drow twins? Mizora? Sure, why not.

Thanks again to @bladesandbhaalspawn for the inspiration.

BG3 Moodboards: Cannor Coth

Inspired by the glorious work of @bladesandbhaalspawn, I've made a mood board for my whip-wielding, rhyme-slinging Lost Singer:

Cannor is, in his own words, "a magpie in leather/a copycat in chains/a champion of my own defeat."

My mutuals probably know his details, but I'm gonna stick to the format (sort of) because I want to do more of these for all my characters.

Pronouns: he/him Tav/Durge: Tav Race: human Class: bard (swords) Background: artisan (BG3), spy (5e) Romance: Minthara

BG3 Moodboards: Drem Sion

On a roll with these things. A new mood board today for my third Tav, a stoic, metal-staff-wielding relentless defender who happens to be the first character I ever made for TTRPGs, circa 1991 for AD&D 2e:

Modeled on the FF1 black belt, named for a children's-book Celt, and symbolically killed off in his only 5e appearance (as an ice-cold undead folk hero) during my homebrew game.

Even now, Drem is still more of a cipher than a developed character, but he's still my OG of OGs.

Pronouns: he/him Tav/Durge: Tav Race: human Class: monk (way of shadow in BG3/5e) Background: folk hero Romance: Karlach

BG3 Moodboards: Qiranna Jasti

Moodboard number six is for my willful warlock and Raven's Right Hand:

Qiranna is kind of a cipher, created as a cleric NPC in my homebrew 5e campaign, then as a warlock backup in my brother's campaign in case Olini died (but she didn't), and whose patron is a totally different third character whom I've never posted about who lived 10,000 years prior to that setting.

So I'm not sure Qiranna's received her due in 5e, or even in BG3 (now that I've created another, perhaps less-clichéd drow), but she absolutely (pun intended) deserves a replay/restart at some point.

Pronouns: she/her Tav/Durge: Tav Race: drow (Seldarine) Class: warlock (archfey/BG3, hexblade/5e) Background: archaeologist Romance: Minthara

BG3 Moodboards: Farago Heli

As always, the cure for "needlessly griping about what I can't control or what someone else doesn't like" has proven to be "make something of my own that's cool and fun to do."

So I did: a fifth moodboard, for my surly, stoic Elven Exile. Farago is a bit mopey and a bit tropey, but when my swords bard needs some strong and dependable backup, this hunter-ranger is always there.

Pronouns: he/him Tav/Durge: Tav Race: elf (wood) Class: hunter-ranger/BG3, rogue-scout/5e Background: soldier Romance: Shadowheart

BG3 Moodboards: Olinitza Cuel

At the risk of overexposure, a fourth mood board—this time for my righteous ranger and not-so-Silent Sentinel:

I've spent more time with Olini (in both 5e and BG3) than any of my other characters (except of course for Cannor the bard). Her deeper backstory remains a bit hazy, but her immediate past, motivations, and in-game development might be the fullest of all my Tavs.

She definitely made the jump well from paper to pixel; the subclass switch made her damn near unstoppable in BG3.

Pronouns: she/her Tav/Durge: Tav Race: half-elf (drow) Class: ranger (gloom stalker/BG3, horizon walker/5e) Background: soldier Romance: Shadowheart
