Tav Character Worksheet

thank you @elven-e-girl for the tag! always feel free to tag me in things like this because I love talking about my little guys!

no pressure tags: @my-favourite-zhent @fistfuloftarenths @leopardmuffinxo

Name: Fiadh O’Keefei

Age: 54 years old

Gender: cis female

Sexuality: fairly fluid, but no solid label

Pronouns: she/her

Tav Voice: voice 2

Family: Fiadh is an only child, with her mother dying during childbirth. She was raised by her father, Keefei, who is the leader of their druid circle. There were many other members of the circle who took care of her when his Archdruid duties took him away from their home. Though Keefei did not have any more children, she treated the other kids in the circle like her own siblings.

Birthplace: She was born in Moonshae Islands, where her parents were originally from. She and her father relocated to Ardeep Forest not long after she was born.

Jobs: Because she lived in her circle for so long, Fiadh didn’t have a “traditional job.” Sometimes she would keep watch of the circle at night, other times she would be sent out to hunt for food or to protect their land. She made sure to help out the circle as much as she could, so she could one day take her father’s place as Archdruid.

Phobias: Not really a phobia, but she does have a fear of failure. She wants to prove to the world that she is a strong, independent woman who is highly successful. She is also afraid of becoming corrupt when she becomes Archdruid, like the stories that her father has told her about.

Guilty Pleasures: She’ll indulge in too much Plum Fizz when the time calls for it. She also enjoys sun bathing in the nude, which she tries to do away from the prying eyes of the circle.

Hobbies: Sparring with her ‘siblings,” practicing lute (rather badly), basket weaving, and occasionally tailoring clothes of various members of the circle. She is also known to cook up a good meal, when the time calls for it.

Alignment: Neutral Good - calling for nature to take its course, no matter the outcome.

Sins: Fiadh tries to be without sin to become a good Archdruid, but she can have a nasty temper. It usually rises when people are making false accusations about her or other people in the circle. She nearly killed an outsider for speaking poorly of her father.

Virtues: Nature shall always have its balance, whether it is helpful or harmful. Respect your elders. Look after the small, for they are the future. Stay humble and be kind.

This or That?

Introverted/Extroverted - after spending so many years in her circle, she has found that she thrives well with others and prefers to be in a large pack-like group

Organized/Disorganized - she helps the others organize their packs and each companion is responsible for various different items

Closed Minded/Open Minded

Calm/Anxious/Restless - she doesn’t feel it necessary to spend her time worrying about the future (spoiler alert: she is worried)

Disagreeable/Agreeable - rather easy to get along with

Cautious/Reckless

Patient/Impatient

Outspoken/Reserved

Leader/Follower - natural leader, helps others try to think rationally before acting

Empathetic/Apathetic - almost to a fault

Optimist/Pessimist/Realist - tries to stay positive, despite the world falling around them

Traditional/Modern - to be fair, it’s all Fiadh’s ever really known

Hardworking/Lazy - she has worked hard over the years to one day take over her father’s place

OTP: The details of her in-game story is still in development, but I believe she and Wyll end up together. She thinks he’s handsome and witty, and has good characteristics of a potential husband. He thinks she’s elegant and handles her leadership with grace, which was refreshing after spending so many years in the wilderness of Faerûn. Eventually, they become Duke and Duchess of Baldur’s Gate and bring peace to the city! It’s an adjustment for Fiadh for sure, but she grows to love Wyll’s home, just as she loves him 🤠

BroTP: Gets along well with Gale, she likes to have scholarly discussions with him, even though she doesn’t have the same education as he does. She and Karlach have similar backgrounds, so they bonded over their untraditional childhoods. They often go on walks through the woods together. She and Shadowheart also become close, they both have respect for each other due to their devotion to their deities. She is also very close to Halsin, considering he and her father became friends when they fought Ketheric Thorm. He shares a lot of stories about his younger days with her, and she tells him of his years leading the circle.

NoTP: Fiadh is friendly with Astarion (and may have hooked up with him once), but she would not see him as anything more than a good friend. Same with Lae’zel. Both of their personalities don’t mesh with hers very well.

what my tav looks like in my head

[f-faerun]

"You believed in me - believed I was enough just the way I am. When I look at my future, anything and everything feels possible now. And I get to share with you as a partner. An equal. You saved me from myself and let me walk a new path where I can be free. Truly, honestly free."

Is there anything you have changed about your Tav since you first made them?

So much, tbh?

Defunct lore:

- The reason why I still use "Faolan" for the face of her Archfey patron at this point is because it's been a workshop name for him for a long time and initially I'd considered doing something with fey werewolf vibes for Fe. Shapeshiftng is still an aspect of the whole archfey seat/demiplane lore but not as nature-embedded or bestial. Fe is not a werewolf potentially anymore. That was a fun 2 months in discord tho lol. Now it's like, fey necromancy/technically almost the concept of a lich? Technically it's a magical construct that allows the Demiplane to exist and provides the archfey seat. Rn I'm not 100% but I'm using Fiarlan as a name for the "two-faced" entity that is technically the presentation of the Archfey.

- kind of written out Duke Dessarin my fey lord of the Dessarin River. I'm not sure he has a role in the background lore anymore ever since I did more research on events in the feywilds and realized some things shifted. Unfortunate I was attached to them for like. A year.

- Fe was originally raised by a canonical sun elven house in Evermeet bc I was still learning the lore. While the foundation of that is still present, once I learned about Evermeet slipping into the feywilds etc during the Spellplague that altered a lot and eventually it proved OOC for her patron to wait for an introduction. I might make my own House for her now even though I was attached to certain concepts. Or I'll stick with an official Evermeet house still. Idk.

- She still loses her "birth name" in a fey deal quite willingly to remove any attachment to the identity of her birth family' house, but the transition of the names have shifted. When I first made Feana she was Feanora. Now that's the name she's abandoned and she took on a name from her patron-- Fiadh. Feana is technically just a pseud she comes up with when she goes to the prime material plane (and is working on something without involving Fao) but it's more interesting tbh because leaving her patrons Demiplane is providing her with a chance to learn more about individual identity and she gets really attached.

A couple of Tav's I made because I may or may not be addicted to the character creator (and yes each has a backstory in my head) Davina Fiadh Virias

Fiadh O’Keefei

[FEE-ah] (she/her)

Class: Circle of the Land Druid

Race: Wood Elf

Age: 54 years

Background: Outlander

Game Progression: Beginning of Act One

Originally born in the Moonshae Islands, Fiadh was next in line to become Archdruid of a circle residing in the Ardeep Forest near Waterdeep. Her father, the current Archdruid, sent his only daughter to find the Emerald Grove and meet Halsin, a friend to the family, to judge her and see if she was fit to lead their circle. Her father, Keefei, and Halsin fought Ketheric Thorm when he was a Harper, and eventually left the group to lead his own druid circle.

Unfortunately (and fortunately), the Nautiloud picked her up just south of the city and made a crash landing close to the grove. With a tadpole in her head and a missing Archdruid, Fiadh was in over her head…

One negative effect of the tadpole was that she could no longer wildshape into her chosen animal, the stag. This leads to an identity crisis because she is constantly worried that she is not doing good enough, and that this was Silvanus punishing her.

Click here to read about her background a bit more :3

Though on her journey, she was able to defeat the Shadow Druids that had lead Kagha astray. To thank Fiadh for her guidance, she was gifted with the “Pale Oak,” a staff that can prevent her from being entangled in druidic vines and gained the Faithwarden’s Vines.

She’ll be romancing Wyll… I think

who should my new girlfailure romance

technically Halsin is part of her storyline (her father and him fought Ketheric back in the day and became friends) but they have not met yet. Fiadh is only 54 years old, after all.
