Tah is forthright and stubborn, though it doesn't take long to see she's kind and giving with those who deserve it. As for nature, part of her oath is to protect it and she loves it, given she grew up in the poor part of Baldur's Gate.
#TAVEMBER Day#17: Nature

What is your Tav/Durge’s nature?
[Think human nature]

Are they naturally envious, optimistic, pessimistic, cruel, melancholic, etc?

🍄‍🟫: Are they a friend of nature/the wild world itself?

Tah doesn't shy away from PDA. She's proud to be with Halsin. Once she would have said there was a limit but not anymore. She initiates as much as he does now. Tah is also a hugger and is good at holding people as much as they need. She gives good hugs, with her height, strong arms and solid frame.
#TAVEMBER Day#16: PDA

How does your Tav/Durge feel about PDA? How do they react to it from their LI? Do they prefer to initiate or for it to be spontaneous?

How about from friends/family?

🍄‍🟫: What is their limit for PDA?

Tah doesn't participate in politics really. If there is something important to vote on, then she will but coming from a poor childhood, all she saw of politics was the scraps. She knows she's too honest, and forthright to make a good politician, so she works on making lives better one on one.
#TAVEMBER Day#15: Politics

Does your Tav/Durge participate in politics? What politics do they stay up to date on?

What was the political climate in their upbringing?

🍄‍🟫: Does their LI/Friend engage in political conversations with them?

Tah picks up a few skills growing up, helping anyone who would pay her, but she was best at leatherwork. This means she can repair and clean and damaged armour or fastenings for anyone in camp. She never traded but she was good enough to be a Guild Member.
#TAVEMBER Day#14: Trade

What is a trade your Tav/Durge practices?

Brewing, bladesmithing, pottery/art, farming, bowyer/fletcher, etc. think like a trade job type of service.

🍄‍🟫: Do these skills help them on their journey or are they beneficial to someone in the camp?

Tah doesn't have any major vices but once she gets together with Halsin, she would say her vice was sex (with him) because she loses her inhibitions and her morality once would have been dead set against public sex.
#TAVEMBER Day#13: Vice

What is your Tav/Durge’s vice?
Alcoholic, sex, drugs, etc.

What is their minor vice [like cigarettes] and their major [compulsive gambling]?

🍄‍🟫: Do their LI or friends participate in, ignore, or try to break them of their vice?

Tah's longest held dream is buying her mam a better home. A house with more than one room, somewhere she can entertain guests. She's quite happy telling others of her dream but when she moves to Reithwin with Halsin, she doesn't know how to persuade her mam to move out of Baldur's Gate.
#TAVEMBER Day#11: Dream

What is your Tav/Durge’s dream?
This can be a goal or a literal dream.
Do they dream when they sleep? Relive their memories in reverie? Daydreams?

🍄‍🟫: Has their tadpole ever shared their dream with anyone in the camp?

#BG3 #TavQOTD

Tah is a frontline fighter, with a weapon in one hand, shield in the other. Her weapon tends to be something that hits hard, given she has the strength to wield it. She and Lae'zel bond over sparring, improving each other's skill. Karlach will but Tah is besties with Lae'zel.
#TAVEMBER Day#10: Fighting Style

What is your Tav/Durge’s fighting style?

In a fight, how do they handle themselves? Sneak attack, ambush, direct, hand-to-hand, dipped, poison tipped, explosive, etc.

🍄‍🟫: Do they spar with their friends/LI?

#BG3 #TavQOTD
November 10, 2025 at 8:41 AM
A free day, with no responsibilities, just for Tah to do what she likes, it doesn't matter. She has always been busy, never stopping, going from one task to the next. She's not good at stopping. When she was a child, it was to go down to the beach with her mam and find the prettiest stone/shell.
#TAVEMBER Day#9: Treat

What is a treat to your Tav/Durge?

A special food, a date night, a new outfit, some kind of experience/item that brings them joy/comfort.

🍄‍🟫: What was their childhood treat?

#BG3 #TavQOTD
November 9, 2025 at 9:20 AM
Tah is 24 so the youngest & she feels everyone else's experience means she shouldn't be leading them. Jaheria tells her age doesn't grant wisdom and that none of them would be there if she wasn't doing something right. Halsin is obviously a lot older & will outlive her, which worries her, for him.
#TAVEMBER Day#8: Age

What is your Tav/Durge’s age?

This is two fold: what is their biological age vs their psychological age? Does their age, or the age of others, impact their opinions or decisions?

🍄‍🟫: Does this age contrast with their LI’s?

#BG3 #TavQOTD
November 8, 2025 at 9:46 AM
A lot of people would think Tah doesn't have one. Astarion calls her a goodie-two-shoes but she can do a lot when it comes to protecting others and teaching lessons. She wouldn't draw out pain but she knows how to make others fear her and she will kill without hesitation if it's needed.
#TAVEMBER Day#7: Dark Side

What is your Tav/Durge’s dark side? What makes it come out?

The hidden, objectionable parts of them. How do they control it? Does it control them?

🍄‍🟫: How does the camp find out about this dark side? Does their LI?

#BG3 #TavQOTD
November 7, 2025 at 9:49 AM
Tah is pretty confident, open & honest, that's how she wants to be. Halsin has the biggest effect on her. Tah has been told being a half-orc, tall, muscular & a burn across her face means she isn't beautiful. Halsin proves to her that's false. She doesn't need to be pretty but he makes her feel it.
#TAVEMBER Day #6: Self-Image

What is your Tav/Durge’s self image?

What is their ideal, their social, their ideal social, and their actual self-image?

🍄‍🟫: Does their journey change these images they have or does their LI change anything for them?

#BG3 #TavQOTD
November 6, 2025 at 3:36 PM
Tah and her mam are close, even though she was strict. It was probably that discipline that helped Tah become a paladin and follow her oath. They are the only family each have. (Tah's father is not a father, just a donor...)
#TAVEMBER Day#5: Mother

What is your Tav/Durge’s relationship with their mother figure?

This can be adopted, foster, bio mom, etc - basically the main feminine role in their formative years.

🍄‍🟫: Is your Tav/Durge’s filling this file for anyone?

#BG3 #TavQOTD
November 5, 2025 at 11:51 AM
Tah stays clean but she doesn't wash with scents and doesn't bat an eye at being dirty and sweaty. She and Halsin will often bathe together and share much the same views.
#TAVEMBER Day#4: Hygiene

What is your Tav/Durge’s personal hygiene level? How serious do they take their body care? Why is it important to them?

Is this a private ritual or will they share?

🍄‍🟫: Do they pay attention to their friend/LI’s hygiene too?

#BG3 #TavQOTD
November 5, 2025 at 10:51 AM
Tah grew up poor. They always had a home, food but it was a single room, Tah slept on the floor when she no longer fit alongside her mother. She doesn't care if she was poor or that anyone knows it. She has more now, with Halsin in Reithwin but neither of them seeks luxury.
#TAVEMBER Day#3: Social Class

What social class did your Tav/Durge grow up in and what class do they fall into now?

Do they use their class? Is it something they ignore?

🍄‍🟫: Are there any aspects of their social class that they hate and actively avoid?

#BG3 #TavQOTD
November 5, 2025 at 10:16 AM
Tah's mam didn't earn enough to pay for any education but taught her to read and write. Tah then was so busy helping anyone she could, she learnt as she did so. She's definitely a hands on learner and is good enough to be a Guild member, though she never settled on a trade.
#TAVEMBER Day #2: Education

How was your Tav/Durge educated? Did they attend an academy? Were they privately mentored, self-educated, temple taught? Are they still learning?

🍄‍🟫: What kind of student are they? Visual, hands-on, teacher’s pet, overachiever, etc

#BG3 #TavQOTD
November 5, 2025 at 10:14 AM
Tah's mam was alone, new to the city and wasn't sure how she'd feel about the baby, given Tah's father murdered her whole village. Tah though was a good baby. She ate well, slept well and hit her milestones easily. Her mam loved her but she was a strict mother, given Tah was her world now.
#Tavember Day 1: BIRTH

We start 11/1!

What happened the day your Tav/Durge was born?

Was it difficult for mom, how did their parents receive them? for Durge - how did their parents find them?

🍄‍🟫: What kind of baby were they? Fussy, happy, sickly, etc.

#BG3 #TavQOTD
November 5, 2025 at 10:13 AM
Tah et al pretty much just ran the gauntlet at speed as she was super focused on killing the brain. The others, dragon included, were a distraction and would drain them of energy and spells if they fought them too long.
#tavqotd Did your tav/durge defeat the dragon before confronting the brain?
November 5, 2025 at 10:07 AM
Given that nothing had happened between Tah & Halsin at that point, her feelings would have been a shock to her as well. She has a vague notion she likes him, but she hasn't grasped how much yet. The others have noticed however so don't bat an eye. Halsin has a quiet smile on his face.
#tavqotd Z’rell just looked into your Tav/Durge’s mind and shared with everyone in the room how strong they feel for their love interest(s). How do they feel or respond?

#baldursgate3 #bg3 #tav #durge
October 19, 2025 at 8:05 AM
Tah would whole heartedly embrace him back and hold him for as long as he held her.
#tavqotd

"But this...this is nice."

In a bout of madness (he alleges) Mal has given your tav/durge a hug!

What is their reaction?
October 18, 2025 at 8:50 AM
Given she slit Kadeth's throat and that boy can hold a grudge, that'd be a no.

For Tah, it is Halsin but Lae'zel is Tah's bestie and a solid rock for her. She doesn't do nonsense but can be incredibly supportive if you understand her.
#tavqotd

Sometimes the journey is harder than it should be. But there's always someone to help us through.

Who is your tav/durge's someone?
October 9, 2025 at 8:40 AM
Tah would accept but Jaheria knows she wouldn't leave Halsin in Reithwin and would already tell her anything of note so she doesn't need to be an official member. (Tah looks up to Jaheria like a big sister)
#TavQOTD

Jaheira has invited your Tav/Durge to join the harpers!
Do they accept? Is Jaheira even alive in their universe?

#RolimOC just wants to lead a quiet life after all the chaos; he gives her a "not right now" answer.

#VincentOC is inclined to join; he loves being an adventurer.
October 9, 2025 at 8:37 AM
Tah's was a joke too! I wasn't sure how much Tav was lore (I knew nothing) so I basically just changed a letter for the lols!
