Ruse's main motivation from the start of BG3 is to get back to the city and find the last 5 surviving soldiers from her last campaign. She'd been in the middle of a week long binge drinking session with them when she got abducted because none of them were doing well.

While sex and booze might be her biggest vices (very big vices), Ruse will melt in your hand if you just tell her she did well. It's not a sex thing; she finds a lot of happiness in doing a good thing and being blatantly told "Good job! Thank you! No complaints!"

Ruse tries to anticipate what her partner wants and adjust accordingly to make them happy. She tends to let Astarion be the one to initiate (sometimes he can't stand to be touch and sometimes he's over the top, can't keep his hands off her) and she initiates a lot with Halsin.

Having grown up in the very "dog eats dog but with money" city of Baldur's Gate, Ruse is whatever Faerun's equivalent of a socialist is.

Ruse's #1 special interest is people. Growing up, she didn't know how to interact with people but after her order trained her, oh she's some god's most sociable autistic soldier! She is going to get a good grade in being social, which is normal & possible to achieve. :)

Ruse is unsure of a dream she strives toward, so let's go with actual dreams.
Ruse dreams of all her adventurers. Lovers, her soldiers, every beautiful scenery she's seen. Her mother in her happier moment. Her late husband, back when things were good.

Ruse is proficient in the standard paladin fare; swords, shields, polearms, warhammers, plus Divine Smite. If she can pick it up, she can hit someone to death with it. If someone is within 30 feet, she can throw it at them. At 60 feet... that's a bit more difficult.

Besides alcohol, Ruse's treat is any kind of apple pastry. She's especially fond of apple hand pies sold off a cart in Baldur's Gate. Her mother used to buy her one for her birthday every year and now Ruse makes sure to get one any time she's back in the city.

Ruse is chronologically 82 years old. As far as she can tell, she is basically stuck somewhere around her mid-40s for reasons she doesn't know. (I know because I'm the author.)
