Courage is sorta a self insert and sorta something else. She’s a lot of things I’m not. Brave being one of them. Healed, another.

Courage is my higher self.

I have another non bg3 OC called Tamsyn Baelfire. One day, she’ll be the main character of my novel.

Tamsyn is my shadow self.

Courage walks through the streets hand in hand with Astarion when some young girls stop them, begging for an autograph from Alfira. Courage smiles warmly and signs Alfira’s name.

She and Alfira have been confused for one another so often, they’ve both agreed to roll with it.

What, you thought I could answer this without a 🧵?

Courage likes PDA to a point. Handholding, a sweet kiss on the lips or forehead, an arm around the waist or shoulder, even a cheeky butt squeeze are good.

Courage grew up on the north side of the High Forest about a tenday’s Journey from Neverwinter, bordering the Evermoors. (Her village is as of yet unnamed, and not WotC canon).

The winters were frigid and harsh. Courage hates the snow, cause it reminded her of home.

This is the worse possible ending for Courage.

CW: mind control, loss of autonomy.

The cult Courage grew up in, the Charon, hunt undead. Astarion, of course, is undead.

If her Cult killed Astarion, she would snap. It wouldn’t be the grief that did it, but the guilt….

Pre-Astarion, she would burrow under the covers. If it was bad enough, she’d sprint to Syndra’s room & sleep there.

Post-Astarion, they just change positions. They go from her holding him to him holding her, shushing her gently as she whimpers, promising she’ll be ok and that he’s there

A queen, huh?

Well, Courage would suggest they take a cue from some of the old fairy tales where the monarch dresses like a commoner to experience a day without the pressure of power. She’s got a disguise kit ready, if her majesty permits.

Hadn’t thought about this before, but Courage accidentally getting booked to play a show at a sex party not knowing what it is until she shows up.

But you know what, she might be flustered, but a gig is a gig. She’ll get through the show and leave with a funny story to tell.

1/3
Courage is the Faerun equivalent of a socialist and very politically conscious. She is most concerned with the rights of the citizens in the Gate, and then the Underdark. She works as a diplomat for the vampire colony, so politics are really important.

I mean… bouba for sure, right? I mean, look at her.

She definitely fell for a Kiki, though.

1/2
Courage gave up a life of safety and peace for her adoptive mom. Syndra probably doesn’t even know the depth of it. Courage had her mom train her so she could feel stronger. She teased the idea of being an adventuring like her, but she didn’t mean it. Not really.

Day 2: first fight

CW: child abuse.

Courage is little here, and so referred to by her birth name Atropos.

Eventually, yes.

Courage is very brave and very kind, so eventually people respect that. However, her childish nature, whimsy, and anxiety make people underestimate her.

Over time, they see that she’s wise and tough in her own way.

A little moment of discussing grounding techniques for managing dizziness, between @couragebonnemort.bsky.social Courage and Augustine.

(Or as Dolly calls her, Miss Bravery. 🩷 Hope you don't mind me doodling your girl!) #augustinetet

If I were a DnD character/Tav, I’d be a goblin wizard, college of divination.

I’d have high wisdom and intelligence, and terrible strength and con. My dex and charisma would be mid.

I’m very witchy in real life and practice secular witchcraft.

Courage’s duality is two-fold.

1st: she’s scared, yet brave. She would argue you can’t truly be brave without being scared first.

2nd: this pink, Disney princess coded goober also cusses like a sailor and smokes weed, which shocks some people. She’d simply say that’s just who she is.

With a shrug and a vicious quip back. Courage likes herself. It’s enough.

She’ll only be hurt if it comes from someone who’s a good friend, but she’s been called all kinds of untrue things her whole life. They’ve got nothing on Hemera Bonnemort for mean comments. She’ll live. ✌️

Courage is a musician by trade. While her skills are varied, composing and singing are her specialties.

She helps the party with songs often. When Wyll’s new appearance makes him feel isolated. When Gale contemplates the worst. When Shadowheart feels that she’s lost who she is

Day One: Courage’s first time.

Just a little snippet, not edited. Not sure if I’ll post the full thing or not.

Setting: a small cabin on the Nocturne, her uncle’s ship.

Courage is about a month away from turning 21.

Oh, and Gal has an Irish accent. 🫦

Awesome! I’m getting started super late, but let’s give it a go. I’ve got some sonnets coming down the pipeline, too.
Introducing #BG3FirstsWeek, a writing focused prompt challenge! 📝

Are you scared of sharing your writing? Your favourite characters were scared once too.

Between November 10 - 16, I'm encouraging people to share a short piece of writing even if they've never shared before!

I answered this for a speaking voice once, but not for singing.

I don’t have a specific voice claim for when she sings in a pop or folk style, more a blend of several artists, but for her operatic/classical style, she’s heavily influence by Sierra Boggess.
