#tavqotd What place in Act 2 does your tav/durge steal from the most?

Wouldn't you know it— Roah's at Moonrise, too :)
Araj is isolated, also, and very easy to rob repeatedly. So, all told, Moonrise. Ria vented some frustration via coordinated pickpocketing.

#Tavqotd If your Tav/Durge was an origin character and had a dialogue/action that was specific to them, what would it be?

Playing as Ria would grand advantage on certain persuasion/deception checks because of the dual expertise and her habit of bending and omitting information vs outright lies
#Tavqotd

Similar to how you have dialogue specific to [CLASS] or [RACE], if your Tav/Durge was an origin character and had a dialogue/action that was specific to them, what would it be?

#tavqotd How does your tav/durge's love interest(s) touch them sensually?

Ria will let him play with, although not pull, her hair or kiss her hands. She goes wobbly at the knees if he kisses the nape of her neck. They share baths often.

#TAVEMBER What is your Tav/Durge’s scar story? #TavQOTD

Ria only has one. As a healer, she's put work into making her skin flawless, but no healing erases a resurrection scar. A justiciar cut her from ribs to sternum in the House of Grief. Shadowheart couldn't get her back up for two rounds.
#TAVEMBER Day#28: Scar

What is your Tav/Durge’s scar story?

This can be a physical scar on their body or a scar on their heart/soul or both. What is the impact of that scar?

🍄‍🟫: Do they share the scar and its story with their friends/LI?

#TAVEMBER #TavQOTD What is your Tav/Durge’s iconic quote? 🍄‍🟫: What is their iconic catchphrase?
No real catchphrase, but I associate Ria strongly with the "should have worn better boots..." click response and fell in love with voice 4 over "Wast thy father a flounder?"
As for Ria personally?

#TavQOTD How important is hair to your Tav/Durge?

Ria's hair isn't religiously important to her, but she is vain about it— it's soft and honestly gorgeous and, furthermore, being a black-haired drow might get her two seconds of confusion to get a few words out and explain herself
November 27, 2025 at 6:51 PM
#TavQOTD It's your Tav's/Durge's anniversary with their LI.
I'm not sure Ria and Astarion kept track of the day they decided they wanted what they had to be real— Ria's journal was a bit more sporadic in the shadow-cursed lands— but they have the date they met. They go see a play or share dinner

#tavqotd What place in Act 1 does your tav/durge steal from the most?

As in actually outlined in red? Ria *delights* in setting up Astarion to steal from any Zhent they meet, so Roah gets her pockets picked *repeatedly*
November 27, 2025 at 6:42 PM
#tavqotd What or who is the "light at the end of the tunnel" when everything is going wrong?
Ria kept repeating that she only had to keep going until the brain fell, made it... ten more minutes? Then collapsed.

#TAVEMBER #TavQOTD What is your Tav/Durge’s style? 🍄‍🟫: What is their flirting style? Did it work on their partner?

In clothing and bearing, Ria prefers elegance and quality. This can give people the impression that she was born to some social standing (she wasn't). 🧵
November 27, 2025 at 6:37 PM
#TAVEMBER #TavQOTD What is your Tav/Durge’s favorite pastime? 🍄‍🟫: Do they share this pastime with their partner or do their partner/friends engage in it with them?
Unfortunately for Ria, she monetized her hobbies. She loves being a bard, making music, and telling stories (+)
#TAVEMBER Day#24: Pastime

What is your Tav/Durge’s favorite pastime? [hobby] What is one they had as a kid?

Maybe they like to spar, draw, fish, hunt, etc.

🍄‍🟫: Do they share this pastime with their partner or do their partner/friends engage in it with them?

#TAVEMBER #TavQOTD What is your Tav/Durge’s idea of beauty? What would they consider ugly? Can something become ugly to them that was beautiful?
On people, Ria treasures features that make her stop and keep looking— Astarion's eyes and graceful hands, Wyll's scars, the swish of Shadowheart's braid.
#TAVEMBER Day#23: Beauty

What is your Tav/Durge’s idea of beauty?

The sight of blood, flowers in the moonlight, scales on a dragon, gold and jewels, etc

🍄‍🟫: What would they consider ugly? Can something become ugly to them that was beautiful?

#Tavtember #TavQotD What is your Tav/Durge’s limit? 🍄‍🟫: Have any of the companions or NPCs pushed them to or beyond their limit?

Feeling of powerless tears at Ria's composure and sense of wellbeing. She hit her limit around when the Netherstones failed, pushed through, and collapsed
#TAVEMBER Day#21: Limit

What is your Tav/Durge’s limit?

This can be their emotional/mental or physical limit, hard boundaries, situational/social/etc.

What pushes them over?

🍄‍🟫: Have any of the companions or NPCs pushed them to or beyond their limit?

#TavQOTD How does your Tav/Durge feel about cold weather? ❄️

Ria prefers to experience cold weather from near a crackling fire with a cup of tea on hand. It's excellent storytelling weather and DOGSHIT for traveling. Horrid.

Ria wishes she could stab hard enough to stab as a warning

#TavQotD for Bards. What song, plays, or dance have they performed whose mere mention inflict psychic damage on them?

Ria never wants to hear Faerunian Pachelbel's Canon EVER again, and some songs about Drizzt make her apply the Asshole Charge to her invoice

I suspect the people encouraging commenters to Talk About Blorbos with them rather than treat them like content creators are probably already replying to comments (because they want to Talk About Blorbos), but it’s probably worth applying the “don’t be embarrassed to comment” vibe to writers too.

#TAVEMBER #TavQotD Tattoo

Ria's tattoo is a college-era whoopsie doodle involving too much wine and enthusiasm. Luckily for her, it looks good.
She just! likes! birds!
