Kypriotha Mossheart (Kap) | she/they | AD&D | half-elf ranger

Kap is the very first D&D character I ever made. I was about 10 when I created her, so she was originally not a very fleshed out self-insert, but she's developed more of a personality since then. Kind of feral and anti-social forest guardian. They're happy to let her sister handle the politics of running their small settlement. If you're not talking about bows or forestry, don't bother talking to them.

Aphrodōros child of Acis (Aph) | they/he | Pathfinder 1e | bard who's totally human don't worry about it :)

Aph is my character from a long-running fantasy Ancient Greece pathfinder game with my parents' household. They're supernaturally charming, with manipulative tendencies barely held in check by the desperate need to be seen as a hero. Secretly a changeling, which in Pathfinder means the child of a hag - Aph was adopted through the classic fairytale method of "naked weeping lady in the middle of the ocean hands her infant to an old fisherman and the storm miraculously clears up". Gaslight gatekeep girlboss.

Sritthi Swims-In-Shadows | he/they | Skyrim | Argonian assassin

Every time I start a new skyrim load order I'm like surely I can make a different character and every time I'm like "orrr I could play Sritthi again!" I came up with him originally bc I wanted to play the Dark Brotherhood plotline without making a straight-up evil character, and then he stuck. Grew up on the docks of Windhelm, slit his abusive father's throat in the dead of night and hitched a ride with the Khajiit to warmer waters, went feral and lived like an alligator for several years in the Lake Geir to Lake Honrich watershed, got mauled by a bear and taken in by a hunter and her alchemist wife who slowly brought him back into society. Lives by hunter ethics: kill quickly and cleanly, minimize pain. Eventually took over the Dark Brotherhood to ensure that the best killers for hire would play by those rules.

Aster Mayfield | she/they | D&D 5e | minotaur paladin

Another long-running household game, this one set on an isolated space station that has been cut off from Earth for so long it has developed its own machine gods. Aster became a Weaver (magically-gifted station staff that solve Problems but also have the equivalent of magic radiation poisoning) after an accident that killed her sister when she was about 14. (This is also what turned her into a minotaur - you think normal puberty is hard? try going through the wrong puberty and growing way more facial hair than any 14 year old should have.) Big buff transbian butch, massive survivor's guilt and martyr complex, will protect you or die trying. Paladin of Magi, the eldritch station god of the warp engines.

Fen | it/its | Fate homebrew | deep-sea android salvager
