4. what is their comfort food?

bread! i think back when she was still living in rue's road, she was making bread all the time, constantly kneading dough under clean paws and finding comfort in the action. not to turn her into me for a moment, but banana bread is what she bakes the most, for sure. i mentioned once on twitter that i see all my characters as asian, so i also think she would like pandesal, which is this delicious roll in filipino cuisine! really sweet and really light! when i visited the philippines with my family a couple of years ago, a man would be going through the neighborhood every morning with bags of them freshly baked, and we would have it for breakfast. i like to think the same thing happened in dawn's town!

6. what quality do they like the most about themselves?

her loyalty to the people that she loves! whether they are family or they are friends, the bonds she has created with them are the things she grasps hardest, in spite of but also maybe in part because of those from before that turned her away when she needed them and their support the most.

20. describe one of your favorite rp moments with this character

dawn returning tanya's shoe to her! she managed to salvage it from the fucking shark that took it from her by slicing it in half, but she held on to it until they were far from monachus and those memories, she was able to restore it to the best condition that it could be, and tanya was able to get a prosthetic leg to wear it on! it was a real prince charming moment. dawn was on bended knee when she was slipping it on and everything. (also, of course, using a wish to bring tanya back to life.)

33. when creating your character, did you take inspiration from characters in other media? or just other media in general? name them, if any!

addie is a bitch and i love her SO MUCH,

5. what is a specific, defining physical feature that they have?

i've been picturing her as having like. absolutely so light blue eyes that, per the players handbook, are calculating but in such a way where she can absolutely switch from that dumb doe eyed "you're gonna have to explain that to me again simpler" look to just an narrow-eyed going to eat you alive and let you watch expression in an instant.

11. what does a usual outfit of theirs look like?

slutty <3 but fucntional! her party clothes are very different from her like. going to class clothes but she's very preppy and extremely put together and matches her shoes to her top to her handbag. i don't know clothes <3

20. describe one of your favourite rp moments with this character

um. all of them. mostly the ones where she is absolutely so mean and nicki goes WHY ARE PEOPLE FRIENDS WITH HER and everyone else goes YEAH ADDISON. specifically i REALLY liked when ted was like. we have to save margot! and addie just went. who? it really made me laugh also whenever she just. fully lies to people for no reason

37. what is their zodiac sign?

YEAH SOMEONE SENT IT IN THE DISCORD AND I BURST INTO TEARS I CAN’T HANDLE IT

disclaimer i initially tried to think very hard and give nicer more in-depth answers but somehow my head was EMPTY sorry in advance 

4. if they could learn one spell that isn’t available to them at present, which spell would it be?

sully: off of gut instinct i’m gonna say i think it’d be funny if sully knew speak with animals. like the prophet suleiman dhdbcjncldkj

zereshk: zereshk isn’t a magic user but oh fuckin BOY they would cast calm emotions all the time if they could (mostly for themselves)

38. what do they smell like?

sully: somehow i feel like sully would smell a little like rose and honeysuckle! i tried to think of a longer answer, but that felt right for some reason. maybe he’s picked up some perfume.

zereshk: i think that with their trunk, they’d be very hyper-aware of how they smell, and would try to minimize it as much as possible so it wouldn’t be distracting to themselves and others. but while probably only abstinence (and zilla, briefly) could smell it, i do think they smell very very faintly of sandalwood.

38. how would they describe their party members?

sully: i think i would probably just end up rephrasing what i wrote here gfldkjkg but the short version is that, if asked about any party member, sully would probably go, “oh [x]? they’re great. very capable in battle. i don’t know them that well but they seem nice. also unfortunately we both know the answer but are they ok”

zereshk: hmmm......i zereshk would describe zilla as someone who can be very caring, but doesn’t like to think of herself as caring; maggy as someone who is bubbly and energetic but by no means naive or shallow; and shep as someone they can relate to in a way they can’t describe, but simultaneously the party member they feel the most distant with. 

i’m making a playlist for them as we speak!!! but we can have a little sneak peek, as a treat!!!

· sleepover by hayley kiyoko

· late nights by mxmtoon

· softly by clairo

· waiting for you by the aces

· and then she kissed me by st. vincent

4. would your character sing along to a vaguely familiar song, even if they messed up the lyrics as they went?

dawn does! i like to think that she hums along softly whenever tanya sings, whether she knows the song or not. (luce also does, but they are a lot louder about it and absolutely do not care if they get the lyrics wrong. if someone tries to correct them, they either beat them up for trying or simply do not hear it.)

8. are their hands steady?

callisto has the steadiest hands in all of ancient greece, actually.

37. how would they pass the time on a train?

39. are their hands calloused, soft, or something else entirely?

soft! she is a privileged little almost-princess but she does spend her Life in the sea so they are sometimes like. dry with saltwater but she doesn’t mind that. she does a lot of little hand motions to cast spells so they’re agile and floaty. sometimes if you look hard enough you can see little crescent scars where she’s pressed her nails into her palm so hard they bled to keep from crying. one of them has a big silver ring on them that belongs to amias’ family and she twists it sometimes if she’s thinking, especially abt amias himself bc it reminds her of him (and they’re best friends!)

50. can they sing? can they dance?

ohhh... she can definitely dance especially like. ballroom and jigs bc again. little almost-princess has been to SO many balls. she sings because siren imagery and also it was something for her family to show off at dinners with one of her brothers playing piano (which i think she’s Okay at but not Great). she mostly knows like, Old Old classical elvish arias etc but she’s picking up sea shanties. she and amias sing together :]

63. what fight has scared them the most?

4. If they could learn one spell that isn’t available to them at present, which spell would it be?

This is SUCH a funny question to answer for Dari. Dari would not a learn a spell that isn’t available to her at present and in fact would take any opportunity to unlearn the spells she currently knows. If I have to choose, Nondetection or Mind Blank

15. Do they trust their party? why or why not?
