Fall-from-Grace!

Fall-from-Grace from Planescape Torment

"Fall-from-Grace is a creature of contradictions. She is a cleric but worships no god. She is formed from pure chaos and evil, but is lawful neutral with a good bent. She runs a Brothel for Slaking Intellectual Lusts. Perhaps the oddest of all, she is a beautiful succubus, but is by all appearances chaste. While many in-game characters are quick to indicate her heritage and proclaim that she must have some sort of demonic and evil scheme, no such plot on her part is ever indicated. She is a member of the Society of Sensation, who believe that truth and understanding can only come from personal experience and seeking out the unknown and unusual."

My mom, who watched me play, now has the headcanon that Fall-From-Grace is an incarnation of Deionarra. This would lead to a happy ending.

Rather than Deionarra forever clinging to life, pining for a man who never loved her, now it's closer to being a woman who suffered so much in life getting a second chance. Both end up traveling with and falling (no pun intended) for The Nameless One, but where Deionarra falls in love with a cold, calculating man who only pretended to love her, Grace falls for a man who is genuinely trying to do good and may love her back (and either way won't lie about it).

Sometimes a family can be:

An immortal amnesiac trying to find out who he is and how to die;

A wise-cracking floating skull that collects insults;

A githzerai warrior-mage that survived a genocide and who’s trying to figure if he wants to help or kill the amnesiac immortal;

A Scots tiefling thief with a thing for older men and flash burns;

An asexual succubus whose entire existence is one extended existential crisis;

A fire mage who thinks that being permanently set on fire was the greatest thing that ever happened to him;

A sentient cube that is learning about this thing called Individuality;

A set of animated armour kept alive through uncompromising zealotry;
