First of several- also for bottom right: he will adopt or be adopted, with him the papers go both ways XD

I thought I might ask, when can I be expecting to meet my grandbabies?

Shayla can't keep me from them

-Mary

Goodbye Mary, You can meet your grandbabies when I can trust you not to chuck them in mirrored hellscapes- in short, never.

omg omg omg yes please

Wasn't sure if plant was leaf, herb, or seedling, and I'm bored so I just did all 3.

🥛 Milk: What is a food you find comforting when you are sad?

Cerridwyn: Cinnamon. We don't get it very often in Iron City, despite being a trade town, so it's really special to me. A little bit of cinnamon in an otherwise normal cup of cocoa or folded into fresh-baked bread is an instant pick-me-up.

Rhys: Apples remind me of simpler times, and there's something satisfying about a nice, fresh green apple.

Mun note: If you ever want to cheer up both of them at once, an apple pie or crumble will do the trick.

🍃 Leaf: What is a plant you find beautiful?

Cerridwyn: I love red spider lilies. They've got such a unique shape, and the color is so vibrant.

Rhys: That's a difficult question. I work so closely with plants, it's hard to pick just one, but I suppose... magnolias are beautiful, and they have a lovely scent.

🌱 Seedling: What is something you want to begin learning?

Cerridwyn: I want to learn more about runic magic. I've never been particularly good at it, but skilled runesmiths can make some incredible things.

Rhys: I'd like to fill out my skills more as a smith. I'm fairly good at small, decorative pieces already, but I'd like to be able to make something truly useful.

🌿 Herb: What is a scent you find relaxing?

Cerridwyn: Cedar wood. Something about it is just... nice.

Rhys: I love the smell of an apothecary's shop. The mingling scents of myriad herbs and medicines feel like home to me.

🌲  Pine: Do you prefer the cold, or the heat?

Cerridwyn: Heat, definitely. Having fire at my core means I don't overheat easily, but if it's cold I definitely feel it.

Rhys: I prefer the heat for my work, but the cold for my comfort. More- and more exotic- plants can grow in warm or hot climates, but I don't particularly like to relax in it, whereas in the cold, there are fewer- but generally hardier- plants, and if it gets too cold, I can wear a sweater.

🐑 Sheep: What is a comfort item you own?

Cerridwyn: Rhys gave me a pendant, inlaid with shed scales from himself, me, and our mother. I never take it off.

Rhys: I have a scarf that used to belong to our father. It's old, but warm and comforting.

⛰️ Mountains: Would you rather live in the mountains, city, beach, or the forest?

Cerridwyn: The forest. Well, depending on the forest, at least. We grew up in Silverwood, and I know those trails like the back of my hand.

Nicknames: Green, Lifeshaper 

Age: Old. Not ancient, but close. Acts/looks mid-late 20s 

Birthday/Zodiac: May 20, Taurus

Pronouns: He/Him 

Sexuality: Biromantic/Grey-Bisexual 

Species: Dragon/Fae/Earthfire Elf depending on verse 

Physical Description (anything not covered by the picrew): With his soft green eyes, wavy curls, and calloused-but-gentle hands, Rhys has an overall softer and gentler appearance than his sister, though he still has the size (he's 6'6", soft, and beefy) and sharp features to be intimidating when he wants to be. He has freckles everywhere and no scars due to his healing (though when he heals others, it does scar) He always wears a red scarf (that's never available in picrews for some reason), given to him by their mother before he and Cerridwyn left home, and a set of cuffs similar to Cerridwyn’s that can become a bow or warhammer at a command. 

Personality: Rhys is more peaceful and grounded than his temperamental sister. He’s quite a bit of a romantic and enjoys quiet moments, wherever and whenever he can get them. He’s very much the voice of reason in most groups, but especially when paired with Cerridwyn or Taliesin. He has little patience for those who continue to harm themselves even after being talked down or healed, and while he will not resort to violence, he will use cheap tricks, up to and including guilt, to get them to listen. He loves to work with his hands, often carving small trinkets for those he cares for. As a fae being, he cannot outright lie, though he can still partially obscure or twist the truth.

Background: Like his sister, Rhys has a long, wild background, but the most important parts have to do with joining a small, ragtag team of soldiers against the fae courts in a war, searching for, and then rescuing, his sister from the Sun Court, and now running a small clinic and living in a small shop/house combo with his sister and best friend/SO (and possibly others). 

Abilities and Proficiencies: Rhys is an accomplished strategist, craftsman, and healer, as well as a skilled warrior with a variety of weapons, though he is best with archery and warhammers. As a class of fae, Rhys is able to perform minor shapeshifting feats, such as manifesting wings or fangs or changing the color of his hair, as well as feats of elemental manipulation, specifically healing and manipulating plant life. Cerridwyn Maddox is his twin sister, and, due to a shared soul, they are able to telepathically communicate with each other, and, in certain circumstances, see through each other’s eyes. Either one of them can add people to this connection, but it is permanent, so they only do it in very specific circumstances.

Affiliations: Cerridwyn Maddox (Twin sister), Taliesin Swiftblade (Good friend and usually roommate. Occasional brother-in-law.), Lin Earthshaker, Emlyn Shadewalker, Damon Lakedancer, Cenric Icecaster (enemy)

Verses: Rhys has fewer verses than Wyn, because he doesn't change much.

Healer. Any version of Rhys post-dragon ceremony.

Smol. Rhys is a fae child, pre-choosing. I haven't explored this incarnation much yet, but he's gentle, friendly, and quiet.

Fallen Necromancer. If Wyn dies, he loses it and becomes a necromancer trying to bring her back. This is that verse.
