(CUT)

i think in terms of love language, physical touch and gifts are high up there, though lately physical touch is likely winning due to the fact that barovia is a frickin desert

i think he's capable of fwb because of this (less canon but more likely in like, modern settings), but most of the time when i imagine it happening the benefits get dropped at some point and they usually just end up regular good friends haha

Do you have a beginners guide to ez's lore for the uninitiated (me) 🥺

YOU GOT IT I LOVE NOTHING MORE THAN TO TALK ABT HER

Note: This only applies to Ez in our campaign, other Ez’s will vary. 

BASIC INFO

Ez (goes by Ez)

She/Her 

Human 

5’0” (5'8") / 25-35 yrs (her canon is 5'8" and the height I draw her is noncanon LOL)

Romani (Vistani) descent 

Action Girl (like the TV Trope)

Primary weapons are magic handaxe, saber, and the ability to call lightning from her fingertips.

An elusive NPC that’s both a world of help and a storm of trouble at the same time, Ez is protege to one of the greatest monster hunters in existence, and her nearly bottomless talent and expertise are countered only by her reckless, impulsive disposition and swiftly changing whims. Casual, confident, and deeply capable, she’s happy to share her knowledge with the party when asked, but her cat-like independent streak means she never stays for long. 

When the party first met her, she had big ‘I’ll sell you for one corn chip’ energy, and while it doesn’t seem like she’ll betray them anymore, she still feels like a gremlin and is somewhat difficult to read. The party enjoys her because she’s easy to talk to and exchange theories with. Roma likes chatting with her when she’s around, and “likes” her, which at this moment involves giving her a lot of gifts and making fun of her when she loses things. 

OTHER FACTS: 

Has a below the knee prosthetic.

Says her parents were the worst.

Seems to have a complicated relationship with her heritage. 

Running gag that she keeps throwing her ax into the figurative (sometimes literal) abyss despite not needing to at all and the party has to fetch it 

Running gag that she just loses important things, like full horses, her magic cart, and her spell components

Can do triple the amount of damage of the party in a single turn 

Lost her shadow once, and had to go on a long and difficult venture with The Twins to retrieve it back 

Talks to Roma in Goblin, a language that only the two of them and none of the party know 

Was first mentioned in Roma’s tarot reading (players are given a tarot reading in the beginning of the campaign called Tarokka that tells them important NPCs or artifacts abt the world that’ll help them in the campaign/relate to completing objectives in backstory) 

The Tempter - speaks of one who will direct you to a mutual ally; to someone who knows something of your past and who will know something of your future. you must seek out the woman of recklessness who is missing one of her legs.

Can read tarokka, but claims to not be very fluent with it. 

Agreed to go on a date with Roma. 

Gifts Roma has given her: 

Endure Elements - a spell casted on her, after first meeting, upon her departure, that protects from cold and heat and keeps casted comfortable for 8 hrs in extreme weather conditions 

20 feet of chain - forged by local blacksmith, originally 30 feet. “It’s so you can attach it to your ax and not lose it anymore.” 

A gold bracelet worth 100 gold pieces taken from the party’s first vampire kill 

The ribs from a stag, hunted by Roma and Van Richten (Roma and Ez’s shared mentor) that morning 

Character Mannerisms

Here’s some considerations for the tiny little details that can add a lot to a character. Figuring out these mannerisms can do a lot for conveying character traits through their normal actions rather than just their thoughts, dialogue, etc.

How’s their posture? There are more options than just sitting up straight or slouching a lot. What’s their most comfortable sitting position? Do they have a consistent posture or does it change depending on situation / present company? 

How’s their etiquette? Do they hold the door for people behind them? How do they handle handshakes and other kinds of typical contact? Does their language change or become more formal when speaking to strangers? To their elders? To their superiors? 

In a crowded space, do they get out of people’s way, or do people get out of THEIR way? 

How do they point something out? Pointing their finger? Nodding their head? A flippant wave of the hand?

What are their comfort gestures or self-touch gestures? Common comfort gestures include rubbing the back of the neck or gripping their own arms. Can they suppress these gestures or do they do them often?

Also consider the character’s common reactions to common emotions. Do they whoop when they’re excited? Do they tremble when angry? 

What parts of the body are the most expressive? Do they shuffle and stomp their feet a lot when agitated or excited? Are they a hand talker? Do they have an impressive range of motion with their eyebrows?

How do they sound? Do their car keys jingle as they walk? Do they drag their feet? Do their heels clack resoundingly on hard floors? Do they breathe loudly? Do they fidget in ways that make a lot of noise?

How do they handle eye contact?

Any behaviors they reserve for moments when they’re alone? (Or possibly among family/friends that don’t care?) Do they pick their nose? Do they bite their toenails? Do they sniff their armpits? Or do they not care if people see behavior like this?

Apart from comfort gestures, what else do they do to comfort themselves in trying times? What’s their go-to self care? What’s their comfort food? Where’s their safe space?

What are they doing with themselves as they’re suppressing emotion? Lip biting, fist clenching, and avoiding eye contact are common methods of coping with strong emotions.

more ezreena thoughts

do you ever meet a woman whose expertise and existence may solve all of your problems, who is literally so strong she may be able to free you, perhaps even help you free yourself (utena music starts)

anyway. i only know as much about them as a person playing strahd for the first time could. but. They Could Be Very Good Together I Think

current campaign events making roma remember interactions with a party member no longer with them

or

conversations with a changeling formerly known as maraschino

I HEAR THUNDER IN THE DISTANCE

AND IT HITS ME IN AN INSTANT

CRASHING THROUGH MY HEART AND I'M BLOWN APART

YOU DON'T LOVE ME LIKE THAT

slowly reposting twitter backlog to tumblr... some arknights au designs for roma and ez!!

i mean this so seriously if you have any sort of creative project you can and should be a little obsessed with it. you should reread your own writing and look at your own art and brag about your ocs its literally good for your health
