#tavqotd #nsfwtavqotd #bg3nsfw For most of his life, wanting things openly was dangerous. So while Ryld can initiate, he isn’t naturally the first one to do so most of the time. Even though he looks at Zyn absolutely starved, wanting to touch, kiss, hold, and praise him for hours on end, 1/2
#tavqotd voice claim It took me a while to settle on one (thanks to @scarletpath.bsky.social for absolutely nailing it!) I’d say Jensen Ackles. Deep and slightly raspy. I love how when he’s relaxed, it’s almost soothing, but when he gets serious, it’s firm and decisive. Very Ryld!
#tavqotd #augrescue Ryld opens by putting two Fey-Slaying arrows straight into Gullistan’s chest. Not before casting Hail of Thorns (Level 2) or Hunter’s Mark if Augustine is standing next to G. Both shots backed with Superiority Dice: Precision Attack— 1/2
Ryld’s weapon of choice is a composite longbow. He prefers to begin a fight at a distance, thinning the enemies numbers, and doing crowd control. He knows strength often relies on numbers, and that advantage has to break early. Then, he moves in without hesitation— 1/2
#tavqotd Ryld spent a month half-dead and feverish, clawing his way to the surface, only to be dragged straight into the BG3 adventure.Yes, he knows the terrain, and of course their odds are better with him. But going back after everything he went through? He’s not thrilled. He is, in fact, afraid.
#tavqotd For Ryld, it might have been Karlach. He had grown to care for her, and he had promised he would stay until the very last moment. I hc that around when Astarion lost his sun immunity, Ryld’s eyes began to shift too, back into underdark-born eyes, untrained for the surface light. 1/2
This looks like fun! Is there something I haven’t talked about, and that you or your character had wanted to know about Ryld? #ocquestions #ryldoc
Jumping on this as well—I’ll do it for Ryld 🏹 Thank you @shandoraexplorer.bsky.social for putting this together! #ocquestions #ryldoc #tavqotd
#tavqotd song I have a short playlist Ryld-themed. The ones that used to remind me about him the most were: Bling (confessions of a King) & The Archer But lately it’s The Old Religion by Florence and the Machine. Here’s his playlist if you wanna check it out! open.spotify.com/playlist/3Gp...
#tavqotd I look at Travis’s Fimmel face, and he’s Ryld for me 🥰 Body claim though—that’s Alan Ritchson, no doubt 🔥
#tavqotd forehead touch @scarletpath.bsky.social wrote a beautiful short story back when the #ryldzyn era started. I had to draw it because I loved it so, so much 💕 You can read the story here: ellipsus.com/read/24KQGmW...
#tavqotd God My boy loathes gods, so if for reasons beyond his choosing Ryld were ever forced into divinity… He would be a minor god, some kind of Guardian of the Night Sky. He would favor caravan leaders, travelers, wanderers, exiles, scouts and pathfinders, who walk ahead of the rest. 1/3
#tavqotd swimming Ryld would never just shove her into the water like his patron did, but he would work around his teaching “Panic narrows your vision”. He’d start with all the basics in chest-deep water, then move on to testing her reactions: letting her drift a little farther, 1/3
#tavqotd character Ryld is not a “good drow”. He’s morally gray. He wouldn’t be cruel just for the sake of it, and perhaps because his word was all he had for a while, it holds more value than it does for others. But he is distrustful. Envious. Possessive to a fault. He assesses people before— 1/3
#tavqotd Ryld hadn’t had anyone he truly cared for before, so a trinket like that would have been useless to him. Now, he would sacrifice worlds to save that person—never the other way around. (Also, fuck that thing, fuck—fuck, fuuuuuck, NO) #ryldzyn #scarredforlifebytheeclipse
#tavqotd BBEG Talya will come for Ryld, eventually. To make sure he died after their first fight, she tried to scry him a couple of times, but the astral prism kept him shielded from her. Yet she knew something was off—he was alive, for she couldn’t feel Lolths favor granted by his death. +1/2
#tavqotd If Ryld could remember… The way his mother chased swordsmithing perfection, placing her sharpest blades in her husband’s hands. The relentless and unyielding way his father fought—up until his last breath. And how they stood tall and proud, regardless of their commoner’s rank.
#tavqotd Ryld would drop the following loot: ✧ Darkwood Master Composite Longbow +2 ✧ An old, worn Menzoberranyr Copper Coin ✧ A freshly baked loaf of bread ✧ A random surface-dweller novel ✧ Mattis’s Ring of Infinite Wishes (Add cheese, and remove ring, if downed after committing himself to Zyn)
#tavqotd Back then, I never expected go down a videogame oc rabbit hole. I’m a simple girl—wanted to play a giant beefy drow 🥵 Going through the hair styles, only liked how the short ones looked w/his face. Sprinkled freckles and added scars, because why not. They all have meaning and story now 🥹🤍
