This is Ettie. I thought it would be fun to make a character based on the idea of having a BBEG as your parent. Other inspiration includes Anne of Green Gables and Gudrun Sjödén designs. She plays the kalimba and yes her familiar is the flower hat duck. Backstory and personality after the break~Ettie Cetera | Tiefling | 14 years old | 5’ 1’’ | Inheritor | College of Creation Bard | Chaotic Good~Personality~Wildly imaginative. Often lost in daydreams. Loves making friends, but often too shy to speak. She loves to talk about her creations once she feels comfortable. ~Ideals~Wishes to do what her father would expect of her - even if she doesn’t understand what that is.~Bonds~Due to her isolated upbringing, her imaginary friends have been her closest bond for years.~Flaws~Prone to acting cruel, selfish, or insensitive because she does not have any real world nor social experience. ~Backstory~Ettie’s father, Occidere, was a cruel wizard who kept her locked away in his manse. He provided her with the best education, but little love. Amidst the cold academic lessons, a glimmer of light shone out to provide her some distraction: she adored her music and literature lessons.Although she was a well-behaved girl who tried to do everything exactly as her father wanted, she was desperate for some kind of escape from her empty world. As such, she began pouring her copious spare time into daydreaming. Her isolated tower became her own private kingdom. The inanimate objects were her loving subjects, her songs recorded the history of her realm, and her tatty clothing was the raiment of a queen. In time, her magic developed to a point where she could even bring her dreams to reality.One day, while playing in the lonely gardens of the manse with her imaginary friends, she heard a commotion unlike anything she’d experienced before. Something was coming for her father. Was it an angry mob of villagers? A royal army? An enraged rival wizard with hordes of undead? If you ask Ettie, she will tell you something different every time. In truth, she can no longer remember. All she recalls is her desperate escape, fleeing from the only world she’d ever known. Her father passed his grimoire into her hands and told her to run; she ran.Lost and alone, she realised daydreams were no longer enough. Now, she attempts to find purpose in the pages of the grimoire, and perhaps learn more about what her father was really planning. -- source link
