Ruyn's only scars are from Astarion's fangs. Even before they were sexually or romantically involved, she allowed Astarion to feed from her. In her mind, she wouldn’t deny any of the other companions food if they were hungry – to her it’s the same thing. 1/3
Close-up of Ruyn, she is at camp at night, looking at something out of sight.

#Tavember Backpack

One might call Ruyn a hoarder. And they would be right. Except it's not a compulsion but rather a could-this-be-useful-or-sold type of mentality. She prioritizes survival, and wants to be prepared for anything. She keeps it meticulously organized. 1/3

Thank you again!
Art of Ruyn by @insatiaghoul.bsky.social Ruyn is nude except for dark purple fishnet stockings and hat in a dark purple with white fur trim. She is kneeling with her legs spread, one hand is behind her back and the other is touching her mouth. The background is holiday themed, bordered by holiday garland and multicolored lights.

Don't tell Astarion I'm sharing the holiday gift Ruyn got for him with y'all. 😏

Received this stunning holiday YCH from @insatiaghoul.bsky.social of Ruyn and I am so in love with how she looks! Thank you Ms. Ghoul!! 💜

#Tavember Quote

Ruyn is not particularly talkative, she prefers to watch and learn. But when the time came to confront Gortash, she surprised everyone by saying, "Say hello to my father," before nodding to Karlach, who landed the final blow.

Close-up of Ruyn - she is looking down on something, a small smirk on her face.

Ruyn is no flirt but flirting fascinates her. When Astarion flirts she encourages him to see what he'll say next. And she's a quick study. Once their relationship is established, then she really flirts. And she is devious, saying supremely salacious things in the most inappropriate of locations. 3/3
Close-up of Astarion and Ruyn, they are in a nondescript building, it is implied they are in public. Ruyn is behind Astarion, whispering something into his ear. Astarion's eyes are closed, he is clearly aroused by whatever Ruyn is saying.

Ruyn is stoic and authoritative. This is a mostly a cover, as inside she's unsure of what she's doing, so she adopts a fake-it-til-you-make-it mentality. Slowly but surely it becomes real, as she gets more comfortable with herself and confident in her own abilities. 2/3
Ruyn stands in the Shattered Sanctum, with her hands on her hips and her dual staves on her back. She is facing away from the viewer, looking on the makeshift altar the goblins have made. A few goblins are standing around the room as well.

#Tavember Style

Ruyn's fashion style is a little goth - dark colors and metals. She normally reaches for leather and other durable fabrics in blacks, burgundy, or dark purples. Later, she happily wears whatever Astarion gets, or sometimes makes/alters, for her. 1/3

📸 by me
#TavQOTD #BG3 #Ruyn
Ruyn stands in the Astral Plane, wearing black leather pants and a midnight blue cutaway sleeveless shirt. Ruyn and Astarion stand on the cliff where they first met, close together but not touching, looking into each other's eyes. Astarion is wearing black trousers and a black shirt. Ruyn is wearing a dark red full-length sleeveless dress. It is daytime, the sun shining brightly. It is implied this is post-game events and they have found a way for Astarion to safely walk in the sun.

#Tavember Pastime

Ruyn has no hobbies (no memories will do that), so the companions teach her theirs to see what she likes. It's a fun distraction given everything going on. Her favorite is reading. Doesn't matter if it's a textbook or smut - she devours it all.

📸 by me
#TavQOTD #BG3 #Ruyn
Ruyn reads a book she found. She appears to be engrossed with whatever she is reading.

What Ruyn finds most beautiful is Astarion in the sunlight. While she could take or leave the sun herself, seeing him enjoy sunlight is the definition of beauty to her. It's why she quietly vows to find a way for him to walk in the sun again, a promise that takes a while, but she keeps. 2/2
Astarion stands with his back to the viewer, he is shirtless with his arms outstretched, enjoying the morning sunlight through a canopy of trees.

#Tavember Beauty

Because of her blank-slate state, Ruyn is experiencing everything for the first time. She has an almost childlike wonder for all the new things she sees. Ruyn is particularly drawn to the mystical beauty of the Underdark. 1/2

📸 by me
#TavQOTD #BG3 #Ruyn
Ruyn stands with her back to the viewer. She is in the Underdark for the first time, looking out at the landscape. There are rock formations, glowing mushrooms of various sizes and colors, clouds of spores hanging in the air, and a glowing blue of a sussur tree can be seen in the background.

🎄Happy Holidays from Ruyn, Astarion, Brân, Nimbus, and Shovel! 🎁

Just received my awesome holiday YCH from @redisbetterr.bsky.social and I am just beside myself! Thank you so much Red!!

#BG3 #BG3FanArt #BloodShadow #Ruyn #HappyHolidays
Holiday YCH by @redisbetterr.bsky.social Ruyn, Astarion, Brân (large raven), Nimbus (shadow hound), and Shovel (sassy quasit) are all around a decorated holiday tree. Astarion is wearing a Santa Suit, and Ruyn is wearing a dark red sweater dress and red scarf with white snowflakes. Ruyn has her arms outstretched, her eyes closed, and her mouth is open as if she’s excited. Astarion is looking on, a look of wonder in his face.

#Tavember POV

Ruyn was thrust into a take-things-as-they-come POV. She couldn't fully realize the extent of her own or her companions' personal problems because she had no baseline.

📸 by me
#TavQOTD #BG3 #Ruyn
For fun, below are first impressions of the companions, in order of when they met. 1/
Ruyn is at camp, at night, with her back to the viewer. She is sitting on the ground, cross-legged, with her hands on her knees, she is staring at the campfire.

#Tavember Limit
CW: Blood, violence

The only time Ruyn truly reached her limit and broke down was when she brutalized the bard. She came to, covered in blood, body at her feet, dagger still in her hand. With everything else going on, it was all too much. 1/2

📸 by me
#TavQOTD #BG3 #Ruyn
Nighttime at camp. The campfire is in the foreground, Ruyn can be seen standing with her back to the fire, her bloodied hands outstretched. Ruyn is staring at her bloodied hands, her expression unreadable. It is implied that she has no idea what just happened.

#Tavember Tattoo

Ruyn has tattoos all over her arms, chest, torso, and back, as well as three ravens on her cheek. She doesn't remember getting them of course, but she really likes them. Ruyn doesn't learn how or why she got them until much later. (spoilers below) 1/3

📸 by me
#TavQOTD #BG3 #Ruyn
Ruyn is standing in what appears to be an abandoned chapel, it is dimly lit in green-tinged light. She is wearing a black strapless bodysuit where you can clearly see her swirling black tattoos on her arms, chest, and torso. Her raven tattoos on her left cheek are light, but can also be seen if you are looking for them.

#Tavember Motive
CW: Blood

Ruyn's motives evolve over time.

At first: Survival.
As Ruyn learns who she was and how she was betrayed: Retribution.
When the whole Absolute plot unfolds: Freedom.
Now: Happiness.

📸 by me
#TavQOTD #BG3 #Ruyn
Ruyn is on the Nautiloid, wearing rags and shackles on her wrists and ankles, as if she broke free from chains. She is covered in blood. Ruyn stands in the courtyard of the goblin camp with her hands outstretched. She is surrounded by goblin bodies, blood, and destruction. She is wearing her black leather armor and she carries her two staves on her back. This is the landscape of the mountain pass. You can see the spires of the Rosymorn Monastery, mountains, waterfalls, trees and other foliage in the early morning light. Ruyn and Astarion are at the cliff where they first met. Astarion hugs Ruyn from behind, Ruyn has her hands on Astarion's forearm. Both are smiling. Ruyn is wearing a dark red dress and Astarion is wearing a black shirt.

#Tavember Weak

Seeing Astarion smile. Really, truly smile. Ruyn would do just about anything to give him more moments of happiness.

#TavQOTD #BG3 #Ruyn
Ruyn and Astarion are outside during a sunny day, near a body of water. Astarion is in the forefront, looking up at the sunny sky and smiling. He is wearing black pants and a black shirt with a deep V-neck. Ruyn is in the background, smiling as she watches Astarion enjoy the sunlight. She is wearing black leather pants and a dark sleeveless cutaway shirt.

#Tavember Nature

Outwardly, Ruyn is stoic, decisive, and comes off as cold - because she thinks she has to be. She has a lot of self-doubt that she shares with no one. Privately, Ruyn cares deeply for her chosen few, is fiercely protective, and surprisingly is darkly funny. 1/2

#TavQOTD #BG3 #Ruyn
Ruyn is pictured from the waist-up, her hands folded in front of her. She is wearing her black leather armor and is looking directly at the viewer with a small smile. She is in some sort of crypt, dimly lit by a couple of candles.
