#tavqotd How does your tav/durge's love interest(s) touch them sensually?
Ria will let him play with, although not pull, her hair or kiss her hands. She goes wobbly at the knees if he kisses the nape of her neck. They share baths often.

#TAVEMBER #TavQOTD What is your Tav/Durge’s iconic quote? 🍄🟫: What is their iconic catchphrase?
No real catchphrase, but I associate Ria strongly with the "should have worn better boots..." click response and fell in love with voice 4 over "Wast thy father a flounder?"
As for Ria personally?

#TavQOTD How important is hair to your Tav/Durge?
Ria's hair isn't religiously important to her, but she is vain about it— it's soft and honestly gorgeous and, furthermore, being a black-haired drow might get her two seconds of confusion to get a few words out and explain herself

#tavqotd Was your tav/durge jumpscared by Raphael's sudden introduction/appearance?
(she went with 'am I talking to the mouse or the cat?' btw)
Yes! Although 1. she froze which made it easier to hide and 2. she got her feet... mostly under her? pretty fast. She managed not to shriek, anyway

#tavqotd Does your tav/durge trust people easily?
aahahahaahhahahahaaaaaa
No.
Ria doesn't have walls so much as she has a maze inside a fortress with another fortress at its center, and like hell is she showing someone how to navigate it. This is not without exceptions, and she loves the party—

#TavQotD How stealthy is your Tav/Durge?
Reasonably. If I recall correctly, Ria only has half proficiency, but she has a decent dexterity score and a lot of practice holding to shadows. She prefers to rely on a confident walk in a costume when she needs to move unchallenged, though. Or magic.

Does Courage know about these guys?

#tavqotd Show the duality of your tav/durge? How do they balance their duality?

Ria is a bard— she loves stories and jokes and people. She can also pluck their insecurities like her lyre strings to sometimes lethal effect.

#tavqotd What's Tara's opinion of your tav/durge? This is open to all
Hari bonds with Tara by getting her fresh fish at the end of her morning runs and by virtue of having stopped Gale going boom. This goes a long way toward getting Tara past Hari liking The Beard

#TavQOTD How does your Tav/Durge love?
Ria is a private person with feelings that run *deep.* This is not to say that she cannot be demonstrative, especially with a partner (Astarion 💜) who brings out her sense of fun. But her love comes in the full weight of her focus and the sharing of her quiet.

#tavqotd What makes your Tav/Durge to lose sleep?
It's hard to exhaust an elf, but Ria will keep herself up trying to make contingencies for her contingency plans... or noodling on a song for too long, although that's more likely to attract attention that will help her put it down by bedtime

#TAVEMBER #TavQOTD What is your Tav/Durge’s nature?
I had Karlach describe Ria as a "twisty, silver-tongued fucker" for a reason. She is not soft. Sometimes she's not *nice.* She's deeply guarded and pragmatic, but with a desire to do good and a strong moral compass in there.

Oh dang! well, it's the end of the week, so we'll call this part day 2 and part day 7 (far from Ria's first battle, but definitely the most frightened she's been)

She believes that trying to help people is worthwhile and important, but that one must remain aware of the cost of one's actions. It's one of the reasons she won't call herself a hero

#TavQotD Does your OC prefer to wear pants or skirts/dresses?
Ria loves a good skirt/dress. She was very happy when she got her hands on the potent robe and performed a few twirls for effect.

#tavqotd Who is allowed to see the raw and vulnerable side of your Tav/Durge?
Ria keeps her walls up around everyone as much as she can, but if it has to come down, she'd prefer her only audience to be Shadowheart and Astarion, since they already know her best.
