Not that this really matters, but because I have the BG3 tag (and most things relating to it) filtered, I probably won’t see any posts about your OC. This is me extending an invitation to tag me in anything if you want. This goes for anything non-BG3 too since I miss a lot.

Lilith, from Jewish folklore, was the first wife of Adam. One story tells that Lilith refused to lay beneath Adam during sex. She believed they were created equal, both from the dust of the earth, thus she should not have to lay beneath him. After Adam disagreed, Lilith fled the Garden of Eden to gain her independence. In most manifestations of her myth, Lilith represents chaos, seduction and ungodliness. You are independent and courageous. You may be seen as bold and brash, but in reality your solitude is important to you. You don't like being tied down. You pride yourself on being honest, but this may cause hurt feelings in others. You prefer confrontation to letting things fester. Those closest to you admire your drive and your ability to speak your mind.
notes: took the hothead label a little too literally. won't let others tell her what to do and will let them know under any circumstance.
Baba Yaga
In Slavic folklore, Baba Yaga is a supernatural forest witch who usually appears as a decrepit old woman. She varies between acting as a benefactor and a villain, either helping the hero of the Slavic myth or hindering them. Baba Yaga is also cast as a Mother Earth figure, having an influence on the natural world. You are multifaceted and adaptable. You show many faces to the world depending on what is needed. You are very driven and have an incomparable presence in the lives of those closest to you. You may have difficulties with the way people see you, but those who love you can attest to how good a person you are.
notes: old woman? check. morally ambiguous? check. mother (earth) figure? check. adaptability due to always doing what is expected of and needed from her? check.
Aisha Qandisha
You are Aisha Qandisha from Moroccan folklore. Aisha Qandisha is a jinn who is imagined as a beautiful woman with alluring eyes, voice, long black hair, and the feet of a camel or goat. She is said to lure men into the desert to kill them. She is a spirit of lust, desire, and madness, thought to live near water sources. You like to think of yourself as mysterious, letting few people know you past the superficial things. You fear people knowing the real you because you think they'll hate it. You need to reconcile with the fact that other people are just as complex as you are. You think you're a bad person, but in reality you're just scared of being judged. You need to forgive yourself.
notes: thinks she's being mysterious while actually just being afraid to show her vulnerable side.
Antigone
In Greek mythology, Antigone is the daughter of Oedipus. After the quarrel between her brothers ending in them both being killed, Antigone is determined to bury Polynices despite King Creon's wishes, and is punished. For defying Creon's wishes, she is sentenced to be buried alive in a tomb. You are, above all, resilient. You have known grief in your life, but you face your trauma with your head held high. You are immensely strong, intelligent, and passionate. You don't believe in irony or indifference. You are brave and inspire awe in those who closest to you.
notes: buried alive in a tomb. yeah. she was basically buried by grief and she crawled back out and just keeps on going.
Tagged by @corvosattano and this is the rare time I actually enjoy taking a UQuiz.
Salome: Salome, from biblical literature, is remembered as the immediate agent in the execution of John the Baptist. After Salome danced before the emperor of Rome and his guests at a festival, he promised to give her whatever she asked. Prompted by her mother, she asked for the head of John the Baptist and the emperor had no choice but to oblige. Salome has become an erotic symbol in art, and is associated with her “Dance of the Seven Veils” in the Strauss opera though it did not appear in the Bible. You are bold and often speak your mind, possibly to the point of brashness. You know how to hold a grudge and have trouble moving on from troubling things in your past. You worry how others think of you, but those closest to you think of you as a steady presence and a good person. Like Salome, you are loyal, and those close to you admire that.
La Llorona: La Llorona ('the crying woman') from Mexican folklore is the ghost of a woman who steals children in order to drown them. She walks along the water wearing white, weeping for her son who she killed in a fit of madness. She is often described as a lost soul, doomed to wander the earth forever. There are things in your past that haunt you. You may sometimes be overcome by grief, but those who know you would describe you as resilient. You are highly emotionally expressive and introspective; the smallest things may lead you to tears. You are not bold, but you make up for it in compassion and warmth. You may make yourself too small, but this is something you can work on.
Antigone: In Greek mythology, Antigone is the daughter of Oedipus. After the quarrel between her brothers ending in them both being killed, Antigone is determined to bury Polynices despite King Creon's wishes, and is punished. For defying Creon's wishes, she is sentenced to be buried alive in a tomb. You are, above all, resilient. You have known grief in your life, but you face your trauma with your head held high. You are immensely strong, intelligent, and passionate. You don't believe in irony or indifference. You are brave and inspire awe in those who closest to you.
Pandora: Pandora was the first mortal woman in Greek mythology – she was molded by Hephaestus and endowed with gifts by all the other Olympian gods. One of these gifts was a jar full of all the evils and diseases which exist in the world; once Pandora married Epimetheus, she lifted the lid of this jar and set them all free, thus marking the end of the Golden Age of Humanity. Your greatest weakness - and strength - is your curiosity. You always want to know more. You are very smart and people see you as an intellectual and an authority. However, you may not always feel that you live up to the task, and the pressure can get to you. You are hopeful and have a good heart. This sensitivity can cause pain, but is also something others admire in you.

Far Cry OC Tournament Round 1b: Brittany "Brit" Seed v Charlie Berger
Info and voting under the cut!
Brittany "Brit" Seed (@henbased)
About: we all know about joseph's daughter, dead shortly after birth. well she lived. her name is brit. grew up in the system and bounced around homes until finally turning 18 and dropping out of highschool, and we pick up not long after, at most a handful of years. she's not doing so great. no job, a drug addiction, and some demons she's running away from on her high speed get-outta-dodge road trip she takes with her two foster sisters to hope county, montana, to see the dad she never knew and do a little soul searching. have an identity crisis. relapse. the concept of josephs daughter being the exact type of person edens gate preys upon is really captivates me. brit has a lot of the negative seed traits. she's mean. she's cruel. self-centered. but she's still so young, barely an adult and with hardly an idea of how to behave in the first place. traversing the world that has already deemed her a lost cause. and the cult is nice in the way society isnt, accepting, seemingly, and maybe for all the bad joseph has done (cult. murder. her dads a /murderer/), her bloodline has done, then maybe she really was always destined to be bad, so maybe there's nothing wrong with her but her blood, which is so much easier to accept (is it?). her style is what youd describe as "dumpster-diving goth", complete with bad smells and greasy hair. she learned how to apply makeup in a middle school bathroom with her fingers in bad lighting and never advanced beyond that.
Does your OC have anything to share?: brit's resilient. like a cockroach. you can't kill her and even if you do she won't stay dead, but in more of a 'shambling zombie' than anything that can be considered scary. ok well. a threat. well, okay, maybe she's both but held together by literal tendons you know.
Anything else we should know?: she has a fic called Of A Feather by @clab on ao3 if you'd like to read how shes mentally handling the whole cult-leader-father thing (spoiler: not well) [ photo of instagram user @krrowface ]
Charlie Berger (@detectivelokis)
About: Charlie is a former whitetail turned cultist. I would say she joined for love, but she initially joined because she genuinely believed John would turn her in for being a murderer (big dummy). As of 2018 she isn’t a herald, per se, but she has her own chosen and deals with all the bliss being transported in and out of the valley. She’s one mean bitch who fronts as being the biggest baby girl of all time. Massive victim complex and kind of a cry baby. It’s exactly how she ended up being John’s wifey and baby mama.
Does your OC have anything to share?: Charlie’s strategy to win would probably just be to kidnap her opponents and force them to admit that they want to lose to her, they always want to feel second best to someone like her. She would definitely try to gaslight, gatekeep, girlboss her way to a win. Her selling points for herself: She’s kinda cute for starters. An incredible sharpshooter. And she’s not a cop! She would never arrest you for any crimes you commit! If you just vote for her (and join her In Eden’s Gate) you too can live deliciously, or whatever it is people in cults say.
Anything else we should know?: The art is by @delicateweapon
