Kaelen starter

The sun had just begun to set, the skies colours only just beginning to change, though it would get dark fairly soon so the safest bet was to set camp now and continue on by morning.

Kaelen had helped gather wood to burn for the fire and once she figured they had enough to keep it going a while she sat by it, sitting in the opposite direction of any wind so she could avoid getting smoke in their eyes while enjoying the warmth and watching the flicker of the flames.

They found it oddly calming to just watch the flames burn away at the wood, cracking stick apart and bark off logs while it all turned to ash and charcoal. That and the light of the dancing flames was just a pretty sight.

Then, thinking the evening was getting too quiet with nothing but the crackling fire and soft chatter of a few companions, kaelen brought out her lyre for a soft melody. The sound of the strings' rhythm made for good background noise more than crickets randomly chirping at odd moments around the camp.

Of course if anyone had any requests, kaelen was always more than happy to hear them out. They not everyone enjoyed music all that much so they wouldn't be surprised if one of those requests was to stop playing all together.

At least it was the lyre and not the violin this evening. Lae'zel didn't seem all that fond of the noise it made when she was tuning it before.

Meet Kaelen/Tav

General-

Name: Kaelen

Pronouns: she/they primarily but doesn't mind he/him

Age: mid-late 20's

Race: Changeling

Class: rogue-bard

Alignment: chaotic neutral

Weapons: dagger, light crossbow, whip

Instruments: violin and lyre

Identity-

Kaelan is gender fluid, in the sense that her gender tends to change based on the appearance or form she takes that day or in that moment. Outside of that though they may actually be agender.

As for their orientation, it's about the same, generally she's unlabeled but the label she uses be it pan, lesbian or gay will change with her appearance and gender if she feels it needs to (she's attracted to people regardless of gender however so the safe bet is to just say kaelen is queer)

Personality-

Pros: humourous, caring, flexible, compassionate and creative

cons: easily distracted, lacks organization, impulsive and cocky

neutral: optimistic, quick witted, tolerant.

Kaelan is a pretty easy going person except instead being the "go with the flow" type she's very much a "fuck it, whatever happens happens lets do it" kind of person.

They have a positive attitude towards most outcomes, if something fails her reaction is to accept it and try something else. She's the kind of person to smile and laugh at the downsides, find a solution to them and not let them get to her.

Because of this they will more often than not make impulsive decisions without really considering the outcomes and almost blindly accepting whatever the outcome ends up being. That means if they ever do have a plan they're making it up as they go.

She might seem like the type to joke in a serious moment, and while she might if she thinks a laugh will cheer you up, but she's able to create the room better than you'd think, often offering whatever might help better be it a hug or and ear.

Relationships-

(open to tav x any companion)

Boundaries-

Flirting: okay

Touch: okay

nicknames: okay

pet names: ask

borrowing things: ask

gifts: okay (do expect something in return, they will likely try giving back everytime)

Extra-

Kaelen started out as a bit of a pickpocket and prankster, eventually picking up a musical talent and finding it incredibly useful for distractions and even making getting off Scott free with something that doesn't belong to her much easier.

She's the walking definitely of watch the hands not the mouth and anyone who knows the changeling well enough knows this well.

Though most of their targets for pickpocketing and pranks have always been strangers that aren't really aware they're a changeling.

It's rare for kaelen to steal from those she's close with but not rare for them to pull a prank on friends.

You're free to ask for things such as established relationships, specific scenarios etc
