mainly cuz I been contemplating this for a while now but regarding main pathfidner group I’m in and my elven bard’s relation with the team!
Derrik, the half orc gun slinger: The one they’d be the fastest to call “friend.” It’s atcually pretty common for Derrik to follow Mal and vice versa, to varying degrees of effectiveness. Mal’s basically from a hippie commune so they lack the whole “dwarfs and orcs are shit, hate them” mentality so while it might be odd, Mal thinks it’s fine. If he were to attempt “seduce the NPC” and fail, Mal would attempt to show him up tho and do the same with probably more success due to bard. This is a sign of endearment.
Drago, the kitsune ninja: Not a huge fan. Draco has a “kill ‘em all” sort of mentality and Mal’s not ok with that. If, for what ever reason, one party member has to be used as a sacrafice, Mal’d vote Draco. they’d also try and figure some way AROUND that but Draco is their allie of choice for that. They will potentially do things out of spite to Draco if they deam it harmless, such as keeping him from getting the beaten up horse.
Wyn, the rogue catfolk: Due to her player being unable to attend for personal reasons, Mal hasn’t gotten to know Wyn outside her NPC status. However she’s fluffy and enjoys healing pets so she’s on the positive side.
Angus, the full orc witch: A healthy level of respect and fear. Leans slightly to fear.
