Character ref sheet for Artfight this year of my first Tav in BG3 who is a Mephistopheles tiefling wizard-druid, better known as the light of my eyes, the current love of my life, the character I want to put through Situations, and also Gale's lover.
plus a shaded close-up
Tavtober - Morgean
Part 4 - questions 26-30.
26. What is your Tav's personal questline name?
As companion - The merciful tiefling
As origin - The kindness of strangers
27. What D&D class would you be IRL?
Druid, hands down. Funnily enough, during the later stages of Act I, Morgean multiclassed into a druid so like. Yea.
28. Spell your OC's name in Songs
M - Mon combat (Tir dam beo) from La légende du Roi Arthur
O - One by one by Patty Gurdy feat. Hellscore
R - Rule #1 Magic by Fish in a Birdcage
G - Gather up by Peter Bradley Adams
E - Easy love by Blair St. Clair
A - Animal by RIELL & Jim Yosef
N - New world in the morning by Roger Whittaker
The songs were chosen based on two criteria; one is that the lyrics had to be meaningful or related to the character and his adventure, two is that Morgean would listen and most like the song (I was more lenient with this one).
29. A Quote that defines your Tav
Curiosity is one of the most permanent and certain characteristics of a vigorous intellect. - Samuel Johnson
30. What celestial body do you associate with your Tav?
technically not part of the category but bear with me

Nebula
Astronomy.
Also called diffuse nebula, a cloud of interstellar gas and dust.
(formerly) any celestial object that appears nebulous, hazy, or fuzzy, and extended in a telescope view.
Tavtober - Morgean
Part 5 - questions 21-25.
21. Skipped
22. Does your Tav have any irrational fears?
Less irrational, more like inconvenient. Both of these, Morgean acquired a fear of during his adventure with the Absolute.

Corpses - including skeletons. There were just too many that attacked him instead of being a decent deceased person and staying dead.
Lightning - the Wyrmway gets full blame for this, for good reason. Even though he kinda enjoyed solving the puzzles, when shit went down Morgean was done. iykyk
23. What is your Tav’s favourite non-physical thing about their partner?
Gale's knowledge. Morgean loves to listen to him talk about basically anything. The man could go on for hours about how to crack an egg, and he would cling to every word. He also loves their slow evenings when they just sit down in their comfy armchairs with a cup of hot beverage, and read together, or tell each other about whatever comes to mind at the time.
24. Your Tav and partners' ship-name
morgale...? i guess? I don't really care
25. What kind of wedding would your Tav have?
image made in Canva
A small one that turns into a big event, because "well, we CAN'T not invite this person", but that applies to half the Sword Coast after their little adventure. They do limit the guest list for the ceremony to people they consider close friends, but they are kinda forced to throw a bigger wedding reception. There's good food, and expensive wine, and cheerful conversation. They hold the party at a nearby forest clearing to honor Morgean's druid connections, but otherwise the two of them make it into a show off their wizard prowess, and they pester Withers into calling in another favor from Milil. The deity of song gets occupied by Alfira very early, but then the two of them play the best concert Waterdeep has ever seen.

Part 4 - questions 16-20.
16. What is the first thing people notice about you Tav’s appearance?
image made in Canva
Aside for the obvious horns and tails due to being a tiefling, the first thing people notice is his bright-colored tattoo. He got it right before starting the wizard school, the artist was an acquaintance from his neighborhood.

18. If your Tav settled in a house, what sort of house would it be?
Morgean is perectly fine with Gale's house in Waterdeep. It's the biggest place he has ever lived in, he was used to one-, max two-room apartments thanks to his childhood.
19. Does your Tav have any scars with a particular story?
Nope. The ones on his face were gained by his ex-lover (accident) and by flace-planting on the rocky ground when he was a kid. He has a few, mostly unnoticeable burns and discolorations on his hands - when you are a wizard, these things happen.
20. What sort of foods does your Tav like?
Morgean likes pasta, and even though he does eat meat, vegetables are the main component of his diet. For snacks, he usually goes for nuts and berries. He can't really handle hot food, but he likes other kinds of spices.
Tavtober - Morgean
Part 3 - questions 11-15.
11. What's your OC like drunk?
Very, very, very cuddly. Like, Morgean is cuddly enough while sober, and it's a ten times worse when he consumed more alcohol than he can handle. No physical boundaries cuddly. He's also very chatty, even though he starts to slur his words so he becomes incomprehensible early in the game. He might turn into an animal because he is new to his druid powers and loses control (not like Halsin, more like on an impulse, like "oh hey the room is spinning what if i turned into a bird"). He was a lot wilder in his teens, he's calmed down a bit after turning twenty.
12. If your OC were a Disney princess (genderless) Who would they be?
Cinderella
they both have a broken family - his dad left when he was small
they both have to work hard, both are looked down upon and treated lesser, both face scrutiny by society - the whole being a tiefling thing
animal friends - Morgean made friends with Scratch, the owlbear pup, every cat he found, Tara, and the dilophosaurus at the circus
both are concerned about their looks
both had a mystical, magical guardian help them at the lowest point of their life
13. What is your Tav’s Happy Place?
Gale's lap. >:3c
14. What is your Tav's favourite dinosaur?
Dilophosaurus. Yes, it's because of the wild shape ability. Yes, Morgean found it extremely cool when Jaheira turned into one.
15. Skipped

Part 2 - questions 6-10.
6. What's your Tav's Zodiac sign?
He's a summer child because he was fashioned after the player, that is to say, he's a Cancer.
7. What 'Home' mean to your OC?
Warmth, kindness, tranquility, a cozy seat and a good book. Crackling fire and drying herbs. The vastness of the night sky above and the sharp smell of arcane magic. An excited, deep voice explaining a new spell, the soft snoring that their animal friends make while they sleep, and the spicy taste of his mother's cooking. Surprised laughter, his name being called softly. A gentle breeze, the cool yet calming touch of leaves. Being wrapped up in furs on a cold winter night, awakening to his lover placing a kiss on his cheek.

8. What's your Tav's love language?
Physical touch and quality time. He loves sharing knowledge, talking about magic and plants, and he could spend hours on Gale's lap, smooching included.
9. What does your Tav sound like to you?
I am actually happy with the og voice that I choose in the game. It's a somewhat deep, rich sound.
10. Does you OC pack snacks for the road?
Absolutely! Berries usually, or whatever he picks up on the road, but if he's leaving from his house, then it's usually dried fruits, nuts, and some jerky.
Tavtober - Morgean
Part 1 - questions 1-5.
1. What's in your OC's backpack?
music box
10 or more books, half of them about wizardry
dried starfish, matching pair with Gale
snacks (berries) just in case
2. Does your OC have any nicknames or pet names?
He reluctantly allows close friends and family to call him Mori. When he was a child, his nickname was Momo, but only his mom can call him that now. (And maybe his children)
Gale has plenty of endearments to call Morgean, but his favorites are honey and weavy (weave of my heart).
3. Your OC as a Flower

4. Your OC as an animal

5. What meme reminds you of your Tav?
Probably because this was my first playthrough, but Morgean was making the surprised pikachu face every two seconds. Boy's barely out of magic school and gets thrown right into an apocalyptic adventure. No thanks.

Did I buy a new dice set just for this post? No. Was it a big reason for it? Also no. (Well, it was. a little) But did I have fun choosing a set that was perfect for Morgean? You bet!
