Thinking about heights/sizes and stereotypes today:
- Ysamyne, who was, until Moragesh, my tallest character, is probably the character with least chill, with the worst temper and one of the most dramatic characters - if not
- Kasmei is probably my most capable warrior (up there with Rosariah) and is a small skinny beanpole looking thing. Very deceptive. Extremely skilled and uses that perception of being a runt to her disadvantage.
- Narga and Moragesh are both beefy orc ladies who spent time in the army but their passions lie elsewhere - Narga wanted to be a musician and a mage, and left the army because she felt she was being both exploited and causing misery, and Moragesh wants to be a smith, more than a soldier, but continues to fight the Thalmor out of a sense of obligation (they need soldiers and leaders more, it turns out).
- Bthemetz is my shortest character and is absolutely fine with her height, which is the perfect height for kissing her wife's neck as far as she is concerned. Kagrenac asked her early on if she wanted her chassis to be a different size - she said no. I think she gets a kick out of being able to lift her wife despite being shorter. (By just under two inches, Kagrenac reminds her, not that it stops Bthemetz).
- Rosariah was named for her Breton grandmother who she takes after in three aspects: her slightly pointed ears, her curiousity about magic, and her short height. I think she hated being shorter on average as a kid because it marked her out as a little different - thankfully nothing ill ever came of that. I think as an adult she has come to accept those differences.
- Revas is pretty much a gentle giant underneath the severe exterior, but is a lot sharper than people assume (because of his blindness and his quietness, likely). He is very observant, hyperaware of when he is being played/manipulated, and also holds a lot of strong opinions about the law, authority, and children, and won't hesitate to act - and be vocal, or take action itself - if he is in the position to prevent an injustice.
