What started as a Pathfinder ratfolk character (Zozka) evolved into a bunch of non-TTRPG original characters :3
Meet the Neyans! Most of their designs are inspired from D&D’s schools of magic, some are definitely not. What a bunch of posers. More details under the cut.
Side note: in my “story” witch and wizard are gender neutral terms that refer to different types of spellcasters. A witch has innate powers, a wizard has to use a magical focus (wand, crystal, whatevs) and study hard to practice magic. Also familiars are a witch thing- wizards’ familiars are more pets than assistants. Also there’s no such thing as “schools of magic”- nothing against D&D, I love it!
(In case tumblr dot com messes up the order of the pictures:)
Zozka (she): witch, firstborn. A “late bloomer”, she was the last in the family to develop her powers. Her coat is a lucky charm- she used to think it was her focus. not straight, doesn’t dislike boys tho
Eldon (he): wizard, secondborn. Exorcist, pretty good at handling the undead- not so good at handling demons. He travels with his barn owl Alba (she). oh yeah he’s also a trans man and a disaster bi
Vellian (she): witch, third child. Excellent at teleport spells. She rides a “probably slightly illegal” modified motorcycle. Chaotic hothead and flaming pansexual, wo hoo
Nova (she): wizard, 4th. Navy astronomer, nerd, bookworm, naive sweetheart. Pretty good at fencing and polyglot. most anxious lesbian you’ll ever meet
Virgil (he): witch, 5th kid. Chill fashionista. Best friend with his crow familiar Andante. Theatre kid, could have a great career but he prefers adventuring. Flirts a lot but only with boys, and asexually.
Ari (they): wizard, 6thborn, Rebus’ twin. Unwilling soothsayer, history major. Sometimes they read minds on accident- sometimes they pretend it was an accident. Sarcastic. “I may be aro, I might not be. Meh.”
Rebus (they): witch, 6thborn, Ari’s twin. Nobody knows how they lost their limbs: they tell a different story everytime. Enfant prodige, they taught themselves 5 languages (2 of which dead) with flashcards. Can be sincerely terrifying if angered. The bells on the coat are silent. “Labels? I prefer waffles thanks.”
Olissa (she): witch, mother. Goth. Loves black roses, tea and esotericism books. Powerful -yet humble- spellcaster and summoner, has several demon familiars at her service- Plague (he) is her favourite. Very wealthy. Likes to tease people, especially her husband.
Fergus (he): wizard, dad. Grumpy man with a heart of gold. Can be surprisingly insecure at times. Bookworm, devoted to his family and his studies. just ask him about Olissa and he’ll start ranting about how smart and amazing and sweet his wife is.
