Does Velia have any traditional sphinx clothes? Oh also, in my D&D campaign, the party met Velia! She was tricked into guarding White Plume Mountain and only letting groups that solve her riddle in. Out of all the players, only the sorcerer's pseudodragon familiar could answer the riddle! Afterwards, Velia joined the party and uses her magic to assist the players, with the intent of trying to remove the control diadem stuck to her head so she can leave.
She’s usually in a modern setting, so I draw her with a normal t-shirt, but if you’d like to give her something more...fantasy, some etrurian garb might do!
I’m very glad they managed to solve her riddle, and I hope they free her!
Sorry for the late reply, I didn’t get any notification.
