What would the vibes be for an oc like this?
Named Daelynn, she hails from the Western region of Wildemount, though she never clarifies the specific location. Daelynn claims to have a caretaker from whom she was separated from and is searching for. She’s a perceptive child, often reminding others in the party their actions will have unforeseen consequences further down the road. Indeed, she is a child wise beyond her years. Perrich, an adolescent hyena, is her animal companion. The hyena is shown to be loyal and protective of the child, however he can behave like a mischievous puppy. Daelynn has expressed many times her love for the other members of the Mighty Nein, Fjord especially.
In “Homeward Bound” Daelynn reveals to Yussa Errenis that she isn’t human.
A young humanoid ranger, a child who has been living in a sprawling wilderness along the Amber Road. They operate in the shadows, a quiet young thing, looting the pockets and carts of those who pass through.
On a particularly quiet day, they discover a half orc caught in a rope trap and, with some hesitation, decide to free them. They suggest the orc be more careful: there are those who hunt monsters in the woods. The young ranger quietly leads them back to their partner, listening intently as the orc voices his thoughts. There’s an occasional question but they never answer.
They soon reunite the half orc with their traveling companion, a blue tiefling. Shy, they stick to the tall grasses. They watch from their hidden position as the half orc recounts his journey and notes the path they were on was not a shortcut as the tiefling had, at one point, sworn by. Then he gestures with his head in the direction where the woods begin to clear and tall grass rises.
There is an exchange of whispers amongst the pair before the half orc approaches and kneels before the grass.
“You’re welcome to join us on the journey.”
The child, like a weasel, pops their head out of the grass, coming face to face with the half orc. They let out ‘humph’, then cower in the thrush.
Back on their rightful path, thanks to the keeper of the Amber Road wildlands, the two continue on. The tiefling and the half orc, on their way to Rexxentrum. The tiefling expresses her concern and wants for the child to join them if, even for a little while, she just feels bad for the small one, being all alone. The half orc offers that perhaps the child had family nearby, however inside he knows this to be false.
Then there’s a sneeze. The two are immediately put on the defensive. Once they see who stands behind them, they lower their arms. It’s the child. She stands on the path behind them, apparently unfazed by their threatening stance. An adolescent hyena is at her side, a single one of her hands stroking their speckled fur.
“Canwe come with you?”
