she/her. slowly figuring things out. scifi and fantasy trash. I pretend I know things about dogs and writing. Absolutely no genAI.

Yes! Meliahwyl is quite tolerant of the cold - at least natural cold, like winter weather. She layers up well, drinks (even more) tea and soup, the spends a lot of time in wolf wild shape to be insulated by the double coat.
Having spent so much time in the wilds has forced her to adapt!

Oh, werewolf, of course. Meliahwyl might even low-key want to become one 😅 The more reasonable side of her bats these thoughts away.

As long as it's far enough in the story that Meliahwyl trusts everyone (which doesn't take long, tbf), Meliahwyl...doesn't actually mind at all. There's community building and practical body heat sharing in bundling together.

Yes! Meliahwyl is demisexual, leaning asexual. I'm personally extremely ace, so she's a bit more allo than myself.

"Look at me. You'll be alright."
"Breathe slowly. You'll be just fine."
"Eyes on me. It looks worse than it is."

Romanced:
"I'm right here. I've got you."
"You're alright now. I've got you."
"I'm right here, Love."

It looks to be...oh no, the inside of a sentimental academic's mind. Nearly all entries are dated, but they include everything from ecological notes to landscape paintings, journal entries to biological illustration drafts, sketches of party members to random observations...oh my.

Channeling the weave with Gale went very well!
Magic is nothing new to Meliahwyl, but she typically doesn't manipulate the weave in the direct way that wizardry entails.

When Gale became a bit too intimate, she grew uncomfortable and realized that they had both misread the situation.

Happy New Year! Meliahwyl hasn't celebrated with true loved ones in a long time, and there's a lot to celebrate now that the brain is dead and Karlach is safe.

Meliahwyl is excitedly kissed by Wyll when the fireworks declare the new year!

I'm sorry I've been afk lately! I hope no one minds if I also jump on the bandwagon, even if it's a bit late 😅 I'll try to catch up with some more #tavqotd soon.

Meliahwyl is happily receiving letters! She'll be sure to pass anything on to Wyll or anyone else if it comes her way. Happy New Year!

Sylvanukkah is almost over! Its obvious inspiration is known as the festival of lights. Perhaps, for Sylvanukkah, light is celebrated in all its forms: from the frigid, reflective snow to the warm, blazing fire.

What does "light" mean to or for your tav/durge?

Also thank you so much varisia for showing me how to use the camera and pose mods 😭😭😭 these were all from tonight and I'm so proud of them! I was so bad at photo mode and the mods were so intimating. thank you friend 😭😭😭

Meliahwyl isn't much of a better, so she plays with little stones. She rolls on the losing side and adds a little pebble to the pile!

(for those curious, this is based on "dreidels", which are pictured in the first post! I didn't want anyone to feel pressured so I didn't name the sides)

Happy 4th night of Sylvanukkah! Time to play some "Spin the Claydel". It's a four-sided spinning top, and each of side means you either add to the pile, gain half the pile, gain the whole pile, or nothing happens. What is your tav/durge betting, and what side does their claydel land on?

This feels boring, but Meliahwyl just wears the default camp clothes. I genuinely can't imagine her wearing anything else. I've never actually thought about her sleep clothes! Perhaps a linen pant/shirt combo or a wool tunic-like nightgown that she embroidered leaf designs onto.

With a young Aurora on his knee, Wyll shares the story of how they came to adopt their tiny tiefling child. Now that she's come out of her shell, she insisted!

Here's an older Aurora from the character creator :)

It's the second night of Sylvanukkah! What goes better with food and drink than a good story? Cultural, travel, Wintertime - what tale does your tav/durge share over warm drinks and a roaring fire?
December 16, 2025 at 2:31 AM
#Tavqotd

Meliahwyl waits patiently to make sure everyone has taken their food first, especially the young, elderly, or injured. She's careful to take just what she needs.

If the food is in abundance, however, she'll go up again. And again. And...again.

Wyll is both terrified and impressed.
December 15, 2025 at 9:09 PM
Happy Sylvanukkah! Meliahwyl and Wyll would like to invite everyone over to celebrate their respective winter solstice celebrations. For the first night: food! What cultural, family, or learned-during-travels food/drink would your Tav/Durge consider bringing?
Meliahwyl makes lat -- I mean, leafkas.

Though it doesn't come up much, there probably isn't a pastry that Meliahwyl DOESN'T like. They're treats for her and she will inhale them all with careful, savoring gusto.

Though anything with pastry cream or akin to a cornish pasty will probably have her vibrating with anticipation. 👁️ 👁️

Genuinely don't know how to answer this one, but I'm extremely anxious about my exam and wanted to participate somehow as a distraction.

So here's a picture of my cat after she bit my leg for attention.

Meliahwyl uses her magic all the time! As a druid, her magic feels like her connection to - and conversation with - nature. She casts Speak with Animals nearly daily and will regularly use Produce Flame to start campfires.

Meliahwyl would likely be a German Shep and Shetland Sheepdog cross, possibly with some Saluki for legginess. Shelties tend to be shy with strangers but sweet, and GSDs are loyal and anxious without knowing what to do next. She isn't high energy enough to be a Tamaskan or Malamute, alas. 😅

Oh boy, the more I think about this, the more it might change...

Probably a mix of petrichor, wood, wet stone, various herbals, paper, leather, and...dog? All counterbalanced by the clarifying freshness of plants. Can't forget the mild scent of tea!

Maybe onion from something cooking...
