Physical Description

Special abilities

Feature: Harmony’s Blessing

Your devotion allows you to sense disruptions in the natural or spiritual balance around you. Once per long rest, you can reroll any Insight or Religion check. This does not count as having advantage, and you must take the new roll. You may choose to reroll the die after knowing whether the roll succeeded or not.

Chaos is a wound in the fabric of existence, one that we must heal, no matter the cost.

Intellectual Characteristics

• I am blind to flaws in my faith or its leaders, even when they are clear.

Vices & Personality flaws

Beneath Lydia Tarrow's composed and virtuous exterior lies a series of deeply ingrained flaws that often complicate their path. Their unwavering faith, while a source of strength, blinds them to the imperfections of their beliefs and leaders, making them resistant to questioning authority or acknowledging potential corruption within the Choir. This rigid devotion can lead to moments of arrogance, as Lydia sometimes assumes their perspective is inherently righteous and struggles to empathize with those who challenge their worldview. Their past loss to Discord has left them with a simmering bitterness that manifests as a reluctance to forgive those they perceive as agents of chaos, occasionally tipping into cold, calculated vengeance. Lydia’s measured nature, while typically an asset, can also be a hindrance, causing them to hesitate in moments when swift, instinctual action is required. Their constant pursuit of balance and harmony often burdens them with a deep-seated guilt, making it difficult for them to reconcile their failures or accept help from others.

To lead is to act with precision, with a heart aligned to the greater whole, never losing sight of the equilibrium we must uphold.

Character Prototype

Prodigy

A striking figure emerges from the dim, lantern-lit avenue, their presence both ethereal and commanding. This fox-like entity is cloaked in an intricately designed black gown, adorned with gothic lace and shimmering accents, exuding an air of dark elegance. Their fur, a luminous white and light grey with faint magical glimmers, contrasts sharply with their piercing orange eyes that seem to burn with an inner flame. A mysterious symbol, glowing with an ethereal blue light, decorates their chest, pulsating faintly like a heartbeat. In one hand, they hold a radiant lantern, its light cutting through the mist, while the other remains poised as if ready to wield unseen power.
