Big shocker, she's most like this loser:

OC Tarot Card

Thanks @rooks-dagger for the tag! Another fun one to chew on!

Tagging my love @dancing--lights, @dudewheresmynug, @in-the-drowning-deep and @antivan-sprig but, as always, no pressure!

Link to the quiz here

Lillia "Rook/Lily" Thorne - The Lovers 💞

Interesting! Alright so according to this website, The Lovers card represents:

UPRIGHT: Love, harmony, relationships, values alignment, choices

REVERSED: Self-love, disharmony, imbalance, misalignment of values

The card itself feels very Lily. She is very much a character that is and has always been driven by love. She joined the Grey Wardens after her village was attacked by darkspawn and her parents were killed in the fray. Yes, it was a choice driven in part by survivor's guilt, but it was also one driven by love and her bonds with people. It gets at a core value of hers, to protect. She wants to protect those who matter to her, but she also doesn't want something like that to ever happen to anyone else again either.

Now the description from her quiz result is a bit more complex. This sense of dread even when she's with her lovers, Liv and Neve, is not present. Lily is someone who loves life and will throw her entire self into love. She's a Warden. She doesn't know how long she has, and so she wants to soak up every little bit of life and joy and love without reservation. That being said, that nagging fear is present in other aspects of her life. The card reversed can symbolize imbalance. Lily is worried deep down that she's not enough. And that sometimes leads to her being a bit of a martyr and taking care of everyone else while neglecting her own needs. She couldn't protect her family when it mattered most. And maybe if she can be strong enough, fast enough, good enough, this time it can be different.

Just a day in the life of Liv x Lily x Neve at the Lighthouse. The thing you gotta remember about Lily is that she’s a little stupid and a lot food motivated.

Your OC in the ballroom

Thank you @rooks-dagger and @in-the-drowning-deep for the tag! This one was so fun to think about!

Lillia "Rook/Lily" Thorne

Clothing

What’s your OC’s go-to aesthetic for a ball? Is it consistent or varied? What’s their goal behind this? are they just trying to fit in, to distract, to mislead?

For all Lillia's virtues, she's sometimes a bit of a peacock. She knows what she looks like, and if you got it, flaunt it! I was seeing a long embroidered coat for her. Sure, the leader of the Veilguard's gotta look good, but she also has Neve and @dancing--lights' Liv to woo like some sort of prince charming.

Location

Where are you most likely to find your OC during a ball? Balcony? Bar? Spying behind privacy screens?

Lily likes people and she likes drinks, which balls have plenty of! She's also more...agreeable than Liv, so she can handle any politics with Neve. Lily can be found charming the pants off people or on the dance floor with her loves.

Dancing

What’s their opinion on dancing? Do they have a favorite type of dance?

Lily really likes dancing, but she doesn't know any formal dances. Liv teaches her. They practice in their apartment when Neve is out so that Lily can dance with both of them at the ball. Gentle smiles and lavender eyes locked with dark caramel as they dance around the living room, they move slowly at first and then more confidently as Lily picks up the steps. Both snort with laughter when Lily steps on Liv's toes. Liv kisses her for reassurance, and they start again. Lily surprises Neve when her and Liv take to the dance floor just like they practiced at their apartment in Dock Town. And then Lily dances with Neve too, her signature smirk in place at Neve's shock.

@dancing--lights, I've called you out for writing fanfic at 3am.
