giving into the [outlander] peer pressure and deciding opal moved to the city after leaving the wilderness. probably around age 13.

her and her mom took whatever shitty jobs they could, usually physically demanding and not always legal. neither were especially good at socializing and opal was overwhelmed by all the people and noise. she still thinks of the Outlands as her home.

#at the start of the story shes probably like 23?#i kinda think her mom just left one day #after she was an adult ofc #im picturing someone like jahiera whos pragmatic and cynical #she didnt plan on having a kid and was more focused on making sure her child could survive than talk about feelings #never mentioned opals father #relationship wise opal is bi #most men are intimidated by her size so she has more experience with girls #some casual hookups with coworkers/neighbors #she likes making her partners happy but usually ends up feeling used #its kinda cliche for a big strong character to want to be romanced but #once again opal is the character i think the most about who isnt just defined by the game #i think i gotta keep her and play with her in something else #her main familiar is the dire raven since its the least likely to get stuck on architecture #but i think wolf fits her personality better #this backstory is to justify her rejecting lae'zel and astarian #unromantic and insincere #dove plays bg3 #she just started act which means rip to the lightning charge outfit #it was so well coordinated. tons of enemies got shocked #but she also got heavy armor proficiency so it would be a waste #she actually looks really good in the armor from the locked box above dammon #mintharas gonna be great old one warlock #tryna remember if she went back for the owlbear egg and armor #it would be easier to go back now before recruiting minth #i should specify her partners werent abusive the sex was just disappointing bc of the different expectations #and opal wasnt really able to analyze her feelings like that #so she just kinda lost interest
