Oh hey! You can now pick up full character sheets (complete with stat blocks!) for Morelia and Nymwen on my Patreon! Morelia: www.patreon.com/posts/pdf-morelias-66630920 Nymwen: www.patreon.com/posts/pdf-nymwens-75725780

Plot twist: Nymwen successfully raises Ayana but Ayana's like "thanks can you raise my girlfriend too?"

I want to party with all of them

"Written by a poet over a century long dead" *Cracks Knuckles* I didn't get kicked out the Arcane University for nothing!

“I gotta... Eargh... plantz. Plantz in mah bag” My character when searched at the entrance to a city.... they were arrested for smuggling alcohol

I love the second one. I’d twist it- she was in love with the writer 100 years ago when she herself was quite young. When her partner died (fevor? Violence?) She had given/gotten a memory wipe because it was easier/cheaper than true ressurection- or maybe forbidden and thus an assassination? When she found the words in the book, something inside her recognized the writing- she doesn’t realize it yet, but if the party does ressurect the partner, the partner will gasp with joy etc etc. It will be a happy end to a romeo/juliet tale...

The diamonds on the True Resurrection scroll are a nice touch.

I'm just so pleased that there's such a thing as a professional Tolkien language scholar!

These are so well written, and honestly, they're helping me with ideas for character voices more than anything else! I feel giving interesting and diverse voices and accents to my NPCs is where I'm most lacking as a DM

I love them! Nymwen's a lot to unpack. Fan tracks down favorite author and disturbs their rest... As a GM, I'm thrilled, but as a writer, unnerved. Love her aesthetic tho.

Pyriel can step on my neck and call me poor honestly.

My Dwarf Mercenary: "Lady, we are going to that banquet together and we are going to SLAY. Either meaning, depending on your budget"

Don’t think for a moment that I WON’T steal these

Oh I'm stealing that last one. The party is already invited to a large noble banquet and this could make it more fun

Your Southern English accent is really good, you should consider doing more with your voice since you seem to have a knack for accents (like Jester's)

LOL, "I'm out here hording elf characters like it's my job... I guess it KINDA is..."

Pyriel:seeks revenge Me: good for her

Is it just me, or does Pyriel's blouse have *strong* Jaskier vibes? I love it! And a round of applause for for the make-up jobs in this one! So good.

Pyriel could be a FUN quest find a way or WAYS to publicly shame/humiliate her, former lover OHH YESSS that would be fun indeed and a way to have players think outside the box

I got the “wood elf” cherry wood dice vault for my beau 🥰 I actually bought it for him for his birthday (tomorrow)! He opened it early yesterday so he could use it in our Monday night D&D game and then we watched this video and he was like OMG THATS MY DICE VAULT!! 🥳 So now it’s extra special for him because he feels like it’s been magically blessed by you Ginny 😜 Thanks for the NPC ideas! Amazing as always!

Posted on my birthday! The best gift 😊

Wow, Ginny as a Drow is pretty... tall. Jokes aside, these were all wonderfully thought out. The pixie's tongue would probably work better as a moss or other bryophyte, but the ivy would have to be a bit magical to survive inside a cave. But if it were more of a wyvern-habiting, deep running ravine open to the sky above where the ivy grows along the walls [mumbles in world building].

I'm running a game with some internet friends and the wizard lost her bra betting on the rouge in a drinking game with a bard npc who's part teifling. I wasn't expecting it needless to say and had to take a pause because I was laughing too hard

Morelia sounds like she'll get along with my half-orc, Iris. She's a druid- artificer. She kinda of an herbalist.

2021 Resume - Elf Hoarder. "Could you maybe explain this in slightly more detail, please?"

DM Ginny: "Man it sucks that I made these characters and my Players never got to interact with them. I spent so much time on them, Too bad I can't just give them away.... Unless?"

These are all fantastic! The lovestruck scholar obsessing over a woman long dead is so tragic and so romantic, major Mr Freeze vibes, I am definitely dropping that in as a side story in my solo game next time my brother stops by a temple. And you can also bet that Ianna is gonna turn out to be a pretty interesting character once raised!

I have a character that would LOVE Pyriel’s offer and would have a high chance of extending the humiliation to a few other guests at the banquets. Can’t really ask my GM to throw that in just to annoy some nobles, could I?

I'm making a poet bard with themes surrounding death and darkness, so when I heard Nymwens plot line I was like "I wish I could meet you!"

i too am a dramatic lesbian who has fallen in love with a long dead poet

For nymwen, my character would put her hand on her sword, then remember what she would do to have her own love back.

I can see Pyriel's character as a back drop for an interesting story, going a very tragic rout if you really wanted to go the court intrigue rout of adventure. What if Pyriel's former lover Vendric the Earl was killed and swapped out by a gang of doppelgangers infiltrating the court for the BBEG... she hires the party to disgrace 'not kill' the Earl. Due to the tradgic nature of his death & his honor being so disputed by the public, at that sourced by his own lover not knowing the truth His spirit manifests as a Phantom or a Revenant. As a Revenant he goes full on path of Wrath after the Doppelgangers that killed him, the party who ruined his good name, and Pyriel for breaking his heart. Each time Slain coming back the next night to hunt them down one by one, even to the point where the doppelgangers pleading the party for help? Or as a Phantom he haunts Pyriels estate, the scene of his violent sudden and very untimely death, driving off her servants due to these hauntings. Night after night at witching hour recreating a ghostly play of his violent Murder by Doppelgangers who are wearing the faces of people the Players may actually trust, including Pyriel, this too would lead to the Servants thinking Pyriel has something to do with all this, they attempt to go into hiding out of fear. onlookers must make a save vs Wisdom/Charisma of be forced into a magically imposed grief, unable to do anything but feed the phantom there unfathomable tears of sadness. Vendrics fatal last moments are her face smiling down sadisticly as she plunges a distinct weapon into his chest then being dragged away by the conspirators. The thing that's going to throw the party? Vendric the Earl is still alive it would seem and he has been seen by his servants, and plotting revenge against the party for making a fool of him?

One question Ginny- Where do you find or how do you come up with your names for characters? They're always so good 😩

And I am already thinking up ways for my PC's to meet Pyriel, because I know that we ALL have fun with that sidequest. Love these characters!

They were all fun but I love Morelia and her problem!

You know, Pyriel the Noble reminds me of something one of my player's said(while i was running a Dragon Age rpg game): "When the Orlesian's play their games, nobody wins."

Ginny coming up with some well flushed out npc's while I'm over here going. Uh his name is.... tim??

Hoard more elf characters PLEASE I love them 😭😭😭

I was certain one of the characters was only going to be someone pretending to be an elf

These are all so creative! I was already playing out the interaction with Nymwen in my mind lol, going to send this video to my DM so he can incorporate her!

damn, the production quality in this is enormous

I like that you start your vids with "Hey friends"

I love Pyriel's outfit, also now that she's single if she ever wants to mingle... 👀

I like Nymwen so much! I'm a bit worried by how much I identify with her... I love how each of these characters invite players to explore their character's moral compass.

As someone who has read a bout load of articles about the Drow to deepen my RP knowledge and has also read The Legend of Drizzt Saga by R.A. Salvatore, I was extremely impressed by how much Pyriel reminded me of the matron mothers! If you're okay with it, could I write her into a short story or one of my novels as shady contact or an antagonist?

All of these outfits are so cute. I love all of them. I hope you upload videos on how to make them, or the creative process for them! Your work is always top notch 💖

I’m pretty sure I drank one of Morelia’s love potions.

Idea about Nymwen! Ok so basically in the lore of Forgotten Realms, there are a limit to the number of elves' souls right? With the dream of the elves being memories from their time in Corellon's company or other past lives... So, when Nymwen tries to ressuscitate the poet, turns out the poet's one of her past lives and the reason she loves the poetry so much is because the poems were written to her soulmate or something like that. So if she goes on with the spells it can fail and/or go horribly wrong (Like, killing her on the spot, or raising a soulless version of the poet). And the player have to decide if they want to help her fix this horrible mistake, or just leave her at her tragedy.

Fabulous again! And those dice vaults. So gorgeous!

I love how you've makes these characters, and the other NPCs you've shared. They have lots of personality and feelings, but also so open that it's easy for a DM to use. Well done as always Ginny! Also a perfectly woven in sponsor 👌

A great job of making product placement unobtrusive. Well done!

Aye! I made it early and am absolutely delighted. Thank you Ginny! Morelia is definitely going to make an appearance in my campaign!!

Literally crave these NPC videos. They save so much work and with the way you breath life into them, really helps to visualise them! Thank you and I will be stealing one or all :P

Ginny! These were amazing! Your acting chops never cease to impress and only brought out the wonderful diversity in these intriguing elves so much more brilliantly than a simple description alone! Bravo!

The Arcane Trickster rogue in our party (described by the player as a high elf who prefers low places) recently acquired a spell that he THINKS is true resurrection, but which we players know will actually create a mindless zombie. It's only a matter of time until he used it, thinking he's doing someone a huge favor.

My birthday is Valentine's day also, I really enjoyed this video :-)

I am speechless. It must have took hours to get into costume for all those characters just for one short video, but I thought it was cool as hell. Thank you, and thank you for writing them. Your sponsor is cool as hell, too. Tolkien elvish on a dice box. What a great way to pay tribute to the king himself.

I don’t play D&D (I REALLY want to but can’t find anyone to play it with), but I love these videos because I just love seeing the incredible characters you create! They’re a joy to watch!

I used the love potion in the well bit. It was great. That NPC is now a permanent player in this one town of mine. She sent them off to a local cave filled with cave lurkers, shriekers, and even a gaseous spore. They kept failing their perception check and thought I really threw a beholder at them. It made for a great side quest. They now like to always stop at the NPC's shop when they pass through to see what new items she has available.

I love these! personally I love changing up the subraces, so I think I'll make the wild wood-elf a love-sick scholar; the high-elf anguished noble; and the drow the soft and gentle herbalist and local fascination of the town. Thank you for the inspiration!

I love Nymwen and Pyriel! They're perfect for my high elf Sorcerer, Miana, who was born and raised with nobility, confined to the family manor for 100 years to study magic (not that she needed to, her parents didn't know how Sorcerers work), and her room was a library. She's 120 years old, if you were wondering

This is absolutely amazing and i didn't even finish the video yet, i just know Edit: i was right, this is great!

as a new dm, im totally getting inspired by the first character- im hoping to have her be the first key to the campaign im running !! thank you so much for taking the time and effort to make these wonderful characters.

These were amazing?! I'd love to interact with any of these fine elves in a campaign!

I love these, all of your NPCs are so charming in their own right! Absolutely interested in a continued series!!!

I found this channel last night while prepping a short adventure for a beginner level group. I've been playing for a long time but the game is constantly changing,, as I am sure you know. Your advice to players and DM's sounds like some I might have given, so MUCH respect. I'm going to recommend this channel to every role player I know.

"Adopt an NPC" isn't a bad name for this series. I hope you make more in the future!

Extra fun and a plot hook could be had by the potions getting outside the town. A curious PC drinks it and suddenly has a vision of Morelia. That was not the voice I was expecting for Nymwen. Ooooh. She has so much potential. For love or heartbreak. Omg, I love Pyriel. You could also make things difficult by dividing noble allegiances between the two. I could also see a touch of sadness added in, a PC with good Perception could hear her crying when they leave after informing her the deed is done.

I love your NPC videos Ginny! I'm hoping to start a campaign with some friends soon so to pay on how long it lasts one or two of them will likely make an appearance in it.

Whoah! These were all fantastic ideas for NPCs - and even with plot hooks! Love them! I hope I can include them into a campaign somehow!

All of these ladies are iconic, lovely and absolutely incredible!

I love all of them just as much as I loved the first batch! Your players are lucky to have you as a DM!

The NPC’s YOU make for us do steel/use is very helpful. PS: LOVE YOUR VIDEOS 💙💜💚

As a DM, both this video & the last NPC video have been a great help, I would loooove to see one with 3 Tiefling NPCs!

I love the idea of Nymwen as the BBEG- the parasocial romance.

Jeez how are you so good at voices, give me your voice, imma steal it

I didn't realize this was coming out so soon! What a lovely Monday surprise! And, not surprising at all, I love all of them. I recently played in a game where an NPC tricked my party into helping her resurrect her lover, who turned out to be a powerful necromancer and may now be the big bad? It did not go well for us.

This is such a great set of characters! Excellent idea - I use them all!

This is AMAZING, I'm so into these as writing prompts.

This is absolutely amazing in both utility and just cosplay. I love each one

Awesome! I'm impressed by how distinct they all are, even down the voice and body language.

Sponsored by Wrymwood! That’s awesome! Also I love these so much! The characters are amazing and I’m glad that they’re themed! :D

This is by far my favorite series on your channel, the costumes, the stories, the acting - everything is awesome! I really appreciate all the creativity and work you put into these.

This is how you have a sponsor. Great video and great way to incorporate it all.

I love them!!! I'm always excited to see the new characters & stories you create :3

I love this! I've run one or two valentines day one-shots and was always a little disappointed that they were just generic love stories with the players as middle-men. But these are romance plots that are really well-developed and unique! Thank you for this video!

I love all the opportunities these NPCs can bring. The characters are awesome and I love them.

That bone inlay looks SO good!! These are great!

Yes!!! It feels like Christmas or my birthday!!! Thank you!!! This is really helpful. I am making my first campaign and I really appreciate being able to use these.

Absolutely love love these! Thank you for making these lovely plot hooks, characters, and allowing us free use of them!

Ginny you’re just the best- I’m bingeing all your videos and haven’t last interest for a single moment 🥺🙌🏻💕🧙🏻🧝🏼‍♀️

They are so cool! Thank you!

The first one reminds me of a Buffy episode "bewitched bothered and bewildered" (a very Ginny Di title) ... Could be a good opportunity for us to give that plot a 2021 treatment with regards to consent and bodily autonomy!

This is amazing as usual! Well done!!!

Oooh I love these videos so much, all of these are such great characters!!

This is awesome. Thanks for the inspiration!

Great video! Thanks for sharing!

This is such a great and helpful series, thank you so much for continuing it! 🌸

this is so goooooodddd!!! the vaults are so nicely matched and these characters are all so fun, and their costumes!! lovely from top to tail

Ginny, all of them were good, but of the three i certainly like the Scholar the best. I could just see some real dark mojo coming down once she raises the Poet from the dead. I get the sense that she knows too much and understands too little. Beautiful idea for an NPC! :)
