Character

Personality

When it comes to Ceridwen, there is a lot to unpack. Ceridwen is the kind of person that is not easy to enjoy upon first impression. They are brash, lousy with words, and quick to disagree with people if they do something they do not like. Ceridwen does not like to stay quiet and will give their opinion about anything, even when unwarranted. Ceridwen often doesn't understand when people dislike them because of this, though. For a Rogue like them to show integrity and look out for the better of people, what is there not to like? Arguably, Ceridwen's density can come across as arrogant, especially when crossed with their pride in their capabilities as a fighter. Ceridwen thinks they are badass as fuck and every time they make a flashy kill, they just have to show it off. They didn't train all their life to not be epic, after all! While they often make bad first impressions, it does not take long for people to realize one simple fact: Ceridwen is young.

There is a lot they have not discovered about themselves or the world that they are still learning about. Ceridwen is the embodiment of ignorance is bliss, especially when it comes to a lot of the more controversial aspects of Arcadia. Ceridwen has no idea and is just exploring the land at their own pace. Social expectations? Stereotypes? They don't really know anything. When they judge people, most of it is personal rather than something related to society. Ceridwen is a non-comformist through and through, especially given that they spent most of their live out on the sea. They are adventurous! Even though they were throw out of the Krosk seas with no preparation, Ceridwen has taken comfort in the risk they take on their adventures. They are not afraid to play dirty to get by, but they strongly follow a moral code while doing so. Ceridwen tries their best not to pickpocket from people in need and even if they were broke themselves, they will give a hand to people in need. Ceridwen is not trying to be heroic, they just believe it's what should be done. Fuck the rich after all!

Most of Ceridwen's moral code come from their life experiences. They haven't ever read a book in their lives, so all their knowledge is from learning. Ceridwen is a very loyal person, especially when it comes to their morals. They may be a shitty person and a criminal, but at least they won't steal from struggling businesses. They're good like that, you see. On the topic of money... Ceridwen has become very stingy. Ever since they were left to fend for themselves on land, they became very reluctant to buy luxury items, and arguably even some necessities. Ceridwen is not scared to live off of stealing from people. Their only rules?

1. Never steal on your home turf 2. Do not steal from poor people 3. Do not steal from party members

You get the idea. They're just Ceridwen!
