Reputation

Myira is snappy and can come off a bit bad-tempered. She seems to say whatever comes into her head without stopping to think about it and changes emotional states at the drop of a hat.

Hooks

I'd like to kind of dig into what it's like for Myira to really have to adapt herself to living in a human society without much of an option of NOT being in it. Alienation, frustration at not having her powers, integration, romantic and platonic connections with the others and generally exploring the world of Thedas.

Other ideas:

Myira likes to turn into her raven form and fly around the Gallows peeking into windows and getting into trouble. Does she intrude at a bad moment or see something that's supposed to be private? Or maybe you just don't like random birds flying into your room at random moments.

Myira is frustrated with how magic works here--it's different and she doesn't like it. Expect to find her grumbling and complaining about it at any given time.

Myira loves to learn but is terrible at reading. She might be found struggling with a book due to its technical or esoteric language.

Quick and Dirty: Myira is a raven. She also happens to be a witch. What that means is she has some weather magic, some warding magic, some divination magic, and perhaps the most important one for our purposes, shapeshifting magic. She's able to turn herself into a human or a raven as she wishes. It's an important skill passed down to her by her grandmother and great-grandmother once she was old enough. Being able to walk among the humans and get what you like from them can be important. Besides, sometimes they'll give you food or interesting things if you ward their crops from pests or help them find that stray cow or whatever.

Myira is fiery, crass, and can come off as a bit callous to humans. She's a carrion bird and has the attitude of one--meat is meat. She's eaten the dead on battlefields and pecked bugs from the dirt. You can't be picky about where the next meal comes from. Besides, death is a natural part of life and ravens are just helping out with that. Waste not, want not, right?

( No Poe jokes. )
