Liya Tana, wood half elf lore bard/feylock (chain)
She is a pen & paper character, I'm playing currently in a campaign. SHe was made in the Greyhawk setting and grew up in Saltmarsh. Her mother, a human, and her father, an elven ranger, hooked up for a short while, but didn't stay togetehr. They are still friends though. Liya moved with her mother in a bigger city, where her motehr married a noble. Liya lived with them until she was of age and studied at the bard college there. She still has contact with her real father too and is currently in Saltmarsh again (where our adventure takes place).
As a character, she knows etiquette, because she grew up in a noble household, but she prefers the honest wilderness out there with her father and his fellow rangers. I gave her some nature themed spells from the bard list, like Speak with Animals. She also is pretty sarcastic sometimes and for a bard more on the introvert side. She loves making music and she can be charming, she just doesn't always like it.
For BG I moved her to live and study in BG. She was taken by the Nautiloid one eveing after a successful musical perfomance at the birthday of Lady Jannath.
I use one of the ingame pics for the token in our ttrpg.

And you might wonder, why fyli, the advocat for small races, plays a half elf? We had so many small race characters in our group, that I decided to play a half elf for once. And against all odds, I really liked Liya (I have nothing against elves and half elves btw, I played them before, I just feel the need to advocate for teh small races in BG3, becaue ttrpgler know already, how awesome they are)
