MysteriousPast: To an extent. She herself doesn't know whether Brinemaw kidnapped her or if Mariska was given to the sea hag, and also no idea if any of her sisters are actually related to her.
* NiceGuy: Despite working as a hustler and a backstory of becoming engaged to a man for his wealth, she does it to take care of her family and is friendly with the listerner after they decline a game, even casting a spell to grant them good luck for free.
* OnlyOneName: So far as anyone knows.
* RunawayBride: Her background. She became engaged to a rich human in the hopes he'd be able to protect her from Brinemaw. When she found out he'd actually gambled his fortune away the four sisters promptly fled.

* ChaoticNeutral: Her World Anvil page states that this is hr alignment. This is supported by her view of laws. The way she delivers "But also, lots of things are against law" when talking about crimes she commits implies that she doesn't see the need for some of them. This might connect to her background in a mountain clan, which presumably had looser laws than the more urban city she works in.

* Flanderization: Combined with Early Installment Weirdness. In Nymwen's first appearance, her voice is much less high and whiny. She is also more cordial and less haughty. By the time she appears again in her own POV roleplay video, her voice cadence has been exaggerated and her snootiness is evident. Also, in her first appearance, Nymwen was merely a scholar, with Ginny suggesting that she be a cleric if the party in question has no cleric. In her next appearance, Nymwen was confirmed to be a spellcaster and her World Anvil page listed her as a cleric.
* HaveYouSeenMyGod Despite being a cleric, Nymwen does not have a god that she worships mentioned anywhere. This is presumably to make it easier for DMs to slot her into their world by accounting for the fact that all DMs don't use the same pantheons.

Ranger (Grove Warden)



* BareYourMidriff
* CaringGardener: It's mentioned that she would take up gardening magical plants.
* CastFromHitPoints: Artemisia possessed a magical lantern that glows with life energy. According to her, if she sacrifices some of her own life energy, she can use it to detect undead or breathe underwater.
* ForestRanger: Her D&D class.
* FriendToAllLivingThings: Artemisia has shades of this, though she leans more towards plants than animals.
* GreenThumb: Has powers rooted in nature. She also know hedgecraft, allowing her to use magical plants to cast spells up to the 3rd level.
* InSeriesNickname: Sometimes called "Misia."
* InterspeciesAdoption: Artemisia was raised by Oakshadow, a treant.
* UsefulNotes/IrishAccents: Ginny gives her a consistent Irish accent.
* MeaningfulName: Artemisia is also the name of a plant, tying her back to her background as a treant's adopted child and a NatureHero. Lampshaded by Artemisia herself:
** "It's a sort of plant, which makes sense if a tree named you."
* NameAmnesia: Presumably had an alseid name, but cannot remember it, which is why she goes by the name Oakshadow gave her.
* NatureHero: And how. Artemisia is an alseid, and alseids are explicitly tied to forest habitats. She was raised by a treant and became a grove warden ranger, which, in her own wards, means that the earth itself will rise up to protect her.
* NonHumanHumanoidHybrid: Artemisia is an alseid, which is essentially a deer centaur, also described as half elf, half deer.




to:

* OurCentaursAreDifferent: Her lower half is that of a deer rather than a horse. She also has corresponding antlers.
* PrimalFear: Is wary of fire, justified by her entire grove being wiped out by one.
* SoleSurvivor: Her entire grove of alseid was wiped out by a forest fire. She refers to herself as "the last of my people," but it's unclear whether she means she's the last of her grove, or the last alseid period.
