Day 2: Rymi the Fae-Hunter
#CharacterCreationChallenge2026
Background
Once, Rymi was a travelling musician, plying their trade for a few coins in towns and villages of the North. One time, one of their audience was a Fae noble who was so enamored by Rymi’s voice, he offered a deal: wealth that seemed unimaginable for the young traveller for a single performance at a remote court. What he did not say was that the court in question was in the Wyld, with an audience of Fae. After what appeared to have been a single evening of celebrations and debauchery, Rymi returned to a world they no longer recognised, almost two centuries later. In addition, they had been marked by the Wyld, with one of their formerly brown eyes now a deep, emerald green that left people afraid of the obvious wyld mutant, and rarely willing to invite them into their towns and listen to their performances. Instead, Rymi began to take their revenge, hunting down fae whenever they strayed into Creation. Within a few months, rumors had spread of the stranger that sometimes rescued would-be victims or helped people lost in the forests, yet always keeping their distance. One time, however, the apparent victim turned out to be more than a mere mortal - Luna himself had come to creation, and chose Rymi as one of his Exalts.
Appearance
Rymi is thin but athletic, with an androgynous appearance and a strange twist to their features that leaves many people a little uneasy. Their hair is a little too dark, their skin a little too pale, and their left eye is a deep, unnatural green that stands out. They are rarely ever seen without a moonsilver powerbow in their hand and a feathered cloak on their shoulders.
