The thing she collects the most is sex paraphernalia. Toys, restraints, etc. If you can find it in a sex shop, then she probably has it or looking to add it to her collection. The other thing she collects is cooking recipes to add to her repertoire.

Most would call it kind with a hint of mischief. Those who have seen the other one know she's planning something and prepare for a wild ride.
#wolqotd #LifeandTimesofTali

She absolutely is and she knows it. She's practically weaponized it for her own benefit.
#wolqotd #LifeandTimesofTali #TaliShots

Talaani's go-to color palette is red and black. It's classy and usually looks good on everything. The other two colors she wears a lot are turquoise/teal or royal Ala Mhigan purple.
#wolqotd #LifeandTimesofTali

I adore your own ship with X'rhun so absolutely yes! Here's the big four that I usually have rotating in my head. Two are w/ NPCs and two are friends!

Extremely. She'll be moaning, mewling, and whimpering the whole way through and then, at the big finale, she'll be screaming. Not to mention the levin sparks that she produced during said finale.
#wolqotd #LifeandTimesofTali #nsfwqotd

She'll wake up, make herself a light breakfast w/ tea then get dressed for the day. What follows is usually tending her garden, chatting with her retainers, and caring for her pets and mounts. From there it could go any which way
#ocqotd #wolqotd #LifeandTimesofTali

Talaani's usual perfume smells of jasmine, cedar, tea leaves, and sandalwood, but all that is to try and cover up the scent of ozone that always lingers around her. That scent is due to her strong levin alignment in her aether. Said scent tends to spook critters.
#wolqotd #LifeandTimesofTali

Good luck finding her as she'll be flitting to and from different groups, drinking, dancing, etc. Talaani is a social butterfly and will want to mingle with just about everybody. Better hope and pray she wore something that jingles a lot.
#wolqotd #LifeandTimesofTali

Talaani has a bit of a praise kink, giving and receiving! So calling her a good girl is a surefire way to put her into a subby mindset. #ocqotd #wolqotd #LifeandTimesofTali #nsfwqotd

I imagine Talaani enjoys woody amber notes as they remind her the most of both her home in the Shroud and childhood home in the Peaks. She usually wears a jasmine, sandalwood, tea leaves, and cedar perfume to cover up the scent of ozone that she naturally carries. #wolqotd #LifeandTimesofTali

Pre-ARR to STB: Talaani Baharat, pleasure to meet you~
Post-STB to EW: Talaani, Levin Stepper, how can I be of assistance?
DT: Talaani, Levin Stepper and Red Mage, nice to meet cha~!
#wolqotd #LifeandTimesofTali

It can go two ways. Either she's got a slight blush and a smirk that just screams trouble, whispering lewd thoughts to her partner OR deep full body blush, being very meek and being clingy. She can suppress it, but where's the fun in that?
#wolqotd #LifeandTimesofTali

She has two based in Gyr Abania. One is the cliff next to the Ziggurat overlooking the valley and the other is a particular rock next to the river. If she's unable to get there then she's in the hidden hot spring behind her FC's house in Shirogane.
#wolqotd #LifeandTimesofTali

Well given when I first created her she was a 4th Edition DnD Eladrin and they only had three eye colors and pale hair. So I went with the classic blonde hair, blue eyes. She's kept the color combo to this day.
#wolqotd #LifeandTimesofTali

Ceruledge!
#wolqotd #LifeandTimesofTali

Talaani's team reflects quite a bit of her personality, job specialization and just a bit of her luck. Bit of headcanon is that she got her Charcadet alongside Chaland's and ended up separately evolving their partners into the opposite!
#wolqotd #LifeandTimesofTali #pokemon

Talaani will tell people it's Ala Ganna, but she was raised at the base of the Ziggurat in the Peaks. Her clan has been keepers and protectors of the sacred site for nearly 1,000 years! #wolqotd #LifeandTimesofTali

'Tis peak m'lord~! Talaani's sense of fashion is quite strong despite having grown up with very limited options due to living very rural. She favors reds and royal purples as the base color of a design.
#OCQOTD #wolqotd #LifeandTimesofTali #TaliShots

So I knew she'd be a sighthound of some kind, but a little research turned up an old breed from Kazakhstan called the Kazakh Tazy and its temperament fits her to a tee, aloof to strangers but playful with family. And then there's this pic... It's just Talaani!
#wolqotd #LifeandTimesofTali

Talaani can play the violin/fiddle, lute, and flute; though her favorite is the fiddle.

She wants to learn how to play the trumpet and piccolo at some point.
#wolqotd #LifeandTimesofTali

She loves spicy food. Hannish curries are a favorite of hers! Zero's curry though... she needed two lassi to make it through and even then she was sweating at the end.
#wolqotd #LifeandTimesofTali

She wouldn't admit it herself, but earnest, golden retriever personality is one of the common denominator. A really nice smile is another one.

*looking at both OC and NPC ships* Yeah~
#wolqotd #LifeandTimesofTali

I love seeking out new friends and seeing just how our OCs might interact. From new friendships to rivalries to blossoming romance, I love it all! It helps not only me but the fellow creator flesh out their character and their world just a bit more!
#ocqotd #wolqotd #LifeandTimesofTali

*tilts head in confusion* "Taxes? Is that what its called when I pay my dues to the Adventurer's Guild?"
⬆️Woman who has never had to pay actual taxes in her damn life
#wolqotd #LifeandTimesofTali

When Talaani is in a serious relationship and is forced to be away from their love for anything over a month, she takes every measure to lessen the lovesickness though its usually only half successful.
Girl is calling via long range linkpearl, every night.
#wolqotd #LifeandTimesofTali

If we're going off of classic starters then she'd pick Rowlet as her starter. If I was given free reign then I'd have her picking a Charcadet.

A mural of pictures used to describe Talaani if she were these objects and concepts. A picture of Talaani sits at the center of the mural. Top Left corner is Flower and is a Damask Rose. Top Right corner is Animal and is a Secretary Bird. Middle Left is Weather and its a picture of a thunderstorm. Middle Right is Place and it's an image of the Anatolian Plateau with all of its vibrant banding along it jagged peaks. Bottom Left is Color and its a color swatch from Pantone listing a color called Clover and is reminiscent of the primary color of the Ala Mhigan flag. Next over is Food and its a very appetizing plate of a dish called Sulu Köfte which is a Turkish stew. The next category is Beverage and its an Arak Mule, a twist on the well-known Moscow Mule but with the Lebanese Arak liquor used instead. Bottom Right is Object and its a Damascus Chef's Knife with a beautiful blue resin and wood handle.

A friend of mine shared a twitter post with a fill in the blank promp and it sent me on a bit of a deep dive into Levant regions, culture, and history given that Gyr Abania is heavily based on Turkey, Lebanon, and the surrounding countries. Template below⬇️

Talaani puts quite some effort into how she looks. The most effort she puts in is for her hair and skin, making sure to take excellent care of it. She usually keeps her makeup light and minimal so its easy to apply every day.
#wolqotd #LifeandTimesofTali

It boils down to blonde hair up, deep blue eyes, tattoo on her left cheek, red clothes and you've got the basis for Talaani. If I did one of those color stripe stacks it'd be blonde, blue, peach, red and black top to bottom.
