7, What circumstances led to your Tav becoming their Class/Subclass?
(Also. After seeing your AWESOME art, is your Tav always close to naked? Is he a nudist? I support him but I am So Curious haha)
thank you so much!! Monthas had a lot of anger he repressed growing up. He wasn’t allowed to show any emotion at all. His mother was the type to scream at him if he showed any sign of negative emotion because she saw it as a personal slight at her parenting. She was a very “I’ll give you something to cry about” or “how dare you be sad when I give you everything” kind of mother. He wasn’t allowed to be angry so it just bubbled deep inside of him. Until it all exploded on the night he killed her. When he went on his own he was just this little ball of rage. Over time he realized he kinda hated being so angry and mean. He didn’t want to be bitter and he didn’t like the way he felt after a confrontation. He shifted to a more healthy way of getting it out through combat and shifting his focus into battle rage to protect people instead of lashing out at strangers. Thus barbarian. As for the almost nude thing. Well. He’s not a nudist we wears clothes most of the time it’s just that Monthas has a lot of sensory issues and gets very overstimulated by clothes. His camp clothes is just his underwear. It’s just how he de-stimulizes himself.

I jumped out of my bed to ask
It's about godhood, small text might be a spoiler, be careful.
I heard that Gale can become a God as well as turn his s/o into one. Wiki says he chose his area of influence. Does his s/o choose as well? What is it? If doesn't
the question is
What gods would be bg3 characters, including your Tav/Durge? Divine patrons of what they could become if given a choice?
Also if someone already made a post with such question, throw a link at me. I'm just genuinely curious.

I've been working on making an OC for Baldur's Gate 3. Whilst doing so I've been looking at a LOT of lists with character development questions. I decided to make a document where I compiled and categorized them.
The questions can work for other Original Characters as well! DnD is something that comes to mind :D
You can also just use it as a base for your regular OCs and ignore the more BG3/DnD oriented questions!! Hope this is helpful to anyone :]

Zbearbear on reddit had a really interesting question, so I thought it deserved some attention here as well.

Ny'fein Durs'rend'aen as a companion (aka: what if you could recruit redemption durge?)
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
Baldur's Gate 3 Companion! Tav Ask List
What if your Tav was a recruitable companion, instead of the main character?  (contains major spoilers for the game, and for some dark urge runs as well)
General
Where can your Tav be recruited?  Are they first encountered on the Nautiloid, or in the Nautiloid crash region?  Or are they not recruitable until a later act?
Ny'fein would be met on the Nautiloid, and then probably again immediately between Astarion and Gale. If for some reason you miss him there, you'll find him held captive by Kressa at moonrise.
Do the other companions have special comments or reactions upon recruiting your Tav?
Astarion: A Drow Bard? How novel. Though I wonder....Do you think he might know Drizzt?
Lae'zel: If we must.
Karlach: Do you think he knows Drizzt? Is it...would it be weird if I asked?
Wyll: He looks familiar but I don't know why. I'm sure he'll be a fine addition to our party.
Gale: I find bards quite fascinating, you know. Do you think he'd be okay answering some questions? Wait, why are Karlach and Astarion crowding around him?
Does your Tav have any comments or advice when you recruit other companions? 
Persuasion roll of 80 to keep him on the team if you recruit Minthara. As a male drow, he wants nothing to do with her.
What sort of general actions raise or lower their approval?
Ny'fein is a redemption durge, so while I'm reasonably certain his alignment pre-tadpole is true evil, post tad-pole he's chaotic neutral. He likes when you help people, he likes a good joke, and he's not going to enjoy it if you're cruel for no reason.
Are there any instances where your Tav can permanently leave the party, depending on player character actions?
Recruiting Minthara, regardless of circumstance. Endangering children.
Do they have any secrets that can be revealed?  What are the prerequisites for this secret coming to light?
Ny'fein is made of secrets, since he's a bhaalspawn with a memory disorder. The first hints of something will happen at the goblin camp, when the three chosen look familiar even in silhouette.
Do they have their own personal quest that spans the course of the game?  Can it take different branching paths depending on the choices the Player Character makes?
"Healing wounds": origin durge questlines about putting things to rights and regaining memories, and taking down the chosen.
What do they say when the Player Character asks them to stay in camp?  How about when the Player Character asks them to come adventuring again?
When asked to stay in camp, he would pull out his violin and simply start playing a dirge. When asked to go adventuring, he'd say "ever by your side" if romanced or "as you wish" if good approval. If approval is low, he'd literally just say "fine."
Does your Tav have any escalating conflicts with one of the other companions, like Lae’zel and Shadowheart’s knife-fight?
He's truly suspicious of Shadowheart, and while he doesn't dislike her, she puts him ill at ease.
Are there any unique NPCs associated with your Tav that can show up during the course of the game?
Quill Grootslang, a dragonborn bard who comes to camp after you meet Alfira. Sceleritas Fel. Sarevok.
Are there any moments in the game that trigger unique dialogue for your character? (Like Gale’s anecdote about the barfight after you save the goblin prisoner) 
He keeps most of those as inside thoughts, but once you've made it to moonrise his memory starts to come back and he talks a lot more. If you recruit him at moonrise, once you get to the city, he talks a LOT. There will be a special cut scene with Gortash and a separate one with Orin.
Story Specific
How does your Tav advise the player character when it comes to the Dream Visitor?
Ny'fein doesn't trust them but since they offered help with his memory issues, he's intrigued.
How do they advise the player character on Raphael?
"He looked at me like I was food, it made me uncomfortable" "I think we should avoid him" "My claws are sharper" "I feel like I've met him before"
How do they react to Astarion biting the Player Character?
"....how did you NOT realize he was a vampire. Wait, did NONE of you know? Seriously??". No approval loss or gain, but he's def a little jealous. Of both of you.
How do they react to the Player Character letting Abdirak whip them?
If he, Shadowheart, and Astarion are with you during the Abdirak scene, expect the banter to be sexually charged and absolutely inappropriate. He's _way_ too into it.
How do they react to the Player Character taking their first tadpole power?
Very, very suspicious. No approval loss or gain, but they won't join Tav in consumption. Roll of 100 needed to convince them to consume tadpoles.
Will they stay with the Player Character regardless of siding with the goblins or the Tieflings, or is it possible for them to leave the party permanently?
if Tav sides with the goblins, they leave. If this happens, you'll find them dead in Orin's chambers just like you would find durge if they hadn't joined the party at all.
What can they be found doing at the tiefling/goblin party?
Ny'fein is a bard, so he'll be playing music at least a little bit. Other than that if he isn't romanced, he's flirting his head off with Rolan and Halsin, maybe even Zevlor.
Do they have comments on who the Player Character chooses to spend the night with? 
only in so far as "Who are you going for so I don't go for them as well" and "I want to hear about it tomorrow" before sauntering off to his own conquest.
Do they have unique dialogue if the Player Character lets them die when they steal the Blood of Lathander?
Seething anger. You will lose approval. He will pout.
How do they react if the PC licks the dead spider in the Gauntlet of Shar?
He would sigh, heavily, and say "I'm putting that in the song, you know".
What do they say if the PC tries to force them to go up on stage with Dribbles the Clown?
"I cannot express how much I detest you at this moment." "This isn't my scene" "Can't Astarion do it?"
Is it possible for your Tav to be kidnapped and replaced by Orin?  How is Orin's deception revealed?  How do they react to the PC rescuing them in the Temple of Bhaal?
Since they're Durge, I'm inclined to think Orin would vastly prefer to kidnap them over the other companions. I think the deception would be revealed by "Ny'fein" trying to kill whomever they have the most party banter with, and the companions thinking they've given into the urge. When Tav gets to the temple, they have to use "Help" to free Ny'fein after the fight with Orin starts. From there, Ny'fein becomes the only playable combat character, forcing Tav from the fight and into the "sanctuary" area.
How do they react to the PC either allowing Astarion to ascend or convincing him to spare the 7000 spawn?
Ny'fein gets it either way, but since he's fighting so hard against his Urge, he'd be disappointed his friends succumbed to their desire for power.
How does Tav react to the PC becoming a mind flayer?  Can they offer to become one themselves?  Does their reaction change if they’re romanced? 
Ny'fein cannot offer to become the mindflayer, and if the player asks them to, their approval drops and Ny'fein will explain he only just got his soul, he doesn't want to lose it. Ny'fein will support Tav's choice but will not stay with them, romantically, if they become a mindflayer.
How do they react when the Dark Urge first reveals their amnesia and murderous thoughts to them?
not answering since this would actually be Tav reacting to them.
How do they react to the Dark Urge killing Alfira?
skipping this one as well since they are the durge.
If romanced, how do they react to the Dark Urge trying to kill them in Act 2?
see above.
Romance
Is your Tav a romanceable character?  Are there any specific requirements to romancing them?
Ny'fein is romanceable. Tav would have to be supportive of them about their memory loss and trying to fight their dark urge.
Does your Tav need to be flirted with to start the romance, or will they approach the PC themselves if approval is high enough?
They'd approach Tav if the approval is high enough, and they'd be very forward about it. If recruited at moonrise, their romance moves really fast and they're basically seducing Tav outright.
Are they a polyamorous or a monogamous option?
Poly! Theyr'e okay mono, but Ny'fein would really enjoy having multiple lovers, and they would support Tav exploring their emotions and sexuality with others as well.
Do they have a special romance scene at the tiefling/goblin party?
Ny'fein's tent is bigger on the inside and Tav discovers this during the Tiefling party. They also discover Ny'fein is handy with a silence spell. Goofy, explicit scene.
Does the romance have different branching paths, or just one route to take?
The romance can develop in different ways depending on how the player interacts with Ny'fein, and I feel like there's a happy romance ending and a sad one.
How do they react to the player character breaking up with them, or choosing another character over them?
A little spiteful and they certainly carry a grudge about it. Ny'fein immediately starts sleeping around, loudly, just to irritate Tav.
What questions can Zethino ask the PC about Tav in the Love Test? 
What does he desire most? What does he wish to destroy, more than anything? When do they feel most themselves?
If they’re poly, do they have a reaction to the PC engaging in a relationship with Halsin?
Raised eyebrow, digging through their pouch, handing over a healing potion, a bottle of silver swirling oil that glitters, and a bottle that feels cold. "Trust me, you'll...you'll need these". They would want to participate after Tav x Halsin settle into their relationship.
How do they react if the PC has sex with Mizora? The Emperor?  Haarlep?
Utter indifference. Their body, their choice. Though, they do worry a little about Tav after Haarlep.
Will they join in with the PC and the Drow Twins, or no?
They absolutely would, enthusiastically. 
What are Tav’s plans for the future?  Do they propose to the PC, or is marriage not something they’re interested in?
A nice quiet life, somewhere nice that's a city without a bhaalist presence. They'd settle down with their polycule or Tav, or just go off on their own. Ny'fein would likely open a small bardic school.
Free space! Share anything from your companion!Tav au!
-Ny'fein is OLD. like, really old. But since he's bhaalspawn, he doesn't age properly on top of being notoriously slow-to-age-drow. -If Tav is evil, Ny'fein really struggles to stay in the party and if Tav wants to keep them it's constant persuasion rolls. -In act 2, if Kressa has Ny'fein, when you find him, he's is in the middle of being experimented on and uses the tadpole to call out to you. He compels you to rescue him and apologizes for it after. -I very much believe that if they're recruited at moonrise, they have an accelerated romance path with Tav, and are particularly inclined to romance Tav if Tav is with Astarion/Astarion and Halsin -I think that the moment he sees Gortash, there's an oddly intimate cut scene between Gortash and Ny'fein, with everyone kinda...lookin' on awkwardly. I think Karlach would be LIVID and need convincing to stay in the party after Ny'fein's past is revealed, especially because I HC Ny'fein and Gortash as former lovers. -I don't think Ny'fein ever met or knew Karlach, but I think Karlach wouldn't care too much about that. -Tav can kick Ny'fein out after learning who they are, and Ny'fein will still show up as a support character at the elder brain as long as Orin has already been handled. -As for fighting Orin, I feel like having Ny'fein in party means Orin has to be handled shortly after taking the rooms at the elfsong. It would be a timed thing and if it isn't handled, Ny'fein dies. -Sarevok would give Tav additional information and a map to save Ny'fein/take down Orin. -Orin will have definitely tortured Ny'fein. When you arrive at the temple, Ny'fein is very battered and bloodied.

3, 5, and 6 for church please. On the tav meme
3. Did your Tav receive any formal or informal education? If yes, how well did they learn? If no, why not?
(I liked this question so much that I had to draw it.)
Tumblr media
The Mother raised Church within the same walls as millenniums-worth of religious and arcane texts. Along with keeping him alive, she kept him entertained and learning by teaching him magic and tutoring him through these tomes and scrolls. The little tiefling spent his childhood climbing all over the rafters of the church and the towering shelves of the library, slowly making his way through its contents over the younger years of life. While his knowledge of everything was antiquated as a result, it still was in-depth.
After making his first escape, an informal education began when he began to spend time in the village of Tarrin’s Hearth. His friends and the more sympathetic adults taught him about the reality of the world: social norms, how to defend himself physically and verbally, as well as show affection. He could read and speak multiple languages, recite ancient texts from memory, and do math. But he didn’t know things like how to realistically diffuse tense social situations, or that he couldn’t stay out in the sun without getting burned, for instance.
When Church was fourteen years old, after a harrowing fight he made the pact with his mother that allowed him to leave her building for good. He stayed in the village for a couple more years, and went to the same school as his friends more for the social experience than any particular need to learn.
His real education happened when he left the village at age 16. He headed to Waterdeep where he walked up to the adventurers’ guild looking for work. He began to learn through apprenticeships and mentorships as a squire of sorts to various guild members.
5. Did your Tav have any formal or informal employment? If yes, what was their job? If no, how did they make ends meet? How did they feel about it?
From age 16 onward, Church’s employment was primarily at the adventurers’ guild. While he eventually became a squire to some of his mentors, in between adventures he worked as the apprentice archivist/arcanist within the guild’s library. But, for the most part, he took jobs as the youngest member of the guild.
6. What is your Tav’s favourite childhood memory?
(Perhaps not the favorite, but a favorite…)
The third time Church escaped, the world was dark — no stars in sight. The ground crunched and crumbled as he walked, and it almost glowed. The grassy plains and hills were all blanketed in white. Stinging pinpricks fell upon the tiefling’s face, which still grinned up at the bizarre, feathery flakes floating down from the dark sky.
But the ground stung underfoot as Church made his journey back to the village, and soon Church’s fingers began to hurt too. He objectively knew that snow was cold, but it always looked so soft in his books. He didn’t expect it to hurt.
Church puffed a cantrip of flame to warm himself, summoning the innate, infernal heat of his being to keep himself moving.
But eventually it stopped hurting. He actually felt even warmer than ever as he trudged through the deep snow. Eventually, he was in the woods, where the snow wasn’t as deep. He decided to take a break and curl up in a familiar hollow. It was just for a bit, he told himself. Just until sunrise when he could continue on to the village.
Church fell asleep.
And when he woke, he ached and burned.
“Mum!” a girl’s familiar voice cried. “He’s moving!”
“Oh thank the gods,” breathed the innkeeper. “You foolish boy. Can you hear me?”
Church nodded stiffly, eyes still closed.
“Can you see me? Can you see little Miri? Remember your friend Miri?”
Church opened his eyes, squinting up at the dark shapes above him, haloed in light. It took a while, but eventually his eyes focused upon the worried face of the innkeeper as her daughter — his friend Mairead — peered over her shoulder.
“…yes,” Church uttered weakly.
“Can you move your fingers and toes?”
He could. Kind of. It took some effort to get them to obey, but little by little his extremities twitched as the innkeeper hummed, pleased.
“Silly boy!” she scolded him, slumping back in her seat beside the bed. “What were you doing out in that blizzard?”
“…coming… back?” Church suggested, weakly.
“You couldn’t have waited for daylight at least?” the innkeeper admonished him. “Miri, the bowl.”
Mairead left and returned with a bowl and a spoon, regarding Church anxiously.
“Don’t die, Church Boy!” she beseeched him.
“He won’t die,” the innkeeper scoffed, massaging warmth into the boy’s feet through the thick quilt draped upon him. “He’s just thawing.”
She took the bowl from the girl and blew gently upon a spoonful of its contents.
“Drink,” she ordered him, holding the spoon up to his chapped lips.
Church drank, and his tongue ached as the hot soup warmed him from the inside out. He tasted chicken grease and root vegetables, uplifted by pepper corns, ginger and herbs.
It’s too salty, which, for him, makes it… wonderful.
Mother’s food is always perfectly seasoned. He’s never had a complaint about it — flavor-wise, at least. But ever since his first escape, he began to notice that whenever he ate her meals, he physically couldn’t bring himself to leave again. He could only sum up the power to leave when he had carefully hidden and disposed of the food, with the help of the rats. And even then, it was a double-edged sword. He’d be physically weak as he escaped, but at least he would make it outside.
Mairead took over for her mother and fed the boy another spoonful of soup. And then another, this time with solids. The chicken is chewy and the vegetables are mushy and over-boiled.
Mairead’s mother’s chicken soup was perfectly imperfect.
It tasted like freedom.
~~~~~~~~~~
Thanks @agent-jaselin for the ask!
Here’s the original question list by @raysoffrost, if anyone wants to ask anything else!

[ #tavqotd from twitter]
Your tav/durge is dead and one of their companions uses "Speak with Dead" to find out their last wish, what would it be?
Deoradhán: "Return me... to the forest.... Return me to him."
"Tell the stars. ...I tried to keep my word."
"Finally. The stars are at... peace."

So like let's say Astarion doesn't exist so we can avoid conflict (Cause Winnie is a jealous little wolf)........ Y'all think our Tavs could be friends? Maybe they could share some cheese? 🧀 Honestly if you just give Winnie cheese she'll probably follow you forever.

2, 16, 18, 23 for Fal?
2. Does he have any siblings? He does not! His mother and father had a whirlwind romance that resulted in him. His father died shortly before his birth, and his mother never could find it in her to remarry, considering how ill Falerin was. 16. What is his favorite childhood memory? Rainy days, believe it or not. Being cooped up inside was Fal's norm, so on days when it was expected, he felt a little less like he was missing out. Usually his mother would stay home with him and they would crochet together as she taught him her favorite songs. 18. What did he want to be when he grew up? A wizard. A very powerful wizard that would be able to fix his heart, get immeasurable wealth, and be famous throughout all of Faerun for his prowess. (You can see why he likes Gale so much.) 23. Dealer's Choice. Fal never had much by way of romance, or even crushes, before he went to the Feywild. He didn't interact much with other kids, and once he started on his apprenticeship, the only thing on his mind was becoming a powerful enough wizard to halt his illness. That said, he was a voracious reader, and when he was about 14, he found some silly harlequin romance featuring a vampire, and things awoke in him.
Astarion can never, ever, ever know. He'll never hear the end of it if he does.

I saw a #tavqotd from twitter that was like, what is your tav’s name and does their name have any meaning?
Tumblr media
His name is Monthas it’s not his birth name but it’s the one he chose. He has 6 older brothers all with the naming convention M-(something)-thas. A funny little thing his mother thought was cute. They all had that name style except him. He’s trans so when he transitioned and changed his name he picked one that fit in with his brothers. He hasn’t seen them in decades. He thinks maybe they’d be insulted if they found out he named himself after them. After what he did to their family.. but he still wanted to be close to them in a way.

hiiiiii for the tav asks!!
9. What was your Tav doing when they were taken by the mind flayers?
22. Has your Tav become particularly close to anyone romantically and/or platonically in their journey? If so, who, and what is the relationship like? If no, why not?
30. What are your Tav’s intentions/goals after the end of the game?
Omg hiiiiiiiiii rowanwrites!!!
Let’s do Fresca! Tav ask game here
9. What was your Tav doing when they were taken by the mind flayers?
Fresca was doing exactly what he shouldn’t have been doing - sneaking out to a bar to play Baldur’s Bones, drink, and maybe pick up a guy. He typically travels to the Blushing Mermaid via side alleys, always taking a different route if he can kept it. One minute he’s ducking into a narrow, dingy alley, the next he’s swallows in screams and the flurry of people running towards him. Then a sudden thud to his back, body ripping itself apart at the scenes as it shifts from one place to another in the blink of an eye.
22. Has your Tav become particularly close to anyone romantically and/or platonically in their journey? If so, who, and what is the relationship like? If no, why not?
Fresca has pursued no romantic interests out of sheer apathy and pickiness. Wyll is too young emotionally despite being the closest in age, and more importantly, Fresca isn’t interested in corrupting Wyll juuust enough to be romantically or sexually interesting. Gale is too needy, and Astarion is blatantly attempting to play him or eat him. Everyone else is a combination of too eager to please and terribly dull. I would say he gets along best with Minthara and Jaheira - they are both pragmatic and more world weary than the rest of the group.
30. What are your Tav's intentions/goals after the end of the game?
Fresca just wants to be left alone, but the call knows his address now and keeps grabbing him by the collar to go off on some new adventure every time he answers the door.
For real though, I believe he uses his new found fame (or infamy) to boost his painting career and keeps to himself when he’s not being dragged off somewhere dangerous and strange. He buys his own little apartment in a nicer neighborhood of the Lower City and takes joy in having something of his own for the first time ever.

Answering more questions from this Baldur's Gate 3 Tav Ask Game!
31. How does your Tav dress for different occasions, like very fancy situations? 
Okay, so I spent WAY too long looking for reference pictures for this. Envy typically wears form-fitting clothing, and they're the type of person who rarely wears sleeves if it's warm enough. As seen in most of my screenshots, they usually like very low-cut outfits with pretty detailing like embroidery.
Before all the adventuring, Envy usually didn't have a lot of money, so they bought or sewed for themselves a few eye-catching pieces of clothing that could be mixed and matched together with simpler pieces to make a stunning outfit. They particularly like brocade or embroidered corsets and vests, and tend to have a steampunk-ish vibe. If they're not supposed to draw too much attention or it's less formal of an occasion, they might wear something like this, with a leather underbust corset and a nicely tailored simple shirt. Slightly fancier events might find Envy in a brocade corset statement piece but otherwise fairly casual clothing. Especially fancy events would have Envy switch to a more elaborate vest like this and this, with the kind of beautiful trousers and shoes that one might find at Figaro Facemaker's (maybe purchased under disguise just in case Envy's recognized from their many pranks). If feeling more femme, Envy would want to wear similar tops/corsets but with a flowy, bustled skirt.
32. How did your Tav get their scars, if they have any? 
Envy has a scar down their lips from a bar fight several years prior to the game. They tend to mouth off at people who are rude to them so they've gotten into a lot of bar fights. During this particularly bar fight, Envy got cut by a broken bottle.
Envy also has several scars all over their body from various fights throughout his years living on the streets. They also have many scars that look like they should be nastier than they are - hastily healed while still fresh - made from knives and hot pokers.
Their worst scar is a line across their throat where it was slit. They obviously survived, but essentially lost their voice as a result. (They can still talk, but in a very hoarse and much quieter voice.)
33. What is your Tav’s relationship with their family? 
Envy no longer has a family. They lost their parents when they were six. What they remember of their parents holds a lot of warmth and kindness. Envy thinks their parents must have loved them very much.
34. What is your Tav’s opinion on nobility and authority? 
Fuck the nobility. Fuck authority. Anyone with a significant amount of power is doomed to be corrupted by it. The poor and the downtrodden owe nothing to people with power and privilege, given that they have done nothing to lift up the lower class after benefitting from their labor. (Envy's a socialist.)
35. How does your Tav react to wearing the Wavemother’s robe? How do they react to their partner wearing it?
Envy loves the Wavemother's robe. They think it's fun and sexy. It's more risqué than what they'd normally wear, but they feel beautiful and powerful in it.
When Astarion wears it, Envy turns speechless - which is pretty impressive because Envy loves to talk. They're putty in Astarion's hands.
36. What is your Tav’s favorite type of environment? Like in a tavern, a library, out in the wilderness, underground, etc.
Envy is most comfortable in urban areas, especially in taverns. They love excitement and music and movement. It also helps that there's plentiful food and booze there, which Envy loves to indulge in.
37. What would your Tav’s Zodiac sign be?
Envy is probably an Aries, like me. I'm not a very good Aries (though I do have those tendencies sometimes), but Envy is. They're brash and loud and will throw down for a fight if challenged - whether with words or swords. They're pretty easy going for the most part, but when they feel like they've been wronged, they can and will make a scene.
38. What is their favorite season?
Spring. They think there's something poetic about so much life coming from the desolation of winter.
39.  Where in the world does your Tav want to visit the most?
Waterdeep, maybe? Envy wants to learn more magic and play music for more famous venues, and they think they can accomplish that there, especially after hearing Gale go on about it. Just to visit, though. Baldur's Gate is a shitty city, but it's Envy's shitty city.
Already answered #40!
41. What animal best represents your Tav?
A Nightingale. It sings in the day and in the night, and is thought by many to have the most beautiful song.
42. What flower/tree/plant best represents your Tav?
Larkspur. It represents an open heart, levity, humor, strong love bonds, and dedication. It even comes in Envy-ish colors.
43. What does your Tav smell like? 
Usually clean with a hint of wood smoke. Envy also wears a jasmine perfume when they have access to their belongings in Baldur's Gate.
44. What song best represents your Tav?
youtube
I genuinely can't believe I haven't thought of this song sooner. It's honestly perfect. I already imagine Envy as sounding like Joey Batey, particularly when he's playing Jaskier and singing in The Amazing Devil. But "Whoreson Prison Blues" really exemplifies Envy's attitude towards life and hardship, as well as demonstrates the style of music they most love playing. I can absolutely picture them in a prison cell singing this with a couple of spoons.
45. What would be your Tav’s favorite music genre?
As stated above, The Amazing Devil (and Jaskier's Season 2 songs) shows the type of music Envy loves playing and listening to. The Amazing Devil classifies itself as alt-folk, so I guess that genre.
As far as contemporary music, besides alt-folk, Envy would really love showtunes for its range and theatricality.
