About Rhys McKay:
Greetings! I'll be playing Rhys McKay at Drachenfest this year. Rhys is a human who was "cursed" by a lesser drake in his home fey wild plane. Though this curse threatened Rhys' sanity, a chance meeting with a kindred fae sorceress, Tylwyth, and her assistance helped him take out this beast, stop the curse progression, and saved him from madness. The curse was halted, but not reversed and can sometimes be seen in Rhys' more impulsive decisions and, well, the occasional big, reptilian legs.
Through delving into divination magics in DFUS 2024 and further study, Rhys has recently unlocked a fascination, both with wind and weather-based magics as well as aeromancy or the practice of divination via atmoshperic conditions. He hopes to use the clarity that the Drachenlands offers to delve deeper into this newfound fascination!
Rhys and the sorceress Tylwyth now roam the fae world with their Weast Faerealm Trading Company, looking for coin and company. Mercenaries to some, helping hands to others, bane to only the worst! Their travels took them to Drachenfest 2022 and then again, with company, in 2024. They made so many good friends and had adventures they still recount to this day! They're very excited to make there way back through the mists to Drachenfest 2025 as members of the blue camp once again!
What I'm looking for at Drachenfest 2025:
Mostly just adventure and stories I can bring back home! If you've got a scheming plan to sneak into another camp or a fantastical ritual that needs help, wild shenanigans, or kind actions; Rhys is game for ALL of that! The only thing that'll stop me from joining you is if I'm already busy with another silly plan or if I'm eating. Food comes first!... Most of the times. I also absolutely ADORE theatric fighting. Actual boffer-style fighting I could take or leave, but being able to get real dramatic with it is just so much fun. Bonus points if it devolves into hand-to-hand! Finally, I'm really having fun playing with the more arcane, magic storytelling, so feel free to grab me if you need a spellslinger or some wavey magic hands!
Do:
Pitch your fun ideas at me
Roleplay HEAVY with me (I love improv)
Pick a (theatric) fight with me
Ask for a aeromancy divination reading
Rope me into some magic silliness
Don't:
Pull my tail
Be a buzzkill
Talk down to me, my friends, my party, or anyone really
