Public Character of the Month - August 2026 - Winner!

[WelshPsych]

Hey everyone!
​

All the nominations were great this month and the race was pretty close! Sorry for the delay in announcing the winner, the joys of suffering some issues irl delaying me.

However I would love to announce that our August winner for Character of the Month is:

Sophelia Ardemark !!!

Here is your flair/sig:

​

Here are the questions that you can answer in your own time:

Question: what gave you the idea for your character? Does the art or the personality come first?

My question: What does your character think will happen to them after they die? Are they very religious?

After all the years you've spent writing your character, is there anything about the character, their development, or story that you would go back and change if you could?

My question: What does the future hold for the character? Will they rise high in Mahporeem? Will they withdraw and live some chill life off of war and duty?

Awww, thanks ALL! This is delightfully unexpected. This has been such a great community to return to. Have loved seeing old writers on the board and interacting with new ones. Thanks for all the fun stories, character development, and journeys. Excited for more!

Thanks The Madclaw for the nom. For your question: The idea for the char started from wanting a tie-in to an existing noble house on THR Missed playing a healer and a classic 'good' char (with some nuances) and after chatting with Helios Ardemark , Sophelia was born. Art vs personality is a bit of chicken or the egg. Personality first but art tied it all together and ignited the spark.

Ronhar Tane : Great question. She probably thinks her energy will return to the force but I, as a writer, haven't explored that too much and it would be fun to do so. Need to calculate on it a bit more. And no, she is not the religious type.

Rin Taal : She just started this year but was def inspired by some other parts and pieces of old characters I used to write, way back. No regrets or changes right now!

Aurelian of Vandemar : I was today years old when I learned what Mahporeem is. The future for this girl depends on her interactions with characters in future threads. I hold things loosely. She is not retiring anytime soon. Maybe more traumas will change that, though. xD
