Albeara "Albee" Dawn is a star party member in the Class Dismissed campaign played by Carly Monardo. She is a faun who idolizes Kreedis, The Hero Monk of the four elements. She becomes a monk wishing to follow in his footsteps. Albee has 12 siblings (or litter mates) and counting and has a massive crush on Bellow.
Albee attempts to be brave and heroic in everything she does, though she has trouble maintaining this at times. This can make her oblivious or brash, and while she will often pursue gentler methods with others, she is usually the first to lash out when they are threatened. She has been described as a bully.
Appearance[]
Albee is a fawn, which gives her a strong set of hooved feet. She keeps her auburn hair in a sporty braid. She has a wide forehead, little antlers, and white dappled freckles like a deer. She frequently wears a tunic.
Relationships[]
Albee has a massive crush on Bellow that she tries to keep secret. She maintains her crush on him, but will sometimes admonish herself for this when Bellow behaves especially stupid. She often gets nosebleeds when she is feeling particularly attracted to Bellow. They maintain a friendly relationship, even after she is forced to confess her crush (which Bellow admits to suspecting after the countless hints). They begin slowly approaching the relationship, and while genuinely affectionate it quickly becomes more complicated.
She is best friends with Cordelia and fellow sister of Mothra Tau Delta. The two often confide in each other and will advise each other on their love lives while calling "dibs" to avoid stepping on each other's toes with love interests. Cordelia has been to Albee's house before and met her family. Their relationship only grows closer over their journey as they both show they are willing to risk their lives for one another. Around the same time that Bellow agrees to try a relationship with Albee, Cordelia realizes her own romantic love for Albee.
Albee considers Stirfry to be a friend but is often the first to become irritated with him. Stirfry is very aware of her crush on Bellow and will sometimes encourage or tease her about it. Albee often turns to him for help with dirtier or sneakier jobs, such as helping her prepare to be willing to kill someone when the need arises.
She and Frederick de Bonesby are not especially close, but they remain helpful and even protective of each other after their travels together. They respect one another, and Frederick is one of the few people to refer to her by her full name Albeara. Albee will often act shocked by some of his more amoral decisions, trying to steer him towards kinder actions when she can. She still shows concern for him, and she has been pointed out as the only teammate who asks about him when he goes missing.
She is very disenchanted when she actually meets Kreedis in Mountaintop. Much of the episode revolves around her coming to terms with herself, her hero worship, and her struggles with being a monk. While this does not give her any real sense of peace, it seems to start her towards her own path to monkhood as Kreedis discourages her from following in his (or anyone's) footsteps. It is around this time that she begins to take levels in Barbarian.
Albee maintains a very close relationship with her family. Even with such a large family, she cares deeply about all of her parents and siblings.
