This character came out of a conversation involving a list someone had compiled online about things GMs had said to players in response to stupid questions. One of those was "No, you can't use your paladin immunity to disease to sleep around with no consequence." And one of us pointed out that there were definitely some gods where that wouldn't just be allowed, but would be encouraged to do so. Especially now that paladins are no longer limited to the Arthurian Christian knight model.

Then Volo's Guide to Monsters came out including 5e stats for the Yuanti Pureblood. I think it is fairly obvious that I like playing snake or other reptilian themed characters. You don't have to look far through my gallery to see that. In addition I find the Faerun minor goddess Sharess to be very interesting (partially because she used to be the Egyptian goddess Bast). I've referred to her as the Chaotic Good goddess of BDSM, but her purview is pleasure and hedonism in general even if she does have an interest in "the darker side of pleasure". A better explanation is that she's the divine equivalent of a soldier coming off a war and opening a strip joint or brothel.

As such, I made her a Paladin of the Oaths of Ancients since part of that oath is vowing to encourage joy and pleasure. She came out a bit more muscular than I originally thought, but that's perfectly fine. This is, of course, her dressed for battle rather than festhall activity. Her weapons are a short sword and a rapier. The rapier is based a bit on a random magic item I came up with which was a rapier meant to battle gnolls and other servants of the demon lord that created them. A lot of them were made during a siege and they were rushed to completion so they lacked the hand guard among other things.
