Empress Elizabeth of Austria with Loosened Hair, Franz Xaver Winterhalter, 1865

Wies, Landkreis Weilheim-Schongau, Bavaria “I have set my rainbow in the clouds, and it will be the sign of the covenant between me and the earth. Whenever I bring clouds over the earth and the rainbow appears in the clouds, I will remember my covenant between me and you and all living creatures of every kind. Never again will the waters become a flood to destroy all life. Whenever the rainbow appears in the clouds, I will see it and remember the everlasting covenant between God and all living creatures of every kind on the earth” (Genesis 9:13-16). - The Bible

bav was a goldsmith who specialized in earrings and other small shiny ornaments! she had a little shop in baldur's gate where she made all kinds of jewelry and a more charismatic friend sold them - now, post-tadpole and a long way from home, bav still dabbles in making accessories, both for herself and her newfound friends :)

Whoaaa gaunt and elly dancing the ländler? More likely than you think!

Leonhard

Bavarian G5/5 of the Königliche Bayerische Staatseisenbahn, loosley translated that means royal bavarian state railway. Leonhard has the Nummer 5834 and his class was the strongest of his type in Bavaria.

(Yes I know its in German, just listing the eccentials) This class was built to tackle grades in northern Bavaria and was at the time considered the height of Bavarian locomotive engineering. No G5/5s exist to this day and images are rare as well. I found a video where there is one shown for a few seconds. There is a model from Märklin that exists ( I want it).

Here are some of the ones he is closest to. His grandfather Hartmut with a severe case of "Schadenfreude". His cousin Erika who Was once considered a world record holder for speed in 1907 (I think). His daughter Hedwig a smol baby class 45. Andreas Stark, his Fireman and James! Who he actually finds quite charming and he enjoys his company.

Now to catch a wolpertinger one must either salt its tail or perform the aptly named "sack, stick, spade" method.

The "sack, stick, spade" method consists of propping open a sack with a spade, lighting a candle inside as a lure, and finally removing the spade and trapping it after it has gone inside.
