i have so many feelings about giles's costuming and what it says about him every season -- i thought it only fitting to explore what giles and jenny's outfits would look like in a timeline where she's alive! so i drew one set of calendiles outfits for every season, plus an extra bonus post-series situation with some, uh, accessories.
some much more meta thoughts under the cut!
s3: i was thinking a lot here about giles's canonical stiffness & his retreat into the identity of Watcher to cope with jenny's death, and, well, if jenny's alive, i think his journey would be very much the inverse of that! so we have an outfit for him that, as in canon, is still clearly connected to what he was wearing in the prior seasons -- but rather than going harder on the tweed and the three-piece suits, he's let go of ties and jackets to step more towards a gently business casual kind of look. funny how that look is also much more huggable. makes you think.
jenny, meanwhile, has an outfit that very clearly showcases how giles has similarly influenced her! she's got a bespoke tweed jacket -- NOT a borrowed one, that is HERS -- and she's wearing slacks. still very stylishly jenny, just with a touch of giles's style integrated. she's the one wearing the tweed, though; she's feeling more confident in the relationship and much more willing to put down roots and take things seriously.
s4: not a lot to say here. giles and jenny are unemployed and being adorable about it. this is a timeline where giles's whole Depressed Purposeless Patriarch thing does a hard swerve into slightly manic empty-nester bliss with jenny, who is also a little bit off-balance without a job. this is also a timeline where the scoobies do not ever have to be reminded to knock.
s5: this is a season where giles and jenny are feeling very mutually comfy in their relationship and their clothing reflects that! very business power couple. they've each got signature colors that are reflected in their partner's accessory and the shared design on the skirt/tie. they are in harmony. also, giles has his earring in for this and all other subsequent drawings because after jenny finds out about it in s4 she never lets him take it off.
s6: anyone who's been following me for a little while has seen me talk about the calendiles almost-divorce in season six. this is that. jenny's got rainbow hair that's much shorter than usual because she is going a little manic after her husband jetted off to england. her outfit is very simple and black and miserable. 'nuff said.
s7: the obvious follow-up to the calendiles almost-divorce! giles and jenny are tentative, but they're also wearing each other's colors (that probably is giles's sweater, tbh) and jenny is wearing her little rose quartz necklace (all about healing!!!) so that's a good sign.
post-series is entirely just because i think it would be cute. it is worth mentioning though that 1) giles and jenny would have the world's most terrifying daughters & 2) giles is obviously the one who is wearing the baby.
#celiart#calendiles#rupert giles#jenny calendar#btvs#i could just post the art but i think everyone needs the meta.#like y'all need to know this is Costuming. this is Thought.#part of me wants to do more outfits at some point but i feel like i would literally never stop#so this is a good place to pause. for now

Roleplaying Races 15: Naiad
(art by Celiarts on DeviantArt)
I’ve said it before, but there are a handful of playable ancestries in first edition which got a blurb in a bestiary, but was never really touched again.
This is technically true of today’s entry: the naiad, but Paizo didn’t completely forget about them, as they show up again in 2E… admittedly with monster stats and only the lore drop of them occasionally becoming adventurers, but no ancestry stats… not yet, anyway.
In any case, naiads!
In Greek mythology, Naiad are a type of nymph, minor female deities that preside over aspects of the natural world, either independently or in the service of a more powerful divinity that rules more generally over the nymphs more specific focus.
In particular, naiads were the guardians of all bodies of freshwaters with the exception of full rivers, which had their own divinities. Anything from streams to fountains to ponds and lakes. Anywhere that fresh water could be found was their domain. They were known to be healers and protectors to those that honored them, but also dangerous and sometimes jealous beings, but that’s true of many Greek divinities.
In Pathfinder, naiads are a form of lesser nymph, able to bond with any body of water, rather than just being stuck with one on their moment of birth. As such, they tend to wander much further afield than other nymphs (with perhaps the exception of their more oceanic kin.)
That wanderlust and keen interest in protecting waterways and sources of fresh water means that many naiad take up the life of adventure to grow in strength and defeat evil that seeks to pollute and corrupt.
As fey creatures, naiad have a decidedly otherworldy appearance, appearing as humanoids seemingly made of water, and often adorning their forms in clothing made of living aquatic plants. Despite their appearance, however, they are very solid beings, and can come in a variety of genders despite the stereotypes of supposedly being only female.
As both fey and wanderers, Naiads don’t typically have societies of their own, though they probably pay homage to more powerful nymphs and to local fey courts when they’re in the area. Their wanderings also place them in greater contact with mortals too, so they likely have a better understanding of the mortal mindset as they interact with and integrate with their societies. They still are fey, however so their worldview no doubt clashes sometimes. They do, however, share a love of music and performance, as evidenced by the nature of their blessing when bestowed on a mortal.
Naiads are agile and charming, though their bodies are somewhat weak.
Their fey nature also gives them good night vision as well.
What’s more, being in tune with nature lets them befriend animals easier and understand the natural world.
True to their nature as nymphs, naiads can imbue a small token of favor, typically a lock of hair, which grants a minor blessing to creativity and mental integrity to the one it is gifted too. What’s more, the link between the naiad and their token lets them keep tabs on the well-being of the recipient, and they can rescind this blessing at any time.
The other iconic ability of theirs is the ability to bond with a freshwater body of water. As long as they are within a minute’s run from this water, the naiad draws protection from it, warding them against mundane and supernatural attack.
Charisma and dexterity are fun bonuses to have, making these fey surprisingly good swashbucklers. As fitting for their nature as minor muses, they also make good bards and skalds, to say nothing of their mastery of sorcery, the talents of a rogue/slayer, and so on. What’s more, their tokens and ability to draw protection from water makes defensive magic and water magic good themes to explore as well. Their only real weakness is the low strength, but that’s easy enough to surmount.
That does it for today, but we’ll be ending off with one more ancestry orphaned by the bestiary book it was introduced in!
