Daemon Meme

[awanderingbard]

Combining my two favourite things: character development memes and daemons. Thought it might jump start my word fairies.

Give me the name of a character and I'll tell you the following about their daemon:

Animal:
Name:
Nickname:
Major Personality Traits:
How he/she sleeps:
How he/she travels with his/her human:
What he/she does when his/her human is at rest:
Favourite forms before he/she settled:
What his/her voice sounds like:

I can probably come up with a daemon if it's for a character I haven't yet given one to. Feel free to ask for more than one character.

Animal: Beaver
Name: Tannarak (Inuit word meaning 'grandaughter of the tundra')
Nickname: Tan
Major Personality Traits: Tan is a forthright daemon, with a great sense of justice, and is quick to give an opinion when something happens that she feels to be 'wrong'. She's very nervous of the city, and wishes even more than Fraser that they could go home, though she does dearly love the friends Fraser has made. She and Dief are super best buddies, and Fraser often has to correct which one is the daemon and which the pet (Americans seem surprisingly willing to assume that a Canadian might have a pet beaver). She can be a bit stuffy, and often misses the point, but is very kind-hearted, and will always do her best to help out.
How he/she sleeps: Tan usually lies parallel to Fraser, with her paws pillowed under her head. Sometimes she puts her tail under Fraser's arm if it's cold.
How he/she travels with his/her human: If Fraser is just walking around, she's content to waddle, but since he often is running and jumping off of things, he's very good about sticking her under his arm so she can keep up.
What he/she does when his/her human is at rest: Fraser is not very often at rest, but when he does decide to sit down, she usually sits on his feet. She has a bad habit of chewing or licking things not appropriate to chew or lick.
Favourite forms before he/she settled: Tan was most often a fisher when she was little, but she also liked to be a seal, or a caribou. She's slightly disappointed she didn't end up being something a little more fierce.
What his/her voice sounds like: Tan has very proper diction, though her Canadian accent is a bit stronger than Fraser's. Her voice is quite deep, and she's very deadpan, though it's hard to tell if she's serious or just pretending to be.

I love that her name is Inuit. And that she's often mistaken as a pet instead of his daemon. I love this headcanon you've built for her and Ben, I can totally see it.

Thank you! It was fun. I feel I should say, for accuracy's sake, that the original spelling is Tanaraq. Inuit language spellings are a bit complicated to English eyes. :-)
