Did you notice who Dame Aylin looks like?
A bg3 senior writer. Even the hair style.

I think the writers project. You have to wonder where the characters come from. Was Dame Aylin part of the original forgotten realm lore or is she a bg3 creation.

She is a character BG3 made up (others include Raphael and Orpheus). The FR gods often have kids though so the idea of Selune having a demi-god kiddo is certainly in keeping with the setting lore.

Got a comparison pic?

A lot of the characters have some resemblance to their real world counter part.... I wonder if they used their notorious mo cap to mold these characters and their overall structure 🤔 it'll be impossible to say for sure now!

You're onto something here... she does look a bit like Senior Writer Stephen Rooney, now that I think about it...

Four. All have masculine sounding names, John, Gavin, Stephen and Kevin.

Found this at FR Wiki. She is not based on any previous lore. Aasimars exist in 5E lore, and Selune and other goddesses are known to have semi-divine children.

This was one tidbit I found interesting:
https://forgottenrealms.fandom.com/wiki/Aylin

[snip]
Aylin pronounced: /ˈaɪlɪn/ EYE-lin is a Turkish feminine name with the meaning "moon halo" or "the one that belongs to the moon".
[end]

Fitting for the daughter of Selene, errr, Selune.

Interesting. Does not surprise me. It looks like people add bg3 characters into the FR wiki as if they are part of the lore.
