Plot bunny successfully rehomed! Thank you, dear writer, for giving this plot bunny the space to reach its potential~

Mephistopheles x tav/reader & Raphael x tav/reader (no incest, just shitty dad stealing his kids obsession)

The idea:

Mephistopheles finds out about how Tav/reader is the one to convince astarion to end the profane ascension ritual, basically stealing 7 THOUSAND souls from him... He's not pleased. So, he steals tav and keeps them as a "pet" (how that is done I'd up to you guys 👀) after the whole elderbrain thing is done because he's annoyed and it's an effective punishment.

Raphael is PISSED. Tav was supposed to be HIS. Not only does his dad take the crown, but ALSO his new obsession. So, he starts getting pissy and goes to Cania to demand tav be given to him instead. Of course, Mephistopheles looks at the Cambion with the most deadpan of deadpans and tells him to fuck off.

Tav, is honestly not happy to be with either devil, but they'd choose the overly ambitious Cambion over the SECOND MOST POWERFUL ARCHDEVIL anyday. So, they end up doing anything to assist Raphael in his endeavor of stealing them back.

Two endings (or your own interpretation!)

Raphael wins!!! He successfully steals back Tav. Leaving Mephistopheles proud enough to let it slide.

Or

Mephistopheles wins... and successfly coerces tav into a contract, (where they won't turn into a lemure...) and raphael is forced to watch while looking like a sad soggy seal :(

A Heist Bunny, With Tav As A Treasure?! Raphael/Tav vs Mephistopheles/Tav

An Arch-devilish suggestion with this plot bunny, pitting fiend against fiend, father against son, fighting over Tav (or a reader) as the prize? Between a Hell and a Hot Place (like rock and a hard place? No?...), an intrepid adventurer finds themselves in quite the tricky situation.

Plenty to toy with here with some pet play kink, a little dubcon flavour here with captivity and its implications if you're looking at the more kinky angle of the pet part, so do remember to add in your CWs if you take this one on.

There is more to examine here from Raphael's feelings too. It could be a simple case of a possession, or perhaps he cares a little more than he means to? Sometimes it takes losing a thing to realise how much one valued it, after all...

So, would you like to take on a battle of the fiends, with Tav/reader as their trophy? Adopt this devilish little bunny to see how deep into the hells the rabbithole might go...

[lostplotbunniesbg3]

Haarlep-as-Tav

That's basically the idea.

They are accidentally picked up in the hells, get somewhat nerfed by tadpole and now have to gallivant with tadfools. How well or how far it goes is up to the author.

An Incubunny Hops In To View! Haarlep is Tav?!

Well, here's a bunny we would love to adopt ourselves, had we the time and space to let it truly run free! This one has a lot of room to really spread into a full long-fic. How would our darling incubus react to being thrust into an adventure of this scale? What would they do with their strength reduced and powers stripped right back to barely a thing? How will people react to seeing a half-naked devil wandering the landscape, or will they simply disguise themselves as long as they can?

Ohhh hells here we go the bunny is running faster - would Haarlep suffer the same hunger issues as Gale and Astarion, but in their own way? An incubus feeds on sex, after all, so...well...that would require partners...

Then...what of Raphael? What will he say when he sees his incubus running about the landscape with a bunch of strangers infected with mindflayer tadpoles? Will he keep their secret if they're in disguise, or will he demand that they come home to Avernus where they belong?

There really is so much to play with in Haarlep's personality, story, and how they interact with others. They'll have to learn to play nice if they want allies, and even nicer if they wish to feed from their companions. Perhaps the journey might change them, much as it changes all of the Origins in one way or another depending on your decisions.

Please, someone adopt this bunny quickly, it's chewing through all of my wires and I really want to follow it!

Gale x Rolan

Mystra is looking for a new chosen and has her eyes on Rolan. Gale experiences all emotions at once and eventually tries to prevent what happened to him from happening again. Rolan thinks Gale is just jealous. They eventually get together as an insufferable wizard couple, but first there's a lot of miscommunication and angst

A Chosen Bunny Hops In Gale/Rolan

Mystra, when we get our hands on you Mystra...

The potential in this one runs deep, the undercurrents of angst in Gale's emotions, and his genuine desire to help, clashing with Rolan's naturally haughty and self-confident nature. There's a real push and pull to be had between Rolan insisting that it's different, that he knows better, that he certainly won't make the same mistakes that Gale made...all the while Gale can only watch on helplessly at seeing the mirror of his own past walking straight down the same path. And some part of Gale will know, too, that trying to talk Rolan out of it too much might only increase the denial and insistence that it's fine...

Thus eventually we reach our hurt/comfort, Gale helping Rolan through recovery, freeing him from the last of Mystra's grasp...and teaching him once more how the physical can be far more pleasant than the metaphysical, if you wish to lean on the smuttier side too!

Is anyone ready to take this angsty and soft plot bunny through the fields of your words to the conclusion of this story?

[lostplotbunniesbg3]

* Elminster/Volo

* Allusions to a relationship between these two are scattered throughout the game text. It’s interesting, and there’s in world fanfic about their bedroom activities 👀 I would love to see this expanded upon. They are Mystra’s chosen, two Very different wizards.

* NSFW

* Rivals to rivals with benefits and stern criticisms, also definitely some monster fucking…that one is actually canon, letters and sendings for long distance communication

* No bathroom play

* Looong 👀 preferably

* Serious/comedy? Both; they are literally both, and share aspects of both

* I mean…if I were doing this, it’d be a series. The first work would be about however they met. The next would be exchanged letters sharing their adventures and all else, broken up by intense meetings of numerous flavors. They’re both interesting highly intelligent men; there’s practically endless material. There’d be a focus on Mystra’s (arguably largely negative) impact on their lives, and their very different approaches to those lives. The last would be however their story ends 🤷‍♀️ maybe throw in one covering the games events, but that could easily still be mostly letters (maybe they also show up for an after party with Withers)

* Expand away 👀 🤷‍♀️ there’s literally nothing for these two on AO3, and I can’t write this myself; I’m already doing that, and the research for this one would be Extensive. This is a bunny for a true sage of DnD lore

* A conversation in @tavyliasin’s discord about the lore between them

As payment, my favorite piece of Elminster fanart

Please someone adopt my bunny, and claim this rare pair 🙏✨

A Rare and Magical Bunny! Volo x Elminster

This bunny is already well developed and has plenty of ideas to play with - how might you wish to take it further? Rare pairs are often a lot of fun - and you're filling a niche that nobody has yet managed to create! While the popular pairings are delicious, these unwritten ideas can be a delicacy that your readers didn't know they wanted - and you will be the first one to make it happen!

It is surprising nobody has yet written of Mystra's chosen, especially given the long and strange history between them. There's a lot of lore to really dig into, and pull on every last bit of that history to create something deep and engaging, with levity and seriousness, smut and heart. Will anyone take on the challenge of an unwritten pairing?

Wyllstarion lovers to enemies. (Ascended Astarion, character death and angst)

Wyll and Astarion got together during the events of the game but the team couldn't stop Astarion from ascending. Wyll held out hope for a bit but quickly realised that this new Astarion is evil and it cannot go on. As he inadvertently helped with the ritual, Wyll blames himself and swears to hunt Astarion down and slay him.

Post-game, heaps of angst and tragedy, monster hunting, Astarion using memories of their relationship against Wyll, Wyll-centric, one or both of them die in the end.

A Darker Bunny Wyll/Astarion Lovers to Enemies

This is a deliciously exciting plot bunny for lovers of angst, dead dove, and a real deep dive into the flaws of both characters. With Wyll, you have the hope alongside how he is taking responsibility upon himself potentially unnecessarily. From Astarion's side, there's the loss of his sense of self to the madness that power brings and the necessity of cutting off his emotions to live with the mass murder of souls in the ritual. The ending is interesting too, and there might be room to explore some regret from Astarion regardless which survives - perhaps Astarion is the one to kill Wyll, and in the final moments realises just what he has done, who he has lost, and that there can never again be a light in his life. Or maybe Wyll is the survivor, and in his own last moments Astarion thanks him for ending the torment of a hollow eternity that awaited him (see the Cazador mind-reading scene for more on that one, how he internally regrets it and longs to die, even as he fights tooth and nail to win and live). Then you have more guilt burdening Wyll's heroic heart, knowing that maybe there was something of the man he loved still within the vampire's heart, but never able to reach it... This plot bunny will need someone willing to delve into the darkest parts of both characters, draw deeply from the well of emotion, and likely a lot of CWs in there particularly with a major character death. Is anyone willing to take home this bunny with a bite?

Magic smut, any Gale pairing

Gale using polymorph to "swap bodies" with his partner before sex. First he gets to nerd out about it and then they have fun, experimental sex exploring their new bodies.

I want it to be fun and lighthearted and the more different the partner is from Gale physically, the better.

I would prefer his partner not to be Astarion, cause those two are already well loved, but ultimately you do you.

A BunnySwap?! Polymorph Smut Fun! Gale x ???

Oooh we like this one, it has a lot of range to explore. There are so many options and each has its own threads to pull to weave into a unique plot with this idea. We might humbly suggest Wyll as a partner for this one though, as we have some very interesting parallels to explore. Wyll has a new body, one that feels unfamiliar to him, and leans towards a slower burn romance that could read as hesitance to be physically intimate due to both the changes he has undergone and the lingering formalities of his former noble status. Gale has spent years leaning only on the magical for sexual experiences and is quite thoroughly disconnected from his own physical body at first, despite the abundance of desire bubbling ever beneath the surface. With that pairing, you have a real potential to play with the polymorph in them taking their time to find out what feels good to each other's bodies, trying things that they might have felt hesitant to ask about or to suggest be tried on themselves. Once the spell wears off - or is dismissed - it will be even better to see them appreciating each other in a whole new light. I think the bunny just arrived with its own body worship kink! Would anyone like to take on this magical bunny? It doesn't have to be Wyll, of course, that's only our suggestion of a possible pairing! Remember to reblog or comment on this post if you write something for this bunny!

Yurgir x Tav

Act 2 yurgir is freed from the deal with raph by tav.

yurgir offers a warlock pact as thanks but also to fuck with raph back.

contact includes clause about not being able to make other deals while they use his power.

act 3 raph is pissed he can't do the hammer deal, and of course tav and yurgir team ul in house of hope fight

of course you can have some fun with nsfw stuff, maybe there's some reward system for tav killing things or they need to do favors to spell slots whatever you want.

toss in some pact communication for fun yurgir commentary more often.

and the brain fight of course, and whatever fun after

idk just like more yurgir in bg3

A Bunny With A Contract! Yurgir x Tav

This one is a fascinating take on Yurgir that we haven't seen before! Can the Commander become a Patron to the valiant Little Rabbit? What kinds of spells would he most approve of? What other terms are a part of their deal?

Orthons by their nature are fiercely loyal, and will likely expect the same from their pact Warlocks, how might this play out later? There could be some spicy potential here for suspected disloyalty and the ways in which that might be resolved. So, is anyone looking to bring some more Yurgir to the party? He is one of the less-written-about characters, and we here with our love of plot bunnies might have a smudge of fondness for the one who calls us all Little Rabbit...

[lostplotbunniesbg3]

I have a plot bunny and need a cowriter to help me. My fic is on A03 called “to hell and back”, it is fTav x Zevlor with a pregnancy 🥰 send me a message for the details!

A Bunny Owner Needs Aid! f!Tav x Zevlor

We're mainly here for plot bunnies that have no home yet, but we could try boosting this bunny with its current owner who needs help raising it to a full grown Fic Rabbit.

If anyone is interested please get in touch with the OP. Good luck, OP! We hope you find the assistance you need to get this plot bunny moving again!

[lostplotbunniesbg3]

Astarion x Wyll marriage of convenience au

Wyll needs to marry asap for whatever posh political reasons (with a dash of self-sacrifice of course). He thinks it over in some shady tavern and gets propositioned by Astarion who works there as a sex worker. Wyll proposes a deal - he gets a spouse who won't mind his lack of love and Astarion gets out of the brothel. For a while Astarion just revels in luxury and annoys Wyll’s noble social circle. Eventually, maybe the plot catches up to them and they have to rely on each other in danger and develop feelings, maybe Astarion decides that seducing Wyll will give him a better position in all of this, maybe Wyll just catches feelings on his own and suffers in silence, but feelings there are.

More of a longfic idea

Doesn't matter NSFW or not

Do want: a bit of humor, they both are hilarious in their own way, Wyllach being besties at least acknowledged, at least one ballroom dance scene💃

Don't want: Imbalanced fic (I love them both! Gimme both!), game retelling.

A Gentleman Vampire Bunny Goes To The Ball Wyll/Astarion AU!

Looking for a bunny to take on long walks in the moonlight after an evening at a fancy masquerade with all the nobles? Look no further! This little plot bunny has a lot of ideas to have some fun alongside the deep storytelling potential, as long as you don't stray too close to the game plot. There's a really nice potential here too for switching POV between the pair, to dig deeper into the feelings of each as they develop through the events of a longer story. Is there an edge of forbidden love to the pair, with the noble seeking affection from one of lower station? Will other potential betrothed seek to thwart their relationship or expose it as a lie, until doing so ends up exposing the truth of their feelings for each other in a moment of haste or peril? Can the Blade save the Pale Elf from a lifetime of struggling to get by, and can that same Elf keep a hero's heart safe when he's finally ready to share it?

Lots of beautiful ideas here, see where they lead you!

[lostplotbunniesbg3]

Shadowheart/Abdirak Switchy religious pain play

They both know how to take and how to give pain, but they view it very differently. Shadowheart sees pain as something to endure, a part of her doctrine of loss, and for Abdirak pain is a divine gift, a sacrament. I just think they would have something to talk about as they beat each other up, but they would also enjoy it.

Could be a smutty one shot, could be a philosophical conversation with SM stuff thrown in, could be a longer thing where they delve into each other's pasts and traumas.

A Bunny With A Bite Emerges! Shadowheart/Abdirak

This dear little bunny has a lot of potential for a deep dive into both characters, their parallels, and the deliciously tantalising prospect of weaving intricate thoughts throughout the altered headspace that often accompanies BDSM from either side of the equation.

How do their thoughts differ? Where might they agree? How do they want to explore and discover these things?

Both characters work well to switch (taking either a Dominant or submissive role in BDSM) and this could potentially fit a non-sexual BDSM scenario if someone were looking to make this bunny even more unique. For those less familiar with BDSM who are interested in researching these angles, keep in mind that whilst subspace is more often spoken about, Domspace is also a phenomenon experienced that can open up some real introspective during or after the scene.

But of course, this could be a completely SFW bunny, exploring the meaning of pain and the purpose it can give to two different lives as they cross paths. It is entirely up to you all, as always - so who would like to adopt the bunny with the sharpest claws?

[lostplotbunniesbg3]

Shadowheart/Halsin hospital AU

Halsin always wanted to be a vet, but was pressured into going into human medicine. He enjoys helping people but there's something missing.

Shadowheart works in the morgue.

They keep running into each other when SH takes smoke breaks and Halsin goes to feed ducks in the nearby pond or to help with a flower bed

A Tender Bunny Hops In Shadowheart/Halsin AU

This little bunny might suit a home with a little more knowledge in the medical field if you wanted to play deeper with that side, but even without the research it could be a very sweet setting for a caring character like Halsin. Having Shadowheart in the morgue is a wonderful parallel to the darker side of her character, and the potential for her to come out into the sun more often as she sees a reason - the very nice man who feeds the ducks every day...

See where this one takes you, the AU has room to be longer or just a one shot fic, whichever you would prefer!

[lostplotbunniesbg3]

Toxic galethara and Corruption of One Gale Dekarios! It's a bad one!

Pre-tadpole/no tadpole au

Gale leaves his tower and goes into the underdark to either seek out some obscure artifact that can help with orb problem or to just die deep underground where he can't hurt anyone (depending on your preferred level of angst)

Minthara is either cast out or sent to some busywork mission to get her out of the way of the More Important Baenres

Gale almost dies to some terrible underdark monster but Minthara slays it and he is so infinitely grateful, also someone to talk to

Minthara can see value in a wizard/time bomb even if he's... You know 😒

Toxic relationship ensues.

You can go for character study, plots and intrigue, underdark world building, all kinds of stuff

A Troublesome Bunny Appears! Gale/Minthara AU

This bunny has several cases of emotional baggage with it, but that should be all the more reason to take it home and see what's inside!

Drow politics and the troubles of a Wizard with a terrible curse combine in the dark to bring this plot together, with plenty of room for the two to make each other worse. Will Minthara only ever see him as a tool to use for her own gain? Will Gale even be opposed to the idea of someone else using him so selfishly, because being wanted is better than being cast aside? What happens when two ambitious souls cross paths without the influence of the tadpole?

[lostplotbunniesbg3]

I am back again! 🖤

M!Tav x Zevlor - NSFW One-shot

Gen plot: Tav decides to hang out with Zevlor at the Tiefling party. Standing beside him... casually... definitely not whispering dirty things in his ear to try and tempt him away...

Bonus points+ Halsin notices what's happening and edges it on

A Hellrider Bunny Multiplied?! m!Tav x Zevlor

It seems these bunnies have been busy, another Tav/Zevlor has hopped out with a little flower between its ears.

This time we have a naughty little one shot bunny, to have m!Tav teasing the old paladin with thoughts of a more private party the two of them might attend. Halsin encouraging them seems like a perfect idea, perhaps he passes them some fresh drinks with a smirk and a quip that may make both turn a little redder?

Lots of fun to be had with finding how long the Tiefling can maintain his composure with someone flirting and riling him up.

What will happen when he finally snaps and gives in to that cheeky little urge? Will he take the lead and drag Tav away to somewhere secluded? Or will he need more convincing?

Whisper it into this plot bunny's ear and see where it leads you!

[lostplotbunniesbg3]

This one would lend itself well to either SFW or (more likely) NSFW, but the idea of Haarlep being sweet to Raph but obscuring it in teasing is delicious to me. Just “Ah, poor master, always a step behind” while genuinely pampering and taking care of him. It gives Raph plausible deniability to grump over it too without having to admit his feelings.

A Devilishly Sweet Bunny Appears! Raphael/Haarlep

There's so much to play with in the Raphael/Haarlep dynamic (or for a plot bunny, would that be hare-lep?...stop booing us, you know we're right) and this angle is a delicious one to examine. So you could take it in a purely fluffy SFW direction, or let the bunny run more rampant with an NSFW piece.

These two do often suit that antagonistic relationship vibe that's more of a veneer for something softer underneath, and it looks like this could fit a shorter piece or a longer fic examining their dynamics over a longer period of time.

Do either of them ever openly admit how they feel? Does it become more of a game to try and push each other into revealing they genuinely care? Does Raphael begin to tease back or leave hints/opportunities for Haarlep to spoil him more? We'll pass this one on to all of you, before the bunny fills a field with more of them! Let us know where this one takes you, it could be a very deep warren down there - after all, who are we to say what love and affection looks like to fiends in the hells?

(How is this gif 5 hours long?)
