Small Announcement (?)

Heyo! I hope y’all been well! I just have a little status update in regards to what I’ll be posting for the next few days/weeks.

Although I primarily joined Tumblr to share my love for BG3 and its wonderful characters (mostly NPCs at this point), I do hope to share content for another lovely game that’s coming real soon, Dragon Age: The Veilguard

I’ve been anticipating for the release since its trailer in June, and upon hearing it has camera mode, I hope to extend my skills and passion to another game.

Now this isn’t me saying bye to BG3, of course not! Once I adjust my current hyperfixation, I’ll be mixing both BG3 and Veilguard shots to give some variety. I gotta diversify my content since my posts haven’t gotten much traction (which I don’t mind, I don’t really post for the numbers or anything). Besides, I’ll likely give some Veilguard NPCs the spotlight too since the CC’s quite impressive with their looks~!

With that in mind, I look forward to also share my own characters between both games! I answered a question that showcased some of my designed Tavs/Durge, I do plan on posting more of them in the future. I’m also excited to share some Rooks too while the bandwagon is rolling, can’t wait to unveil the curtains on them soon!

Overall, I hope the slight change of pace doesn’t confuse anyone who came solely for BG3 shots. Though I’m glad to let you know in advance, so thank you for understanding! 💛💙

After Hours

“All the time in the world, and I want to make every second count with you.” 💙💛

I’m Not A Doppelgänger, I Swear It!

How can you say no to those puppy dog eyes and his iconic frown? 🥺🥺

Portrait of the Dragon’s Betrayer

A little inspiration from the data-mined content in Act 3! He may have done his job under the Black Hand, but loyalties don’t lie within those who betray their friends. Did Rugan really see his crew as ‘friends’? Who knows.

Abdirak x Donnick (aka Soup) sharing a little rest.

I contributed to @redroomroaving ’s problem, so I’m jumping on the Baldurian Clown Wagon now 🤡😂

I present to you - Norris, before he was Dribbles the Clown.

Sorry for making this all of your problems, too.

Silver Tears upon the Black Hand

To the lowly soldier

Lonely and lovely.

Your hands pluck the satin strings of moonlight

Hold your breath, and sip from the chalice

Where one drop poisons your tongue

A trickle from the heart of a golden dragon.

Bitter. Breathe. Sweet.

His dark finger draws along your chin

Scales shimmer like daggers, veins run with lies.

“Unworthy,” coated with honey.

But why close your eyes?

Breathe. It won’t be your last.

Play Selune’s melody, let her tears roll down your cheeks.

Fear plays tricks with the hand of Bane

To make a love so scandalous

Forbidden

As it shines upon your fateful meeting.

I got some epic nighttime shots thanks to the Slightly Darker Act 3 Mod! Act 3 definitely looks prettier at night~ 👀✨

I also felt a bit poetic with the pictures in mind, so this was something I came up with on the whim for my lovely ship! Hope you like it!

a few bits of Geraldus x Rolan (Thunderharp) for your Wednesday.

(many thanks to the super talented @scoopaspoonful - go check out their amazing stuff- and lovely @russica - a fantastic artist you should scope out! - for showing me the ropes of how to actually use camera mods)

Adventure for Two

Happy Sunday! Time for another showcase for these lovelies with some nifty locations and classic outfits! Hope you enjoy! 🤭

Tip the Chultan Fireswill

💙: Have you eaten today? You���re… a bit thinner than before.

💛: I trip over a bloody bottle, and that’s the first thing you say to me?

~~~

The Replayable Romance Scenes mod got an update today, and I couldn’t resist sharing this amazing shot I got of them! I also got to test out some new ReShade stuff, so I love how it turned out!

Treat Me to Something Nice

💙“I’m sor— thank you, Rugan. I’m asking a lot for a simple gesture, yet I appreciate you for doing it anyway.”

💛“Eh, I’m usually beyond the hand-holding and hugging. But it’s enough for me when it means a lot to you.”

In my headcanon, they both compliment each other’s love languages! Rugan provides physical touch to a touch-starved Geraldus, while Geraldus gives words of affirmation to encourage a tired Rugan. The littlest things can go a long way when needed!

[scoopaspoonful]

if those are your tavs not only you're good at virtual photography but also at character design

Aww thank you so much!

The only design that’s not entirely original (from my intro post) is Chappell Roan’s knight look from the VMAs. On the other hand, Decker’s design was for me to visualize him in one of my short stories, so he hasn’t been fully played yet. But hey— cowboys in Faerun don’t sound so far-fetched! 😂

Though, I’ll take this opportunity to present some more of my Tavs and their designs! I’ve been looking forward to sharing them, so hopefully they make a good first impression! 🤭

Vulgaris

he/him, Half Wood Elf, Ranger (Gloomstalker)/Rogue (Assassin), Astarion Romancer

god the first pic is the best one I’ve taken, I can’t stop fawning over him 😍

This is my very first Tav (and later Durge) when I first played the game last August! He is one where I’ve written his character arc as if he was a companion in the game, and I’m planning a separate post dedicated to him in the future!

Vulgaris is a quiet man that’s full of mystery, who has gone through some stuff he wishes to let go and forget. He is a ‘Marksman of Malar’, a specialized huntsman under contract with the lesser deity Malar. He’s not entirely a Malarite in worship, but doesn’t bother to correct anyone if it scares them (though his story ties similarly to the Durge, which I’ll write about later).

My favorite part of his design is actually the face tattoo, namely the Ivy Trellis tattoo seen in the base game. Paired with the Key of Ancients circlet, it’s become a significant feature to his story that’s similar to Gale’s orb.

Aimilios Vencoratere

she/her, Crinti (Half-Elf/Half-Drow), Fighter (Eldritch Knight)/Cleric (War Domain; Ilmater), Gale Romancer

My second Tav! She was the first playthrough where I was introduced to modding, and I do love making pretty women! One of my favorite parts was changing her hair and armor throughout all the Acts, as she isn’t used to much of the ‘outside world’ and has to adapt to it in some shape or form.

Aimilios (born Ilphadril Myndar) is a valiant woman, born and raised in Dambrath yet a former knight from Suzail in Cormyr. She bears a Spellscar that greatly affects her magic and overall health, claiming it to be an ill-fated curse. In contrast to her domain, she worships Ilmater and questions if her judgement to an enemy’s suffering are morally true.

Syvne Nasadra

she/they, Drow (Szarkai), Monk (Way of Shadow), Karlach Romancer

Fun fact, I created Syvne for a Discord server called “Waterdeep Connections”, where Tavs/Durges can be set up with companions via matchmaking, kinda like using a Faerunian dating app! I haven’t gone far for her gameplay, but hopefully I can return after she was paired with Karlach.

Syvne is a seductive dancer by day, and a hidden spy at night. She fled her home of Ched Nasad upon its destruction, and travelled throughout Western Faerun to re-build her career from scratch. She eventually settled in Sharess’ Caress where Nym and Sorn became her sibling-figures, and she holds quite the reputation under her alias Sangris Virago.

I definitely have more Tavs and Durges that will eventually get the spotlight, but I’ve worked with these three in particular during every hyperfixated opportunity 😂. Other than my plan for Vulgaris, I’d love to make dedicated posts for each of my characters if there’s an interest!

Thank you! 🥄

I feel bad, the drow twins always come close to winning my npc polls but never quite manage to make it to the end. So I wanted to do a quick sketch because I know some of you were rooting for them 😌

“The Passion of Thorm”

“In the name of the Father, the Son, and the Holy Ghost”

“An Evening within the Gates”

Time to open my treasure chest, because these two are the only gems bedazzling my eyes! ✨
