Assorted Media Sentences, Vol. 8 || accepting [🏹]

|| @lunarrepel

Dronia took a moment to assess what just happened. She had acted without much thought, tackling the cleric to the floor before the spell could hit her. Her reflexes had been much more sharp in the last few nights since her curse finally manifested here in the Shadow Cursed lands. Shadowheart seemed okay, she might be a bit tender in a few minutes, but nothing a healing potion couldn't fix.

"Let's not keep score on that. I didn't want to see you scorched" She replied, straightening her back and letting her eyes adjust to her new dark vision. It was weird how different everything felt, now. "Just tell me you're alright. I fear we've only just entered the thick of it." Things were getting infinitely more dangerous and she wasn't going to let anyone die on her watch.

When I feel angry or mischievous, I like staring at dark, violent, vibrant, weird art. Most of the time, I find happiness in fantasy.

But when I feel sad and depressed, I like staring at something beautiful. Thank you @ichimakesart @mioree @mooreaux @iingezo @annazees @nodensart @melqinnee Your art makes me smile through those sad days 💜

bg3 playthrough🏹

my lovely ranger (1 rogue 1 wizard - might change) tav draven is out with: his love, astarion, bestie shadowheart, and wyll. gale went back to camp for some ... alone time.. we’re on the trail of the hag, and missing child, and just walking from the beach to the barracks and to the blushing mermaid

I’m laughing at the banter with wyll there, the teasing, grossing wyll out, and just plain making fun of him. also, not shadowheart and astarion ever so flirting with each other, him teasing her about who'd he bite when asked who he'd feed on if he had free rein, her making out she doesn't care by his response .. like don't mind me, go ahead you two.

there’s a few more but it wouldn’t fit in a 10min video

(i'm so proud of myself being able to somewhat remember where i'm going esp essentially walking backwards from my perspective)

not me running when hearing from those magic users in front of sorcerous sundries ... they're so louuuddd. I may have to make some more of the loud ones disappear. i need a option to reduce npc banter separately from companion as some of them are too loud

I’ve been making an effort to take wyll out more, well i say more that's a lie this is the first time he's been out with us this play through 😭 even tho his approval is at exceptional lol howwww. I just haven’t really warmed up to him. I don’t hate him I’m just eh about him, still.

its not as smooth framed as some, and it can drop from time to time, but to say my gtx 1050 (2gb) i5-9400F 32gb ram (was 8gb) is definitely old, it's held up well

i had it at lower settings before but since i upgraded from 8 to 32gb this year it helped. i'm able to play and that's all that matters to me.

|| @nerimoi

It seemed the gods really did have it out for the lot of them, didn't it? Couldn't catch a single break or have time to catch their breath. It wasn't the usual down on one's luck kind of deal, it felt exponentially unbalanced and favored against them. Dronia simply shook her head at the cleric's statement, leaning back against the stone beam in the tower.

"Bashaba's bad breath..."

She pulled a piece of jerky from her pack, tearing it in half, and offering the other half to Shadowheart. "I don't know what we did to piss off Tymora, but it feels like we are certainly not in her graces by any means."

BG3 CHARACTER PAGE

Jove they/any 🌩️ blue dragonborn 🌩️ paladin 🌩️ guild artisan

🌩️ multiclass: bard

Jove’s Oath of Ancients is a sacred commitment to affirm life, foster joy, be excellent to each other, and PARTY ON, DUDES!! A literally sworn optimist, they can come across as risk-happy, blasé, even callous in their dismissal of danger and negativity, but it’s also easy to get swept up in their huge dragonborn muscles and +9 rizz modifier and believe them when they say it’ll all be okay.

They used to be a gifted artisan, but don’t talk about their career or how it ended. Now they’re a paladin errant, wielding their giant glaive and ferocious positivity against the agents of despair. After losing an eye, breaking their wrist and their oath, Jove’s optimism has grown back harder and more gnarled than before, and they tend to defer to their companions for major decisions, not trusting their own judgment anymore.

Romancing Shadowheart Lae’zel. Best friends with Gale. Healer tank.

My first solo playthrough PC, abandoned at Moonrise Towers (for now).

TAG: #oc: jove

Estis she/her 🌞 gold dwarf 🌞 dream guardian

Ritika Estis was the master metallurgist who taught Jove to work with molten materials, despite their misgivings about being a blue dragonborn without fire breath or resistance. She passed away some years ago in Baldur’s Gate, but Jove’s dream guardian takes her form—whether as a cheap ploy to gain Jove’s trust, or as a genuine echo of their old mentor, they can’t be sure.

Auntie she/her ◾️ githyanki ▪️wild magic barbarian◾️ The Dark Urge

▪️ multiclass: storm sorcerer

This gith knows nothing about her life before the nautiloid, but since Lae’zel addressed her (and mocked her) like an elder relative she answers to “Auntie.” Lonely, curious, reactive. Center of a Venn diagram between “cigarette mom” and “Frankenstein’s monster.” Looks and fights like a gith, but lacks any cultural context or instincts that would make her feel like one.

Romancing Gale & Minthara.

Second playthrough, the only one I’ve completed.

TAGS: #oc: auntie, #ellie’s fucked up playthrough

Deadeye & Singer she/her 🏹 human 🏹 rogue/ranger she/her 🪕 halfling 🪕 bard

Auntie’s 2 hirelings. Deadeye was a young hunter, blinded in an accident and then given her sight back by a True Soul… just so she could watch her entire village burn, then have—her killers thought—her eyes put out and closed forever. Singer was a halfling traveling apothecary, killed for refusing to tend to Absolutists and sing for them after the massacre.

Though both women’s presences are cold and diminished and they can only speak with Withers’s vocabulary, traces of their personality remain. Deadeye was playful once, and still has the light step, deft hand, and trace of a wicked smile to prove it. Astarion swears he’s heard her coo and giggle faintly while playing with Scratch at night, long after the party’s living members are asleep. Singer was stern, matronly, and humorless with others, her face only relaxing when she was absorbed in her herbcraft or music making. Auntie gifted her Lihala’s lute, though it hurts to see a bard outlined against the campfire again, quietly picking out the notes of “The Power,” just feet away from the shadow of Alfira’s bloodstain.

Auntie doesn’t know she is a Bhaalspawn, but she feels instinctively that it’s her duty to care for murdered bodies and souls. She knows the names these revanants bore in life (Maddala and Brenna), but doesn’t use them, out of respect for these women’s vengeful echoes being different from the women themselves, and she’s as protective of them as she is of her “real” companions.

Terpsichore 🐏 she/her 🐏 satyr 🐏 rogue

She sings! She dances! She rams you with her horns!

Like Shadowheart, Terpsichore is on a holy mission for her patron goddess, armed only with her wits, blades, and the memories that her enclave—her Selûnite enclave—considered necessary for her to complete the task she’s been set: a pilgrimage to Moonrise Towers to assassinate an agent of Shar.

One second, she was crossing the Tower’s threshold (or windowsill, in the adept rogue’s case)—the next that she knew, she was being sealed in a pod aboard the nautiloid for processing. Failed. Abandoned. Godless. For now. If she doesn’t salvage this.

Terpsichore was told she’d know her target on sight, but she can’t be sure it isn’t Shadowheart—after all, while wrestling for the chance to kill each other they saw flashes of their own memories in each other’s minds, and Terpsichore feels… a lot… when she lays eyes on this particular enemy. ;-)

"Not quite either day or night."

💀🩸SLEEP TOKEN LYRICS -- ROLEPLAY PROMPTS || accepting [🗡️]

|| @nerimoi

Dronia followed Shadowheart's gaze to the blackened skies above them. Having entered these lands from the Underdark, it was hard to tell what time of day it truly was, or night. It... disturbed her. So much of her ability to track and forage and hunt had depended on sun, star, and moon positions, and now... there was nothing to guide her. Everything here felt lost, coated in an obscene darkness, unnatural and unforgiving. "No, it really isn't."

She turned to face Shadowheart, the light from her torch being the only thing keeping them safe from the Shadow Curse. "I'm curious, as a follower of Shar, how does darkness like this make you feel?" She couldn't just assume they all felt the same unease that she did in this unnatural absence of light.

bg3 playthrough🏹

now I’ve entered act 3 again, I've been trying to learn about respecting/multi classing some of my companions, so far just astarion and shadowheart since they’re in my party, thinking about gale too

I know everyone always goes on about thief for astarion for that extra bonus attack but i kept him as his default in my first run and now up to act 2. also I liked him using and having more spells. so finally doing that. he’s half a gloomstalker ranger now too. I like to think my gloomstalker tav, draven has been teaching him things, having night lessons and stuff since he.. erm broke up from gale. I still feel a little bad at breaking them up, but I wanted him to have both (in a nice mutual way) and that’s not possible with them two ;; so had to go with silly vampire.. again. ( i will never not annoy myself for switching fully to astarion after i said i would chose gale...lol its fine)

I’m still very new to learning all this and want to find good builds myself not just relying on the internet, cause that’s boring having what everyone else does. Also what am I learning if I don’t test for my self? Also the idea of having an extremely buffed up heavy hitter seems boring and not a challenge in game play like I don’t wanna speed through it. I’m not on honour mode either so I don’t need it like that..

I wanna add some levels of druid to my tav, it seems nice as a bit of his back story but I don’t know..is ranger druid a good idea… how about a level or two of wizard. Okay I added 1 level of wizard so I can get the shield and give someone else the shield necklace cause that thing comes in handy a lot annnnnnnnnnd ive added 1 level of rogue🤔 see .. see what i've done there 🫠

i downloaded the ethel hair mod and only used each one on a character .. i didn't get get the option to get yet it in my first or this playthrough and i feel this is okay i'm justifying it to myself lol

“Yeah, but you should see the other guy.”

HURT / COMFORT : STARTERS || accepting [🏹]

|| @wisdomlibrarian

She never understood that sentiment. Why would she want to see the other guy when she is more concerned with the person that stands before her now? To the hells with the other guy. Dronia was already rifling through her bag, pulling out the necessary supplies to patch her up, shaking her head all the while at such a silly statement.

"Why would I want to? You're the one I'm concerned about. Sit down, let me patch you up until we can get Shadowheart to heal you properly at camp."

[thcdoomed]

She had a point, much as she hated to admit it. "Thank you," her voice came out barely above a whisper. "I can still remember what it felt like having fangs in my own throat, I didn't want to leave you with the same... trauma." That's the word, it was always the word. She woke up terrified and traumatized, surrounded by smoke and the smell of burnt flesh, and the sight of her fiance dead a few feet away, his neck snapped. They most likely killed him after making him watch her own life slip away. Had she not made it to Jalen's house when she had, barely clinging on to life, she would have turned to a dhampir with no safety net. A beast of the woods.

"I should." She really should, but she hated the nightmares that haunted her when she closed her eyes. If not the dream visitor who wore Caius' face, then the flashbacks of that night, the very ones that sometimes warped where she saw herself feeding from Caius instead. Dronia peered outside the tent again, observing the others. Even if no one questioned why she was in Shadowheart's tent, her especially glowing eyes would tip them off. Astarion would smell the blood on her breath, no doubt.

It was an amusing sight, watching the two lively animals scrambling over one another to make their way to the tent. Such wonderful beasts the both of them. They made the nights less lonely when she couldn't sleep.

Dronia was usually the one giving instructions to their faithful furry friend and the feathery cub, but Shadowheart seemed a natural at speaking gently with them. It was endearing. Made her think of the dog she had as a child that stayed on the homestead. But Scratch's attention quickly turned to her as he made his way over, whining gently and resting against her as a form of comfort. Her heart melted, people didn't deserve the kindness of animals sometimes. Her hand gently stroked his head as she looked down, her ability to speak with animals silently activated as she whispered "Good boy."

"For a second — " Dronia said, glancing up, " — I thought you were talking to me." There was a hint of amusement before she let out a yawn. All that strength she took from feeding and yet the absolute stress had worn her out enough to need the sleep. "I think I'm just going to lay my head down for a bit," she said with another yawn, allowing herself to move further into the tent to the corner Shadowheart had pointed out, allowing Scratch to come with her. She knew the moment she laid her head down, she would be out for the count.

"Some things we cannot help, Dronia. I would rather you here as you are, than beyond salvation and control," said Shadowheart, sensing where Dronia's mind was going. She must look down upon herself and this whole ordeal as a moment of admitting weakness. Shadowheart didn't think it was ego, her companion much too good-natured and well-meaning to even seem like she had such an ego. Confidence in her ability, but not an excess of said pride. But what she referred to was more ... the possibility of something else and innocence lost outside in the woods ... living that way.

"It's important that you make the effort and try, I think," She continued, finally releasing Dronia so she could address the latter statement. It made her smile, gaze shifting away from hers for a bit in fondness. That commanding tone ... that was the Dronia she remembered. It was a relief to see that she was already back to herself. "I have not set up any precautions just yet for keeping watch, however ... "

Crawling toward the mouth of the tent, she picked up a large cushion on the way and huddled near the darkness, whistling as low as possible. Dronia could probably do it better to catch both Scratch's and the cub's attention. Both heard well enough, enthusiastically making a dash for her tent and nearly stumbling over one another in the attempt to get there first.

"Scratch. You hear anything amiss, you'll bark right. Very loudly for Dronia to hear you," She nodded toward her tent guest. The dog gave a yip in response, jumping once to show he received the order, understanding her perfectly. Though Scratch was soon to whine after observing Dronia, as if sensing her distress and some of the trauma she had been through, he trotted inside, gave a soft whine before sitting down inside the cradle of her arms.

"Fine," Shadowheart conceded, keeping him in her watchful gaze. "You can sleep here, but mind my order and bark loud if you hear something. You hear better than the both of us combined."

[thcdoomed]

Necessary. To hurt another so that she could maintain control of herself was necessary. She should feel sick and a part of her did, but that blood singing in her veins, stolen blood, prevented the sensation of nausea from overtaking her. Wretched, wretched, wretched. She couldn't even look at Shadowheart for fear that her eyes would wander to the wound on her neck. Roughly around the same area where her own scar lay.

"Were only it were not necessary." And yet she did not pull away from the cleric. For all the guilt that flooded her, there was comfort in the embrace, one she was hesitant to admit to. Shadowheart was honestly one of the last ones she would have expected to be in such a position with. Certainly above Lae'zel and Astarion, but still, while she had always been cordial enough, she was often not very forthcoming, holding her secrets close to her chest. Her fears as well. Dronia respected it, she played her own secrets much the same. They both had their reasons. Perhaps that was why it was Shadowheart who made the offer — Dronia never pushed her past her comfort.

Maybe she was thinking too much into it, they all needed to be on the top of their game to survive this and Dronia somehow became their leader. The benevolent and fair leader who knew the woods well, even if they weren't her own. A guide. And a heart to the others who needed it. So what happened now? The noble and kind huntress was compromised with horrifying hunger. How long before that darkness consumed her completely? Would they stop that from happening?

Dronia glanced out the tent at the warm campfire where a small few still lingered about. The majority of the movement was Scratch and Beaky playing around the edges of the camp. At least those two could find joy despite such deep loss. Oh, to be an animal. She almost envied them. "Are you sure?" She asked, glowing red eyes finally looking to Shadowheart once more.

"No, my thirst is slaked. I should be fine for the rest of the evening." She stirred, trying to sit up from the embrace, rubbing at the back of her own neck. "Is someone set up for first watch? Second watch?" Ever the meticulous planner, she was. "I want to make sure that camp will be safe if I... if I try to sleep off this feeling. I don't want to leave us vulnerable." She didn't want to think about what else Shadowheart had said... about what the others would think. Her secret coming to light, one she didn't even know about, was shocking enough. They didn't need to know what happened tonight, at least not until the morn.

She could feel the initial tremblings, the plea for her to stop because she didn't want to hear this right now. She was like a coiled spring waiting to hear the inevitable spite that came after, the disgust and the changed opinion. Maybe she expected to start seeing fear in Shadowheart's eyes from here on ... or perhaps she expected avoidance. Maybe a mixture of all these things. It wasn't really working out that way though, with the way Shadowheart was still holding her and only pulling away after a minute or two when she mentioned feeling better.

"Then what we did was helpful ... necessary, you could say," said Shadowheart, and she was surprised herself at her own statement. Of all the people in their encampment, she knew she came off as one of the more shrewd ones, not speaking unless spoken to and oftentimes with heaps of deflection. It happened with Dronia too where a conversation became circular by her design so that the other would grow tired of it. She always ... seemed to have a knowing look to her eye though, like she knew what Shadowheart was doing, like she was catching on ... kind of understanding her comfort zone.

Is that what was happening right back? Was she grateful for that so she was offering this in payment? It didn't seem like that was ... the only reason. She remembered back to thinking of how Dronia's state would be if things went badly, if she didn't regain a measure of control. She didn't want to linger on it then, and she still doesn't want to now ... but was there something to that? Something ... more? Was it more than a potential grieving towards their leader, her friend, her comrade?

"You should rest here for the night," She finally said. It was late enough that she figured at least Astarion and Lae'zel were still awake and drinking. Maybe they saw Dronia approach here but she could hope they assumed she was sleeping soundly in her own tent. While Shadowheart recommended it, she cast a healing spell over her neck so the wound would close, but she knew it would likely still be ... visible in the morning.

"I won't disturb you if you want to take a singular corner of the place," said Shadowheart with a gestured toward the more shadowed area of her tent that wasn't really covered by the torchlight. "If you're scared of ... doing something. But if you want to go outside and face scrutiny, that's fine too. You're certainly charismatic enough to fenagle an excuse up, though I would assume ... in your state, coming up with such things on the spot might prove difficult."
