Tav Question

Not a question! Just share your Tav/Durge’s name and picture!

[yesistolethisurl]

playing two different playthroughs with tavs who were married (and are each other's guardians) is already interesting, but playing two different playthroughs with tavs who were married who happen to fall for the same person is a whole other ball game.

(like kudos to the writing for being so flexible that these two different personalities still gel with romancing gale but like)

even ten years after the other has passed away, their mutual questionable taste in men is still in lockstep lmao

[yesistolethisurl]

going through my screenshots again and uh

wow. tell me you have a type without telling me you have a type, daisy.

(bonus daisy realizing she's more predictable than she thought)

[yesistolethisurl]

one of the unintentionally funniest things about deciding daisy's backstory before the epilogue was added to bg3 was how it synchronizes with wyll's. the move from infernal pact holder to ranger only has two data points, so you can't really call it a pipeline, but it sure is funny it's happened twice!

Atavian Katabast, former adventuring-detective, current alchemist and apothecary.

• Race

Asmodeus Tiefling, though he couldn't really tell you his lineage, if you asked him.

• Class

Wizard! He's a reluctant necromancer, but he's a bit too good at it for someone who has moral qualms about disturbing the dead.

• Backstory (Spoilers for Blood in Baldurs Gate)

In 1477, Atavian and his wife, Daisy Katabast, investigated a series of murders in Baldurs Gate. Through the course of the investigation, they deduced that not only was there a singular killer responsible for these murders, but that the killer had some sort of affiliation with Bhaal. Unfortunately for them, Atavian was soon informed by a mysterious “butler” that he'd attracted the attention of the killer. The two were able to defeat the killer in a confrontation in the sewers, though not without Atavian being wounded in the fight (notably losing his left ear).

Fifteen years later, things have changed significantly for the Katabast family. After the encounter with the killer, Atavian retired from the detective life, and took on his friend Drusillas alchemy business. Daisy passed away in 1482, and their children have reached adulthood. Around the tail end of Ches, Atavian was asked to come out of retirement by a neighbor, whose son had gone missing, a servant of the Vanthampurs.

The next thing he knew, he was laying on a river bank in the middle of nowhere, with a tadpole in his brain, unable to remember anything about himself (including his name), and in a body that was twenty years younger.

• Personality

Katabast, man that you are. He's stubborn, a busy-body, and entirely too self righteous for a necromancer. He's also determined, curious and compassionate towards his companions, and will doggedly hold on to a moral standard when all moral authorities around him start to fail.

He loves his children more than life itself, and despite it's every attempt to prove otherwise, he hopes that Baldurs Gate can be not just a great city, but a home to those with nowhere else to go.

• Who they're romancing

I've done multiple romances with Atavian now, but honestly I think he's better suited with Halsin as a lover than anyone else (although he is also very cute with Gale, it's just that the two are so different in how they picture domesticity that it'd be a struggle for them to compromise).

• An interesting hobby they have

Funnily enough, being a wizard and studying magic had kind of turned into his hobby for the last several years. Taking care of his (now adult) kids, running an alchemist shop, and “unofficially” taking cases keep him pretty busy. I think if he ended up retiring post-game, he would be driving his kids up the wall, because the man cannot not be working in some capacity.

Tav thread???  I wanna see em all.

i think i finally figured out why jaheira doesn't say anything about her own kids to daisy or atavian after either of them talking about their's

is it because they're basically strangers, and she doesn't want to tell a bunch of dangerous weirdos where her children are? probably. could it also be because she doesn't want to confront that her kids thought she was dead, and have an uncomfortable family reunion? for sure.

is it also perhaps because the katabast boy matches the exact description of a kid that a young rion broke the nose of one time while being rowdy, but never managed to track down in order to make her apologize?

listen, you'll never get her to admit to anything

OC Phone Game

Thank you for the tag, @rowanisawriter!

Use this picrew to make your OC's phone & post the results (I forgot the link initially, my bad)

Tagging @chronurgy, @anderstrevelyan, @black-rose4, & @mashamorevvna

1.) Threnody (fully protected, slightly witchy, don't worry about the phone bleeding, it's fine :) )

2.) Daisy (learned the hard way that she needs a phone case after the kids busted her phone, refuses to upgrade to something without a headphone jack, keeps a burner phone for case contacts)

3.) Atavian (kids still scratched up his phone with a case & screen protector, finger printey as hell, prefers to take case notes in a journal)

[yesistolethisurl]

oh?

oh?? 👀

[yesistolethisurl]

me:

my brain:

my brain: hey what if the reason daisy goes for a kiss instead of saying "I feel the same way" in the Gale romance scene is because she wasn't ready to say "I love you" just yet, but at the Mind Flayer Colony she thinks it's her last chance to do so, so it's the first time Gale hears her say "I love you?"

me:

me: could I get some coffee first or

[yesistolethisurl]

gonna be real awkward if atavian ever runs into another bhaalspawn post-game. gonna be a real short conversation if daisy ever runs into one.

[yesistolethisurl]

[yesistolethisurl]

Really, any timeline where Gale manages to get with Atavian and/or Daisy is a neat way for him to fix the issue of partnership and kids for his mom & Tara in one go.

[yesistolethisurl]

hot memes! hot memes with a side of tired-bounty-hunter-mom!

[yesistolethisurl]

i saw this picrew being passed around, immediately blacked out, and when i awoke, i had a picrew of Atavian and Daisy. 10/10, would blackout again.
