#also I couldn't pass the chance to reconnect Mathias' apperance to his Gargoyle one

omg ok, now that I am done with Act 2 again, I need to take a break.

Same point as my previous playthrough, as well.

I think that Act 2 is so emotional and filled with stuff to do that the idea of starting Act 3 right away is just DAUNTING.

But because I cannot stay away from the game for so long (and because I felt a bit nostalgic tbh), I just went back to the Tav Character Creator and made Mathias, Antoine and Dorothea.

BEHOLD.

LOOK AT THEM. MY DARLING BRAINCHILDREN, FOREVER TOGETHER IN EVERY SINGLE UNIVERSE THEY WERE EVER TO EXPLORE.

My dearest Mathias De Beumont, a Mephistopheles Tiefling, ever virtuous, a Paladin devoted to Selûne and hailing from old town Elturel, and my darling Dorothea Morgenstern, Half-High Elf Cleric of Laethander and a member of the "Seekers of the Dawn", who consacrated her life to protect her homeland, Neverwinter, but has quite the knack to find herself in trouble more often than not.

I like to imagine that they met on the way to Myth Drannor, with Dorothea tasked with a mission to search for artifacts that belonged to Lathander to bring back to Neverwinter and Mathias looking for means to reinstitue the defunct Order of the Guardians of Light. And then, together, they enbarked in a journey to bring a sacred relic back to Neverwinter and OF COURSE, they would fall for one another on the journey back home.

(blame me listening to this version of "For The Dancing and the Dreaming", dear Gods, this song is so Mottie coded it's not even funny)

GAH, NOW I NEED A VERSION OF THE GAME WHERE I CAN HAVE MY TWO BRAINCHILDREN FALL IN LOVE ALL OVER AGAIN. FML.

Honestly, Mathias and Gale would get along so well. SO WELL.

And Dorothea would just adore Karlach, and engage in as many bitching duels with Shadowheart as possible.
