#although granted Neeshka is much smarter than Astarion could ever be

I'm stuck in the loop of Altoholism, aka the crippling addiction of making alternate characters, in Baldur's Gate 3 and had a fun idea. What would have happened if Neeshka from Neverwinter Nights 2 was the Tav? I mean, she can't be Dark Urge because that origin is already fully lored out, but Neeshka didn't have much going on canonically after NwN2 was done--she could have traveled up to Baldur's Gate at some point and gotten kidnapped by cultists. Why not? So, here she is, in updated modern graphics glory!
I think I got her face shape and horns pretty accurate; I picked the hair and hair color that was closest to what was in the original game, too. The eyes are a little brighter, but I couldn't resist giving her amber-colored eyes that looked a little on fire instead of just brown ones, since she is a tiefling. None of the tattoos looked right for the speckles she's supposed to have on her forehead, so I compromised by giving her freckles and then a nymph circlet to kind of mimic the forehead markings. She's a rogue, of course, and a Mammon tiefling, since I thought that was fitting for her, and still worships Tymora. I think she looks pretty snazzy. =)
