I finished my BG3 evil durge run!

Evil runs were clearly not the intended vision, judging from how spotty the content is. But I did see some new stuff, and the new ending cinematic goes hard. (I did the evil Tav ending.) Overall, I had a lot of fun really leaning into the evil, and getting a whole little movie in the end was a nice finale.

Also this was my first Tactician run, though I had 5-6 people for most fights, and my durge could fly. Still, was a higher difficulty than I've done before, so *pats self on back*

Anyway, here's the summary of my Act 2 and Act 3. Warning for general spoilers and evil ending screenshots at the end!

Not much happened in Act 2. Killed Isobel but spared Aylin and managed to get her and Jaheira to join camp. Poor Gale tried to save the gnomes by opening their cell once the guards were all dead, but they just died outside. Astarion broke up with Durge (Remiel), but there were never feelings involved anyway. I made a whole post about my mess of a Myrkul fight in which I decided to loose a spectator instead of reloading lol. Other than that, they did what they had to do and moved on, leaving the lands cursed.

Then it was onto Act 3. Memories rushing back after the coronation, Remiel decided to go give the Archduke a little private visit. Gortash warned him not to come back without the netherstones, but he doesn't take orders from Gortash. And he needed to remind him of that ;-)

In the city, I couldn't figure out how to kill the people on the list without initiating combat with everyone nearby, so the group started kidnapping people and taking them to the sewers to kill them there. The fact that you can technically do that (by exploiting fast travel) is a lot funnier to me than it should be. Also met this mysterious man!

Continued doing evil things. (Skip this paragraph if you don't care about the list of evil choices.) Got into the Murder Tribunal, sacrificed Jaheira, and killed Valeria to become an Unholy Assassin. Killed Thrumbo. Went to the Society of Brilliance where they found a massacre and met the gith egg baby all grown up. Made a deal with the hag. Broke into House of Hope just to steal Raphael's valuables and kill his boy toy. Handed Aylin over to Lorroakan, because Remiel figured it'd be easier to bring Lorroakan under his thumb than Aylin. Handed Shadowheart over to the Sharrans. Did not help Astarion ascend because he didn't want him to have that much power. Still killed Cazador and the spawns though. Regretted killing the spawns when all the Gur kept calling it a kindness and praised him for doing the "right" thing.

And of course he killed Orin. But he rejected daddy because he decided he wants to do evil for himself.

The only person Remiel has a soft spot for is Gortash. He doesn't want to mind control him, he wants to rule with him sorta, but he still wanted the power for himself and couldn't have Gort getting in the way. So when they met at the Morphic Pool, he (in my headcanon) knocked him out or used poisons to put him to sleep. He even left his crossbow and a healing potion. (But of course they acted like immature children before that.)

Skipped the entire courtyard with invisibility. Got to the final bit of brain quickly, but I failed all attempts to hit it at the Morphic Pool, so it had full HP, and it got dicey at the end. The few characters still alive just barely managed to win before their platform was obliterated.

And then Remiel betrayed everyone and took control of the brain... and the world. *muahahahaha*

The end 🙂 Gosh I love his evil faces lol.

[caede-plays]

This is it - the moment that finally motivated me to post about Rimworld on tumblr.

This fellow tamed a Thrumbo and immediately formed a bond with it.

The last time Thrumbos came by, I had hoped to tame a male and a female so we could have some adorable little baby thrumbos in the future. However, Levi, one of the two pawns with inspired taming at the time, wasn't skilled enough with animals. He stayed up late several nights in a row studying books about animals, but right as he reached a high enough skill level the thrumbos wandered off. So, the one thrumbo that was tamed was later sold. :(

That meant Levi was ready when another pack wandered by today, though! Not only did he tame it, he immediately bonded with it and named it Virgil. I guess we can start hoping for some baby thrumbos soon?

[faecatastrophe]

We used Exarchs magic powers to tame many but we slaughtered excess three thrumbos and while I wasn't looking my colonists formed bonds with them and named em. Currently selling any babies, combining preservation efforts with making some money for the state.

Yeah, sorry buddy, I know you were with us for so long and we played catch every so often and you were the first and so far only anomaly challenge for us but... yeah, I'm turning you into a spine for Exarch.

*space liberal voice* Evil tankie dictator Artemis Katze ruthlessly murdered all her politcal oponents [literal monsters from the Void(they were actually innocent poor little meow meows)] for her own gain

*Emperah voice* Dey shall be me finest warriors. They shall know no fear.

Fire up the cloning machine, we are making modified clones of me to stuff full of implants and bionic replacements, implanting 'em with copies of a mind modified to be perfect at everythin and puting them into walking tanks forver.

*old jobi-nobi voice* she's more machine now than a woman

Exarch now: "Omnipotent. Omniscient. Sovereign. Immutable. How sweet it is to be a god!"

Nevermind, she got humbled in a massive tribal raid. In her defense there were many of them and she killed many before she herself fallen. And she got up a moment later and killed the rest (at least those that didn't get gunned down by our other colonists)

[justadumbasskid]

A final look at the little base I had made in which to store all the accumulated wealth of Artifact Plains. Rssearched and manufactured transport pods to take my four colonists to the Archonexus (Volz's bonded thrumbo, Knockout, could not come since he was too heavy) He'll be fine there. There's plenty of food to go around, and the base is marginally more warm than outside.

Ah, there it is. The Archonexus core. Surrounded by a fuckload of anima trees and quite a lot of Mechanoids. Clearly, anyone that has been here, has died. The site is saturated in desiccated corpses up to and including 300 years old.

The battle to secure the site was okay, though Fuller lost a leg. Naga is a profoundly useless weapon. I'll get rid of the mod that eltex weapons are from. Anyway, I sent my holy warrior Mei to invoke the power of the Machine God and watched as the credits rolled.

Great playthough. I love playing as techist colonies. Though if I'm being honest? Not a fan of the Archonexus ending. Even though I'm a bit of an Archotech fanatic otherwise. It just makes so much sense to me that they're considered gods, you know? Every other god works in mysterious ways, or only shows themselves through signs. Not the Archotechs. They're out there, doin shit, all the time. Their artifacts can be found and utilized by anyone. They routinely effect planetwide populations through weather manipulators and psychic drones. Imagine if you had Jesus Harold Christ powering your lightbulbs - that's what a vanometric powercell is. Perpetual motion machines? Nuclear reactors? Those are for babies, here we manipulate the quantum foam of the universe, creating electricity from literally nothing, for our breaklights.

She Who Had 2000 Babies At Once In Another Timeline

(she's a Thrumbo!!! idk rlly the lore of thrumbos but in-game they're a rare species who's fur and horn sells for a lot in-game :) so i usually try to tame them when the show up by my colony so i can breed em!)

I'll keep her in my thoughts. Miss ma'am said "using all my egg cells speedrun any%"

She's cute tho!!!! And oo smart choice :D is it hard to tame them if they're rare, or does the rarity only really affect how often they show up?

[theultimatepumpkinpie]

Switched back to my old modlist to make a goodbye post for the old save, but it somehow fixed itself lol Still going forward with the new pack though, might as well make sure it's what I want for my next big playthrough and all I have to do for it now is configure VUIE and Craft anything

So say hello, and goodbye to my Archotechs 3.5 save! This is probably my longest running colony at 9 years running over 8d 16h and 145 save files (I use RimSaves to make folders for each colony) and ran surprisingly well for having 465 mods, 10 active pawns and over 42 animals (depending on how many babies there were). Though my new computer and RimPy probably help a lot with that. (Honestly if you use mods and don't use rimpy you're seriously missing out this program is amazing).

It's also my favorite base that I've made, though I had to make some modifications at the end because of the toxic fallout that had just started. Also this was my first base using an actual killbox though it didn't have the snaky slowing passage ways that most have but the turrets were inside a box instead of just littering the outside like I normally do.

My proudest bit though is that using VGE I made a thrumbchicken army that was so much fun to use even if they weren't as tanky as I would have liked.

Like all my Archotech saves, I started with Luna, Randy, and Roland and all three of them were pretty well rounded from the start.

Lunaria 'Luna' Random was focused on crafting and construction, and later animal handling with notable traits being Perfectionist, Neurotic, and Beautiful. She was married and best friends with Randy. She also formed bonds with Susan (anima bear) and Scrungle (thrumbhorse). Her most used psycasts were skip and berserk pulse.

Randy Random was the highest in medical and did crafting but he ended up being the cook for most of the playthrough. His notable traits were Chemical Interest, Crack shot, and Inquisitive. He was married and best friends with Luna. His most used psycasts were stabilizing touch and flash heal.

Roland Royalty specialized in animals, mining and construction. His notable traits were Coordinated, Valiant, and Refined Palate. He was best friends with Hesterman, and formed bonds with Lily (anima fox) and Fully Ottomatic (anima thrumbo). His most used psycasts were smokepop and skipshield.

Along the way many other pawns joined and several went out to create their own outposts (using VOE) but the ones who ended up staying in the main base were Laptop, Furr, Hesterman, Tyber, Grob, Georgiev, and Rattray. The colonists who remained dead by the end of the campaign were Isabel, who was Furrs first lover and Georgiev's at the time of her death, Ongering who I honestly don't remember, and Hakansson who was a recruit from a viking tomb.

Laphonoso 'Laptop' Toppsfield handled plants and research and was Sickly and Too Smart. He was lovers with Geogriev and Ex-lovers with Furr. His best friend was Rattray. He primarily used the blinding pulse and focus psycasts.

Tacita 'Furr' Huckstep also handled plants and did research but was most notable for their Wanderlust and the fact that she was Insatiable and ended up with a total of 4 ex-lovers, including Laptop, Rattray, Isabel (dead), and Navis who went to an outpost. Her current lover is Tyber and best friend is Grob. She had formed a bond with Bite and Punch, two of the thrumbchickens. She used the flash heal psycast the most.

Damond Hesterman loved mining and did a lot of construction. He was Thick Skinned, Nimble and Jealous. He was best friends with Roland and had a bond with Stab, a thrumbchicken. His most used psycast was also flash heal.

Tyber Krivosheev was the colony animal handler but also spent some time with plants. He was Too Smart, Frail, and Restless. He is Furr's current lover and had no other notable relationships. He often used blinding pulse.

Grob Chisky was a recruit from a viking tomb and as such, was an excellent fighter. He spent his time cooking, doing some crafting and construction and research as needed. He was pretty and a patient cook. His best friend was Furr. His most used psycasts were stabilizing touch and skipshield.

Tam Georgiev was the resident expert in construction, building most of the base. She also did research and even developed a flair for art. She was an Ocean Lover, a Hunter, and was Stiff. She was Isabel's lover when she died and is currently Laptop's lover. She also had formed a bond with Psychic Joris, an anima bear. She used stun, waterskip, and smokepop psycasts.

Yumi Rattray was also a recruit from a viking graveyard. She specialized in plants, research, and construction. She was an Academian and had Good Hygiene. Her Ex-lover was Furr and her best friend was Laptop. She often used stabilizing touch, blinding pulse and skip.

The production outpost was manned by Navis, Olena, Kayleigh, Claytron, and Friedrich. Scavenging was handled by Lindsay, Parinya, Jeffries, and Olenna (yes those are two different pawns). A factory outpost had Wolle, Yuuka, and West at the helm. And Roski, Aldwytch, and Zanthril managed a hunting outpost.

Despite everything they've faced, be it raids, illness, mechanoids, rabid hybrid monstrosities or just the completely ridiculous amount of insects, they all became friends, and built a thriving, safe community. No one will ever know what adventures await them and their faction, but rest assured they would have just as great as the rest.

The save itself was constructed to test out Vanilla Genetics Expanded and it lasted wayyyyy longer than I intended. While I wasn't originally going to build the Archocentipede I did end up working on it and while I didn't actually finish it, I did get very close and it just became a matter of waiting for paragons to finish. So I consider that a win in my book. Even if I do a little bit of cheating here and there and use some semi OP mods along the way. It's all about the fun factor to me and challenge isn't as big of a deal to me. Overall, I had a lot of fun with this run and I hope my terrible memory doesn't fail me and I'll remember some of it. If not, well that's what this post is for.

If you're interested or have any questions about any of the mods I've used for it feel free to ask, as well as anything else.

Who's cuter, thrumbo calves or cuterpillars? I can't decide, but I am very glad I have them both in my colony.

Also, bonus doodle of mama and baby thrumbo, just because <3

I am playing Rimworld because I have the flu and lost my voice. :( 

I just wanted to curl up, build a nice comfy colony, and draw. So that’s what I’m doing.

Here are some sketches of the goings-on in my colony at the moment. Lots of shenanigans happening. Taming two thrumbos has undoubtedly made me feel better, definitely recommend if you’re feeling unwell. Irwin is best boy, and I love him dear.

Recruited a pair of impid raiders, a very sad and sorry-for-himself lad named Nehachrach Kaznove (Kaz for short), and a kind of scary lady named Farov Fovnath, or...

Fafo :)

They became best friends in prison, which I thought was cute, but now that they're actually colonists, they have spiralled into a loop of friend-zoning each other and getting upset about it. It's very amusing. Never change, Rimworld.

I have played over 1000 hours of this game, and let me tell you, I have never been so stressed by a notification. I've never had a Rimworld baby!!

We gathered basically-a-Wookiee Kawoo, the expectant mother, and brought her to the hospital with her husband, Andrei the lizard man, and Dr Brennan.

Yes, I'm excited too, Andrei, but I think perhaps the party could wait until after your wife has had the baby.

I did not know I could hold my breath for so long. Phew. Welcome to the world, new yttakin/saurid hybrid baby.

Well, he's definitely his father's son. We'll name him Andrew because it sounds a bit like Andrei, his dad, but call him Andy for short. Happy birthday, Andy!

Everyone is exhausted after that but also happy with the results. Dad Andrei and Baby Andy have gone back to their room to sleep off the excitement while Mum Kawoo spends the night in the hospital.

Our colony's original two thrumbos, Pharaoh and Brandi, came to visit Baby Andy. They're bonded to Kawoo and like to follow her around, so I like to think they're sort of like Andy's new auntie and uncle.

You've heard of the human-child-raised-by-wolves trope, now get ready for the half-wookiee-half-reptillian-humanoid-partially-raised-by-thrumbos story you never knew you needed!

We have a baby thrumbo!!

This is it - the moment that finally motivated me to post about Rimworld on tumblr.

This fellow tamed a Thrumbo and immediately formed a bond with it.

The last time Thrumbos came by, I had hoped to tame a male and a female so we could have some adorable little baby thrumbos in the future. However, Levi, one of the two pawns with inspired taming at the time, wasn't skilled enough with animals. He stayed up late several nights in a row studying books about animals, but right as he reached a high enough skill level the thrumbos wandered off. So, the one thrumbo that was tamed was later sold. :(

That meant Levi was ready when another pack wandered by today, though! Not only did he tame it, he immediately bonded with it and named it Virgil. I guess we can start hoping for some baby thrumbos soon?
