I could tell you all about my vampire social workers
Everyone knows "hold person" for a reason
Untethering days are a mixed bag to put it mildly

*Knows karlach won't let them hug so surprise attack hug* "Let me hug you!"
Karlach squeals as Tav ambushes her with a hug. The tiefling instinctively wraps her arms tightly around their waist, and spins on the spot as she hugs them tightly.

Isn't she cute? I'm looking for rp partners who could give any BALDUR'S GATE 3 CHARACTER against my dearest Nienna here. She's a Celestial Warlock, specialized in healing magic and would appreciate some teammates to develop meaningful relationships with.
Hi! I'm Psyche (30s, -3 GMT, they/them) and I would love to find partners in the Forgotten Realms to roleplay with through discord. In return, I could write both Gale Dekarios and Astarion Ancunín for any character of your choosing.

Ok so here's what I'm really really craving
Bloodweave reincarnation rp
Yes I'm sure this has been overdone but shhhh shhh shhh
Good ending Gale and unascended Astarion. Together, happy, great. Well, eventually, Gale passes (because human) and obviously, Astarion is upset. But not overly concerned. He knows death isn't final. It takes a long time, but then one day, he feels that pull again, and he recognizes it.
The fiest time is rocky. Astarion is hesitant. Should he attempt to interact with this person? This person might have Gale's soul, but they're not really Gale. Not his Gale anyway. They won't remember, it won't be the same. And yet they do end up interacting. And over time those memories do come back and they fall in love again.
Astarion makes a promise to find Gale every time he comes back and he does so over and over again. Happy to hear about what new adventure his partner has been on.
Except in this latest reincarnation for some reason the magic words don't work or at the very least don't initially seem to. Astarion repeats the process as he has many times before and is already acting like things are back to normal.
"Just once, can't you be reborn as something with a longer lifespan? This little game of hide and seek we always do really does eat into our time together."
"Do I know you?" There is no trace of recognition in his eyes.
"Oh, oh shit. This isn't normally how this goes."
He missed one

"Karlaaaach!!"
She hears Astarion's yell from the camp, sounding alarmed and horrified. When she runs closer...
[Animal Handling check: fail]
... She sees Scratch on top of the vampire's chest, licking his face enthusiastically as Astarion struggles to push the furry animal off. "Help get this mutt off me!"
"awww, why would I do that? Scratch just wants to give you some love" A sweet smile is plastered on karlach's face at the scene.

hiya!! indulgently posting a rp search ad looking for anyone who is interested in writing gale dekarios from baldur’s gate 3 against an original character/tav (half elven female druid)! and i would be more than happy to write a canon bg3 companion (or any oc idea you have should that be preferable!) against your original character in a multi-muse rp on discord in return (aka playing multiple characters between just the two of us!) if interested, IM me or like this post and i’ll reach out to you! some additional details for what i'm looking for are under the cut!
i (she/her) am 28, so i'd prefer my rp partners to be at least 21+!
i prefer to write f/f, m/f, and nb relationships
i am happy to write or headcanon nsfw content but prefer to have a rich multi-muse experience containing all kinds of plotting, themes, and otherwise! i am also more than happy to use a fade to black method, or a mix of both! partner comfort before all else!
additionally, i prefer shorter replies to novella replies! especially in a multi-muse setting, longer replies can get cumbersome or overwhelming, particularly in threads that have all our characters in them. keeping replies to around 1-2 paragraphs (or less, i'm totally fine if you want to reply with just dialogue if the moment calls for it!! i am also known to go over/match my partner if we're writing a particularly important thread and it gets lengthy because of that 😂 im just here to have fun!) tends to help keep the rp progressing better in my experience! quality over quantity!
i am 100% ready to be invested in your original character and the canon character or oc you'd like me to write against them! i want you to have fun and indulge and just have a blast exploring backstories, relationships, side plots, and all the rest! i hope to see the same interest and attention in my partners as well, please don't reach out if you're only wanting to double to get the ship you want and don't genuinely have any interest in writing the other ship.
lastly, some themes i prefer to avoid in rp include: explicit themes of sexual abuse/assault, child abuse, animal abuse, slavery, and nsfw content that is age inappropriate or unclean

We Don't Talk About Abdel: the ""Canon"" Gorion's Ward and Why I Hate Him
If you've only played Baldur's Gate 3 you may have heard of Abdel Adrian. The Hero of Baldur's Gate, late Grand Duke, and Bhaalspawn who died, badly.
There is, unfortunately a lot you might not know. Spoilers ahead for the original Baldur's Gate, Baldur's Gate 2: Shadows of Amn, and Baldur's Gate 2: Throne of Bhaal. And their shitty novelizations you should not read.
Your choices matter. Allegedly.
There are many ways to handle continuity in a series of choice-heavy RPGs with custom main characters. There's the approach the original Fallout games did, by setting the second installment long enough after the first, that your player character can be vaguely alluded to without much friction. There's the Bioware approach, of uploading your save data from previous games to slightly effect the world in the next one. And then there's the Baldur's Gate series, which splits the difference and makes the worst of both worlds: a century has past and there's no cheeky vagueness to transplant your own player character as the Hero of Baldur's Gate. It is Abdel Adrian's world and we are merely living in it.
I'd argue there's one thing that very clearly separates a Commander Shepherd from an Abdel Adrian, and that's serving a role in a game that lines up with the story being told.
What's the deal with Bhaalspawn?
I'd like to get one thing out of the way first. Bhaalspawn =/= The Dark Urge. I only mention this because I've seen some people assume all Bhaalspawn operate on the "sleeper cell turbo murderer" framework that the DU does. The majority of the first Baldur's Gate game, the player character themself doesn't know they're in any way unusual. You get ominous dream sequences as the story progresses, up until the Big Reveal.
At which point, one of the themes reveals itself: nature versus nurture. Your PC is a 20-something year old young adult who lived inside a walled town, and had their entire support system torn away the second they left. Unless you've chosen to roleplay that way, they may not have ever felt a particular inclination towards violence. This is in stark contrast with Big Bad, your half-brother Sarevok whose upbringing was filled with struggle and violence.
It's even more apparent in Throne of Bhaal, when you're confronted with it outright: what if your places had been switched? Maybe you would've committed even more atrocities than your half-brother.
We now have to talk about the books. Unfortunately. Canonically the novelization of Baldur's Gate is the origin of Abdel Adrian. He is Philip Athans' brainchild and there's fuck all we can do about it. Unless I get a word of god response from Wizards of the Coast or story beats are directly contradicted in other BG-related media that has come out since, I am treating the events of the books as canon.
A narrative treadmill of a character arc
The game starts out in relatively bog-standard hero's journey fashion. It's morning in Candlekeep, you're leaving home for the very first time with your adoptive dad, and he's been very cagey about the details other than "we need to leave, I'll explain later."
Abdel Adrian, has already left Candlekeep at the start of the novel. He's already in his mid-twenties, and has been traveling the Sword Coast as a sword-for-hire for nearly a decade (presumably cornering the child soldier market). He also really likes killing people, hence his line of work. The big inciting incident with Gorion happens because he sent Abdel a letter about needing to talk, at which point Sarevok shows up, kills Gorion, who tells Abdel to seek out Jahiera and Khalid with his dying breath.
I'll break down my issues with this point by point. -Abdel is very clearly not a level 1 character. Perhaps this is a petty point, but isn't half the fun of this style of fantasy story watching the protagonist grow in skill, until they can eventually face off against the seemingly indomitable Big Bad? Spoiler: Abdel is already at the peak of his Swordsmanship Power™ and we will not see any growth on that front.
-What are the stakes, actually? We went from "everything I know and love has been torn away from me. I'm a level 1 adventurer in a big, dangerous world and cannot go home." to "I'm a big tough fighterman with a penchant for murder who's going to avenge the father figure the book tell-not-shows you I cared about" Like my previous point, we have no baseline, no sense of what the main character has truly lost. I'm much less interested in watching someone start from the middle and fight their way to the top, than seeing someone from rock bottom getting there.
-His Bhaalspawn heritage manifests itself as murdergremlin tendencies. If you've not encountered a player with murdergremlin tendencies while playing a ttrpg, you've almost certainly heard horror stories about them. The guy who loves to escalate encounters into combat, who threatens and maims because "it's what my character would do" and often times view themselves as the main character.
If that sounds exhausting, this is the character whose head we're trapped inside. A guy whose two big motivators are murder and sex, whose external moral compass is his love interest (Jahiera deserved better). AND EVEN THEN by the end of the second book, the only growth he has experienced as a character is "maybe sometimes I won't murder everyone who makes me angry" when he just point-blank refuses to kill the antagonist of BG2. Oh, but not before he had sex with and violently murdered the other main antagonist who was also a woman.
"Okay the books are awful, but why be angry at Abdel?"
Because by virtue of WOTC continuing to use "Abdel Adrian" as THE Hero of Baldur's Gate and a canon character, those books are still canon. SOME elements had to be retconned for being incongruent with the games (did I mention in the first novel Abdel leaves Khalid to die during a fight in the first novel?) but otherwise? I've seen no revisions to his base character. And now every piece of Baldur's Gate media is built on this shitty, rotten foundation.
Are these points somewhat petty? Yes! Either Wizards should've come up with an entirely new stand-in Bhaalspawn to wash the shit taste of those novelizations out of everyone's mouths, or they should've written future material to only vaguely allude to BG 1&2's protagonist. The Bhaalspawn saga was wrapped up perfectly fine in Throne of Bhaal. Either he should've stayed dead with Cyric taking on his domain, or find another way to bring him back. Abdel Adrian having .0001% Bhaal Juice still in his blood and thus turning into The Slayer is a "Somehow, Palpatine returned" way of doing it.
On the off chance anyone is morbidly curious about the terrible novels, me and some pals did a live-reading not too long ago. If this post gets 100 notes I will make a Greatest Hits compilation of terrible moments. Spoiler: one of them includes the "spider in her cleavage" scene.

CRPG stands for Classic RolePlaying Game btw, and is the generally used term for video games such as Baldur's Gate, Fallout, Dragon Age, Disco Elysium, etc.
