Durge murder aura detected

This is Isyl, Amryl's sibling!

Originally my plan for Isyl was that Isyl [I haven't decided on pronouns lmao. Leave me alone. Isn't telling me what Isyl is. Isyl exists. Isyl is Durge jkjk ..... Isyl's pronouns are Cleric [of Lathander]!] was that Isyl was either raised by an off-shoot of lawful good/neutral Duerges that learned about Lathander [family members maybe?] or kidnapped by one, so basically kinda cult? BUT THEN I got the idea of Isyl was stolen by the Society of Brilliance.

But then I got this great idea of testing Isyl out as a durge, and now here we are. OG Isyl was very very sweet, despite loss of memories [or maybe because of] -- but duerge's have too many good asshole responses so this might change. IDK we shall see. I haven't played Isyl as much after I decided to shuffle my polyam plans from Isyl to Amryl.

I have set a goal for how many chapters I want act 1 to be. Even figured out how much smut to put in it. Now I just have to write it all hahha

[astarionsknife]

My wife and I have been discussing Ascended Astarion and how the fandom seems to view him (since she recently ascended him in her durge run) and here are some main points:

He's pretty cringe and edgy

He seems to have lost braincells along with his soul

He's different than a true vampire, so we can't fully base all his actions on that lore

Outside of bg3 there seems to be no records on what an ascended vampire is in DND lore (from what we've found)

Even so, for true vampires it says that their love turns into obsession (debatable to us if this is a good or bad thing. We love obsession)

He does turn you into a vampire and we're confused as to how people seem to think he doesn't (he bites you and let's you drink his blood)

People are allowed to love AA

My rancid blood whispers to me: kill, kill, and kill again. My ruined body yearns to reap death in this world, and when this foul Urge calls, it possesses my whole being. Injured beyond repair, I know nothing besides this: I must resist the Dark Urge, lest it consume my mind. I must discover who I was, and what happened to me. Before my twitching knife-hand writes a tragedy in blood.

Imagine you’re romancing karlach as the dark urge and then you go to gortash’s coronation:

“My nearest and dearest”

[abaddonoblack]

I can't save anything in bg3 (at the time of fighting katharic(?) thorm) Im trying everything and I mean EVERYTHING I already uninstalled and installed it (which took almost 4h) I'm trying to fix the files with what larian studio recommended but nothing works.

I feel like I'm going to cry. Rn I'm trying one of the last options and I have no clue what will I do if it won't be right.

ReRe: Sexuality, labeling theory, and accepting your own ignorance in BG3 fandom

One thing I have learned in my life is to,well, learn. Discourse over companion sexuality surged on Twitter at a time I just happened to be on yesterday. As I preached my own QT about the characters being playersexual, I happened upon a tweet about this word being bi/pan phibic due to its history.

While I was confused, I took my post down and decided to find out the root instead. I began my usual route: asking questions and running a search on google. To me at a surface understanding, the term playersexual encompassed the gambit of all sexualities-allowing the player character (PC) to choose whomever they wish to romance. For those who are unfamiliar- BG3 is a dnd set CRPG where the PC is able to engage in romantic interactions. The more special part of BG3 is that these romances can play a substantial part in the overall story of your playthrough. And as most of the western hemishphere probably knows the name Astarion, it suffices to say that these companions and possible romances are important to the playerbase. Though the numbers aren't in yet, there is a sizeable chunk of queer persons involved in the BG3 fandom and it only takes a cursory glance at twitter in order to realize that. And of course, representation of queer romances plays into that. So, while I thought the term would resonate with people of the freedom to choose, the term "player -sexual" as Larian devs described the companions, only druged up old wounds. And I was very, very ignorant on this. From my conversations, I learned that the term was coined in the time of Dragon Age 2 by a confirmed biphobic dev in response to fans praising bisexual characters. As well, it was brought to my attention by my mutual Mish that Larian winning awards for inclusivity, while also using this term, left people feeling like the devs were once again erasing the canon sexuality of pansexuals. For context, Niel Newbon spoke in response to a question that Astarion is pansexual. This can be confirmed in game by Lae'zel possibly sleeping with Astarion during the night of the Tiefling party. The companions aren't just sleeping with any PC no matter what, but with other NPCs as well. Once my moot on twitter, mon, pointed this out-it suddenly made sense. I was wrong. There are some more conversations surrounding this topic I would love to expand on later, but for the point of this already being long I will save it. At first, I thought the problem of labels was solved by the term playersexual, but it turns out that label was stuck on to cover sexualities and their validity. Ignorance is often used as an insult; a euphamism for stup[id. However, ignorance in itself is nuetral. It is neither good nor bad until the option to learn is put forth, and the ignorant make a choice to learn or not. Unfortunately, most cause of discourse is rooted in willful ignorance, or refusing to acknoowledge and understand knowledge when presented. I don't use the words attached to phobics or isms without careful consideration. In this instance I do believe the word playersexual to be pan or bi phobic due to its history. I do hope that Larians reconsiders this word in the future. I can't win every war, but I can learn which wars to fight with not being afraid to be wrong and learn different. thank you <3

Hey, hi, hello! How are you? Hope your cat is getting better and I hope your first week back has been alright. I don't know if you remember me from your ER blog about the request of what would happen if Dreamers firends got basically Isekaied into the Lands Between.

Now, this is your work and your aus, this is all up to you but just humor me for a bit wont ya? I've been thinking about the Dreamer au for a bit now and I haven't been exactly sure to write my thoughts down, but hear me out. We know that, in the Dreamer AU has powers but we don't know the exact details of it (not to my knowledge) and we know that the Shattering really went down after Godwyns death and Dreamer vanished and leaving, right?

Now we have Reader, whatever we're gonna call them getting Isekaied into Feyruin and trying to find a way home. What if Dreamer and Reader are the same character? Dreamer in BG3?  I personally think it wouldn't be off the table, they did went into the Lands Between twice, what stops them being able to basically get to BG3? 👀👀👀

And what if, once the Tadpole gang, plus Druge Tav gets close enough to our lovely Reader, they get some HEAVY lore and backstory from us. What if, when Dreamer comes back to the Lands Between they accidentally brought their party along? Tables turning for the rest of the party.

👀👀👀👀👀👀

But what do you think? Sorry if this has been stupidly long or if it made no sense, but I just wanted to give this idea out to you. If you'd like, I have more ideas I wanna ask and talk about. I have a sea of ideas 🥰

Have a good morning, afternoon, evening and night!

So personally, I don't think I'll mix aus, just because I don't want people to think that they have to read my other stuff to enjoy this, since not everyone might be interested in Elden Ring.

However, if you have nay other ideas relating to au, I'd love to hear them :).
