"It's just one bonus comic!" I say, "how many panels could it be, 4?"
I gotta stop lying to myself and pretending I'm capable of doing short follow up comics lmao. There'll be a part 3 to this eventually, it just won't be quite as quick as this one was
Part 1 • Next Part

— We got you, brother.
Hands dragging Rolan down symbolize his fears and the threats he faces every day. He risks to succumb to this stance and let it swallow him. And he probably would have given up if not for his siblings who believe in him, who rely on him and who help him survive all the challenges
It’s my entry for Rolan competition on twt:

“You were a friend when we needed it, and we won’t forget that. Should you ever need it, you have family in Baldur’s Gate.” - Zevlor

The tower has a new master so it's time to clean house! I'm sure NOTHING will go wrong by going full Fantasia on it.

Facts about Rolan you might have missed, while you were busy saving the world
Spoilers for Baldur’s Gate 3 below!
Here’s a collection of some Rolan facts you may have missed during your playthrough. (These are all from memory, so I will edit this later with sources and exact quotes.)
He is not related by blood to Cal and Lia - You can find this information by speaking with his corpse. All three of them consider each other family, but Rolan seems to hold some insecurities about his position with his siblings. In the same conversation, he mentions having “no one” when asked if he has family and that he identifies as “Rolan, just Rolan” - potentially implying that he’s been abandoned or rejected by his blood family, if they’re alive.
Cal considers Rolan an older brother - If Rolan dies during his rescue attempt in Act 2, Cal confesses that Rolan is his “older brother” and “the person he looks up to the most”.
Rolan loves organizing things - He has overhead dialogue with his siblings where he jokes about wanting an organized, color-coded sock drawer.
You can try to convince Rolan to leave his siblings behind at the grove - Try to convince him to leave Lia behind, and he will admit she’s a pain sometimes, but he could never leave her, not even for his prestigious apprenticeship.
Rolan’s diary changes depending on if his siblings live or die - Self-explanatory. He obviously becomes much more depressed and angry if you fail to save his siblings.
Rolan and his siblings have known each other since Cal was at least eight - They have overhead dialogue where Cal mentions that, when he was eight, Rolan once conjured a cat for him, only for him to find out it was made of fire.
It’s implied that Rolan, Cal, and Lia share a mother figure - If Lia dies, Cal has dialogue with Rolan about throwing a party in memorial for her, “like [they] did for mum”.
Rolan, Cal, and Lia have unique dialogue depending on which of them die - This is self-explanatory, but you can see most of the scenes here. He also appears to have unique dialogue coded in act 3 depending on if he’s angry with you or not (if you disrespected Cal and Lia’s memories by calling them Carl and Liam), but I haven’t been able to trigger it yet.
https://twitter.com/gimblebock/status/1705080072489574619?s=46&t=ZnMav_9KejiNOZkZPad0Mg
Lorroakan hates to admit it, but Rolan is more powerful than him - Speak with Lorroakan’s corpse after killing him and having Rolan side with you. He will begrudgingly admit that his apprentice is more powerful than him. Side note, it can be implied that Lorroakan never calls Rolan by his name, as he defaults to “tiefling” or “boy” in their few interactions.
If Rolan has a high enough initiative in the Lorroakan fight, he will use Thunderwave to shove Lorroakan off the tower. Peak revenge.
Some of Rolan’s spells have his name in front of them (Rolan’s Thunderwave, Rolan’s Mage Armor) - Some people have headcannoned this as meaning he had to learn magic by himself, therefore being a Sorcerer. Considering his clothes are a unique color combination for the Sorcerer robes, it raises more than a few questions
Rolan always carries Lorroakan’s letter on him - This one always makes me so sad, pointed out by @sadwizardlover. Throughout the game, the one thing Rolan always carries on his person is the written response from Lorroakan to his letter, posted below.
Lorroakan also beats Rolan up😭 He'll only admit this if Lorroakan's dead though
That’s all! If anyone has any more to add to this list, shoot me an ask✨💞

Ten facts about the tiefling refugees that you may not know, from the dialogue files (as of Patch 7)
Arabella is nine years old, per Zevlor if she dies. (Edit: Per Arabella's own speak with dead, she's nine and a half. As anyone who has dealt w kids knows, that half MATTERS!)
Danis and Bex want to name their cat Geoffrey, per a dialogue with a Githyanki Tav (who may get cats and gnomes confused)
Okta (the cook) has unique dialogue if you steal her cauldron.
Speaking of: Ikaron is Okta's son (in files for the goblin attack, the pair are referred to as "ChefAndSon" respectively)
Doni (the grunting kid) does not have a single line of traditional dialogue - but DOES have a line with Detect Thoughts ("Got to keep watch... but it's so bright and noisy here. Want to be back in the hideout")
If Cal and Rolan both die but Lia survives in Act 2, there are no fewer than four dialogue lines, ambients, or devnotes suggesting Lia plans to imminently kill herself. Despite arguing with her siblings the loudest, she is the one who takes losing the others hardest - even moreso than Rolan. Rolan endures to Lorroakan but goes bad, while Cal just...shuts down. But Lia plans to walk off into the shadows and let them claim her. She does not appear in Act 3 in this scenario. (See also: Why Rolan, Cal, and Lia won't truly have their happy ending unless they split up post-game)
Zorru survives to Act 3 by having escaped AFTER being captured alongside Lia/Cal/Danis/Lakrissa. Given this means he survived the Absolute's forces AND the Shadow Curse (unprotected) AND the Githyanki, this makes Zorru just about the luckiest low level NPC in the game
Alfira, a tiefling bard of at least moderate skill and knowledge, knows next to no songs or stories featuring tiefling heroes, just ones with tiefling villains, in Act 1. (A good reason to convince her to write a song about tieflings at the party!)
During the Goblin Battle, Memnos prays to no fewer than four gods - in order, Torm (for courage), Helm (protection), Tymora (Good fortune), and Kelemvor (for mercy, as god of the dead)
The devnote for the famous 'Don't be greedy' line is 'Slight smile - half joking'. Yes, dear reader, Rolan is flirting with you or teasing you just a tiny little bit.

Well this took ages. I wanted to get one more page done for this but the next page has uh... 14 characters across the panels and I'm going to be away for 4 days. So a smaller update, but the next one shouldn't take almost 2 months.
Part 1 • Previous Part
Full page format under the cut as always:
#There are two me's inside me#One is screaming that doing tones was an awful idea because they take forever#The other is going “yea but..... it looks cool so...”#Unfortunately the second me is right so here we are#baldur's gate 3#bg3#bg3 comic#rolan x tav#tav x rolan#rolan x ember#bg3 astarion#bg3 gale#bg3 wyll#rolan#bg3 rolan#bg3 cal#bg3 lia#my tav#sharky's tav#tav: ember#oc: ember#sharky art
