#carly plays bg3

[arlathen]

appreciate larian's commitment to giving gnomes lore-accurate ridiculous names while also treating them like serious nuanced characters. guy named wulbren bongle will ask you to commit an act of domestic terrorism and you don't even giggle at it.

ok i know you reblogged it 2 days ago but like, who cares... so the "give me a character and I'll break their ass down" thing: Lae'zel

Hey Carly! It's been a while since I last talked to you, hope all is well.

How I feel about this character

Love her! She's my fave female companion and her voice actor did an awesome job with her. I often say ghaik as an insult/reference between me and my friends that have played BG3 lol.

All the people I ship romantically with this character

I haven't played or watched a playthrough like this, but I think a Dragonborn!Tav is probably one of the more interesting relationship dynamics based on what I've seen.

My non-romantic OTP for this character

Lae'zel + happiness and with all her new companions would be ideal. I watched my bro get the ending where she can't come to camp and is off at war and I really hate that for her. I haven't figured out a way to both save my Tav and get her a good "freedom" ending so that she can join the others at the party.

My unpopular opinion about this character

Don't think I have one. I think we can all agree that she is a looks like she can kill you but is actually a cinnamon roll-type.

One thing I wish would happen / had happened with this character in canon.

Correct me if I am wrong, but let there be a good ending where she is not in another war/crisis and can be happy! Like, she came a long way with the events of the game and all the companions deserve a shot at the best ending without the expense of Tav turning into a freaking squid!

GIVE ME A CHARACTER and I’ll break their ass down:

location, sensation, turn on for carly AND stasia pls

Hi Macy! Thank you for inquiring about the ladies! I hope they suffice!

location — where do they like to have sex the most? would they ever have sex in a 'risky' place (ex. in the office, closet, public bathroom, etc)?

Carly is the one that likes the risker sex and doesn't have much of a 'favorite' place to have sex. Frankly it comes down to who she's with and the purpose of sex is (which more true in the og verse). Like in ff universe she really doesn't have a preference and at one point after fighting with WoL for the first time she and Zenos kinda just fucked not that far out from Rhalgar's Reach (so it was outside in the open) and forgot/didn't care that their contingent of soldiers were with them, which I mean is one way to celebrate a victory against the resistance. In her og universe purpose plays a big role because she'd rather not get her room and bed dirty if sex is being used to lure victims and she likes showing off so there is more public spaces like club bathrooms, offices, and living rooms, etc. If it is for pleasure then she does prefer home spaces with the backyard only really being an option if there's a pool/hot tub out there.

Stasia is much more on the romantic side of things. So her favorite and preferred location for sex is the bedroom. She'll have sex in offices and closets and what not but there's a certain amount of vulnerability that comes with it for her and at least in a bedroom there's more control in the situation as a whole. It is also a privacy thing as its no one's business who she's fucking not out of shame just legit no one but her and the person she's sleeping with are entitled to what goes on behind closed doors.

sensation — do any specific sensations turn them on? are they into hot wax? ice? tickling? specific textures? anything else not listed here?

Carly is a bit of anything goes in terms of textures and things to make sex interesting. She does prefer bites and the feeling of being held down. There's a sensuality that comes from bites, especially on the neck, and being held down comes more into play in the ff universe as it feels like a fight which gets the blood pumping. Which even taking into account bg3 for her I guess blood is a texture that's a turn on. There's a bathing of blood aspect in bg3 that I can see and while she's not for that in other universes she's still into fights and the feeling of some blood on her and her partner. So blood, yeah that's a texture that gets her going the most.

While Stasia is also a bit of an anything goes in terms of texture there isn't too much that's like a go to get her in the mood quickly one. She is much more into the slower and sensual sex so things related to that kind of vibe are the best. Things like silk, warm wax, lotions and oils, things that kind of enhance that lighter touching and are much more smooth. Like there is a reason she tends to have more female partners and its due to the fact that typically (in her experience at least) they have softer hands even if they are more labor workers.

turn on — what turns them on?

For Carly kisses and small bites on her neck is probably the fastest way to get her going. But I will say anything that shows her that you want her, you crave her, you can't get enough of her will turn her on and keep her turned on.

And if you couldn't tell already Stasia's turn ons are more in line with showing her that you worship her. You are privileged to be with her. You are listening to her and her needs or hell you know them already because this isn't the first time you've been together. She's also someone that enjoys good dirty talk from a smooth voice and said against her skin.

Which considering all of this its easy to wonder just how these two work in the bedroom and the answer is simply they listen to one another. Carly knows she's wanted by Stasia because the woman is already so selective, and makes it known what she wants and likes. And because Carly listens to her Stasia feels worshipped even with the bit of a rougher tone to the act but Stasia does like some control taken from her in sex and Carly despite being very obedient knows how to be in control still. Like both women being human makes it easier to communicate such things and so it works amazingly well in that state. When one's a vampire though in the og universe those two do have break ups every decade or so that can be dramatic, but that's more due to the fact that one of them is unable to feel anything outside of base animalistic instincts.

I WANT TO DANCE ... independent & selective ba/ldur's g/ate 3 companion oc. written by annie. sideblog to @publicabsent. rules & info under the cut. ... I WANNA GAZE AT THE STARS.

full rules are found on my main blog. basically don't be a snot rag & we'll be cool. it's likely there will be bg3 spoilers here, & while i have not progressed far (considering the device i was using to play cannot handle it & i'm downloading it on my new device as i type) i'm not afraid to spoil some things for myself, especially fixed plot points. i may only know the barest details, but you get it.

STATS:

name: annette carli race: half-elf (wood) class: druid (circle of spores) age: low twenties, quite young background: hermit [raised by a hag in seclusion, studied in her books deeply]

known spells: druidcraft, mending, infestation, guidance, speak with animals, healing word, entangle, heat metal, barkskin, moonbeam common/preferred wildshape forms: cat, ferret, fox, black bear, screech owl

THE STORY:

as far back as she can remember, annette has lived with her mother -- a powerful witch, bound by blood to the fey laws, nasty in disposition but charitable enough in her raising of the young half-elf girl. (annette never truly knows the extent of it, but her mother is of no blood relation -- a green hag, bound by a deal to care for the child that she'd been promised by a young man long ago, long before he ever thought of children.) a life of isolation, following rules of her mother, & being told the outside world lies, they hurt, they never could take care you the way i can, shapes the young girl's childhood & adolescence. the hag's aversion to beauty manifests itself into her crippling insecurity. annette learns the foundation of her druidic knowledge by sneaking to read some of the tamer books in the lair, learning simple things. her sneaking & the tension between her existence & her mother's practices came to a head, resulting in annette being deposited somewhere in the woods, unable to find her way home.

she learns much from simply surviving, growing in her druidic practices outside of a circle. her upbringing echoes into her fears of becoming like her mother & in her magic, leaning toward the mushrooms & the brambles instead of the herbs & flowers. she does, unfortunately, encounter the young lord everett mallory. he is everything mother warned her of -- a liar, looking for what he wants with no thought of how to earn it, impolite, trying to take what is not offered. it's her first wildshape: she panics, turns into a rabbit, & bounds away. thus we find her now, a lonely druid always running from & never moving to anything.

the main difference between her bg3 variation & general d&d is her being tadpoled & being a companion to tav. her personal quest would likely be either resolving her problems with everett or, if you feel daring, helping her realize that the hag was not her mother & maybe even dispatching the hag.

[arlathen]

every other party member: im cursed. im going to die. im owned by someone much more powerful than me. my days are numbered for one reason or another -- the tadpole is only the latest life threatening circumstance.

halsin: i like whittling ducks :)

[arlathen]

why'd they show astarion getting his guts rearranged by halsin when wyll is so clearly canonically in love with him.

[arlathen]

also when you ask gale to let u fuck halsin you do so (or can do so, I don't remember if there's another option) by being like "what do you think about introducing a third person to our relationship" and his first thought is "you want to have a baby??"

[arlathen]

the revelation that gale is party cook has made me start selecting my long rest ingredients like. chef. your ingredients tonight are three salamis. five lemons. a watermelon. a single boiled potato. horseradish. and a baguette. you have one hour. good luck.

[arlathen]

when karlach does her little idle dance/hops. like if u agree.

[arlathen]

congrats to the writers who wrote these item descriptions for being the funniest people alive

[arlathen]

i love having the upstairs of the elfsong as a camp but having everyone move in really makes you realize what an eclectic bunch you've collected. imagine everyone filing through the tavern and up the stairs. a cambion an aasimar a dog a random little kid and their cat. a dead-undead-lich-skeleton thing who may or may not be jergal.

[arlathen]

CANNOT get over the fashions in this game. look at her. pussy puss puss give em cunt cunt cunt ❣❣

[arlathen]

im so serious why didn't they include more sorc subclasses.

[arlathen]

brother idk what i was thinking running into the house of hope with marian and gale both loaded up on fire spells but Jesus fuck.

[arlathen]

man. do you ever walk up on what you know is a combat encounter and just go. I don't think I wanna be involved in this at all actually.

[arlathen]

in gales cutscene where he tells u about the orb and he gets on his whole knees and holds ur hand to his chest. brothers that awoke something sinful in me.
