#he's the OG gale
Explore tagged Tumblr posts
Text
as a card-carrying member of the "started playing for astarion, inadvertently fell for gale" club it's really important to me that you all know that the appeal is NOT that gale is suave or cool. in fact it is literally the opposite. the worse he is at flirting the better. as he grows increasingly verbose i grow increasingly horny. every time he makes an awful pun my heart flutters. he talks about his ex while we're actively on a date and i'm like wow! i can't not fuck him
#when i met him i said out loud 'oh no. he's a NERD'#and i fell in love with him instantly#baldurs gate 3#bg3#gale dekarios#gale of waterdeep#gale bg3#nat og

Guys that go bump in the night
(minorly inspired by @karniss-bg3 's response to this ask)
#bg3#astarion#rhylolin/lobo (oc)#kar'niss#drider#baldurs gate 3#driftoodles#alternative titles thst were suggested have been: the monster mash; two charlatan party crashers and their plus one#a drider a lycanthrope and a vampire walk into a bar#etc etc etc i could keep going#i imagine this would be a post bg3 plot thing . dunno what trouble theyre getting into but#whatever theyre up to someones probably gonna have to bail them out. my moneys on gale#with how ive been sketching kar'niss ive been drawing him more emaciated during bg3 bc i noticed his abdomen wrinkles at the bottom which#is a trait of dehydration in arachnids. hes probs not eating very well in moonrise lmao. but i imagine lobo heres been taking p good care#of him. also i think karniss still isnt used to being complimented so every time anyone says he looks nice he throws a fit about it#arachnophobia#but yeah so i try to draw him with rounder n softer features if im drawing him doing smthn post bg3#anywayyys i have a big day tomorrow i wish i had more energy to put smthn neater out but. for now. woe drider#i actually planned on replying to the og ask with more refined doodles but i may do thst later shdkdnkd

Me starting another bg3 run where I will make virtually all the same decisions in mostly the same order as if there isn't different branching paths
#the horrifying idea of things going differently if i choose something different#my ass sitting here wanting other content for it as if i'm not actively refusing to make the choices to get other content#i've still only romanced astarion bro#i had my og. the EXACT copy of my og but durge this time.#began a karlach run to romance wyll and am still in early act 1 so nothing will happen for a long ass time#and i left that because i missed my paladin. the party feels incomplete without them bro#started a rogue/fighter run of one of my ocs retrofitted into the game.#but also am incapable of staying true to the character cause i'll miss stuff if i do and i need to do EVERYTHING explore EVERYWHERE#nearly couldn't get over the hurdle of having no strength and no speak with animals (so karlach and wyll gotta speak to critters)#then just started a sorcerer to try to really push myself to branch out. but all it did was reaffirm that being a spell caster sucks#no jump cause no strength no health no armour no decent melee. like motherfucker pick a struggle#luckily that oc is into music so sorcerer-bard here we come#but every single one of these bitches is good aligned#(and anything i SHOULD do different i don't cause there's still different varoeties of good but alas)#still haven't romanced another party member (but that's not ENTIRELY my fault!!!!)#my og/og durge was the same person i couldn't just romance someone else. they got with astarion i don't make the rules#karlach WILL romance wyll if i ever get farther in#my rogue/fighter oc is heading the baldur's gate for his boyfriend and they have an open relationship so he COULD fuck other people#alas he would never due to his own issues#BUT THIS WILL CHANGE#my sorcerer/bard (who is the boyfriend of the rogue. just imagining the plot as if he was on the adventure or rogue was in baldur's gate)#and he WOULD fuck other people no strings attached#so my goal is to fuck all potentially non-monogamous party members#so lae'zel shadowheart astarion#wyll is a slow burn so that's emotional depth we wouldn't put in#gale is king or monogamy (plus him and this character together would make the rogur pass the fuck out)#karlach is complicated because of the no touch thing? hard to say how much emotional depth ends up required there#meanwhile shadowheart has mentioned she does no strings attached hook-ups#lae'zel propositions you ten seconds in for a good tumble#and from romancing astarion i know fucking the first time seems like it'll just be casual hook up time and i needn't go further

I recently learned that the companions in BG3 can get Volo's eye, so now I've acquired the task of determining
a) who would look coolest with the eye
and
b) who is dumb enough and desperate enough to actually sit through the extraction
#harder than you'd think! like for example#astarion would look killer with it but he loves his tadpole so he has zero incentive#while karlach to me has a very 'if it works it works' attitude and is willing to try anything but her og eyes look cooler#i wouldn't be surprised if wyll can't even do it bc that would just. fully blind him lmao#and gale knows better i think#lae'zel also seems like a prime candidate of looking cool + desperation but she's hell bent on the creche as of right now#so.... shadowheart maybe?#will report back#marie plays bg3

Fellas, is it gay to love the concept/trope of a supernatural hunger for something morally grey or wrong?
The inner conflict of wanting to get rid of the pain, feeling like you're starving, but knowing that to do so you have to cross every line you swore never to cross. Having to push loved ones away for the sake of their safety when all you want is to hold them. Picking between self destruction and survival, right and wrong, when every action is some shade of grey. Being called a monster when the people who trusted you find out who you are, what you have done, and not protesting in response because they're right, aren't they?
#og leo post#i love vampires and werewolves and supernatural 'addictions'#i love insatiable needs#this is about bg3 and also about tma#i am enjoying gale's story if you couldn't tell.#and astarion's. But im bad at being chaotic enough to get him to like me and i keep accidentally saying stuff he disapproves of#this trope is top tier. seriously#bg3#tma#so he's currently neutral toward tav.#goodnight folks!

My brain keeps coming up with crossovers like Lilia with food combos
#Funger squad abducted by the BG3 nautiloid what will they do (crimes probably)#Idk if it'd be more fun with characters from termina (culture shock via being in a medival setting)#or the OG squad (Culture shock via stuff being wayyyy less fucked up)#Also. First years being wormed on the nautiloid. Different magic systems (they might ask Gale or Shadowheart where their magestones are)#plus found family via being teens taken under the wing of the BG3 cast - Ace/Epel/Deuce and Karla h would amplify eachothers gremlin energy#Jack would look up to Wyll and Lae'zel and ask for combat tips. Halsin too actually! He might get mistaken for a druid as well#Sebek getting all loud and supportive of Wyll in his lil tsundere way by shouting about how horns are considered regal in biar valley and#a symbol of safety due to it being a feature held by members of their royal family.#Astarion may assume Deuce or Epel would be easy prey when he wants a midnight snack only to be met by Epel's UM/a caudron to the head lmao#I think I just like it when lil ragtag groups collide lol

Why are people saying that Tara and Chad are the best Scream couple since Gale and Dewey. That's a very bold claim. Also don't kill me for this but I'd argue that Gale and Dewey aren't all that great of a couple to begin with
#do they love each other? of course. more than almost anything. but that doesn't mean they're healthy#I think that Gale and Dewey are two people who have a shared traumatic experience (well. experiences) that they bonded over#other than that they don't really have much in common#like cmon people they're divorced for a reason#and as for Tara and Chad: I'm not sure she likes him as much as he likes her#it kinda just feels like she's self destructing and trying to distract herself#and he's the safest option#idk that's just my take#Tara tag#horror tag#og fandom post tag

Did not like Gale at first but he is growing on me.
Solely for the reason that every time Gale describes the tadpoles my brother just looks at the screen like this
#we've pulled that wizard nerd out of the purple rock butthole twice now for two separate campaigns#and both times my brother has been sooooooo disgusted by the way Gale#talks about the worm in your “ocular region”#its so fucking funny#he's a pretentious wizard nerd#but he likes cats and is handsome#and he grosses my brother out :)#so...#mahalangel og#bdg3

And as if 3 durges weren't enough, I just created a Tav. Who is a lil guy with one of the most fucked up origins ever. Also Myrkul is kind of his stepdad???
And he is also dead. My new lil guy, not Myrkul (tho Myrkul too).
Anyway, his name is Mort (Mortimer) and he was stillborn of a very powerful wizard lady who JUST lost her husband to a freak magic incident before.
She kind of pulled Ketheric+Mayrina and refused to accept what her baby is dead.
She turned into a lil over the top Myrkul worshipper who called herself "A bride of Myrkul" and brought her baby back by unnatural means.
Which makes Mort both immortal and...uh. Dead. He is like Isobel but more fucked up. And have been this way for all of his (un)life.
#bg3#bg3 spoilers#tav: mort#avery.txt#baldurs gate 3#gale: i have to consume magic or this powerful magical artifact will blow up#mort: cool. i need to practice and obsorb necromancy or I'll start to rot :) Literally. i am 100% made of dead magic#gale: ....wtf how are you alive#mort: oh! I'm not. i was born dead. a real fun story actually#in this au mort was the og chosen of myrkul but he was killed prior the events of the game and had to...pull himself back together.#it took time#also in this au durge does not exist (was killed by orin long time ago) and so mort and gortash were og schemers of the absolute plan#mort also knew gortash since karlach was still around and knew her too. they were good friend#and then one day he came over and gortash was like: i sold karlach#mort: dude you did THAT???#enver: sold her. to zariel ;)#mort: you sick fuck#they have childhood friends vibes even tho mort is over 100 years old bc duh. necromancy#ne doesn't age he kind of.#pushes his body to grow with dark magic#wicked thing

playing bg3 on release with no major spoilers was truly a privilege (I think?)
honestly feel like I learn new things everyday and wonder how much truth there is to certain statements
seems like early access was madness
#text#did they really add fan content? did the fans opinions sway that much?#I would have NEVER survived the gale and wyll hate they are my favorites#I know about the bing bong thing (who cares)#lol jk#was the astral sex scene really inspired by a fan art like is that real#why did they make lae’zel nicer that I did notice that#og karlach design was an L for Larian#that Swen Sven ikea fuckwad who said he dumbed down shadowheart and thinks killing gale is best ending is enemy no 1#count yo days if you ever come to the Deep South Straight Outta Waterdeep I would sleep with one eye open

Gale: I've got this, love
#galetav#gale x tav#tav x gale#gale dekarios#gale of waterdeep#gale#tav#oliver#my posts#bg3#the real sorc x wizard dynamic lmao#my og sorc (sage) tav as a hireling in the background: *pretends he does not see*#the screenshots are old but they're exactly what happened lmao#first and only roll on both characters#since this was honour mode and I wasn't going to waste inspirations on this of all things

When your oc redesign is slowly just starting to look like Gale from BG3
#I’ve never played this game but I somehow know what he looks like#and this man either looks like him or Aragorn#i won’t complain but just know that’s a far jump from his original shape#ocs#og character#oc#oc art#oc design#bg3#bg3 gale#baulders gate 3

Tusk loves music apparently
#he literally started jumping up and down#but i wasn't recording!!! AGAIN#and then he just settled for wiggling his butt for the rest of the song#so yeah apparently you should just walk around#and play music for everyone#go serenade you a little piggy#alfira will also stop what she's doing to do duets with you#also in today's druid's grove concert shenanigans#an npc loved ari's performance so much he threw some gold to tip her#but gale was in the way#so it smacked him in the head#and took off several hit points#grey's bg3 tag#bg3 posting#ari's og campaign

would reblog that main party poll but the honest answer is “shadowheart + whoever the fuck else”
#she is síle’s one non negotiable#usually also drags astarion around because he’s the only one who understands she’s hilarious#(100 approval halfway through act i)#(this should make her reassess her life. it doesn’t.)#third is always plot reserved like#wyll for all things grove & risen road / lae’zel for crèche (usually make that a girls’ day out tbh) / gale for moonrise & gauntlet etc#and the city is a free for all.#(usually revert to the OG Three for nostalgia for the Climactic Moments in every act though)

I really have been enjoying balders gate now infact it's for sure blossomed into a hyper fixation which sucks Because I'm very tired at work these days 😂😂😂
I picked gale because I really liked him in the early access stuff and now I'm a Lil :T
Im sticking with it! He will love my paladin yet.
But geez if he could actually give me the time of day.
#balders gate 3#gale of waterdeep#He's my highest approval rating#And we haven't even kissed#Or held hands#We did a magic thing together which was the equivalent of those like jc penny photos of a throuple#Since the weave is kind of his og girlfriend#Anyway
