#still thinking of this bg3 quote from a random gith npc “i love fighting with daggers. it’s so personal”

Howdy!

30 and 4 please :D

4. What hobbies does your Tav have? How did they acquire these interests?

thanks for asking! honestly i think every tavish's hobby is somehow knives/daggers/swords related lol. most of his camp leisure activites come down to throwing daggers, sharpening blades, going through his vast knife collection, practicing sword techniques with lae’zel, doing scary (to other people, not him) chaotic tricks like stabbing back and forth between his fingers with a knife, etc

he just really likes how tangible they feel in hands, how powerful and quick and capable wielding them makes him feel. he had to learn how to fight as a street urchin and now strongly associates knives/daggers with safety (long story short he wasn't raised by other githyanki and the circumstances of how exactly this happened still aren't completely clear to him). swords didn't work for tavish at first though (he used to think they're kinda slow and clunky and require a totally different skillset) but lae'zel changed his mind completely and now tavish loves sword fighting too. that's how i explain his rogue/fighter multiclass to myself lol

30. What are your Tav’s intentions/goals after the end of the game?

oh i don't know yet! i haven't finished the game. he's a restless type though, he'll definitely find new adventures and new things to experience in the wild
