Fill The Blanks - Vanquish's companion quest

Wrote up briefly (lol) one of the ideas I had for Vanquish's quest if she was a companion. Revolving around her Patron(s), her messed up memory, mind, and body.

General 1, 9, and 10 + Romance 4 for Glim, if you’d like!

I'm having a GREAT time with this, so thank you!

Where can Glim be recruited?

She's wheedled her way into the adventurers in the crypt, so if you don't investigate there you can miss her and Withers. She comes out of hiding when you've killed the others, and you can decide whether to let her tag along or kill her then.

Does Glim have an escalating conflicts with one of the other companions, like Lae'zel and Shadowheart's knife-fight?

YES, with Astarion. He treats her as if she's lesser (this is canon-influenced guys, he's got some shitty things to say about Gnomes.) It comes to a head when he talks about whether gnomes count as humanoid prey jokingly, and she takes it extremely poorly. You can get them to settle it by getting Astarion to admit he acts the way he does because he wants her to toughen up because she is at more risk, and she begrudgingly admits he has been making her a better fighter.

Are there any NPCs that turn up during the game that have links to the character?

Not as such, but you can find her violin in Baldur's Gate at the music shop, and it sparks a conversation with the owner where he talks about her music and how much he loves her songs. It's a very sweet moment!

How does Glim respond to Abidarak whipping the player character?

She's interested! Perhaps not as obviously as Shadowheart and Astarion, ha, but she remarks that it's good to note they're up for all kinds of new experiences....

And because I actually answered the wrong one lmao, do they have a romance scene at the tiefling party?

Yes, they do, but you have to roll a persuasion check to convince her she can steal away. When you do, she admits she's been writing a song about the player, but it's not finished and she can't work out where to go next. Does she concentrate on the great deeds they've done, or does she concentrate on the emotional journey, the connections, the bonds? That opens up for a kiss and, if the player is interested, a night together, where she gets to demonstrate her, er, practised hands.

Sinrane and Launë Aelvu’s quest : Traditions of the Underdark

Sinrane is the first you meet. She is in a hallway of the goblin’s camp after having slaughtered some of her jailers. She tells you she is not like Minthara and is a runaway from the Underdark. 

During a long rest, she tells you the Matriarch of her former House may send some killers on her chase, as she is a disgrace and shows you the scar on her neck. 

She makes snarky remarks when she sees siblings or if someone mentions that subject. 

At Last Light Inn, Jaheira tells you a cleric can help you with some supplies. 

If you go to a long rest, Launë arrives at your camp with food. In your party or not, Sinrane appears in the cutscene and her demeanor changes when she sees Launë. He recognised her despite his shattered memory, calling her little sister. She leaves with a cold voice affirming he is nothing for her. 

If you choose to go to him with Sinrane in your party, you will have a cutscene with her at your camp. She warns you to be careful because he cannot be trusted. 

If in your party, you also trigger the “You’re nothing for me” cutscene. 

Sinrane will refuse to be in the same party as Launë. 

She once wakes up from a nightmare, you follow her. She sits next to the water, her hand gripping the scar on her neck. When she sees you, she explains Launë is her older sibling. Their Mother sent him to eliminate her, but she killed him and left Menzoberranzan forever. 

Of course, Launë listened to the conversation. He comes next to the both of you, kneeling down and saying to his sister how sorry he is. Sinrane refuses to talk and leaves. 

Launë decides to tell you the few he remembers. Eilistraee, his goddess, brought him back from the dead; he knows the memory loss was a price to pay. But now, he can be who he really is. He just remembers young Sinrane, watching him with admiration, and hopes their relationship can be the same. 

Bad ending : Sinrane kills Launë as she is unable to trust him and is sure he would have killed her for their Mother. 

Good ending : You have to speak with both of them to have the whole story, to help rebuild the trust that was lost. They make peace with their past. Launë understands Sinrane needs space, they will never be close again, but the wounds are healing. Sinrane accepts he had no choice when their Mother sent him to end her life and that he did not poison the blade because he hoped she would escape.

astarion is grumpy because he thought there would be more naked twinks and debauchery based on the complaints in the editorial section of the baldur’s mouth gazette

jaheira and minsc are on the side doing that tiktok “talk valentina!”/“ally!” bit

[nethereasypeasy]

Some fluffy head canons I have about the Baldurs Babes

mainly at camp :)

Gale stops tav to lace their boots, sarcastically tutting as he does it.

Karlach holds her hands round someones bowl and cups to warm them if they cool down too much. (Mama K microwave™)

Jaheira and Halsin share nightcaps and chat about the tadpole team. Mainly laughing at their comparative lack of experience - always ends on a 'they're good eggs tho' vibe.

Astarion and Shadowheart rate people's hair to eachother as an injoke, tav hears them mumbling numbers behind them whenever they speak to someone.

Lae'zel asks Gale to explain and pronounce things when no one is around because the 'annoying wizard' won't make fun, he's too eager to teach.

Jaheira has the best bedtime stories but they get Karlach hyped up and she asks a lot of questions till Astarion begs her to be quiet. Wyll takes mental notes for his own storytelling.

Karlach will force a game of 'I Spy' any time there is silence on the road.

Wyll is very good at little random gifts, he just remembers anything someone mentions to him. He's also low-key emotional if you return that kindness, 'you remembered?! 😭'

Halsin stops, kneels and whispers as he points and shows tav interesting plants or animals he spots when walking. 'look there's the mother and her babies' type shit. (He is camp dad(dy) ok)

Wyll teaches Lae'zel fencing. She's too keen though and tries to pin him down. She is not as graceful... But she has fun... chk!

Gale keeps a tiny portrait of Tara on him, you can't tell me modern au Gale's phone wouldn't be full of cat pics.

Astarion watches over the camp at night, he acts like he 'might as well/ I'm the only one lurking in the dark around HERE darlings' but sometimes he secretly gets a little teary looking at his first real friends all together.

Shadowheart writes moody poetry. She would tell Gale but she doesn't care for his taste... Or his possible critiques. If he ever did find her journal though he would be VERY enthused.

Astarion and tav will play with people's wardrobes when looting. Tav loves a funny hat and Astarion will do impressions of who he thinks would wear such god's awful attire.

Gale and Wyll play chess together after dinner some nights. They both say progressively cheesy lines when they take pieces, which is its own game itself at this point.

Halsin would quietly sing or hum to owlbear baby and scratch at night. Little lullabies and he'd probably tuck them in too. OR he'd be big daddy bear and snuggle up, especially when owlbear is scared and misses his mum.

The gang have played 'never have I ever' ONE time and ONE time only. It was a messy night.

... Jaheira was 100% last man standing.

I love my wife, even if she growls at me every time I stop kissing her.

The kiss option is immaculate. I think we would all really benefit from a hug option too

Bc you mentioned Glim is a bit more inclined towards other short folk, does she have any other preferences? What physical features does she find most attractive?

Honestly her inclination isn't really too much about what she finds attractive, but more to do with how you can engage with each other. As a musician, she likes to be able to read people's faces, to tune into each other's sub-expressions and rhythms and that's easier with those who are similar to you in height!

She likes a fine pair of eyes and a deft pair of hands, and a sweet way of talking and a generous, curious spirit. And a filthy mind! Glim likes her fun, and can be a short-term thing as well as something that turns more serious over time.

Selene Laeman’s quest : Beam of Devotion 

As a Paladin of Devotion, Selene has a strong moral sense and justice. 

She became a paladin during her twenties, after meeting her mentor in the Baldur's Gate watch. 

But she still has inner conflict, especially as her best friend is morally gray, and she fears breaking her oath with every action. 

You discover that her mentor is a fanatic paladin of Tyr with a twisted vision of how justice must be made. 

Bad ending : You push Selene to follow her mentor's path. She gains a powerful beam of light, but her disapproval is easier to trigger and she is just a shadow of who she was. 

Good ending : She learns with your support that she can be a good paladin despite her inner conflict and she will not break her oath by having feelings. She judges her mentor and tells him that he is an oathbreaker and takes their Hammer of Tyr.

Enchanted...

I adore Halsin with the other companions, but the depth of feeling for Quarter/Tav with how much he's done for him is unmatched. Mans had the world on his back for a hundred years and someone comes in and takes the weight for him without question.

I do really appreciate bg3 having neutral pronouns/the ability to use whatever pronouns regardless of appearance but it's really amusing to me when enemies or npcs I never met gender my tav correctly it feels like this
