it’s completely bananas to me that halsin's sex scene features a moment where he somehow loses control of his druidic powers and wildshapes into a bear, because he’s apparently that horny. like...gale had to be infected with a mindflayer tadpole for him to make mistakes in his spellcasting, even though he already carried a small nuclear bomb of evil, weave-consuming magic in his chest. what THE fuck is halsin’s excuse? like, as funny as it is for an archdruid to be so overcome with lust upon seeing a tdick that he loses his grip on his abilities, it makes absolutely no sense! what do you mean that this guy has enough power to open a portal to the shadowfell, and rescue a little fey boy from it, but he can't control his wildshaping because "bear horny?" HUH?
#bg3#thoughts about media#the more I think about halsin and SH. the more I grow resentful of their writer in specific.#genuinely. what the hell was this guy thinking.#like how is this scene meant to be sexy?#as a monsterfucker- I GET the appeal of a man fighting his “inner beast” to be with his partner.#but it doesn't come across that way in the halsin scene. it feels...silly? nonsensical?#he's an extremely powerful druid....losing control of his wildshape because he's aroused makes him look...immature.#is the appeal of halsin not that he is an experienced but lonely older man?#when confessing to your player character- he expresses his appreciation for the care with which the PC has treated him.#which I LOVED because it developed upon that initial dialogue of his where he reveals how alone he really is!#his family is all gone...so he only had the grove.#but the people at the grove held him in such high regard...it was like he wasn't a person anymore. just a “leader.”#it makes perfect sense to me that he would fall for someone who treats his feelings as important...who treats him like a person!#but the sex scene devolves so rapidly into...god...something out of a badly written fanfic?#honestly- forget the wildshaping. your PC should have had the opportunity to top halsin.#it would have made MUCH more sense given why he's even attracted to your PC in the first place.
