Got more BG3 character ideas, this might be what I post here until I feel like making actual writing posts lmao

[ ] Sorcerer: Wild Magic - Custom/Durge/Vampire Durge, Human, Noble/Haunted One, someone who was born with magic that harmed them to use but was pushed to learn and study magic so their family could say they have a sorcerer child, then when they got kidnapped and infected then escaped they tried to use the adventure as a way to make a name for themself beyond being their parent's child (if Durge, their parents sent them to Gortash years ago in hopes he could send them to a good magic tutor, instead he sent them to Orin since he saw potential in them for becoming a Bhaalspawn so they ended up becoming raised by Orin and the chosen 3 until the kidnapping + infection factory-resetted them and they fought against the three)(WIP)

[ ] Sorcerer: Storm Sorcery - Custom, High Elf/Wood Elf, Outlander, a child who was born and grew up in the wild, giving them an innate skill of storm magic (i need to add more)

[ ] Sorcerer: Blood Sorcery - Vampire Durge, High Elf/Human, Haunted One, someone who was born with an innate skill of manipulating blood, which made them targeted by a vampire lord who turned them to make them into a powerful spawn, until they killed the lord and used the lord + the other spawns to ascend so that way they wouldn't be hurt anymore, not letting it change them until they were made into a Bhaalspawn, which is where they started the whole pre-game durge storyline, but then the infection gave them the whole factory reset (WIP)

[ ] Wizard: Necromancy - Durge, Lolth-Sworn Drow, Haunted One, someone who has had an affinity and interest in Death ever since being born in Menzoberranzan, which led to Bhaal being interested in them, leading them from Lolth's teachings and making them a Durge, until the tadpole turned on the not-evil parts of their brain(WIP)

[ ] Wizard: Divination - Custom, Mephistopheles Tiefling, Sage, a wizard who usually lived in their tower but regularly got paid by the nobles of Baldur's Gate to read their futures, they got kidnapped and infected when they got paid by Gortash to read their future and Gortash thought their magic would make them a useful thrall

[ ] Wizard: Illusion - Custom/Durge/Vampire Durge, Lolth-Sworn Drow, Outlander/Sage/Haunted One, a person who used to use their illusion magic to make sure they were left alone in their wilderness home but was inflicted with a Bhaalspawn curse that gave them a Dark Urge, so they helped the chosen 3 until the worm factory-resetted them, bringing them back to their polite-but-still-shy self (If Custom, just cut out the Durge part)(WIP)

Whenever I feel like it I might write a full list on how the lore progresses and grows in each act for each of these class ideas

Might be hard for the shorter ones like the witches and the hunter ranger but I'd be down to try at some point

Idk if this counts as actual WRITING but I made a list of all my BG3 character ideas, I play with a lot of mods found on the xbox mod manager so that's why some of these may look unfamiliar

Also if you see any typos or mistakes shhhh no you didn't

(WIP) = I dont know the full Durge/Vampire Durge lore, I will workshop the character's backstory as I go

Cleric: Life Domain (Deity: Kelemvor) - Custom, High Elf, Urchin, a street urchin that got basically adopted into Kelemvor's clergy in Baldur's Gate, their best friend's death and them being infected sets off them eventually destroying that branch of the clergy (the whole lore is a lot to explain lol)

Druid: Circle Of The Spores - Custom, Human, Outlander, born and raised in their circle but having to run away when their circle was destroyed by someone who betrayed the circle, so while looking for a cure to the tadpole they are also looking for that traitor

Paladin: Oath Of Devotion to Oathbreaker - Durge/Vampire Durge, Human, Soldier, a paladin serving a lord, but the lord betrayed them by cursing them with amnesia, which caused the dark urge to form, and then casting them out where all they can remember is part of their oath, which inevitably leads to them becoming an oathbreaker against their wishes, nonetheless they will do what they can to destroy the absolute and save humanity (WIP)

Ranger: Hunter - Custom, Asmodeus Tiefling, Folk Hero, notable bounty hunter who's made their living being the one who hunts the worst villains to protect others, ended up getting kidnapped and infected by mind flayers so now wants to hunt the Absolute and its cult

Ranger: Gloom Stalker - Durge/Vampire Durge, Lolth-Sworn Drow, Noble/Charlatan/Haunted One, a Drow who wanted to leave Lolth's cult due to meeting a non-Drow that basically fixed them and Lolth got her revenge by somehow convincing Bhaal to infect them with the Dark Urge (WIP)

Ranger: Horizon Walker - Custom, High Elf/Half-High Elf, Outlander, a kid basically raised by the wild after their parents got mauled by gnolls and the gnolls didn't find the infant due to the parents hiding them well enough, but a being beyond the planes found them and recruited them to be a Horizon Walker, teaching them everything they needed to know

Warlock: Rememberance - Durge, Human, Soldier/Haunted One, a soldier who once died in war and came back worse (with a dark urge and no memories) so theyre searching for their past and what happened (WIP)

Warlock: Celestial - Custom, Human, Folk Hero, the once-god-level-powerful child of a fallen deity who is hiding themselves amongst humans while trying to save as many people as possible and also try to find answers on what happened to their parent

Warlock: Great Old One - Custom, Human, Acolyte, someone who was born to a strict traditional Tyrran family but when their father tried to kill them, they made a deal with an eldritch being for survival, and after being kicked out they worked on saving as many people as possible, because in their eyes they had to redeem themselves in the eyes of their father and the gods

Blood Mage - Custom/Vampire Durge, Human, Noble, the child of a noble family that was handed off to an experiment to see if they could create a vampire ascendant, but the experiment went wrong, it gave them access to blood magic but also changed them by haunting them with the souls of all the spawn that died to ascend them (and a dark urge if I do a durge origin) (WIP)

Mind Weaver: Astral Seer/Void Reaver - Custom, High Elf, Sage, a being from the Astral Plane who came down to deal with the Absolute so it doesn't disrupt the balance but got kidnapped by the mind flayers and infected, which weakened them

Witch: Herbalist - Custom, Human/Wood Elf/Half-Wood Elf, Outlander, a solitary witch living in a beautiful forest who got kidnapped by mind flayers during a trip into civilization and now has to work to get the tadpole out

Witch: Hex Witch - Custom/Durge/Vampire Durge, Human/High Elf/Lolth-Sworn Drow, Outlander, a solitary witch living in a much deeper, darker forest who mamaged to get kidnapped by mind flayers during one of the rare trips into civilization and now has to work to get the tadpole out (if Durge/Vampire Durge: they would never hunt down innocent people but if anyone bothered them and refused to leave they would sacrifice the intruder for more power)(WIP)

I know it's cringe, I know a lot of it probably isn't lore accurate but eh whatever

(Pfp is by @speedane )

This blog only exists to try and force me out of writing burn out, I will be writing for no one but myself so there's probably gonna be so much self indulgence in my writing, LOTS of oc stuff definitely

I will try to post one writing a day about whatever my brainrot is at the time, starting later or tomorrow idk, because Im making this blog as Im fighting sleep, but I can't even keep up with the meds that I'm supposed to take so don't be surprised if I fall off the schedule LMAO

Also I am 22 so there will inevitably be smut, I will make sure to mark those accordingly so anyone who doesn't do smut can dodge
