🔞 started as an Astarion appreciation blog but has turned into an Astarion heavy BG3 brain rot blog(I follow / like from rinmoon7!) INFJ, elder millennial. original content tagged with "Astarion's beloved blogs about BG3"
Name: let's use my self insert tav name: Iliana. My OG tumblr is here, and that's where the follows and likes will originate from, be warned, that blog is where ALL real-world stuff goes.
Quick about me: I'm 42, non-binary she/they, pansexual but very demi. I have a cat named Fujiko who enjoys talking. I'm from Washington, DC. I'm audhd, have hEDS, and I'm an abuse survivor.
My tags (also attached to this post!): astarion's beloved blogs about bg3, liliana speaks, liliana does a durge run, astarions beloved does a durge run, liliana's bloodweave playthrough, traumathurgy, bg3 trauma talk
Things I will not tolerate: racism, anti-LGBTQIA+ sentiment, anything hateful, any weird behavior from people unable to separate characters from their actors.
Tav Masterpost!
BG3 note: my game is modded, screen grabs will not be from a vanilla game. I'm always happy to answer questions about what mods I'm using!
What do you DO though? I'm an interior designer for my "9-5". I write urban high fantasy and magical realism and create creatures, worlds, and setting details for TTRPG creators. I do voice work (audiobooks for indie authors, including reading rules for TTRPGs) and am starting to get into asmr rps. I'm a casual photographer and videographer.
How long have you been involved in fandoms? I've been writing fic since I was 14 (I started with the neverending story!), and I think my biggest claim to fame is getting cnd'd by Anne Rice for writing a fix-it-fic about Armand and Claudia.
Why I love Baldur's Gate 3: I'm a huge ttrpg nerd, I love DND, and I played BG1+2 when I was younger. I avoided ABSOLUTELY EVERYTHING about bg3 until I had it in my hands. This game is hands down the most beautiful thing I've ever touched. and truly, all the origin characters behave like player characters, down to the backgrounds and the trauma. I love that this game doesn't shy away from the darker side of healing.
Other fandoms? BTS (I've been with them since 2016), one piece, What We Do In The Shadows, LOTR, sailor moon, star trek (almost all), star wars, animal crossing, final fantasy
Things I just think are neat: whale sharks, cottagecore and dark academia, keyboards
A note: I may, occasionally, rant about how poorly fandom is behaving when it comes to treating the cast of BG3. I may also talk about my own trauma, but I'll try to keep it vague.
