BG3 Brainwormed

Took 332 hours to finish Act 3. 5 of those were spent trying to steal Haarlep. Send help. || Ryuu: 25, they/them, aroace || Chaotic Neutral || I exist to torment durgetash nation, Raphael, & Tavernus. And make crack.

[bg3-brainwormed]

Making a proper pinned. For once.

Ryuu, they/them, 25. Will likely not have any explicit or adult content besides the occasional joke. Overall blog rating ranges from General - Mature due to violence/gore (Durge). If I am following you and/or follow you back, it’s from my main since this is a sideblog. And may take a couple days. I am both easily distracted and slow to interact.

Fav Characters: All the companions + Minthara + Karniss + Mol and her Kids + Gortash (Unfortunately) + Raphael (even more unfortunately). Complicated feelings about Haarlep.

Current Origin playthroughs: Lusca/Durge (Done - Balanced), Gale (Act 2 - Balanced), Astarion (Act 1 - Balanced), Kyre/Durge (Act 1 - Tactician), Tavernus/Durge (Act1 - Balanced)

Total Hours: 434

Fav Ships: Bloodweave, Durgetash, Halsin/Anyone, Astarion/Karlach, Karlach/Wyll, Shadowzel, Camp = Polycule, and Raphael/Haarlep. What do we call that. They technically share a name already. Oh well - the “old man yaoi” tag on this blog is reserved for Haarlep x Raphael.

Rarepairs I will go down with: Halsin/Raphael & GaleDurgeTash

Things to know: I call the baby owlbear, “Bite.” I make a lot of jokes. Don’t take these posts too seriously. I am okay with receiving asks, messages, being @-ed, having long thread discussions, whatever. The owlbear may bite, but I don't.

Tags:

Anything about my ongoing fic HtStW will be tagged as “one companion at a time.”

Anything involving my Durge!Tav from that fic will be tagged “tavernus.”

"Old man yaoi" = Haarlep/Raphael.

I am not consistent with this, but “the dark urge” is default Durge and “durge” is any durge. Good luck.

Fanfics:

How to Save the World (one companion at a time) Tavernus, aka The Dark Urge, gets a good ending. Their companions don't. But with a little help from their resident withered diety, they can have a chance to do it right this time... if only they could remember what they were supposed to be doing and why.

An Archive of Our Own, a project of the Organization for Transformative Works

Like Real People Do. Kinda. Modern Durge + party go to college. Minthara deals in cybersecurity and goes to book clubs with Gale. Cazador Szarr gets hit by a car. Halsin is club advisor and convinces Durge to get a Ph.D. in druid Ecology. Everyone multiclasses in bard. It's a fun time:

Durges/Tavs:

Tavernus: They/He, goes by Tav for short. Named by the party after they escaped hell and the nautiloid. Was meant to be a joke, but they decided they liked it and would keep the name. A delightful little freak of a Durge and the MC of HtStW. If feral + ride or die was a person. Wild Magic Sorcerer, eventual multiclass in Bard. In a QPR with everybody. The love and light of my life. No OC shall ever surpass them.

Lusca: My first ever main, now immortalized. Nonbinary Durge, they/them. Raised in Menzoberranzan before running away after the sacrifice of their younger “brother” to Lolth… and killing the entire House in response. Eventually taken in by the Bhaalists. Moral compass is a spinning wheel but they’re doing their best. Romanced Gale and Astarion. Old Great Ones Warlock. Besties with Hadar.

Kyre: Raised by bandits who were later slaughtered by Fist while he watched on, hidden. Huge grudge against the powers of Baldur’s Gate and joined the Bhaalists for vengeance. He/Him. Main of my Dark/Evil Durge run. Romanced ?. Rogue/Warlock

there's Mom Jaheira with the bhaalspawn....but does this mean now there's the fun Uncle Minsc and even more importantly the wise Mentor Boo

Fun uncle Minsc yes but wise and mighty Boo sees right through the cute baby eyes. Has ~opinions~ about the Bhaalspawn.

i bring a sort of "this character is canonically malnourished and would gain at least a couple pounds during their hypothetical healing arc wherein they get better" vibe to the function that people dont really like

I love when a character wants to be someone's dog so so bad. Dont mean it in a sexual way (although that can also be a part of it) I mean like. Let me be your loyal companion let me stay by your side give me a purpose in exchange for endless unconditional love let me stop being a person love me like it's my only use. Love me like that's the only thing I was made for. As you can tell. I'm normal.
