Every time it's Act 3, I already know what Halsin wants to talk about xD

karlach receiving gale’s magic lesson ✨

[letheslogs]

Halsin joined the camp in hopes of breaking the Shadow Curse, likely expecting to continue his research in the field while supporting the group as a resident healer. He fully grasped the severity of his companion’s conditions, but was unfamiliar with the frequent nightly visits by a mysterious guardian. I wonder how frequently he witnessed Tav and the crew shivering in their sleep as the only person unaffected; how often he saw them wake exhausted and confused to exchange theories; what he felt when they clutched their heads as the Absolute’s voice overwhelmed them. I imagine as a healer his impotence regarding the tadpole frustrated him deeply, particularly as he began building relationships and bonds with his new companions around the camp fire. I picture a restless Halsin greeting them with potions for their aching heads in the mornings, treating more severe pains with the strongest magic he could muster, and taking the occasional research note while listening to their description of the mysterious visitor. There's little else he can do to ease their exhaustion from this burden, let alone save their lives. And so I imagine a sort of organic routine begins to form as they approach the Shadow Cursed Lands, where the former Arch Druid finds himself keeping another doomed company alive as best he can. This time, at least, he was not leading it.

This is part of a set I hope to post together someday. For now it’s just a WIP line art + quick drop colors. Learning very quickly I have no patience for coloring. 😵‍💫

we need more pathetic female characters written by authors who don't hate women

[feluka]

to be clear since this is making the rounds: she has to be an absolute loser in no way that can be pinned on her gender. no "i'm just a girl tee-hee" stuff. straight up just a loser (nondenominational)

[feluka]

addendum: she must be the most important person in the whole narrative

[feluka]

I decided to sit down and concentrate and properly write the list of rules that qualify a character for this role.

FIRST LAW: This character must be a woman.

SECOND LAW: This character must be a loser, but not in a way that can be pinned on her gender. Misogynistic response from the audience does not disqualify the character.

THIRD LAW: If the audience does not enjoy this character, then it becomes impossible to enjoy the show/film/book/game altogether. It is not possible to ignore this character, for better or for worse.

FOURTH LAW: The character must make bad decisions, and not just be a victim of poor circumstances outside of her control. The character can also be a victim of poor circumstances outside of her control, but it has to be primarily her personal choices that deem her a loser.

Daydreaming about a scenario where they have to get into Gortash's coronation ball to fish for information/steal something has been keeping me going the past few days.

[cigfranfach]

nothing like murdering Alfira and then getting jumpscared by this freaky little goblin man calling himself your butler. as if you are not clearly from a poor family.

New fic alert!

Because I suffer from the classic artist's curse of "start one project and immediately switch to a new one", I've created a new fic! This one is told from Shadowheart's perspective, rather than from my tav's.

So, do YOU like southern gothic? The aesthetic of the 1950s? How about psychological horror, cults, and murder mystery? Struggles with homophobia and comphet? Ominous abuses of wealth and social power? All while revamping your favorite Baldur's Gate 3 characters into a 1950s Charleston drama putting a real world spin on Shadowheart's personal quest with a brand new, unique ending? If so, this one's probably for you.

Here, go read it. Ideally uploading weekly to biweekly.

To heaven and back

[agarthanguide]

I don’t think I’m a particularly big account anywhere, but even with exposure from work, almost nothing bothers me. I’m always interested to hear it.

You know what? I hereby make a solemn vow to comment on art that I see and love at least once a day. Join me on this. Let’s bother the artists.
