Gale: soooo uh i have a bomb in my chest. it could go off at any moment. it could destroy baldur's gate entirely.

Durge, Chosen of Bhaal:

Immith: *organizes a meeting with her mind, body, and soul* So what the fuck is going on around here.

Most of what I have time to draw these days are either freelance work or just doodles..... But tomorrow I’m going into teaching practice which means no lectures and seminars for 6 weeks!! So hopefully I’ll have more time to draw. c:

Headcanon; the recent increase to my girls perception came solely from the fact that she swept her bangs back and got herself some proper eyewear.

I AM SCREAMINGGGG

[swindlefingrs]

what about a necromancer durgetash that raises gortash from the dead, puppeting him around in a sad 'oh they can't let go' kinda way and a 'weekend at bernie's' funny kinda way

i fully expected to cut off Gale's hand playing Immith using a dark urge and not recruiting him, but i didn't get the option for some reason? instead he's in camp and is having the worst fucking time of his life. especially after betraying the grove:

transcript under the read more:

Gale, to Durge: This is the worst moment. When the screams of the dying have faded, and the conquering hordes howl and yelp as they come to their vile climax.

Gale: Massacre. A spectacle of slaughter. And I participated.

Gale: What are these bloody stumps that used to be delicate harpists of the Weave?

Gale: I don't know myself anymore. All this... it's not who I am. Around you, I'm not who I want to be.

Gale: I should leave.

The Dark Urge: [Deception] You don't stand a chance alone. You're free to go. I dare you.

Charisma check, a natural 20. Critical success.

Gale: Gods damn you - you're right. Few things are more powerful than the will to live.

It's thematic how isolating an unrepentant dark urge playthrough is.

Immith only has a handful of companions: some hate her (Gale), she's pushing the boundaries of others (Lae'zel), most are dead (karlach, wyll, jaheira, isobel, Aylin, halsin), and the rest she's turning into the worst versions of themselves for her own gain (shadowheart, Astarion) and it's just so

fucking.

lonely.

There's no meaningful connection to anyone, just this dark hope that you'll figure out who you are and satiate the dark urge at the same time.

To have connection you have to be willing to be vulnerable, and Immith is only willing to play vulnerable in order to lure someone close enough to kill

(I think it doesn't help that even Minthara has nothing really to say thru act II so far)
