hiii!!! my names Eddie, I don’t come on here a lot but I’ve decided to move to here since I live in America and TikTok is getting banned :( so here’s my intro!!
my pronouns are he/him
I’m trans (ftm) and bi!!
I’m a minor
I’m a witch + helpol!!
I’m an artist/occasional writer (I’m working on a story called down in hell!!)
some of my interests are Red Dead Redemption, Baldur’s Gate 3, My Hero Academia, Death Note, Star Wars, Dragon’s Dogma 2, Stranger things, Arcane, Spiderman, Cowboys, Vampires, Zombies, Religious horror, and LPS :3
I have two cats+a husky!!
I’ll mostly be posting my ocs, one-shots, drawings, and maybe some clips from games I play ^^!!
I’m a metalhead, but I listen to lots of different types of music
my favorite characters ever are Eddie Munson (named myself after him.), Dabi/touya, Astarion, Din Djarin, Sevika, the Sphinx from dd2, and Matsuda (dn) :3
I probably won’t post alot, but until I do, stay safe yall ^^!!
what ao3 would look like with ads. no, you do not want this. support ao3 because it’s one of the last few places on the internet that is not tainted by capitalism bullshit. support ao3 because it’s one of the last few places on the internet that is genuinely about the connection between audiences, artists, their works and the love/passion artists have for what they do
not all of your readers are white with pin straight hair!!
“You brushed your hair” no actually, i did not. i cannot casually brush through my curls and i know damn well people with coily hair can’t either.
what can i say instead? oh i’m so glad you asked!!
“While getting ready, you got dressed and took the time to do your hair.” this keeps it vague. people with all kinds of hair take the time to do their hair whether it be blow drying, straightening, curling, or having to take 45 minutes to brush it. hell, even a bald person can take the time to put a wig on
i usually ignore things like this while reading, but the assumption that all your readers look like you is wrong and as a woc it gets tiring after a while
i don’t post this to shame authors, because i’m also guilty for including details in my writing that don’t apply to large demographics! i post this because as authors, it’s OUR job to learn how to keep things vague enough to be inclusive while still telling our story !!
can we please save the pitchforks and flaming torches for after the finale? can we not be inclined towards grand conspiracies? scriptgate was fine but this is absurd. we're letting netflix and homophobes win like this, yall know that right? tanking ep reviews, harassing cast and crew and producers? we will live up to the delusional and crazy reputation they've been trying to force onto us for years. can we all just take a breath, look at things logically, sit with the hurt and betrayal and at the very least wait until the finale of the show please?
haiii I’m just here to show off my tavs and also share a little bit of their backstory !! and also ofc who I’m romancing in each of their playthroughs :3
VALOS DRYAALIS
(last name subject to change)
act 1-2 act 3-epilogue
RACE: Lolth-sworn Drow
CLASS: rogue
AGE: 35
ROMANCING: Astarion, Shadowheart
GENDER IDENTITY: cis male
SEXUALITY: bisexual (no preference)
BRIEF BACKSTORY:
Valos was born into an underdark village, raised by fellow drow-including his mother, father, and his sister (unnamed so far). A personal headcanon that I’ve made up for drow is that in certain villages, priestesses of Lolth will insert spider sacs/spiders into drow children in order to keep them in line (if they betray Lolth, the spiders will kill them from the inside out). Valos, obviously being male, had a hard time in his village-and him being a sensitive child didn’t help. But his sister defended him, denying the gender norms in drow society and teaching him the ways of drow women. Valos admired his sister, congratulating her when she was sent off to war for the first time at 17. However, when his sister ‘came back’ a charred corpse, he spiraled-leading him to eventually leave the underdark when he turned 18. The betrayal of Lolth, as well as his behavior when he arrived to Baldur’s Gate, caused Lolth to disown him-the spider behind his eye injecting it’s poison-hence his blacked-out eye.
Ever since, Valos has been paranoid of Lolth-afraid to indulge in any personal pleasures in the fear that she will unleash her power again, this time with the spiders in his stomach. At the beginning of the game, he’s much more paranoid and secretive. By the end, he’s completely written Lolth out of his mind and he’s more confident in his decisions. His dream visitor took the form of his sister. If he was a companion, his personal quest to rid himself of the spiders and find out what really happened to his sister, would be ‘The Betrayer of Lolth’.
(note-valos dyed his hair black after he was disowned by Lolth, and throughout the events of the game, he lets his natural white hair grow out-in my mind, his hair grows a little bit as well because of this and by the epilogue he has longer cornrows.)
SYLUS
RACE: Tiefling
CLASS: bard
AGE: 27
ROMANCING: literally everybody. he has a thing with everybody-but mainly Karlach, Wyll, and Halsin.
GENDER IDENTITY: trans male/ftm
SEXUALITY: pansexual, polyamorous
BRIEF BACKSTORY:
Sylus is not extremely traumatized like my other ocs. He is an orphan, but he was quickly taken in as a child by his adoptive parents. He was raised in a loving home, encouraged to pursue a career in music and performance, as well as to transition to a man. As he grew up, he became a jester for the local circus in Baldur’s gate-where he performed with his violin and entertained the masses of the city. His dream visitor took the form of his music teacher, the one who had helped him begin to write his own music as well as sing. If he was a companion, he would probably not have a personal quest, as he has no big problem in his life. The only thing he’s concerned about is getting back to the city and jumping around in his little jester uniform again. His appearance does not change throughout the game, as he is already very confident in himself before the events of the game.
(note: his scar on his nose isn’t an indicator of any trauma. he most likely snapped a string of his violin onto himself on accident, somehow.)
CASPIAN PEARLCREST
RACE: Half elf, half merfolk
CLASS: sorcerer
AGE: 29
ROMANCING: Gale, Astarion
GENDER IDENTITY: male with weird and confusing fish anatomy (I know nothing about merfolk pls bare with me)
SEXUALITY: gay (mlm)
BRIEF BACKSTORY:
Caspian grew up in an underwater kingdom near the coast of Baldur’s Gate. His mother was merfolk, and his father elven-taking the uncommon step to move to the underwater city with his now pregnant wife. Caspian is the middle child of an older and younger brother-leaving him to often be ignored by his parents, other than when they are beckoning him to find a woman to marry. Caspian was always different than his uptight family-he’d always do his best to get out of the palace to help the people of the kingdom, unlike his parents.
Even with this, though, Caspian is still sheltered. When the events of the game occur, he has never had a romantic partner-until Astarion and Gale. He’s in a bit of a love triangle (more like a circle..#bloodweave). At the beginning of the game, Caspian is much more selfish and materialistic-but by the end, he grows and manages to become better (no doubt due to his companions having to humble him constantly). His dream visitor took the form of his mother. I think that he also wouldn’t have a personal quest-his biggest problem is overcoming his internalized homophobia and classism, which is nothing compared to the likes of the other companions struggles.
(note: for the half-merfolk thing, I’d like to imagine that it’s an H20 just add water type of thing where prolonged contact with water will transform the part of the body it’s contacted with into a merfolk form with scales and such-hence why he can walk on land and breathe underwater.)
