My First Gith—Ariadne

She is a war domain cleric for Vlaakith. Her background is Acolyte. I considered paladin (and am open to changing her class to go oathbreaker) but couldn’t decide what subclass I thought fit best!

Edit: You guys, I’m having a time in the comments.

Astarion bloodless

I haven't done a full playthrough yet (late I know) but I remember hearing about an item that prevents you from going bloodless from astarion does anyone know what it is / where to find it?

In these adventures we have grown closer than ever, we now face Ketheric Thorm, our deceiver, our, slaver… our would be killer. It’s time for vengeance.

As our goblin leaders get ever closer to freeing themselves from the worms in their heads, the uneasy alliance they once shared first in service of the absolute and now in a vow of sworn enmity against it has grown ever stronger.

I’m really enjoying rewriting the story of the goblin leaders tbh, giving them the love they deserve.

An eye for an eye...

My mod 'Any Way You Want It' is poised to enter alpha release. At present I am focusing on editing each head for each race so that it displays the correct racial characteristics. Ears mostly, but gith noses and slitted eyes too. Hopefully doing one a day! Vote on who I should do next 🤣.

On release, you'll be able to play and replay cutscenes, including party banter and voice barks, transform characters into other characters (both in the game world and in cutscenes), complete control over cutscene visuals, create your own Instant Origins, customize all NPCs to your hearts content, as well as a variety of slice-of-life tools to enable you to customize your cutscenes ... any way you want it :).

Mod Trailer (check out some of my other videos!):

The Emperor came onto me while I was wearing clown face paint

I used disguise face paint kit for the first time, long rested to get that shite off and my appearance went back to normal but the face paint stayed on. This made me laugh

Why is Halsin being weird since I recruited Minthara?

I did what you would normally do in a good run, sided with the Grove and kill everyone in the goblin camp, I just knock Minthara out and move on with my life hoping to see her again in moonrise towers, which I did, just right after I completed all the Thaniel mission and now I have the kid in my camp telling me to kill Ketheric, meaning, I've done everything you can do to make Halsin happy, however, the moment I recruited Minthara I noticed she took the space in the camp he used to be, now him and Thaniel are just standing in random places, usually the hardest to find (there was even a moment I thought he has left, but no, he was just very well hidden) he has no tent now and apparently nothing to say about it bc I tried speaking to him just to see the same dialogs he would always have, what is going on?

Honor Mode: Should Astarion be There?

I am continuing an HM run I put on pause months ago due to fear or failing. I dont have anything SPECTACULAR for my builds, but the characters are definitely able to hold their own for the run, having pretty easily decimated Myrkul.

I am Level 10, and paused my progress just at the doors to Cazador’s battle. My current party is my Tav (2 Star Druid/8 Light Cleric) with a Radiating Orb build, Shadowheart (a mixed cleric build, but mostly Support and some big AoEs), Gale (Evocation Wizard with a LOT of big AoE spells), and Wyll (Fiend Pact of Blade with Hex, Agonizing Blast Eldritch Blast, Potent Robe, and the Pelorsun Blade as his Pact Weapon).

Part of me can’t help but feel like I should turn around, Long Rest, then re-buff my party with the camp cleric-hirelings, but have Astarion join us. I have beaten this fight before in a multiplayer run, so I know I can get his good ending still even if I leave him at camp, unlike Shart with the final portion of Act 2. And I know that having Astarion actually makes the fight HARDER since I have to free him, or be down a character. But leaving him behind, when for this entire run I’ve done my best to have everyone there for fights and events tied to their quests (I’ll be having Karlach with me when I fight Gortash eventually, and probably during the Steel Watch Foundry too), just rubs me the wrong way.

So, should I bring him along? Or leave him behind and out of the choice for his fate?

Should I make her a Mummy, an aasimar or a human?

So, i'm making a new character but I'm not sure how I want to play this character.  Her name is ‘The Archivist’ and she is a Necromancer/Blood sorcerer who at one point worked under the tutelage of a powerful Lich. She was his librarian/Archivist and dedicated herself to protecting the knowledge he had been collecting for centuries. She even had a team of non-sentient undead to help with her work. Over time she became a talented necromancer and began building a collection of her own. One day, she began to see her body changing. She grew black scales over her face and arms, and one of her eyes turned black. She quickly began searching for answers, only to discover that she was not what she thought she was and that a curse had begun to besiege her body. She fled the library and began to hide in Baldur’s Gate, hoping to find someone who would heal her, but everyone refused, except for Father Lorgan at the Ilmater Temple. She refused to stay at the Temple and would only return at night, while spending her days in the Lower City. Unfortunately, this led to her being kidnapped from a Bell Tower after Mindflayers invaded. Over the course of the game, she begins to develop empathy and turns towards using her Necromancy and Blood magic to help instead of harm.  

 

What im struggling with is whether or not to make her a Mummy, an aasimar or a regular human. I could also make her a half dragon, but I'm not sure. Here is how she looks as each.

Halsin is automatically hostile bug?

I'm doing my second playthrough and for some reason when I find Halsin he's hostile. I've tried different dialog, I've tried knocking him out, but as soon as he comes into render distance his dot is red on my map. Would defeating the leaders and letting him free himself fix this? I don't want to not have Halsin

Necromancy of Thay work in progress

Me and my partner are making steady progress on this prop for an Astarion and Gale duo cosplay we're planning.

The mouth in the pictures looks substantially wider than it does in real life due to my shitty camera work lol. We've got a long way to go and a few layers of paint, but it's coming along better than expected.

I took a dremel to a skull decoration and we found a finance book that will not be missed.

We're not sure what we'll do for the gems yet, but I'll post as we go.

Instantly max Level Bug?

My friend in Japan started a multiplayer game with me in America, and as soon as I talked to Us we recieved 757k exp and every party member was instantly level 12. Everytime we do anything we get 757k exp even tho we are maxed. We have no mods and are both new to the game. I made a druid build and they made a ranger.

Is this normal for multiplayer, or did we accidentally break the game?

I made Karlach cosplay.

I made Karlach cosplay ❤️‍🔥🐻

Karlach got a special place in my heart. I have been experienced some specific things about her too after I play BG3 for a while.

Her soft side is cute. I love that of her.

And I love her in a hide armour. She's looking like a giant teddy bear in it.

Mod Preview -- STAV

Does your character creation always take forever because you can't decide what tattoo to use? Hate being limited to just one at a time? Does figuring out how to use a glowmap and set a color by sRGB values drive you bonkers?

Meet Susan! Susan is here to tell you about STAV, brought to you by u/EvlSnailofDestrktion and Nzx!

STAV is an upcoming alternative to UTav, KAVT, or CCO. You'll set your base face tattoo in the CC Menu as usual (or your mirror). Any tattoo/makeup/etc atlases you previously had that are KAVT compatible will also be compatible with STAV; you'll just need to do a quick simple rename of your files, and drop them into the correct folders. No editing in photoshop or GIMP required.

Mod Features:

  • Up to three separate face tattoos at once, one with glow effect
  • Up to three separate body tattoos at once, one with glow effect
  • Capable of reading a head tattoo atlas containing up to 93 images
  • Capable of reading a body tattoo atlas containing up to 60 images
  • Body scars independent of body textures
  • NO tattoo switcher mod needed
  • The STAV menu is also accessible in Photomode!

Other than Script Extender, STAV does not have any requirements or dependencies. (It will interface with MCM however, so you can tick the setting to auto-open in photomode if you want to.) By not using virtual textures for the scars, body scars and body textures can be used together without conflicts.

A Universal Patcher, just like the one for KAVT, will be releasing as well, so you can use your modded heads.

Yes, the Orin swirlies are animated and do swirl! I asked about the textures (I wasn't sure if it was due to a setting on my end) and was told they're currently low res, and should be updated for release.

As a die-hard KAVT junkie, I was really hesitant to try something new, but y'all, I think I'm sold. I'm really excited to be able to share this with you -- keep an eye out in the next day or two for the live release!
