I finished the single test earring today and had to just find somewhere to share it!
I love how it came out, now to make more!

Circle of the Land Druid, and future Astarion + Halsin kisser 🫶🏼💜

My favorite chaotic good girlie (marked NSFW for last picture)

Doing a resist the urge run with the chocolate edition mod installed I want to post how he looks at the beginning and end of each act to see how different he looks through the game

The only mod used was for the face, its that famous mod people used to make "Evelyn"

Behold.
Adventures with drow.
The PS5 mods have changed the whole game for me.

Aerea, my current dark urge, tiefling draconic sorcerer. I saw the draconic scales mod added to console and couldn’t resist starting again. Currently still in Act 1 🖤

I shared one of my favourite Tavs earlier, so I wanted to show the other one I really love. This is Sorrin, my draconic-sorcerer and seldarine drow! She's romancing Lae'Zel and I'm almost done with act 3!

Sorry for the photo quality, idk why my laptop keeps compressing everything.

My last post had people sharing unnecessary opinions. Nobody needs to like my characters, but please just ignore my post if you don't. I don't want to hear about how you dislike aspects of my OC designs.

Lae'zel's romance has to be my favorite in the game (Behind Astarion's). I made Xan'del just for her and I have no regrets.

Obviously a Tiefling, for the golden horns, but also because Loki is a Frost Giant among the Asgardian, as the Tieflings are among the Druids and the other folks. Gave him a pale blue face for this frosty heritage.

He is a Sorcerer using mainly ice spells and illusions. I thought Wild Magic fits him best, as he is from another world, his Asgardian-learnt magic might do weird stuff in Toril.

Equipped him with two daggers. Still haven't found the Black and Sommer Green Dye, i think that would have fit him better. But his journey, burdened with glorious purpose, has just begun!

My little evil druid drow Felyna 🖤

Not sure who I wanna romance with her. Usually I go with Astarion, but I want something different. Might go for Gale.. or Minthara.

Some lore for my Tavs. I'm not that familiar with DND, please spare me.

1. Name: Nathrae.

Race: Lloth-sworn drow.

Romance: None.

Nathrae is Shurae's older sister and, in some ways, her mirror. She is a classic drow — cunning, vengeful, and evil, seeing her family and allies as stepping stones to power. Of course, she deeply reveres Lloth and was raised as a future priestess. However, to put it simply, she lost her place in the family after being involved with a human and giving birth to a half-drow child. The newborn girl was intended to be sacrificed, but she was saved by Shuri, who escaped with her to the surface. While Nathrae (after a drow-style whooping) didn't care about the child anymore, she loved Shuri (and is likely the only reason Shuri survived in the Underdark). However, to regain her privileges and achieve redemption, she must find the fugitives and kill them in the name of Lloth.

In game she just tries cause as much evil chaos as she can, while pretending to be a nice misunderstood drow who is definently disowned her evil community and just likes to help. Again - in the name of Lloth.

2. Name: Fenyra.

Race: Half-drow.

Romance: Karlach <3

Fenyra. That same unwanted child, dumped on the paladin who raised her and who was killed by Bhaal's cultists. A former cleric of Bhaal (in EA T_T), turned simple necromancer. She joined the cult after being brainwashed — but not completely, as her plan was to slaughter the Bhaalists in revenge for her adoptive father (Bhaal appreciated her murderous plan, and she retained her cleric magic). Besides, she actually had to kill both innocent and guilty people, and she enjoyed it (after all, the Bhaalists were partly successful in brainwashing her). A little strange, a little creepy, very cold and serious. No matter, Karlach will straighten her out.

She succeeded in her goals at the time of the game and became a hermit in the cemeteries until she was abducted by the illithids.

Her relationship with Shuri is quite predictable - a role model, gratitude, long waits by the window, high hopes, replaced by bitterness, resentment and disappointment.

In the game, she acts rather cynically and practically (she stole Meyrina's dead husband and made a deal with Ethel, for example), but overall, she's on the good path (for Karlach's <3). The tieflings are lucky.

3. Name: Shurae.

Race: Seldarine drow.

Romance: Gale!

Shuri isn't my main Tav, so if she's not the main character, her lore revolves around her confrontation with Nathrae and her attempts to rebuild her relationship with Fenyra (like, finding her, for starters).

Shuri also loved Nathrae, but at the same time, she took her protection and help for granted, lol. They're currently trying to pull each other over to their side of "redemption" (but it's a lost cause). Shuri is also seeking redemption after her story with her ex. Ultimately, one simply has to kill the other, and Shuri understands this better than Nathrae and considers her sister a naive fool if she thinks she can get everything she wants from Lloth and the drow society without breaking twice and making sacrifices.

When Shuri realized Fenyra was in danger, she went looking for her. And although their relationship are broken, Shuri has hope of repairing it. But she's not so good at things like apologizing and admitting guilt.

Once part of a bardic death cult, Shada stumbled upon something that left her scarred, drained to an unhealthy pallor and outcast as a heretic. The tadpole is the least of her worries.

She's a shy girl. Has a crush on Withers. As you do. 🤣

This was the only playthrough I didn't finish, which is fitting since she's named after an unfinished Doctor Who story. That said, I might give her a re-run and finish what she initially started. Might even save her little "accident" for the Shadow-Cursed Lands.

Edit: preset i used was from the Mantis ' Face Preset Collection I

She's a cute gnome cleric named Mable. Please be nice..

Half Seladrine Drow and half human. I made up a rough backstory for him for roleplay purposes. Anyways, I've finished the game twice before but realized I've been RUNNING through the story before. Therefore, with him I have taken my time, and therefore, I've gotten very attached lol. Hes actually ver.2 of the same character. Deleted the first version of his run because I was so unsatisfied with it. But his 'beta' version is his Dream Guardian!

I'm leaning towards option 3 since it seems mostly choppy but keeps the texture of act 1 and 2 but I'm open to any suggestions
