Baldurs Gate Shadowheart - Blog Posts

Welcome In!

Hey everyone! Thanks for stopping by my little corner of the internet. My name's Blue. Here, you can find all my writing in one place, as well as my rules for requests. I hope you enjoy your stay!

FYI: This blog is 18+. If you do not have your age in your bio, I will block you.

Rules:

This blog is my safe space, and by extension, I want it to be other people's safe space, too. I will not tolerate any sort of hateful messaging or discriminatory language. If you have critiques of my writing, I always love feedback, but remember that I'm human too, so please be kind to me and others. I'm down for a healthy debate on any fandom topic, and I love hearing other people's opinions about characters or plot elements. Let's just keep it civil!

Celebrating the new patch with my party from the first campaign :3 Love them! <3

I feel like this was only briefly touched by a few people a couple months ago but it lives rent free in my head so now I need to spill.

Baldur's gate companions but make them self aware.

Dnd is already a game on crack and bg3 is probably no exception.

In game there already some lines that are vaguely 4th wall breaking, the first one is obviously with Karlach who we so far know has a scene where she asks questions about her, us, and the game. And sometimes you might be able to catch some characters finish talking only to then look over towards the camera, *cough, cough, Astarion, Raphael, cough*.

So many options to choose as to HOW they got the self-awareness is probably a goldmine for writers

The tadpoles is the first that comes to mind. Mindflayers travel between planes of reality as is, so I don't doubt that the little hitchhiker in their heads could tell if some plane shifting is going on with Tav.

My personal favorite, Save Scuming. In a game with literally a hundred hours or more of content were you are actively encouraged to replay it different ways. I would not be shocked that over the course of the hundreds of saves you reloaded because the dice didn't roll in your favor or new campaigns you started that eventually all the pieces start clicking into place for some of the companions.

Honestly there could be more but I'm drawing blanks of ideas but I might be tempted to write about the self-aware from constantly saving because that seems like fun.

I’ve had this sitting in the drafts for a while but I haven’t been able to Baldurs Gate as much as I’d like this past month so here’s some Lae’Heart for the soul

We’re fighting Ketheric Thorm and no one is taking it seriously.

Shadowheart painting I made for a friend’s birthday

I’m not adding Wyll, because he won the last pull!!! Click here to see the last result

I may redraw the old drawing

My Bg3 Modern Au Head-cannons

Meadow (my Tav): She’s trying to figure life out, she’s working at a flower store until her music gets off the ground

Wyll: Dance/Aerobics instructor, his dad wanted him to be a politician. He also does community theater and musicals in his free time

Karlach: 100% rides a motorcycle, Does peircings at a tattoo parlor, and is on a women’s rugby team

Shadowheart: Meadow’s concert buddy, and she works at a doggy day care

Lae’zel: she’s a bartender (because that would be funny) and is on the same Rugby team as Karlach. I can also see her as a martial arts instructor

Gale: He’s still a magic teacher at a magic academy. And I think it would be funny if he showed off his book collection on social media, like his actor in real life

Astarion: He went to law school, but then he was turned into a vampire, now he lives in Meadow’s attic while he figures things out. He embroiders in all his free time.

Bonus!

Halsin: He’s a social worker, definitely not based off this one fan comic series I read. And he volunteers at the Humane society and orphanage in his free time. I’m not sure I’ll do this, but I can see him fostering kids

I finished Shadowheart’s story line like over a week ago?

This song is her

Shadowheart is done, next up and the last one is Lae’zel

Wyll and my Tav // Astarion // Gale // Karlach

That’s pretty much how the tiefling party went for Meadow

Wyll plus my Tav chibi

Astarion chibi

Ps: sorry for my chibi style being inconsistent, I’m working on it
