I have a playlist for just generic Durge x Astarion, but specifically for Ravahana x Astarion I have two songs.

Bring Me to Life - Evanescence
Give - Sleep Token

Losing Astarion would absolutely gut Ravahana. I don’t believe she would ever recover from it; she would just give up or go mad.

If the manner of death were homicide, the world would burn in her desire for vengeance.

The last couple of sentences say it all about Ravahana. She can be emotionally reserved and try to keep her feelings, if not her thoughts, to herself, but once she trusts someone, she is incredibly loyal and will do anything to protect them. Astarion is the only one that gets even close to full access to her feelings, and even then he sometimes has to pry it out on her when it is something that she’s scared to admit.

Adding in a photo of how these supposedly combine together, and good gods, it fits.

Even if it sometimes makes her eye twitch when absolutely nothing goes according to plan. 😅

😂
Ravahana is a Scorpio Sun, Leo, Rising, and Leo Moon.
Totally basing those off of mine, because I actually want to put more thought into to what fits Thalra and Irann (Tav wood elf).

But the Leo Rising and Leo Moon completely explains, in my mind, why she somehow ended up as de facto leader!

Someone reaches out to ask why I'm not saying "there's __no evidence__ that circumcision causes autism, wouldn't that be more accurate?"

Bad actors, liars, charlatans, cheats, and fakers have figured out how to exploit the nuanced precision of that kind of science communication on a scale....

D&D is not for everyone, that’s for sure. I loved it when I played, but I have yet to experience 5e.

Astarion to her the next moment:

Ravahana wouldn’t mind being trapped with Astarion, as long as they were able to keep a fire going.
Pretty sure if she had to be trapped with Wulbren, they might find him tied up & lodged headfirst in a snow bank in short order, though.

Xeha is obvious who they want to be with during a snowstorm (+hates being in close proximity of Gale). Their long ears also gives them a major debuff against the surface land's cold temperatures.

Meanwhile Riseheart probably has Astarion as both of the answers.

I have been trying to reconfigure my mods for #BG3 so that I can play again without the game crashing, and fixing the lid order, but I am finally saying screw it.

I have video and pics of my Tavs & Durges, and I’m able to start new games, so I will just start over. 😭

Makes me wonder if this is why I finding that I am throwing myself headlong into dressing up for Halloween as if I am going to try cosplay, or if I know it would just piss my mother off to no end if she were still alive.

CW: death, grief

(1/)Astarion and Courage are somewhere between bittersweet and blissful. Their relationship isn’t perfect, but they are so happy and healthy together. They get 88 perfect years together. But she’s mortal, and he’s a vampire. She dies at 113, old & comfortable in bed.

scourges of the priestesses of her House, from times that her control wavered enough to cost them something.
Sometimes she feels the need to punish herself for not having iron control, which is why she volunteered & didn’t mind being whipped by Abdirak. She thought she deserved it.

Thalra has the tattoos that you can see in the screenshot that are on her arm, chest, and sternum, but she also has scarring on her back and the backs of her legs.
As a way to teach her to control the wild magic surges, she was whipped every time she lost control. Some of the scars are from the

Thalra also hides even deeper just how lonely she is and how afraid she is of letting anyone get close.
There is no one that she would choose to share any of this with at this point, though I can see her starting to open up a bit after Nere.

Thalra was brought up to believe that certain emotions were strength, but most were naught but weakness. So while she doesn’t hide behind a literal mask she does use a figurative one.
She buries her trauma deep behind that mask as well as fear that she will never have a home b/c of her wild magic.

Astarion is probably the only one that she has ever admitted any of this to, and only after they had a fight. She told him during that she didn’t want to burden him, or anyone else, with what goes on in her head. 🥺

Ravahana does wear a figurative mask. She has imposter syndrome, so she fakes the confidence that everyone sees, and hides how vulnerable & inadequate she feels; especially after the Netherbrain.
She had no clue how to express her emotions or even how to put a name to anything other than anger.

Because I had it working fine yesterday

So help me if windows firewall broke the game because it decided to randomly block features of BG3, I am gonna be so pissed. 🤬

The night Elminster came to camp, Seraphina got incredibly drunk and went on a huge, emotional rant about Elminster, Mystra and - most importantly - Gale and the orb.

Shadowheart put her to bed while the entire group, who had never seen her like that before, just sat in surprise.

his eyes widen for a sec. Thalra kept her emotions locked down, rarely letting anything show, so there were definitely whispers around the camp that night.

Thalra *really* wanted to end Nere, and that was only with one memory pertaining to him.

If they hadn’t been busy fighting duergar at the time, they would have stared at Thalra absolutely losing her shit when her wild magic dropped a resilient sphere around her as she was trying to fire off some magic missiles at Nere.
Astarion was the first to clock it b/c he was closer, but it made

I haven’t been in a real D&D game for so gods damned long, but Baldur’s Gate 3 has me feeling the same way. I even bought the 5e core books & new dice. (Haven’t played since 3.5e)

Gods yes!

The clean install of BG3 (and subsequent reinstall of mods) worked! I can play again, and my saves are good.

Playing on Vaelthra until I have to leave for work.

She would NOT give an inch to The Emperor, but it’s a good possibility that she would try to dominate the Elder Brain and be the worst possible version of herself.
