      I’ve got a Sel-Drow that’s a Dragonic Storm Mage and I’m keeping her for Astarion, I think.

      Ha! I was also playing a Sel-Drow in one of the campaigns I just totally wiped in an attempt to clear the terrible bugs I was having and she was the one romancing Astarion.

      I think they made sense in my head because I was like, “Yes, yes. Two characters who belong to a race that most despise and react to with horror, but who aren’t like those other Drow/vampires. They will be terribly mistrustful and snarky with each other right up until they start relating hard and then the 😍 😍 😍 😍 starts. Yessssssss, this will be delightful.”

      Sadly I lost 45 hours of play, still didn’t work, probably trading in this laptop because FML. I was almost finished Act 1. I’m planning on recreating the run as best I can so I can finish out those plotlines. Need my ridiculous vampire elf romance back.

        Astarion with the Glove of Thievery, Happy and Silver Pendant (Guidance Cantrip) feels so mean against traps and locks.

        +9-12 on a roll with Advantage. Those poor chests stand no chance against Vampdaddy. 😞

          There are a few traps I’ve run into with a difficulty of 30, but otherwise… yes.

          pick locks

            Omg literally the first ones that could be a challenge 😮

            Getting the Monk engine to work has been satisfying.

              @Duke-Whisky There some traps that are also difficulty 30.

              First time a challenge rating made me sweat.

                @Testament - Yeah those sounds like the first ones that might be challenging, else Asterion does make exploring a little easy mode when given some specialist gear.

                  Convinced my bioDad to buy the game and this man goes to bed at 9:30 pm only calls me on the weekends and he calls me

                  on this past Monday

                  at 9:38 pm

                  leaves a voicemail saying ‘I have questions about Baldur’s Gate’.

                  So I call him the next morning:

                  “I CAN’T JUSTIFY KILLING PALADINS FOR A CHATTY TALL ONE-HORNED DEMON CHICK THAT’S ON FIRE.”

                  Well that’s fine, Dad, more for me. And also you’re missing out.

                  He’s having a hard time with figuring out what the ‘right’ answers are for his character and I told him he has to let go of that. It’s not supposed to be obvious, buddy.

                  He’s enjoying himself. It’s a deep, story-driven, complicated game and I love how wildly varying so many of the playthrough stories appear to be.

                    Shadowheart and I shared a similar reaction to Karlach

                      @somasatori I DID NOT HAVE HER IN MY PARTY AT THE TIME RRRGHHHH. Astarion talking about how she can break him in half made me laugh so hard.

                        Look, there is a reason I call her Mommy Karlach even though it’s not like that.

                          It may be helpful to remind him that Paladins in 5e aren’t good, they’re idealogues.

                              In my encounters with her, Min seems to have this problem with chasms. It’s absolutely tragic.

                              I woke up feeling so good, I think I’d better call in sick/ I need a personal trainer to help me hold my drink
                              I plan to be spontaneous next time we meet/I’m putting off procrastinating until next week
                              I’ll get onto it when I give a shit

                                As far as I’m concerned, Minthara’s purpose in life is being robbed of her armor.

                                    Apparently there’s a mod to give Gale magic exploding underpants, and I find this way funnier than I should.

                                      Also F10 = hides the UI and getting screenshots during close-up scenes is so good.

                                        @Duke-Whisky first of all, you look great in that hat.

                                        second of all, I just learned right now that cats keying f10 is what turned off the UI when I was mid fights and i restarted the game to get the UI back multiple times for no reason.

                                        let it be a challenge to you

                                          Interestingly enough, Shadowheart’s underwear are recognised as grenades in certain parts of the code…
