Over-the-hill bard
Might have to make this one my main if current trends (my actual main likely ending up on the discover feed and attracting either bots or the most un-nuanced humans ever) hold.

Literalism will end us all, good lord

Back on it again
Those Larian posts about how "X% of players did this thing Y times" are fun and all but they never really reflect how I play the game. And honestly, that's fine. #bg3

My beloved bard's first build was College of Whispers, circa 2019. That didn't work well in my brother's combat-heavy homebrew campaign, so after two sessions I switched to Swords. After all this time I may go back. www.tumblr.com/lutethebodie...

ending my senate campaign early due to revelations that my very first BG3 playthrough involved raiding the grove (i thought minthara was hot)

I don't know who else needs to see this, but I certainly did: WHIP WEAPONS IN BG3, FINALLY www.nexusmods.com/baldursgate3...
Whips Expanded
Belmont is back! Thanks to the skills and generosity of FrostyWalker, BG3 now has a full suite of functional Whips! This mod adds 8 Whips to the game.

A fic that's not a fic, because it's a short, first-draft, first person, [insert other fic culture sin here] and I won't have access to AO3 for like another week or so: www.tumblr.com/lutethebodie...

I need a BG3 mod that replaces Raphael with Mister MacPhisto. A better dresser, better singer, and better devil overall. There will be no questions taken on this topic.

I made a whole Tumblr series for this. "Minthara Judges My Tavs," as if she were being as opinionated on them as the companions. She doesn't even spare her swords bard lover. www.tumblr.com/lutethebodie...

Wondered if I could still make gifs from scratch in Photoshop, so I set up my degenerate gambler bladesinger with the flirty tiefling who likes to make bets. Thank you for your patience. #bg3 #baldursgate3

Tried to get a Mac to run VMWare Fusion for the first time in about 15 years. Tried Virtualbox first, which was a complete failure because I've discovered that age has drained my patience.

Talked to a 7th grader I know who didn't enjoy his DM running a game with "too many puzzles and not enough fights" and all I could think of was the Cheeky Quasit.

Keeping this to my "big four" so:

Cannor (bard) would blag his way out of it 9 of 10 times
Zafraia (rogue) would say "catch me and prove it, pig"
Ruy (cleric) would be too flustered to respond
Olini (ranger) would yell righteously, get arrested, and escape

I keep forgetting about these and yet I still "have to do" subclass, spells, and gear.

However since parts 1-3 haven't exactly been chartbusters I'll probably procrastinate further.
