Current BG3 OCs

Dei

- Drow (Lolth sworn), ranger/paladin. Redemption!Durge. Perpetually tired and in a constant state of 'too old for this shit'. Will bite if provoked.

Tav

- Human, cleric of Selúne. Sweetest little baby. Lived in the temple her whole life, first time she leaves? Captured. I'm sure that's not going to affect her later in life at all.

The Dark Urge

- No actual name. Knows he's Half-Drow. Made of magic and the blood of innocents. Constantly feels like he's on an acid trip. Sad boi, doesn't quite get social cues.

Cathlyne

- The Princess. High Elf Bard. Ran away from home to join the circus. Realised she's clumsy as all hell but can play the violin like no one else. Doesn't understand money, is fairly clueless but stick her in court and she'll thrive. Backhanded compliments are her love language.

If one of your character was suddenly gifted Life in This World, who would you hope it was, and who do you hope it wasn't and why?

Hello! Hi! I love this!! and considering the hyperfixation on BG3, let's go!

I hope it would be Tav, I just know she would cry at the aquarium with me and that is something I need in my life, plus she would be so fun to paint & drink with!!

Would not want The Dark Urge to pop up on a random Tuesday, it's like a 50/50 chance of murder and uncontrollable sobbing to any social interaction and I just don't like those odds.

I turn 30 next month so here’s what I learned in my 20s:

—don’t work for startups, they’re always one ‘innovative idea’ away adding ‘sell your kidneys on the black market’ to your job description.

—keeping a collection of basic OTC medicine on you will save your life one day. I recommend Advil, Imodium, and TUMS.

—those little single-use glasses cleaning wipes are 1000% worth the money

—overly self-depreciating jokes just make people uncomfortable, wean yourself off of them

—you can buy dehydrated mini marshmallows in bulk online and they’re a godsend for hot cocoa

—people don’t care if you have fidget toys on your desk they just want to play with them

—try to go to bed BEFORE the existential ennui kicks in

This is all GREAT. I turned 40 last week, so permit me to add what I learned in my 30s:

  • keep on not working for startups
  • sometimes there comes a point where the thing (fandom, hobby, friendship, romantic relationship) you loved no longer brings you joy. And that's okay. Try to mourn the loss, take joy in the memories, and don't burn any bridges in case ten years go by and you find yourself back in that fandom/hobby/relationship again
  • it turns out that (ugh) moderate regular exercise is (spit) good for you. The sooner you make it part of your life, the easier it'll be
  • related: if you throw yourself into a new exercise regime too hard and too fast, without stopping to rest or consider whether a particular move is good for you ... well, shoulder injuries are painful and consults with orthopedic surgeons are expensive
  • knees are bastards too
  • don't even get me started on ankles
  • there may come a time when your digestive system is too fragile for ibuprofin. I'm sorry
  • one day you're gonna wake up and realise you no longer give any fucks about some things that used to bother you
  • on the other hand, you might be alarmed to realise what you still give a fuck about
  • never get down on the floor without an exit strategy for getting back up

I turn 50 this year. what I have learned in my 40s:

  • "loving yourself" is less of a feeling and more of an action. you can start doing it any time and it will make your life better and better as you go on
  • this will happen incrementally - be patient
  • along those lines, if you haven't started making an active effort to quit shit-talking yourself, suck it up and do it
  • no, shut up. do it. "but it's haaaaard!" don't care. do it.
  • whether you like it or not, you are mortal and you need to go to the doctor for an annual checkup
  • stretch regularly - your future self will thank you
  • at some point you will encounter people much younger than you arguing passionately and incorrectly about history you personally remember and experienced
  • this will be infuriating and annoying
  • otoh, most other things just... will not matter to you as much
  • at some point you will shift from wanting to go out to being like "eh" and deciding to stay in. this is okay.
  • you will have absolutely no idea what The Youth are talking about and you will not care
  • but if you keep your mind open to new ideas you'll never be irrelevant
  • your company still doesn't love you - don't give them more than they pay you for
  • get a fucking hobby, especially a hobby that involves physically creating/handling something and/or moving your body in physical space. it will do you more good than you can imagine

Just turned 60 and let me say:

  • Find joy, every kind, it's always worth it
  • I'm talking that massive, never-ending Discord chat with your bestie? The one that makes you giggle through the day? It's not a "waste of time," it's what time was made for
  • If that's fanfic for your favorite characters who never even met on screen celebrate that!
  • If that's building a tiny fleet of snake villagers for your snake town and they just cover your mantel hell yes!
  • If that's collecting pillows and making a fort of them every weekend I'll be right over
  • Feeling and sharing joy is the whole point

This is too tempting…, so, I’m 74, and: don’t fund startups

Please keep stretching and exercise enough NOT to need an elaborate strategy to get up from the floor. IT MAY SAVE YOUR LIFE

Say bye to your employer as early as you possibly can, unless you really love your job. You won’t be sorry.

Keep doing the annual checkups 🙏🏼

Enjoy that fucking hobby you’ve acquired in your 50, or find something new. Do try new things & adventures.

Tumblr makes sense to me bc if i see something i like i get excited and hit the button to show other people and theres no weird unspoken social conventions my autistic brain doesnt understand. I can literally sit here and reblog 150 niche shitposts about harvest mice in an hour just bc they make me happy and i dont have to explain myself to anyone and i'll actually *gain* followers instead of just being called weird and downvoted or whatever its so cool

Considering The Dark Urge is my Gale romance play through, I like to think every time he allows Astarion to feed on him it's like a placating effect for when things don't go his way - like, Durge does something nice, or at least not maniacal, and Astarion does nothing but moan about for longer than he can deal with so he just turns mid whine and goes, "Yes, yes, that was a terrible thing, how sad - say, you wanna bite tonight?"

Just so Astarion forgets all about what he was complaining about.

I could be wrong, and I usually am, but the reason I like Gale so much is because he really reminds me of Alistair (DAO).

Just the slightly awkward but also incredibly sweet and silly personality is just, it's making me blush and go all gooey. And then the random lines he drops?? They knew what they were doing.

I dunno, could be a stretch but I'm only in the First Act for a Gale romance run and it's just something that's got me thinking.
