(x) God's fav, most interesting girl, you know how it goes

I wanted to see how long I could go without finding out about Shadowhearts Shar worship and

She comes clean when you reach the shadow curse. No prompting. Could have fully kept it to herself. She was probably itching to tell Tav about it. I just love how bad she is at being Sharran. Struggles to keep major secrets, and is hopeful despite everything that's happened to her. She really goes against all the tenets of Shar, huh?

Shar Tenets:

Secrecy above all else - Pretty sure she can spill her secrets on day 1 of knowing Tav

Love is a lie, only hate endures - She can fall in love, clearly loves animals, and I mean... look at the screencap. She's so hopeful that she's loved by her Goddess. She wants to believe in love so badly.

Light is blinding. Only in darkness do we see clearly - She's shown to frequently reach towards the light, to the point where Shar cursed her with her mark to dissuade her from doing it

Transcend fear and loss - She's the only companion (that I know of) who has such a strong fear she gets a debuff from being around it, she struggles to accept the loss of her memories, and is shown over and over to be a hopeful person. Not really qualities you'd expect from someone who's 'transcended fear and loss'

All is meaningless. And nothing endures - She gets sentimental when you give her the statuette. It clearly means a great deal to her. Even in the screencap, she's trying to find meaning in her resistance to the shadow curse, and she also talks about hoping there's meaning in the mark on her hand

I could go on and on (and have in another post whoops I keep doing this) but my point is: She's terrible at being Sharran and the way she's written is incredible

God’s favorite princess and the most interesting girl in the world✨

playing baldur's gate isn't enough. i need to kiss my whole party on their foreheads

I didn't expect to be sobbing at 4am bc of Baldur's Gate 3's ending but here we are

2h practice featuring Shadowheart

baldur's gate 3 is just. break the abuse and trauma cycle. being forced to believe a certain way is wrong. there is more outside of the small window that i perceived the world to be. i will create my own identity. maybe the people i thought loved me did not, in fact, have my best interests at heart. i need to find the clown's body parts so the drag queen can resurrect him. my destiny is not written in stone.

"Better let these fuckers know I'm back. And this time, I'm not alone." 🔥

cannot stand the fact that there are people out there who i love that i don’t even say happy birthday to anymore! there are people living and exsist in this world who i knew better than anyone…and i don’t know how their pets are, i don’t know if they still argue with their father anymore. there are people who i love and will continue to love who live on without me. and maybe i’m a passing thought in their mind but do they know that i love them? that i loved them? that i miss the smell of their house? that i forgot what color their bedroom walls were. that i miss the sound of their mother working in her home office…do they know that my loves spreads endlessly? do they know?!!!!!!!
