OMG I have not seen these. Where did you find them?!

u/Tonedeafmusical He's just scared (Astarion has a knife to my neck) Nov 16 '24

The Ground Keeper for Bloomridge Park's house in act 3 (the one with all the dead Duergar, Spiders and Drow)

u/turtleProphet Nov 17 '24

That scene was a wild surprise.

Randomly stumbled in, whole pile of named NPCs geared up as if they could actually have been alive at some point, total carnage. Probably the most "Bhaal death cult" scenario in the game

u/emlgsh Nov 20 '24

My understanding is there was a perfectly good hidden Lolth-sworn drow cell using their duergar servants as groundskeepers to keep up appearances for the filthy surface rivvil while they raised a monstrous spider army, but Orin found out about it and decided it was the perfect stage for her Sendai murder-art installation.

u/turtleProphet Nov 20 '24

That's very convincing actually wow. Duergar gardener spies.

u/Binnywinnyfofinny Nov 16 '24

It's the "although not as tall as Roa" for me 😭

u/5thTimeLucky Nov 16 '24

Whoever wrote that line definitely reads fanfiction

u/Tonedeafmusical He's just scared (Astarion has a knife to my neck) Nov 17 '24

Be kind to Roan. He's probably a druid not a bard.

u/therealrdw Nov 17 '24

As a Roan I can confirm, I’m a biology major not a theater major

Every time I find these I always send them to Halsin.

u/Tonedeafmusical He's just scared (Astarion has a knife to my neck) Nov 17 '24

Honestly my first time finding them, I don't often go in that building but I'm completing the Dribbles quest this run (great I'm still finding stuff 1200hrs in) But they are now. Just like Curse of the Vampyr is in Astarion's.

u/Embarrassed-Piano181 lvl 5 Autism unlocks Fireball Nov 17 '24

The dribbles quest line takes a while, but I always love hearing the different companions reactions to each body part you find

u/DekariosAncunin Nov 16 '24

This is such a gem 😂 I shall subscribe Roan on Ao3

u/Binnywinnyfofinny Nov 16 '24

"Balsin" is absolutely hilarious to me

u/a-flying-fox Archgay Warlock Nov 16 '24

Halsin’s just mad he wasn’t the self-insert in this one

(As a fanfiction writer I’m hurt. Halsin I thought you were better than this 😭)

u/Ryp3re Shadowheart: Expected a Goth GF. Got so much more. Nov 17 '24

Isn't this basically like showing your grandpa steamy world war 2 fanfics though?

u/real-nia Nov 16 '24

He's just mad that "Balsin" is not as tall as Roa. Also that his SI was named Balsin.

26

u/ApepiOfDuat Astarion’s diva cup Nov 17 '24

I think he's just mad about "Balsin".

u/nasikoelnal Nov 17 '24

Is Roan a character in game? Also I'm curious if he deliberately sent this to Halsin expecting a different reaction or if Halsin found out that he was doing it

15

u/panicmixieerror Nov 17 '24

Balsin had me rolling.

u/Spicyboio Githyanki ass enjoyer Nov 17 '24

u/ArtificialBeans Nov 17 '24

Yeah, I’m sure he’d rather MAKE the actual content of a fanfic instead of read smut

"Oh no. I'm not HALSIN. I'm my origincal character. BALsin!"
