What made Gortash begin to fall for Ophelia was her tenacity. She expresses herself through action so when she wants something or something needs doing, she's already half away there. She's planning, scheming, once she commits, she gives her all and she doesn't flatter even if the plan does.

#tavqotd Auggie was in love from day dot, though he had to work that out - chest cracked right open by Dolly's effusive, unabashed sincerity of self. There's nobody quite like them. Dolly was caught by his striking looks, shy but sharp demeanor, with kindness beneath. He gave them butterflies.

#tavqotd this has been asked before, but: What made the LI fall for your tav/durge? What first caught their interest? What made them fall in love?

#tabqotd Ah well lorcan was smitten the moment astarion pulled a knife on him, he kinda guessed about him being a vampire but it didnt bother him, as feelings grew lorcan knew hed do anything for him, he might be a bit too loyal and would even kill for him.

One more picture by @ajsemprini.bsky.social 🥰 I really love the colours and athmosphere in this 💜 Ziraun enjoys being carried by his vampire husband 😌 #Astarion #ZiraunOC #nsfw #bg3vp

Ziraun & Astarion by @ajsemprini.bsky.social 😍❤️‍🔥 I love all the tenderness and details in these, the hand holding, Astarion's smile, tender touches.. You captured their dynamics and love so well, thank you Aga 🥹❤️ #ZiraunOC #Astarion #nsfw #bg3vp

I had no inspiration for anything new, so I found a simple cute photo in the archives. 🖤 #astarion #baldursgate3 #bg3 #virtualphotography

Dalyria for the sketch requests 🦋 (I feel compelled to draw all the spawn together at some point) #bg3 #baldursgate3 #bg3art #bg3fanart #dalyria #vampirespawn #dnd

I might answer a billion years late to this tavqotd but. I am cooking. #bg3tav #wip #tiefling #dndart

#tavqotd #bg3queer Thank you all sharing your LGBTQIA+ OCs with their loved ones 😍 With all discourse going on, this was lovely to see ❤️ Your characters are wonderful 🫶 keep posting them

#tavqotd #Tavrieth Tavrieth looks very much like her mother, and also inherited her hair colour. Tavrieth also has her father's purple eyes. She also carries the compassion she learned from them 💜 and she also got her dad's sense of humour 😅

I went for a forest walk today ☺️🌲🍃

Sin (tiefling) and Tash (half-drow), reporting for Queer Duty! They're both giant plushie boys but Sin (pan) is pure chaos and gasoline, whereas Tash (gay) is still getting used to this whole 'people' thing again. #OCsinistral #OCtashen #bg3oc #queeroc #oc #sabiwrites #bg3tav

Being bisexual is so funny because people will go “how do you know you're bisexual if you haven't been in a relationship with (insert gender)” and then you get into a relationship with someone of that gender and they go “I knew you were actually gay/straight”

I see all my characters as bi/pan, mostly because I am... It's like the default setting 😂 Rani is in a m/f relationship with Gale, while Morgarsten has been making life complicated for *everyone* in camp. (Bards, amirite..?) But in the end, I think there's none he's closer to than his Starlight 🩶

#Bg3 #TavQOTD Thyrian is gay and (possibly, who knows) trans and with Astarion who's pan! :) Blythe is bi and a trans guy, and with Wyll, also pan! (Both of my ocs are also gay with my bf's ocs so no matter where you see em, its queer love lol)

#tavqotd #bg3queer #rach #astarion #halsin Rach is aego/demisexual and in poly-pan relationship with Astarion and Halsin. She's marries Astarion and Halsin is a lover to both of them. This is them three years after the brain's defeat, they live happily in Reithwin.

Cadyn, my NB, pan Tav 💕 They were also my first playthrough, so they're very dear to me 🥰 they knew Astarion for a brief time, before he was turned, and they find each other again nearly 2 centuries later and finally build a life together post game ☺️ #bg3 #tavstarion #astarion #bg3queer

wanna be a cowboy baby… monday is so gay forever and he’s never gonna stop

All of those who haven't seen the discourse, you're lucky 🫂 I've seen too much homophobic and biphobic comments lately, it's getting exhausting 😩 (and it's a sign for me I'm too much online)

#TavQOTD #BorisOC #SabreOC 1/? Boris feels he has much to learn about himself and more so he hasn't settled on anything yet. However, he's comfortable with the labels panromantic and demisexual. Sabre is his first and main love, his one constant. But he shares his heart in AUs, including but...

Jules and Viktor are both bisexual. They are both protective older brothers. They make sense to me.

bsky.app/profile/henn... #tavqotd #bg3queer Don’t know what happened, but just wanted to share more queer stuff to balance out whatever negativity was happening :)

bsky.app/profile/henn... #tavqotd #bg3queer 🏳️‍🌈QUEER! Grove and Astarion live in a cottage in the Feywild post game. Grove likes turning into his faerie dragin form and cuddling with Astarion. Grove nuzzles his way into Astarion’s shirt to rest and they both purr like cats.

This here is my main Tav: Xhaydia who is non-binary, polam- & trans. Pictured along w/ them is their (future) wife Karlach + gf Shadowheart (whom they both affectionately call Moonlight). It took a lil while for them all to nail their dynamic together while saving the world, but extremely worth it

My main durge Neena is pan and briefly dated Lae’zel before making things official with Astarion. Her brother Neri is gay and in an on again/off again relationship with Harper Geraldus. Rev is my gothyanki Shart romancer. Yay for gay! 💜🌈✨ #bg3queer #bg3 #baldursgate3 #tavqotd

#tavqotd #tavkid My durge Lilith's daughter Aurora is lesbian 🩷 she met her girlfriend, bard Mirabel, in a tavern she was working as a waitress, and asked Mirabel for a drink. Aurora's first kiss was with another girl when she was 16, and she already knew she's sapphic.

#tavqotd #Tavrieth Tavrieth is pansexual cis woman. Most of her past relationships has been with women, but she doesn't have any gender preferences. She's also polyamorous, and she's very loving and warm person 💖 She, Astarion and Halsin forms a throuple, two chaotic rogues and their druid 🥰

#tavqotd #ZiraunOC Ziraun is bi and demisexual cis man. He has slight preference for men, but when he falls for someone, the gender doesn't matter. His first love was a woman. Ziraun adores Astarion so much, and Astarion loves his nerdy husband back 💜 they found safety and comfort in each other.

#tavqotd #DurgeLilith Lilith is pansexual, and she's basically genderblind, gender doesn't affect her attraction at all. She also doesn't have any strict gender identity, and is fine with any pronouns. She and Astarion are learning together what 'normal' life and freedom means to them ❤️

Idk who needs to hear this but you’re not oppressed because Astarion might have a male romance in the book. You can whine about M/F ships being in the minority when they start labeling the romance section “straight romance.”

I post way more bloodweave stuff now but all my Tavs have been in mlm ships! First is Ryllae, my durge. Rystarion is probably my favorite personal ship 🥹 And the second is my first tav, Zackary. I believe that photo of them in the Shadow cursed lands was their first kiss! #tavqotd #bg3queer

My main ship happens to be m/f but #astarys is a double pan threat, make no mistake. Here are my others… Astarion x Ciaran, who is gay Tavethil x Nerys, who is pan with a preference for women Karlach x Nazik, who is a lesbian Gale x Nori, she only likes men but she’s a trans woman 😘 #tavqotd

More two cents on the A*tarion queer discourse: it's very clear a lot of people even with the queer community have not done the work to confront within themselves the internalized homophobia they've absorbed regarding queer men and expressions of queer male sexuality

[Ciaran x Gale] Redeem Durge softboy imprints like a baby duck on the hot nerd who was nice to him [Ilztaufein x Gale] Wizard Hubris x Wizard Hubris Supremacy [Muse x Astarion] Grifters to Lovers. My canon Astarionmance [Jack x Gale] Recently divorced father of two finally living his hot gay life

Portraying Astarion with male OC doesn't erase his pansexuality. Portraying Astarion with female OC doesn't erase his pansexuality. Same with nonbinary OCs. It's not that difficult, but I've read some weird and uncomfortable takes about this today.

Venom and Minthara - (sapphic) Aela and Lae'zel (sapphic) Sylas and Halsin (gay) Falon and Karlach (sapphic) 🏳️‍🌈

Gogash and Gale <3 A fun fact about them is they travel to Kara-Tur after getting married to visit the original home of Gogash's former monk master/teacher (art by paladintobey) #bg3queer #GaleDekarios #Galemancer #KiWeave

#tavqotd #bg3queer #sanguinesonata D'ylân is bi with a strong preference for men romantically and sexually. However, he'd never call himself gay as it'd feel wrong and disrespectful towards the few women he had a lot of fun with in the past. And, frankly, had the circumstances been different,

🧵 Things are getting very inflammatory around here…so I’m trying to keep it kind, but I’d like to encourage people who feel ‘persecuted’ for having tavs who are women with Astarion to have some perspective. I see denigrating comments occasionally, but “lynching” is a totally inappropriate….

#TavQOTD #BG3Queer Today I said, I need to do more with #XandrisOC, Rolim's ex who is a nonbinary tiefling bard. So I sat down and gave them some #BG3VP with their boyfriend #Sebastian. Gods, they are adorable! #VPSupport #VPInspired #VirtualPhotography #VPRepost #Dora'sVP #BG3VirtualPhotography

I just want to say, not everyone in online spaces are from usa. Not everyone are native english speakers. People who aren't native speakers, might not know cultural contexts for words that are obvious and clear for native speakers.

#tavqotd #dalamusstrighym Dal is bisexual! His first "love" was Kalanzar, a gay transmasc drow. It's complicated--If it was love for Dal, Dal doesn't know. It was love for Kal, but he never brought it up. Lolthite complications. Kalanzar secretly worshiped Eilistraee but had to be VERY-- 1/9
