Summary
Two years after the defeat of the Absolute, Rayne (our Tav) is kidnapped by a mysterious man. With the help of returning faces and new ones, Astarion finds his beloved Tav. But the mysterious man seems to have other plans for not just our saviors, but all of Baldur's Gate.

Summary
Halsin has every reason to hate Drow. From his time in the Underdark to Minthara’s “hospitality” at the goblin camp, they’ve brought him nothing but pain. So imagine his surprise—and confusion—when his savior from said camp is none other than a Drow. He tries to be civil, he really does. After all, she’s not quite like the others. She’s not sadistic, conniving, or bloodthirsty like those he’s known. Logically, he knows she had nothing to do with what happened to him all those years ago—but trust is harder to build than resentment.
Vyssira is nothing if not a survivor. She survived Menzoberranzan. She survived her parents’ cruelty. She survived Baldur’s Gate. And when everything was taken from her again and again, she survived that too. Now, with a mind flayer tadpole in her skull and a ticking clock toward ceremorphosis, she has no choice but to rely on others who share her fate—and a druid who wants nothing to do with her. Maybe, this time, survival could mean healing too.
AKA the super self-indulgent enemies to lovers character study about Halsin and his feelings towards drow, because I don't see it getting explored as much as it should. Be the change you want to see in the world, kids.

Summary
What makes a person?
Is it a name? Something attached to you since birth? Something a god or nature provided?
If that is the case, the bard is unsure if she can be called a person. Names are like a job title to her, like gauze, like a hat: something fictional, disposable, and a prop.
Jane Doe, Zoe De Schanel, Jessica Day, Summer Finn, and many more have come and gone for The Bard.
She honestly cannot even be sure if she can refer to herself as “The Bard”. Does she have the abilities of one? Yes, but rarely are her original works received well and even more rarely is she a capable spellcaster. All she really has is a tongue she dipped in silver and an uncanny ability to pump out paintings at lightning speed.She is incredibly ill equiped for adventure but keeps fucking getting tossed into it. Again and again and again.
Tav in this is a girl failure who tries to be a girlboss. College of Eloquence Bard. She sucks but we love her.Platonic relationship focus
Tav will be "Tav"
More focus on character interactions and moments
Tav’s backstory does involve actual important people in the Forgotten Realms to maximize angst -

Summary
Aster has never been in love, and she never will be. It’s not that she doesn’t want to be… it’s just that, well, that would mean trusting someone in ways she doesn’t know she can. Plus, the world is ending! She has more important things to worry about. Like being abducted by mindflayers and having some sort of mutant parasite put in her head, for starters. And between herself and the unlucky companions who have also found themselves in that unsettling situation, they all need to get it together and save the world… or something.
So, no. She’s never been in love and never will be.Or
Friendly neighborhood dnd/bg3 obsessor (me) finally lost their mind enough to write a fanfic about it…
ft. Aster, a cross between my dnd star druid and my bg3 character who is a mess of multiclasses because I was indecisive. This is half novelization of the game (and Gale’s romance line), half whatever I feel like writing :) Enjoy!- Language:

Summary
Yesterday, Linda was on her way to Target to buy a birthday present for her granddaughter.
Today, Linda is infected with some parasite in the most horrifying environment imaginable. Even worse, she's surrounded by a band of misfits: a magical bearded man who talks too much, an odd little Goth girl with bangs that desperately need a trim, an angry alien lady who won't quit sharpening her sword, a disturbingly pale elf who needs some bronzer, and a heroic young man with one eye.
This can't be real... can it? Surely she's having a psychotic break.
Tomorrow, she'll wake up and this will all be some kind of nightmare. She's sure of it.

If It's Blood That You Want From Me, You Can Empty My Arteries by Pandasss404

Summary
Alfira seemed to still be running damage control, with Astarion's smear campaign still going viral online, and with every news station jumping on the band wagon with the metaphorical torches and pitchforks, it was obviously becoming extremely hard to keep venues from pulling out of what could become a reputation destroying deal.
Gale quietly stewed over it all once they had all boarded their train and Daggerford quickly flew by and became suburbs, then countryside. Astarion was letting him sit in his lap, ear pressed against his cold chest to simply hear the air entering and exiting his lungs, with no pulse to drown it all out. The wizard had adjusted to the silence of his lover's chest cavity very quickly, and now he barely registered it as a discrepancy between the vampire and everyone else he knew; it was just normal. And that was perfect. No abnormal behaviours, no unexpected differences, and no waiting for the other shoe to drop. It was just him, the lack of heartbeat he associated with his lover, and the blue sky to glower at as he thought about all the absolute bullshit being spread about his perfectly lovely partner online.

Summary
Baldur’s Gate ain’t a town for the soft-hearted. The land is wild, the people wilder, and there’s danger in the shadows where the sun never touches.
When caring, head-strong Ofelia uncovers a murderous plot, she must decide if she’s willing to risk everything - her friends, her home, and maybe even her life - to set things right. Between a power hungry mayor, silver tongued preacher, and blood thirsty mercenary, things are about to get messy.

Summary
She’s in hell. Literal hell, that’s the only rational explanation for what’s in front of her. Imp-like creatures screech and swoop around her and the…tentacle ship she’s on. Everything’s on fire, the ship is falling and she’s going to die.
Staying in that pod probably would have been kinder than watching everything crash and burn in real time. Before she can stumble to her knees a dark blur rushes above her and then in front of her and—
“What the fuck.”
The alien is speaking but she has no idea what they’re saying and they look increasingly angry the longer there’s no reply. But what can she say? Hello, I’m not from wherever this place is. Do you know how I can get back?

Summary
Karlach‘s gaze lingered on the pink tiefling. The barbarian had spent the past years dreaming of the day she could escape Avernus, how come she was now infatuated with the only woman that couldn‘t wait to go back. If she really dug past all her fear and resentment for Zariel and anything that happened in Avernus, Karlach had to admit that she admired Skylla for it. Skylla who was ready to fight for the weak, unlike Karlach who desperately tried to do good now after years of being Zariel‘s attack dog. Really, Karlach pitied herself, but admitting that would only make way for even more rage to burn inside of her.

My Poems Know What You Did In The Dark by dramatic_chipmunk
Fandoms: Baldur's Gate (Video Games)
18 Jul 2025
Tags
Summary
This is a collection of poems from my OC's, Octavia, notebook—a personal glimpse into her journey through the events of the game.
These pieces focus on the relationships she builds with her companions, going from fully distrusting them to becoming something akin to found family.
Since she falls in love with Astarion, a lot of the poems revolve around him. Their relationship is complicated, messy, and full of highs and lows, and I wanted to explore that in her voice.
While it does help paint a fuller picture if you read the main fic Marked by Fate in which she is the protagonist, this can also be read as a stand-alone.

Summary
You are a bard cursed with immortality, who has also sworn off ever letting their voice be heard again. Now you’re stuck with a tadpole in your head, let’s hope you can navigate this whole situation.
~~
It’s a night at a tavern you can’t remember the name of, playing a simple slow song for the patrons. One in particular catches for eye just so, with his pale hair, sharp features, and upturned eyes; chatting with another, glass in hand. The wine inside flowing with his motions, almost falling out a few times. You get so engrossed in him that you miss a note for the first time in a long time.

Summary
Title inspired by the Bastille song of the same name.
Tav has been through a lot, the elder brain being only the recent hardships in a long line of others. There wasn't a time she could remember that she wasn't the one shouldering the hurt and pain of others. The whole illithid journey took the most toll on her out of it all. However, she was past it now. Now she spent her days hanging out with Rolan and his siblings, only shouldering the weight of an unspoken crush. So when she finally decides to confess her feelings, and Rolan seems less than thrilled about the idea, she runs.
Or:
Tav has a mental breakdown
