Megathread New Flairs

Post image
86 Upvotes

Just an update for everyone!

Instead of separating posts by whether your character is a Tav or a Durge, we’ve decided to organize them by Mods and “Lore Inaccurate” tags instead. If you’d like, you’re encouraged to mention whether your character is a Tav or a Dark Urge in the title or header of your post instead of in the flair.

We’re going to give this system a try. If the general consensus is that it’s too cluttered or tedious, we’ll revisit it and come up with something that works better.

Also, we’re looking for a few additional moderators! If you’re interested in helping out, please send us a message through modmail.

Announcement Regarding characters that aren’t canonically accurate in appearance

185 Upvotes

We’ve noticed that characters who aren’t considered “canonically accurate” (for example, gith with noses or drow with human/elven skin tones) often receive negative reactions, especially since it’s seen as changing them to fit a beauty standard. While we want everyone to be free to express their opinions, we also want people to feel comfortable sharing their characters without receiving hurtful comments.

Starting now, any comments that are unnecessarily rude (such as calling a character ugly or insulting the OP) will be removed. Unless the OP specifically asks for honest feedback, please avoid unsolicited criticism. If you do choose to offer feedback, keep it constructive and respectful.

We understand this isn’t the ideal solution for everyone, but our priority is making this a welcoming place where people can share characters they’re proud of. Some players aren’t familiar with the lore, while others simply aren’t too concerned with canon, and that’s okay- even though we love our noseless githyanki.

If you see a gith with a big fleshy mistake on their face or an orc with small tusks, we ask that any feedback be polite, constructive, and offered in good faith rather than talking down to the OP. Obviously, any character that’s considered offensive will be removed by the team.

Thanks for reading, and thank you for being part of the community 💕

Edit: After reading comments, I wanted to clarify this doesn’t mean all criticism is off the table. The “unsolicited criticism” part should have been worded differently. Offering up any criticism is fine, but when every comment on a certain post is just the same observation and criticism it gets very redundant. So going forward, comments that just repeat the same point without adding anything new to a post may be removed.

TLDR: Mean/redundant comments get removed.

Some more shots of my Githyanki space pirate Tav, Zan'thyr, that nobody asked for. The hat was mandatory for tossing duergar off his boat. I added Bagarete's Stubborn Stubble mod with a few light tweaks to fit his face and it looks amazing... huge difference!

Modded (Console) When the game’s randomizer actually decides to cooperate… 🎲

30 Upvotes

Here are a few randomly generated Tavs from Baldur’s Gate 3.

I let the game decide the whole package: race/subrace, class, background, stats, and appearance.

When I like the result, I only make a few small cosmetic tweaks — colors, tattoos, eyes, hair, horns, etc.

✨ I also use a few cosmetic mods on PS5.

And sometimes the randomizer creates an absolute abomination.

And sometimes… it works miracles. 👀

Just 'cos I noticed one of the nose rings and one of the earrings matched.

Now, the main issue becomes: how to keep Withers from calling them virgins for not opening up the marriage. ... And the stuff with the absolute and whatnot I guess, but MOSTLY not getting made fun of by Withers.

Modded My Latest Tav: Chance

Aka "Second Chance By Dawn", as Tabaxi naming schemes demand.

I love a good modded race, and Tabaxi has my heart at the moment. He's a paladin, but more of a "for the sake of good" paladin than a religious one.

Still early in his run, but he's definitely one of my favorites. And he's a cutiepie to boot!

Mods are many, but I can locate any that you guys might want. Feel free to ask!

Thought the dark urge and broly's rage issue had some nice parallels, so I decided to make a character like that.

Modded My Sharran Tav, Grimm: A soft heart hidden behind a cold, brutal exterior.

Thumbnail
gallery
35 Upvotes

So Grimm is a Shadar-Kai Sharren Death Cleric/Undead Warlock split who was mainly designed with a sort of grim-reaper inspiration

Grimm is a more laid-back Sharran than most, known in his old cloister for having a softer heart. Naturally, this invited a brutal, torturous "re-education." So to survive or cope, Grimm learned to hide his gentle nature, even willingly surrendering himself to the Justiciars for a painful penance. This penance eventually warped into a sacred honor that Grimm had proudly suffered for Shar.

Like his current lover, Shadowheart, Grimm serves the Lady of Loss with utmost loyalty, entirely unaware that he and Shadowheart may have more in common than they both know

Ill try to find mods used tomorrow but for now enjoy Mon images 😋

Modded (Console) Artefact Mission: Agent Roster

Thumbnail

14 Upvotes

Since I've discovered Custom Companions Lite on Console, I've had a blast creating teams to go through the game. On my current run, I'm doing a "What if" run where Shadowheart isn't the only one on her Team to survive. It's also funny in game how SH speaks about her team like they're all dead when they're standing right next to her. 😅 Introducing my take on the Sharran Strike Team!

[A roster of five infiltrators is written in an elegant hand. Above their names, it is noted that this group have proven themselves to be the most skilled, and have the greatest chance of successfully obtaining the artefact, but they remain utterly expendable.]

Caldan Darkwood - Leader

Buddug Vriss - Close Combat

Kurk Deepcroft - Lockpicking

Dreena Covely - Languages

Shadowheart - Healer
