I Wanna Know What Candlekeep And The Friendly Arm Inn Would Look Like In The Bg3 Style

i can't get over this random dude writing self-insert friend fiction about the ketheric battle

ALSO BALSIN

💃🎵Jaheira, Jaheira🎵💃 finally got to finish this Shakira-inspired illustration for Jaheira ❤️

"But a bard can tell you all the rest. As for all the things they cannot... well. I shall just have to keep those for myself."

Yippee I finished it for the most part here she is

@eclipsedevune

Almost done making an rp blog yippee

Jaheira having a small case of baby fever is now added into my brain <3

Hazel is my favorite (no I don’t have a Druid bias why would you think that?)

iiiiii am working on That Long And Terrifying Alternate Timelines Fic as we all know and in the process of writing last night i had to come up with kids for jaheira/khalid, and only one of them actually shows up in the fic, which is so fucked up that i had to create a quick and fun visual aid for all of them. my cursive is questionable in places so here they are in order of age :)

rion, harper, a little blunt but actually very sweet despite appearances (she's the one who shows up in the fic !!!)

hazel, druid, inherited a lesser version of khalid's stutter, very very very much like her dad in first-glance temperament but with a lot of her mom's marshmallow core. so basically the softest girl ever

elowen, bard, i feel like every family needs That Inexplicable Artsy One, really looks up to a family friend who never stopped singing ...

cyprus, adventurer, pretty much just a carbon copy of jaheira, genuinely professionally annoying, khalid is always calling him "the sweetest and most perfect boy" because he is Pretty Much Just A Carbon Copy Of Jaheira

liora, on god i truly do not believe jaheira/khalid would have children without having at least one of them be some sort of professional criminal

ennir, not TECHNICALLY a wizard because he's still working through a lot of issues with his stutter (which is as intense as khalid's) but he's got a real passion for the weave & a very compassionate dad who really wants to support him in an attempt to figure it out, SOOOO

and as a postscript: a snip from the fic itself to contextualize why there are so many.

Things are starting to get weird in my "young Jaheira for screenshots" playthrough. XD

I amuse myself. XD

Thinking about an au where Khalid survives but Jaheira doesn't... Khalid clinging onto life during the torture, solely so he can see Jaheira if he survives... only to find out when they're escaping that she was killed....

saw this trend on tiktok and thought it fit them well 🤭

Decided to write a general summary/timeline thing for my Jaheira and Khalid raise the bhaalspawn AU, my bhaalspawn’s name is Evune and she lives there now. I did need to mess with the timeline a bit so just roll with it

————————————————————————————————————————————

1348- Gorion saves baby Evune from the bhaal temple but decides to give her to Jaheira and Khalid due to his own guilt

They take a break from the Harpers but are still heavily involved with the network to keep tabs on things and return fully once evune is a teenager.

1368- Gorion finds out about Sarevok and tries to warn them and gets killed. Good play through bg1 events follow

The party is Evune, Imoen, Jaheira, Khalid, Minsc, and Dynaheir but the other characters are involved at certain points

J+K tell her she’s a bhaalspawn earlier than you find out in the game

Normal SoD events happen and they stop the crusade but Irenicus comes to ruin everything, Evune is found not guilty of skies murder but is banished from the city so the party meet up before irenicus ruins everything again and captures them.

1369- during their captivity Dynaheir is killed in front of imoen (rip girly im so sorry) and irenicus intends to to the same with Khalid and Evune BUT Evune makes a deal with him that she would be an active participant in his experiments (very morally dubious move on her end leading to her becoming a fallen ranger) This disturbs her and she keeps this deal a secret from everyone.

Good playthrough Bg2 (+ ranger class side quest to restore her ranger status) but Khalid is also there. Evune’s a much softer character now than in bg1 because she doesn’t feel “good” anymore

1370- Throne of bhaal plot and Evune gives up her essence of bhaal (it’s a surprise tool that will help us later)

1372- a couple years later complications from irenicus’ experiments start really messing Evune up and she is taken to a healing house to try and heal her, but a cultist of bhaal seeking revenge finds out about this and in her weakened state she is fatally wounded. (I did flirt with the idea of this happening while J+K are at moonrise but I haven’t decided yet)

Fun fact: when I originally made this au Khalid still died but I was talking to a friend about it and they said “both her husband AND her daughter? Jaheira cant have shit” and I hadn’t thought about that and it seemed really mean plus it means Jaheira x Khalid lives on!!!! so I brought Khalid back. Rip Evune tho

-Fast forward to BG3 time

1464- ??? Is born

1487- ??? Is killed and used as a vessel to create Durge, along with other offerings, the water from the winding river where bhaal was killed by cyric and fell from the boareskyr bridge, and Evune’s discarded essence

1492- Bg3 Orin betrays Durge who forgets everything including her own name. Durge becomes paranoid about dying and becoming a faithless since they don’t know what god they worshiped so latches onto the first deity they come across which is Silvanus in the grove so she becomes a Druid. (They don’t know a lot about mindflayers)

Because of the essence Evune is able to communicate with Durge and is basically the anti Sceleritas Fel saying “nooo don’t kill people nooo :(“

They mainly talk when Durge is long resting (like the dream visitor but less frequently), they can communicate while Durge is awake but generally don’t.

Evune is a passive observer to the events of the game via Durge. I think of her like an invisible ghost following Durge around.

I forgot the Volo gives you Irenicus’ book on the slayer and calls him a genius lmao

Like Jaheira is right there my man those are fighting words lmao
