Guyssss!!!
I just got my commission from @kcohed.bsky.social !!!

This is #VincentOC 's future! Happy and in love with #Shadowheart

I'm crying, y'all, they look so happy!
Vincent is sitting on the bed, wearing red linen trousers. Shadowheart is propped on his lap, leaning toward him with her hand on his bare chest.
She's wearing simple, lingerie-like pajamas.
Both are smiling.

“The Hamlet”

A special dedication post to my lovely Discord circle!
I joined them one year ago, and we grew a family with our Tavs. What better way to show some love than to render some portraits? 👀🤭

Without further ado, meet the HamFam!

Augustine fails to see how this is a couples costume.
Dolly doesn't see the issue.

This one was so cute 🥺❤️

A lil Sorn appreciating his lil kitten... I somehow don't think Val'dran minds.

A picrew of Sorn and Val'dran. Sorn is sitting on his knees and Val'dran is curled up, both of them on a circular bed, and Sorn has heart highlights in his eyes while Val'dran is smiling, wearing cat ears and a tail. They both have speech bubbles with a heart in it.

Eye contact! 🦑💕🦑

(My illithids can't have physical sex as they have nothing going on down there, but eye contact makes their dreams, illusions, hallucinations, whatever - that much more potent.

... Moss also really likes just... being held.
Most vanilla tentacle 'sex' ever, lol.)
Art of two illithids holding each other, arms around each other's backs, tentacles tangled, maintaining eye contact.

Meet Kingsley. Former Drow Wizard who had been turned into an Illithid years and years ago. The Gith attack on the Nautiloid rattled something free in him, and he managed to break free of the Absolute. With a new name taken on, he now has one goal: Destroy the Absolute. Be free. Survive. #bg3tav

Avarice would love either "Hellsing" or "Berserk"; Vesper would be a fan of "InuYasha".

For the most part, Avarice hates being alone. Being alone with his thoughts can send him into internal spirals; anxiety, second guessing, having dark impulses that he has to wrench himself out from... He doesn't trust himself alone.

Major lore "pieces" I wasn't expecting as I played Xhaydia: Headcanon'd perm. changes from the Astral-Tadpole & drawing from the Deck of Many Things.

The 1st was fairly devastating for Xhaydia, noticing their Illithid half remained as the others were freed after defeating the Brain (1/2)

If Avarice popped into being at my house this instance, I think both of us would not only be disturbed by this event, but I don't think I'd be safe after all the stuff I've put him through through the years, let alone BG3.

#TavQOTD #ElorinPosting If the person closest to your Tav could describe one flaw about them, what would it be?

Abdirak would say that Elorin thinks too little of himself and is too slow to trust, which Abdirak would find amusing for a Loviatan to say, but Elorin REALLY should trust people more.

If the person closes to your Tav/Durge could describe one flaw about them, what would it be?

#VincentOC would say that #RolimOC is only ever strong for others, but a complete doormat when it comes to standing up for himself.

Rolim is working on it...
Vincent is angry when Rolim doesn't stand up for himself but then turns around and fights tooth and nail for the ones he loves. Rolim

#folktav the ‘lemme carry the weight of the world on my shoulders so you don’t have to’ druladin needs two things desperately: praise and to shut off their brain by being gently but firmly told what to do. Gale ‘Service Dom’ Dekarios is very eager to deliver 😌
Oh and ✨biting✨
#tavqotd #bg3vp #bg3fic
Close-up VP of Gale and Tav in a sensual, intimate moment.

Gale leans closely in towards Tav’s neck with a happy grin, while Tav leans back their head with closed eyes and a soft moan.

Gale wears the standard camp clothes shirt dyed in purple and blue with yellow laces.

Tav is a white human with medium length curly ginger hair with white highlights, styled into victory rolls. They wear the standard camp clothes dyed in red with a purple collar and brown laces Black text on white ground [NSFW]

I suppressed a moan.
And Gale noticed. Of course he did.
His thump stroke over my nipple in lazy circles as he bowed down to the junction of my ear and neck, kissing me, slightly sucking and nipping my earlobe before whispering encouragingly into my ear.
"Don't you dare to hold back! It's only us here, let me hear you!"
His gentle command was laced with a sternness that made me want to obey. That made obeying alarmingly easy and surprisingly pleasant as I breathed out, allowing it to become a shaky moan.
Gale hummed approvingly against my skin.
"Well done, my love, exactly like this! Let completely go now, l've got you!"
I sighed. From arousal, from his reassurance, from his irresistible command still lingering in the air.
I writhed trying to find some friction in the air as he began to plant a thousand kisses on a trail down from my neck until his curious lips finally reached my other nipple.
Gale's tongue, hot, wet and determined, licked and swirled around it, grazing it with careful teeth until it perked up and I telt my whole body arch into him as surges of pleasure shot directly into my core at his touch and I threaded my fingers into his hair, needing the connection, the touch.
And I just took in him, admired Gale, my Gale... Admired how he kneeled over me, his body pressing into mine, eyes shining so warm and bright as never before, hair loose and disheveled and soft like silk under my fingers. How he nestled into my touch as I began to caress his cheek with my thumb, drawing his attention away from my breast to me.
How he smiled then at me, expectantly and doting. How his tenderness, care and love for me were just as real as his enticingly stern, formidable confidence that made me wax in his hands. Purple text on white ground [NSFW]

"If this night ends up being a dream after all want I at least..."
"Wait a minute," Gale interrupted me, eyes big and concerned, and took my face in his hand while the other remained firmly on my waist. "Do you truly believe that this might not be real? That I'm not real?" I shook my head and stroke over his beard, felt the stubble of his hair, letting the sensation ground me.
"No, I know that you're real! I'm afraid that you feeling the same for me as I do for you is not. I'm not used to things working out for me as I want them to..."
My voice had gotten little and littler towards the end and I peeked through my lashes to see what Gale might think of me now, how tired was he of my antics?
But he only smiled and gently tilted my face upwards to his.
"I'm a master of illusions, remember?" he said with a playful glint in his eyes and leaned in closer.
"Allow me to prove to you that this isn't a dream but our new reality..."
I nodded. "Please do!"
And Gale kissed me, hungrily and devoted, making me yelp against him in surprise and from a quickly passing stinging pain as he sucked in my lower lip and bit down on it. He grinned.
"See? No dream!" he said, utterly pleased with himself. "You and I are still here, still together and I still love you more than anything!"
And I don't know if it was an involuntary chuckle or a sob of relief that tumbled out of me, making my head fall against his chest as Gale pulled me closer with a happy little huff of his own, drawing invisible patterns on my back.

#TavQOTD #NSFW Sigh....Percival is a dacryphiliac.

It's bad. The man will lick tears off his partner's cheeks mid act. He lives for pushing their limits and overstimulating them to the point of sobbing. Scarcely anything else makes him lose all his usual decorum and sauvity quicker.

Orya gets heated up instantly from a nice firm smack on the behind, and she’ll absolutely lose her mind from getting neck kisses and her ass massaged at the same time 😵‍💫😵‍💫😵‍💫

Kinktober Prompt : Deepthroating

I have a running HC that Thiriann trained herself out of her gag reflex to improve her spellcasting. It comes in handy in other areas as well. 👀

This is normal. Everything is normal. Hi. 😘
(The beauty on the right in the red wine-colored dress is Octavia, @dramaticchipmunk.bsky.social's bbg.)

#bg3vp #astarionxoc
Astarion stands in the center with his arms around Octavia (to our right, his left) and Adelaide (our left, his right). Adelaide poses seductively with one hand on her hip and the other tracing the edge of her lips. Astarion stands close, a hand on her waist as he holds a hand near his face with a sly look about him.
