ADOPTED AU 2

ADOPTED AU 2 👀

Ketheric would be the best father for this feral kids, who had been mentally and physically hurt by their parents.

I think Thorm would be so angry that those fuckers abused their children, because for his point of view, children are one of the most precious things a parent have. He literally sold his soul to Shar and Myrkul, begging them to stop his suffering or give his daughter back.

So, I think he would be an amazing dad for Jacq, Enver and Orin. (for once, he will not be submitted by gross Durgetash until their teen)

Erased but not forgotten 1/3

A quite night in the wild

Arggggggg....it's been soooo long, I had a shit ton of things to do, but here I am with an other comic, surprising les depressing than the others serious comics i made...

This is actually a funny scene that got out from a chat I had with a friend.

Durge is canonically a cannibal, he is very drawn to every type of meat, and he does try to eat some leftovers from the destroyed goblin camp, but there are Wyll and Gale who try to tell him that is not a thing he is supposed to do.

And Jacq, with the innocence of a newborn mind, ask: "we eat dead animals meat, and they are empathic creatures and speak when we use magic to understand, so, what is the difference between eating them and eating dead people meat?"

reaction:

Gale_and_Wyll.exe stop working

If your Durge were a character that can accompany you on the adventure. How do you imagine your recruitment would be? Oh your interaction with Dark urge?

Edit: Name your Durge's mission

ohoohohoh! that's a really interesting thing, how Jacq would be as a companion. I admit, this is a thing I thought a lot even before reading this message, and @popex-springpinter thanks you so much for your interesting questions!❤️

SO! I had imagined that the player meet Jacq on the beach, or among the goblin corpses near the mind flayer stuck in the wreckage.

He is extremely confused, covered in blood and a bit dazed, with his life bar in half (he almost split his head in half by hitting it in the nautiloid's capsule to get out).

For a moment jacq almost looks like he's about to attack, but he shakes his head and stops.

Here there is the possibility of making a perception roll, and so we understand that he is confused and that it was as if an instinct was pushing him to attack.

I imagined the dialogue and the questions, which vary on: did he kill all these people, if they are okay, or what happened (or attack, it depends)

Jacq takes a while to answer, as if his voice had not been used for a while, and he answers that he doesn't know, and that he woke up on the beach with no memory and with all the dead around him.

He asks if he can be updated on what happened to them, and they need to be explained what coelomorphosis is, and then he would like to get rid of the parasite, and suggests that they continue together to find out what can be done.

if you accept him into the group, Jacq is bold, energetic and wild, kinda sweet and friendly, but sometimes , in some interactions with NPCs, he give some disturbing comments that show his dark side, commenting in a bloody and creepy way.

he is an exceptional shadow druid warrior, with a strong inclination towards arcane magic.

He have no idea of what privacy is, and he is prone to doing strange and stupid things (like drinking from auntie ethel's well, or licking a dead spider).

As said before, he is a cannibal (he and astarion have no problem eating/drinking from corpses), has no idea how to cook (he has no problem eating raw meat), likes alcohol, but has a nearly non-existent tolerance (he gets drunk easily, but drinks little, due to the severe headaches he has).

It is easy to gain approval with him, you have to be a mix between heroic, kind and cruelly bloodthirsty and chaotic.

when you have a good enough approval(25), Jacq reveals to you that he has no idea who he is, and that his memories are gone (he just see red and the only real ones he has are some faded memories of his childhood, before bhaal), but more important, he has dark instincts and very bloody thoughts, and has no idea why.

(I'll leave Jacq's romance sheet aside, or I'll never finish it)

is canon the sleepwalking murder of the bard, and Jacq wakes the player up in panic asking for help. here it's very similar to how you react with Astarion when he tries to bite the player, you can help him or chase him away (or attack him).

If you have a high approval (40) Jacq reveals to you the visits of Sceleritas Fell, and the things the little monster says.

As with Shadowheart and Astarion, you can help Jacq become a good person (repressing his dark urges and be free of bhaal), or encourage him to embrace them (and pursue the destiny of bhaal's chosen one).

The second act is interesting in his storyline, because Ketheric and a shitload of people recognize him, but of course no one really says anything (Jacq is very uncomfortable but at the same time enthralled by the moonrise towers, and he's looking for answers).

The dialogue with the bone sister is very hard for him, and if the player tries to defend him from her, there's a good increase in approval.

THEN, then, let's not forget the part with the ancient brain and the three chosen ones, Jacq dissociates for a moment, looking at Orin and Gortash, and feels anger mix with pain and longing, with a bonus of a terrible headache. He almost blows up the hideout when he tries to get closer, the player prevents him.

I imagine that in act 3, when he regains some of his memory, jacq will find himself in conflict with karlach about gortash, she wants to kill him, he instead wants to try to reconnect with him.

here the player will have to choose whether to kill gortash or not, and if he finally does, he will lose a lot of approval (-10), and if the approval is not high enough, he will leave the group.

(wow, i wrote a lot, i'll stop here for now. i hope this is enough as an idea of ​​how jacq is as a character....)

thanks again, I love when people ask me things about him, and I'm sorry if I take some time to answer it, but I will get it, no worry!

(I ask forgiveness for my English, and for any errors I may have written, love you all, Ciaoooo 👋🙃)

11 and 13 for Durgetash asks, pretty please!

11. Sceleritas, my beloved, how does exactly fit in there?

13. What's your personal favourite flavour that you find yourself gravitating towards? Not necessarily what sort of stuff you publish or smth, but what you personally consume like a starving man in a desert and rotate in your brain? The kinky shit, the domestics, the gore and horror attached to them, star crossed lovers vibes?

Hello there👋✨

11. So, Sceleritas had always feel ostile towards the rare relationship Jacq tried to have over the years, and more so with Gortash. he whined continuously to Jacq about how he deserved better than a human Banite, how he should have killed him a after his usefulness was finished, believing that Jacq could continue the plan without him in his eyes.

but in my canon, despite all, in a moment of sincerity, when Jacq asked him to stop reporting every moves , Sceleritas told him that it wasn't their choise to make, they are bound to do that for bhaal.

BUT most important, after having seen how much deep Jacq's connection with Gortash was, it was him to suggest to make a petition to Bhaal to make a unholy Bhaalist mariage (were they stab each others in the end of their life, very romantic)... just when Orin was spying on Jacq.

Sceleritas tried to shape Jacq in the perfect chosen one, and at the same time he tried to make his young lord happy without breaking the rules.

(I associate Sceleritas with the annoying overbearing drone of the animated movie LEO)

13. I'm a sucker for fanfictions, the trope of 'oh no! one of them is captured/injured, what the other will do?' is my favorite.

Of course there is the Kinky shit, love it, but most of all, I like when it concentrated on their twisted love and their way of. affection.

thanks for asking me thissss❤️ (again, sorry for my English 🥲)

Imagine a Bhaal and Fell sitcom style situation.

Where out of nowhere your favorite son stops wearing his executioner clothes and wears turtlenecks stating:

It's not a stage this is the real me. And if you'll excuse me, I'll go read stories to children in hospitals and donate to charities.

aaaanndd it is what happened, lol🤣🤣 it is actually really funny, good idea @popex-springpinter !

here what I have imagined:
