BG3 Fan Fiction SPOILERS and POTENTIAL SPOILERS

[brokoreus]

Hi Everyone. Here is a fan fiction in case you're interested. I've written this story for several reasons:

1. It was really fun.
2. I wanted to show how this game could play out if it was a D&D 5e game session using true D&D 5e rules (to the best of my knowledge) and stats, etc. Except for maybe the dialogue, the mechanics could easily be implemented into the game, and this story shows that it could work (most anyway).
3. I am hoping someone from Larian will read it and get some ideas on how to improve the game as well as story ideas, etc. Man I'd love to see some of these things incorporated into the game. smile
4. I'm hoping those who don't think this is a Baldur's Gate Game will see how it is, in fact, a Baldur's Gate Game. Have you played it and thought it wasn't worthy of BG1 and 2? Read this story, and you'll see how it COULD all fit together. There are SO many elements of the game that I put into this story to write it all together as one cohesive tale. Once you read it, play the game again and look for a lot of the items I reference in the story. I hardly had to create anything myself. I just took what they have in the game, and I started piecing it all together myself with my own fan theories (and a few others).
5. And most of all, I hope others will enjoy reading it.

For Moderators, please note, I've created this in blog format to make it easier to see pics of BG3, to find the links to my story, The Afflicted. I'm removing the pics from the actual document since they are on the blog.

Also, I have finished the story. The Afflicted Book 1 ends before journeying on to the next areas of the game. So although EA goes beyond the story I've written, it felt more appropriate to end it where I did.

Finally, I am now moving on to work on a version of the story that takes out all the Tabletop dice rolls, etc. So I will have two versions. Version 1 is the original Tabletop Game Sessions written out in narrative form with dice rolls and DM decisions and level ups and so forth. Version 2 will be full narrative without all that extra stuff, and maybe more descriptive combat as opposed to, "Vexir took a swing and rolled a 19. Hit. She did 8 damage." It'll be something more like, "Vexir took a swing, but it was a glancing blow off the goblin's armor. She swung a second time, and the goblin's head flew through the air to smack into the wall with a sick cracking sound."

Also note: there are no advertisements or anything on this site. It is strictly for BG3 fanfiction and game pics. Nothing more. Thank you.

Please feel free to post your thoughts here or on the blog. I'm so interested in everyone's opinions and thoughts.

Thanks.

Updated BG3 blog. Book 4: Ascension of the Mastermind, Part 3, Chapter 23. Hope you enjoy it.

It is the final book in the Baldur's Gate 3 The Afflicted fan fiction. At last, the Afflicted have arrived at Baldur's Gate, but they quickly learn that there is SO much more going on than the Cult of the Absolute. Numerous schemes, conspiracies, and intrigues quickly entangle them and threaten to enslave or destroy them. Will the Afflicted stay united? Will they survive? Will they overcome? Or will the greatest mastermind succeed and ascend to absolute godhood?

This story is free on the blog site to all who wish to read the Baldur's Gate 3 story using characters I created as the protagonists.

MAJOR SPOILERS if you plan on playing the video game. Hope you enjoy.

Book 4: Ascension of the Mastermind (MAJOR SPOILERS!!! It is highly recommended you play the video game first. This story is based on choices and decisions I made while playing the game as well as on what I thought the characters would do if they weren't restricted by the video game. Also, SPOILERS for the Demon Hunters story as it is the prequel to the Afflicted story. Three of the characters from Demon Hunters - Aelun, Vlynrifane, and Fiovay - are among the main characters of this story. There are other characters from Baldur's Gate 3 that are in Demon Hunters, so the two stories are closely tied together. As before, I will be releasing portions of this story as I complete them, so watch for updates regularly.

Updated the Demon Hunters blog with Part 7: Duel of the Demon Lords, Chapter 5. Secrets of the Underdark. Hope you enjoy.

And now, the Demon Hunters adventure (the fanfic prequel to Baldur's Gate 3: The Afflicted) continues with Demon Hunters 2: Wrath of Demogorgon.

Again, Demon Hunters 2: Wrath of Demogorgon is based on the Out of the Abyss campaign, but it is the second half. There are plenty of original characters and story elements included, so I hope you enjoy.
