Dame Aylin might be the most annoying Character in the history of D&D
Like I don't know who wrote her, and I'll try not to spoil anything but HOLY CRAP.

From the moment you save her, she flips a switch goes full main character mode, steals the spotlight, and then when all is said and done...she bashes you over the head with the subtlety and tact of a wrecking ball, and basically is like "Hey guess what, I'm a lesbian, do you wanna see how lesbian I am? No? Too bad!"

She is unkillable, so you can't just be like "Nah I'm good" *wooden stake to the heart*

She both acts superior (due to story spoilers) but also totally useless (We have to free her like 3 times).

And her story is inexplicably tied to the MAIN STORY (and Shadowhearts) SO YOU ARE FORCED TO DEAL WITH HER.


Edit 1: To all the people who are calling me a Homophobe. Notice how I have...no issue with Isobel? Because she acts like a normal person...

Edit 2: "Well she was locked in a prison and forced to die for hundreds of years" is not a defense for her being annoying. You can easily make a character have tragic, emotional, and difficult motivations, without making them annoying.

Also she helped very little in the boss fight against myrkul and kept missing all her attacks, as if being a bad written character wasn't enough

My only problem with her is how unbelievably uselessly ♥♥♥♥ she is in the Ketheric Thorm fights. Watching her attack Thorn is like watching a lvl1 kayle go 1 on 1 with a lvl6 fed Darius Xddddd

I dunno, I kinda liked how full-steam-ahead she was because it was very on-brand for goodly aasimars: Meaning well and not really thinking about the consequences of their actions. It's what she is, she can't even help herself.

The Isobel stuff was a bit much at times but did make me laugh, like *we get it,* you're gonna go to town on her. Was disappointed they don't join as companions. Isobel really *seems* like a companion you can unlock, but she's just a flashy tourist.

Kek, Idk, she's just as paladin as it gets. That's how I've imagined full CHA paladin of light. Stupidly strait and honest, and obnoxiously righteous and zealous. And oh boy does she think that she is (always) right.

I mean you're given at least two chances to completely ♥♥♥♥ her over if you want.

.....you're mad she's into girls? And because she was into girls you wanted to kill her?

Good lord dude seek help.

Honestly she is the perfect representation of the party's desire to sleep with the PC, I wanna know what god blessed our character to be that irresistible to everything and I'm genuinely surprised there isn't a dragon screaming I want your babies at some point.

But you aren't forced to deal with her. Just kill her and live with it. Although I don't find her annoying even If she lives, she practically has no screentime which is a shame. I expected her and Isobel being way more important for the plot.

So you are saying the paladin... acted like a stereotypical paladin...

See I don't see her as acting like a Paladin, she honestly comes off more as a hypocrite at times when you view her as a Paladin especially after beating Thorm.
Capybara Aug 20, 2023 @ 9:31am 
I just hated how insistent she is participating in the fights, like hell, get your weakass out of here, I am trying to save you so stop trying to get yourself killed!

Can you explain how she was a hypocrite? Maybe I missed something but she seemed consistent on everything. She was very much. Let's go kill the bad guy and praise Selune.

That's a lot of words to say you're homophobic.

When did sexuality get brought into this? Some people might not like her loud and very zealous personality. I think you might be projecting here.
