I should think so. Especially for such a powerful statement of attraction (or just lust) to be made by HRS. In a way that is directed towards yourself indirectly, even if it is really just the character you are roleplaying.
Well, jokes aside. I'm glad your vacation from the forums was a short one.
😁🙏🍾
Reading it, It speaks of a High-Elf by the name of 'Eliette' and that she regrets her time on the surface, as she was seemingly captured. "Twas most likely a Lolthian Drow raiding party to collect new slaves or something similar," I reasoned. She seemed to believe that she was exalted by the Spider Queen, and that she was given Her favor, so much so, as even being able to portend the downfall of the minor houses' Drow that took her captive.
It was very curious, as in my over 200 years of life, I have never heard of Lolth giving favor to anything other than a Drow, which peaked my curiosity immensely. Apparently that was all of note in that journal, so I picked up another book that was laying on the web-laden desk just to the right of the bedroll.
This one had intricate sketches of spider diagrams and spell runes and there are captions written in some kind of glyph or code. Looking further down I saw what looked to be poorly written Common, as if the writer was having trouble even making the strokes to scribe. Perhaps Eliette was under some sort of pain or distress? I kept reading further, she seems to be talking about the spiders in this cavern. She... seems to believe they can sense her devotion to Lolth, by skittering about in the shadows.
"Curious way to believe. Mayhap she was beginning to feel the onset of madness, but how could she? These runes and diagrams are very well made, and i'm surprised she even knew about them unless Lolth whispered this knowledge to her, or some other way?" I thought.
Looking over my shoulder, Wyll was over on the other side looking around. I kinda figured he didn't know what he was looking for, and it couldn't really be helped, this isn't exactly his field of expertise plus he isn't very old either, so it is unlikely he could have picked it up somewhere else, at least about this particular subject matter. Continuing my read, she apparently awoke to a gift wrapped in spidersilk, from what she believes, it was taken from a 'heretic's corpse' and delivered as a reward of her devoted faith, by Her daughters.
It seems this High-Elf was really not mad at all, or at least sane enough to continue on gaining favor from Lolth, which is very interesting. This last entry, speaks about a very intriguing gift. It seems the corpse of an arachnomancer was delivered to her, the facial runes which allowed them to 'transcend' from a humanoid body to that of a spider at will... and... she... "Ugh..." I thought. Carved the runes exactly into her own flesh to mimic them. "Well, this explains the Ritual Diagram." I thought to myself.
"Wyll." I again looked over into his direction and then faced him. He walked over near to where I was standing to listen. "It seems a High-Elven female once named Eliette was taken captive from the surface, and she was from what I can gather, extremely devoted to Lolth's faith. She received 'gifts' from Lolth for her extreme devotion and was delivered the runes of an arachnomancer to induce her 'Transcendence' as you will recall the word on the Ritual Diagram you called a schematic. She did this to gain the power to change her mortal humanoid form into that of a spider to mimic the Spider Queen's, and in this form, she apparently found extacy. Because from what she believed, she found the House of Lolth, and became it's matriarch." I explained to him.
"Huh. Sounds like a weird one. Who would ever want that, and for that matter, does that happen often?" He asked curiously.
"Wyll, you may not know this about me, or Drow / Elves in general, but we have a good 750 year lifespan, more if prolonged by magic. I am over 200 - Just barely an adult in Fae standards, but I have been very diligent in my Goddess' grace and learned all I can of her mothers' teachings and Lolthian Drow methods. I have never heard of the Spider Queen giving favor to a non-Drow. But there is a first for everything. Arachnomancers are the only ones whom typically attempt this kind of shapechange, and they are usually masters or near that of their magecraft to even be able to attempt the ritual." I explained to him, looking a little concerned.
"She didn't seem as such, which means its unprecedented." I emphasized.
I decided to look around a bit more, and upon opening a nearby chest, I noticed a pair of boots. "I wonder if these are the first 'gift boots' she mentioned?" I thought as I began taking off my leather ones and replacing them with the spidersilk boots. I had to admit they were a lot more comfy than the well-worn leather ones.
We decided that there was nothing else to be gleaned from this abandoned area and decided to investigate the tunnels a bit more. There were a couple spider webbed backpacks laying about, skeletons covered in webbing and even some hanging from some areas completely mummified in it. The were two skeletons close to each other which peaked my interest. One had a backpack aside it so I decided to rummage. I found a bottle of Alchemists Fire and an old journal.
It seems the journal's owner was an apprentice to a wizard of Thay, by the wording, upset that he was forced to leave his homeland because of his master and was bound to him by some sort of spell oath. Reading on, I noted that it seems his master stole an important book of necromancy from the Thayvian Zulkors and they wanted it back. He also apparently was being pursued by Shar's Dark Justicars, which is strange, as Shar and Thay typically have nothing in common or to do with each other. "Perhaps they were hired as mercenaries?" I mused.
Flipping through some more pages it seems that his spell oath will be dissolved as soon as his master dies, and likely this, from a heavily-bleeding wound he received from the Dark Justicars, when they caught up to them. He wishes to return the book as he is under the impression that the Thayvian Zulkors believe he is loyal. Looking back over at the two skeletal corpses, I smiled.
"Seems neither of them got away." I thought, as I looked back at the journal again, flipping through a few more pages. "Huh." Something about a keygem hidden in these tunnels and mention of a cellar?
"Interesting read?" Wyll questioned in a curious tone.
"Maybe. Depends on what we can find down here." I answered with a smile.
"Alright then. Let's keep looking around." He said, smiling back. "Oh and uh... just so you know, I can see in the dark now." He admitted.
"Seriously? How is that? Humans can't do that, like ever unless your a Half-Elf or Half-Drow, or a Wizard or..." I held my tongue for a moment. "Ah. This is starting to add up." I thought to myself. "Okay! I blurted out happily. I am glad you can, so we won't need these torches for lighting up a space, right? I smiled to him, knowingly. "Ah. Yea. Probably not." He replied.
While I knew this was a useful thing, I appreciated him at least telling me this now before we get into more dangerous situations. "So, how far can you see?" I asked. I needed to gauge his sight capabilities. He will be a liability if I do not know what he can do, at least - what he is willing to speak upon. "I think like I can see that light way off over there." "Way off over there?" I thought. I guess something is better than nothing, but I need to be sure. At least I don't need to spend extra money on torches now." I reasoned.
I decided to verify his supposed 'Darkvision' sight. "Wyll, do me a favor, I'm going to test your Darkvision. I need to do this for our survivability, it isn't to mock or make you feel bad. I need to know exactly how far you can see in the dark. You realize why I am doing this, yes? We have already seen how 'not seeing' in the dark can be a terrible disadvantage, and how 'seeing' can make all the difference." Looking at him seriously.
"Alright. Let's do this." He said enthusiastically.
I walked with him to a certain point. One that was on the ground level and not covered in webbing, basically a safe spot for him to view. I told Wyll to wait here, and that I would move to a certain distance to see if he could see me from that place. I yelled out if he could see me and to be honest if he could. He said that he couldn't see me. "I expected that. Mostly no one, save for a Drow, can see this far away in the dark. I'm going to slowly move forward, step-by-step, and I want you to tell me when you can see me." I asked of him from the darkness. "Got it." He replied.
I decided to test this, because our literal lives depended on it, since we weren't going to use physical light anymore, except on rare occasions to invoke interest from an enemy. I decided to give him the ultimate test. I stopped my steps for a few moments and was quiet.
"You must be pretty far back there. It's kinda scary you Drow can see that far away in the dark." He said with a bit of uneasiness. I began my steps again after that short pause.
I saw Wylls' initial smile as he spoke. "Yea, I can see youoowoah!" Wyll immediately arched his back as his arms went out and up, bent at the elbow. "Haah! God's woman, really!?" He said in an excited, flabbergasted tone.
After a few moments of initial shock and blush running wild over his cheeks, he immediately turned away as I had bestowed upon him a 'Full Frontal' topless view.
"Ah. Lovely. It seems I got my true answer." I said with a naughty smirk. I composed myself and addressed him. "Glad to know you can see me this far away, Wyll." I teased.
"Damn you Drow. Are all you females always like this?" He said sounding perplexed.
"Yes, and no." I replied. "I like to use these moments to deepen our sync. But I do it appropriately. The Drow of Lolthian faith will do it to tempt you, then seduce and use you, and then depending on their whim that moment, make you either one of their many weapons, a puppet, or their torturous plaything. I care not for any of those things, for they are not the way of the Goddess Eilistraee.
Taking a few moments, I re-garbed myself slowly, and walked back to Wyll. "So now that I have verified you have the normal range of Darkvision sight, it will be easier to gauge how we can proceed... Mhm. In the dark." I smirked. "You..." Wyll just looked at me with slight impatience. "Always with the snark."
I had never actually read the books... well I did but just opened and closed them to see if any cutscene would occur. I am lazy like that with reading the books in this game. This has given me a whole new sense of appreciation for what is in the well and the fight that occurs. I hope you give us more of this kind of thing in the future! That way I can appreciate parts of the game by seeing them in a whole new light!
I love how she turns something that she knows is deadly serious and could affect their survival into a way to mess with/flirt with him. Also, this is how they should do all eye exams.
I like how you show that the same thing can be done by the two types of drow, but for very different reasons. So that although it may seem superficially similar but at a deeper level fundamentally different.
My Eilistraeean cleric did not make Lae'zel commit suicide. I said this already, that in my play, in a fit of despair at her predicament, she jumped off the ship into Avernus. She did not believe the Lich Queen would accept her back into their society so she decided to jump.
As for the 'smirking to Wyll about the torture', apparently someone once again didn't read the room and understand the intent behind the words, or the 'gist' so-to-speak.
This part is irrelevant for the reason stated in the reply above this quote. Also, Wyll typically stay's in Funniesthobo's camp, and I doubt there is much interaction with Wyll unless Funniesthobo chooses to pursue it. As for the last part there, everyone has some darkness within, as nothing is ever all light, or all dark, there will always be balance.
Haven't I said before that my favorite sniper shot is a testicle shot? =P
I would say in the vast majority of cases with few exception, it is not better to live in ignorance.
Well if you want to post a song you could always just post it. Maybe people will like it. Sometimes an occasional song is a nice addition to what normally goes on in the forums.
Armour exists for a reason. Some people need to keep it on more of the time than others. I am having a very difficult time over the past couple years in that I wanted to keep my armour on, but my vulnerabilities have been so obvious that I've had to take off all of the pieces way too often.
Well, I just choose to treat them as I would any other friend. Whether they were male or female. Whether male or female you can make your friends feel better. Also, if it looks like you are trying to sleep with them, then that is the vibe that person will get from you. Not a friendly one.
What kind of guy would that be?
What is the point of dividing humanity that way when we should all be trying to be united as one? It actually is a very old primitive instinct of ours to seek out others similar to ourselves and create an ingroup as well as outgroup. Often with inherent bias towards anyone who falls in the 'outgroup'.
The thing is humanity has reached a point where we understand things enough and have turned into a sufficiently global society where it would benefit us more to start knocking down those walls rather than raise them up.
I'd wager my life on it. But, at the stage in life that I am currently in I don't really care about whether things are 'manly' or not. I just care about right and wrong, facts vs opinions, truth vs lies.
No, it is only baggage if it affects you emotionally. It does not affect me emotionally, it is just a hard fact of my limitations.
I most likely would swing between true neutral and neutral good. Also, I didn't think they were going to add the alignment system in to BG3.

He could play, and win ping pong with nunchaku's!
He trained with a 700 lb boxing/martial arts bag!
2 Awesome Bruce Lee Quotes:
"To reach me, you must move to me. Your attack offers me an opportunity to intercept you."
"Empty your mind. Be formless, shapeless, like water. Now you put water into a cup, it becomes the cup. You put water into a bottle, it becomes the bottle. You put it into a teapot, it becomes the teapot. Now water can flow, or it can crash, be water my friend."
I will do my level best for you, good Sir!
Well, she needed to know the truth, for both their sake. She is over 200 years old, so she really does, as a Drow, know all the sexsi tricks. Plus, she knows how to read Wyll now after seeing his many reactions and how he presents himself in both battle and in casual form. So to her, this was the best way to get an 'honest' answer by utilizing his possible expected reaction as the gauge.
You picked up on that! Good for you!
You are being impatient. Such a thing will come up, eventually.
She does, actually.
More like full of hiding he is a Warlock, but that will come out eventually I think.
Unfortunately, Larian, in their storyboard writing about Wyll, didn't 'lock out' anything, he can do anything a warlock can do, and that alone gives him away. Had they written him to be only able to use a rapier and his light armor it would have been fine, but since he can use his warlock capabilities and I can make him summon an Imp or a Quasit (which is going to be really fun banter in later episodes) it really breaks his character 'story-wise' because his dialogue makes him look like a fool. I don't know if Larian intended this purposefully but that is how it looks to me, as a writer.
Glad you approve.
Probably not. Wyll is all about his own glory, but since he has found someone he believes is 'worthy' of sharing in his 'glory', not a so-called 'equal' mind you, he accepts her as she is. My Eilistraeean Drow is not taking any chances, as she has lived over 200 years and is not about to die now due to stupid missteps.
Inupac, there have been plenty of instances where Wyll shined, you just failed to notice them. I'll leave the rest, in that regard, to you.
Did I not already tell you I was playing the 'long game'?
We are in EA. I can only go so far with this with the current content available. I would like to continue this thread past EA. I just hope it doesn't get locked by then for lack of posting and thought abandoned.
I'm not, if you bothered to realize my quotes above are one in the same in an explanation of her potential affection toward him. Did you note the bolded part I just made for you? Seriously, do you not take cues well?
Wasted. I told you how it was in my play.
In someone else's play, Lae'zel might be a bastion of worthiness, seeking to redeem herself in the Lich Queen's eyes. In mine she was weak and hopeless. It was a means to an end - to not have any distractions. I wanted us to focus on a 'Duo' not any other issues. If you want that, I can make a full party in another thread and have all the 'drama' one could ask for. However, my ideal love interest (me personally, not my character Drow in this play) is still out of reach. (until the end of EA)
I'm sorry? What elephant is in the 'room'?
I told you previously as a skilled sniper that is my favorite shot. This should not surprise you n the least. I know it is a... ah... mhn. Touchy subject for males, but it is fine, I did not intentionally scope yours... or did I? Well that is for you to decide. if you want to give this thread the 'Peace Out' than sobeit. But I doubt you will. I have noticed we have over a hundred of 'lurkers' curious to see 'What she will do next'. It is not unlike a Howard Stern thing, but it remains. I will continue this play to the end of EA, and hopefully beyond if the Moderator Gods/Goddess's will allow me to carry updates past that.
It is not. Inupac, I need no armor in this instance. I walk among you, invisible. No armor is needed when nobody knows my face or my history. I have been called the so-called 'Grey man' many times. But that really isn't the point. I do what I do, to protect society, but we can only do so much.
I don't even want to think about what that punching bag would cost. Might even have to get parts of your house reinforced just to be able to put it up.
If the roles were reversed, truth be told I would hold qualm with using a title granted by an ex. I’d probably develop a better title instead to really flatter them. Something deliciously reverent for females. Males? Eh… I dunno, something adorable they’d rather not be called in public.
However – If I possessed a Y chromosome I would just have to use the name told to me to use. This is fair. A man’s ego must always be kept in check lest it cause problems for others and himself.
Hmm.
Very well. It is the game that is played.
I am playing 5D chess in the silence between responses. I’ve had dozens of theoretical mental conversations with you all and any voyeurs in the meantime. By the time I bring my fingers to weave a response, I am always a wiser being than the one who made my previous response. The infinity of my mind is both a blessing and a burden. You think I am here when I am miles away. An entirely different galaxy. An entirely different eon of time.
I say this all to mean – by the time I came to that conclusion it paled in comparison to the fervor of what came prior. So in the heat of that, I could not outright state it as it would weaken the argument of my previous self, but also reveal the wild swings of my mood and the terrifying speed of my up-to-date, real-time conclusions. I have an image to uphold.
So I granted free agency to you upstarts and continued on my way. That is what that meant.
You appeal to my grace.
Don't push your ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ luck.
Because the Mind comes first - then the body. You have seen my crude display in regards to Lae’zel. There is half your answer. I accept her in her entirety. She is perfection even when her spirit falters, causing her to avert her gaze to kin who I will render dead for doing so. Alas she is just pixels, but an example nonetheless.
Males though? A male can be attractive, but he can also be hellspawn. I will never be lured by his wiles. Until a male uses the proper titles to address me, shows correct deference, files the proper paperwork, and has endured my presence for upwards of 2 years, he is otherwise considered a vile child of Satan unworthy of my gaze or authenticity. Whom I must exorcise from the glory of my aura at every moment of physical proximity. If by grace my contempt is not provoked, I may come to tolerate him, but I’m always keeping an eye on him.
Wyll is just pixels, but checks off some of the requirements. He will even call a female pc "Chief". Excellent. I love it.
Thus the male exists as a concept, devoid of body until he, again: uses proper address, correctly defers, files proper paperwork, and shows 2 years of experience handling toxic chemicals. Then he is allowed to reside embodied in the corridors of my mind. Corporeal there in his compatible differences. A newfound morsel of my mind.
No.
Hngh, I do believe in dialogue. In your insanity you may have a piece of wisdom here. Maybe.
I rescind the demand. But remember it is you who opened the door to disappoint me. And it is likely to end both our threads and our game. Still, I will be more inclined to call myself to ignore you if my ire is triggered again. I would prefer not to utterly murder War Maiden’s thread in another rage.
You dare compare me to… Her Majesty Violent Collection of Femme-coded Pixels? 😳
Regardless. Woozy face or not. You play a checker piece in a game of chess. You respond to my bait of your bait with more bait? This is not a space for any answer less subtle than what I implied. It is why we are employing reading comprehension to read between the lines. Fail to do that and you will fail the entirety of this game.
Besides. No one has the ovaries to respond to your bait but me. So go ahead. How predictable are you going to be. What’s my prize?
FunniestHobo wouldn’t even get a chance to respond. Wyll would lose all 5 of his limbs the moment such words left his lips.
It is a false equivalence. The old writers can try to make drow scary and vile all they want. It will never change the fact that they are super sexy women made for male consumption that most men fantasize about being on their knees before. Drow are a joke. The reverse is not.
Insanity is doing the same thing over and over again and expecting different results.
Lol. That was cruel of you all to posit to him. My love for characters like Lae’zel is so interminable, I do not even remember when it began. If a woman like her tells you to step aside, you do so and thank her.
Titties??!?! Do you know how many times I DIED in these spider pits??? The game even disallowed me saving after the fight one time. Be serious! This is a serious situation!
Eye exam? Let’s just say War Maiden would certainly fail then due to her comment on gith’s in-game gifts. “Worst shaped” – are you kidding me??
I on the other hand might as well be certified for 20/20 vision. Do not ask for clarification. Just know I am a Veteran of Patch 3. In Memoriam. I curse the day of Hotfix 6.
Thanks, I hate it. 🙃
Retcon this headcanon. She would never take the easy way out. She will fight in the face of the odds! She must! “Let my name be known,” she says. And it shall be so!
Just admit you’re like everyone else and instead of recognizing how much of an honor it is that a gith learns the meaning of mercy and spares you from painting her sword with your blood you decided to shove her lawful evil self off the Nautiloid for shiggles. Disgraceful.
Wait... so do we actually have 'voyeurs' checking into this thing? How do you check that? I always wanted to be famous (not really at all seems stressful, but forum famous is fine with me even if it is just adjacent fame to War Maiden's writing).
A perfect response.
Well that is a bit too high maintenance for me... but I suppose you are some form of royalty and with that comes the maintaining.
Now I'm, semi-famous, doing good deeds and allowing for wisdom to be gained as well! This one is shaping up pretty nicely for me. Now if only real life would go that way as well.... either way, I shall bask in my digital glow for a while.
That was just an awesome phrase. I will have to remember it and give you credit if I ever wind up using it.
You are incorrect. I would have had a chance to respond and he would have lost some teeth an instant before losing his 5 limbs. Or his other eye. But I very much doubt I would be thinking about accuracy in that moment.
I just think drow are beautiful. I mostly ignore the whole lloth subjugate men lore thing, didn't know about it till I started coming to these forums. Plus who knows when it might be one of the good drow that you bump into instead of the evil?
I played a little of the old ones. But I was just a little kid back then and didn't really understand all the rules so wound up eventually just getting frustrated with it.
Also I never said they were hotter than humans, half-elves, elves or whatever else. Just they are beautiful. The others all obviously can be as well. Some of the tiefling and gith characters created I've seen I quite like as well.
