A take on Fatal Frame: Crimson Butterfly but with Orin and Sentry watched over by Papa Bhaal. Yes, Fatal Frame is my constant special interest/hyperfixation but BG3 is my main fandom right now. In Fatal Frame 2, which is my favorite, a pair of twins perform The Crimson Sacrifice Ritual where one strangles the other to create a Crimson Butterfly shaped bruise on the neck of the Dead sibling which hopefully summons a spirit butterfly which symbolizes allegedly that the dead twin is in the realm of the Dead guarding the gate there while the living twin protects it in this world and they have become one as a gate guardian. Sentry is actually Orin's 'older brother' not a twin, but it was still fitting. I won't say the scene this is based on as it's a major spoiler and though it's an older game, it's really worth playing, watching a Let's Play, or listening to a lore overview on your own.
The Bhaalist Siblings done with proper mods:
Sentry Ojeda

Get to know my OCs: Sibling relationships: Sentry Ojeda:
As a Bhaalspawn, Sentry has many 'siblings' who are varying degrees of related to him. Here are their relationships:
Orin The Red:
When they were children and Sentry first returned to the Temple of Bhaal, he adored Orin. As an artist himself. He encouraged and collaborated with her on Murders and art pieces and he always protected and cared for her, his favorite precious baby sister...but Sarevok turned Orin against Sentry by insisting Sentry was her rival and not staying in his proper place, Sentry in turn became petty and critical towards his sister's work, assuming she was just jealous of him. This boiled over when Sentry began a relationship with Gortash.
Desdemona (my partner'sDurge) :
Sentry's older sister from Neverwinter. Born of a human mother. Des was sent to help Sentry lead the cult and make choices that favored their father, but she was enamored with Sentry's power and considered his beauty an equal to hers, the two began an affectionate (as much as a Bhaalspawn can be) sexual relationship and Des worked as Sentry's right hand. She facilitated many of his official meetings with Enver Gortash through her seduction of a high ranking Banite priest who served Enver. Des is also a brilliant doctor, creating wonderful horrors that rival even those of Myrkul's followers in her lab.
Tomi Kisaragi:
A diplomatic and subtle killer, born of a union between Bhaal and an evil feytouched druid. Tomi murdered her mother and seven sisters back in Kozakura before journeying to Baldur's Gate to be the head poisoner at the Temple of Bhaal. She is a consummate diplomat and a well liked noble who uses her charm, beauty, and knowledge of patriar decorum to kill high value targets in the upper city. She dotes on Sentry as a favored little brother and he trusts her the most out of all of his underlings.
Gabraela Grimmaldi:
A former Flaming Fist who once had a husband and daughter, but she killed them at the behest of her father Bhaal. She feels immense guilt and pain over this and is generally silent and imposing. She is Sentry's bodyguard and sees him as a surrogate son, her chance to make things right and have a family again. Sentry views her as a nagging parental figure who treats him like a fragile doll.
Jackal Silk:
Cruel, irritable, crass, and chronically envious of Sentry, Jackal very quickly became defiant and argumentative towards Sentry, always arguing with him or second guessing him the minute Sentry was strong enough to take his place as Chosen. Before Sentry was strong enough to fight back, though, Jackal would force himself on him and abuse him as a show of power. As a result, Sentry is violent and unforgiving when Jackal requires discipline, often treating him as a punching bag.
Sarevok Anchev:
Once considered the primary breeding partner for Sentry given the level of power he once rose to. Sentry didn't agree with this assessment, however, and he hates and fears Sarevok because of what the parents Bhaal saddled him with tried to force on him. Sarevok, in turn, sees Sentry as weak, flighty, and unworthy of his position as Chosen. He Dislikes how close Orin and Sentry were and drove a wedge between them.
AITA for telling my little sister (not bio sister, it's complicate) that her grandpa is also her dad?
I (can't remember my age, M) got really sick of my baby sister O (24???, F) ruining my love life (she first disapproved heavily of my previous partner (50-ish, M) and literally stabbed me in the head and told everyone I died to stop us from dating. Then, when I finally recovered and got back out there, she pretended to be a Carnival worker just to mess up my date with my new partner (239, M). And then to make things worse, she followed me through the entire city taunting me and straight up kidnapped my friend (22,F) and held her hostage until I agreed to a knife fight with her over who our father (my bio father, technically her great grandfather??? Maybe? It's complicated)(?????,M) liked best. So I was understandably frustrated and angry at her bullshit by this point and may have let a pretty messed up family secret slip during the ensuing shouting match in front of the other cultists and also my friend group. She didn't really take it well and I feel like if I hadn't said that maybe we could have talked it out and both broken free of father's unreasonable expectations but in my defense, what she did was kind of a lot. Like I still have memory loss and prominent scars on my head to this day and it ruined my first relationship entirely....so, AITA?
"Keep Away From Pumpkinhead unless you're tired 'a livin', his enemies are mostly dead, he's mean and unforgivin'" Just a little ramble about what went into my decisions for Sentry's slayer form design:
Bhaal Family Slayer designs for my Bhaalspawn OCs:
Sentry Ojeda
Very similar to Pumpkinhead from the film series of the same name. Has blades on the elbows and back facing knees as well as the tail.
Gabraela Grimmaldi
Appears similar to the folklore monster The Nuckelavee, also shrouded in ice and with the horse hooves shod with cold steel shoes laden with spikes.
Tomi Kisaragi
Similar to Falin's red dragon chimera form in Dungeon Meshi, but strange fungal growths create a mycelium network throughout her body and allow her to puppet enemies she has already slain or gravely wounded.
Jackal Silk
Appears similar to the Leshen design from the Witcher games. A malevolent and powerful forest spirit that uses nature itself to hunt and kill his prey.
