Could you please do some headcanons about Chiyo's childhood and youth?
New Tav OC Headcanons
Chiyo Arrigorriagakoa
I'm so glad you find my weird woman interesting @spacebarbarianweird! Chiyo is a new OC for a new series of stories I'm writing (hopefully one chapter will be completed soon). I just got the idea when starting a new playthrough (after being locked out of my Zélie's one before the final fight, damn it all) and she just wouldn't leave me alone.
So here are some headcanons from her youth. First, her parents:
- Her father, Chaszmyr, is a drow high priest and her mother, Tora, is a human monk. Both are Ilmater devotees.
- That should (should) make her a half-drow. But I won't say more because I want to reveal things gradually as the story progresses.
- Her father is the only son of the noble house Faen Tlabbar, from the North Underdark.
- Was, because he ran away to escape the forced marriage and prejudice of Drow society. He is also good-aligned and, as such, repulsed by the Lolth's worship.
- He ran and ran from the guards chasing him until he exited the Underdark and found himself on a freezing and inhospitable mountain ridge.
- Almost passed out from exhaustion, he was saved by Tora Arrigorriagakoa, a young monk watcher scouting the mountains.
- She did not see him merely as a dangerous drow, but as a creature in need, so she took him to her home, the Monastery of the Yellow Rose, in the far North of Faerun.
- After a few years, they married and had a daughter, Chiyo.
- Chiyo's father eventually became a high priest of Ilmater.
- Her mother rose to the rank of Grandmaster of the Yellow Rose.
Chiyo's youth:
- She was the third child born in the monastery rather than an orphan dropped at their doors. The first two were her grandfather and her mother.
- Her white hair and red eyes (courtesy of her drow heritage) unsettled many of the other children. The monks were polite enough to her and her father, but wary.
- She often spent her free time with her parents. In her father's library, she read about the region's laws and government. Her mother would train her in martial arts and take her on shorter trips across the mountains.
- When Chiyo was 8, her mother almost died—and permanently injured her right leg—to protect a young man from a pack of gnolls.
- The man turned out to be a thief hiding from guard patrols; he left Tora out to freeze to death.
- When Chiyo learnt about this, she was furious. She promised herself not to risk her life without a good cause.
- Since then, she's been pretty lawful neutral. She doesn't break the rules actively and she happily helps others, but she won't go out of her way to play the hero.
- Chiyo grew up like any young monk, starting from humble jobs—like cleaning and cooking—to establishing her reputation in one of the Lesser Orders of the monastery.
- She followed in her mother's footsteps and became a disciple of the Order of the Rose, whose members specialise in martial arts and fighting evil.
- She loved working as a Watcher, a sentinel in the peace and quiet of the mountains.
- As a Watcher, she also got to travel to the cities and towns of the region.
- At age 17, she successfully rode the remorhaz—a monstrous centipede native to the mountain chain—earning the rank of a Master of the White Worm.
- She was the third youngest monk to accomplish such a deadly task.
- Her new status meant she was sent on missions as an emissary for the monastery.
- After experiencing the variety of the outside world, the monastery life started feeling claustrophobic.
- She decided that, after completing her training, she would become a lore collector, travelling around Toril to gather knowledge to bring back to the monastery.
Thanks for your request!
Wow what a story! I want to read about her parents and their love story! And also the White Worm!
Instinct
Synopsis: Astarion and Tiriel have a very busy night after a battle and have to deal with unexpected consequences.
Tags: smut, breeding, hurt/comfort, some emotional angst It's not exactly a breeding fic since neither Astarion nor Tiriel planned to have a child, but the shameless smut ended with unplanned pregnancy. And now they have to deal with what comes next. Bonus: you will learn why Astarion calls Alethaine 'princess'

Random Fun Facts about Tiriel and Astarion
- Tiriel has been afraid of vampires all her life. It was probably the only thing she was truly afraid of.
- So...kudos to her for letting Astarion feed on her.
- Tiriel doesn't like being bitten. She gives Astarion blood, anyway - it's a medicine for him, helps with anxieties.
- When Tiriel was little, she heard a fairytale about the origin of her human ancestors. A long time ago, a female warrior who was half a giant was tasked with the murder of a monstrous beast. She found the beast and realized it was an enchanted prince. She killed the witch who had done it to him, returned him to his human form, and married.
- So, Tiriel had a very clear scenario in her head. There is an enchanted prince somewhere she needs to set free and marry.
- And despite the fact the man in the fairytale was a human, Tiriel always imagined him as an Elf.
- Tiriel has some drinking problems - after fights, she drinks ale to soothe the pain.
- And she is eager to take part in tavern brawls.
- Astarion is protective of Tiriel. He makes sure her armor and weapon are taken care of. He carries her to safety after the battle is over and doesn't allow her to get up until she recovers.
- Tiriel, being an ultimate mountain girl, has very weird ideas about how the world works.
- For example, she believes the Spine of the World is actually a sleeping dragon.
- She loves it when Astarion reads to her or explains some difficult concepts.
- Astarion finds almost boyish joy in telling her some absolutely well-known facts and seeing her awe.
- Tiriel has a breeding kink and often jokes about getting knocked up (she is a warrior, she needs an army of red-headed babies to carry her legacy)
- All fun and jokes until she gets pregnant for real.
- And gets a silver-curled daughter with the mannerisms of a princess.
- Who is also very clingy.

Show me your bg3 Tav!
So as of the new year I've gotten to play Baldurs Gate 3
I would love to see all your favorite Tav screenshots or illustrations! With a bit of additional information: their names, classes, background and their romance! I kinda just want to indulge in everyone's creativity :D
Tiriel the Barbarian, or Tiriel of the Sunset Mountains, is a Half-Elf with Chaotic Allignment. She is an affair child, and her mother treated like shit because she was a "fairy bastard".
When Tiriel was 15, her human siblings tried to kill her, but, instead they woke "rage" in her, a primal fury of their warrior ancestors.
Tiriel is brave and easily get into the fights. For her, there is nothing better than a good tavern brawl and ale. She can survive in the wild for months and usually solves her problems with yelling at people she doesn't like.
It's also possible she is dyslexic since no one has managed to teach her how to read. But she speaks a dozen of Common dialects and knows hundreds of songs and fairytales.

answer in the tags: if your tav was a recruitable companion in bg3, where on the map would you find them and what would they be doing? would they be hostile to the player, or need their help with something before they could be recruited?
Tiriel would be found in the Blighted Village slaughtering goblins. Why is she doing this? What is she trying to achieve? What tadpole? A mystery!
And she would gladly join the gang just for fun. "I can rage!"
"We have Karlach and she can rage, too"
"You know what's better than a Barbarian Woman? Two Barbarian Women! Oh, and who is this elf in your party? Is he single?"
spacebarbarianweird reblogged
which oc would you say was your ‘oc of the year’? (because you made them this year, they had the most development this year, or you just feel like it)
This grump right here
Tiriel the Barbarian! A Half-Elf Barbarian with Chaotic Good Allignment!
Broke: Realizing that you accidently named your OC Tav as a character from another videogame and being sad about it. Woke: Tyrael the Barbarian was born in a human village where every single person hated Elves and Elven culture. The girl was abused and neglected due to her mother's infidelity as if it was her fault the married woman had fallen for a stranger. Instead of a name, Tyrael had offending nicknames like "that girl" or "fairy bastard". After leaving the village for good, the young warrior decided to take an Elven name (since Half-Elves who are raised my Humans usually take Elven names and vice versa). She had no idea what names Elves usually have and just chose one which sounded "Elvish" to her. The origin and the meaning of her name is unknown but elves usually assume it's some human name with a reference to Tyr, God of Justice.
I am bored at work
Tiriel (she\her) - Half-Elf Barbarian. Her human ancestors are the people of the Sunset Mountains who believe there is fire in their veins. Despite her resent toward humans who raised her, Tiriel has much more common with warriors and barbarians of the wild rather than with elves she knows nothing about.

My favourite type of posts! Tyrael: Half-Elf Barbarian with Chaotic Good allignment, deeply in love with Astarion
- No. Her motherland is somewhere far to the north of the Western Heartlands.
- She has a lot of human siblings born to her mother and stepfather. Tyrael was hated and abused for being a "fairy bastard" and siblings liked to remind her of that. She had relatively good relationships with a younger sister but as she got older, she started bullying Tyrael as well.
- Tyrael was raised by her human family. She has many relatives but none of them ever showed any love to Tyrael.
- Absolutely not. She left home at the age of 15 and never looked back
- Tyrael has shamanistic beliefs.
- Tyrael was pushed down from the cliff by her siblings to the certain death. The fear, pain and hatred awoke "rage" in her - a unique warrior skill. Raging, Tyrael beat her abusive stepfather and older siblings and ran into the Wilderness.
- Since she left home, Tyrael had been adventuring and traveling non-stop.
- No pets but she is a cat person
- Tyrael is a professional adventurer.
- Tyrael has serious body image issues and was afraid of any form of intimacy for her entire life, so Astarion became both her first sexual partner and her first romantic interest.
- No
- No
- Tyrael is just anoter adventurer but some of her former mates might remember her
- No, she never had friends as a child. Eventually she befriended a young Wood Elf but they separated a few years prior to the game.
- Again, no.
- Once Tyrael had to hide from her drunk mother at the old healer's hut and his elderly wife read fairytales to her. One of them was about a warrior woman who saved an enchanted prince from his demise. Tyrael doesn't really remember the details of the story but it definetely projects on her relationship with Astarion.
- Mother trying to drown her for being a "fairy bastard"(like, lady it's not the child's fault you couldn't keep your legs sut)? The stepfather cutting her ear off? A murder attempt by her siblings? Difficult to name one.
- Tyrael had a desperate hope her elven father would return to the village and take her with him to raise among the elves. It never happened.
- Tyrael had a lot of unhappy memories but she had happy ones as well. Defeating her first monster and being praised for that. Seeing the most beautiful sunrise. Getting drunk with her Wood Elf friend. Learning yet another song.
- No
- Tyrael is as uneducated as any human from the Wilderness. She can't read and has little to no idea how the world functions. But she is keen on survival. Speaks a dozen of dialects and knows thousands of stories and songs.
- No, but she will give birth to a dhampir girl called Alethaine twenty years post-game.
- Tyrael Hedcanons (get to know OC Tav) and NSFW Tyrael x Astarion headcanons

A short fluff for BG3 Winter Holiday Challenge.
Prompt: Snow&Ice
Tags: fluff, pregnancy
Read on AO3
Astarion gasps as the freezing grasp of the nightmare lets him go. He doesn't remember what exactly decided to torment his mind this time, but it wasn't anything pleasant, that's for sure.
For a few seconds, Astarion can't understand where he is. It's a dark room with a low wooden ceiling. The blizzard howls, threatening to freeze to death anyone who dares step outside.
"Hm?", he hears a sweet sleepy voice. Gentle hands wrap around his body. "Nightmares again?"
Astarion turns his face to you. The warmth of your body returns him to reality, washing away the dirt of the cruel visions.
"It's all right", he whispers back. "Sleep."
You adjust yourself to his body, intertwining your legs with his and placing your head on his chest. You are so close he can hear blood streaming through your veins.
Before, he could ask you for blood. But not now.
Your rounded belly rests on his stomach. Your half-elven body easily betrays your pregnancy - it's visible to everyone with eyes.
And Astarion is scared. That is probably what came to him in the nightmare. Something about this thing that's so natural for mortals and so unnatural for the undead.
Pregnancy.
He caresses the belly trying to concentrate on something else. On something good.
But, gods know, it's difficult.
"Astarion, you are starving. You need to go on a hunt", you whisper to him, finally opening your eyes.
"I didn't know you were so eager to become a single mother", he chuckles. "It's too cold even for me"
"Maybe you will ask someone in the town? They will gladly share animal blood with you."
"Trust me, they tolerate me only because not once in these five years I've tried to feed on something that belongs to them. Vampires can live without food for years, love. I can wait at least a day before the blizzard ends."
You sigh and tug him closer. He can see your freckles, these gorgeous sunmarks. Red hair. Half-elven ears.
He still can't fathom this idea. It's something abstract, unreal. Just a word without a meaning. Your body is changing. Sometimes you have such insane mood swings he has no idea what to do. And you feel so delicate in his arms that he is afraid to hurt you.
"Are you afraid?", you finally ask.
"Yes. I am."
A pleasant silence falls once again.
"Me too. Considering how shitty my own mother was, it's not like I have a healthy maternity example. On the bright side, I have a very clear idea of what I am not supposed to do with an innocent child."
"It will probably be a dhampir, love. Aren't you afraid of that? That it's just a monster inside you?"
"I willingly went to bed with you. What else would I expect?"
You hug him tight and he is lost in your breathing and the heartbeat. So alive. So kind. So brave.
He willingly went to bed with someone whose weapon of choice is a two-handed axe he can't even lift. Someone who could easily pet a dragon. What else did he expect? Of course you aren't afraid of monsters.
But it doesn't mean he isn't scared of the future to come.
"I am cold", you suddenly say.
"I am sorry", he tries to pull away - his cold body isn't a great source of warmth.
"Don't move!" you tighten your muscles not allowing him to go.
"I will make you colder."
"So what?"
He gives up and keeps enjoying your warmth. Does the baby have this warmth, too? Or it's more undead than mortal? It bugs Astarion that he hasn't found any information on how the pregnancy is supposed to progress if the child is a dhampir.
Does it even have a heartbeat?
It seems like you have fallen asleep once again. He smiles, studying your face in the dark.
The sound of a blizzard lulls him so is your breathing. Nothing to be afraid of. The past is past, no matter how horrible it was.
And then Astarion hears another sound.
He can't understand what this is and is surprised that your heartbeat feels so weak.
Then he hears yours, loud and stong.
And the other one, weak and hardly identified by his sharp senses.
It seems like he flinches because you are awake again.
"What is it?"
Astarion sits up and puts his hands on the belly. The tears flow down his pale face and he doesn't try to wipe them away.
"My love, what happened?" you reach out for his curls and touch the tip of the right ear.
"I-", the words are stuck in his throat. "It's the heartbeat. I can hear our child's heartbeat!"
Astarion tugs you closer for a kiss. He laughs joyfully, muttering words of gratitude in Elven as if forgetting how to speak Common all of a sudden.
You spend what looks like an eternity in each other arms. Then, you pull away a bit.
"Astarion. I am so sorry to ruin the moment but I am dying of hunger, too. Can we go downstairs? I will fetch something for myself and the baby."
He chuckles. "Don't be ridiculous, darling. You stay in the warmth under the blanket and I will cook for you."
"You?" you laugh innocently. You've been together for twenty years and Astarion rarely has to cook only if you fell so sick he has to feed you.
"Well, I suppose our child won't drink blood. So, I have a few more months to learn how to prepare food."
"At least let me help you before you burn the house", you reach out for him and he lifts you in the air. "Will you get me back on my feet?"
"No, why should I?"
You put your head on his chest. "All right, then. Carry us downstairs, my beautiful husband!"

Astarion x Wizard!Tav Headcanons NSFW
Sooo… I like making my life difficult but I also want you all to be happy and enjoy NSFW headcanons. Besides, wizards are a popular class and they are known to be slutty.
Thank you @tallymonster @satanicspinosaurus @tragedybunny and @rachelle-on-the-run for ideas!
Feel free to send me requests about other classes and races
- So, you've always been this shy girl who is more interested in books and studies rather than dating and going out.
- Actually, you've been this Swords Coast version of the "not like other girls" meme.
- And you are very inexperienced in terms of sex.
- Theoretically, you know what sex is but practically - no.
- Astarion mocks you innocently all the time.
- "And I was told wizards are slutty! Maybe you aren't a wizard after all!"
- But he is very careful with you, maybe, fearing to hurt you even more than you are afraid to hurt him.
- First, he shows you how to pleasure yourself ("You know, I have times when I won't even dare to undress in front of you").
- Then, showing you how to pleasure him.
- "There are a lot of things you can do with that mouth and hands of yours".
- At first, you are embarrassed like nine hells with all those lewd things you do under his guidance.
- But with time you relax and start doing what you can do best.
- Learning and studying.
- You study your body - what you like and what you don't.
- Astarion simultaneously does the same - he has experience, yes, but he has no idea what he actually likes.
- And your mutual sexual preferences develop accordingly.
- But of all sexual practices, what do wizards like the most? Books.
- You've never read for fun. Astarion starts bringing you books - especially, erotic novels.
- Astarion reads them to you with his sluttiest and horniest voice.
- "They even didn't get to penetration, and you are already red. And there is an orgy in the next chapter!"
- Once you feel comfortable with your body you start expressing your needs openly as if incanting a spell.
- "I want you to bend me over. And slap me in the process."
- He mocks you every time but always does what you ask.
- Using magical things sounds weird - what if some of the notorious wizards learn how you use magic for your pleasure?
- "Darling, people use magic for the weirdest things - and no one cares. Besides, murdering and torturing people with magic is much worse than having sex. Well, I do enjoy magic murders - so why not enjoy magic sex?
- The first spell you start using is "Silence" - you are both very loud.
- "Mage hand".
- Oh, the things you can do with the "mage hand"!
- It can pull, tug, slap … Finger you when you give a blowjob. Stroke his cock when he licks your pussy.
- It also helps with Astarion's issues. You use ropes to tie him to the bed and conjure the "hand" to caress his naked body and do a handjob while you sit in front of him and enjoy the view (and listen to his delightful moans)
- "Mirror image". You've become rather horny, but you don't want other people in bed, this relationship is only for you two. So you conjure Astarion's mirror copy to be the second man in the process.
- Enjoying double penetration and threesome without crossing your and Astarion's boundaries.
- "Water Breathing". Why not have sex in that nicely looking-pool?
- "Invisibility". It sparks a lot of imagination if you can't see your partner.
- "Hold person". A temporary paralysis. Astarion never allows you to use it on him, it brings the worst memories, but you are perfectly fine with giving full control to your beloved vampire.
- Who just does everything he wants to your motionless body for the whole hour.
- "Borrowed knowledge". You have no clue how to do shibari. For an hour, you do.
- "Fly". Having sex in the air - just don't forget to put something soft on the floor because you will be too busy to pay attention to how much time has passed.
- After sex, he usually meditates. You've tried to use spells like "sleep" and "dream" on him, but they don't work. Maybe it's for the best, meaning, he is still an elf more than a vampire.
- You stay beside him reading yet another erotic novel while gently touching his curls.

Anonymous asked:
astarion with wizard!tav
Oh, this one is tricky! Never played a wizard (I am too dumb for this class) and I hope I haven't dissapointed you!
Astarion x Wizard!Tav Headcanons
- You are this bookish person who rarely goes out.
- Like, you left home for once, and look what happened! You were kidnapped and got a tadpole in your brains!
- You are smart, intelligent, and know a lot of things. Spells, history, religion, and some weird facts are suitable only for quizzes.
- Astarion loves listening to you - he's missed a lot of things within those 200 years, and you help him to catch up.
- What do you mean there was a Spellplague? And magic stopped working for a whole decade? And the Time of Troubles when some gods ceased existing?
- And you somehow know more about elves and vampires than he does.
- "I've read the older vampire is, the longer they can spend in the sunlight. Ancient vampires are almost immune", you once casually told him, and this glimpse of hope stuck with him for a long time.
- You aren't social - moreover, you absolutely cannot survive in social situations.
- And you were oblivious to Astarion's flirting - like none of his seductive words worked on you. You just didn't get them.
- But in the meantime, Astarion started appreciating it. Old habits die slowly, so when he sometimes slips back into all "seduce and fuck" things, it just doesn't work on you.
- You know a lot of spells, and you are ready to use them. "Silence" during sex not to attract unnecessary attention. "Darkness" to protect Astarion from sunshine. "Protection From Evil and Good," which helps from inner demons as well as real ones.
- But sometimes, you overstep Astarion's boundaries because you think you can help him.
- Once, you used telepathy to console Astarion, only to hurt him by violating his mind.
- "The only thing that was left intact was my mind, and you decided to get in there!" he yelled at you and disappeared for a few long months while you stayed alone in the wizard tower with only books as a company.
- He returned. Of course, he did. But he wanted an apology, which you gave him, and the promise to ask about spells to use on him.
- You have a shared love for books and a vast library where you read together and discuss things you've just learned.
- You are looking for clues to cure his vampirism or, at least, give him the ability to walk in the sun.
- There must be something! Something in this hellish amount of books.
- Astarion isn't excited. He knows you are ambitious and need to know when to stop.
- And there are too many stories of wizards who lost control of their powers and knowledge.
- Besides, some artifacts and spells cost too much for the wizard, and he just wants you to avoid risking yourself for him.
- After all, in your relations, he is a hero.
- He is stronger and a better fighter.
- He is street-smart; meanwhile, you are obviously book-smart.
- So he knows how to survive.
- And if strange visitors want something from you, beware your husband, who will sit them down and question them like a professional interrogator.
- If you need a specific magic item - just say. Astarion will bring it. Just don't ask where he got it and how.
- "Blood? What blood? Oh, that blood!"
- He loves giving you things - books, primarily, but he also wants to ensure you have other things that bring you comfort, like a delicate shirt or a dress. Or a wizard hat.
- And you return the favor. Astarion has a fire-enchanted blanket, which is warm on its own, and a darkness cape that allows him to walk in the daylight for a few hours until the spell weakens.
- And, of course, the reflection spell. Now, Astarion knows how he looks.
- When Astarion is an absolute mess and tells you he feels like drowning, you conjure the spell and let him look at himself, which helps him feel the ground again.
- You are easily wounded in a fight - and he does everything to protect you.
- "You body is a fragile vessel of fine potion," he jokingly says.
- But he always worries sick - especially when your wounds are of magic origin.
- He just doesn't understand what is happening to you, and it makes him sick.
- Of course, there is Gale to ask for help from, but he soon realizes that the two wizard nerds aren't as powerful as they think.
- Books. You read "useful" ones on magic, history, and others. You have never had time to read for fun!
- So Astarion starts bringing you fiction novels. Some stupid adventure stories or straightforward erotica.
- Initially, you were hesitant - you aren't used to spending time on nonsense.
- But later, you found yourself enjoying a series of novels about the adventures of treasure hunters in the deserts of Halrua.
- And love stories. You are absolutely lost in them, especially if they are somewhat spicy.
- But you don't want to read yourself - you need Astarion's voice to narrate them!
- Astarion mocks you often, but you know that behind your back, he can't shut up about you.
- He admires your abilities, your skills, and your intelligence.
- In his eyes, you are the most powerful wizard the world has ever seen.
- And he makes sure you follow your routine.
- Because, of course, you fall asleep on your books and forget to eat or change your clothes
- So Astarion takes this role of a "caregiver" - he makes sure you eat regularly, get enough sleep hours (even if he has to drag you to bed against your will), always have a fresh set of clothes, and don't forget to walk at least once a day.
- "No, please, one more chapter, I am almost done!"
- But no objections - this fantastic brain of yours needs some rest.

*Herr Mannelig - is a Swedish folk ballad about a Mountain Troll who falls in love with a knight. In my HC, there is a similar song composed by half-elfs which tells a story of a human woman who falls in love with an elf.
