Due South Fandom! It's been said before that there are rubber ducks in multiple episodes of season 3, but I wonder if they're hidden in every episode? Please tell me the episodes where you know there are ducks, I'd like to see :D
bg3 fans who really like the lore i’m BEGGING you to play nwn2. as cool as it is to be able to tell myrkul’s chosen to kill himself in nwn2 you could literally eat his soul. so
quick family portrait as i try to figure out what heckin species Keena is supposed to be as a spawn of a night hag hagspawn before the game drops and devours weeks of my life (thank Kelemvor there's no college in august!)
"Ritual and circumstance are not easily undone, little bird. And they are rarely accomplished by peace. Will you lead the living to slaughter and die for those already lost? What a sacrifice to demand to those who blindly follow you."
Also, when it says God created Heaven and Earth in 7 days, it doesn't necessarily mean 7 literal days.
A day means a period of time ☝🏾. Yes, He's All Powerful 💪🏾, but God's ways & timing isn't our way & timing. When your grandparents say "back in my day" do they mean one literal day or a period of time ❓💡
Something that might've been interesting (though obviously couldn't be implemented, because it's not compatible with all origins) would've been something like the spirit eater curse from Neverwinter Nights 2: Mask of the Betrayer (which is another game set in the Realms, and also features Dead Three shenanigans. The base game is kinda meh, but MotB is good.)
Basically you're afflicted with a curse that means you must consume spirits/souls to survive, or else the curse will consume your soul, memories and identity and kill you (before moving on to the next host). There's a sort of health metre, which steadily depletes and inflicts penalties on you until you consume a spirit/soul (or kills you, if you won't).
Indulging the hunger unlocks greater soul-eating powers as the game progresses (one of which allows you to consume part of the soul of a god who fucking deserves it), but it also means that the hunger grows stronger and the metre depletes faster.
Also you're a horrific soul-eating monster that spreads its curse like a disease and everybody is quite understandably not happy having you around... except for the guys who worship the potential power you wield and encourage you to let the thing consume you.
There's also the "good" route where you resist the hunger and which unlocks different powers that help you manage it, and honestly while I enjoy that route, I also find it's not "playing with fire" enough but I digress.
I'm not necessarily picturing it functioning the exact same way, and obviously I'm primarily thinking of the Dark Urge here (give Bhaal the blood he demands and get chopping those limbs or have your mind eaten away and go feral-ending) but something like that might've worked for managing Karlach's engine, or Astarion's vampirism. Or even just something to do with the tadpoles - manage the little bastards, or they eat your brain.
