I'm Emi (they/them) and this is a blog for stuff for games about gates- trying to contain my stuff over here instead of on main as much as possible for the sake of folks who don't want to see it. This is not a spoiler free blog and I'll sometimes reblog or post 18+ content here, so don't follow if that's a concern!!! You can ask me to tag anything.Emi is short for Emissary. This is from my main blog's url.
Don't wanna be here? Send us removal request.

mister grand duke could you speak on your influenced by bhaal and executing people in public era
by the triad. so the worm turns its head on me for another day. have we considered that people make mistakes. what would you have preferred. that i died badly? you saw what happened to my beautiful flaming fist when i was lost in elturel. once you run out of deep familial bonds to sever it becomes infinitely easier to have a weird situationship with bhaal. as millions of residents of this city would tell you. don’t contact me again.

dead siblings are so. it's like. i can never again be who i was before i lost you. i will never be anyone else because i did. who i am now is not someone i would ever be if you were alive. i don't know if you would like who i am now. i don't know if you liked who i was. i just know you loved me and i wish you were still here to hate me. i leave my door cracked in case you don't feel like knocking. i wait for you to show up there like you used to, lingering on that edge of never welcome and always wanted. i will never hear that knock. i will never again hear your knock

Mutual pining is great, but you know what's even better? Mutual pining where they're both fully aware the feelings are requited, they just can't do anything about it for other reasons. Or maybe they technically could but they've had to choose not to, because of The Circumstances.

One of the funniest things about Ketheric Thorm as a character is that they made a villain who has all the cliché signs of being the "redeemable" one (dead wife, nice daughter who cares about him, outwardly sane compared to his coworkers, has a dog), so you go through all these dialogue checks and persuasion rolls believing that you can turn this one good, but every time you hit him the "please, this isn't who your wife wants you to be; you can do better, " something happens to grandpa that makes him double down on being bad, transforming into a more progressively evil version of himself every time. It's like the DM is actively trolling the players. Oh, you believe some rando can reset this centuries-old man's moral compass with just a few reminders about his dead wife??? You naive, ignorant, trope-poisoned fool, I'm making him worse!

a character type i'm really into is the ex-something - exile, obviously, but also anyone who used to have a role that was also an identity and now does not: ex-mage, ex-assassin, ex-monarch --
it's about loss of identity and recreation of identity; it's about how being an ex-something is impossible because the ghost of what you were haunts what you are now; it's about reshaping the way you see the world and yourself in the world.

As cool as being corrupted would be, my spirit is lowkey indomitable and I have an automatic aversion to doing what people tell me to do

One of the less talked about Larian missteps with Wyll's romance is how much of it is gate-kept by Karlach's fate.
You want to adopt a kid with Wyll? Only available in the Grand Duke ending, which is only achieved if Wyll doesn't go to Avernus with Karlach (and a romanced Tav can't go with Karlach either).
You want to see any of his special end-of-game scenes, where you discuss the future? They get overridden by the cutscene of the three of you arriving in Avernus.
No other romance option has this issue. You can send Wyll and Karlach on their merry way to Avernus and still have a nice scene with your romance option at the end of the game. It's only Wyll's romance that's impacted this way. His already limited content is locked behind letting a fan-favorite character either die or become a mindflayer.
No wonder only 600 people adopted a kid with Wyll.
