Share your questions about and experiences with aggressive and/or stray dogs in San Antonio
SAINT ANTONIO – Last week’s brutal dog attack that left an 81-year-old man dead and three others injured is a horrific consequence of an ongoing decades-long problem of loose and stray dogs in San Antonio. San Antonio has had a notorious reputation for its issue with stray dogs and animal overpopulation for decades, but COVID-19 […]

Genshin Impact x Baldur's gate 3 headcanons
[1][2]
...or what if Genshin characters were put into the world of Faerûn and you were the Tav~~
Ladies only edition!
NINGGUANG
ੈ✩‧₊˚ STATS
Race: High Elf
Class: Rogue (Thief) x Sorcerer (Wild magic)
Background: Urchin
Her childhood being a constant run for money and trying to make the most out of nothing forced Ningguang to learn her way around the streets of the lower city. She evolved into a Rogue, or more accurately, a Thief, whose abilities of becoming invisible when necessary or stealing in need, carried her around the first stage of her life easily. She grew into a smart woman, who knew her way around idiots.
All that made her into what she is today, a charismatic Duchess of Baldur’s Gate. Once granted the opportunity to rise from the lowest, she didn’t hesitate and worked her way up to become the most known and influential persona of the upper city. That was also the moment she became a sorcerer, being finally granted to thoroughly discover the power within herself and her heritage.
Meeting her was an amazing opportunity, her knowledge about the city proved to be a great resource for you and your group. You knew the moment you first exchanged glances, that she wasn't your usual nobility. A fine ally indeed, who seemed to also bring even more allies for your journey. But wait, who is that brunette Tiefling that is always by her side?
BEIDOU
ੈ✩‧₊˚ STATS
Race: Zariel Tiefling
Class: Fighter (Battle Master)
Background: Soldier
Oh so this is the one that’s always beside her grace? Beidou, the feared fighter of Baldur’s Gate and a martial legend. Her name seems to be spread everywhere, yet time and again people spell it out in fear, rather than in admiration. They say she’s the devil's emissary, and the one that will bring doom to this world. Are they’re right, or is it just some senseless rumor? Who knows…
From a fisher family, Beidou always struggled with money. Only throughout her hard work did she make her name be heard by others, and after some workaround she joined the army. That laid the basis for her abilities that she slowly improved, and made her into the Fighter she is today.
And regardless of what people are saying, no one is able to break Beidous spirit. She doesn't feel the need to be acknowledged by anyone, her own pride is the only thing she needs to be successful. And maybe someone else's pride too… but that’s another story.
You meet her through Ningguang, as she herself explained that the Tiefling is one of her only trustworthy allies, who she trusts with her life. And by the look of it, the rumors are really just rumors, because such high spirit and her approachable way cannot be faked. She treated you like her own the moment you introduced yourself, calling you her comrade. Without any questions she joined your party, making herself comfortable in your camp. And as it seems, one of her major qualities is bringing a big amount of alcohol every long rest.
NILOU
ੈ✩‧₊˚ STATS
Race: Seldarine Drow
Class: Bard (College of Swords)
Background: Entertainer
A bard known to everyone around Faerûn, whose swords are the only thing sharper than her tongue. Considering her drow ancestry, it’s quite surprising seeing her so famous and loved, yet here we are.
Raised in the underdark, Nilou has been on Lolth influence for most of her life. Even if her childhood wasn’t very exceptional, she still wasn’t truly convinced by the Lolth-Sworn practices. After convincing her parents to let her go for the upper world, that was the moment she saw the true nature of this world.
Now converted, she learnt the ways of the daughter of Lolth – the Dark Maiden Eilistraee. She practised sword dancing, and for the turn became a bard, whose mission was to spread the message of her Dark Maiden. Freedom and equality between Drows and the world, she travelled to make her words be heard.
And heard they were, because you meeting her wasn’t arranged per se. A quick trip to the bar to end the day on a good note, you quickly acquainted yourself with the bard lady. Your intoxicated state made you put your prejudice away for this night, and tune in for her songs. Hearing her notes, you were quickly convinced by her, and asked her to join your troop. Outside of combat and your adventure, Nilou is a great entertainer that loves to put you to sleep with her ballads.
SANGONOMIYA KOKOMI
ੈ✩‧₊˚ STATS
Race: Drow Half-Elf
Class: Cleric (Life Domain)
Background: Folk Hero
The all-knowing priestess, who also turned out to be a tactician, seems to be working hard for her people. Coming from a holy clan whose goal is to care and protect its people, Kokomi is a natural “Folk Hero”. Everyone seems to respect her and her authority as a leader, but it wasn’t always like that. Kokomi had to prove herself as a capable commander, who is able to go any length to ensure everyone's safety.
Her Cleric abilities stem from her faith in the goddess Umberlee, but she does not agree with her practices. She merely follows her out of respect as the founder of the sea, and to ensure that she does not try any of her evils on common people. Her Domain being the Life ones is also not a coincidence. She always wanted to help people, and if throughout her power, then so be it. Her abilities made her into a renowned healer, who brings people from far Faerûn to seek her help.
Well, Kokomi doesn’t really look like someone who you would meet, like, ever. But it did happen, and you met thanks to Beidou, who was an old friend of hers as she once seeked her blessing for a calm ocean for her family business. Hearing your troubles concerning your health, she suggested Kokomi in an instant.
And that’s how you met the priestess, who sadly was unable to heal your ailment. Yet she was happy to help out in seeking others help, and giving you her full book of different associates she made in her life. A valuable ally, who in the end joined your forces out of curiosity… and maybe also because of your lack of any tactic in combat.

Fascinated by the framing of the seraphim in the latest chapter. Both Doffy and Moriah have their own little frames where they have big smiles and not looking directly ahead. Meanwhile Crocodile takes up a panel and a half, it’s entirely focused on his somber expression as he stares dead ahead at the reader??!????? Why is he being framed so differently from the rest
Hey anon! (just saw this so apologies if you've been waiting long)
Yeah the difference is clear. and unlike the other seraphim we don't have multiple panels with diferent expressions so Oda definitely has a reason for S-Croc being sombre.
It likely has something to do vith what Lilith said in 1061;
No matter how great Vegapunk is, they can't 100% control the cyborgs they create, including seraphim as seen with S-Bear.
I imagine the Seraphim retain the personalities of thier Schichibukai counterparts,
& so far this matches with the demeanor seen in the seraphim compared to Odas drawing of the child warlords.
(though S-Bear, -Hawk, -Shark, & -Snake have shown more range as they've had more screentime)
Perhaps S-Croc doesn't like being an agent of war for the govt. and we'll understand if/when we get a Crocodile backstory.
But we just have to wait and see.
P.S. on a more silly note (cos this is one piece after all) there is a theory that S-Croc has Magellans fruit as Vegapunk can't replicate Logias and it is a suitable candidate of the known DF abilities to give S-Croc. And if this is the case then S-Croc would also receive the side effect of having excessive diarrhoea if he injests any of the posion. So what we think is a serious expression could just be Oda messing with us before the month hiatus and the reason S-Croc isn't happy is cos he needs to poop.
