soooooo lottie. where to begin. originally she was just supposed to be a joke character for my first run, basically what-if-lottie-matthews-was-the-dark-urge bc i was really into yellowjackets at the time. but lottie tavews really morphed into a character of her own, and i couldn’t be happier.

so lottie is my dark urge, a human (bhaalspawn) blade pact/great old one warlock who uses she/they pronouns. they accidentally triggered every single romance through high charisma and sheer sluttiness but ended up going through with the shadowheart romance (though i HC they’re in a bit of a qpr with astarion as well). i really didn’t want to miss out on much content on my first playthrough, so lottie was my attempt at a balancing act between resisting and indulging the urge. ultimately, they renounced bhaal— a decision that was impacted mainly by shadowheart’s own decision to spare the nightsong. (out of character, i really wanted lottie to be much more passive, and for their own decisions really take cues from the other origin characters).

my hc is that lottie is much older than she looks (probably around 40, though i didn’t touch the age slider during cc so she looks really young), despite being human, and was originally from luskan before the urge drew her south to baldur’s gate. if i could give her a D&D background other than haunted one, she probably would’ve been a charlatan, given her very playful nature and natural tendency towards deceit. she’s also transfemme and pansexual, though the former doesn’t come up in-game really at all.

and to close this out, just a little fun fact about them: despite being a great liar, lottie is terrible at cards
