My Mother Plays Baldur's Gate: Part 5

Summary: My retired mom is having me play Baldur's Gate 3 on her behalf because she has trouble using controllers/keyboards but still wants to "smooch the wizard boy." She is playing a neutral chaotic good wood elf druid; this is a detailed account of her crimes. Part 1 & 2 Part 3 Part 4

Sorry for the long break! Life got super busy for a second there. We're about 30-40% of the way through Act 3, and we finished up some companion quest lines and started making some plans to kill Gortash and Orin.

Here's what happened during yesterday's game session:

Scratch gave us an iron bowl at camp. My mom assumed this was somehow plot relevant, so she had me carry it around everywhere because "we might need it." I am not allowed to sell the bowl. She is a druid and her carrying capacity is still garbage. I suffer.

She LOVES Gale’s new kiss animations. I  tasked with smooching him before we leave camp every single time. Even if I just stop by to switch out a party member, I still have to kiss him goodbye. (And pet the animals, obviously.)

We accidentally blew up Volo outside the Steel Watch foundry with a poorly-placed Ice Storm that nicked the edge of the explosive barrels. His corpse was charred and unrecognizable, and my mom was distraught. She demanded to know why I blew him up, so I reminded her that casting Ice Storm was HER idea. We saved him the second time.

Cazador accidentally won his fight several times because we kept rolling dogshit initiative and got zapped by status effects before we could move an inch. The first time Astarion got turned to paste in the ritual, my mom nearly leapt out of her seat. (“RELOAD RIGHT NOW, HONEY.”) We killed Cazador on the fifth attempt, the rotten bastard.

My mom was locked in for the Iron Throne mission. The turn limit really freaked her out, and she kept second-guessing my choices every time I made a move because she was so nervous I was wasting time. I had to gently remind her that I’ve done this mission literally dozens of times. (We got everyone out with a whole turn to spare. Pfffft.)

Got the wavemother robe. I put it on Gale because I thought my mom would love it, but she was actually horrified because he “might catch a cold.” She robe is now somewhere in the camp stash next to all the spoons, iron tongs, and rags. It will probably never be found again. 

Saved the Gondians, and Mom now rides the “fuck Wulbren Bongle” hate train. Shout-out to my boy Barcus!

After watching the conclusion of The Pale Elf quest line (Astarion did NOT ascend, thank you), my mom quietly said, “I hope that actor knows how perfect he is as Astarion. What a wonderful man.” I had the pleasure of informing her that Neil Newbon won Best Performance at the Game Awards for his role. Congrats Neil Newbon, my mom is super proud of you!

Hoping to get together with my mom again soon and make some more progress through Act III. She told me to thank you for all your kind words of support!

Volo is the first main villain in the core series that isn't associated with a villainous team. While he is a member of the Ginkgo guild, they're in no way evil and are just a guild of merchants

Old art (back in 2022 lol) but I still really like how this rendering came out.

He just has those kissable lips.

This is basically just my design for my AU cuz honestly all the concepts i did SUCKED so hard so i just did this and bam, Volo, uh, babagrill, housewife, babygirl, malewife, his favourite pokemon are definetly Giratina and Arceus, definetly, he has posters of them in his damn room, do not ask, im not gonna shut up about this babygirl he is so damn cool i bet he just took the Giratina like nothin and kept it like a dawg yall, its now his lawyer (what am i saying ahr har)

(his hair was so damn fluffy at the beginning but he looked like a completly different character so i just gave him his actual hairstyle that he had in the ginkgo guild in the game, i am NOT giving him that Arceus looking ahh hairstyle that makes him look like a bull smh)

[spotted-owl-sketches]

Happy Volotober everybody!

Yeah so I'm not really on twitter bc it went to shit so I'll be posting on my art blog this year. I wanna say I won't be doing it everyday like last year, as fun as it was that took a toll >w>;; also got irl plans n stuff

I'm also prolly just gonna draw him in general and be loose w the prompt list, which is on @volostan's blog! The theme is crossovers and I don't have a whole lot of ideas for it (head empty from work orz)

Can't wait to see everyone else's submissions tho! This counts as Day 1s scarlet and violet right? Like the colors? No? Too bad

Also if anyone's curious on the flower choices you can always ask :3c

My Volo doll is here !! 🩷🩷✨✨

Yes the base / style is actually from the official doll ( I’m sorry ). I want to buy one but the price is stupid, it’s around 10,000 yen ish, and I have a lot of other priority so I just custom it to local maker.

I kinda repair it a bit because the originally it looks a bit weird , i still cant find the exact material & color , i try to ask the maker

I really love how i can adjust the cap
