OK, confession time. I disliked Shadowheart at first, like really disliked her. So I dyed her clothes into light colors cause it seems like she’d hate that, being all into Shar and darkness. She has since grown on me, but I still really like these colors on her, even if she might not…

    God, she looks like a circus performer.

    I was the same way about her, sans the dye. I knew people irl who acted like she acts. I found her to be a snobby, narcissistic little bitch, and I only took her with me out of obligation, boredom with the current team, or so I could give her another selune artifact because she hates those. I had minimal if any interest in her amnesia plot mainly because she never even spoke unless she was judging someone unnecessarily.

    She’s still not in my top three and I can’t bring myself to say I’m sympathetic yet, but I am much more interested in what happens to her. As others have said, it really is incredible how bg3 continually does this. If one can only stomach being around them initially, which is a bit hard to do when you’ve got other companions who are just as serviceable and far nicer. I would be curious to see stats released on how many people completed the creche or the gauntlet without her and Lae’zel and missed out on some unexpectedly cinematic character development simply because the player couldn’t stand them long enough.

    If that’s a current pic, she’s going to grow on you more :)

        Have you never, though? She bitches and moans almost every time. Doesn’t seem to have any reaction to clothing, sadly, but statues and books and such, she’ll have something snarky about it
