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…
I found Astarion’s “Let’s go hurt someone” line so off-putting that I actively avoided him. My wife took a near instantaneous hatred of Shart (like, to a comical degree - I even explained the cult thing and she didn’t even care).
Oddly enough, we’re both like “Ok Lae’zel’s an asshole, but she seems pretty straightforward and not needlessly cruel.”
