If Tav is there I think she knows that Tav is the one keeping the group together, but like, she thinks of it as Tav being the heart of the group while she's the real driving force. To the point where if you go too long without going to the Creche she says you're wasting her time and will leave if you don't convince her not to.

Wyll definitely won the bachelor

Wyll and Astarion canonically are constantly just telling the player character how hot they think each other are so 100% correct on his no1 rank lmaoo. In addition to Astarion's line you show here he's also wistfully comments on how "everything looks good on him" when talking about his new horns (him being super unbothered by the new look + being able to relate to a violent and painful change of physicality is so... mwa, also), picks him as the person in camp he'd most like to drink blood from, keeps making comments about how sweet his blood would taste (and in his origin run his unique 'secret' he can tell halsin is that he's got a sweet tooth). Wyll is just fucking obsessed with Astarion's hair and how nice he is, calls him charming in multiple dialogues and banters with him constantly. If you've not had them together in a party in a while and then pull them in they're so fucking chatty with each other. After killing Ansur they can start planning a... date??? Firmly believe if you're not romancing either of them then Astarion's getting courted just off-screen by Mr Blade.

There wouldn't be a single thing on that entire island that couldn't just kill both of us

"his inability to be conscious at the end of combat" took me the fuck out (like gale halfway through literally any combat)

And the ending where she settles down in a little homestead with her parents? No brainer. She canonically ALREADY has a small army of pets in that ending, and is only too happy to keep adding to it

For “most likely to lead the group in the event there is no origin/tav/Durge” I do think Larian said it best themselves with Gale as leader. He’s the one who can most easily slide along the scale of morality, he is also the most … not charismatic, but diplomatic. Wyll is a good-good run but he also needs to be talked out of hurting Karlach bc he’s beholden to Mizora’s whims. Gale can choose to ignore Mystra or go along with it. Also as the most opinionated amongst a group of ultimately self interested people (personal quests are important) he has an unending need to quiz/question so it makes people feel wanted, even if they feel annoyed. Like, how he’s intrigued about Gith culture or can connect to Shadowheart about overbearing goddesses and how for some reason Minthara roasts him but also ends up down to fuck people up for him. Like, a Drow of the First House goes to bat for him in non-origin. Like?????????? He’s a human male wizard. My point is that he’s got opportunities to make common ground with everyone & also frankly would want to be in charge. After level 5 as well most parties end up being the wizards entourage anyways in TTRPGs. Which is to say…. I respect your ranking but I have my own. This comment feeds the algorithm. Yeeee.

I adore the cursona segment omgs You didn’t include names but I wanna come up with their cursona names. Snow being MM is because of the time she lied about being named “Margaret… I-I mean Mary” and Regina didn’t know about that, so the names just vaguely relate to their past. David is a similar case Lae’zel: Kathrine. Kith’rak, something she’s always wanted to be but isn’t allowed to obtain Minsc: Nameless statue. He was never actually cursed, similar to the mad hatter, he is perpetually conscious and witnessing Everything, and has all of his memories (but is also minsc and therefore has very little memory). Astarion: Caz. Everything he’s never wanted to be and everything he’s doomed to become if someone doesn’t interfere. I think Cazador/Laslo (glorious rule/ruler, referencing his hold over Astarion even in this world) would be his step dad or something. Cinderella story type beat. Shadowheart: Jenevelle. It’s a David/James situation where their cursona name is just their not-fake name from fantasy land Halsin: Oakley. Nuff said Mithara: Ivy. Nuff said Wyll: Nick/Nicholas/Nyck/Nycholas. Means glory of the people/victory, and that was what he wanted to achieve w his original pact w Mizora, but he doesn’t have any of that power here and has no way of protecting/helping his people until Gold or Raphael brings back magic to Storybrooke. (I also think Mizora would be very Cora coded.) Jaheira: Angelina. Ironically referencing the fact that she is a poor mother by comparing her directly to an angel Gale: Dale. I think it’s an ego thing. When the curse eventually DOES break, he’ll feel insulted that he wasn’t given something more creative, and that’s part of the torture. Edit: OH MY GODS I FORGOT KARLACH 😭 Karlach: Raven, symbolizing her own impending doom. Once magic is brought back to Storybrooke, she’s a ticking timebomb again. Ravens are also seen as messengers of the underworld, so perhaps it could symbolize her being able to visit the overworld from time to time. Befriending a raven, while sometimes difficult, can also be very rewarding as they are very social creatures who form tight bonds. She joins Henry when he’s trying to destroy all magic, I think.

When I think of a random ranking idea, for some reason my first idea is "quickest to pay off all the loans in Animal Crossing" and I don't know what that says about me.

Minsc's curse situation being turned into a statue is so funny because you know that that's supposed to be extremely traumatic but he'd bounce back from it like it didn't happen the moment the curse is broken. It's not even the first time he's woken up from being a statue. It's just another Tuesday for him.

OK OK OK but consider!!!! Wyll and Asatrion both have the inherent tragedy of being turned into specifically Monsters against their will. They both have extremely abusive people who controlled/currently control their lives! So both the duality of monster and monster hunter, but also they can understand eachother on a level deeper than most can (Karlach and Gale also get major points here I will say).

I totally ship our pale vampire boy with Gale, Wyll, and Halsin (not necessarily at the same time but I can see him with any of them)… And while I don’t necessarily ship him with Karlach I can definitely see why many people do - they’re cute together and the lack of sex early on must be so much like a breath of fresh air for someone with his backstory / trauma. To me Karlach and him are more like siblings while him and Shadowheart are catty besties 100%.

heavily underestimating shadowheart on a deserted island, even at level one she has access to create/destroy water and if you can get her up to level six before you get trapped or by i dunno fighting crabs on the island thats free hero's feast! youre never getting off the island though but you do survive

I'm very into the Halsin x Astarion ship, and there is so many sweet and sexy fanfics about the two of them. Hell right now the most popular fanfic on AO3 is a Halstarion fic. For me, it works so well because Halsin is such a genuine and kind dude. And he'd have no trouble seeing through Astarions facade. And Astarion only acts this way to gain protection from Tav (and partly as he said, he doesn't know how else to act). So pairing up a really sweet beefy tall elf man who had the ability to turn into a bear, with an emotional wreck of a vampire, well the sweet fluff just writes itself.

As soon as you started the list for Most Likely to Keep Scratch I blurted out "Shadowheart!" lol In my first playthrough we retired to the countryside with her parents and a ton of animals. And during the Epilogue I was able to convince the Grown Owlbear cub to come live with us. When I went over to break the news to Shadowheart she ABSOLUTELY LOVED IT.

Also completely here for tiny angry Laezel. She knows 50 ways to make your life better and 100 ways to end you, she’s hyper competitive, and yet she never gets the respect she thinks she’s due. And she is pissed about it. She’s also, for almost the same reasons, a great bestie or partner. She’s fierce and she works at it.

Karlach on Forged in Fire? Karlach working on motorcycles? You’re killing me. I’m dying.

Dude Gale can summon food he’d have a lavish summoned shelter and spread by the end of day 1 on that deserted island 😂

Yay! Happy to see Bloodweave ranked so high! Those two idiots are perfect for each other, I'll stand my ground on this.

10:10 best part is that Drow are one of the shortest Elves on average in the Player’s Handbook

10:00 Laezel has watched this video and is coming for you.

These rankings are a damn delight and I hope you do more of them! Also I salute you as a sailor of a different ship: wyllstarion has enraptured me to the point where I know the ship name is bloodpact

I am quite proud of my ability to guess who you've chosen as #1 for most (not all) of these lists before watching you break it down.

“Are you smarter than a fifth grader” was supposed to have average people as contestants. Gale wouldn’t be chosen as one. Gale needs to be on jeopardy.

I can not express how hard i laughed throughout this ENTIRE video. Special mention for during the tallest section because I'm currently playing a Gnome and romancing KARLACH.

The SECOND you began talking about Cursonas I immediately went "Shadowheart's a nun" and I am glad to be right

No one wants Minsc in charge. Least of all, Minsc Boo is #1 in charge.

If no one else was there to object Minsc would 100% take scratch with him but unfortunately for Jaheiera that also means she can't hide the dog from her kids.

Astarion's actually described as "approximately 5'11" ingame!

I AM SO GLAD YOU DIF ANOTHER ONE OF THESE THANK YOU FOR YOUR SERVICE

In her Selunite ending Shadowheart deserves the dog for the reasons you said. And in her Sharran ending she needs the dog, because she doesn't get to keep anything else.

Your astarion romance tier list exactly mirrors my fanfic reading habits lmaoo 💀

i need to keep defending minthara on the internet EDIT after finishing the video: minthara no longer needs to be defended on the internet thank you for your service
