Larian Studios Forums Divinity: Original Sin 2 Divinity - Original Sin 2 - General How do you role play

Some spoilers


So far the furthest in the game I've gotten has been playing two player with my cousin Joten (we're both using lone wolf). We're both skeletons, he's being a sneaky thieving archer and I'm the persuasive warrior who tries to convince people that I didn't steal anything. Which fails and gets me thrown into jail sometimes. Jails not so bad, Joten can normally come get me out.

For fun any dialogue that seems in anyway kinky or flirtatious is getting clicked. I decided that my skeleton is just looking for love. Which has turned out hilarious so far:

1. Dorotya, that witch in the cave just totally seemed to be coming on to me. The whole time I was like "Joten, leave the cave. I'm going to need some alone time with this lady." My skeleton was totally seduced, when she pulledme in for that kiss I was like "here we go!" Then she started spitting bugs down my mouth. There was an option to pull away, but I was like "I better not, this is probably what she's into. I better go with it." Then she attacked me and it broke my skeleton heart.

2. Fane, was on the lower deck of the ship after leaving the first island. We were just making small talk then Fane asked "Is this some kind of mating ritual?" My love sick skeleton thought to himself "hmmm, maybe I'm just a skeleton dude that's into skeleton dudes. Joten go steal from people up on the top deck for a while! Fane and I need to bone." Then Fane told me he felt nothing and I walked away rejected and sad. Then I felt better when Joten stole a bunch of skill books for me.

3. Dorotya, was just hanging out smoking druaane(sp) with me then she starts flirting with me and has me follow her to make out. I follow her to a dark corner while Joten goes on his robbing spree. Then she tells me "Oh, you need some skin on your bones for me to kiss. So I yell "I can change baby!" and run to go get the late Fane's mask. I get some flesh on my skull and she's ready for start fooling around. Then she turns into a giant spider... I shrug and lean in for that kiss. She bites me in the face. So far that was the best experience.

Thats pretty funny. My first character was an ancient Human skeleton Trickster. He was a scholar that loved to play pranks and was executed for insulting a noble. He rises from his grave and spends 200 years as a wandering Scholar/Comedian/Thief with his magical wagon until the order gets him. Hes joined by the most "fuck the police" group possible: Sebille, Fane and Beast. After completing their stories as a friend the time to decide who becomes a divine comes. Fane dont really care, so its about me Beast and sebille. Before they could reach divinity I unleash my secret weapon... The migthy Barrel of gandalf! A barrel filled with random shit teleports on the way blocking beast, sebille becomes a chiken and I proceed alone eventually facingn Rex Where I unleash my most powerfull spell: Wrath of the mad god! I teleport a barrel filled with cheese and poison on his head during his villain speech desroying his armour and damaging him. Then I use chameleon cloak and cloak and dagger to punch him in the head stunning him, tentacle his ass, turn him into a chicken since the cooldown was over and cut his tendons. Then I Get naked (the skeleton), start and shout: bathe in my Divine Bony glory For I AM THE Herald of trickery, the Lord of change, The legendary Fistfucker. I AM BOB!
rex dyes before summoning the kraken and I become the divine. Then the party becomes a group of weirdos that go around messing with the powerfull, getting money and causing confusion for giggles.

This thread is amazing. A few years ago I went back to Skyrim and wrote backstories for characters I wanted to play. I gave them a history, phobias, flaws, desires, egos, etc. It was so much more fun to play (a lot was due to the flaws because min/maxing led to a boring game).

I just finished D:OS 2 and I've been thinking of trying to solo the game as an Mage-type (no invis/play dead cheese). This thread has inspired me to work up a character story for him or her
