If you go the evil path, you only have Astarion and Minthara to choose from anyway, they will follow this path with you until the end. And yes, I'll betray everyone except Astarion or Minthara.

Gale as a god is so boring that he even annoys Tara and his mother. If the story continues there at some point, I think Gale will come to a bad end.

I want to romance Minthara in Astarion Origins, but I won't start that until patch 7 (I was warned about bugs in Astarion Origins, I'd rather wait). She responds so perfectly to Ascension, she's the only one who supports you, and is generally an intelligent and strong woman who has been through a lot herself. Minthara is the only one suitable as a romantic partner for Astarion in his Origin. smile And make a Guardian for him with my character's face. Until it's revealed that it's actually the Emperor, this will be fun.

In my playthrough, Gale was too lazy to become a god, he didn't take the crown at all. He became a professor at the university. In this case, he'll probably end up... with nothing. He'll just teach until he retires. And complain about the students.

This will probably be almost too late for Astarion, I'm not sure if I'll be able to kill Yurgir by then. The blood dealer is no longer in Moonrise Tower at this point and should therefore not be present in act 3 either. I would have to test whether it is possible to trigger this scene via Shadowheart with Yurgir without a long rest.
Pretty complicated. ^^

It's kind of interesting to see if that can happen.

The crooked smile with the little fangs on the little bat's snout is the perfect portrait of the ultimate “sinister cuteness”. <3

“A little gift for the most adorable little vampire on Faerûn! Yep, there he is, the most adorable little vampire! Now he's in risk of becoming the candiest little vampire as well!” - a bag of blood candies as tall as Sceleritas (and two Sceleritas as thick) appears in front of the little bat. Either Sceleritas will have to carry all the unfinished candy on his back, or... I hope that with the Ascended Vampire's regenerations, the little guy can eat that much candy without it hurting the whiteness of his sharp little fangs.

One life, one love - until the world falls down.
