you want from a video game romance but a submissive, pretty human girl
I was going to take a short break from this topic, but this part I absolutely must comment on before I leave. No. Under any circumstances - bold, solid NO. Submissiveness is not loyalty. I don't want a submissive partner, neither in fantasy nor in real life. I want an equal and loyal partner. Not inferior, not superior. Lae'zel failed to show her loyalty when she regretted not killing me in the camp, and Shadowheart failed to show equality when she dismissed me as an inferior partner. They both failed the "loyalty and equality" test.
Prettiness is a spice, not the main ingredient - especially with such modding potential. If I have to choose between "pretty" Shadowheart and ugly Karlach, I will always choose Karlach.
