               People do things during the weekend?

Wait...it's the weekend? o_O
-looks at her calendar-
WTF HOW DID I MISS THIS?!
               
               

               
            

[Legacy_Deliciously-Demonic]

               Okay, I've been having problems triggering Valen's Beholder convo. All the others run fine, and I have every Valen HotU mod known to man installed, but this...frickin...convo!! It won't ever trigger! Typically, I run around in DebugMode so as to not miss any triggers (since I did a lot in my first playthroughs). Is this the cause of my problems? x_x Help a poor girl out?

               (Sorry for not posting lately, I've been playing DA2. Am now a Fully-fledged Fengirl as well as a Valen Fangirl.)

D-D: The beholder convo? You mean the one where he makes that daft joke? Well, I don't always get it to trigger - sometimes Deekin takes it, and other times it won't trigger as the game still thinks that I'm in a fight.
               
               

               
            

[Legacy_Deliciously-Demonic]

               Damn. That must be it. '> In this playthrough I don't have Deekin in the party (skipped Chapter One) so he can't have taken it over. Maybe I'll load my save from just before the beholders and go through more carefully. '>

(tbh, I edited Valen's dialogue to make the PC responses more like what I could see my characters saying, and I just want to choose the 'ohohoho, so you're a funny tiefling' option. xD)

               My offer still stands: anyone interested will get all my old notes about Valen, his parents and grandfather (crap, of course).

Like:


SCENE# 13.03: The morning after

Valen  opened his eyes, still caught in his dream, not willing to wake up. The  touch  of the
elf’s skin  next to his, the scent of her, the warmth of her body
had felt wonderful and almost real, but it had been only a dream, of
course.

"Last night…,”
Aldatariel  looked into the tiefling’s eyes shyly and longingly at
the same time,  shaking her head when she saw the guilt and shame
there. “I wanted this so much. No. Don’t speak. Do not spoil what
means so much to me.”

Her index finger tracing his lips, she whispered: “Why don’t we try again?”

               That reminds me of a little exchange between Rikardo and Nathyrra:

"Quiet, wench, you're ruining the moment."
Nathyrra raised an eyebrow and faux-slapped him. "Show some respect, jaluk!"
"Yes, Matron Mother..." Rikardo muttered, cowed.

[Sarcasm Mode] See, aren't they the perfect couple with the healthiest relationship that most definitely does NOT revolve around sex, drugs and rock n' roll?
               
               

               
            

[Legacy_Aldatariel Calentaur]

               I wonder what would happen if Aislynn (my chaotic neutral thief, old rules) ever met Rikardo ... or Orlanda (my lawful evil sorceress, ask Alex about her)

Orlanda was able to keep her alignment even though she romanced Valen. Stupid tiefling! Stupid, stupid tiefling! ;-) I intended to take over Cania with her ... darned demonic half-breed, should have killed him.
               
               

               
            

[Legacy_Deliciously-Demonic]

               Orlanda reminds me of my Merriana Sweetberry. >'> Chaotic Evil barbarian/blackguard who romanced Valen whilst keeping her alignment. In my imagination, she took over Cania via Mephistopheles' true name, and corrupted Valen into the Chaotic Evil general of her Baatezu army.
OH YES. >83

I'd imagine he'd flirt with them, and either;
A) Seduce them
Get his ass kicked
or
C) Get distracted by easier targets.
xD

               ^ Hooray! '> *runs off to read it*

Also, I personally want to know what would happen if Aarien or Sel met Rikardo. (D-D, if you're curious, check my DeviantArt journals to find out about them. A.C, you already know about them. '>) I think Sel and Rikardo would be bros, and Aarien would find Rikardo utterly weird, and his half-demon blood - along with Aarien's previous... experience with angel hybrids - would make Aarien instinctively mistrust him.

               Hopefully the next chapter will be up soon; Valen and Elizabeth fluff! Rikardo tells Nathyrra about Hilltop! Max snarks! Moar Enserric! Golems! STAY TUNED! xD

I will tell you this; the party, being as big as it is, splits up a lot to get things done quicker. (i.e, in Shaori's Fell.) So, Rikardo will split the party again; Valen, Liz and Max to the Beholders, and Rik, Nathyrra and Deekin to the illithids.

Rikardo always puts Elizabeth with Valen when the party splits because he feels she safer with him. Rikardo cares about Liz a lot. True fact. -nodnod-

               So...so lonely...so very lonely...
D:

I came up with a new idea for the Uin Baubmac.

Sometimes, the Uin Baubmac have an ability to bind their souls with that of another. The bond is a very sacred one, and it is considered the Gods forever intertwining the souls of two people. The bond, known as the cuim puht, allows those involved to be constantly aware of each other’s presence (though rarely on a conscious level), and should one be harmed or killed, the other will always know. It is said that some bonds are strong enough to allow highly concentrated feelings, such as joy, anger and fear, to be transferred through the cuim puht.

Because of the intimate nature of this bond, it is usually preserved for lovers, family, and occasionally close friends. The bond is created mentally, by willing your soul to merge with that of the other person. Because of this, it is extremely difficult to actually forge the bond, and only those with intense concentration succeed. However, it is possible for the bonds to be created accidentally. Should the relationship be strong enough, the bond could be forged without clear intent.

The forger, or the one who wills the bond to be created, always knows of the existence of the bond; however, the one who has been bonded to, though while feeling the effects, usually will not know unless they are told. Considering how intimate the relationship must be for the bonding to take place, it would be rare for an event where the one bonded to does not know.

Exactly how the cuim puht exist, and why, are unknown, and one can only guess at their true nature.

Tell me what you think? Please?
It's so lonely in here...

               Sounds interesting.

Sorry if I don't comment here very often, my own characters are keeping me busy ...

I don't forget Valen, of course: madoldhag.deviantart.com/#/d3hlfzt
(Artwork is not really mine, of course, please, read the comment.)

               Wow, I hadn't realized how long it's been since I came to the forums! Thank you, everyone, who answered my question from many, many pages ago. '>
D-D (I'm not a regular poster here, can I call you that?), that bond thingy sounds really interesting. I know I'm seriously out of the loop here, but is this a race you're creating on your own for Elizabeth? I thought she was maybe/kinda/in the future going to be a Bhaalspawn, which I was hoping (perhaps vainly) would lead to BG-NWN interactions? (I've had an encounter in that vein floating around my head for a while, but the focus is more on the BG characters, with Valen not really saying much and just watching the chaos unfold.)
Anyway, keep the writing going! I need something to distract me from finals... '>
               
               

               
            

[Legacy_Deliciously-Demonic]

               Of course you can call me that. '>

Yes, the Uin Baubmac is a race I created for my OC. '>

Hmm...not sure how to answer that without spoiling something...there will be BG-NWN interactions (including my Bhaalspawn Diamber showing up). I will neither confirm nor deny if Elizabeth is a Bhaalspawn. Maybe it's someone else. Maybe Rikardo is actually a Bhaalspawn; his mother's race isn't ever confirmed (I'm not exactly sure what I wanna do with her). Maybe Diamber is actually Rikardo's mother. Maybe Max is a Bhaalspawn!
...no? Okay, I'll stop being ridiculous now.

Here, have a Valen.
