Baldur’s Gate 3 – Playthrough 18 – Introduction
As Tolkien put it, "This tale grew in the telling." This is an introduction to my pictorial fanfic in general, and to the story I've prepared based on my eighteenth playthrough of Baldur's Gate 3. It consists of about 750 images, selected out of a pool of over 7000, with captions added. It's the most ambitious fanfic…
BG3 world series – part 3 – Raphael
SPOILER WARNING for all sorts of stuff throughout the game Welcome to the next post of the BG3 world/lore series! In my last post, I talked about how Shar is utter garbage and caused a big chunk of Act 2. I left off by saying that she was responsible for half of the crap that happened in the…
Devora Wilde cameo
Last year, for Real Angela's birthday, I got her a cameo from Neil Newbon, the actor behind the character of Astarion in Baldur's Gate 3. This year (why mess with success?) I arranged for a cameo from Devora Wilde, the actor who supplied the voice and motion-capture for the character of Lae'zel. She provided a bright, cheery…
Last Night’s Game – Ark Nova
Maria and Andrew are fans of Ark Nova. They've played the digital version many times. Last night, they brought their copy of the physical game for all four of us to play. Like Wingspan on our previous game night, the game components had not been touched before and required some unwrapping and punching. In addition to requiring…
Klingon follow-up
My short essay on my search for the Klingons lyrics to Total Eclipse of the Heart has become one of the most popular posts on this site. I know the reason. Folks are trying to find those lyrics, and come across that essay in their web searches. They leave disappointed. I'm on the Discord server for the…
More stuffed animal locations in BG3
Even before the fanfic, let's get this disclaimer out of the way: This essay is a supplement to Real Angela's excellent essay on stuffed bear locations in Baldur's Gate 3. It's not a replacement. Read that article first. Then come back here to learn why her count of stuffed animals was 50, while mine is closer to…
Last Night’s Game – Soul Raiders Chapter 3 and Wingspan
Yesterday we made an attempt at Chapter 3 of Soul Raiders. To remind you of the "story so far": In August 2025 we played Chapter 1 and got through it successfully in a single night. In September 2025 we started on Chapter 2. It's a bigger and more complex story. We were only able to go part…
In Search of Klingon lyrics
For reasons that will only be clear if someone watches tonight's episode of Star Trek: Strange New Worlds, I spent some time trying to find the lyrics of Bonnie Tyler's Total Eclipse of the Heart in the original Klingon. While some popular songs have been returned to their full Klingon glory, Total Eclipse of the Heart's restoration…
Last Night’s Game – Vestige again
In my previous Last Night's Game post, I talked about trying to play a game of Vestige. We had to stop that game because it was getting late. This time, we decided to start the evening with Vestige. From the wording of the above picture captions, you've probably figured out that we didn't finish the game. We…
