OC as a Companion
A couple of weeks ago, in a discord server, I posted a series of hypotheticals about what it would look like if your OC was a recruitable companion in someone else’s game. Folks there seemed to like the activity, so I’ve turned those questions/topics into a master list to share here.
My plan is to answer these each week as I fill them out for Eliwyn, especially since I am writing her like a semi-Tav/semi-companion according to my couch co-op playthrough.
Everyone is invited to join in if they would like!
Imagine your OC was a full companion in someone else’s playthrough:
Where would Tav/Durge find your OC once they started exploring?
What does your OC’s starting gear look like?
What does your OC’s tent look like and where is it in camp?
What are your OC’s idle actions while at camp?
Who is your OC’s dream visitor?
What are your OC’s greetings for all levels of approval/romance?
What is the title of your OC’s companion quest and what are the entries for their quest log? (See the bg3 wiki page for companion quests for reference)
Is your OC romanceable? If so, what are the romance scenes for each act?
What happens to your OC if Tav/Durge slaughters the grove?
What decisions by Tav/Durge might cause your OC to leave the party?
Give some samples of party banter for your OC (see the bg3 wiki banter section for reference)
What are some of OC’s phrases/remarks for different situations? Be as brief or thorough as you like! (see the bg3 wiki remarks section for reference)
If your OC is romanceable, what are the Q&As for Zethino’s love trial? If OC isn’t romanceable how will they respond to a Tav/Durge who tries to invite them to the trial? (see Zethino’s bg3 wiki page for reference)
What are the different endings for your OC, both romanced and not?
If there are other topics/questions I should include let me know!
