Neil during his Baulders Gate III Streams in a nutshell
Neil: Astarion is so much more than a pretty face. He's such a well-rounded character with so many layers, and he's just trying to survive and escape absue. In this essay, I will.....
Also, Neil: He'll look so good in this outfit I stole off a corspe.
"That was hysterical. Your masculinity is so fragile that MY nail polish upsets you? That's why I wear it all the time now."
- Neil "not a therapist" Newbon
So I do embroidery. And I have some thoughts on this.
Nothing in Bg3 suggests the existence of embroidery machines, at least to my knowledge.
That means that any embroidery would be done by hand.
Assuming what's pictured are the front of the briefs, that means the entire embroidered text is on the back.
Now, consider the average size briefs. Working with just the back, that's maybe 40cm or just over a foot across?
So. No embroidery machine, no room to hold the pants taught while he stitched, maybe just a pencil to draw out the letters.
This man embroidered an entire sentence across the ass of his favorite briefs. 16 words, apparently completely legible. I've been embroidering for years. The extremely tight curves needed to make lettering that neat at that size takes a level of skill and patience far beyond me.
The Pale Elf - he is a master of his craft, known only to those he lets master his ass.
