"Some things never change". A BG2/BG3 piece featuring my Unholy Trinity and Jaheira/Boo/Minsc
This took FOREVER to finish
First panel(went with a brown aesthetic since it fits BG1-2) has the trinity in their Canon Vampire Hunter gear
Second panel(current time) has their BG3 gear
For those new to my Trinity
They are 3 veteran vampire hunters that hunt godlike vampires in my fantasy setting. I tend to recreate them in games (so I have this plot-canon thing where they unwillingly get throw into different universes)
The BG one is an example, and in my own headcanon with them they basically joined forces with Gorion's Ward and Jaheira and Minsc , in the first game. They were more on their own hunt for the vampire Bodhi and her coven in the Second one and they joined forces midway with the game protagonists, and after a few decades they get thrown back into the BG3 time, this time a bit nerfed due to tadpol shenanigans.
I suffered to get this done tonight before going to bed( a bit sick)
But I hope the few that see this enjoy it XD

I was thinking on what aspect actually makes Minsc a ranger, because apart from speaking with animals his class seems a little mismatched, especially when it comes to the fighting style. He’s a berserker, he wields a zweihänder, so why is he a ranger? And I’ve got an idea.
What if Minsc is really good at the survival skillset of the ranger? Like, he seems like a relatively dumb muscle, but what if he can survive in the wild with little effort - he knows how to navigate, where to find place for camp, how to find freshwater and start a fire, which plants are toxic and which are edible? Because... Dynaheir, while probably pretty practical also doesn’t strike me necessarily as someone who would be well-versed in living in the wilds, and they’ve made quite a distance from Rashemen. They had to travel through a pretty rough terrain. While a usual warrior doesn’t necessarily have skills for pathfinding and other travel-related stuff, that’s exactly when you’d need a ranger. And honestly, if You are entrusting a young witch for someone to protect in a long journey, a ranger works better than a warrior - getting lost in the mountains could be just as deadly as monsters and bandits. Minsc isn’t exactly low-profile, but it would be pretty funny if everybody assumes that due to his issues he’s kind of lost and helpless, and he actually does surprisingly well on his own.
I can imagine that everytime the party stops for the rest, you don’t even need to ask and Minsc pretty much organises the camp automatically. At some point, Charname asks him why he’s moved their tent, and he answers that “It isn’t good when water is dripping on a brave warrior’s head! Boo said he can feel the rain in his whiskers!” or something along the lines.

Baldur’s gate characters and their pronouns
My headcanons for the all of 3 people who are in the fandom on this app. Enjoy!
TW: trans/homophobia, misgendering
__________________________________________________
Ajantis 🛐 “I don’t believe in that nonsense, Helm would be appalled!” Sorry, he wouldn’t vibe with the rainbow mafia. Would purposely misgender folks.
Anomen 🛡 “Erm, pronouns? Why do you ask? I don’t have any. I’m a man?” Confused, but would come around with education. Would accidentally misgender folks, but over apologises and tries to correct himself but mucks it up a lot. He’s trying, okay?
Aerie 🎪 “Pronouns? Oh! She/her!” *beams* “What are yours?”
Coran 🦚 “This is your way of asking what is in my pants, hmm? Oh very well. He/Him. I also have a di-“
Dynaheir 🦢 “She/Her. What else did thou expect?”
Imoen ⚡️ “She/Her! What’s yours?”
Khalid 🗡 “He/Him. W-why do you ask? D-do you need to t-talk about it? Are you having an identity c-crisis that I can h-help you with?” Please he would be a “free parent hugs” person at Pride 😭
Kivan 🏹 “What do you mean ‘pronouns’? I don’t have any.” After explaining he would come to the conclusion of He/They.
Jaheira 🍃 “Nature has no use for such things, but if you insist: She/Her.” She would begrudgingly go with her husband to Pride, not really showing interests, but will provide hugs and would 100% throw hands with trans/homophobes.
Haer’dalis 😈 “Oh? I’ve never truly believed in the concept of restricting one’s gender. Call me anything, my raven. Though I would prefer Xe/Xem.” Unlabelled sexuality as well.
Mazzy ⚜️ ��Honestly, I don’t know why you brother with all that nonsense, but I suppose I would be a She/Her. But as far as I am concerned none if that matters, truly.”
Minsc 🐹 “Eh? What does that mean? Oh! Boo, tell Minsc? Ahh yes, you are so wise! Boo says I am He/Him, for I am a very manly man!”
Neera ✨ “Huh? She/They. Didn’t I tell you that? Geez you’re forgetful…”
Valygar 🍂 “He/Him. Would you also like to know what I had for breakfast this morning?” Poor bb has so many trust issues but would be respectful. Head canon that he’s also a closeted pan man.
Viconia 🌑 *scoffs and rolls her eyes* “Go/Away. I thought it obvious! I’ve not the patience for your gibberish nonsense.” 🥺 “Ohh very well. She/Her. Now leave me be!”
Xan 🌙 why/me *sighs* “He/They. But it doesn’t matter, I suspect I will be a mere ‘was/were’ rather soon…”
Yoshimo ⚔️ “Hah, He/Him. And your own?”
Bonus: Boo 🐹 Xe/Xem. “Squeak!”

So I know it's only supposed to have been a year between Baldur's Gate 1 and Baldur's Gate 2 but fuck that because I want my Bhaalspawn to be an actual adult instead of 19 fucking years old. So I'm electing instead to headcanon that it's been like at least five years and that she and Imoen have matured and Minsc and Boo, Dynaheir, Jaheira, and Khalid were basically family who watched them grow up. Also more time for them to become a badass group of adventurers and have the tales of their exploits spread to Athkatla and grow with the telling. Timeskip time, bitches!!
