#karlach being happy for astarion when he marries the king...

[thedomesticanthropologist]

My opinions based on nothing but my opinions

Halsin: switch but everyone treats him as a service top. He never mentions it but is pleasantly surprised when he has an adventurous lover brave enough to bring up more diverse sexual options

Astarion: Switch Brat. Doesn't succumb to brat taming, needs to be very carefully navigated. Traumatized, requires a safe word but never uses it, needs a partner that can not only handle him switching moods on a dime but can handle being lashed out at if you deny him what he says he wants even when you know he's not coping.

Shadowheart: BDSM positive, pleasure oriented, poly positive, surprisingly emotionally stable and very good with ropes and accessories. Loves to explore toys, fantasy scenarios, roleplaying, you name it. Prefers to top, will roll over but likes the upper hand

Karlach: happy to be there. Just keep up with her and she's thrilled. Multiple orgasms. Likes to take an active roll, always moving, always exploring, give and take is equal. Gets over enthusiastic. Watch out for rug burn

Gale: service switch. Aims to please. If given free reign, always over delivers and makes very overly complicated romantic gestures and over extends himself to try to impress you. He is a natural bottom/submissive but is so eager to please that he will do anything to meet what he thinks your expectations are. Please peg this man if you don't have the equipment to top him. King of pre-sexual care, aftercare, marries you immediately after sex.

Laezel: Dominance based. Sees sex the same way she sees combat. Needs someone to show her the softer side of things but be strong enough to hold your own with her as well. BDSM NEGATIVE, but combat positive- likes pain play but only through games- someone has to win the encounter, someone has to lose. Learns how to moderate over time.

Wyll: Top. If he bottoms, he tries to top from the bottom... But not in a dominant way, he just naturally is like that. Playful. Not against toys, not into them specifically. You're enough as you are and anything extra seems... Extra, to him. He wants the full romance novel treatment, he wants to GIVE you the full romance novel treatment. Makes missionary position with the lights off A DELIGHT. Surprises you constantly and on purpose. Holds back until you're not sure there's more, then delivers. Lives to make you giggle during. Very thorough
