Leave Him As A Pile Of Viscera And Carrion On The Floor :)

leave him as a pile of viscera and carrion on the floor :)

Barcus: …And that’s what happened

Tav: Well, I never met him

Tav: But me and my friends would've killed Wulbren Bongle with hammers I can tell you that much

in case anyone was wondering, this is the line that made me fall in love 💜

love of my life barcus wroot

IVE BEEN SAYING THIS MAN

i just think barcus is ideal for an npc romance. you meet him multiple times over the course of your journey and you save him constantly. his dry demeanor melts away to something more genuine each time. you help him see that wulbren isnt who he thought he was. for gods sake you can even have him at your camp. hes SO devoted that he risks his life multiple times for a man who doesnt even care about him, can u imagine what he'd do for someone who loves him back?? like if you can fuck mizora and haarlep i think you should let barcus suck your titty while standing up. let the short king know some happiness man!!!!!!

i could deliver an entire lecture on this lmao

Barcus should be a full companion.

Baldur's Gate 3 is really cool and i like it but why do we get like 5 recruitable variations of elf and not ONE short race? Dwarves gnomes and halflings are right there guys! Barcus could be the perfect answer for a buncha reasons.

First, you can recruit him early on. He's right there in the blighted village closer than Karlach is, so it isn't like you'll get him super late. Even have a funny opportunity to totally blow it by hitting the wrong lever (like how you can fuck up saving Gale). As for his class he's admittedly not good at fighting but he makes his own explosives so maybe he could be a good skill monkey type character OR be an artificer if they add that class.

Second, he's got hits of story in all three acts that would work perfect with him there. He's arguably got more potential story beats than Karlach. Act 1 save him and rescue the others from Grymforge. Act 2 find Wulbren in Moonrise, meet the Ironhands at Last Light. Act 3 decide how to deal with the Ironhands and the Gondians. Plenty of good and bad choices.

Third, even though he's clearly got Bongle bussy on his mind, Wulbren does not feel the same. Imagine a romance where you help Barcus out and then at the end he's like why was i chasing this asshole around when YOU were right here the whole time! It sound so dumb but it'd be cute as fuck.

Thank you for coming to my ted talk.
