Minsc - Tumblr Posts - Page 2
Currently trying to collect all the information about our companies’ life before the events of Baldur’s Gate 3. Mainly, about their family and age. Any suggestions/editing will be very much welcome.
Wyll Ravengard: is about 24, has left the city when he was 17, in origin introduction states that he’s been exiled for 7 years. Apparently his dad, Grand Duke Ulder Ravengard, raised him by himself, most likely Wyll’s mother passed away when he was young, as he mentions her during a romance scene in Act 3, but still calls himself “a single son to a single father”. Supposed to have 3 uncles. I’ve seen a note posted about Wyll diving to see a mermaid as kid, written by his dad, but I don’t where it is in the game. Florrick seen him grow up, had a crush on Stelmane as a kid.
Gale Dekarios: still not sure if there any information about how old he might be, but I estimated around mid-to-late 30s, though it doesn’t really sit well with him meeting Mystra as a kid (btw there’s an absolutely wonderful post on this topic by @lairofsentinel, check it out), still I’d like Gale to be on the older side, alternatively, he may be around 28-30. Lives separately from his parents, at least as kid had them both (mentioned when he first tells about his friend-tressym, Tara), thou in his origin (at least as much as heard and played myself but @vitanithepure confirmed it) only his mother gets mentions, the state of the other parent is unknown. Has a very tender relationship with her, but didn’t inform her about the orbe for her own safety, have no idea what’s her name, but Mrs Dekarios really wants him to find someone to settle down with. Also, Tara hates his beard.
Shadowheart (Jenevelle Hallowleaf): is about 40, comments that Viconia documented about 40 years worth of her life, in the same note she writes that Shadowheart was able to keep her heart true to her child self, and was hard learning Shar lessons. As I understood when she was kidnapped, she was about 10-13, kidnapping was directly by the Shar command. After her abduction made friends with tiefling named Nocturne (they might have be more than friends?), had a pet mouse for sometime called Nibbles. Her parents’ fate, Emmeline and Arnell Hallowleaf: is up to you decisions. Her mother mentions that they wanted Jen to have siblings.
Karlach Cliffgate: early 30s I think, the way she speaks about Gortash makes me thinks she was practically a teenager when she started working for him. Her parents, , she moved them from Outer City to a nicer place, in Upper City(?). From the looks of it, the died before Gortash doomed her. Her mom seems to be behind her love for Minsc, Jaheira etc. You can meet her friend near Baldur’s statue.
Lae’zel of K’liir: seems to be barely 20. Githianky reach adulthood in their late teen, and as Lae’zel was yet to present a mindlflaer’s head, I think she’s the youngest in the party.
Astarion Ancunin: according to his grave he only lived for 40 years before becoming spawn. The artbook states that he was a corrupted magistrate.
I knew Astarion and Minsc would have great banter
Idk if anyone's said this before but
I believe these two would get along incredibly well
baldurs gate 3 companion headcanons:
- gale talks in his sleep
- astarion once made karlach laugh so hard that she sprayed fire out of her nose
- shadowheart can and will hurt anyone on purpose, but if she accidentally hits someone/steps on their foot she secretly feels REALLY bad about it
- when karlach told gale she hadn’t read a book since primary school he nearly passed out
- wyll is an emotional drunk. he has cried about the stars being beautiful and about how proud he is of his companions
- lae’zel learned her favorite trick from some of the tiefling children: sticking her tongue out at people she hates
- when she thinks everyone is asleep, jaheira sings old lullabies. minsc and wyll are the only ones who have heard, but they don’t say anything because they don’t want her to stop
- the children love to put flowers in halsin’s hair. he loves it too, and will return the favor if they ask. he once did it to an unenthusiastic astarion, who ended up secretly liking it
- minsc takes the BEST care of his nails. boo’s too, obviously. he has let yenna paint them once or twice
- everyone has a lowkey crush on wyll
- when no one is looking, astarion likes to feed and pet scratch and the owlbear, making comments about how they’re the cutest ones there (besides him) and no one gets him like they do
- karlach asked wyll for dance lessons. she never quite gets the hang of it, but she has fun, and wyll is proud of her
- astarion and shadowheart pretend to hate each other, but gossip about everyone else when they’re not looking
- everyone actually really enjoys gale’s cooking but they’d rather die than admit that
- girls night: shadowheart and lae’zel are at each other’s throats with daggers. karlach is passed out on the floor. jaheira is drinking all the ale she can find. everything’s on fire. the next day they look back on this fondly
- boys night: halsin and gale are laying on the ground to look at the stars, stoned out of their minds. wyll and astarion are pouring their hearts out to each other. minsc and boo are making dirt castles. the next day they pretend none of it happened
It looks like a elf twink Minsc
Uhhhhh this is probably what obsession looks like maybe idk

Art for the Baldur' Gate 3 zine. I was glad to draw my favorite third act team led by Boo~ In my game this hamster flew around half the city.
So cute! ♡
Finally finished!! Just wanted to say a big thank you and happy 1 year to a game that honestly has sparked so much joy and creativity for me personally and I’m so glad to have found community here and in all the other places with folks who also love this series. Hope everyone is doing well and has a great day!
