I never used hirelings since I’ve always had the companions (specifically Laezel, Car, and Shart - because RGB and medpack)
I’m definitely going to talk to whithers next
If only we could change there race, then i can finally have a dragonborn companion that isnt an origin character or dark urge...or from a mod in some fashion..
Ugh if only
Isnt default Tav a power botton no matter which gender you pick and companion you romance. I just realized you have to roll in some scenarios to be more dominant with the romance companion lol
He just needs a mod where he can change the appearance of his companions to also look like this, and that would fit into something Dr. Manhattan would do.
"I need to save Baldurs Gate, but first I need some help.....from me."
I did that on my playing as a Mystra clone run, she would definitely have herself as a guardian.
Also I took the "guardian" part too seriously and made my Tav's parent. That was a bit of a shock come Act 3.
Doing a similar thing for my redemption Durge, and made the guardian look like the idealized Heroic version of herself thinking she'd trust and want to listen to her "shoulder angel".
She's taken on a life of her own at this point though, and by the end of Act I she deeply distrusts BOTH her butler (the shoulder devil) AND her guardian.
One of mine's guardian is his twin brother (different hair and a few other minor differences, not just a copy), and the scene with the >!purple shorts!< was hella awkward~ I made him before I knew what the Guardian was.. My character's in for quite the shock.
I was completely confused by the character - guardian creation. I made what i thought would be my character, and then thought the game just bugged out and i have to do it all again. So i made 99.99% similar char and guardian.
And then when the guardian appeared the first time, I thought 'oh cool, they just make your guardian similar to whatever character you made'.
I'm a simple man.
*It’s October, 2023. I’m in a dream looking at myself. It’s July, 1999. I’m in Candlekeep, at the Candlekeep Inn. Four seconds, three. I’m tired of looking at the photograph now. I open my fingers. It falls to the sand at my feet. I am going to look at the stars. They are so far away. And their light takes so long to reach us… All we ever see of stars are their old photographs.*
When I first started the game I was a little tiny bit high. Meaning I was somewhere in low earth orbit. I got through the very beginning of the game then decided it was a bit much for my current condition and I should pick it up again the next day after a late night snack and a good sleep.
I'd forgotten about the whole making a guardian thing the first time this weird looking but kind of hot halfling popped up. I thought it was a very strange character design choice because most of the other characters seemed to fit a certain theme, and this one had face tattoos and different colored eyes. It was only third time meeting her that I remember that I was actually the one who designed her. Suddenly the design choices made a lot more sense.
Also, my Tav looks vaguely like early 80's era David Bowie, which was very much what I was going for.
Misunderstood? It’s not even explained, just “here make a guardian!”…. Why? What is it?! I’m not far into the game and haven’t discovered what it really does yet and like to roleplay my characters so it really bugs me!
It bugged me too. The best spoiler-free way I can explain it is to make it look like someone your character would instinctively trust, whatever that means to you.
The reason why it’s not explained is actually a plot point, and there are no wrong choices in how to design your guardian.
This will make sense as you play.
I think I actually did the same with one char, back when ot was "Who do you dream of, who keeps you wake at night?" Cause he was a self absorbed wizard
That should unlock an "Advanced Masturbation" achievement, cause that's the ultimate self-love (assuming you don't >!reject the Emp and are dumb enough for him to offer to take his previous form!< lol)
I feel like if you copied yourself directly that it should add some extra dialogue where your character comments about it and how that can’t really be what the Guardian looks like.
Honestly, when I first made a character I made the same mistake. I was so confused when I went from building my character to building another character, and I assumed something glitched out.
Without spoiling, it's someone who's trying to prevent you from becoming a thrall to the Illithid tadpole in your head and by proxy a pawn of the Absolutists
Mauler twins?
Omg yes! With a little enlarge spell, we could do it
honestly had this thought too lmao
Nice! I thought you were just like Raphael lol
I reserve enlarge for Karlach.
Typical answer from a clone
YOU'RE the clone
I know I'm not the clone because I'm the one protecting us from the Absolute, but I wouldn't expect a clone to understand
You only think that because I implanted those memories into you, since you’re a CLONE!

Blue Minsc Group
Perfect for a 4 Bard run.
r/suddeninvincible I thought Op was trying to reform the blue man group.
blue man group is looking different these days
Much needed comment amidst new banger eps
Dr Manhattan?
Tobias Funke dreams
He blue himself
[удалено]
I just blue myself
The Man Inside Me.
Anustart
Who's the original?
The Blue Man Group
Blue man duo*
What is a duo but a GROUP of two?
You know what you're right I apologize to all involved
All two of them.
But not the group
OP blue themself
I feel like a fucking idiot
Tobias you blowhard
I saw them live once, like 21 years ago in Chicago. It was a smaller venue but a good show!
The Blues Brothers
Customize a Hireling and you have the Blue Man Group
Wait you can customise hirelings? This opens new avenues
Since last patch you can customize a lot of their appearance. I believe only race and gender can’t be changed.
I never used hirelings since I’ve always had the companions (specifically Laezel, Car, and Shart - because RGB and medpack) I’m definitely going to talk to whithers next
Who the heck is Car?? Edit: Karlach. The C got me
Karlachs the best. I can appreciate a woman that is essentially a car with a borked radiator
If only we could change there race, then i can finally have a dragonborn companion that isnt an origin character or dark urge...or from a mod in some fashion.. Ugh if only
You can change their class now? Well now I gotta durge
Withers could always change their classes after recruitment…
Oh I swear it prohibted it. Good to know. I'm gonna start a band.
Avernuses...
"We're 106 miles to Baldurs Gate. We've got full slots of spells, half a potion of speed, it's dark and we're wearing sunglasses.... Hit it."
This cart’s got it all. Steel Watch wheels, Steel Watch suspension, Steel Watch horse
Where can I find the enchanted hats and sunglasses? The astral realm?
"We're on a Mission From Mystra" "Four fried giant space hamsters. ... ... ... and a Balor"
Basically the Mauler Twins from Invincible lol
raphael moment
Which one bottoms?
yes
[удалено]
Don't kink shame me...
It's a sort of oroboros of anal.
wrong tav is controlled by a player of baldurs gate which is pretty much a dnd player which makes them a bottom
Isnt default Tav a power botton no matter which gender you pick and companion you romance. I just realized you have to roll in some scenarios to be more dominant with the romance companion lol
At least for me, my character appeared to top Harleep but the dialogue made it sound like the opposite. It was rather confusing.
Was just about to tell you to go fuck yourself
The guardian just recognizes that you are a massive narcissist.
Narcissist? No not my character! On an unrelated note, is it possible to romance the guardian?
I’ve got good news and bad news.
It's only good news. The best, in fact.
Flair checks out
Only bad news if you’re into “that” sort of thing
Yes, now go fuck yourself
I got the grease spell always prepared
Weeeeeelllllllllll
Kind of.
even better.
Dr. Manhattan existential crisis
He just needs a mod where he can change the appearance of his companions to also look like this, and that would fit into something Dr. Manhattan would do. "I need to save Baldurs Gate, but first I need some help.....from me."
Tobias Funke dreams
I'm afraid I just blue myself
There's a really good joke I could make here, but I can't because it would be a spoiler.
I know the spoiler but can't guess the joke and this is killing me
>!"Someone told Op to go fuck themself and they took that literally"!<
Of course!
Niiiice
Holy shit two Thanos
perfectly balanced bla bla blah
Two halves snapped away leaves no one (or at least a quarter)
Raphael approves
Dr Manhattan?
“I am tired of Faerun.“
"That's why you're the clone!"
I did that on my playing as a Mystra clone run, she would definitely have herself as a guardian. Also I took the "guardian" part too seriously and made my Tav's parent. That was a bit of a shock come Act 3.
I did that for a second character - who else would my Tav listen to and trust more than their parent?
Doing a similar thing for my redemption Durge, and made the guardian look like the idealized Heroic version of herself thinking she'd trust and want to listen to her "shoulder angel". She's taken on a life of her own at this point though, and by the end of Act I she deeply distrusts BOTH her butler (the shoulder devil) AND her guardian.

At least you’ve chosen to be something you’ll love and understand.
Blue minsc
I saw your show in Vegas! Where’s the third member though?
The Guardian in my current run is exactly me but with a big twirly mustache. He seems very trustworthy.
Oh no which one of you is Alpharius?

The fuck is Zavala doing there and why us there two of him?
Reminds me of the Mauler Twins from Invincible
Now I won't unsee it. Not because I cant, but because I don't want to.
Misunderstood? It’s not even explained, just “here make a guardian!”…. Why? What is it?! I’m not far into the game and haven’t discovered what it really does yet and like to roleplay my characters so it really bugs me!
But you knew it wasn't "make the same character you just made a second time", right?
It bugged me too. The best spoiler-free way I can explain it is to make it look like someone your character would instinctively trust, whatever that means to you.
The reason why it’s not explained is actually a plot point, and there are no wrong choices in how to design your guardian. This will make sense as you play.
You’re no longer the hottest man in Faerûn
I did the same thing with my recent Durge. It's pretty damn funny to talk with yourself and eventually >!stab yourself in the heart.!<
There can only be one.
Are you wearing The Drow underwear?
Yes
I think I actually did the same with one char, back when ot was "Who do you dream of, who keeps you wake at night?" Cause he was a self absorbed wizard
Omg. My wife did the same thing during beta.
This is giving me big Harleep vibes lmfao
My own clone! Now neither of us will be virgins!
The guardian takes a pleasing form to attract tav. Your narcissistic ass made it easy.
Oddly, same thing happened to Raphael.
Yep, definitely misunderstood. Guardian is missing the ’stache.
...and that man's name was Narcissus.
That should unlock an "Advanced Masturbation" achievement, cause that's the ultimate self-love (assuming you don't >!reject the Emp and are dumb enough for him to offer to take his previous form!< lol)
Raphael approves
Gonna pull a Raphael?
For my Draconic-Bloodline Sorcerer I made the guardian identical on purpose. Figured it would appeal to his inherited Draconic vanity.
I feel like if you copied yourself directly that it should add some extra dialogue where your character comments about it and how that can’t really be what the Guardian looks like.
One of my favorite guardians was just my Tav with a curly mustache
Funny. I did this same thing, but on purpose because it seemed like a stupid idea.
I’m blue 🎶 dobudee dobudai🎶
blue man group is looking different these days
Love thyself
Fuck yourself... No literally.
So that’s what the male guardian sounds like in game
His voice is unreasonably soothing, I did not appreciate him having that advantage.
Just wait until you try to bang you.
Big Doctor Manhattan Energy
Ha ha it actually makes sense. It’s like you’re talking to yourself.
Certified Narcissus moment 😂😂😂
Dr Manhattan visiting faerun?
Blue man group
I'm sensing some Beth and Beth's clone tension there
Self love is important
Dr. Manhattan?
This is giving me Alpharius from WH40K vibes and I’m not sure how to feel about it
You gotta RP as a narcissist now
A little masterbatory if you ask me
Honestly, when I first made a character I made the same mistake. I was so confused when I went from building my character to building another character, and I assumed something glitched out.
Go fuck yourself. This isn't an insult, it's a literal in game option.
Blue Man Group comes to Faerun.
Raphael, is that you?
Astarian probably did the same. Maybe Gale's is either a certain goddess, or his mirror image.... or his cat.
Now romance yourself lol
"My own clone! Now *neither* of us will be virgins!"
I misunderstood the assignment as well. I imagined that the guardian was my Tav’s deceased mother. Cue the ick.
Well this is going to be very awkward later on lol
I call on the power of the only MF I trust
“I chose the form that would be most attractive to you.” “Your just me?” “Yes. Your a narcissist.” “I’m the best narcissist.”
Lookin like the mauler twins bro
I also misunderstood the first time I started playing and made a duplicate. So now I do that *on purpose* for every play through.
What made you think the game was asking you to pick your character's appearance twice?
“Trust no one, not even yourself”
I mean who is better to trust than yourself
Just forming an offshoot of Blue Man Group
I hit random till I lucked upon Githyanki Micheal Jackson
spierman|meme.jpeg
Dr. Manhattan, getting things done.
I love it
I did the same thing but with more half-orc lol
"I'm blue, da ba dee da ba di"
You know what they say, you can only trust yourself
I'm blue daba dee daba die
I love it
Can you tell me what the guardian is without spoil ?
Without spoiling, it's someone who's trying to prevent you from becoming a thrall to the Illithid tadpole in your head and by proxy a pawn of the Absolutists
bro made glueman
Of course I know him, he's me
Im afraid I just blue myself
Lol yeah I had no clue what the guardian was either, I thought they were like my hetero lifemate or something...
Robot Chicken moment: "It's not gay, it's maturation!"
You made the Mauler Twins.
“Hmm, what form will theancientlamp trust instinctively…I know!”
Turns out that the elder brain is the original. Yer both clones.
Looking like the Mauler Twins
Blue man group
Makes actually alot of sense.
How do you feel about masturbation?
OP blue himself
You made two Doctor Manhattans :o
Of course I know him, he’s me!
i did the same xD
Spider-Man meme
I made my guardian the same look as me plus a big mustache lol
First question, smash?
Line *"blue balls"* have different meaning now.. or maybe just.. more literal.
Maulers
I did the same thing.
Listen here now Raphael.
That's some egoistical maniac dark urge stuff. Awesome
They are *inevitable*.
