#Molvayas Softly poached, but make sure all the water is properly strained before plating. Serve with salmon, dill, lemon & pepper.
#Verdigris needs a filling omelette with bacon, leeks and potatoes mixed in. Preferably x4 the portion you'd usually offer. He's, er... got a high metabolism.

A screenshot from Baldur's Gate 3 of a 'drow' draconic sorcerer version of the Durge character. His colour palette is very desaturated. He is muscular with a serious stare.
I'm really curious to see what impressions people have of #Molvayas so far.
#TavQOTD
I tried to pick something less obvious for #Molvayas, but with those lyrics it really couldn't be anything else: youtu.be/E9GuZK_KFV0
#TavQOTD
BG3 causes #Molvayas to become very cynical & bitter towards those who haven't yet earned his trust.
It's something he'll need to get over if he plans to live forever.
#TavQOTD
#Verdigris was highly suspicious of #Molvayas - the Bhaalspawn who distracted & tempted Gortash to sin.
He should've felt more relief after Bane made him his chosen but the anxiety still lingered in his gut. He knew this couldn't end well.

#TavQOTD
#Molvayas: Gale, but because he fears the orb over anything sentimental.
That idiot Orin has no idea what she's messing with, or maybe she does? (idk if the game has her acknowledge it.)
#NSFW
#Molvayas 's Gortash gives a sympathetic sigh, feeling very tired, very empty & aching quite a bit. 🥲
He has solutions to work around it ofc, but he's not likely to share them. 😒
#TavQOTD #NSFW
Just think of how Gortash must've felt discovering #Molvayas rejected Bhaal. He can now receive a blowjob without fearing a penectomy.
+
#TavQOTD
It is a difficult question for #Molvayas to answer.
He knows he is beautiful. He was designed to be so by Bhaal to act as a lure.
How can he be proud of something he put no effort into obtaining? Something which only furthers that disconnect between him & others?
+
#TavQOTD
#Molvayas is so tired... (Assuming the same week as the finale of the game.)
Gortash is still out of commission, but Molvayas only faked the netherbrain's death so he still has the Steel Watch at his command.
He also has a dragon, #Verdigris.
It's tiresome, but the city will not fall.
#TavQOTD
#Molvayas is the 'adultier adult' ...except when he's not.
For that next level #Verdigris is usually pulled in.
#TavQOTD
#Molvayas has a few, but Utopia by Goldfrapp really captures that calm yet intense obsession.
"My dog needs new ears,
Make his eyes see forever,
Make him live like me,
Again and again"
"I'm wired to the world,
That's how I know everything,
I'm super brain,
That's how they made me"
+
#TavQOTD
#Molvayas feared The Urge for snatching away his autonomy & making him act like a crazed, feral beast.
He was a slave, regardless of how much he resisted or tried to play along on his own terms. This was someone else's will imposed upon him.
It terrified him, & he despised it.
+
#TavQOTD
#Molvayas Gortash said to "follow the bodies" & these are bodies.
He'll investigate jic this is a Bhaalist murder & he can find clues to the temple.
He doesn't consider taking the kid in for a moment. One of the men already present seems invested, which makes him a far better choice.
+
#TavQOTD
#Molvayas is in an awkward space with this.
He isn't incapable of experiencing empathy, nor accepting the fact his actions are hypocritical. He *can* be highly considerate (just ask Gortash).
But it depends on who you are & how you approach him.
+
#TavQOTD
It's just #Molvayas 's default state of being. 😌 No, really, he can't help it. He was engineered to look like this.
(I can't believe I forgot to give him his earrings in *all* of these screenshots... he should also have a fake opal eye, body scales & deeper scars + vivisection scar, alas.)
#TavQOTD
(Post-game) #Molvayas kneeling on the floor of the House of Hope as tears, blood, snot & spit soak the front of his robes, & broken fingers weakly claw at his back with the fear he too will abandon him after this pathetic display.
He cannot break that promise. He will not-
#TavQOTD
#Molvayas: "'Redeemed' is such an ugly word, & the people who wronged me are incapable of considering themselves in need of it. Besides, they're all dead."
+
#TavQOTD #MoldyGort #Molvayas
For once, I had a screenshot all ready. 🥺
#TavQOTD
cw: character death
#Molvayas sped things up.
Does he feel guilt? No. She made her choice.
Regret? Perhaps... but it's complicated. He did understand her anger, for what it's worth.
But the damage her ignorance could've caused him was unforgivable.
#TavQOTD
#Molvayas is content sitting at a table in the back with Gortash & #Verdigris watching everyone else make fools of themselves (okay, some of them are pleasant enough).
+
#TavQOTD
#Molvayas (post-tadpole)
🟥 Willful ignorance (particularly regarding religion & alignment)
🟩 Questioning mind
#Verdigris
🟥 Calling him a lizard or anything reptilian just because he 'looks like one', *especially* if you've already been corrected once.
🟩 Sincerity
#TavQOTD
Time to resurrect this ol' screenshot of #Molvayas (pretend his back is covered in scales).
#TavQOTD
#Molvayas will accept nothing less than Ao's throne, but he can't do the job of an overgod alone. He needs Gortash to achieve the balance needed to successfully manage a cosmos.
Molvayas rules from the shadows. Gortash insists upon worshippers, but respects his partner's discretion.
+
#TavQOTD #MolfyGort
#Molvayas likes 'optimistic' smells.
He enjoys the floral essence of spring & the sweetness of Enver's scent.
Anything positive which serves as a momentary distraction from the horrors.
+
#TavQOTD
#Molvayas is being his usual difficult self & none of these appeal to him. Would anyone like to offer suggestions? (& probably be argued with. 😅)
Excuses below...
+
#TavQOTD
If anything happened to distort or destroy Gortash's soul it would cause #Molvayas to lose it - particularly if it was due to some goody two shoes 'hero'.
After destroying them in kind, he continues with the plan to confront Ao.
This delusional cosmos will soon know his anguish.
The most important thing to remember about #Molvayas & #Verdigris is that they both represent the undesirable other who is shunned from mainstream society.
Someone who genuinely understands & accepts them is everything.
#TavQOTD
#Molvayas really is quite attached to Stillmaker. He would prefer it without the Bhaalist iconography, but he's certain Enver will provide.
#Verdigris scoffs at the idea of a perfect weapon. It depends entirely on context.
BUT...
