Summary
Tav broke their agreement by handing the Crown of Karsus to Mystra instead of Raphael. Not only that, but she also robbed his house and killed his incubus. Raphael is patient and he is determined to get his revenge. Tav gets chained to the House of Hope with constructs similar to those of Prince Orpheus'. When her friends eventually come to save her and brings him back his Orphic Hammer, Raphael will kill each and every one of them in front of her before claiming what is rightfully his: her soul...
…Tav isn't too bothered. She will figure something out eventually. Until then she just has to find a way to live peacefully with a devil.

Summary
Astarion watched her from the shadows, his keen gaze catching the way her soft body moved as she worked, the little roll of her stomach when she leaned forward. She was so alive—warm, kind, and heartbreakingly unaware of her effect on others. Gale was seated nearby, seemingly focused on a book, but Astarion wasn’t fooled. The wizard’s eyes flicked to Tav often, lingering when she laughed softly at her own thoughts or tucked a stray lock of hair behind her ear as she worked.
It was intolerable, really. The way Gale looked at her—his Tav—as if she were some celestial object of study. And yet, Astarion couldn’t summon the venom he wanted to. After all, Gale wasn’t wrong. Tav was remarkable, and she wasn't his.. not yet.

Summary
The clearing buzzed with activity, laughter, clanging tools, a dozen voices overlapping in requests and half-formed questions. Leto stood in the center of it all, the eye of the storm, her jaw tight and her eyes darting between tasks. One hand gripped her ledger, the other kept brushing hair out of her face in restless, agitated motions. She hadn’t sat down all morning, hadn’t eaten, hadn’t even touched the tea Meg had pushed into her hands an hour ago.
Her answers were shorter now. Crisper. She was still smiling, still sweet, but it was a blade-thin thing, too bright and too tight.
Halsin had been watching from a distance, not hovering, but always near enough to step in if she stumbled. And she was starting to stumble. He stepped closer with a steady calm, voice low and teasing in the way that usually made her roll her eyes and smile.Series

Summary
What makes a person?
Is it a name? Something attached to you since birth? Something a god or nature provided?
If that is the case, the bard is unsure if she can be called a person. Names are like a job title to her, like gauze, like a hat: something fictional, disposable, and a prop.
Jane Doe, Zoe De Schanel, Jessica Day, Summer Finn, and many more have come and gone for The Bard.
She honestly cannot even be sure if she can refer to herself as “The Bard”. Does she have the abilities of one? Yes, but rarely are her original works received well and even more rarely is she a capable spellcaster. All she really has is a tongue she dipped in silver and an uncanny ability to pump out paintings at lightning speed.She is incredibly ill equiped for adventure but keeps fucking getting tossed into it. Again and again and again.
Tav in this is a girl failure who tries to be a girlboss. College of Eloquence Bard. She sucks but we love her.Platonic relationship focus
Tav will be "Tav"
More focus on character interactions and moments
Tav’s backstory does involve actual important people in the Forgotten Realms to maximize angst -

Summary
'You're worse than him. You're worse than he ever was.' Astarion hissed, voice dripping with malice, laced so thick with distrust and betrayal and hurt that Willow didn't know if she was ever going to be able to look him in the eye again. His bottom lip curled into a snarl, looking in that moment every bit the monster he feared, 'Because at least he never gave me the illusion of choice only to steal it away. At least he never pretended to care.'
'I was trying to be considerate! I was telling the truth, I swear, I just wanted you to know you didn’t have to do anything you didn’t want to--'
'Liar.'

It was supposed to be simple.
Astarion had been on edge ever since they arrived in the city. So, naturally, sending Cazador on an impromptu trip to the Hells was priority number one.
Right up until Willow took one look at Szarr Palace and the universe suddenly decided to remind her why her parents had shipped her off to Waterdeep all those years ago.
(Or; Tav knew Astarion before. Neither take this realisation well.)

Break the Chain by Bloody_Songbird (Its_Knighttime)

Summary
Tem was a monster hunter, plain and simple. It made no matter if it was animal or humanoid, hideous or beautiful, speaking or dumb; if it was monstrous, it was to be destroyed without hesitation. She’d seen the horrors and destruction that these creatures could impart first-hand, and had nearly faced death by a monstrosity that should’ve never gotten the power he did.
So, when one ill-fated hunt in the city of Baldur’s Gate forced Tem to work with a vampire spawn to save Faerun, she was enraged at the joke the gods were surely playing on her. It didn’t help that Astarion happened to click with her better than anyone ever had, and it didn’t matter. He was still a monster, she couldn’t possibly begin to feel – oh hells, was that affection? No, Tem couldn’t possibly fall in love with him. Astarion was a vampire. He was a monster.
But, then again, so was she.
A mild retelling of game events where a monster and monster hunter go from enemies to friends to lovers all while deciding the fate of the world as they know it. -

Summary
“What are you?”
“Oh darling, don’t insult yourself. I know you are better than that.” – a wicked grin tugs at his blood coated lips.
“You can’t be. They are tales to scare children not to wander alone at night.” – my voice comes out ragged.
“Yet here you are, wandering alone.” – he answers in that low, sultry sweet voice. His lips curve upwards, revealing his teeth. His sharp teeth.
Coldness washes over me.
Vampire.
-----------------------------Astarion sees her as means to an end. Drinking her blood was supposed to be an easy fix for his hunger. But as old memories resurface and secrets unravel, his hunger shifts from blood onto something bigger. Something that thaws his cold skin and picks at his crumbling facade.
This work takes place at the same time as the story in bladur's gate 3. It's somewhat canon compliant as I changed a few lore bits for storytelling purposes.

Summary
Halsin had never imagined someone could be that beautiful, even if covered in sweat and dirty, panting after the exhausting fight she had to endure for protecting the portal he opened for saving Thaniel. Leto’s hair was tied in a high ponytail, something he had seen her do rarely, only in moments she needed to be focused, like when they were planning the assault on Moonrise Tower with Jaheira and her Harpers. On that occasion he noticed a tiny birthmark on the base of her neck that was usually hidden under that fierce mane of flaming hair. He had to gather all his forces not to lean closer and kiss it. He could not fool himself any more: he was attracted to that human girl that entered his life as a chaotic tornado of colors and laughs, the young druid that was wiser than him yet had the same enthusiasm of a child when seeing the first snow falling.

Summary
“I didn’t save you because I expected something in return,” you start carefully. You want him to hear you clearly. “I didn’t do it out of obligation or for a reward. I did it because I care about you. So deeply that the thought of not having you around made me sick.”
He’s positively perplexed but then the beginnings of a sneer creep onto his face.
“Well, that’s just unheard of, darling. Pfft. Nobody does things simply out of the goodness of their heart.”
OR
Your feelings for a certain pointy-eared companion serve as the basis for his disappearance. His absence from your group leaves you tormented and forces you to closely consider how gravely you need him.

“Let’s just say,” he started carefully, “that the ritual goes wrong. Cazador still dies, but for some reason you aren’t able to go through with it. But you're still free from your master and can do whatever you want. What would you do?”
