Summary
Wyll Ravenguard is familiar with monsters. Monsters give him purpose: something to fight, a reason to keep moving forward, to avoid looking over his shoulder at the city and the home that he will never be welcome in again.
Then, he leaves Avernus with a mindflayer’s tadpole writhing through his brain. Then, he learns that the fiend he’d sworn to kill is an innocent tiefling. Then, his own personal devil tears the flesh from his bones and warps his body permanently, beyond his recognition.
Then, he wakes up in the calm of an otherwise quiet night to a vampire spawn’s teeth in his neck.
(Or: Wyll Ravenguard reshapes his definition of monsters. And maybe falls in love.)

Summary
Wyll never expected to find his way back to Baldur's Gate.
He doesn't intend to stay— his mother is dying, his father is still disapproving, and he has his own life now as the Blade of Frontiers.
But his return finds him almost immediately embroiled in the affairs of the influential and mysterious Szarr family.
☽☀︎☾
Astarion languishes in Baldur's Gate, trapped in the Upper City under the harrowing spectre of Cazador Szarr.
He's sick of vapid conversations with patriars who only see him as inroads to the Szarr family fortune.
And then Wyll Ravengard arrives in Baldur's Gate, and Astarion hatches a plan.

Wystarion AU with courtship, drama, and a bit of mystery.
Excellent smut with poor and fully fleshed out characters.

Summary
Forsaken by gods and men, forgotten by friends and family, six secretive strangers are forced together as victims of the mindflayers. Death sentences tick in their heads, as they hunt fruitlessly to cure or control it. They have been left with only each other — gods help them.
No Tav to play psychologist. The den of trauma victims have to fix themselves or make each other worse. Without Tav, Wyll is first among equals in this six-man Origin party retelling.

Bookmarker's Notes
Retelling of BG3 Wystarion centric, but deeply delves into character studies of all of the tadpoled crew.
Incredible read
