Alone, they may resist. But together, they can overcome.
For Early Access Miscellaneous Content including the Backstory timeline I developed, the Unofficial EA D&D Tabletop Campaign, and the initial Book 1: The Afflicted Tabletop Story Playthrough, please use the following link: Early Access Miscellaneous Content
Book 1: The Afflicted (MAJOR SPOILERS!!! It is highly recommended you play the video game first):
Special thanks to northpaw_s for their post translating what Astarion's scars potentially say. I totally used that during one of the scenes. Awesome stuff!!! Apparently, who knew, Latin is Infernal.
Special thanks to Sozz on Larian's Forums. Several edits were made as a result on 11/13/2021. Please either reread Part 9 for more details, or you can find notes in the Backstory timeline that also explains what the changes were. Thank you.
Book 2: Dark Moon Rising (MAJOR SPOILERS for the Underdark and Grymforge. It is highly recommended you play the video game first):
Book 3: Legacy of Murder (MAJOR SPOILERS!!! It is highly recommended you play the video game first. Also, SPOILERS for the Demon Hunters story as it is the prequel to the Afflicted story. Three of the characters from Demon Hunters are the main characters of this story. They are actually the ones I planned to use to play the video game with once the full release was out. The two stories are closely tied together, but they are also separate, stand-alone adventures. You don't need to read Demon Hunters to read Legacy of Murder, but it does help to read both to get some of the backstory:
Book 4: Ascension of the Mastermind (MAJOR SPOILERS!!! It is highly recommended you play the video game first. This story is based on choices and decisions I made while playing the game as well as on what I thought the characters would do if they weren't restricted by the video game. Also, SPOILERS for the Demon Hunters story as it is the prequel to the Afflicted story. Three of the characters from Demon Hunters - Aelun, Vlynrifane, and Fiovay - are among the main characters of this story. There are other characters from Baldur's Gate 3 that are in Demon Hunters, so the two stories are closely tied together. As before, I will be releasing portions of this story as I complete them, so watch for updates regularly:
For the prequel to this story, check out Demon Hunters: Demon Hunters
Totally unrelated, but just for fun, I have now also completed my Star Wars Alternate Universe Fanfic too. Check it out on this blog: Star Wars Alternate Universe
