Summary
Thae’ryn doesn’t remember who he was before the Nautiloid crash. But his body does. His hands do. And the voice in his head certainly hasn’t forgotten.
He’s violent, volatile, stitched together by instinct and restraint. Fighting to be good. Fighting not to enjoy the killing. And failing more often than he’ll admit.
Enter Astarion smiling, sharp-eyed, with a mouth made for mockery and a bite to match. They orbit each other like blades in flight.
Somehow, it works.Sort of.
But the more Thae’ryn uncovers about who he used to be and what he’s capable of, the harder it becomes to hold back the thing inside him. The part that wants.
And if there’s one person who might see the monster and stay anyway… it’s the only man who’s just as broken.
He’s got Thae’ryn’s back.
And a dagger to it.

Summary
Saphir Stellamaris wouldn't call his a lot a charmed life exactly. Sure you get to wear fancy silks and jewels and rub elbows with the Gate's Great and the Good. You also have to serve them in whatever way they request. Thankfully they'll pay out the nose for a taste of something exotic and his particular skillset makes it so he doesn't have to endure the worst of it. Still with his coffers now overflowing Saphir wonders how to start extracting himself from this lifestyle and how exactly someone of his background is going to make his plans for the future work. After all a foulblood no matter their breeding is still a foulblood at the end of the day. And even the most progressive cities would most likely balk at his ideas. Although...maybe...maybe this Gortash fellow could be a way of getting his hoof in the door. After all if someone of common blood can rise through the ranks at the rate he has surely he knows something of breaking through glass ceilings.
The man in fact did not have anything helpful to share.
Kidnapped and literally tossed into a nautiloid for processing Saphir a tiefling courtesan of some renown is having a terrible no good very bad day.

Summary
I wanted it to be published at Research Gate but they declined, so I made an account on AO3. Just kidding, it’s a fantasy story.
A female human wizard whose magic has grown rusty after years of ordinary life, is the only one unlucky to be infected with an alien larva set to overwrite her mind and body. Seeking a cure, alone except for one friend, she leans on her analytical mind and logic, but her every well-considered decision ends in a new disaster.
[Fandom blind friendly but contains spoilers the way tea contains liquid.]
If not for the inserted headcanons and alternative companions, it might count as a novelization.
Finished and now being reviewed and then posted roughly a chapter per week. -

Summary

Summary
"The seats of the heavens shall shudder and break,
The thrones of the hells shall crack and shake.
Through orb’s shadow and crown’s flame, balance is spun—
The Chosen work unseen, and the new age is begun.So sayeth the wise Alaundo."

Before Moonshadow, God of the Eclipse, there was Vesper; A half-drow "child" of Bhaal destined to end divinity with the Chosen of Bane at his side.
That was, until his beloved half-sister (thankfully) divested him of his Chosen mantle (rather violently) and set in motion the events that would ultimately lead Vesper to Gale Dekarios, a charming wizard who claimed his heart (almost instantly).
In this collection of one-shots, follow Ves as he, Gale and their companions set out to find a cure for their parasites as well as uncovering the hidden depths of the Cult of the Absolute that holds the key to Ves' shadowed past.
WARNING: This is a Resist!Durge fic, but even so there will be lots of violence, blood, gore and bouts of madness.

Summary
She'd spent her life in song. She'd never really known there was more than music. As the worm in her brain opens her mind, the people in her company open her heart. And the past she'd never known unites her with a future she couldn't imagine. Something had always beckoned her beyond the Sword Coast and now all that may hold her to it is the people she'll leave behind.
A wizard with a secret. An elf born in lies. Both vampires in their way, sucking pieces of her away until she's empty inside.
Somewhere between magic and darkness, the blood beats true. She'll have to decide what powers her heart. And who is worthy of holding it.
(romance - seat of the pants style)

Summary
“Ellia, it is a genuine pleasure.” He held his right hand out once more. She stared at the bandages, now slightly out of place by her pulling, and the slivers of exposed skin beneath: dark, purpling grey with a cracked-stone texture. Flashes of injuries and maladies skittered across her mind—nothing matched what she saw in him.
“I don’t want to hurt you,” she said with an indicating nod.
His smile turned wry. “Believe me, the damage there has already been done. But perhaps you’re right, and this will be better.” He swapped one hand for the other. A moment’s hesitation, then she accepted. His touch was warm. His skin more worn, more lived-in, than what she’d expected from a study-bound wizard. She wondered, dimly, what he felt in her hand. If the illusion would hold true under such direct connection, and what would happen if he realized who she truly was. But then his hand was gone and her wondering went with it. It didn’t matter. They wouldn’t be together long.
A novelization of BG3, reframed as a romance between Gale and a resistant Durge with alternating POVs. Elements of concept Gale. More Alfira. More Tara. More reactivity to Durge actions. Puns.

Summary
Durge has absolutely no memory, a violent bloodlust that can overwhelm him at any given moment and a nasty backseat passenger lodged in his skull. Jean Grey didn't think she'd be crawling out of her own grave, resurrected yet again - but here she is. Two people who wouldn't normally have met, thrust together when a nautiloid crosses the planes.
Taking on the role as leader to a ragtag group of adventurers, Durge tries his best to overcome the dark urge that threatens to consume him while facing an identity crisis and fighting to remember a past lost to him. Meanwhile, Jean didn't sign up for dimension hopping to a strange world without modern comforts, joining a dangerous quest to stop a powerful psionic cult or being a target for manipulations.
Working together, they must navigate their mission and new personal relationships without succumbing to corrupting influences - or they might be doomed to fail against the Dead Three. But, the wheel of fate need not turn ever to the dark, sometimes you just need the right people by your side.

Summary
While on her way back home to Baldur's Gate, Aya's life is turned upside down and inside out.
Abducted by a mindflayer nautiloid, Aya soon finds herself on an adventure with an odd group who all have the same desperate goal— to be rid of the parasite in their brains that could turn them into an illithid without warning.
Of course, what she was not expecting was to start developing feelings for the handsome wizard who seems to be harbouring secrets.
A novelisation of Baldur's Gate III with heavy focus on the Fem!Tav/Gale romance.
