kromem, 10 months ago One of the keys to writing a compelling arc is to start somewhere you can juxtapose against with where you end up. Both of your characterizations of the characters may not remain the same as you play though. Of course, the cool thing about what Larian did is that whether they do or don’t depends a lot on player interactions and choice. You may have a very shallow Lae’zel by the end of her arc in your game depending on both certain choices and the roll of the dice.
