>>6315148>>6315733>>6315753>>6315766Thanks for the kind words, everyone. Happy you enjoyed it. I'm travelling now, so will probably only post the epilogue late next week, so look out for that.
>>6315959> How much worse would it have been if Salazar had been able to create a perfect body for himself in Avalon vs stealing Arthur's?Not too much worse in the sense that the DCs wouldn't have changed much, but you'd have a normal Arty instead of the battle fiend she is, And no bodily Helga either, so you'd probably roll with a smaller modifier. Can't give you exact numbers, though, as I don't plan that far ahead. Most importantly, given that Arty wouldn't be healed and still in her shortened lifespan, she'd be far less likely to be convinced to actually fight for her future, since "she was going to die soon anyway", which could lead to greater angst and possibly require some rolls to stop her from sacrificing herself for the Cradle.
> I really have no clue how we would have turned Potter to our side,I don't see how you could have convinced him to help at that moment. Potter was too far gone (and, infact, I did several callbacks to things Voldemort does in book 7, including the description of how he falls to the floor when he dies) and had gone fully Dark.
If you mean convincing him earlier, I think it would only have been possible to get him to this point as an ally if Lily was still alive. Once she died, and once you all told him what had happened to her, he was gone.
>Also, saying it inspired you makes me want to reinstall BG3 and give it a more honest shot when I have more time and feel 100%.It is a genuinely a great game (though my only criticism is that every single recruitable npc is Too Important for no story reason, but I'll give it a pass) with a fantastic soundtrack. And I love Karlach with a passion.

In unrelated news, I went to somewhere plot-relevant today and spent far too much money in HP crap! If I had more time here, I was honestly considering doing a short trip to Abberton to visit the church Elliot's parents hid out in, for no reason other than it amusing me, but it would take too long.
Also, Abberton specifically being the place for Camelot was absolutely not planned as a thing. I just looked at "possible places for camelot", saw Colchester was one of them, then started looking through cities and villages south of it, until I saw that one of them was ruled by someone called Peverel. Pure coincidence that it existed or happened to be in the right place.
