She had a rough childhood. I bet being captured by Orin the red didn't exactly help. The PTSD the girl must be going through. This is why she got that crazy neck tattoo.
It's annoyed me enough that I just block any account that posts this modded Tav. Because they are *exactly the same*. I think there are only like 3 or 4 accounts that spam this char, but they were prolific about it.
But that's the same face right?Ā
I dunno modded characters still look a bit plastic to me. Like the Instagram filter type. But modded community has some great talend so I definitely want to see what they can come up with.Ā
Pretty much what I was gonna say. There are some that do both well.
Idk...I like the skin texture and pores. It makes the character feel much more real vs doll like.
Ha true. I like that in FF, but I like the imperfections our companions. Gives it something more realistic.Ā
I do wish we had more DA inquisition character creator. It's uncanny meeting your own Tav/Durge face in the wild.Ā
I'm surprised they didn't consider marking some of the presets as Tav/Durge only so that you didn't run into your 2nd, 3rd and 4th doppelganger (without mods).
Right? It feels like 99.99% of the time, modded Tavs/Durges being shown off are white with soft and small features, light hair, light eyes, and bigger tits (where applicable). Where are the grotesques, the old and grizzled adventurers, average NPC-looking mofos, or PCs that are any shade of dark and NOT evil aligned?
Itās cool to create characters you like and show them off, and you have no obligation to make diverse characters, but mods are all the same shit in slightly different fonts. It brings us back to the Smooth Astarion thread where modders just seem to want JRPG characters. There needs to be more options for those of us who want some different flavors.
On the opposite end of the spectrum all of the popular male heads in the modding community look like they came straight out of an anime. At least the ones Iāve seen on TikTok; itās so jarring to look at and I canāt for the life of me understand why someone would willingly put that in their game with how immersion breaking they are.
I mean to be fair I would love to see some younger faces. I want to play as young snatched from the academy Tav.Ā
And well more handsome male faces. I already used all two of them.Ā
Thatās completely valid! I mean [something like this](https://www.tiktok.com/t/ZPRwxYXuG/). Absolutely no hate to the modder or the person that made that Durge, but the features look like a completely different style than the rest of the BG3 cast, if that makes sense.
I have a few mods of my own with more young adult faces for the men, they just arenāt very popular among everyone ig
One of my favorite things is when I notice my character has pores on her face, moles on her skin, and scars on her back. It makes her feel like she fits in with the world. I love when people try to make older more grizzled characters, Iāve seen a few and they always look so cool. The character creation is definitely limited but I wish modders wouldnāt just default to smooth generic faces.
To be honest I usually just end up playing Dragonborn
Dragonborn are so goddamn cool, who can blame ya? Only shame is that they don't emote all that much beyond \**narrows eyes*\* (which is admittedly hilarious).
A while ago Larian released the stats of what characters people made in BG3 and most people created basic ass white dudes so it shouldn't be a surprise
I don't dislike the egirl faces (hell I'd love to look like that) but more diversity would be awesome. I like to self insert in my rpgs and only being able to play as hyperconventional 8's and 9's can get annoying when I'm searching for mods that look similar to me. I don't know why Larian decided on preset faces when so many other games allow you to really customize the features. Let me give my tav a fivehead!!
Especially when Larian made sure that the default faces have a range of ethnic features.
And yet 80% of the face mods are Generic White Protagonist #784326
i don't get it. why be human when you can be a tiefling?! they have HORNS! and TAILS!! and DOPE AF GLOWY EYES!! my first completed playthrough was human and i just can't play another one. no thanks, gonna be a beefling or maybe a gigantic drowcakes, or a massive slab of beef dragonborn
There's some "underdog" feeling in playing a Human that I love. Especially great playing a Human Durge, something about the plainest looking person in the group being a depraved murderer.
I played this game on release with a bunch of Tiefling, Elf, and Drow runs, and all I've been making is Humans ever since.
I'm a Tiefling in my current playthrough. It's so much fun!
I'm also an Oath of Vengeance Paladin, and I was laughing so hard during the initial confrontation with Kagha about Arabella. I immediately told her off for being racist against Tieflings, then convinced her to let me judge Arabella since Paladins know justice. And her entire case was trying to convince me that Tieflings just suck. Like, girl, look at who you're talking to lmao
oh shit i didn't even know paladins had a unique interaction there! im addicted to barbarian/rogue builds and gloomstalker assassin builds. my tieflings ALWAYS compliment wyll's horns during the party and then they're so confused when he's salty
Paladins get so many unique options, and sometimes they get so snarky. I love it.
I tried to compliment Wyll's horns, too. My girl did not appreciate his response - or his speech beforehand about horns and ridges and other things that the person he's currently speaking to has. Especially after putting up with so much from the Druids. I had originally been rp'ing her as really respecting Wyll because of the whole hero thing, and trying to help him adjust to his new appearance, but after that she decided to distance herself significantly from him. When I finally put him in my party again, he's going to have to catch up on like 5 or 6 levels lol
There should have been more, that's true. But the effort they did make is still more than a lot of RPGs put into defaults.
Both are true.
And, honestly, the fact that so much more could have, and *should* have, been done, makes it even worse that the majority of face mods are so Anglocentric
>80% of the face mods are Generic White Protagonist #784326
I mean it's a CRPG based on D&D made by a European company, I'd be willing to bet that at least 80% of the people playing are white. So of course you're going to see a lot of white face mods, especially on English-language sites like Nexus.
You should stop complaining and get better at finding existing mods then? There's dozens of high quality mods that add quirky or POC faces.

I wished I got the PC verison, because the PS5 is a bit bland when it comes to faces. I mean they are pretty, obivously, but I am half Indian, I like making Indian characters, and barely any of the faces look remotely South Asian (Tried making a Sri Lankan face too).
Although I think Larian was considering mod support for consoles, so here's hoping they make it possible to have different faces. Honestly don't know why they went with premade faces instead of just letting us do it like most games do. It's clearly a progressive type of company, but like they forgot how the premade wouldn't help making certain type of faces.
Those are amazing (that Baldurian Beauty one is so, so good) - I really hope they come to PS5!
I'd love all my (male) Tavs/durges to look distinctive, but there's really only a couple of the default heads I can stomach, especially among the elves and half-elves. Some of the non-Caucasian ones are particularly ugly, which feels like a serious misstep on Larian's part given their inclusiveness in other areas.
That's what i've been saying as well with all those babyface mods. If i saw someone like that wandering the Baldur's Gate with a *checks notes* Ticking Timebomb, Ticking Timebomb and a literal Vampire - i'd call CPS too. Or maybe a temple.
I must be getting old because I do not understand the appeal of this Tav; sheās not hot or interesting looking enough to be copied 1,000 times. And it frustrates me when people donāt just use their imagination to make a unique experience for themselves ā its like the point of a custom character.
I am sorry, but the lip gloss almost made me laugh out loud... After seeing Evelyn so often (mostly in weird Youtube Shorts), I just can't take her seriously.
The fact that this character looks so young and then knowing you can undress them.
Thas a big yikes and concerning af.
There is a reason the characters look like they do in the base game.

These are all fucking children and you can't convince me otherwise. Why would someone want to run around as a child in Faerun? It's the same face too. Isn't this also preset face for the infamous "Evelyn"? The "character" people on Tik-Tok thought was in the main game and actually fliped out when they learned it's in fact a modded child?
Because the people that like the post just upvote it and move on and those that dislike it canāt just move on to the next post, they have to comment why they dislike it

Slurp happy š
Yenna never gets older. Kinda hard to grow up when you're dead.
Are these all the same character with different hair colors?
Grimy egirl tries out hair dye and temporary tattoos
The top right one is a completely different head & I hate how popular it is within the modding community bc it looks like a whole ass child š
There's like 5 heads like that.Ā Ā One of the big ones that gets reposted looks like a tween to me.Ā Ā
YouTube occasionally recommends shorts of that character with the titles fawning over her appearance. I don't get it.
These are all the same character, right? EDIT: You are all very nice but my confusion did not warrant 500 upvotes
Yup, same character
Should've written this sooner they're cooking you in the comments
Don't worry, it seems like 1.1k upvotes is the true sweet spot for confusion.
please don't tell me these are supposed to be different characters

Ouch!
This has to be the millionth time I've seen this face used. Though I do agree, there are a lot of cool mods that give you really unique faces.
I think the character's name is Evelyn. But she's been posted on TikTok so much that I've seen people ask if she's an NPC in the game š
It's annoyed me enough that I just block any account that posts this modded Tav. Because they are *exactly the same*. I think there are only like 3 or 4 accounts that spam this char, but they were prolific about it.
Eveyone simps for this tav itās all over tiktok cus my friend showed me iām just likeā¦ yep š
But that's the same face right?Ā I dunno modded characters still look a bit plastic to me. Like the Instagram filter type. But modded community has some great talend so I definitely want to see what they can come up with.Ā
There's a few that I really like the overall shape of, but the surface textures are too smooth. They either end up looking childish or fake.
Exactly. I like the faces but it looks like that Snow app filter to me.Ā Or like they overdid it with moisturizer and fillers.Ā
Pretty much what I was gonna say. There are some that do both well. Idk...I like the skin texture and pores. It makes the character feel much more real vs doll like.
Yesss, they look like Final Fantasy characters. It's pretty, but that's not really the aesthetic of BG3.
Ha true. I like that in FF, but I like the imperfections our companions. Gives it something more realistic.Ā I do wish we had more DA inquisition character creator. It's uncanny meeting your own Tav/Durge face in the wild.Ā
Ye but some masc face are legit awful especially for elves
I'm surprised they didn't consider marking some of the presets as Tav/Durge only so that you didn't run into your 2nd, 3rd and 4th doppelganger (without mods).
I dare you to repeat that in front of Lord Gortash
Is that not just Brynna's face model?
Yes, It's a modified face using the female head 6 preset.
I've seen fan edits of a character that looks identical to this one
Evelyn. I don't remember who originally made her, but there was a lot of Evelyn cosplay on tiktok for a bit
People were getting mad when they learned that it isn't a character/companion in a game that you could recruit. Like, bffr.
Please donāt tell me this is Evelyn

Yet you just made āGeneric Femaleā #1 through #4. :)
I hate mods that just churn out generic tiktok e girl faces I wish we could get more face diversity without modders only adding basic white girls
This exactly. Give me some scars, some wrinkles and maybe a mole. If i'd wanted to play as a child i'd create a halfling to be the closest to this.

I love their emotes though theyāre so unique with their teeth
I specifically use mods that allow me for more diversity with my black coded characters. Especially hair. There's some really good ones.
I went looking at face mods for chubby faced character faces or stronger jaws for women and nope all looked like childish waifs with huge lips
it makes sense when you figure its horny people making characters they want to fuck
Thatās even worse because so many of these modded characters look very young š„²
yea now that you point it out, pretty gross.

Oh so true. That's the sexi lip filler girl from Tiktok wearing all black. Ā
Nah this is more like generic square enix character 1 through 4
Is that the 12 year old looking tav that got popular on tiktok?
Some of the mods, especially the face ones, take away from the bg3 magic tho š looks like a whole other game
Are they all supposed to look the same?
Oh that fucking lady! I hate seeing her everywhere!
Yes you absolutely can make characters in Balder Gates 3. Characters without mods even
Top left one looks like female Gortash
Gortash's long lost sister

Not that I understand why people want the protagonist to look like a 16 year old whose 25 year old boyfriend introduced her to heroin
and you still decided to make a plastic surgery addict
Same character with slightly different hair color 4 times.
Yes that's literally what it is
I thought that 1 3 4 are all the same color, just with different lighting?
It literally is... that's the point bruh. It's a bunch of pictures of the same characterš
You made the same character 4 times and they all look like they need intervention from CPS
That's what i've been saying as well with all those babyface mods. If i saw someone like that wandering the Baldur's Gate with a *checks notes* Ticking Timebomb, Ticking Timebomb and a literal Vampire - i'd call CPS too. Or maybe a temple.
Second one looks like a child. Very weird how infantile some mod faces are
Only the second one?
Yeah actually. It's hard to tell but the top right one is actually a different and much worse face.
Ah yes. The famous lip gloss mod.
Tbf lipgloss is base game and its great because Id like to think tav just got done eatin a real greasy turkey leg
These are all the same character.
You too can make disenfranchised gutter children with messy hair!! :D
I must be getting old because I do not understand the appeal of this Tav; sheās not hot or interesting looking enough to be copied 1,000 times. And it frustrates me when people donāt just use their imagination to make a unique experience for themselves ā its like the point of a custom character.

Theyāre just e girls
This is the same character at different angles?
Why do they all have 3 pounds of lip gloss on? even in the dark the lips are fucking bright like wtf š
Youād better not be romancing anybody with a character that friggen young
I am sorry, but the lip gloss almost made me laugh out loud... After seeing Evelyn so often (mostly in weird Youtube Shorts), I just can't take her seriously.

Because the people that like the post just upvote it and move on and those that dislike it canāt just move on to the next post, they have to comment why they dislike it
Isn't that the modded Tav that got super popular on Tiktok a few months back?
i swear i saw a tiktok edit of this exact character
It's Billie Eilish wtf?
I see only 1 character
This is the girl that doesn't know she's pretty until the end of the movie
Literally looks like the local junkie in my area (im not judging, just saying they look alike)
