Baldur's Gate 3: Selune The Moon Goddess

[@anonymous99632]

All your predictions came true. :3

[@jimrusel6629]

I like the departure from the typical Sun/Moon dichotomy. Her abandoned temple is still very beautiful, I hope to see more of her in the full release.

[@apres-lachute8718]

I am definitely going to do a Cleric of Selune run just to annoy Shadowheart but I am also interested in how they will interact in the full game.

[@cernunnos_lives]

Holy crap that's pretty clever

[@MizuMing]

Go deeper. Romance Shadowheart as a Selune Cleric! 😂

[@seibervideo]

Same! I’m super tempted to go that route even though my “canon” character is a rogue.

[@jerome6191]

@@MizuMing hahahaha I did that.

[@matthewmaguire7328]

You could make it worse for her by playing a githyanki seluenite.

[@Voidwatcher]

We named our oldest dog (a Nortern Inuit) Selûne after this goddess. Just got this video recommended to me, most likely due to it being BG3 related. I enjoyed your video!

[@Theodisc]

In Greek, one of our names for the moon is η Σελήνη / i Selíni - the Selene (depending on usage we commonly use the definite article before people's names in Greek). Only Selene is the personification of the moon itself/herself despite Artemis and Hecate also being moon goddesses in our pantheonic canon. 🌕🧿

[@actualteddybear891]

If I werent sold on a war cleric of Eillastree I'd do a Selune Cleric instead. I enjoy looking at the moon and it is good to be kind and respect others.

[@lostzephyr2191]

Selune just doesn't want the light to sting her eyes, very relatable. Good stuff, as is typically the case, keep it coming.

[@Suzanne_sf]

Hi there! Also, by the windmill in the blighted village. Shadowheart has a weird experience with a broken statue there. I think she must have been one of the children who went missing.

[@kila3477]

lol you were right

[@Suzanne_sf]

@@kila3477 Thank you for letting me know that something I'm putting in my fanfic is actually happening in the game! I appreciate it! I wonder if I guessed the right person's name: Rochelle Kirk is the only name I remember from the list, so that's what I'm naming Shadowheart in my fanfic. :)

[@Enzevil]

Congrats on 1k subs! Keep up the grind.

[@spellandshield]

Hartstikke bedankt meester!

[@Enzevil]

@@spellandshield Graag gedaan!

[@dt5690]

WolfHeart the Ranger, Mortismal the Wizard, Enzevil the Cleric, Spell&Shield the Paladin, the perfect BG3 4-man party.

[@Enzevil]

@@dt5690 Could I be the Warlock please? :P There's evil in my name!

[@Darkfie1d]

I'm so happy I stumbled upon you channel and this video. Looks like I have a lot of cool things to dig into!

[@spellandshield]

Thank you! I hope you enjoy it!

[@kellysamuel3383]

Yo I noticed the channel’s blowing up a bit congratulations you deserve it

[@spellandshield]

Thank you!

[@hugewatermelon]

I have a feeling she won't participate in story directly, but that we will see more of her shrines and possibly worshipers. With so many gods blatantly encroaching on the human realm, having one that works behind the scenes could be refreshing.

[@faselfasel2864]

I dont think Shar will be featured prominently either. I think their meddling is just a peripheral "hey we exist and we are prominent gods and kinda permanently opposed" kinda thing. One might be able to get a small edge on the other, but i think thats it.

[@hugewatermelon]

@@faselfasel2864 yeah that's a good point. I'm not sure how prominent Finding the Nightsong will be, but it definitely won't be at the core of the story.

[@246Rennie]

I don't think they will allow this but imagine how at odds you would be whit Shadowheart if you were allowed to play as a Oath of the Silverstar Paladin in BG3.

[@Kizzy-qb9si]

She’s not the only moon witch. Eilestree and ms moon bow

[@eatsleepplayrepeat]

It's unclear if Shar is actually evil in BG3. Throughout the game Shar is explained to be a goddess of darkness, loss, and secrets. Doesn't sound too bad so far. The only way I found out how evil she was was through videos. There are some books in the game on Shar but none of them felt super evil to me.

[@sharpasacueball]

It sounds like you didn't pay attention at all in bg3. She's probably worse than the dead 3 combined in bg3

[@eatsleepplayrepeat]

@@sharpasacueball It's only clear that Shar is evil during Act 2 but when Shadowheart tells the player that she worships Shar it isn't clear and all the books about Shar can easily be interpreted that she is a misunderstood goddess in the context of Shadowheart's dialog

[@redhakiim789]

Shar is neutral evil. You can check Forgotten Realms of her lore.

[@eatsleepplayrepeat]

@@redhakiim789 My point is that the game should tell you info instead of having to search the internet

[@redhakiim789]

​@@eatsleepplayrepeat That's literally her lore in case you miss that. She is similar to Lord Voldemort in terms of goal and achievement.

[@ichigo7223]

really appreciate all this content (I know I'm late to the video) but this really helps better appreciate shadowhearts backstory. Also I wonder why you think she's a former Selune worshiper? wild speculation or did I miss a foreshadow scene in the early access?

[@queendiscord5973]

*Selune:* ❤️✨🌈Love & Light, my children🌈✨❤️ *Me, a Shar follower:* lOvE anD LiGhT my ChiLDrEn 🤪 *Ao, the Overlord:* Wait until they hear about the Dark Moon Prophesy, it’s gonna be so funny

[@j.d.4697]

Why is darkness always portrayed as evil in fiction? 😐

[@Hekk.]

In Shar's case "darkness" is more like void, and absence of light, than the darkness itself

[@mrself5824]

Because it’s ingrained in instinct, darkness is scary, in light there is safety
