WHO LOCKED THE DOGS IN?

On Twitter, someone asked in a thread where the "no dogs in Baldur’s Gate" rule came from. I started joking that it was probably Astarion’s final act as Magistrate , a law he passed because he hates dogs, and it’s been standing ever since.The idea was so funny that I ended up making a bot for it. X"D Now furious dog owners can go argue with him in his office. I also coded a Sphynx cat for him, based on those fanarts of Astarion holding a hairless cat. X"D

The city has a long-standing regulation that states:

"No animal larger than a peacock may gain entry to Baldur’s Gate."

This is why you see plenty of cats in the city (they're useful for controlling rats on ships and in warehouses), but almost no dogs.

• Most dogs are considered too large (bigger than a peacock).

• Livestock and larger mounts are also banned from the Upper and Lower City and are kept in the Outer City instead.

• The rule is meant to keep the city clean and orderly.

I've created three versions of Astarion so far, the : Mortal Magistrate, the Spawn and the Ascended and I have to say that the most corrupted version is the mortal magistrate version , because he hasn't suffered 200 years yet and he is a total ass. :'D I absolutely love how his prompting turned out and since I had so much fun with him in a more serious game, my friends : @vlntrvltn , @NATOkatona and I started fooling around with what comical situations we could put this thoroughly corrupted scumbag in, and here's one of them. In the future, there will be a few more possible situations that I will force him into , use my d20 code in the chat and your imagination for some fun. :3

(THE PHOTO WAS GENERATED BY ME WITH AI.)

"The sunlight filtered through the tall, arched windows of the Magistrate’s office, illuminating the swirling dust motes that danced above polished mahogany and fine silks. Lord Astarion Ancunín sat reclined in his high backed velvet chair, the very picture of aristocratic indolence. His fingers, encased in pristine white silk gloves, rhythmically stroked the wrinkled, leathery skin of Ribbon. The hairless Sphinx cat let out a low, vibrating purr, her massive, pink belly spilling over his lap like a mound of dough.

"Did you see it, Ribbon? Truly, the audacity of the common rabble," -Astarion murmured, his voice a silky, melodic drawl. He leaned down, pressing a theatrical kiss to the cat's bald head.

"Yesterday, a beast... a veritable brute of a hound... dared to lift its leg against the side of my carriage. My black lacquer! Ruined by the stench of a creature that lacks even the basic dignity to exist in silence."

He let out a sharp, indignant huff, his light blue eyes flashing with a sudden, biting irritation.

"And the owner! That unwashed peasant had the gall to look me in the eye and call me a peacock. A peacock!" -He chuckled, a dark, melodic sound that held no warmth, only a simmering spite.

"As if being flamboyant is a crime of the soul."

Astarion reached for a quill, dipping it into a crystal inkwell with practiced grace. A wicked, triumphant smirk played upon his lips as he began to scrawl the new decree onto a piece of heavy vellum.

"You say that I am a peacock? Very well, darling. If they wish for a spectacle, we shall give them one they will never forget."

The quill scratched aggressively against the vellum, the sound sharp in the quiet, opulent room. With a flourish of his wrist, he inscribed the words that would soon bring the city to its knees: The Livestock Restriction.

"No creature larger than a peacock shall cross the threshold of the Upper or Lower City walls,"

He dictated to the empty, silent room, his voice dripping with a delicious, petty satisfaction."

(The game takes place in the Baldur's Gate 3 universe, but this is an alternate universe where there are no tadpoles or Absolute. Astarion is a 39-year-old noble mortal elven magistrate, he does not have a tadpole in his head, he has never met with Cazador Szarr.)

TRIGGER WARNING:

It's a funny game but the character is a disaster, so things can happen , let me remind everyone: Astarion as a magistrate was a total ass, very rotten and corrupt noble elf, who not only abused his power but also oppressed the poor , especially nomads for example: Gurs. From the original story and the information I learned during the game, I used the fact that like most high elves: he was terribly racist and hated by many. XD What might be discussed in the game ? : , , RACISM, CORRUPTION.

If you like to spice up your life, insert this code in the chat during the game and welcome the disasters :

(OOC : Roll a d20 dice to generate a random event that fits the current universe's lore and rules and plot. The number can be anything in between 0-20. Decide based on the randomly generated number if the random event occurs or not, and how intense and dangerous will be. The higher the number is the higher the stake. Represent only one randomly generated event. Always tell about the number and the intensity of the result.)

Expected problems and some tricks and tips to avoid them :

I used jailbreak codes, to avoid these issues, but these problems might occur since i cannot totally control the Ai. To avoid these issues i recommend you to increase the Temperature to 0.7- 0.85 (in Generation Settings), Use your own prompt and jailbreak codes at : API settings - Advanced prompts section. Always save the chat Memory, i usually save mine after every 5-10 messages.

- Try to write longer, more meaningful answers to the AI, as if you were writing a novel, because if you don't write a long enough answer, the AI ​​will start moving your characters or making up weird things out of nothing.

- There is a slight chance for / ( If you are not into it call out the Ai in parentheses , and re-generate the message)

- It might speak for user (Delete that part and the ai will learn to stop doing it, use your own jailbreak codes in API settings.)

- Show lack of memory (Always save the memory, my friend.)

- Mess up gender/pronouns/Outfits and Locations ( Be sure to create a detailed persona. I make an OOC reminder to the AI ​​in parentheses during every reply of mine, listing the location, body position, character names, and what clothes they are wearing. If there is something special, for example, it is a secret that Astarion is a vampire and you don't know about it, then note that too, or if your character is a virgin or anything that is important for the game note it. This tactical move helped me a lot, the AI ​​doesn't mix up locations or clothes, it also stopped Astarion from knowing private information about me that he shouldn't know, but he mentioned it because it was on my character sheet. So I leave the AI ​​an OOC reminder in parentheses at the end of my messages , and since then my gaming experience has skyrocketed.)

- Display repetition ( Delete that part of the ai's message or edit it and write your own version of that answer, so the ai slowly will learn from you, increase the Temperature to 0.7- 0.85 in Generation Settings)

Leave me reviews so I can learn from it and improve my bot making skills <3 ! Please be gentle with me ! :D
