A mod spotlight for the BG3 Yearbook zine, presenting writing mod Feliks. He has this to say about himself: I'm a lazy writer who studies literature and masters the knowledge I've got from class by reading BG3 fanfics (or making my own!). My Durge, Séraphine, is an unreliable narrator and I don't trust him either, even though I made him. I am a chronic yapper and I love hearing about everyone else's characters!
A mod spotlight for the BG3 Yearbook zine. Cassi, the mod for virtual photography, has this to say about herself: Virtual Photographer who's happily stuck in BG3. I like to explore emotions, character psyche and storytelling through my photos. BG3, Astarion and my tav Innirith reignited my passion for creative endavours and I'll always be grateful for that.
A mod spotlight for the BG3 Yearbook mod, showcasing writing mod Baker. The mod's short self-description is: "I found my love of writing once again when I began playing BG3. Ever since then, I've been writing and writing, sometimes until the early morning. It's been such a joy to be a part of the fandom and make new friends along the way. Unfortunately, my OCs have suffered at my hands and there's no end in sight for those precious babies."
