#tavqotd #VanyaAncunín🫀🔱 In a brighter timeline where Astarion never ascended and he and Vanya were married and divorced at least three times, Vanya was briefly married to Minsc. It was between the second and third marriage to Astarion so everyone knew it was doomed

#tavqotd #CiceroAncunín🏹🪉 Cicero didn’t have mentors growing up. Even his own father actively rooted against him. The closest he had was Halsin, who he only knew for a few years, but whose support was immeasurable. He was the one that convinced Cicero to join the Harpers and hunt vampires

What’s the Red Room, you ask? What was once the Boudoir is the only part of the palace that hasn’t been redone because Astarion refuses to enter. Vanya goes there when she feels the Urge coming on so she doesn’t attack Astarion or one of her children again

Zizi | Bloodtrident Nation 🩸🔱 @ziziphoenix.bsky.social · 29/08/2026

#tavqotd #VanyaAncunín🔱🫀 It depends. Sometimes she’ll sneak out of the palace to find someone who’s clearly intoxicated and drain them dry. Sometimes it’s so bad she locks herself in the Red Room. Sometimes Astarion will send his least favorite spawn to “check on her.” They never come back out

Two versions of Azelma, a heavily-tattooed high elf/drow/bhaalspawn/Dhampir. In the first, she has the vanilla elf face preset 3. She wears a black leather vest and black leather armor.

Fun fact about Vic: Following Volo’s bestselling book about the Hero of Baldur’s Gate (Vanya), she wrote a different book bc she didn’t like how she was portrayed. For one, Vanya was only designated leader in the beginning bc she’s a Paladin. She didn’t like being leader and asked Vic to take over

What the "no uncomfortable media ever" folks don't seem to want to acknowledge is that for some of us, stories depicting violence and suffering are about feeling seen as fellow survivors, and (in most stories) also seeing that these things can be overcome, even if they can't be eradicated.

Tw: substance abuse #ocqotd #tavqotd #keepingupwiththeancuníns No one in this family be trusted around substances but these four are the biggest offenders. Okay, Astarion is way worse than all of them, but this ain’t about him ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ Check alt text for more details

Vanya, a very angry, heavily-tattooed Drow/bhaaspawn/vampire in a low-cut white dress.

She’s a vampire so can’t do drugs the way God intended. Instead, she drinks the blood of people on…basically anything. Or just drunk people. Idk man you try being married to THAT when you’re stone-cold sober

The only drug she can do the old-fashioned way is powdered bloodroot, which only works on vampires and dhampir

Vanya’s daughter Azelma, who is also heavily-tattooed and wears a black and red leather vest. She’s got her hands on her hips and a skeptical expression on her face

Azelma has taken downers and psychoactive substances since she was a teen bc they kept the Urge at bay

Vanya’s youngest son Vesuvio, who wears a black and blue leather doublet and a black fur cloak. He appears to be pontificating about something

Vesuvio will do basically anything and everything in front of him. He mostly used to party out of necessity when he was home for the holidays to avoid sleeping in the palace. And, like Azelma, he also uses a lot of shit to self-medicate the Urge

Ophelia, Vanya’s youngest daughter, wearing a pink brocade dress and holding a drink while smiling at nothing in particular

Ophelia got hooked on uppers at Blackstaff, particularly “study drugs” bc who needs sleep when you can create a spell that makes people’s junk rot and fall off or finally decipher the Necromancy of Thay
