Fandoms: Baldur’s Gate (Dark Urge run)
Relationships: Astarion/OC (f/m)
(This could change to poly.)
Summary:
An adventurer named Lyra wakes up from unconsciousness on a mind flayer dimension-crossing ship infected with a parasitic tadpole that threatens to transform her into a mind flayer. Alongside several others who have met the same fate, they are forced to go on a quest to find a remedy to prevent ceremorphosis. However, Lyra found herself without her memories and resisting unwanted urges/thoughts, unlike her traveling companions. Missing memories and a lot of questions, with experiences in pain and pleasure.
However, as this story goes on...things might get interesting.

Chapter 6 Summary:
Explosions echo through the ruins as Gale, Shadowheart, and Astarion discover Lyra standing alone amid defeated enemies, battered but unyielding. She faces a final opponent—a powerful, fire-wielding barbarian—and deliberately discards her weapons, choosing close combat. The two clash in a brutal, physical fight, trading heavy blows as fire and force push Lyra to her limits. Despite injuries and exhaustion, she adapts, regains control, and ultimately overpowers him.
In a decisive and unexpected move, Lyra ends the fight with a lethal kiss, releasing a silver vapor that kills him instantly. Though victorious, the toll of battle overwhelms her. Pain crashes over her body, and she collapses as her companions rush to her aid. Beneath the action, her growing connection to violence—and the unsettling satisfaction it brings—becomes more apparent, highlighting her internal struggle against the darker instincts within her.
