I feel like this was only briefly touched by a few people a couple months ago but it lives rent free in my head so now I need to spill.

Baldur's gate companions but make them self aware.

Dnd is already a game on crack and bg3 is probably no exception.

In game there already some lines that are vaguely 4th wall breaking, the first one is obviously with Karlach who we so far know has a scene where she asks questions about her, us, and the game. And sometimes you might be able to catch some characters finish talking only to then look over towards the camera, *cough, cough, Astarion, Raphael, cough*.

So many options to choose as to HOW they got the self-awareness is probably a goldmine for writers

The tadpoles is the first that comes to mind. Mindflayers travel between planes of reality as is, so I don't doubt that the little hitchhiker in their heads could tell if some plane shifting is going on with Tav.

My personal favorite, Save Scuming. In a game with literally a hundred hours or more of content were you are actively encouraged to replay it different ways. I would not be shocked that over the course of the hundreds of saves you reloaded because the dice didn't roll in your favor or new campaigns you started that eventually all the pieces start clicking into place for some of the companions.

Honestly there could be more but I'm drawing blanks of ideas but I might be tempted to write about the self-aware from constantly saving because that seems like fun.

Don't mind me, I'ma just leave this here.
