After creating your playable character inBaldur’s Gate 3, you’ll also have to create a Guardian for yourself. As their title might suggest, the Guardian is there to protect you, though you won’t meet them straight away.

A Guardian too hot to handle

With great freedom in their hands, some players have endeavoured to make their Guardians unreasonably attractive. Reddit user /u/RPG-Fluff provides an example of ahorned Guardian with purple hair and dazzling eyes. She’s eye candy, as long as you’re into red skin and pointy ears.

Pretty in pink

Your Guardian doesn’t need to be tough and terrifying. As Twitter user@RaximMuadDibillustrates, some well-used shades of pink and purple on a Tiefling can result inan absolutely stunning Guardian. To get the look right, make use of eye makeup and freckles.

Weird and wonderful

You can always go with a regular human or even the typical elf for your Guardian. However, with as much freedom as you have, why not be as weird as possible? That’s the route Twitter user@ASharkSoWinsomewent, andthe results are pretty interesting. With green skin to match her green eyes, she won’t be forgotten easily.

The Ron Swanson lookalike

WithBaldur’s Gate 3, you can fulfil your dream of hanging out with your favorite celeb if you design your Guardian correctly. After some random customization, Reddit user /u/Drevstarn noticed they didn’t need to do much tohave their Guardian look like Ron Swanson. Do you see the resemblance?

The wise old man

Your Guardian should be someone you can trust and depend on. This Guardian’s snowy hair lets you know that he has acquired wisdom through years of experience, and he’s ready to pass it on to you. With the wise old man watching over you, there’s nothing to fear.

Since launch,Baldur’s Gate 3has been a runaway hit,receiving great critical receptionto match its commercial success. PlayStation 5 players will soon be able to join in on the fun when the game launches on the console on September 6.
