Thank you for your overwhelming support!
I just wanna thank EVERYONE for being very kind and supportive!
When I started modding bg3 I thought maybe nobody played the game anymore but wanted to mod anyway and I didn't expect such a vibrant community!
I never would have imagined people would like my mods so much and I thank you all SO MUCH.
I now feel kinda bad for having a meltdown and deleting my mods after I got so many both private and public messages about what is going on and why are my mods suddenly gone.
People who didn't do anything wrong are suffering the consequences.
So I promise they will be back and I might be back as well someday! Now I just wanna take a break, reflect on my behaviour and rediscover the joy of modding. Just to keep this patreon alive I might share some stuff I am working on for myself if anyone's interested. I've let my emotions get in the way too much and I could've handled some stuff better, I admit it. We are all just people after all. I wanted to write a different post after I heard people were still trashing me but it would be a pissing contest with infinite piss so to speak. I've had enough of this during high school. :)
Also special thank you for everyone who supported me financially both here and on ko-fi I am forever grateful!
And most importantly, thank to everyone who treats me as a human being <3
BTW I left my mods up on mod.io because I didn't wanna ruin console players' saves again!

Very understandable! I'm glad you're not leaving. 💖
W Elledwynnn ! Take your time, see you soon and stay hydrated
How you reacted it is completely understandable! I'm not a mod creator, and as such haven't had to suffer the stress of having content stolen from me, but I have been bullied and gaslit by people before IRL. It's hard, and it hurts. You're a wonderful mod author, and I'm glad to hear that your content will return, as well as you perhaps. The people who're keeping up the pissing contest need to really get a LIFE, like, an actual life. I've met people like them, I work retail, and those sorts of people are the same kind who throw a fit over a coupon being expired or not working. They have so little worthwhile going on in their own sad, little lives that they make problems for others. They get me riled up from time-to-time, and I don't even have any personal stakes in any of the situations, like you do! Take your time, you do you, and I hope you find joy in modding again.
hi, i'm usually just a lurker on here but i commented on your earlier post saying i'd feel bad about not being able to share your mods when i use them in photosets, and that i'm sad to see you go. i would of course be VERY happy if you returned and made your mods available again! but i don't blame you for having an emotional reaction and feeling like you wanted to quit and not have your work out there anymore after what happened. i'm not a modder but i can imagine i might have done the same thing in your situation. whatever you decide to do next, just take care of yourself first!!
Very understandable, just glad to have you back soon. I appreciate you and your work a lot <3
Please don't beat yourself up about how you reacted, it's normal to have emotions about things and people you care about. Whenever you are ready to come back there will be so many people (including me) waiting for you! <3
You handled a really shitty situation with grace and maturity. People are allowed to be upset when upsetting things are happening to them and the people they care about.🫂 I commend you for how you've handled things and appreciate you even more so! Take all the time you need to recoup from the madness, relax knowing the truth is out there, and you have a clear conscious to enjoy whatever you set your heart out to do. I look forward to your updates and will continue to support you however you would like.💜
Take as long as you need to heal and rediscover your passion. It is so easy for the cruelest voices to be the loudest ones in the room, but you truly have a lot of fans who appreciate all your hard work and support you, no matter what you decide to do. Thank you so much, and enjoy your time away.
Sometimes taking a break and clearing your thoughts can be helpful. I did that last year, when I stepped away from a situation, that overwhelmed me. I think most people understand your situation. Take care and I hope, you will find your joy and inner calm again soon. Online spaces can be extremley overwhelming, especially with big crowds like the BG3 community.

You will find nothing but understanding and empathy from me - and most of everyone else<33 i can't even begin to imagine how heartbreaking and frustrating it must be to go through the things you have gone through - and other modders go through. It only makes sense to break down in frustration and heartbreak. The harassment of mod authors is entirely out of hand and out of pocket and is grotesque to a point that makes me fume with anger. Like others have written here, i want to say thank you for sharing all of your amazing work, and i wish you a lot of joy and love during your break!
Elle, I don’t blame you at all honestly! People need to stop harassing mod authors and treating them with respect. You’re a very skilled and talented creator and I hope your break does you wonders and lifts your spirit. Thank you for all the contributions you have given to the bg3 community! We’re so grateful <3
You do you, your mental health is more important 🥰 I definitely know I couldn’t handle modding mainly because I don’t handle people being rude to me so well 😅 anyways can’t wait to see what you post on the mods you’re currently working on for personal use :) get better soon 🫂
I hope you're able to find that joy again, for your own sake. :)
