Hey all, this is my comedy fiction interpretation of my EE Main character’s Bhaalspawn misadventure.
A bit of setup-
I rolled a 93, took a while but I had something specific in mind...
S 18/58
D 19
C 17
I 18
W 3
Ch 18
Elf Fighter/Thief (oh yes)
Enough open lock and find traps to open all chests and disarm all traps in the prologue ;)
Specialist in Long Sword and Two Weapon Style
(I had to remake the character when I happened to notice my speciality was TWO HANDED STYLE AFTER NASHKEL MINES lol but I’m glad because it drove me to my personal challenge:

EVERY POSSIBLE QUEST COMPLETED AS EARLY AS POSSIBLE BEFORE ADVANCING THE CHAPTER

More to come..

    Day 228, Hour 10 (17 Nightal, 1368)
    Dear diary,
    I had the craziest dream last night. Gorion was there but, like, wasn’t there. It’s been almost eight months since Gordon was killed. I know that I should have gone to Nashkel before now, but I was so busy with my checklists. Then there was that whole ugly business about the supposed murder of Gellana Moonshade, like, I don’t even know what they’re talking about. All I know is try sneaking one little wounded ex-Flaming Fist merc out of a sickbed and it is literally the end of the world. :s
    There was something else in that dream, though.. Something dark and strange. It almost reminded me of the feeling I had two weeks ago in that cellar under Ulgoth,s Beard. But worse. In a way I can’t explain even to myself.

    I’ll be providing character/game commentary outside of the entries (duh!)
    Part of My Roleplaying of the character I s the minimum wisdom score, brilliant and completely useless as far as sensibility. Forever following side paths and red herrings. Parchment pages full of checklists that need to be completed. Her Wisdom score is 4 now, though since the Tome from Durlag’s Tower...
    I also feel that the slow aging races reaching maturity by age twenty is due to the God’s blood.
    This is the portrait—�>

    Day 237, Hour 17 (26 Nightal, 1368)
    Dear diary,
    I have worst hangover EVER.
    Imoen and Vic just sat there and didn’t even try to stop me.
    Apparently I filled in some of one of my checklists but I’m not sure what I meant by Regional Trouble with a friendly goblin. Also something about a sports rivalry between Amn and Baldur’s Gate..I’m going to have to study these drunken notes later, but..a checked list is a checked list.
    Winter Wine and Berduskan Dark not a good mix. Thankfully the 8 gold I pay at Feldepost’s covers the cost of cleanup.

    Fun fact: I cleared every quest entry possible in chapter one.
    A book for Firebeard to Zombie Infestation and then some (The Friendly Arm Inn, A farmer’s Troubles)
    Then I zoned to the area where I helped Samuel and there was a tiny little black area that I walked Abby over to. Then that Flaming Fist guy looking for Samuel comes up to her. Oh boy, how long ago did I save?
    So I go to the internet (which is way different than the old days of playing BG!!) and I see that the only way to complete it is to kill Gellana Moonshade :s Thank goodness for RPG logic and having a True Neutral character. I tried pickpocketing her first (with a low score, I might add) and she obviously went hostile. The rest is history, and the Quest log is still TI-I-I-IGHT!

    Hate to interrupt, but out of curiosity, what difficulty are you on? Not that it's super important, just... you know... setting the scene. I'm assuming core rules...but you know what they say about assuming... regardless....
    I'm loving it so far.

    l always play core rules.

    I changed over to a Fighter/Mage/Thief and just hit 6/6/7.
    I rolled a 99 for stats with an 18/99 strength. I’m now solo playing using Viconia as a healer and storing all npcs as action figures at the friendly arm inn.

    I never ever after twenty years of Baldur’s gate knew about shoal the neirids quest so I have that done now.
    (Me and my friends just used to kill her with a bow)

    Most importantly I HAVE A RABBIT NOW. So I’m really not soloing.

    I’ll make a question post but it’s been 15 years since I fought Sarevok. I just cracked Durlags with Abby, will I be able to finish with my triple-class character?
