    Sphere of Chaos, aka my room before the military fix me up.

    You lived in a spherical room?

    My basement is a rectangular prism of chaos.

    Your living quarters are just 3 dimensional? How limited...

    Actually they never mentioned their quarters moved through time... they mentioned just cubes and spheres not hyper-cubes and hyper-spheres.

    What would a Sphere of Law do?

    They move through time by doing nothing like we all do.

    You don't know that. Maybe the room only exists in only a singular moment. Entering and leaving the room entails time travel.

    Make it so I can't speed, jaywalk, text at stoplights, wear my non-safety glasses at my lab desk, not wear my steel-toed safety shoes when I'm transporting 1 gallon of methanol 25 feet to the next lab, sit inside my vehicle while I'm gassing up and it's 30 below zero outside, not make a complete stop at a 4-way stop when there's nobody around, cross railroad tracks when the cross-bar is down and the lights are flashing for no apparent reason because there isn't a train anywhere near, etc..., etc..., etc...

    Did you know that different bard songs are cummulative?

    So if in IWD you have a Skald and a Bard you could have them sing skald song and ballad of the three heroes for a total of +3 attack and damage at level 1 .

    Not only is Tazok smarter than the average half-ogre, he can read and write!

    I mean, maybe it's possible that someone else (like Venkt maybe) read and wrote these for Tazok. But Tazok is portrayed as more intelligent than most half-ogres, so maybe he really can read and write.

    He has an intelligence of 11, so there is no reason why he shouldn't be able to read and write.

    I mean, it's weird to picture a half-ogre sitting at a desk learning his penmanship, but there are ogre mages, so presumably there must be some sort of ogre educational resources available somewhere.

    Even if they don't learn it from other ogres.

    Gods never truly die. They may stay dormant for millenia just to return. Except Mystra, of course. That's her special ability :wink:

    A newly ascended God does have a lot of power and it would take centuries to die for lack of powers. Otherwise the ritual of ascension would be a death sentence.

    -The SoD epilogue scene where Corwyn has you cornered in the sewers and then you jump is a clear reference to Harrison Ford's "The fugitive" . I'm old enough to remember it s2

    Charname at end of Throne of Bhaal: I take Bhaal's essence to become a god.

    (Basically no one knows Charname has become a god, so no one worships him/her.)

    (A few days later, Charname is a dead god, a husk on the Astral Plane.)

    When I got there, I neither became a god nor died.

    There was a sourcebook that came out a year or so after Baldur's Gate 2 called Volo's Guide to Baldur's Gate 2. Most of it had nothing to do with the actual video game or it's locations. However, in it we learn that Volo really doesn't think much of Crimmor, the 'caravan centre' of Amn.

    (Spoilered since the description gets kind of graphic)

    Glad to see you're still posting here @elminster. I thought my Charname bounty hunter killed you multiple times not long ago. How'd you survive when all you had on you was a lousy wooden stick? ;)

    You killed 'Elminster' not 'elminster'

    The true elminster never capitalizes his name and instead sends out simulacrums and clones to handle day to day affairs. People are easily fooled by this. Even the writers at Wizards of the Coast have been fooled.

    Wait, does that include that Terminsel guy? I thought he was your little brother or something...
