    If you encounter Nyalee in Throne of Bhaal on December 25 the background music changes to Wham!'s Last Christmas. "Last Christmas I gave you my heart. But the very next day you gave it away" :)

    Did you know that despite what the description in its item tooltip suggests, the rabbit familiar in EE actually has the highest overall best thief skills of any familiar?

    If you add it to party with Ctrl+Q you'll see that this is due to the fact that it has Alora's "Rabbit Foot" ring in both slots, which in the Enhanced Edition give it a whopping +20 in every thief skill except Open Locks.

    Poe Damaron from Star Wars got his name from Odamaron in Throne of Bhaal.

    "Werewolf" is actually pronounced "werewoof."

    If you beat Baldur's Gate 2 without dying, you get to ride Yoshi at the end.

    And if you beat the Shadows of Amn without a single party member getting hurt you unlock Bowser as a companion. You can find him in a cage in Amkethran (and nobody really knows what to make of him).

    Everything is fun when you have a Yoshi!

    Seriously, just look at him!

    I mean, what, what the hell even is he? What is that?

    You can't explain that. Science can't explain that.

    Somehow, David Byrne missed that one.

    You didn't actually save Rielev in Chateau Irenicus. Rielev's unit has a backup energy source: 5 minutes after you leave his room, he wakes up again, and is in horrible pain just like before.

    But if you have 21 Intelligence in ToB (a Potion of Genius works fine), you can go back to Rielev's room via a special dialogue option in the Pocket Plane, and finally release him from his suffering by shutting down his unit.

    Or, if you're a wizard or a thief with the Alchemy HLA, you have another option instead: you can transport one of the preserved bodies from the tanks in the other room, and Rielev the Pickle will be able to spend the rest of eternity with his soulmate: a sexy lady pickle named Cucumbria.


    This is the expression he makes when he first sees Cucumbria.

    At any one time there are three monks in the library of Candlekeep tasked with writing down the names of all known dragons in Faerun.

    Currently they are still stuck on how to spell Thaxll'ssillyia

    And then they've got to work on the pronunciation guide.
    Meanwhile, they are constantly hounded about the translations to other languages, and why do they insist on using a scroll medium instead of this other medium that I use?
