well, i just finished playing ToB and all i can say is...WOW.

i mean, some of those endings simply surprised and shocked me, but a lot of them moved me as well. For example, Keldorn is killed in the battlefield while defending a pass from giants and Cernd is killed by his own son. but probably the most saddening ending is where if you were in a romance with Viconia she bears a baby after you but is poisoned by a Drow assassin.

a few of them were a bit funny as well. Edwin is turned back into a female by Elminster and is forced to become a tavern maid in Waterdeep. korgan takes control of a clan of bloodthirsty dwarves and raids the underdark. Jan leads a monkey riot against Vaelag, Lissa's husband. then he marries her.

i was also surprised at how different the outcomes could be. if you werent in a relationship with Aerie, she becomes a high priestess of a gnome village. if you were in a romance with her, she eventually finds her parents and the winged race she was stolen from.

altogether, a big thumbs up to bioware for creating one of the most memorable endings ever created for an RPG.

Agreed, they did some beautifull storyline work. Minsc and Boo return to Rasheman as heros. Later they start their own adventuring group. I thought it was a real nice touch for the game to conclude with a what happened segment.

If you choose to leave Viconia for bigger and better things she lives. Gains the respect and honors of the Seldarine and journeys off into the sunset.
