[SU/D] Baldur's Gate: The Drow War

[Sir Fratley]

For those who are familiar with the original Baldur's Gate series concerning the Children of Bhaal, one of the romance endings (the one concerning Viconia), states that she gave birth to the Bhaalspawn's child before she was murdered, poisoned by a servant of Lloth. Afterwards, their son began a war against the Drow people. This roleplay entails this war and also goes under the presumption that the child of Bhaal chose to become a deity of good. Some cannons can be played (Jaheira, the son of Valygar, Mazzy, Anomen, Haer'Dalis, Aerie, Sarevok, Jan, Nalia and Imoen), while others cannot due to being killed off in their respective BG2 endings (Minsc, Keldorn, Edwin, Cernd).

The rp takes place throughout the Sword Coast of the Forgotten Realms, the Underdark and even some Planar travel, including a journey to the plane of the Bhaalspawn God of Duality.

Bio: Gorion was born the son of the now God, former human Bhaalspawn Robert Hathworth and his Drow companion Viconia DeVir. Gorion was named after the man who cared for his father and aunt Imoen. He was raised to know the heritage of his mother and the human heritage of his father. Due to the legacy of his father, he was accepted by the general public and even studied the arcane arts, of which he showed a natural knack for. He also served as a cleric in service of his own father, the Bhaalspawn who ascended mortality and became a God.

However, the drow were not pleased with Viconia's 'betrayal' of the drow people. Lloth, the drow spider Goddess saw the new God and his offspring as a threat. Viconia was poisoned, but lived long enough to tell her son everything that had happened and warn him that he would become Lloth's next target. In a fit of rage over the murder of his mother and the threat that Lloth now posed to his life, Gorion set out to wage war on Lloth and the drow of Underdark.
