 | You face an Uncertain Future. Your lineage tempts the unscrupulous
to use you and the ignorant to fear you. You will face a foe who views
you as no more than chattel, who toys with you at every turn, a
villain whose goals go beyond a quest for power and who threatens to
use a lost companion as a tool for unparalleled destruction.
 | An Epic Continuation of the Story that Began in Baldur's Gate
 | The choices you make will not be easy, and you may have to align
with the lesser of evils when all evils cannot help but seem equal. In

lived through adventures that profoundly shaped the Forgotten Realms.
