Fun Volo facts that some people don’t know just from BG3:
He’s not a bard, but a wizard, and has authored a few spells. Largely around being able to steal things, spy on, or escape things.
Volo is not just one of Mystra’s chosen, but also a Weave Anchor. Only Mystra and her most beloved and trusted chosen Elminster know this (if Volo knew, chances are he would tell everybody which kind of negates the point.) An anchor is a kind of failsafe; should anything happen to Mystra again, the weave would live on until she could be reincarnated. This enchantment is what gives him his extraordinary good luck.
He had a bastard son in Waterdeep in the late 1300s with a noble which was quite the scandal. He also fell in love with a dragon, and has been endlessly pursuing a Yuan-ti wizard for years (and, according to Ed Greenwood, she’s starting to come around to the idea…)
In fact, Volo gets through life by being the perfect mix of charismatic, handsome, and literally blessed with luck.
He also writes erotic fiction chapbooks, which pay the bills, under a pseudonym. They sell extraordinary well.
And the final fact is I love him so much
And the final fact is that ALL the sourcebooks that are Volo’s Guide to X are written in his voice, an unreliable narrator doing a terrible job, and they are so joyous. You can find pdfs of the old ones like Volo’s Guide to the North and they are so fun.

something very funny about bg3 is the fact that gale and volo very well could’ve known each other. gale and elminster were in the same wizarding circles and were both mystra’s lovers/chosen, and elminster himself edited volo’s books (and refused to print one titled “volo’s complete guide to the behaviour of nymphs”). like. imagine you are gale of waterdeep. you’ve spent the last year moping in your tower after your girlfriend breaks up with you, meanwhile she’s fucking your 1000+ y/o old friend and idol, who is also the editor of the realms’ combination Marco Polo/Chuck Tingle. you get a tadpole in your brain and find said writer getting heckled in a goblin camp. his editor tells you your ex (who he’s sleeping with) wants you to kill yourself.
what i am saying is every day gale dekarios wakes up

i know why it's confusing but Volo is not a Bard. he CALLS himself one, as a job description, but his CLASS is Wizard. and knowing he's a wizard actually explains a lot, because the Intelligence classes often have the Wisdom and Charisma scores of a dying houseplant and Volo keeps trying to roll those to get out of predicaments. classic ttrpg shenanigans

If Wyll is freed from his pact with Mizora, he no longer needs the Sending Stone in his eye. In fact, he'd want it out as soon as possible. And who do we know can safely remove an eyeball, doesn't mind pissing off a devil, and conveniently lives in your camp?

Food for thought.

My Mother Plays Baldur's Gate: Part 5
Summary: My retired mom is having me play Baldur's Gate 3 on her behalf because she has trouble using controllers/keyboards but still wants to "smooch the wizard boy." She is playing a neutral chaotic good wood elf druid; this is a detailed account of her crimes. Part 1 & 2 Part 3 Part 4
Sorry for the long break! Life got super busy for a second there. We're about 30-40% of the way through Act 3, and we finished up some companion quest lines and started making some plans to kill Gortash and Orin.
Here's what happened during yesterday's game session:
Scratch gave us an iron bowl at camp. My mom assumed this was somehow plot relevant, so she had me carry it around everywhere because "we might need it." I am not allowed to sell the bowl. She is a druid and her carrying capacity is still garbage. I suffer.
She LOVES Gale’s new kiss animations. I  tasked with smooching him before we leave camp every single time. Even if I just stop by to switch out a party member, I still have to kiss him goodbye. (And pet the animals, obviously.)
We accidentally blew up Volo outside the Steel Watch foundry with a poorly-placed Ice Storm that nicked the edge of the explosive barrels. His corpse was charred and unrecognizable, and my mom was distraught. She demanded to know why I blew him up, so I reminded her that casting Ice Storm was HER idea. We saved him the second time.
Cazador accidentally won his fight several times because we kept rolling dogshit initiative and got zapped by status effects before we could move an inch. The first time Astarion got turned to paste in the ritual, my mom nearly leapt out of her seat. (“RELOAD RIGHT NOW, HONEY.”) We killed Cazador on the fifth attempt, the rotten bastard.
My mom was locked in for the Iron Throne mission. The turn limit really freaked her out, and she kept second-guessing my choices every time I made a move because she was so nervous I was wasting time. I had to gently remind her that I’ve done this mission literally dozens of times. (We got everyone out with a whole turn to spare. Pfffft.)
Got the wavemother robe. I put it on Gale because I thought my mom would love it, but she was actually horrified because he “might catch a cold.” She robe is now somewhere in the camp stash next to all the spoons, iron tongs, and rags. It will probably never be found again. 
Saved the Gondians, and Mom now rides the “fuck Wulbren Bongle” hate train. Shout-out to my boy Barcus!
After watching the conclusion of The Pale Elf quest line (Astarion did NOT ascend, thank you), my mom quietly said, “I hope that actor knows how perfect he is as Astarion. What a wonderful man.” I had the pleasure of informing her that Neil Newbon won Best Performance at the Game Awards for his role. Congrats Neil Newbon, my mom is super proud of you!
Hoping to get together with my mom again soon and make some more progress through Act III. She told me to thank you for all your kind words of support!
