Inspiration is a game mechanic in Baldur's Gate 3. Inspiration can be used to reroll a failed Ability Check.
You may have up to 4 Inspiration Points at a time.
Inspiration is shared between all characters, so you have a maximum of 4 inspirations for the whole party not per character, and if one character gains inspiration it is added to the pool so another can use it.
Gaining Inspiration[edit | edit source]
Inspiration Points can be gained by completing specific actions that reflect a character's Background while that character is in your active party.
See each individual background's page for a list of Inspiration-granting actions:
