If Shadowheart was handed over Viconia, Viconia can become an ally in the final battle providing [[Gather Your Allies#Viconia|Nightbringer's Shadow Adepts]] support, alternatively, if Shadowheart replaced her as the Mother Superior the same support will be provided by her instead.

== Tactics ==
If fought, Viconia is one of the more difficult opponents in the game. She is continuously affected by the conditions {{Cond|Nightbringer's Beloved}} and {{Cond|Radiant Retort}} and begins the battle under the effect of {{Cond|Sanctuary}}. She gains unique spells depending on your answers during the Mapping of the Heart and the "Heartform" (False Heart, Craven Heart, etc) she determines you have.
* e.g. saying you're afraid of turning into a [[Mind Flayer]] gives her the spell [[Mapped Terror: Ceremorphosis]] to make that character believe they have undergone ceremorphosis, preventing them from moving or taking actions for a turn. Viconia also gains the spell [[Castigate Heartform]] which allows her to put the relevant Heartform debuff on you, e.g. [[False Heart]] which lasts until the next long rest or until you get silenced and which makes you have disadvantage on [[Wisdom]] saving throws and makes Viconia's attacks against you automatically crit.
**As the beastly Heartform Terrors are illusions, [[Dominate Beast]] doesn't work on them.
She is supported by approximately twenty allies including two powerful [[Justiciar Crusader|Justiciar Crusaders]] and four [[Sharran Fidelian]] mages. All of her allies are capable of controlling the arena with {{SAI|Darkness}} and casting synergistic spells like {{SAI|Overwhelming Grief}}. All possess the {{SAI|Shadow Ambush}} passive, allowing them to deal massive [[Necrotic]] damage to the party; they also liberally use {{SAI|Bone Chill}} to prevent healing.

* {{SAI|Castigate Heartform}} - applies a unique debuff depending on the character's responses to her [[Mapping of the Heart]]
* [[Mapped Terror]] - unique effects depending on the character's response to "What is your greatest fear?" during her [[Mapping of the Heart]]

* Viconia's state in Baldur's Gate 3 is partially reflective of her default epilogue in ''Baldur's Gate II: Throne of Bhaal'', wherein she found a Sharite cult in Waterdeep. However major changes were made: in the [https://baldursgate.fandom.com/wiki/Viconia_DeVir#Epilogues original epilogue] Viconia killed all cult members due to their betrayal, shrugging off the chastisement of her goddess, which mirrors her early rebellious actions against {{FRWiki|Lolth}}. She then stopped several crises with the help of {{FRWiki|Drizzt Do'Urden}}, including saving the elven city of Suldanessalar, for which she received honor from {{FRWiki|Queen Ellesime}}, and then had an unknown fate. In Baldur's Gate 3, Viconia's motive behind the Waterdeep slaughter was changed to obeying Shar's order, and she became a faithful tool of her goddess since then.
