* 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 honour 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.

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. She now seems to have overcome her personal trauma in previous games and is capable of executing certain tasks for Shar obediently, such as abducting children and torturing their relatives, similar to what Lolth did to her beloved brother in her backstory.
