→‎Changes to Viconia's backstory: Once again, in none of the games is it stated she's traumatized. Please keep your headcanon out of the wiki. In Baldur's Gate 1 she is being pursued by the Flaming Fist for murdering a farmer, his wife, and their children, so apparently her morality stops at infanticide.
(The "trauma" was referring to Viconia having nightmares about Lolth's actions, which did happen and was clearly established in Baldur's Gate 2. In addition, Viconia did show compassion for children in her dialogues in the previous game, such as: "That is your considered opinion, is it? You would prefer I lance the heart of a helpless child? You are more of a dolt than I thought, perhaps", "I had begun to question Lolth's appetite for power and absolute devotion with the child", etc.)

In ''Baldur's Gate 3'', Viconia's motive behind the Waterdeep slaughter was changed to obeying Shar's order, and she remained obedient to her goddess ever since. Despite having a history of refusing to sacrifice a child to another goddess, she has performed Shar's tasks faithfully, such as abducting children and torturing their relatives, similar to what Lolth did to her beloved brother—which has caused her nightmares and trauma in the previous game.
