The BG series sometimes had a serious case of We-couldn't-think-of-a-better-name-itis. After all, the very name Baldur's Gate itself should have been left behind in BG1, as that's where the city IS. "Shadows of Amn" is just supposed to sound creey....oh, there's something dark and spooky moving around in Amn....Ooohhhh....

On a completely different note, wouldn't it be really funny/stupid if we were all Ilmater-spawn?
("I can be a bigger loser and suffer more pain and punishment than you!"
"No you can't! I'm an Elven Barbarian with only 9 CON!"
"Oh yeah? I'm a Half-Orc BARD!"
"Aw, man, he picked a worse character than me....")
