How about an Episode-1 style adventure, based around the aftermath of the Time of Troubles, with a young Harper as the hero. As he learns the tricks and tips of heroism in his career, he uncovers a devilish evil just waiting to rise, and charged with the protection of three infant children marked by the Gods?
You would have an awful lot of plot threads woven into the story, drawn and extrapolated from BGs 1 and 2, the three children of course being Sarevok, Imoen and the future hero of BG.
- A clash with the Dragons of the Stoneback Mountains, that leaves the red dragon Firkraag with a taste for vengeance;
- The debate over the fate of the infant child between the elders, Gorion and Galvarey;
- Aiding two newly-wed Harpers, Jahiera and Khalid, in exposing the slavery network of the corrupt Baron Ployer;
- The kidnapping of one of the children by a mage named Winski Pertorate;
- Clashes with the cult of Cyric wishing to eliminate these offspring of their deity's most hated enemy.
You could get to go back and witness Gorin's career as a Harper, and meet several individuals or visit places you'd recognise as places you will visit in the BG games. You'd learn more about the mysterious organisation known as the Harpers. It'd be a blast from the past, but I'd enjoy it.
