I'd like to see a BG3 set in Waterdeep, with your PC beginning to really make an impact on the real movers and shakers of Faerun ie. Elminster, Khelben, the Seven Sisters (or at least a few of them anyway), Halaster Blackcloak etc. Maybe you start of in Waterdeep, then move on to Undermountain, which has gates to so many outer planes - you would be battling tanar'ri and baatezu as well as ancient dragons, godly heralds like maruts, not to mention other Bhaalspawn. A possible plot might have you ultimately deciding to play TRULY evil and to become at least a Godson of Murder (like Iyachtu Xvim). You might start to have to start building a cult of personality with worshippers, etc to prepare yourself for this, start getting involved in politics and intrigue with the gods, godlings etc. None of the gods would actually have to DIE so that would support the forgotten realms setting. Or you could also go the good way and use your divinity for good - or you may take the ultimate humble way at the end and decide to give it all up for the good of Faerun, if chaos is really sown in your footsteps (to paraphrase Alaundo). And that would put a close to the BG series!!
