A gaming community free from the hype and oversaturation of current releases, catering to gamers who wait at least 12 months after release to play a game. Whether it's price, waiting for bugs/issues to be patched, DLC to be released, don't meet the system requirements, or just haven't had the time to keep up with the latest releases.

Viconia is the best party member in BG2, especially if you also recruit... a paladin. I may be biased and my phone SMS notification back when those were a thing was, "trust is for the foolish..."
Mechanically Anomen with his grandmastery capability outshines Viconia imo, whether you go the Flail of Ages classic on him or even Slings and play him back row.
As a character however then yes, Viconia is probably my favourite character in the game and probably the most well written of the bunch.
I am also very fond of Haer'dalis though.
