Also, even though it would be awesome to meet or see a reference on previous characters like Minsc etc. is Larian even allowed to put that character in their game without asking Bioware permission first? Wotc owns the D&D IP but do they also own every particular story/lore/character published within the OGL/DMG?
WotC owns all of it, BioWare own nothing. Wizards already has used Minsc in other products, including comic books and some time waster game named Idle Champions or something.
