That's all interesting, but without any context for how the world views these events I don't know how to treat them in-character. I know there was a reboot (or two?) the board was wiped, gods died, dead gods lived, and gods who where killed lived again but different etc. etc. because I know how reboots work these days I know that all the information, while probably in a book at HQ somewhere, isn't given wholesale to us.

Now what this means as far as BG:3, I don't know if people are gnashing there teeth and tearing out there hair about the mutability of reality or if there's a Cthulhu-esque veil between the nonsense and them, how much does the mundane "man on the street" know about such things?

Let's use Baldur's Gate as an example, the entire plot revolves around the death of the god of murder. Here's what I knew about Bhaal at the beginning of Baldur's Gate: He's the dead god of murder; here's what I knew about Bhaal at the end of Shadow of Amn: He's the dead god of murder who "got around" in an attempt to escape death. something something Cyric.
