I'd add this to what I say at the end of my last post above. In keeping with this thread's purpose, if there was any way for Larian to *surprise* me with BG3, and this would be an awesome and beautiful surprise, it is if we learn later in the game that we are, somehow, the actual last remaining Bhaalspawn. And, the perfect way to do this would be to make this so ONLY for a custom PC, and NOT for any of the Larian origin PCs. So if you play as an origin PC, the angle connecting BG3 to the original games is something else. But if you play as a custom PC, then what makes your custom PC special is that they are the last Bhaalspawn.
Bonus points to Larian if our custom PC is the offspring of Abdel and Jaheira.
Would obviously require some very creative writing for a non-human/half-elf PC.
