Volothamp Geddarm is timeless. Literally. After the Spellplague, Mystra and Elminster worked together to make an anchor to keep the Weave stable, and they chose the most unlikely thing possible: An incredibly foolhardy Wizard and Bard, best known as Volo. If Volo dies, the Weave goes with him, making all of reality highly unstable as a result.
Mechanically speaking, if Volo dies, anyone who casts a spell will be inflicted with a variation of Wild Magic, which will proc 100% of the time. This mod is compatible with mods that add to the Wild Magic table, and is best enjoyed with as many possibilities as possible.
