Inspiration

Inspiration is a game mechanic in Baldur's Gate 3. Inspiration can be used to reroll a failed Ability Check.

You may have up to 4 Inspiration Points at a time.

Inspiration is shared between all characters, so you have a maximum of 4 inspirations for the whole party not per character, and if one character gains inspiration it is added to the pool so another can use it.

Gaining Inspiration

Inspiration Points can be gained by completing specific actions that reflect your character's Background.

See each individual background's page for a list of Inspiration-granting actions:

• Acolyte (Shadowheart, Zenith Feur'sel, and custom origin characters)
• Charlatan (Astarion, Kree Derryck, and custom origin characters)
• Criminal (Ver'yll Wenkiir and custom origin characters)
