[@jack0f4lltrades28]

Hands down my favorite Astarion moment, when he realizes he's not the only one who shares his fate. It's tragic, because you can sense he feels a bit of comfort knowing he's not alone, but he also feels guilty for knowing what the Durge is going through. The fact that he offers advice to fight back versus succumbing really shows his growth and trust in the main character by act 3. This is great character writing.

[@Polomance862]

I think all the characters, to some degree or another have the same problem to varying degrees. They all deep down seek freedom. Lae'zel and her loyalty to Vlaakith, finding out everything she knows was a lie from the start. Shadowheart had her mind wiped and life robbed from her from Shar's Faithful. She seeks to be whole, free from Shar's spite. Wyll is bound to Mizora, and Zariel. He seeks to do good but knowing that as long as he relies on Mizora, he is just a tool for cruel hands. Karlach is a victim of Gortash and Zariel, losing her heart and future to tyrants. She seeks to find a cure and live her life so cruelly torn away. Gale is a victim to his ambitious love to Mystra, torn between his own goals, his lost favor, and ambition as a wizard. He seeks to live and be free of the orb's threat.

[@RazielTheUnborn]

​​​@@Polomance862Wyll is arguably shackled by more than just Mizora, he is shackled by the ideology of his father and it isn't until Mizora takes away his physical humanity that the shackles to that ideology loosens. Wyll wishes to earn his father's approval so much, wishes to live his father's ideaology so thoroughly that Wyll doesn't even have an identity that is his own. It isn't until he becomes a literal demon, breaks or embraces his contract with Mizora while freeing his father that he starts to become his own person in the end. He still wishes to be the idealistic hero, but in his own way. His own image.

If you do side with Bhaal and accept being his chosen and have both of them in the party with you, they turn on you and your party as you are leaving the temple. I had to kill both of them.

Just had this moment. I found it odd that I could confess to everyone except Jaheira, but she noticed something ‘behind my eyes’. After my beloved Astarion gave me hope I took a long rest. Guess who rocks up and tells me they know? To me it was more touching than Astarion. That she stayed with you the whole night, you felt safe, and the next morning she answers all your questions and tells you whole its difficult, it’s completely worth it.

Place smokepowder barrels on Dror Ragzlin's room (preparation for battle after knocking out Minthara. 3. DO NOT talk to Minthara, Just attack her directly or steal in front of her so that she'll have the temporary hostile status. 4. Knock her out, if you do, her status should say Knocked out (temporarily) 5. Kill Dror Ragzlin by detonating the bombs. 6. Kill Priestess Gut if you haven't already. 7. If you did everything correctly, you can now finish the goblin quest and do the tiefling party. Minthara should be on the moonrise towers if you get there.
