[@Tinygreysamurai]

Too shy to dance.😢

[@BlackPsionic]

I mean *technically* it's because of Zariel's Protection interpreting Otto's Dance as a hostile action, causing her to vanish. That said we should totally complain to Larian about this so they'll make OIR *not* trigger Zariel's Protection, and have them add voicelines where Mizora gets progressively more and more annoyed with the player if they keep on doing it

Funniest thing is that otto's irresistible dance only forces you to start dancing, it doesn't puppeteer you, so looking at all of these sick moves it is now canon that everyone in the forgotten realms can do some sick moves on the floor.

[@novajester2390]

Karlach hitting the griddy over top of random corpses has happened multiple times in my playthrough, and it is always at least amusing. In the Shadowfell, I chose the wrong dialogue options while conversing with her & Nightsong, and ended up knocking her out. Naturally, I had hoped to avoid this, but such is life. I naively hoped that, if I killed her and cast revivify, that would at least bring her back into the fold, probably with hurt feelings. So, naturally, I stabbed her to move her from knocked out to dead. I then pulled out my scroll of revivify, and as I went to cast it, at the exact moment I realized it would not work and Shadowheart was permanently dead, Karlach deicded to bust a move directly atop her corpse. I was nearly incapacitated laughing for almost a minute.

[@FrostyFyre]

Karlach dancing on Gort's corpse and Astarion on Cazador's were the highlights for me

[@Turtles_and_hurdles]

0:38 This is literally a beautiful cinematic shot. A gorgeous view of a castle with Astarion in the distance, randomly perching atop a four story high building and dancing like there's no tomorrow is enough to bring anyone to tears.

[@Cronama]

You just know that Withers can bust it down but he hides it like all his other secrets. Forbidden or forgotten moves from worlds beyond that are sure to captivate and dazzle spectators.
