[@Fr0st1989]

Orin killing that poor cat is the worst of her crimes

[@chainsawboy2388]

I always pray that she doesn’t kidnap Yenna because if she kidnaps a party member than it’s possible for no one to die.

[@Lapaki-doodles]

Orion killing the cat and rubbing it in our face to screw with us totally backfired.

[@someguy8713]

grub was an innocent cat, he did not deserve to die

[@leetleshinigami6099]

"If you had killed me when we first met, I would have been just one more casualty in your crusade against the Absolute...and nobody would remember me." I love this line. In my first playthrough, and I'm sure in many others, that's exactly what she was.

[@What_do_I_Think]

Yes, Minthara is able to so much insight. That is what makes her interesting even with all her negative background -- and maybe because of it.

[@65firered]

Yeah, that's pretty much it.

[@silentbook4468]

Glad I opted to an evil playthrough as my first one. Minthara is defintely one of the best and underrated companions in the game.

[@lovechafes]

I wish they did more with yennas character. She potentially loses everyone she loves and doesn’t even get a letter in the epilogue. My character would have adopted her and her cat if given the choice

[@Observer675]

My personal headcannon is that she ends up with Jaheira's family

[@platedlizard]

My headcannon is that she's adopted by Shadowheart

[@trishapellis]

Well, Halsin does say he has 9 wagons full of children to take with him to Thaniel's realm. I always imagined she'd be among them. And now after some long-awaited patches, I can go with them!

[@elseggs6504]

My headcanon is that my character grew a headcannon powered by soup

[@irgendwer3610]

Yenna be like: I made soup

[@DCdabest]

Minthara can break your heart with her vulnerability as much as she can revolt you at times with her cruelty.

[@rainfyre2694]

When Orin revealed herself, my ranger stopped what she was doing and hunted her like a dog.

[@K.C-2049]

Minthara: I *did* see myself there me, lawful good every time: 🥺🥺🥺

[@Hazel-xl8in]

they should have let us hug yenna. i just want to hold her and reassure her that everything’s okay now. she’s just a child, and didn’t deserve any of that.

[@FuchvhCycycyv]

Lae'zel has the best reaction because she is finally thankful!

[@TyllerBoom]

Minthara saying no one would remember her hurts me in ways I couldn't imagine.

[@FenrirWolfganger]

Love that former psycho Minthara is the one who has the deepest insight from being captured by Orin. Thanks for giving us the different dialogue options or as the Githyanki would say "Chraith'kan Zharn".

[@khemeher]

I love Bae'zel. She just needs some dino nuggies and a nap.

[@Coolkat1102]

Poor grub 😭 i hate when she takes yenna the poor kitty

[@bifflebot4784]

"If you had killed me when we first met, I would have been one more casualty of your crusade against the Absolute. And no one would remember me." Holyyyy, Minthara casually dropping one of the hardest lines in the game.

[@Danielledaydreamer]

I have to let someone other than Yenna get taken, just so the cat doesn’t die.

[@kairaaitken938]

Halsin is a good pick in a "because he's so late as a companion. You are probably used to playing without him already"

[@jbwolf4]

How do you let someone else get taken? I figured it was a random party member at camp?

[@kairaaitken938]

@@jbwolf4 your love interest will never get taken unless you have a bug in your game. Somebody currently in your party won't get taken The only people who can be taken are Laezel Halsin Gale Minthara Yenna With Yenna being the last priority but the other companions are not in any specific order

[@jbwolf4]

@@kairaaitken938 okay cool, so far I’ve had lae’zel taken, and halsin so I didn’t really know the rules

[@SkyAlbaharu]

"If you had killed me when we first met, I would have been just one more casualty of your crusade agaisnt the Absolute. And nobody would remember me" now i am sad that i killed her in my first game cause i didn't even know she was a companion Dx

[@redrangers12330]

Same

[@avianflu4516]

Bro wtf minthara made me emotional 😭

[@silentbook4468]

She is an oddly sympathetic character if you bother to befriend her and take her in as a companion. Done both my playthroughs with her as a companion because she has more depth than some of the other companions. She is still insane in other regards, but enjoyable nonetheless.

[@ferael0013]

So Yenna is THE ONLY character who mentions Durge dying xD Nvm: Minthy also does

[@IvanovaMaytin]

Thank God she never takes Astarion

[@alicelufenia3648]

As a Minthara romancer it makes me so sad that of all of Orin's potential victims the one she ends up hurting the most is Minthara, in her clutches again like she was before. When I reached this point and she was taken I RUSHED to Orin as fast as I could figure out; from the murder victims to finding the tribunal, to turning on Sarevok (in a fight I thought I couldn't win at first, but then I did), to bee-lining for the temple of Bhaal without a long rest, in case Orin would kill her victim before we got there. I went in knowing nothing about her fight (hadn't found Volo or any other hints toward how to fight Orin yet) and that was a BITCH of a fight, but we pulled it off somehow (turns out Gale is REALLY FUCKING GOOD as a lvl 12 Wizard burning every spell slot and spamming lvl 5 and 6 scrolls left and right) My current character is a Tav, but I plan to replay as her, re-imagined as a Durge, which nicely fills in the few holes in her backstory I couldn't, and would give me the Durge exclusive lines to boot. I can totally picture her struggling with the urge in act 1, that leading her into Minthara's arms and an unexpected companion, to spending all of act 2 resisting in defiance of her actions in act 1, to learning the truth, restoring her oath that she will master herself and protect the love of her life... only for her to immediately be taken by the worst person on Toril she could be at the mercy of again, leading her on a roaring rampage to the temple, half-memories leading the way, and ultimately claiming that power with the promise she had made to Minthara to protect her empowering her all the way. Damn, Minthara's romance has no business being this good for how buggy and sparse it is, but it makes me want to go through it not once but twice, so they must have done something right.

[@K.C-2049]

fully levelled Gale is a fucking wrecker man. I usually go full tank mode with Karlach and Lae'zel with my bard and Shadowheart but that man's spell attacks are bananas. if you level up his HP and constitution with feats or perks or whatever they are in this game and give him armor and a shield (he can shield because he's a human!) he's a damn good battle mage.

[@giovannirogers]

I wasnt even at camp when Orin revealed she stole away Lae'zel... i was near the Emperor's old hide out

[@genkureshima9834]

That'a like a failsafe in case you don't take a long rest and explore beyond the Emperor's hideout. Orin's kidnapping is the first thing that happens during your first long rest in the Lower City, taking priority over anything so it makes sense

[@16Vagabond]

I hope if there is ever a continuation in some way of these characters...that they do Minthara justice. Don't want another Viconia or Sarevok situation...completely throwing their character development under the bus.

[@skinwclker5241]

Viconia gets me shaking in my boots. With Sarevok I can sort of get it but you put so much work into Viconia and the alignment change and it just h u r t s to know that in the end it was for not

[@frankfrankfrankfrankfrank]

Viconia follows Shar no matter what you do in BG2. Shar is almost entirely responsible for her undoing of any progress Gorions Ward made with her. Sarevok is a Bhaalspawn. Him returning to Bhaal side was always going to happen because he was ultimately afraid of death and if you didn't see that in BG2 you're naive. It's only the DUrge that gets a chance because of Jergals intervention.

[@rocketspaceships]

Minthara really is my favourite character, there’s something so horribly and tragically human about her

[@nelsilascurain7751]

Even Halsin is like “damn how’d she do that” when reflecting on how Orin managed to move such a hunk like himself 😂😂

[@genkureshima9834]

Then the scene cuts to a flashback of Orin tip-toeing through camp while everyone is asleep, trying to drag Halsin by the arm (who's sleeping like a stone), getting frustrated then just fuckin' turning into an ogre and putting him over her shoulder BUT STILL tip-toeing her way out of camp as well. Imagine a big ass ogre in stealth mode and there you go

[@damiannichols1250]

How come minthara is the only one Orin hurts

[@bengunn9670]

Not the first time she became her victim

[@damiannichols1250]

@@bengunn9670 that's actually really sad

[@therrydicule]

Minthara was abused and "brainwashed" by Orin before getting to the goblin camp. She adored Orin, though, so they are elements of cults indoctrination to her character. Orin only saw Minthara as her new toy. Minthara is also growing. If you save her from prison, it's clear that the player character is the first one that believes in her capacity to do good. Albeit, old habits die hard.

[@barbbitter140]

Omg I love Minthara so much

[@glittertechnic]

man i love minthara so much

[@FalconWindblader]

Yet another example to show how disappointingly redundant Halsin has become in act 3. If Tav didn't end up siding with the goblins & end up destroying the grove, Tav & Halsin would've gone through thick & thin by that point, risking their necks for each other for 2 whole acts, & this is all Halsin has got to say after getting rescued?? He'd have been the OLDEST companion in the group in Minthara is absent, sagely enough to be made an archdruid, yet 'thank goodness you came for me & i'm sick of this place, let's go' is all he has to say, even when he ain't the quiet brooding type to begin with?? Damn, i'd never side with the goblins so i'd never end up getting Halsin killed, but if i were to go on yet another playthrough, i'd be damn tempted to just tell him to go our separate ways. People really ain't kidding when they said Halsin's writing got worse as the game progresses further.

[@lits88]

Realmente me da pena haber matado a Minthara en mi primera partida, no sabía que era un personaje jugable y ni siquiera recuerdo su muerte. Es como ella dice, solo fue una víctima más de la que nadie se acuerda. Creo que jugaré otra partida para explorar más cosas

[@Leonggnore]

If you aren’t playing dark urge you get the accept bhaal lines by default, at least according to my experience and the video.

[@purelytheoretical2205]

oh dang does this mean she can’t take karlach, wyll, astarion, or shart? interestingg 🧐

[@glamourruri4304]

I knew it was Yenna first time, thank goodness Orin didn't kidnap Halsin or I'd go crazy mad

[@ankitk236]

what about karlach, shadowheart, astarion, wyll. do they never get kidnapped by orin?

[@hungrysleepykitteh]

No, they're safe!

[@Pessimists]

I hate how they forced Yenna onto your camp but still pretended to give you the option to deny her. So many times have I tried to deny her, outright kill her, just for her to come back the next day with the same dialogue like I hadn't burnt her alive just yesterday.

[@user-gh1ql5uc8t]

She doesnt kidnap Shadowheart?

[@Hazel-xl8in]

no, these are the only characters who can get kidnapped. yenna is a last resort failsafe if everyone else is in your party or dead

[@02091992able]

So if you reject Bhaal Withers resurrects you and the companion Orin kidnaps? I know that is what he does if you reject Bhaal but I didn't think he would revive the dead captive.
