== Walkthrough ==
=== Confronting the Elder Brain ===
[[File:Netherbrain.webm|gif|350px|thumb|The reveal]]Confront the Elder Brain is acquired at the end of [[Act Two]], after the Chosen Three are revealed to be controlling the Elder Brain as part of their plot to take over Baldur's Gate. However, the quest cannot be meaningfully progressed until [[Get Gortash's Netherstone]] and [[Get Orin's Netherstone]] have successfully been completed. Orin must be defeated and Gortash must either be defeated or his bargain accepted as part of [[Consider Gortash's Bargain]]. Defeating both Orin and Gortash causes a vision of the Elder Brain in the [[Morphic Pool]] beneath the city. If Gortash is allied with, then he reveals the Elder Brain's location and tells the party to use the boat under the city to meet him there.

The Morphic Pool Dock is north of the Temple of Bhaal waypoint. Approaching the dock before obtaining all three Netherstones results in a swarm of [[Cranium Rat|cranium rats]] attacking. 

'''Important:''' Boarding the boat to the Morphic Pool is a '''point of no return and the start of the endgame'''. After this, it is ''not'' possible to long rest or visit camp. Plan accordingly and choose the desired companions for the final battles.

=== The Morphic Pool ===
[[File:Morphic Pool Map Quest.jpg|thumb|Map of the Morphic Pool]]
Arriving at the Morphic Pool, the party must make several Constitution checks to not be mindbroken by the Elder Brain. It speaks to the party, demanding obedience. As the party moves further north, a Perception check reveals an ambush oncoming which can be avoided by sneaking through the whole area. The party is attacked by several [[Intellect Devourer|Intellect Devourers]] and [[Intellect Glutton|Intellect Glutton]]. The Emperor remarks that something is corrupting the creatures.

Once the Morphic Pool's waters are reached, the party takes control of the Netherstones to confront the Elder Brain, which has become a Netherbrain, in a number of difficult checks:
* [STRENGTH] Muster the full might of your physical form - throw it into breaking through the brain's defences. (DC 20)
* [INTELLIGENCE] Your mind is yours to command - block out all possibility of failure and compel the brain to submit. (DC 20)
* [CONSTITUTION] You have survived this far - trust yourself. Dominate the brain. (DC 20)

The brain continues to taunt the party. She says the Chosen Three controlled her only for as long as she allowed them to.

* [DEXTERITY] The Crown is an unmissable target - set it in your sights, and trust that you will strike true. (DC 25)
* [WISDOM] A first attempt is just that - iteration is key. Aim for the Crown and try again. (DC 25)
* [CHARISMA] Nothing is immune to influence - determine to master the brain. (DC 25)
* Bow before the glory of the Netherbrain. Submit to domination. 

The Netherbrain tells the party she was the one who informed the Chosen of the [[Astral Prism]] and planted fear of what Orpheus could do to their plan. She was the one who let the Emperor slip its leash so that it could retrieve the prism and loosen the Netherstones from the Chosen Ones' grasps.

* [STRENGTH] You are strong. You are mighty. You will dominate the brain. (DC 30)
* [CONSTITUTION] Your resilience will not be shaken - cast the spell again. (DC 30)
* [INTELLIGENCE] It may not be easy, but it was always supposed to be possible - do it again. (DC 30)
* Bow before the glory of the Netherbrain. Submit to domination.

One final, near impossible check remains. While a critical success will weaken the Netherbrain for the final fight, in the short term the result is inconsequential, as the Netherbrain is too powerful.
* [STRENGTH] DOMINATE THE BRAIN (DC 99)
* [DEXTERITY] DOMINATE THE BRAIN (DC 99)
* [INTELLIGENCE] DOMINATE THE BRAIN (DC 99)
* [WISDOM] DOMINATE THE BRAIN (DC 99)
* [CHARISMA] DOMINATE THE BRAIN (DC 99)
* Give up. Allow the brain to dominate you.

Regardless of what the party does, the brain is simply too powerful, and the party is knocked unconscious. The Emperor steps in to save them by bringing everyone inside the Astral Prism.

=== The Astral Prism ===
The party awakens in the Astral Prism having benefited from a Long Rest and '''losing all Elixirs and "Until Long Rest" duration buffs they may have had.'''

The Emperor states that only an illithid can hope to take down the Netherbrain in its current form and that the illithid must consume the power of Prince Orpheus in order to succeed. As an illithid, the Emperor says he can do this, and asks the Netherstones be relinquished to him.

If the party rejects the Emperor's proposition, he states that he has no other choice but to reassimilate with the Netherbrain, and leaves the party in the Astral Realm. This can be done by selecting "I don't believe a word you just said" followed by "I will never trust you", or by asserting the intent to free Orpheus if the party possesses the Orphic Hammer. Afterwards, if the party has the Orphic Hammer, they can equip it and attack the crystals binding Orpheus.

There is also the possibility of the party not retrieving the Orphic Hammer and spurning the Emperor. In this case, Raphael appears within the Astral Prism. He has front row seats to the final hour, and now he's come with the sole salvation of Faerun. There are no more deals: only master and vassal. Sign a contract for the Orphic Hammer in exchange for the Crown of Karsus, or the world ends. Failing to uphold the bargain means the party's souls are forfeit. Refusing to sign turns the party into mind flayers who assimilate into the Netherbrain, causing a game over. The party is forced to [[Fulfill the Deal]].

If the party made a deal with Raphael and forgot to bring the Orphic Hammer, the cambion will appear to deliver to them the hammer they negligently misplaced. If Raphael is dead and the hammer forgotten, the party transforms into mind flayers.

Once Orpheus is freed, he confronts the party on their choices, saying the party should have let his honor guard kill them, so they could have avoided this whole situation. He also confronts the party if they stole the Githyanki egg in Steal a Githyanki Egg. However, he agrees to stand down and works with the party. He states that the Emperor was correct and an illithid is necessary to take down the Netherbrain. Either a party member can make the sacrifice, or Orpheus will if everyone refuses.

Otherwise, the party can choose to work with the Emperor. The Emperor can be given the Netherstones, and he assimilates Orpheus by devouring his brain. Another possibility is for Karlach to volunteer to become an illithid, as she is dying from her infernal engine anyway. The player character can also volunteer to become illithid. Whoever becomes illithid can wield the stones.

Regardless of who is allied with, Orpheus/the Emperor joins the party as a temporary companion and opens up a portal to the [[High Hall]]. The final battle to defeat the brain has begun.

=== Upper City ===
[[File:Upper City Invasion.webp|thumb|left|The Invasion|200px]]
[[File:Upper City Invasion2.webp|thumb|left|The ruins|200px]]
[[File:High Hall Quest.jpg|thumb|Map of the High Hall]]
The party returns to Baldur's Gate to find it in shambles. The entire city is a battle between the Nautiloids and an army of Red Dragons.

[[Kith'rak Voss]] will teleport in with a group of githyanki to confront the party. If Orpheus was freed, he will offer his aid freely. If The Emperor consumed Orpheus, he will be angry; a {{Ability check|Persuasion|30}} or {{Ability check|Deception|30}} will make him stand down and begrudgingly lend his aid; otherwise, he will attack.

Moving forward, the party finds a building where all of their allies are gathered, along with a Flaming Fist named [[Beorn Wunterbrood]]. The individuals that appear are based on who was successfully recruited as part of [[Gather Your Allies]]. These allies grant a new action - Call Forth Allies - that can summon reinforcements or utilize powerful AoE attacks.

==== Courtyard ====

Upon approaching the courtyard, the party will come across [[Watchman Gyordi|Watchmen Gyordi]], [[Watchman Goodge|Goodge]], [[Watchman Fry|Fry]], and [[Watchman Ebber|Ebber]] running away. A passive {{Ability check|Insight|20}} followed by a dialogue option with a {{Ability check|Persuasion, Intimidation, Deception, Strength|20}} will convince them to stand and fight, joining you as allies for the courtyard battle only. On Explorer and Balanced difficulty only, there is also a single-use restoration pod that gives the benefits of a Long Rest.

Entering the courtyard leads to an all-out battle against various Absolutist cultists, [[goblin]]s, [[Mind flayers]], [[Illithid Arcanist]]s, [[Winged Horror]]s, [[Intellect Devourer]]s, an [[ogre]], and a [[Spectator]].

It is possible to bypass this battle by avoiding entering through the main entrance, and approaching the High Hall from the northern or southern routes with stealth and invisibility.

==== Upper City Sewers ====
[[File:Upper City Sewers.jpg|thumb|Map of the Upper City Sewers]]

Instead of the courtyard, the party can take a hidden route through Upper City Sewers. This route features few goblins, a mind flayer, Absolute cultists, [[Necromite]]s, and a [[Death Knight]] named [[Stalker Svignee]].

==== The High Hall ====

After fighting or sneaking their way through the courtyard or the sewers, the party enters the High Hall proper.

The hall contains Intellect Devourers, Mind Flayers, and Banite and Bhaalist cultists. A [[Nautiloid_(Creature)|Nautiloid]] pulls up and bombards areas and summons Mind Flayer and Intellect Devourer reinforcements every turn.

There are two paths to the top. The left path has a {{cond|Medium Toughness}} door that must be broken down or lockpicked. The right path has a high wall that most characters will not be able to jump up, but a nearby statue that can be pushed over (with a Strength check) to provide a foothold.

At the very top is a door to stem of the Netherbrain. Approaching the stem ''with any character'' causes a cutscene that destroys the Nautiloid and ends the fight, and teleports the entire party to this location. On Explorer and Balanced difficulty only, there is another restoration pod. Regardless, the way forward is to climb the Netherbrain.

===Possible Gale Decision===
[[File:CTNB Quest Ending Gale Alone vs Brain Stem.jpg|350px|thumb|''"Though our time together will be exceptionally brief. Farewell, and happy landing."'']] Depending on the choices made prior to crossing the "point of no return" and if [[Gale]] is in the party, interacting with the Brain Stem can trigger a short conversation between him and the player character. It is now possible to let Gale climb the Brain Stem alone and use his orb to destroy the Netherbrain. If that happens then all the fights described in the rest of this article '''are completely avoided.''' After a cutscene with Gale activiating the orb, the party will get directly to the endings and after that to the epilogue of the game.

=== Atop the Netherbrain ===
The Netherbrain is guarded by four [[Illithid Arcanist|Illithid Arcanists]] and a [[Dominated Red Dragon]]. There are also sixteen [[Tentacle]] enemies hidden under the brain's surface that will appear if an allied character travels within 3m/10ft of them. 

The party will also face additional enemies that vary depending on whether the party chose to side with Orpheus or the Emperor: 

* If Orpheus was sided with, the Emperor appears on top of the Netherbrain to stop the party. The Emperor conjures four [[Dream Guardian|Dream Guardians]] to fight alongside him, stating that he knows the party's every weakness.

* If the Emperor was sided with, the Netherbrain itself spawns four [[Countermeasure|Countermeasures]], powerful Aberrations that are designed to counter specific classes. The Countermeasures summoned depend on the classes of the current party members.

The physical structures of the "Atop the Netherbrain" map area allow for multiple "safe" paths across the brain matter, including two visible paths along the "ridges" of the Crown to the east and west. Staying on these paths will prevent [[Tentacle]] enemies from appearing and attacking the party.

At the start of this fight, a counter is issued for 4 turns, after which a [[Nautiloid_(Creature)|Nautiloid]] ship will arrive and begin using the same "targeting" bombardment seen during the partys' ascent in the High Hall.<ref>At time of writing, the turn counter UI element may display as having five "sections" around its circle, with one section depleted, but still otherwise functions as only allowing up to 4 turns. It's basically impossible to confirm if this UI element behavior is a "bug", or if it had to be implemented this way for another reason.</ref>

Only an illithid party member that is "holding" the Netherstones can cast [[Karsus' Compulsion]]. To do this, the illithid party member needs to move close enough to the Crown of Karsus, and then cast Karsus' Compulsion for several turns. The party member can be attacked, possibly interrupted, and even killed while attempting to cast this spell. As no other party members can cast the spell in their place, the killed illithid party member must be resurrected to try casting [[Karsus' Compulsion]] again, at the next available opportunity.<ref> The resurrected illithid party member will still have the usual effects of being resurrected while in combat, and there may be multiple turns before they are capable of taking actions again.</ref>

Successfully casting [[Karsus' Compulsion]] opens up a portal to the "Mind of the Netherbrain" area, where a physical manifestation of the Netherbrain can be attacked. Killing it before the turn limit, leads to defeat the Netherbrain, once and for all.

===Mind of the Netherbrain===
This area contains a number of loosely connected floating platforms that are ''breakable''.  Periodically, a small group of platforms will be marked for destruction, and their outlines will turn pink. Once a platform is destroyed, any entities that were on the surface are instantly killed and cannot be resurrected during the fight. If winning the fight, then every party member who is killed here or in the "Atop the Netherbrain" area will be resurrected after the fight.

When at least one character successfully passes through the portal, the initiative order will introduce an entity representing the Netherbrain into the turn order.<ref>If Examined, the full name of the Netherbrain's entity is revealed to be "The Unbreakable Will of the Netherbrain", but in the Combat Log and Initiative Order this entity is still labelled as "The Netherbrain."</ref>  

To reach "The Mind of The Netherbrain" area after this trigger occurs, ''each individual party member and summoned creature'' must directly interact with the portal to be brought through, or else they will remain in the "Atop the Netherbrain" area.

Upon successfully interacting with the portal, the party member will appear somewhere inside "The Mind of the Netherbrain", on one of the aforementioned breakable platforms (out of the rough "half-ring" grouping of platforms that is farthest away from the Netherbrain). Once all party members are ''either'' inside the "Mind of the Netherbrain" area, or have been killed while still in the "Atop the Netherbrain" area, the turn order will truncate down to include just the entities present inside the "Mind of the Netherbrain" area.

===The Unbreakable Will of the Netherbrain===
When the Netherbrain is added into the turn order, a new counter will appear, overwriting the state of the prior timer. If the Netherbrain entity is not killed within the allotted turns, a Game Over screen will occur.

If the final DC 99 check at the Morphic Pool to "DOMINATE THE BRAIN" was passed with a critical success, the Netherbrain will start with the [[Against All Odds (Condition)|Against All Odds]] debuff, lowering its HP by 20%.

At the start of each of the Netherbrains' turns, it may attempt to cast a spell called [[Orb of Negation]] which summons an entity of that name with an aura condition attached to it, and adds the orb entity into the turn order. When the turn of an orb entity arrives, any platforms afflicted with the orbs' condition be destroyed. The party members and summons on the platforms will be killed.

The first time within each round that the Netherbrain takes damage from another character, it may attempt to cast an ability called [[Retributive Brainquake]], which deals 10-60 damage (minimum of 5 damage if an unspecified save is passed) to all characters who are within 30m of the Netherbrain.

When the Netherbrain reaches 0 hit points it is defeated and a conversation will trigger allowing the party to choose what to do with the defeated Netherbrain.

===Final Choice===
After the Netherbrain has been defeated, the choice must be made to either [[Control the Elder Brain]] or [[Destroy the Elder Brain]]. Regardless of the choice, this leads to the endings and after that to the epilogue of the game.
