Gut
Overview
Priestess Gut is one of the spiritual leaders of the cult. Together with Minthara and Dror Ragzlin she is one of three leaders of the goblins at the Shattered Sanctum.
Involvement
Gut can be found right after the entrance to the Shattered Sanctum. She can give the player the permanent bonus the Brand of the Absolute.
The party can make her go to her chapel to attack her or comply with her wishes. If the party complies, she will give them a potion to make them fall asleep, and wake up imprisoned. If the player character is an Elf, Drow or Half-Elf and they drink the potion, their will prevent the potion from working and Gut will attack immediately. Additionally, a Paladin's resolve will enable a Constitution Ability check to resist the effects of the potion.
Should the party be imprisoned and fail the respective checks to free themselves, they will be rescued by a dwarven Warlock named Korrilla at the service of Raphael, who will instantly kill Gut and Polma.

Encounter details
Priestess Gut can be fought in one of two locations: in the main hall where the party first meets her or in her private chapel after the party has chosen certain dialogue options. In her chapel, Gut will be completely alone, however on her first turn in combat (if she is still alive) she will use
to call for backup from the other goblins.Tactics
Gut can be defeated very easily in several ways. If the party has enough damage and good initiative then they can all team up on Gut to kill her before she can use
. She may attempt to use to help herself survive, but the party can bait her to spend her reaction on an opportunity attack before they attack her themselves.Alternatively, the party can cast
around Gut so that she can't call for backup. She will still be able to run out of the spell's area, but if the party groups up around her then she'll be forced to take a lot of opportunity attacks and will probably die before escaping.Speak with Dead
Gut can be spoken to with Speak with Dead.
