Orin the Red is one of the chosen of the Absolute. She is a practitioner in the art of inflicting pain and a grandmaster of murder. Orin has killed for many years, but has yet to be caught, thanks in part to her shapeshifting abilities, which enable her to take the form of anyone.

She hides her cravings to commit murder beneath these numerous masks, disguising her intentions and herself to lure unsuspecting victims.

Come to me, Father. Set my flesh to your unholy purpose.
— Orin the Red, during Act 3.

Interactions

Act Two

Orin first appears alongside Ketheric Thorm and Enver Gortash in the mind flayer colony underneath Moonrise Towers. Using her Netherstone, the Lash of Bhaal, she issues the order to the Netherbrain to march the Absolute's armies on Baldur's Gate.

Act Three

The player first encounters Orin in the village of Rivington, right before entering Baldur's Gate. Due to being a changeling, she can appear in front of the players under several identities (listed below). She tells the party that she is aware of their goals, even goading the player to be as violent and bloody as they can while attempting to obtain the Netherese Stones from her and Gortash.

Notes

  • Orin's shapeshifting allows her to innocuously follow the player as several different characters in the Wyrm's Crossing area. Among her disguises are:
  • Once the player triggers two of Orin's transformations from the list above, all other potential disguises will be the actual NPCs henceforth.
  • It's possible to identify when an NPC is actually Orin, they'll be level 12, though not have the large amount of hit points that come with that level, and have Legendary Resistance: Incapacitation.
  • Orin can only be at one place at a time: if a disguised Orin stays in the visual range of a party member she can't take the appearance of other NPCs elsewhere and thus is effectively pinned in place. This way it's possible to talk to the other genuine NPCs without triggering Orin's apparitions.
  • When a disguised Orin has been identified the player can attack the NPC. This will skip the NPC's dialogue and go straight to Orin's reveal who will vanish without giving her normal lines about Gortash. Even if the attack would have killed the NPC, Orin herself doesn't die.
  • Orin's kidnapping and impersonation event during the quest Rescue Orin's Victim is not fully random; it appears to follow a priority system among the companions left in camp (that is, companions not in your active party), prioritizing companions that have the lowest approval with the player, from a list of 3 possible kidnapping victims: Lae'zel, Gale, and Halsin (or Minthara). She will not kidnap a romanced companion. If none of these companions are available, she instead kidnaps Yenna.
  • At launch, the player could temporarily obtain Blade of the First Blood (a Shortsword version of Bloodthirst wielded by Orin) by killing Orin and looting her before the end of the battle, but this appears to have been fixed. [Needs Verification]
