Yafeu is a djinni in Baldur's Gate 3, found trapped within a Djinni Lamp in the Sorcerous Vault.

A rescuer?! Oh, you've arrived in the nick of time, saintly adventurer - I've been trapped for so long, I daresay I'm half mad, ho-ho!
— Yafeu

Involvement[edit | edit source]

Within a room hidden behind an illusory wall in the Sorcerous Vault X: 374 Y: 1039, the party will come across a peculiar lamp. A character who touches or interacts with the lamp in any way will be transported inside the lamp, where they will meet Yafeu.

Yafeu will be ecstatic to meet his rescuer, explaining that someone must be inside the lamp at all times, and any new occupant will take the place of the previous one. Yafeu will be released back into the world, and the player trapped within the lamp.

Back outside in the vault, Yafeu will greet anyone who remained in the room, addressing them as a servant. [note 1] If the character responds indignantly that they are not a servant, or tell Yafeu that it is "time to die", he will attack the party.

Otherwise, Yafeu can be asked to give a little gold as compensation for the loss of the trapped character, or just be allowed to leave.

Escaping the lamp[edit | edit source]

Players have a few options for escaping the lamp, if their character becomes trapped inside. Click, hold, drag to move the lamp is sometimes required instead of "Use".

  • Summon any creature, and have them interact with the lamp to swap places with your trapped character.
  • Summoning any creature from within the lamp will free the summoner, and trap the summoned creature.
  • A trapped character can cast Banishment on themself to escape.

If the lamp is left unoccupied, for example through dismissing a summon or banishing oneself, the lamp will be destroyed.
