Karlach can be encountered as part of {{CharLink|Wyll|Wyll's}} story or by speaking to {{CharLink|Anders}} in the [[Toll House]] in the quest {{Quest|Hunt the Devil}}. She can also simply be encountered on [[The Risen Road]] {{Coords|111|506}}. Karlach is below the bridge of the Toll Road, near the stream. Here, she appears to be struggling to control herself, her body engulfed in flames. | Karlach can be encountered as part of {{CharLink|Wyll|Wyll's}} story or by speaking to {{CharLink|Anders}} in the [[Toll House]] in the quest {{Quest|Hunt the Devil}}.

When the party approaches Karlach, she will point a crossbow at them and threaten to put a bolt through their eye. The party can attempt to respond with one of the following options: | |||
==== Talked to Paladins of Tyr ==== | |||
* {{Dialogue option|I'm hunting a fiend - you fit the description.|roll=Persuasion|dc=5}} | |||
* {{Dialogue option|HERE TO KILL YOU. '''SLOWLY.'''|tags=Berserker|roll=Intimidation|dc=5|advantage=y}} | |||
* {{Dialogue option|I was warned you're dangerous - so am I.|roll=Intimidation|dc=5}} | |||
==== Didn't talk to Paladins of Tyr ==== | |||
* {{Dialogue option|If you keep pointing that thing at me this is going to end badly for you.|roll=Intimidation|dc=5}} | |||
* {{Dialogue option|'''''ROAR.'''''|tags=Berserker|roll=Intimidation|dc=5|advantage=y}} | |||
* {{Dialogue option|I just want to know what's going on here, I swear.|roll=Persuasion|dc=5}} | |||
If the check is passed successfully, she claims she is no devil, simply a victim of the Blood War who was involuntarily conscripted. The tadpole aids in proving her motives, showing Karlach desperate and afraid, hoping to escape to her home of Baldur's Gate. If the check is failed, Karlach tells the party member to 'piss off'. | |||
Choosing to believe Karlach has her join the party. She asks for help - her former master, the archdevil [[Zariel]], sent a group of demons after her who are masquerading as Paladins of [[Tyr]]. They are holed up in the Toll House, recovering from wounds from their first confrontation with Karlach. Karlach asks that she be brought along to confront them. If Karlach is brought along, Anders is shocked and afraid. He says the paladins won't survive another assault and begs the party not to let her hurt them. A {{Ability Check|Insight|10}} reveals there's a squint in his eyes that indicates he's lying. Using {{SAI|Detect Thoughts}} also reveals Anders serves Zariel. If Anders is simply called out on his lie, he quickly drops the act and reveals his true allegiance with Zariel, attacking the party. Once the battle is over, Karlach goes into a frenzy, destroying things and setting fire to the Toll House. Karlach explains she has an Infernal Engine for a heart that lets her burn as hot as the Hells. Unfortunately, it seems to be running in overdrive ever since she left [[Avernus]]. She says she needs to find a mechanic that can tune up her engine and that the paladins let slip that a tiefling infernal mechanic is in the area. | Choosing to believe Karlach has her join the party.
