Gather Your Allies is a main Quest spanning all three chapters of Baldur's Gate 3. It is obtained in Chapter One and completed in Chapter Three. Its objectives are completed as various quests are completed during the campaign.

Objectives

  • Recruit allies in the fight against the cult
  • Freeing ourselves of the parasite is proving more difficult than we imagined. We should be on the lookout for powerful allies - we'll likely need them in the fight to come.
    • Volo has become a most loyal ally. His powerful words of encouragement are sure to be at our backs in the trials to come.
    • Auntie Ethel is grateful for us letting her keep the child. We can rely on her help in the trials ahead.
    • Halsin is grateful for our help protecting the sanctity of life. We can count on his formidable druidic powers, should the need arise.
    • Yurgir, pleased to be free of his contract, will lend us the hellish might of an orthon in the trials to come.
    • Mizora is sure to seek revenge for her abduction to Moonrise Towers. When the time comes to face the Absolute, we'll find her on our side.
    • Isobel is grateful that, thanks to us, her beloved is safe. We are sure to have the light of Selûne guiding us in the darkness to come.
    • Dame Aylin, the fearsome aasimar, is now our sworn ally. She'll have our backs in any fight - no matter the enemy.
    • Lorroakan is more powerful than ever with the Nightsong in his possession, thanks to us. The might of Ramazith's Tower will be at our backs, should we ever need it.
    • Rolan is grateful for our help securing his position in Ramazith's Tower. We can rely on the tower's full power, should we ever need it.
    • Arabella is back from learning how to control her powers. We can trust that her magic will be there to help us when we need it most.
    • The strange creature is thankful that we helped it enter the city. No doubt we'll have a powerful ally when we need it most.
    • Valeria feels indebted to us for having saved her from an untimely death. She and her City Watch are prepared to support us in the final battle.
    • Dammon the weaponsmith has become a staunch ally. We can rely on his ingenuity and the owlbear cub's might in our final battle.
    • Wulbren and the Ironhand Gnomes no longer have to contend with the Gondians. We can rely on their aid, should we ever need it.
    • The Gondians' lives were saved with our help. We've made loyal allies in them, should we ever need their aid.
    • Barcus won't forget that we helped him become the new leader of the Ironhand Gnomes. We can count on his support should we ever need it.
    • Grand Duke Ravengard is grateful for us saving him from the Absolute's clutches. He will stand by our side in the final battle.
    • Florrick is immensely grateful that we freed her and helped with the threat at Moonrise. We are sure to have her and the Flaming Fist by our side when we need it most.
    • The Zhentarim don't like to be in anyone's debt - it's bad for business. For helping them, we are sure to have their blades on our side, should it come to protecting the city. It's their new home, after all.
    • Nine-Fingers is grateful that we helped her retain control of the Guild - she's not one to give away what's hers. We can count on her and her Lady's Court in the final battle.
    • Mol isn't one to forget those who have helped her along the way. She'll have our back in the fight to come.
    • We've made an ally of Kith'rak Voss. He and his mighty steed will aid us when the time comes.
    • Astarion is grateful for us helping him become Vampire Ascendant. We can count on his dark magic in the final battle.
    • The Gur people are grateful for our role in taking down Cazador Szarr. We are sure to have them by our side, come what may.
    • Shadowheart is thankful that we helped her gain her rightful position in the Sharran Cloister. We can count on the dark power of the Sharrans in the battle to come.
    • Viconia is grateful that we helped her establish her rightful position. We can count on Viconia and Lady Shar's faithful in the fight to come.
    • Jaheira has joined our party. We'll have whatever aid the High Harper can muster in the fight to come.
    • Bhaal is most pleased we have embraced him. The Lord's slayer will make for a powerful ally in the battle ahead.

The following objectives will be added for characters who leave or are killed:

  • Halsin has left, forging his own path. He won't help us in the fight to come.
  • We killed Dammon, so he and the owlbear cub can no longer aid us in the battle to come.
  • Shadowheart has left, so we will be without her aid in the battle to come.
  • We killed Viconia, so have lost the aid of her and Lady Shar's faithful.
  • Auntie Ethel would have lent us her aid, but we killed her before she could.
  • We killed Ulma, so we will no longer have the help of the Gur people in the final battle.
  • Astarion is gone, so we will be without his aid in the fight to come.
  • Counsellor Florrick was ready to support us in battle, but we killed her before she could.
  • The Guild are leaderless. They're in no condition to help us in our fight.
  • The Zhentarim are newly victorious, but leaderless. They will be busy with matters of their own, so will not be able to aid us.
  • Jaheira has left us - and with her, any chance of aid from the Harpers in the fight to come.
  • With Wyll dead, Mizora has little interest in helping us.
  • We sent Yurgir, who could have been a powerful ally in our final battle, back to the Hells.
  • We killed the owlbear cub, despite how far it had come. We will no longer have its support in the battle to come.
  • The phasm would have aided us in battle, no matter how formidable our foe, but we killed it.
  • We killed Grand Duke Ravengard, who can no longer help us in the fight to come.
  • We killed Isobel despite all we did for her and Dame Aylin. She can no longer help us in the final battle.
  • We killed Dame Aylin despite all we did for her and Isobel. She can no longer help us in the final battle.
  • We killed Lorroakan, so no longer have his support from the heights of Ramazith's Tower.
  • We killed Rolan, despite having helped him accomplish his goals. He can no longer aid us when the time comes.
  • We killed Wulbren. He can no longer aid us in our final battle.
  • We killed Barcus, an unfortunate gnome until the end. He can no longer aid us in our final battle.
  • We killed Valeria, despite having saved her so recently. She can no longer aid us in our final battle.
  • We killed Volo, just a humble bard and documentarian at the core. He can no longer help us in the fight to come.

This will result in the final conclusion for the quest towards the climax of Chapter Three:

  • The allies we've made on our journey have all gathered together - ready to lend us their power in the battle ahead. It is time to finish this - once and for all.
