Involvement[edit | edit source]
Temple of Bhaal[edit | edit source]
Should the Dark Urge defeat Orin the Red] and embrace Bhaal's gift, becoming the latter's Chosen, the Harpers will set up an ambush at the entrance of the Temple of Bhaal, provided Jaheira is alive.
Under Jaheira, and potentially Minsc (if rescued), the Harpers will stop the Dark Urge as they leave the Temple. Jaheira will curse at the party, revealing how a century ago she and Minsc defeated the previous Chosen of Bhaal and let him rot under the temple,[1] forgotten by all. The Harpers, Minsc, and Jaheira will engage the Dark Urge in combat, proclaiming how they will defend the city again.[2]
Alternatively, if Jaheira was in the Dark Urge's party and then killed before leaving the temple, Blaird will be with the other Harpers outside the Temple. Captain Leafsong will greet the party with grim formality, stating that he had hoped to see Jaheira walk out the temple with them; he simply concludes that they'll mourn her later, before Blaird and the Harpers engage the party in combat.
