'''Minthara''' approves cruel attitude towards other beings and any choices aimed towards gaining more power. | |||
Being a drow, Minthara has a highly hostile demeanor, considering pretty much everyone as inferior. As a scion of a noble House, she holds other drow characters in high regard, not hesitating to show all others their proper place. Also, Minthara prefers straight and harsh decisions to any subterfuge, and approves exerting revenge on everyone who wronged her. Finally, she appreciates any actions that might help her regain due respect and position within power structure of her homeland, Menzoberranzan. | |||
'' | Minthara '''dislikes''' expresses of any weakness or spinelessness. These traits, in her opinion, include peacefulness, conformity and wish to help those in need for the sake of it. She disdains most acts of charity and expressing compassion to the weak and meek{{note|name=Approval|Almost the only major exclusion to this demeanor is Minthara's approval towards Yenna early in Act Three. There, almost all companions react positively to the player's attempts to help a motherless child}}. Lastly, she doesn't approve stopping others from cruel behavior. | ||
As Minthara can only be recruited after being used and then sentenced to death by the Chosen of the Absolute, she considers the latters as her implacable foes. Hence, she approves any player's choices directed to defeating current leadership of the cult. | |||
The actions and choices listed on this page will raise or lower {{CharLink|Minthara|Minthara's}} approval{{note|name=NoApproval|The entries on this page are based on the in-game dialogue files as of Patch 7. There are multiple reasons for some approval entries to not work on any particular game installation, from modding to bugs to simply having max approval already}}. | |||

Latest revision as of 14:11, 14 February 2025
Overview | Approval | Banter | Romance | Combat |
Minthara approves cruel attitude towards other beings and any choices aimed towards gaining more power.
Being a drow, Minthara has a highly hostile demeanor, considering pretty much everyone as inferior. As a scion of a noble House, she holds other drow characters in high regard, not hesitating to show all others their proper place. Also, Minthara prefers straight and harsh decisions to any subterfuge, and approves exerting revenge on everyone who wronged her. Finally, she appreciates any actions that might help her regain due respect and position within power structure of her homeland, Menzoberranzan.
Minthara dislikes expresses of any weakness or spinelessness. These traits, in her opinion, include peacefulness, conformity and wish to help those in need for the sake of it. She disdains most acts of charity and expressing compassion to the weak and meek[note 1]. Lastly, she doesn't approve stopping others from cruel behavior.
As Minthara can only be recruited after being used and then sentenced to death by the Chosen of the Absolute, she considers the latters as her implacable foes. Hence, she approves any player's choices directed to defeating current leadership of the cult.
The actions and choices listed on this page will raise or lower Minthara's approval[note 2].
For more information about the approval system, see Approval.

Notes[edit | edit source]
- ↑ Almost the only major exclusion to this demeanor is Minthara's approval towards Yenna early in Act Three. There, almost all companions react positively to the player's attempts to help a motherless child
- ↑ The entries on this page are based on the in-game dialogue files as of Patch 7. There are multiple reasons for some approval entries to not work on any particular game installation, from modding to bugs to simply having max approval already
- ↑ 3.0 3.1 3.2 Minthara uses specific expressions in drow language quite often, though she usually translates them for the player character. However, you can also refer to
Drow dictionary on the Forgotten Realms Wiki to know more
- ↑ A fictional detective who appeared in a series of books and short stories written by a Cormyrian scribe Lodevin Parkar. More about him can be found at
