His Majesty is a hairless Sphynx Cat with blue eyes in the Shadow-Cursed Lands.

Hiss! I say: HISS!
His Majesty, when prompted into a conversation

Involvement[edit | edit source]

His Majesty can be found on the first floor of the Last Light Inn. He is a rather stand-offish, hissing immediately approached and more throughout any interactions with him. Ranger class characters will immediately recognize him as acting territorial. A player character without Speak with Animals Speak with Animals active may try to call the cat to them with a DC 14 Animal Handling check and, at their own peril, attempt to pet him.

If Speak with Animals Speak with Animals is active, a player character can express that their intentions are pure and they only wish to admire him, after which he will allow the party stay and chat a little longer.

When asked if he has heard anything interesting, His Majesty will relay his conclusion that Isobel Thorm Isobel is a liar because she promised him milk but he has yet to receive any. The player can corroborate this story by finding a milk bowl in Isobel's room. However, stealing it and presenting it to His Majesty will not lead to him drinking it or improve your favour with him.

Appearance Changes[edit | edit source]

His Majesty was hairless when he was first implemented in Early Access and through launch. However, Larian gave him the fur of a long-haired cat in Patch #3 on September 22, 2023 with the following patch note:

Updated the visuals of His Majesty, who previously looked like Steelclaw. His Majesty's appearance now befits his name and nature.

This resulted in a massive outcry from players who felt the Sphynx cat breed perfectly fit the character of His Majesty.

Larian restored his appearance soon after in Hotfix #8 on October 3, 2023, deciding to change Steelclaw's appearance instead of His Majesty's:

Shaved His Majesty, who is once again a Sphynx. Steelclaw's eye colour has been adjusted so they are no longer identical twins.
