Halsin's romantic scene can be accessed with high enough approval and/or by camping in the [[Lower City]] '''only if the player has successfully completed [[Lift the Shadow Curse]] before embarking on the Road to Baldur's Gate.''' | Halsin's romantic scene can be accessed with high enough approval and/or by camping in the [[Lower City]] '''only if the player has successfully completed [[Lift the Shadow Curse]] before embarking on the Road to Baldur's Gate.''' | ||
While he is eager to be intimate with the player after losing the burden of the Shadow Curse, he will always encourage them before this scene to speak with their partner for consent if they are already in a relationship. [[Shadowheart]] | While he is eager to be intimate with the player after losing the burden of the Shadow Curse, he will always encourage them before this scene to speak with their partner for consent if they are already in a relationship. [[Shadowheart]] agrees enthusiastically and asks to hear how it goes, [[Astarion]] consents as long as the player says no when he asks if it's because they're unsatisfied, and [[Karlach]] is skeptical but supportive of the player's desires. [[Lae'zel]], [[Gale]], [[Wyll]], and [[Minthara]] will always decline, however, and a player dating one of them is required to either leave their partner for Halsin or reject his advances. | ||
If the player accepts Halsin's offer for a night together and has either stayed single, broken up with their partner, or gotten Shadowheart/Astarion/Karlach's consent, the player will meet up with him by a secluded tree during their next long rest. Any choice but the last can be selected for the first two dialogue prompts to progress a scene where Halsin strips and the pair shares their first kiss, but eventually, when the player strips, Halsin will accidentally turn into a bear out of excitement. If the player then selects "I'm flattered I have that effect on you.

Any choice but the last can be selected for the first two dialogue prompts to progress a scene where Halsin strips and the pair shares their first kiss, but eventually, when the player strips, Halsin will accidentally turn into a bear out of excitement. If the player then selects "I'm flattered I have that effect on you. Now come here" on the next prompt, Halsin will maintain his normal form and resume making out against the tree as the screen fades to black; the player will then sleep in camp as normal. Otherwise, if the player selects "Don't apologise. I like it", followed by either of the first two options in a fourth prompt, Halsin will turn back into a bear and begin mating the player as a squirrel living in the tree watches in shock. | ||
After either version of this scene, the player and Halsin will immediately be in a "relationship", though he will tell you that he prefers for what they share to be fluid and non-exclusive. If the player asks to kiss him | After either version of this scene, the player and Halsin will immediately be in a "relationship", though he will tell you that he prefers for what they share to be fluid and non-exclusive. If the player asks to kiss him while [[Jaheira]] is in the party, she may jokingly commend the two for their bravery because she gets bad breath after assuming her own [[Wild Shape]] form. | ||
Being polyamorous, Halsin's relationship with the player will not be affected by any other romances, and he is one of the few partners that can join the foursome with the drow twins at [[Sharess' Caress]]. | Being polyamorous, Halsin's relationship with the player will not be affected by any other romances, and he is one of the few partners that can join the foursome with the drow twins at [[Sharess' Caress]]. If Halsin participates, he will be heard turning into a bear once again and carrying the player around, much to the shock and amusement of the twins. | ||
Like the other romance options, Halsin and the player can take [[Zethino]]'s love test together at the [[Circus of the Last Days]]; his response is positive if the player answers two or more questions correctly. | Like the other romance options, Halsin and the player can take [[Zethino]]'s love test together at the [[Circus of the Last Days]]; his response is positive if the player answers two or more questions correctly. | ||
