}}'''Malta''' is a cat NPC in [[Baldur's Gate 3]] who can be found near the [[Lower City Central Wall]]. Despite his bravado, he does not join the party. If [[Baelen Bonecloak]] died in [[Act One]], and the player has spoken to [[Derryth Bonecloak|Derryth]] about how the shop feels lonely without him, he can be asked to keep Derryth company. Derryth will first think to name him "Harry" before finally settling on the name "Walrus".

([[Animal Handling]]) ''Attempt to pet the cat.'' Successful:

* *...Purr.*

* *The cat seems to be trying very hard to remain aloof—and not wholly succeeding.*

* It was just another day in the city of lies. Baldur's Gate - where the people begged for justice until they starved.

* Two heroes were fated to cross paths that day. Their eyes met. Destiny was calling ...

* Strangers? Only in a fool's definition of the word.

* It was the start of something ~~incredible - two~~ heroes on the hunt for justice, no matter the cost.

* It was the start of something incredible—two heroes on the hunt for justice, no matter the cost.

* All the tall one had to do was say yes.

Reply "Excuse me?"

* Destiny is a fickle mistress. She showers you in riches one day and kicks you into the gutter the next. But today, she smiles.

* This could be the beginning of something. Two heroes against the world, enacting justice for those unable to seek their own.

* All the tall one had to do was say yes.

Reply "Are you all right...?"

* All the tall one had to do was say yes.

Reply "I don't think I'm the partner for you—but Derryth Bonecloak be just who you're looking for." (Only available of Baelen died in [[Act One]])

* The tall one volunteered another—the apothecary. A principled dwarf—a scritcher of heads, and a giver of scraps.

* Perhaps this was where the journey was meant to start after all...

Reply "Yes! Join me!"

* The tall one had passed the first test. The second would come when they were ready - and not before.

* When would they be ready? Only the tall one - and fate - truly knew.

When spoken to again:

* Upon their return, the cat couldn't help but wonder whether the tall one had finally decided how their die would be cast.

When spoken to again at Bonecloak's Apothecary:

* The cat beheld the one who'd delivered him from the streets while taking on the heavy burden of justice alone. He purred.
