Hunt the Devil is a quest in Chapter One of Baldur's Gate 3. Anders and his group of at the Risen Road claim to be Paladins of Tyr hunting the devil Karlach. Karlach claims to be a tiefling fleeing the Hells from servants of Zariel. Decide who to help.

Objectives

Walkthrough

At the far east of the Risen Road, you can find Anders, Cyrel and Trynn holed up in a Toll House. Not far, down the cliff and across the stream, you can find Karlach. Each will ask you to take out the other:

  • Anders claims his group are Paladins of Tyr tasked with a holy mission to hunt down Karlach: a fearsome devil already responsible for killing other innocents. He'll ask for Karlach's head.
  • Karlach claims to be a runaway tiefling forced to fight in the Blood War, and says that Anders and his group are servants of Zariel here to kill her and send her back to the Hells. She'll offer to join the party and help take Anders down.

Wyll has also been tasked with hunting Karlach by an unnamed party, and so if he's in the party he'll confront and threaten her. Either agreeing to take her out or convincing Wyll that he's been tricked into hunting a tiefling will result in Wyll's approval, no Ability Checks required.

There are a few ways to try and ascertain the truth:

  • Casting Speak with Dead will allow you to interrogate nearby corpses. The one in the room next to Anders will confirm he is a fallen Paladin of Tyr, serving Zariel.
  • Clerics of Tyr may receive a warning from their god.
  • If you take Karlach into your party and bring her to Anders, the two will confront each other. An Insight Check or Detect Thoughts will confirm he's the liar.

In any case, you'll have to take one party out. If you bring Karlach to Anders and attempt to leave him in peace, Karlach will force a fight; you can help either side.

Rewards

Notes

  • Although Anders asks for Karlach's head, the quest can still proceed if Karlach despawns or her head becomes otherwise unobtainable (for instance, Karlach is Knocked Out and the player Long Rests). The player can report to Anders that they weren't able to get her head but Karlach is still dead; he will reward the player with his sword as usual.

Consequences

Aside from the immediate rewards and possibility of obtaining Karlach as a companion, Karlach's fate will
