Talk:Wilderness
🚧 WIP by tieflingtea 🚧
The Wilderness is a region comprised of multiple locations in Chapter One of Baldur's Gate 3.
The Wilderness is a heavily forested area to the east of Baldur's Gate. A tribe of Goblins have made their home there, as well as several other types of monsters. Overgrown ruins can also be found here alongside several entrances to the Underdark.
It is the primary setting for the start of the game, and is visible on the map of the Over-world.
Access
