More actions
Gale can be romanced.
Act 1
As early as Act One, with medium approval, the player can trigger a scene with Gale where he invites the player to experience the Weave with him. The player will then need to pass three skill checks (all DC 5):
- Sleight of Hand / Arcana / Performance - to imitate the gesture
- Intelligence / Arcana / Performance - to repeat the words
- History / Nature / Insight / Performance - to picture the concept of harmony in your mind
- *Magic-users such as sorcerers and clerics will have class-specific options to bypass the checks
- If the player successfully passes all three checks and chooses to hold onto the moment, they will be given several options to "imagine their desire, and Gale will know it." Picturing kissing him or holding his hand will start his romance.
Act 2
Going into Act Two, the player will likely run into the wizard Elminster on the path to the Shadow-Cursed Lands via the Mountain Pass . He reveals an important update involving Gale's relationship with Mystra, who has one last favor to ask of him. This will impact much of the player character's interactions with Gale moving forward.
Sometime in Act 2, with high enough approval and following the Marcus fight at Last Light Inn, Gale will tell you about a book he read that explains how dangerous situations can have an effect on one's desire for other forms of stimulation. He will ask if you've ever read anything on the subject. The player can choose to change the subject, or answer with any of the other options. If the latter, Gale will approve and confess that he wants you, but say now is not the time or place for such feelings.
