Hah - I'll be fired for this. No loss, considering I was quitting. Maybe this is a push from the gods.

— Anderson, upon finding that Florrick's body is gone

Involvement

Anderson is standing at the gallows outside of the Basilisk Gate Barracks. He only appears in the game if  Councillor Florrick is executed. He and  Fist Williams are tasked with guarding Florrick's body as a measure of increased security.

Unlike Williams, Anderson clearly does not approve Florrick's execution, and claims that she did not deserve such an end. He is surprised if the party manage to steal the counsellor's body, but reacts much calmer than his fellow Fist, taking his omission as a sign of fate.

Anderson is one of two  halfling members of the Flaming Fist who might be encountered throughout the game. The other one is  Fist Fernhollow, who can be encountered guarding Audience Hall in Wyrm's Rock Fortress at the ceremony of  Enver Gortash being ordained as an Archduke of Baldur's Gate.
