Lord Amber's Bodyguard is a half-elven monk who accompanies his master to the ceremony of ordaining

Enver Gortash as an Archduke of Baldur's Gate in Act Three.

“

Hells' hallows - the ceremony's gone on for days, seems like.

— Lord Amber's Bodyguard

Involvement[edit | edit source]

Lord Amber's Bodyguard can be found at the mess hall, at the first floor of the Wyrm's Rock Fortress. He came with his master, Lord Petric Amber, and while waiting for his lord to descend from Audience Hall, spends time chatting with retinue members of other patriars.

If spoken to for the first time, he discusses the Steel Watch with Lord Shattershield's Attendant and Lady Durinbold's Attendant, and the three ask the party's opinion on these automatons. He doubts other two's surety in usefulness of the constructs, explaining the unease he feels while close to them.

If spoken to afterwards, he complains that the ceremony is still going on, as it has been for several days now.

If confronting Gortash, Lord Amber's Bodyguard can be found along with all other invited guests and their retinue slaughtered in the Audience hall.
