Golbraith Stredivas is a human who can be found on the first floor of his house in the Lower City. He is loosely based on a fan of Baldur's Gate 3, who had been diagnosed with Alzheimer's.[url 1][url 2]

Background

Golbraith is a retired mind flayer hunter, and leading expert mind flayers and counter-illithid strategies. He is currently dedicating his time to tracking those that have infiltrated the city, having passed the mantle and illithid-hunting responsibilities down to his son.

Interactions

Golbraith is found on the first floor of his home, a building north of The Blushing Mermaid X: -148 Y: -60. If the player reassures him that they know how to deal with mind flayers, he will give them a shield originally gifted to him by Abdel Adrian, Abdel's Trusted Shield.[note 1]

There is also a locked chest on the first floor with some (not-detailed) correspondence between him and his son, and a book inside a chest in the heavily-trapped basement titled Confidant of a Duke, which recounts his first encounter with Abdel on the Elfsong's terrace.

Golbraith's mail box also has a letter from The Lodge, asking for a consult on illithids, and some fanmail from someone who used his techniques to best an illithid.

Notable loot

Footnotes
