Mizora Cambion Model.png

Mizora is a Cambion in service of the Archdevil Zariel, as well as Wyll's infernal patron. She plays an important role in Wyll's backstory, as well as his character arc throughout the game. Manipulative, mischievous and always looking to get the best out of her deals, she may be an asset or and adversary for the party, but she will always look out for her and Zariel's best interests.

Ignorant thing. It's always the terms and conditions that get you.
— Mizora

Background

Best described as a sadistic infernal lawyer, Mizora is one of Zariel's most important allies. As Wyll's patron, she is directly related to his fate throughout the game, and the party has to deal with her whether they like it or not. Initially kept a secret by Wyll due to pact clauses, Mizora is the source of his powers and the reason why he was cast out from Baldur's Gate following young Ravengard's massacre of Tiamat cultists. Ever since, she's kept Wyll on a leash, using him for her own wicked interests.

Throughout the game, the party has to interact with Mizora, and depending on the choices made, they can have good, neutral or very bad outcomes. Should Wyll follow Mizora's demands to the letter, she will reward him generously; should he be defiant instead, she'll castigate Wyll, though often applauding his spine.

Ultimately, her fate is intertwined with Wyll's. If rescued from the Mind Flayer Colony, she'll reward Wyll and be open to break the contract earlier than expected not long afterwards, becoming a powerful ally. If left to die, or killed altogether, she'll take Wyll back to Avernus as well, forever sealing his fate.

Gameplay

  • Mizora is a Cambion, a half-mortal, half-fiend creature
  • In combat, she functions essentially as a Sorcerer
  • She is Wyll's patron, as such, her fate is intertwined with his
  • Due to her importance to Zariel as an infernal lawyer, she doesn't engage in combat and is essentially unkillable thanks to Zariel's Protection

Quests

Encounters

Throughout the game, the party will encounter Mizora a few times.

Act 1

Mizora appears at camp to either punish or reward Wyll, depending on whether Karlach was killed or recruited.

  • Rewards Infernal Robe if Karlach was killed, otherwise punishes Wyll.

Act 2

Appears before Wyll, giving him orders to rescue Zariel's asset from the Illithid colony below Moonrise Towers.

  • The asset is revealed to be none other than Mizora herself. If you choose to rescue her, and pass a persuasion check, she gifts the player the Infernal Rapier.
  • If the player chooses to kill Mizora while she is in the Mindflayer Pod, Wyll will die as well.

Act 3

Mizora has a much bigger role in Act 3, and taunts Wyll about the fate of his father, Duke Ulder Ravengard.

Wyll's pact

When he was seventeen, Wyll encountered Tiamat cultists in the outskirts of Baldur's Gate, ready to summon the tyrannical dragon goddess to the plane. Eager to stop them, but young and powerless against many armed cultists, Wyll's desperation attracted Mizora who offered him a solution: her powers in exchange of servitude. Wyll didn't hesitate, and together they made quick work of the cult, however, young Ravengard would soon realize the cost of dealing with devils, as one of the many clauses of the pact prevented him from disclosing what happened that night.

When his father, Ulder Ravengard, returned from Elturel to find his son accompanied by a devil, he demanded an explanation, yet Wyll's tongue was unable to explain what happened, and the scene of the ordeal was conveniently cleaned up. With cold disappointment, his father cast him out from the city, forever exiled to the frontiers.

At the end of Act Two, Mizora will lift Wyll's inability to speak about their pact, allowing him to explain himself to the player as they progress through his story. He will tell the player the entire truth once they encounter Ulder Ravengard at Wyrm's Rock Fortress.

Concentration Icons.png Spoiler warning! This section reveals Wyll's pact clauses

Some of the clauses are revealed by Mizora throughout the game:

  • Clause F § 9: 'Soul-binder shall bestow reward or favour only upon soul-bearer's fulfillment of related obligation.'
  • Clause G § 9: 'Targets shall be limited to the infernal, the demonic, the heartless, and the soulless.'
  • Clause Z § 13: 'Should the promised soul refuse obeyance or neglect duty, the pact-holder shall cast the promised in Avernus as a lemure.'
  • Clause Z § 13: 'If the soul-binder consents to separation, she will release the soul-bearer from all obligation within six months.'
  • Addendum F: 'The Absolute must be avenged for the soul-binder's detention at Moonrise. The soul-bearer retains his gifts until such time as the Absolute is slain.'

Combat

Loot

Notes

  • Mizora will still grant Wyll his demonic powers even if the contract between them is ended, so long as he avenges her for being captured by the Cult of the Absolute
  • Zariel's Protection makes Mizora functionally unkillable. Any damage she takes is reduced to 0 and she will immediately disappear. Bleed-over-time effects will result in Mizora disappearing and reappearing until the effect ends.
