Darkmaw the Wicked is a taxidermied bear in the foyer of Last Light Inn during Act Two.

The bear's limbs look like they were broken to fit this pose - its eyes sad and lifeless.

Involvement

Act Two

Interacting with the bear prompts a passive DC 14 Nature check. Depending on the outcome, each party member has a different response.

If failing the DC 14 Nature check:

• What a vicious looking creature. I swear its eyes are following me.
• [ASTARION] Ferocious-looking beast. Although your stuffing might be leaking...
• [GALE] Impressive specimen. Better off stuffed than stalking me, I daresay.
• [KARLACH] I'm watching you, buddy.
• [LAEZEL] I suppose this stuffed beast is some kind of trophy. Well - I'm not impressed.
• [SHADOWHEART] Look at the size of that thing. It could eat a person whole - or a double portion of children.
• [WYLL] Adorable. Vicious, but adorable.

If passing the DC 14 Nature check:

• Is that Darkmaw the Wicked? I don't believe it. His territory ran from the Wood of Sharp Teeth to Cloakwood. It took half an army to drive him out. How did he end up here?
• [ASTARION] Wait, that bear - Darkmaw the Wicked? The Terror of Cloakwood? You stole away more children than any vampire. And look at you now...
• [GALE] Believe it or not, but I know that stuffed bear. Darkmaw the Wicked. He terrorised everyone and everything between the woods of Cloak and Sharp Teeth. Odd place for him to end up, this.
• [KARLACH] Darkmaw the Wicked! Legendary king of the forest. Legend has it his kingdom ran from the Wood of Sharp Teeth to Cloak Wood. How'd he end up here?
• [LAEZEL] Darkmaw the Wicked. The tale is known even to the githyanki. It's said that it took five-hundred warriors to drive him from his lands. Chk - I thought he'd be bigger.
• [SHADOWHEART] That's Darkmaw the Wicked! Imagine meeting him in the flesh - or rather, in the hide and stuffing. Everything from the Wood of Sharp Teeth to Cloakwood was his hunting ground, until a small army rallied to take him down.
• [WYLL] Darkmaw the Wicked, straight from the storybooks. It took a veritable army to run him from the Wood of Sharp Teeth. Who in the hells brought him here?
