Ikaron
“Child, you promised to stop stealing. You disgrace us all. Give it back.„
Involvement[edit | edit source]
Act One[edit | edit source]
Ikaron is usually patrolling The Hollow. When Meli steals Barth's locket, the party can try to resolve their conflict peacefully or allow Barth to strike the child. If Barth is violent toward Meli, Ikaron intervenes.
If angering Mol in any way, Ikaron confronts the party about "threatening children".
If travelling to the Rosymorn Monastery Trail or the Shadow-Cursed Lands before resolving Kagha's ritual the Rite of Thorns, the tieflings are expelled from the Grove and Ikaron's corpse can be found among the pile of refugees near the bridge to the Blighted Village.
In the event that Minthara and her raiding party is primed to assault the Emerald Grove, Ikaron guards and protect the rest of the non-fighting tieflings sheltered in the Secluded Chamber. After the raid or the goblins from the Goblin Camp are defeated and the tieflings are prepared to leave, Ikaron attends the celebration at the Campsite but broods from a distance. He is annoyed that the others are celebrating instead of grieving their fallen comrades. If the player character passes a 
Charisma check, he can be persuaded to join the celebration.
Act Two[edit | edit source]
If Ikaron survives the events at the Emerald Grove, his body can be found in the Shadow-Cursed Lands X: -9 Y: 54 among the tiefling refugees that did not make it to the Last Light Inn.

Idle banter[edit | edit source]
Ikaron has several pieces of idle banter with his mother Okta:
- Okta
- There's barely any rations left.
- Ikaron
- We'll make it last. We always do.
- Okta
- I can't thin the broth much more than this.
- Ikaron
- It'll have to do.
- Okta
- If I'd known they were leaving, I would have given them an extra helping.
- Ikaron
- They're cowards, mother. You don't owe them anything.
- Okta
- But can you really blame them? After Elturel...
- Ikaron
- We can't run forever. I'd rather stand and fight.
If the Emerald Grove is assaulted, Okta can be seen huddling with Bex, Danis, and Ikaron:
- Okta
- So you have experience treating the wounded?
- Bex
- Well... not exactly.
- Okta
- Just good with a needle and thread?
- Bex
- Sure. Were you a cook in Elturel?
- Okta
- You've had my food, right? Answer's in the gruel.
- Ikaron
- Look on the bright side, mother - should be fewer mouths to feed after today.
- Okta
- Ikaron, please.
- Bex
- Danis can hunt! Sharp as an elf with that bow, aren't you love?
- Danis
- Well. In a pinch.
- Ikaron
- Then why aren't you on the wall?
- Danis
- Rabbits don't shoot back, do they?
- Danis
- Would you... like to pray, or something?
- Ikaron
- No.
- Danis
- Right. Silence it is.
If the tieflings prepare to leave for Baldur's Gate, Okta continues talking to Ikaron:
- Okta
- Do you need help, Ikaron?
- Ikaron
- Nn-! No. I've got it!
- Okta
- Don't be breaking your back before we get to Baldur's Gate.
- Ikaron
- I won't. I'm not ten anymore.
- Okta
- Don't I know it. But there's two more boxes after this one.
- Ikaron
- Ugh.
- Okta
- What do you think of opening a cart in Baldur's Gate?
- Ikaron
- A cart? Like on the street?
- Okta
- Exactly. Noble types won't want a tiefling cookin' for them, but common folk...
- Ikaron
- A cart sounds fine, but do I have to haul it around?
- Okta
- Until we make the coin for a proper ox, maybe.
- Ikaron
- *Sigh.*
- Ikaron
- Do you think we'll stay in Baldur's Gate long?
- Okta
- Of course. It's a big city, lots of opportunity.
- Ikaron
- But Elturel...
- Okta
- Don't let that place cast a shadow on your head forever.
- Ikaron
- I guess things are already better. I've learned a lot.
- Okta
- There we go, boy. Now back to packing.
During the camp celebration, Ikaron may talk to Rhy:
- Ikaron
- How many of those have you had?
- Rhy
- Who's counting? It's a celebration!
- Ikaron
- It's a wake.
- Rhy
- Don't you think we owe the dead a pint or two?
- Ikaron
- I think you just want an excuse to drink.
- Rhy
- You could stand to relax a bit, mate.
- Ikaron
- I am relaxed.
- Rhy
- You're tense as a bowstring.
- Rhy
- I see the problem - you don't have a drink!
- Rhy
- Here, take mine.
- Ikaron
- I'd rather keep my wits about me, thanks.
- Rhy
- Don't you think we owe the dead a pint or two?
- Ikaron
- I think you just want an excuse to drink.
If Ikaron was convinced to drink, his idle banter changes:
- Rhy
- Did I see you drinking ale?
- Ikaron
- It was just the one.
- Ikaron
- And no, I don't want another.
- Rhy
- Could be ale's just not your drink.
- Rhy
- Someone, wine! Quick!
- Ikaron
- No wine! The ale was more than enough.
- Rhy
- Your cheeks are looking a bit pinker than usual.
- Ikaron
- Are they? Oh, gods.
- Rhy
- All it took was one! I'm jealous.
- Rhy
- Here's to us!
- Ikaron
- That was so loud.
- Rhy
- Oh. Was it?
