Involvement[edit section | visual editor]

Act Three[edit section | visual editor]

Lumbar is near the Basilisk Gate Barracks in Baldur's Gate, being punched by  'Logs' Odoolan. After Odoolan leaves, Lumbar can be spoken with. He offers to let the talking party member punch him for a small gold fee.

If the party already started ⁠Find Mystic Carrion's Servant and knows Lumbar is one of the zombies, one of them can ask him where  Thrumbo is:

^[2]

[DECEPTION] Carrion means Thrumbo no harm. He sent me with provisions for his journey. (DC 18) (if not a Rogue)
[ROGUE] [DECEPTION] Relax, the boss just wanted to give you and Thrumbo a proper send off. Does you need anything? (DC 18)
[INTIMIDATION] Either you tell me where Thrumbo is, or I drive my fist through your skull. (DC 18) (if not a Cleric or Paladin)
[PALADIN] [CLERIC] [INTIMIDATION] Unless you want me to purge this realm of you and your undead brothers, you'll talk. (DC 18 )
[PERSUASION] Tell me where Thrumbo is, and it'll be like we never met. (DC 18)

Idle banter[edit section | visual editor]

^[3]

'Logs' Odoolan
You really won't feel it? (Before punching Lumbar)
Strange Beggar Lumbar
Not a thing. Don't hold back.
'Logs' Odoolan
Brace yourself...

^[4]

'Logs' Odoolan
That felt great. (After punching Lumbar)
Strange Beggar Lumbar
You're very welcome, sir.
