Overview[edit | edit source]
Sorcerous Sundries is a large building in the heart of the Lower City. It is the main magic shop of Baldur's Gate. The party can visit its ground and first floors, and also its elaborate vault. Instead of the typical guards that are found through the city, Sorcerous Sundries is guarded by Animated Armours.
Access[edit | edit source]
Upon first visiting Sorcerous Sundries, 
Aradin can be found trying to access the building is blocked by 
Klank and, if spoken to, ultimately leaves in anger. If Aradin did not survive Act One, he will not be there and the party is greeted by Klank alone.
Locations[edit | edit source]
Ground floor[edit | edit source]
After entering the shop, the party is in a large open area serving as main hall. In the center of the room either 
Lorroakan's Projection, 
Rolan or 
Rolan's Projection functions as host and shopkeeper.
Going clockwise from the entrance, the party can visit:
- A
lava and 
water elemental - A Zombie being summoned by
Cordrane the Recent to be displayed to 
Alice Althea - A shop run by
Tolna Tome-Monger - An Alchemist's corner with
Lester Farrower
Tolna Tome-Monger[edit | edit source]
Inside Sorcerous Sundries Tolna Tome-Monger can be found at her shop at X: 8 Y: -92, where she sells scrolls and books. She can inform the party about the most rare ancient magical books owned by the Sorcerous Sundries including the 
The Annals of Karsus, a tome written by Karsus himself. However she refuses to sell or even show them, but tells the party that the books are stored in the Sorcerous Vault. If the interacting party member passes a persuasion check, she tells them the vault can be entered through her office.
First floor[edit | edit source]
Two stairs on the ground level lead up to the same point on the first floor. Upon entering for the first time the party encounters Lorroakan's Projection at X: 14 Y: -72. He informs them that "knowledge will determine your path forward." Four portals open, each accompanied by a plaque giving a different explanation of what the 
Nightsong is, only one of which is correct. The pale blue portal on the Northeast side, with the plaque that reads "The Nightsong is an immortal being, the child of a deity" transports the party to Ramazith's Tower, home of Lorroakan, while the others 
down and eject from the building whomever attempts to enter.
Tolna's office[edit | edit source]
Tolna's office is located on the north-east side of the building. To enter the office the party must acquire her key or pick the lock. Reading the 'Clasped Book' in the bookcase behind the entrance opens a portal to the vault. Casting 
Greater Invisibility or 
Fog Cloud is helpful in sneaking into the office undetected, and the door can be shut behind the party to avoid the armour noticing anything is amiss.
Side bedroom[edit | edit source]
A bedroom is located on the south-eastern side of the building. To enter the party must pick the lock of the door. Little inside is of note, save a few books: 
The Path to Karsus, 
The Apprentice's Companion, Book the First and 
Wizards of Note: Lorroakan (Editor's Edition).
Sorcerous Vault[edit | edit source]
The vault can be accessed in two ways: either directly through the portal in Tolna's office, or by going through the correct portal towards Ramazith's Tower and, once inside, jumping down or using the magically floating furniture to get to the middle floor. Once down, interacting with the button labelled 'Vault' transports the party to a hidden room in the north end of the vault.
Outside[edit | edit source]
Sorcerous Sundries is located next to a plaza to which several other stores are connected. In the middle of the plaza is a fountain on which edge 
Astoundo the Greater, 
Astoundo the Lesser and 
Salamander perform magic shows.

Bugs[edit | edit source]
- If Rolan is acting as a merchant when the party first enter Sorcerous Sundries, the uniquely named equipment items sold by him remain in his possession, even if Lorroakan's Projection takes over as a merchant after progressing Find the Nightsong, so it will not be possible to get them from Lorroakan's Projection. To get these items, they must be pickpocketed from Rolan or accessed via the Trade option available at the bottom left corner of the screen.
