'''Mystic Carrion''' is an [[Undead]] [[Mummy (race)|Mummy Lord]] in [[Baldur's Gate]]. He resides on the lower floor of [[Philgrave's Mansion]] and acts as a [[Trader]]. Several Ghouls roam the mansion as Mystic Carrion uses them for his dark work.


==Story==
== Involvement ==
Mystic Carrion is encountered by entering Philgrave's Mansion - either by lockpicking the stone wall, or using the hole in the wall {{Coords|29|-166}} to sneak in.  
Mystic Carrion is encountered by entering Philgrave's Mansion - either by detecting and lockpicking the stone wall {{Coords|-8|-158}}, destroying the stone wall, using the hole in the wall {{Coords|29|-166}} to sneak in, or by lockpicking the balcony entrance.


Carrion asks the party what they are doing because they do not have an appointment. He explains that he is a spirit medium who works with wealthy clients in the [[Upper City]]. Carrion believes the party is too poor to seek his services, but asking "Is there anything I can do for you?" will get his attention. He does indeed have a job - seeking out his lost servant, [[Thrumbo]].  
Carrion asks the party what they are doing because they do not have an appointment. He explains that he is a spirit medium who works with wealthy clients in the [[Upper City]]. Carrion believes the party is too poor to seek his services, but asking "Is there anything I can do for you?" will get his attention. He does indeed have a job - seeking out his lost servant, [[Thrumbo]].  


This starts the quest [[Find Mystic Carrion's Servant]].
This starts the quest [[Find Mystic Carrion's Servant]]. If the party chooses to ally with [[Thrumbo]] and destroy any of Mystic Carrion's organs, then he will become hostile and attack them as soon as they return to Philgrave's Mansion.


== Related Quests ==
If the party 'kills' Mystic Carrion before destroying {{RarityItem|Jar of Mystic Carrion's Heart}} and then takes a long rest, Carrion will resurrect himself, destroy [[Thrumbo]] and his friends, and hide his heart in the basement of Philgrave's Mansion.
 
If the player started the quest [[Search the Cellar]] and obtained or read [[Necromancy of Thay|The Necromancy of Thay]], Mystic Carrion offers his services of spirit channeling for 1500 gold. If accepted, the spirits tell of another book called [[The Tharchiate Codex]] located in [[Sorcerous Sundries]], which they claim is key to unlocking the power of The Necromancy of Thay.
 
== Organs ==
Mystic Carrion has hidden his organs in jars located around the [[Lower City]]. He possess powerful buffs as long as these jars remain intact.
* {{RarityItem|Jar of Mystic Carrion's Heart}}: Hidden inside Thrumbo's body
* {{RarityItem|Jar of Mystic Carrion's Brain}}: Hidden inside the [[Ancient Lair]]
* {{RarityItem|Jar of Mystic Carrion's Liver}}: Hidden inside the [[Ancient Lair]]
