General '''Ketheric Thorm''' | {{SpoilerWarning|act=2}} | ||
General '''Ketheric Thorm''' is one of the Chosen of the [[Absolute]], the enigmatic [[Cult of the Absolute|cult]] taking over the Sword Coast, and serves as one of the main antagonists in [[Baldur's Gate 3]]. Once the governor of [[Reithwin Town]], personal disaster and grief drove him down the path of darkness and violence, eventually being defeated in battle a century ago by the combined forces of the [[Harpers]] and druids of the [[Emerald Grove]]. Now, risen from the grave to lead the Absolute's forces as their general, he seeks to destroy [[Baldur's Gate]] and spread the cult of the Absolute. | |||

Ketheric Thorm was once a worshipper of [[Deities#Selûne|Selûne]], who lived with his wife and daughter. His wife unfortunately passed away, leaving Ketheric to raise their daughter alone. However, he persevered and raised her in the Selunite ways. Tragedy would strike again at Ketheric, as his daughter [[Isobel]] died. Unable to cope with her loss, he renounced the worship of the Moonmaiden and began worshipping her dark sister; [[Shar]]. In Shar's service, he built an army of Dark Justiciars beneath his home village and cursed the land with the [[Shadow Curse]]. His army was ultimately defeated, and Ketheric himself was slain by the alliance of the [[Harpers]] and Druids which [[Jaheira]] and Master [[Halsin]] were part of. His body was buried in the Thorm family mausoleum. | Ketheric Thorm was once a worshipper of [[Deities#Selûne|Selûne]], who lived with his wife and daughter.
