Through battle with him, and later exploring the Illithid colony under the stronghold, the party discovers there's something more perverse going on with the tadpoles in their heads. Ketheric's alliance with [[Enver Gortash]] and [[Orin the Red]] is also exposed, and in the process of the fight against him, it's revealed that [[Myrkul]] brought Ketheric back from the dead. With Thorm dead, the party now have one of the Netherese Crystals that power the trio, and the clues to their next destination: Baldur's Gate. | Through battle with him, and later exploring the Illithid colony under the stronghold, the party discovers there's something more perverse going on with the tadpoles in their heads.

== Gameplay == | |||
* Ketheric is an [[Undead]] that retains some features of his past life as a [[High Elf]] | |||
* In combat, he's most similar to an [[Oathbreaker]] [[Paladin|paladin]], able to cast a form of Smite with his attacks, as well as having access to Aura spells and able to raise Undead minions | |||
* Despite his status as a boss, Ketheric can still be disarmed, knocked prone or affected by other types of weapon abilities | |||
* True to his skill as a general, Ketheric commands his allies to focus their attacks on targets he deems especially dangerous via [[Deadly Orders]] | |||
* The outcome of the quests relating to the [[Nightsong]], as well as dialogue checks, can influence the encounters with him | |||
