Geraldus: Difference between revisions

After rumors of [[Bhaal|Bhaalist activity]] surfaced in [[Baldur's Gate]], Jaheira ordered her Harpers to look into the machinations of the Cult of Bhaal, letting them uncover as much information as possible while she led another force of Harpers into the [[Shadow-Cursed Lands]] to defeat [[Ketheric Thorm]]. However, as Jaheira ordered the Harpers to concentrate their efforts in finding the [[Minsc|Rashemaar]], Geraldus' Harper cell was killed or captured by Bhaalist [[doppelganger|doppelgangers]], only to be brought to [[Orin]].

While in [[Wyrm's Crossing]] with Jaheira, she will point out Danthelon's Dancing Axe, a store run by [[Entharl Danthelon]], and front for a Harper safe house. After Jaheira speaks with Entharl, he will give the player the key to a secret room beneath the store, where Geraldus and a group of impersonated [[Harpers]] are waiting to give Jaheira new information from their scouting.

Once below, Geraldus will greet the party, saying "May [[Selûne|Selûne's]] Tears shine on this meeting." Jaheira will immediately recognise the old Harper code, and try to communicate to the player that the Harpers present are traitors. Attacking the Harpers will reveal all but Geraldus to be Bhaalist doppelgangers, their originals murdered, and Geraldus left alive as bait.

Geraldus will explain the situation; the Harpers were searching for [[Bhaal|cultists]] in the city, and all was quiet until they began asking after the Rashemaar on Jaheira's latest orders. The cult struck during the night, capturing the others and bringing them back to Orin.
