168澳洲幸运5开奖网:Baldur's Gate 3 continues 🎉to tell stories in a continuity established by the first two games, so it's no surprise that we'd see some of the same characters ❀returning. Even though the story we play takes place over a century after Baldur's Gate 2, the magic of the world makes these appearances possible.

In fact, some of the characters on this list are well-known outside the games and popular in the 168澳洲幸运5开奖网:Dungeons and Dragons setting they take place in. So if you're new to the game series, d♓on't worry. Here are all the returning character♕s you might have missed.

6 Jaheria

Potential Companion in 1 & 2

If Jaheria's very cool reveal at Last Light Inn didn't cue y✱ou in that she was someone important to the world, don't worry. She's returning from the first two games to continue her legacy as a Harper. She's recruited in Baldur's Gate 1, alongside her husband Khalid, in the fight against the game's antagonist, Sarevok. Already a H﷽arper during her first appearance, she's an old friend of the protagonist's foster father, Gorion, whose death incites the adventure you go on.

She's also a potenti❀al companion in Baldur's Gate 2, with you from the start of the game, since both games revolve around the same party of adventurers. The game opens with both of you imprisoned by the same Elven mag🌠e. Since her husband was killed by that mage, she's also romanceable. In Baldur's Gate 3, you can also learn more about her past by finding her foster kids in Act 3.

5 ꦡ Elmister Aumar ꦫ

A Mysterious, Yet Helpful, Visitor In 1 & 2

ওAn important character in the Forgotten Realms campaign setting for Dungeons and Dragons, where all the Baldur's Gate games take place, it's no surprise we see Elminster pop up here and there. In Baldur's Gate 3, he shows up to deliver news from the goddess Mystra to Gale. In the first game, he does much the same, showing up in the game multiple times to give the player hints or advice. At first, he pretends to be an old man, but his true෴ identity is revealed in the course of your adventure.

He's more difficult to come by in Baldur's Gate 2, appearing in Jaheria's personal quest. He shows up once after she quits the Harpers to ask if that's the right path for her. In this appearance, he's using a fake name, "Terminsel," the reasons unknown.ꦦ But who are we to question the ways of the🌊 most famous wizard in all the land?

4 🐼 🃏 Volothamp Geddarm

An NPC Full Of Information

Volo is the fi♏ctional author of real-world guidebooks for the 🧸universe of the Forgotten Realms. He's an unreliable narrator, often correc𒉰ted by the in-text citations and footnotes of his editor, Elminster. While he's also a wizard, Volo is not known for his great feats but for his many misadventures ꦆin looking for new things to write about. In the first game, he's an NPC found in a tavern who can give your party useful information about your quests.

In Baldur's Gate 2, he can again be found in a tavern, where he tells you how he'll describe each of your companions in t꧃he book he's writing. As a fun additional feature, the print guides for both games also feature his annotations. His role in Baldur's Gate 3 is his most 𒅌involved in the games so far, but, based on his dialogue in the previous two games, it's no wonder we couldn't trust him with our eyeballs.

3 Minsc & Boo ꦏ

Another Potential Companion In 1 & 2

Minsc and Boo actually have a smaller role than they do in the first two games, o෴nly able to be recruited in Act 3 if you have Jaheria with you. In the first game, you meet him on his dejemma, a ritual journey to adulthood, while playing bodyguard to a young woman named Dynaheir. They both join your party at the same ꧂time, along with Boo, a "miniature spꦰace hamster" he's met on his journey.

Like Jaheriaꦗ, Minsc and Boo are imprisoned alongside your character at the s🥂tart of the second game, and, also like Jaheria, this is where Minsc loses his companion from the first game, leaving only him.

A fun fact for those who don't know: his hamster is a 168澳洲幸运5开奖网:Mass Effect reference, including the line about "going for tꦡhe eyes."

2 ✤ Sarevok Anchev

Baldur's Gate 1's Primary Antagonist

Like the protagonist of Baldur's Gate 1, Sarvok is a Bhaalspawn, a child of the God of murder, Bhaal. Adopted by the merchant organization called the Iron Throne, he uses it as a starting place to🌜 create a criminal organiz✨ation and start a war. His goal is to create as much murder as possible to take over for Bhaal.

In the second game, he appears as a wraith to test the protagonist. And in the expansion for the second game, Throne of Bhaal, you're able to recruit him to be a companion. You can even attempt to shift his alignment from an evil one. Technically, though, Sar🧸evok isn't the only recurring character in his Baldur's Gate 3 scene. All of his echos are also: Amelyssan, Sendai, Abazigal, and Illasera were all antagonists in Throne of Bhaal.

1 Viconia DeVir 🎉

1 & 2's Evil Companion

If you don't recognize this name from your playthrough, Viconia DeVir is the Drow Mother Superior in the Sharran Ruins under the House of Grief in Act 3. In the first game, she was a possible companion, found being held on the charge of murdering a family. If the party's reputation gets too high, she'll leave due to her evil alignment, making her a better companion for evil runs, 168澳洲幸运5开奖网:like Minthara in Baldur's Gate 3.

Baldur's Gate 2 sees her in need of rescue again, this time from being burned at the stake, and she can be recruited as a companion. In bothไ games, she's romanceable, but only in the second game can her alignment be changed via the romantic route.
