Haarlep is an incubus that can be found on Raphael's bed in the [[House of Hope]]. Sent by [[Mephistopheles]] to distract his naughty son, he serve as the devil's main sexual partner, indulging him in his fantasies.
Haarlep was sent by {{CharLink|Mephistopheles|icon=Prologue.webp}} to distract his naughty son Raphael, they serve as the devil's main sexual partner, indulging him in his fantasies.
 
True to their devil nature, Haarlep will quickly spot any trespassers and see through any form of deception. He will quickly ascertain the situation and offer the party the information they seek, in exchange for a brief sexual encounter. If the offer is accepted, and Haarlep has his way with one party member, they will reward them. If, during the encounter, the party member resists, or the invitation is turned down outright, Haarlep will fight them instead. [[Speak with Dead]] can then be used to acquire the information that Haarlep offered.
 
===Gameplay===
* Haarlep is a level 9 [https://forgottenrealms.fandom.com/wiki/Succubus Incubus]
* He appears only in Act 3 of the game in the House of Hope
* Haarlep can have a sexual encounter with a party member or be fought for his items
* In combat, he behave similarly to regular [[Cambion|Cambions]], though he is unarmed

Haarlep can be found on Raphael's bed in his boudoir. When approached, He will inquire as to what the party is doing. Any form of deception is quickly seen through, and the party must be honest or otherwise Haarlep will become irritated and start a fight.

Intrigued, Haarlep will offer valuable information that will aid the party on one condition: one of them must "play" with Haarlep. If the invitation is accepted, Haarlep will command them to undress and lay on the bed. Before continuing, Haarlep will ask whether you prefer their male or female form (responding that it doesn't matter causes them to stay in the feminine form).

Before continuing, Haarlep asks whether the talking party member prefers their male or female form (responding that it does not matter causes them to stay in the feminine form).


With the party member on the bed, Haarlep then initiates sex with them. The party member can either surrender to Haarlep or resist via a {{Ability check|Wisdom|18}} or {{Ability check|Performance|18}}. Even with a success, Haarlep's charm is too much and the party member must choose: surrender or fight. If they choose the latter, Haarlep will be disappointed and commence the fight. If surrendered, Haarlep will continue to have their way with the party member and attempt to make them theirs.

If surrendered, Haarlep continues to have their way with the party member and attempts to make them theirs.  


The party member is now presented with a final choice. They can surrender their body, but not their mind, in which case Haarlep will continue. Haarlep will then invite the party member to surrender their body one last time: if rejected, a fight ensues; if accepted, Haarlep will finish and assume the party member's form, adding their likeness to their shapeshifting repertoire. As thanks, Haarlep will provide [[Key From Raphael's Safe]], letting the party know that Raphael's secret safe is behind the painting of himself. Haarlep will then depart, informing the party member that from then on, they will periodically be able to feel it when Haarlep sleeps with others using their likeness.

Sleeping with Haarlep does not have any negative repercussions on any current romance.

Overview

Background

Haarlep was sent by Mephistopheles Mephistopheles to distract his naughty son Raphael, they serve as the devil's main sexual partner, indulging him in his fantasies.

Involvement

Act Three

Haarlep can be found on Raphael's bed in his boudoir. When approached, He inquires as to what the party is doing. Any form of deception is quickly seen through, and the party must be honest or otherwise Haarlep becomes irritated and starts a fight.

Intrigued, Haarlep offers valuable information on one condition: one of the party members must "play" with Haarlep. If the invitation is accepted, Haarlep commands them to undress and lay on the bed. Before continuing, Haarlep asks whether the talking party member prefers their male or female form (responding that it does not matter causes them to stay in the feminine form).

With the party member on the bed, Haarlep then initiates sex with them. The party member can either surrender to Haarlep or resist via a DC 18 Wisdom check or DC 18 Performance check. Even with a success, Haarlep's charm is too much and the party member must choose: surrender or fight. If they choose the latter, Haarlep is disappointed and commences the fight. If surrendered, Haarlep continues to have their way with the party member and attempts to make them theirs.

The party member is now presented with a final choice. They can surrender their body, but not their mind, in which case Haarlep continues. Haarlep then invites the party member to surrender their body one last time: if rejected, a fight ensues. If accepted, Haarlep finishes and assume the party member's form, adding their likeness to their shapeshifting repertoire. As thanks, Haarlep provides Key From Raphael's Safe, letting the party know that Raphael's secret safe is behind the painting of himself. Haarlep then departs, informing the party member that from then on, they will periodically be able to feel it when Haarlep sleeps with others using their likeness.

Alternatively, the party member may surrender their body and soul, in which case Haarlep will consume their soul, resulting in a game over if the character was the main character.

Finally, the party member may resist via a successful DC 25 Constitution check, in which case they throw Haarlep off them and begin a fight.

If Haarlep is killed, they can be spoken to with Speak with Dead Speak with Dead. Haarlep reveals to them that the safe containing the information they seek is in a safe behind Raphael's "vanity", which is the painting on the leftside of Raphael's bed. The Key From Raphael's Safe can be looted from Haarlep's body to open the safe.

Sleeping with Haarlep does not have any negative repercussions on any current romance. However, it locks the party out of gaining the Helldusk Gloves, and potentially gains the party a humorous line at the end of the House of Hope; if asking Haarlep if Raphael is any good in bed, a mocking response is available when Raphael asks if the party have any last words.

Notes

  1. ↑ The name "Haarlep" is an anagram of Raphael.
  2. ↑ Though in-game dialogue refers to Haarlep as male and as an incubus, it is never explicitly stated by them what their preference is. Game files alternate between using "he/him" and "they/them" for Haarlep as well and there are also entries in the game files for Haarlep as a succubus and female. And given that in Forgotten Realms lore it is not clear if incubi and succubi are a separate beings, who can change their sex at will, or if they are two forms of the same being, this article uses "they/them" to refer to Haarlep.
  3. ↑ Wiktoria Kubien, who designed most of Haarlep's appearance and clothing, refers to them as "Incubus/Succubus" and uses the pronoun "they". (source)
