Blaird is a high elf ranger and a member of the Harpers in Act Three. He joins Jaheira in the battle against the Dark Urge, should the latter choose to accept and embrace their heritage.

Involvement[edit | edit source]

Temple of Bhaal[edit | edit source]

Should the Dark Urge defeat Orin Orin the Red and embrace Bhaal's gift, becoming the latter's Chosen, the Harpers will set up an ambush at the entrance of the Temple of Bhaal, provided Jaheira Jaheira is alive.

Led by Jaheira and accompanied by Minsc Minsc (if rescued), the Harpers will stand guard on the bridge leading out of the temple, preventing the party from leaving. The party will then have a brief exchange with Jaheira concerning the Dark Urge's role as the Chosen of Bhaal, and should Minsc be present, have the ability to psionically control him into stabbing Jaheira in the back through his Mind Flayer Tadpole. Doing so will immediately kill Jaheira, and trigger combat with Minsc, Blaird, and the rest of the Harpers.

  • [WISDOM] Ease his confusion. Try to control him. (DC 25)

Alternatively, if the Dark Urge withdraws from Minsc's mind, Jaheira can potentially convince Gale Gale (if under 20 approval), Karlach Karlach (if under 40 approval), or Wyll Wyll (always) to turn their side, forcing the party to kill them in the ensuing fight with the Harpers.
