=== Background ===
Minthara is a member of House Baenre, and a True Soul and leader of the cult of the Absolute. She and her fellow cultists, [[Gut]] and [[Dror Ragzlin]], set up a base of operations in an old Selûnite temple in the wilderness, in search for a mysterious artefact by order of the Absolute.  


Despite her apparent devotion, a player who romances her can find that she has doubts regarding the Absolute and its actions.

Act One

Minthara is first found at the Goblin Camp, planning an attack on Emerald Grove. The player can choose to help her raid the Emerald Grove, but helping her in this instance is not required for recruitment. However, defeating her during "Defeat the Goblins" – whether by killing her or by knocking her out – will prevent her from appearing again.

Note that raiding the Grove with Minthara will cause Karlach and Wyll to permanently leave the player's party.

Afterwards, she can be found in the Moonrise Prison. If the player helps her escape, she will visit the player's camp and ask to join their party.

Dead

If the player allows Balthazar to take the Nightsong, he will be tasked with abducting Isobel. Letting her get killed or knocked out will grant the player an audience with Ketheric Thorm who will allow the player to pray at the altar of the Absolute. Doing so will result in the player being imprisoned in a pod in the Mind Flayer Colony where Balthazar will try to recycle the player and his party into zombies. In the fight that ensues the player will find Zombie Dror Ragzlin (unless he survived Act One) and Zombie Minthara (if she died in Act One or if the player didn't rescue her from her prison in Act Two).
