Bernard is the construct guardian of the Arcane Tower in the Underdark.
Chapter One
Created by the former resident of the tower, Lenore, Bernard guards the Arcane Tower. It is located on the top level of the tower and wields the 
Light of Creation.
Bernard speaks only in poetry. If the player has read the book, The Roads of Darkness on a desk in the Arcane Tower upper floor, they will have the option to respond in kind with "Or art though friend, a rescue from my lonely wake?". Responding in any other way will cause Bernard to immediately become hostile and attack.
If the player replies to Bernard with the appropriate line from the play, it will acknowledge them as its master. The player can then speak additional lines from the play to cause Bernard to take certain actions:
Commands
| Line | Action | Required Book |
|---|---|---|
| "How can I trust? How will I ever know? / How can I show myself, my darkest me?" | Bernard will place  Guiding Light on a table.
|
Threadbare Book (lower floor) |
| "These empty sheets are all that's left on you. / The last of all the thoughtless gifts you gave." | Bernard will give the player a  Potion of Greater Healing.
|
Patched Parchment (table next to Bernard, top floor) |
| "There is a light in every living thing. / It's crawling t'wards the surface to survive." | Bernard and the nearby Animated Armours become hostile and attack. | Dusty Book (ground floor) |
| "The silence stretches on - I'm all alone. / Please, can I hold your hands, for just a while?" | Bernard will hug the player and reassure them. It speaks as if the player is Lenore. | Torn-out paper (upper floor) |
