Interactions

Act 2 Spoilers! This section reveals details about the story of Baldur's Gate 3.

Nessa will try to lead the player into an ambush with Yurgir. If the player chooses (or pretends) to help Yurgir, Nessa can later be spoken to using  Speak with Animals. Investigating the spider carcass ( DC 14 Investigation check, then Arcana DC 16) in the room adjacent to Yurgir's reveals that Nessa has been charmed into being Yurgir's pet with succubus spittle. Using this information, she can be turned hostile against the player, Yurgir, and his legionnaires (Deception or Persuasion DC 16). Succeeding an additional check (Persuasion DC 30) will subdue her and turn her into an ally if you attack the fiends later on.
