Lower City
Elfsong Tavern Stormshore Tabernacle Basilisk Gate Barracks
Stormshore Tabernacle is a Location within the Lower City in Act Three of Baldur's Gate 3. It is found in the northeastern part of the Lower City, near the 'Basilisk Gate' waypoint.

Overview

Multiple altars sit in place of statues that hug the walls of the room. An altar to Selune, Mystra, and The Statue to the Gods are visible. The room is built from weathered white stone with ornate pillars and other decorative stone works. Stained glass windows let light in from the back of the tabernacle.

Areas

Tabernacle

Inside the party can make offerings to Deities#Helm Helm, Mystra Mystra, Selûne Selûne, or Tyr Tyr or various other deities at the Statue of the Gods in exchange for the condition: Anointed in Splendour Anointed in Splendour. The condition persists through resting [note 1]. Making an adequate donation earns the Inspirational Event Ordinary Practises in Extraodinary Times (Acolyte background).

The amount which has to be offered to receive the blessing depends on the level of the party and on the chosen difficulty. At level 1, 400 gp will grant the blessing and at level 11/12 it's 4500 gp, increasing to 5000 gp on Tactician difficulty. The offering is the same amount as needed to get a merchant to 100 Attitude as seen here. Asking Withers Withers to respec a character will reduce them to level 1 and cause them to be charged the minimum amount.

The blessing is only available to the character that made the offer. Each character can receive their own blessing, but they must make their own (separate) donations. Once a character makes a sufficient donation to receive a god's blessing, they cannot make donations to other deities.

If The Dark Urge is chosen as Origin, they can think of Bhaal Bhaal or make an offering of 1000 gp at the Statue of the Gods. However, Bhaal will not respond to an offering as paltry as this - he expects the world, and nothing less. Unlike other offerings, this offering cannot be retrieved from the offering chest in the basement. The Dark Urge may make offerings to other deities as normal, even if they made an offering to Bhaal, though Bhaal will remind them of their duty every time they beseech a blessing from another god.

Basement

The basement of the tabernacle can be accessed by unlocking the Ornate Wooden Hatch at X: 103 Y: -30.

Within the basement, there are several traps as well as a number of offering chests to various gods. Items donated by the party will also appear in the corresponding offering chest. Looting any of the items from the offering chests (including the items previously donated by the party) curses the offending character with Castigated By Divinity Castigated By Divinity. However, breaking the chests and looting the items from the floor will avoid the curse. Alternatively, you can drag the item(s) in the chest onto the floor to avoid the curse.

Seizing the offerings for the party grants the Inspirational Event Weak Gifts for Weak Beings (Haunted One background).

Castigated By Divinity Castigated By Divinity can removed with a Remove Curse spell, but that spawns a creature to fight. So it's best to save the citizens from panic and remove the curse while still in the basement.

Khalid's Gift makes Jaheira immune to curses, including Castigated By Divinity Castigated By Divinity, so while wearing it she can steal from any of the offering chests with no negative consequences other than Vicar Humbletoes refusing to talk or trade with her character anymore. Other party members can continue to trade with him without penalty.

If a party member breaks into the basement and opens the offering chests but steals the items by right clicking them and selecting Send to another party member, then the party member to whom it is sent is considered the thief and the recipient of the curse. The one opening the chest and sending the item does not get cursed. If they send them to Camp, or to Jaheira wearing Khalid's Gift, no one gets cursed.

Bugs

  1. Narrator still says the party members have to pray each day (after each long rest) to reapply Anointed in Splendour Anointed in Splendour, but since Patch 6 this is not necessary anymore as the blessing now persists after long rest.
