Party Banter

Karlach and Astarion

• Karlach: Hahaha. Ha!
• Astarion: What's so funny? You haven't got some laughing curse, have you?
• Karlach: I really made it out of Avernus. It's incredible.
• Astarion: All right, just keep it down. We're conspicuous enough without your hyena call.

---

(At Grymforge)

• Karlach: Ho. He-llo! Hey!
• Astarion: So... are you greeting invisible beings or just losing your mind?
• Karlach: The echoes - listen! They're coming from three directions!
• Astarion: Losing your mind it is! Probably the tadpole - the weirdest things seems to be...

---

• Karlach: Nice to be in a crowd of normal people for once.
• Astarion: Really? I prefer my company extraordinary.
• Karlach: Aww, thanks.
• Astarion: Don't thank me, thank Gortash.
• Karlach: Excuse you. I didn't need that prick to make me who I am.
• Astarion: You're right, of course. Forgive me.
• Karlach: All good, fangs.

---

(At Grey Harbour Docks)

• Karlach: Can you swim, Astarion?
• Astarion: I'm... not sure, honestly.
• Astarion: It's been a couple of hundred years.
• Karlach: You're missing out! Loved it as a kid. This water looks nasty as hell though.
• Astarion: Well, it's not called 'Grey Harbor' for nothing.

---

(At Felogyr’s Fireworks)

• Karlach: Oh man! WHIZBANGS!
• Astarion: Keep calm, Karlach. One bad flare and you could blow this whole place.
• Karlach: (Oh man! Whizbangs!)
• Astarion: Better.

Karlach and Gale

(At Rethwin Tollhouse)

• Karlach: Whoa! Almost slipped there.
• Gale: You wouldn't be the first, I'd wager. It's been some time since these walkways felt the carpenter's hammer.
• Karlach: You gonna catch me if I eat a brick?
• Gale: With my reflexes? I'd catch you before you so much as stubbed a toe.

Karlach and Shadowheart

• Karlach: Ahh. Flowers, leaves, grass. Can't beat it.
• Shadowheart: I was raised in the city - I'm more used to feeling cobblestones underfoot than grass and fallen leaves.
• Karlach: Before I went to Avernus, I'd have agreed with you. Nothing quite like Baldur's Gate, is there?
• Shadowheart: Nothing in my recollection, anyway...

---

Karlach and Lae'zel

• Karlach: Is this your first time on the Sword Coast, Lae'zel?
• Lae'zel: Yes. It is much more... lively... then the githyanki slates led me to believe.
• Karlach: Just wait till you see Baldur's Gate. You'll never want to leave.

---

(at Wyrm's Rock Fortress)

• Karlach: You know, I've always kind of hated this place. Such ado about a damned bridge.
• Lae'zel: It's just a bridge. Is it really worth all that ire?
• Karlach: C'mon, isn't there something you hate for no good reason?
• Lae'zel: Hm. I dislike owls. Their hyper-mobile necks are quite disconcerting.
• Karlach: You know what, Lae? I couldn't agree more.
