“	Go for the eyes, Boo!	„
	— Minsc

Boo is the familiar and companion of Minsc, a miniature giant space hamster. Minsc can summon him with  Find Familiar: Boo.

Personality

Boo has a strong sense of justice, unafraid of confronting evil and taking matters into his own hands. He is observant, patient and wise, often serving as a moral guide to Minsc.

Boo is somewhat wary of cats, and has a soft spot for Shadowheart.

History

See also: Minsc's backstory

Boo is the long time familiar and greater half of Minsc, ever since they met when Minsc was just a typical berserker of Rashemen. Minsc was ambushed and injured, and was only just recovering when Boo appeared. Boo declared that Minsc had felt the "poking finger of justice", marking Minsc as its champion and Boo as his guide.

After the events of Shadows of Amn, both Boo and Minsc were ambushed by an unknown assailant and petrified in the middle of the marketplace in the Upper City in Baldur's Gate. They were released 80 years later, when Delina, a wild mage, accidentally struck the statue with a wild magic surge.

Minsc and Boo continued to travel together, but were separated for a time while Minsc was tricked into carrying out orders for the false 'Jaheira'. Boo was trapped in a wall in the Lower City Sewers by Absolute cultists, who feared his righteous gaze.

Notes and trivia

• When thrown, characters will have unique lines of dialogue.
• When thrown while wielding a weapon, it is possible to trigger sneak attack.
• The player will not be able to understand Boo, even while using  Speak with Animals. Minsc assures them that Boo "speaks of much", and maybe one day they will be able to understand him.
• Boo has many dozen cousins (though not all so open-minded about bipeds).
