[[Helia]] was datamined during Early Access as a potential origin. Little is known about her, as she has never been officially confirmed, but the datamined content suggests she might have been intended to be a werewolf [[bard]].

Nerela was a [[tiefling]] [[tiefling refugees|refugee]] that could have been encountered in the Emerald Grove, on a rocky ledge behind {{CharLink|Mattis}}.

During her family's flight to Baldur's Gate, they stumbled upon a pack of [[gnoll|gnolls]] that soon killed Nerela's husband and daughter, with the music box being one of the few possessions she still has left. She mentions hearing about how entry into Baldur's Gate would require coin and bribes, and how that she doesn't have anything to her name. The party can then offer to buy the music box from her, be charitable and give her gold, or tell her to accept {{CharLink|Auntie Ethel|Auntie Ethel's}} offer of purchase instead.
 
However, should the party instead inspect the music box and pass an [[Insight]] check, it'd reveal that Nerela had been lying the whole time, shedding fake tears and making up an elaborate sob story in order to get the party to part with their coin. The tiefling conwoman reveals her scheme and states that she'd need to coin to enter Baldur's Gate, as guards there fish for bribes. Nerela can then be forced to part with the music box through [[Intimidation]] or {{SAI|Detect Thoughts}}, applauded for her acting skills, or the party can still give her some gold, to which she'll accept and tell the party to watch out for the tiefling children instead, calling them the ''real swindlers''.
