Ethel got my Tav where it *hurts* byu/Avelera inBaldursGate3

During a role-playing session as a human Tav, a Reddit user was surprised when they were playing as a lowly street urchin and trying to create a character who was completely unremarkable. However, they were caught off guard when Auntie Ethel took notice of their character’s unexpected involvement in wild events beyond their capabilities.

“She taunted, “A human, so desperate to be special!”

The speaker was amazed when they read Ethel’s comment about their character in Baldur’s Gate 3. Despite knowing that it was a common observation and pre-written line, they were struck by the coincidence of Ethel pinpointing the insecurity at the core of their character’s roleplay. They expressed their admiration for the game on the discussion forum.

Additional individuals also added to the conversation, recounting their own encounters with Ethel where she verbally belittled the esteemed Astarion and exhibited a ruthless demeanor towards individuals of different social standings.

Ethel also reminds Astarion to remove the rats from his teeth and mentions something about his intended role as a slave. Additionally, she insults the cleric’s deity if they happen to be one.

“I gasped loudly as another person explained that Astarion had failed a saving throw against ‘Deep down, you like being leashed, don’t you?’ This was definitely a case of vicious mockery.”

Luckily, Ethel’s cruel remarks provide even greater motivation to defeat her, allowing you to potentially acquire some incredible loot.
