Baldur’s Gate 3 players reveal rare Emperor interaction you probably missed

Fans of Baldur’s Gate 3 have recently uncovered a distinct romantic interaction with The Emperor, leading to their belief that the protagonist is the favored one of the Mind Flayer.

Despite being a controversial character in Baldur’s Gate 3, the Emperor is viewed by many players as solely guiding the main character for its own benefit. However, there are other fans who are not bothered by its actions and believe that this intricate Mind Flayer has greater concerns than trying to deceive them.

These fans have also observed that The Emperor not only develops a close relationship with their characters after one of the most bizarre romance scenes in Baldur’s Gate 3, but they believe that a hidden interaction suggests that their character has become the creature’s most beloved being in its entire existence.

A Reddit post brought together fans of The Emperor to discuss the intricacies of this distinctive dialogue and how female characters can uncover the Mind Flayer’s true emotions.

Players will need to romance The Emperor before trying to trigger this special dialogue.

To initiate this interaction, players must have successfully completed the two DC 15 Insight checks in Act 1 (which will enable them to embrace The Guardian), pursued a romantic relationship, and agreed to sleep with The Emperor in Act 3. Once these conditions have been met, they must make their way to the Emperor’s hideout and search for Steelmane’s portrait.

This will initiate a conversation with The Emperor in which he will remark, “She’s beautiful, isn’t she? I have always believed Belynne to be the most regal of all women.”If the protagonist has spent considerable time with The Emperor, they will need to pass one final test before he will acknowledge that they are in fact “more regal”than Steelmane.

A fan commented that it makes them wonder about a lot of things. They noted that the male character seems to be trying to reassure the female player and prevent any jealousy, but does not exhibit this behavior with Ansur. This observation was found to be fascinating.

The interaction in Baldur’s Gate 3 left fans in awe, particularly considering it had to be “prepared”back in Act 1, a time when players were unaware of The Emperor’s true identity.

That concludes everything on the rarest Emperor interaction that you may have missed in Baldur’s Gate 3.
