Baldur\u2019s Gate 3 allows you to join forces with various other travelers on your journey across the Sword Coast. But while the game lets you befriend and bond with your companions, it also provides plenty of opportunities to be cruel to them. This doesn\u2019t always come without consequence, though, as one player learned after sacrificing Gale and trying to send him to the Nine Hells. Note, spoilers for Gale\u2019s storyline to follow. Gale\u2019s nuclear corpse explosion ends Baldur\u2019s Gate 3 run from Avernus At this point, most Baldur\u2019s Gate 3 players have probably heard about the consequences of killing Gale. The Wizard of Waterdeep has what is essentially a nuke in his chest, and if he dies, it will blow up and kill your entire party if you don\u2019t resurrect him within a few days. One player decided to test the limits of this by trying to send Gale\u2019s corpse to a different realm, but even that doesn\u2019t stop him from blowing up and entire playthrough. As Reddit user ThePawn08 shared, they \u201creverse-pick-pocketed Gale\u2019s corpse into Raphael\u2019s inventory,\u201d presumably sending him to The House of Hope in Avernus. However, rather than destroying Raphael\u2019s home and leaving the party intact, Gale did ultimately explode and kill everyone, though the player noted \u201cI got a lengthy black screen instead of a cut scene.\u201d This most likely is a result of the game not expecting anyone to stuff Gale\u2019s body into a cambion\u2019s pocket to detonate on another plane, some have proposed in-universe explanations. One suggests \u201craphael probably so pissed you obliterated his house he came to kill you in your sleep,\u201d which would explain the lack of a cutscene showing Gale exploding. Others have assumed Raphael was on the Material Plane at the time, as he does seem to travel around messing with mortals quite a bit. Perhaps the funniest part of the entire situation is that Raphael, somehow, doesn\u2019t notice the player giving him Gale. As one player put it \u201cIt\u2019s killing me that we\u2019re rationalizing a believable \u2018headcanon\u2019 of where Raphael must have been for this to have happened, ignoring the fact that Raphael needs to have somehow been unaware he was carrying the body of a grown man in his pocket the entire time.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Baldur\u2019s Gate 3 player learns one companion death can haunt you from hell Larian StudiosA Baldur\u2019s Gate 3 player found that, after sacrificing a companion during Act One, his death came back to haunt them, even from the Nine Hells.
