Baldur\u2019s Gate 3 players delighted by Karlach\u2019s nicknames for Origin characters Larian StudiosDuring a Shadowheart playthrough, a Baldur\u2019s Gate 3 player was delighted to learn Karlach has specific nicknames for the other Origin characters. Since Baldur\u2019s Gate 3 released last year, its resident tiefling barbarian Karlach has become a fan favorite, and for good reason. Not only can she wipe the floor with foes in combat, but her positive attitude is refreshing in a game that gets pretty dark. Karlach is known for calling the protagonist \u201csolider,\u201d a nickname that\u2019s become an iconic part of her character. However, as players have noticed, Karlach actually has more specific nicknames for each of the other Origin characters that you\u2019ll only hear while playing as one of them. Baldur\u2019s Gate 3 players learn Karlach has special nickname for Origin characters Reddit user Valuable_Ant_969 was delighted to find this little detail while playing through a Shadowheart Origin run, saying \u201cWe all know Karlach\u2019s fun pet name soldier, but holy crap, I\u2019m doing a Shadowheart origin run and she calls us \u2018fringe\u2019!\u201d The nickname, of course, references Shadowheart\u2019s hairstyle with its distinct bangs. This led others in the comments to share Karlach\u2019s nicknames for other Origin characters. \u201cShe calls Gale \u2018magic man\u2019 and Lae\u2019zel just \u2018Lae\u2019 sometimes,\u201d shared one user. Others reported hearing Karlach call Astarion \u201cfangs,\u201d though it seems that might only occur when playing as a custom avatar or when playing as Karlach. Several players who have done Wyll Origin runs say Karlach still calls them \u201cSolider,\u201d though that makes sense given his role as the Blade of Frontiers. Karlach\u2019s nicknames are both an endearing part of her character and yet another example of the developer\u2019s attention to detail. That players are still finding things like this on repeats playthroughs shows just how much is hidden within Baldur\u2019s Gate 3 and why it\u2019s never a bad idea to start a new save.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
