Fan-favourite NPC\u2019s fate revealed in rare Baldur\u2019s Gate 3 letter Larian StudiosOne beloved NPC in Baldur\u2019s Gate 3 may escape their grisly fate on the Dark Urge route, with her future revealed in a letter that very few players will ever see. The Dark Urge origin in Baldur\u2019s Gate 3 gives the player countless opportunities to commit horrible crimes. Still, few are as shocking as the murder of Alfira, the Tiefling Bard who accompanies the party in their camp, only to be killed that same evening. It\u2019s possible to prevent Alfira\u2019s death by knocking her out before she arrives in the camp, leading to her sending a thank you letter to the protagonist. This was added in the post-story epilogue scene, where the letter is delivered to your camp. This letter has become the focus of a thread on the Baldur\u2019s Gate 3 Reddit, where it\u2019s described as \u201cprobably the rarest letter in the game.\u201d The murder of Alfira hit fans hard, especially as she\u2019s a popular choice if Larian ever wanted to add a new party member. Those unaware of the letter\u2019s existence were touched by its contents. \u201cI love playing as dark urge but I think Alfira is a genuinely great and well-written side character, so this warms the cockles of my cold, dead, Bhaal-ridden heart,\u201d one fan wrote, while another said, \u201cI\u2019m not crying, you\u2019re crying.\u201d \u201cHow did you get this letter?\u201d one fan asked, \u201cI felt so bad killing Alfira. I hope her death isn\u2019t canon and she shows up again in some other game, novel, or anything.\u201d Not everyone was pleased by the letter\u2019s existence. \u201cJust makes me sad about no DLC,\u201d one fan joked, \u201cNow we\u2019ll never be able to track her down and finish the job.\u201d Larian has confirmed that there will be no DLC for Baldur\u2019s Gate 3 or significant content updates. This means that Alfira\u2019s role in the story is unlikely to be expanded outside of the new epilogues. It\u2019ll have to be enough that she can be spared in the Dark Urge run and have a chance at a normal life.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
