As it typically goes in D&#038;D, there isn\u2019t usually a prominent leader of the group. However, in a game where you\u2019re the only player, it usually goes without saying that the player is the main character. This is entirely the case for Baldur\u2019s Gate 3, where Tav retains their position as leader and caretaker of some troubled companions. However, during one scene, a companion is kidnapped by Orin. This has some Baldur\u2019s Gate 3 fans wondering on the game\u2019s Reddit \u2013 who would take the lead if Tav went missing? \u201cSay for the sake of argument, Tav is the one who gets kidnapped, who steps up in their absence?\u201d asked the player, going on to wonder that you could \u201cmake a case for Shadowheart, Jaheira, Laezel, and Wyll, but idk. Jaheira feels the most right considering she is High Harper after all, but I\u2019m curious to see what other people might say. More broadly, which companion ends up filling in that \u201cright-hand man\u201d spot.\u201d While the poster clearly thought Jaheira would be the ideal candidate, other fans thought Lae\u2019zel would end up taking the reins. One user commented: \u201cEveryone knows that Lae\u2019zel is just gonna walk up with a chain and beat people until they understand who\u2019s in ska\u2019keth command.\u201d However, one user highlighted that \u201cLae\u2019zel would lead you on an insane hunt to please a \u201cgoddess\u201d whom everyone else thinks sucks and isn\u2019t even very powerful or cooperative\u201d rather than actually saving you. Interestingly, a few players thought Minthara would be the ideal second in command during an evil run where you romance her. One user revealed the reason behind the idea: \u201cOnce you are hers, she would murder everyone to get you back.\u201d Nevertheless, hundreds of players took to the comments to share the most obvious answer, Gale.\u201dHe\u2019s the most level-headed\u201d commented one user, while another echoed their thoughts by adding that \u201che\u2019d be the best counsel.\u201d However, another fan shared exactly why Gale is the second in command to both players and Larian themselves: \u201cGale is the canon leader in Bg3 promotion vids. Gale is the lore-accurate answer.\u201d It\u2019s hard to deny that Gale would be the best person to keep all the other companions on track, while still managing to save you from Orin, but who knows who\u2019d end up trying to take over?<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>This Baldur\u2019s Gate 3 companion is Tav\u2019s second in command according to fans Larian StudiosWhile Tav may be the default leader of Baldur\u2019s Gate 3, many fans were wondering who their second in command would be, and one companion undoubtedly came out on top.
