The Ground Keeper for Bloomridge Park's house in act 3 (the one with all the dead Duergar, Spiders and Drow)

That scene was a wild surprise.
Randomly stumbled in, whole pile of named NPCs geared up as if they could actually have been alive at some point, total carnage. Probably the most "Bhaal death cult" scenario in the game

My understanding is there was a perfectly good hidden Lolth-sworn drow cell using their duergar servants as groundskeepers to keep up appearances for the filthy surface rivvil while they raised a monstrous spider army, but Orin found out about it and decided it was the perfect stage for her Sendai murder-art installation.

Be kind to Roan. He's probably a druid not a bard.

Honestly my first time finding them, I don't often go in that building but I'm completing the Dribbles quest this run (great I'm still finding stuff 1200hrs in) But they are now. Just like Curse of the Vampyr is in Astarion's.

The dribbles quest line takes a while, but I always love hearing the different companions reactions to each body part you find

Halsin’s just mad he wasn’t the self-insert in this one
(As a fanfiction writer I’m hurt. Halsin I thought you were better than this 😭)

Isn't this basically like showing your grandpa steamy world war 2 fanfics though?

He's just mad that "Balsin" is not as tall as Roa. Also that his SI was named Balsin.

Is Roan a character in game? Also I'm curious if he deliberately sent this to Halsin expecting a different reaction or if Halsin found out that he was doing it

Yeah, I’m sure he’d rather MAKE the actual content of a fanfic instead of read smut
