Involvement

Act One

Grukkoh is in a barn next to the Blighted Village, where he and Buthir enjoy a private moment. Should the party interrupt, a cut scene triggers, after which they both become hostile.

The following responses avoid combat:

• [BARBARIAN] [INTIMIDATION] I'M LAUGHING AT YOUR PUNY RUTTING. (DC 15)
• [BARD] [PERSUASION] Do carry on. There's bookshops in Baldur's Gate that'd pay well for this kind of smut. (DC 15)
