Edwynna
“Right. Article 30.1.5 of the Council's Decree on Extraordinary Wartime Measures. I am confiscating that. The city thanks you for your contribution.„
Involvement[edit | edit source]
Edwynna leads the squad guarding the South Span Checkpoint. She must be spoken to use the gate entrance to Wyrm's Crossing. [2] If the party try to enter Wyrm's Crossing through the checkpoint, the nearby guards direct them to Edwynna for passage.
Edwynna explains that refugees are not allowed to enter the city, but lets the party through with a 200 gold "fee" as a proof they have means to support themselves. She then asks for the player characters's name and business in the city:
- I have an urgent message for Duke Ulder Ravengard.
- [DECEPTION] I was born and raised in Baldur's Gate. This is my home. (DC 10)
- [DARK URGE] [DECEPTION] I need to pass. I'm a Baldurian. My Father is already inside, he's waiting for me! (DC 10)
- [DECEPTION] I need to pass. I was born and raised in Baldur's Gate. This is my home. (DC 10)
- [DARK URGE] [BALDURIAN] I came from Baldur's Gate - my old home is there... somewhere...
- [DARK URGE] [BALDURIAN] Please, let me pass. I need to find my old home. I'm a Baldurian!
- [BALDURIAN] Baldur's Gate is my city, my home.
- [BALDURIAN] Please, let me pass. Baldur's Gate is my city, my home.
- [FIGHTER] I'm here to enlist - figured the Fist could use a hand.
- [WIZARD] [DECEPTION] I am an envoy from the First Reader of Candlekeep. I come for knowledge. (DC 10)
- [MONK] [DECEPTION] I'm on a pilgrimage to the city - I walked barefoot from the Rosymorn Monastery. (DC 10)
- [DRUID] [DECEPTION] I wish to behold the Sea of Swords and commune with its water spirits. (DC 10)
- [RANGER] [DECEPTION] I'm following the trail of a deadly beast - it escaped into the city. (DC 10)
- [ROGUE] [DECEPTION] I've been hired by Baldurian nobility for a task requiring discretion. (DC 10)
- [CLERIC] [DECEPTION] My presence has been requested by the local temple. (DC 10)
- [BARD] [DECEPTION] Baldur's Gate is the next stop on my Faerûn-wide poetry tour. (DC 10)
- [BARBARIAN] [DECEPTION] I'm here for the Faerûn tavern brawl championships. (DC 10)
- [SORCERER] [DECEPTION] I suspect the source of my limitless arcane power resides in this city. (DC 10)
- [OATHBREAKER] [PALADIN] [DECEPTION] An immutable oath compels me to enter this city. (DC 10)
- [WARLOCK] [DECEPTION] I'm just here to purchase an eldritch tome of immense magical power. (DC 10)
Regardless of the option chosen, if the party do not attack they must submit to the nearby Steel Watcher, who performs a scan of the party, granting the 
to party members with the Sage background. If they are enemies of the Absolute, the player character must submit to arrest or attack.
If having successfully completed 
, then regardless of what dialogue is chosen, two Ironhand Gnomes, Nimble and Laridda, appear, throw a 
Flashblinder bomb, and then escape to Angleiron's Cellar. The 
guards can now be bypassed.
If the player character does not have an option to benefit from the gnomes' help and consents to be arrested, they found themselves in a cell in Wyrm's Rock Prison. They can use various ways to escape the cell, any of which grants them 
condition for 20 turns. After that, the party can freely explore the Wyrm's Rock Fortress and Wyrm's Crossing: the guards will treat them as other citizens eligible to cross the checkpoint in any direction.
Companion approval[edit | edit source]
Choosing certain options while speaking with Edwynna and further while being scanned by a Steel Watcher might grant following points of approval from various companions.[3]
- Gauntlet Edwynna: Halt! By orders of Lord Gortash, refugees are no longer allowed in the city. Turn around.
- Player character: You have no idea who you are talking to. Let me through or I'll kill you.

Notes and references[edit | edit source]

Florrick's Demotion Notice
- ↑ It is not necessary to enter Wyrm's Crossing through the checkpoint; the eastern side of the crossing can be climbed and then entered near Sharess' Caress. Once Wyrm's Crossing has been entered, the guards allow the party to pass regardless of method of entry.
- ↑ All options that grant any approval/disapproval while speking with Edwynna and the Steel Watcher have points envisioned for Minsc, too. However, this dialogue occurs only for the first time when the party crosses the threshold between Rivington and Wyrm's Crossing, therefore, the points for Minsc cannot be gained. As such, they are not enlisted here.
