Baldur's Gate 3: Every Possible Ending For Minthara

Baldur’s Gate 3 has a colorful cast of companions, all of whom have a variety of endings based on your choices throughout the story, ranging from wholesome to downright diabolical. A real "I can fix them/I can make them worse" situation, localized entirely within one worm-ridden adventuring party.

Nightwarden Minthara, one of the handful of non-Origin companions, has a unique path, starting out as an antagonist with the possibility to join your party and stand beside you in your final fight. She's facing a dangerous road on the way to Baldur's Gate, though, with multiple ways she can meet her unfortunate demise.

Defeated At The Goblin Camp

After speaking with Zevlor and the druids at the Grove about their goblin situation, you're given the quest Defeat the Goblins, which includes beating the goblins' three leaders: Priestess Gut, Dror Ragzlin, and Nightwarden Minthara. Here's where Minthara meets her most common endings: shoved into the chasm conveniently located in the middle of her office, or killed and stripped naked for the coolest camp clothes you'll find until Act 3.

For Minthara to appear later in the game, she must be spared here, by knocking her unconscious instead of killing her, or by ignoring the Defeat the Goblins quest entirely.

Fight At The Grove

Instead of fighting the goblins and their leaders at their camp, you can lead them to the Grove and stage a fight there. Fighting at the Grove gives you allies, as the game suggests that you and the tieflings combined would outnumber the goblins, but you might also reach this point as part of the quest Save the Goblin Sazza.

Fighting at the Grove instead of the goblin camp offers a different type of challenge, with different enemies to fight as you play defender instead of offense, but it means you can progress with helping the tieflings without needing to fight all three of the goblins' leaders. Only Minthara will attack the Grove, and defeating her and her army will progress the quest.

There is no way for Minthara to be spared in this fight, so this encounter will always result in her death.

Choosing this option might make for an easier encounter, but it will complicate things if you're aiming for the Leave No One Behind achievement.

Lover's Embrace

This ending is only available if you play as the Dark Urge Origin character.

The Dark Urge is a unique Origin character: fully customizable, appearance- and class-wise, but with a worrying case of amnesia and also the desire to murder everything in sight.

If you choose to play as the Dark Urge and follow the quest Raid the Grove, defeating the tieflings and druids alongside Minthara and the goblins, you'll get the option to spend the night with Minthara at the ensuing party. If you accept, in the ensuing conversation, the Dark Urge can imagine themselves snapping Minthara's neck.

This will kill her instantly.

Abandoned In Moonrise Towers

If Minthara was spared in Act 1, she'll return to the fray in Act 2 in Moonrise Towers, on trial for her failure to find the Mysterious Artifact. No matter how the conversation goes, she'll be taken away to be tortured, giving you the quest Decide Minthara's Fate.

If you follow Minthara and her captors to the dungeon, you can choose to let her torturers continue erasing her mind. This doesn't kill Minthara, but instead turns her into a mindless servant of the Absolute by fully erasing her mind and personality. She will be unrecruitable, and pitiable.

Alternatively, ignoring the quest entirely will also result in Minthara's death.

Companion Minthara

Provided Minthara has survived the number of ways she could meet an early end, after defeating the Netherbrain, she will return to the Underdark to begin fighting to take back her place in House Baenre. If you choose to romance her, you will get the option to go with her. If she was not romanced, she returns at Withers' epilogue party having begun her rebellion.

If you choose to undergo ceremorphosis before the final battle, don't worry! A romanced Minthara decides she's into squids and will stay with you.

Embracing The Urge

You have to play as the Dark Urge Origin character for this ending.

Facing down the Netherbrain, you will be given the choice to let your illithid ally end the Netherbrain once and for all, or to betray them and become the Absolute yourself. If you play as the Dark Urge, both your bloodline and Minthara will urge you to become the Absolute and fulfill your destiny.

If you do so, Minthara will, eventually, die. The exact method will change, depending on your choices or if Minthara is romanced or not, but she’s not making it out of here alive. No one is.

Become Absolute

An adventurer doesn't need Bhaal whispering in their ear to become evil — they just need Minthara telling them that they deserve to rule the world. If you choose to betray your illithid ally and become the Absolute, there are a couple of possible endings for a romanced Minthara.

Ruling Together

If you become the Absolute and romanced Minthara, you can choose to rule alongside her, sparing her from the fate you inflict upon the rest of your party and the city of Baldur's Gate.

Betraying Minthara

Instead, you can choose to make Minthara kneel, condemning her to the same miserable fate as your other newfound victims. A non-romanced Minthara will meet the same fate as the rest of your party and Baldur's Gate: either death or servitude.
