Baldur’s Gate 3 player discovers adorable Minthara love notes

While “sweet” and “wholesome” are not words usually associated with Minthara, one Baldur’s Gate 3 player has found an adorable Easter egg related to the drow companion.

Baldur’s Gate 3‘s Minthara is quite unique among the game’s companions. While all of the major characters have their flaws and gray morality, Minthara is the only one the game considers truly evil.

Loopholes aside, you have to do some pretty despicable things to recruit the Drow Paladin, and you’ll miss out on quite a bit of content if she joins the party.

However, a Baldur’s Gate 3 fan has uncovered a Minthara secret in Act 1 that’s pretty adorable – and surprisingly wholesome.

One Baldur’s Gate 3 goblin has a sweet crush on Minthara

As pointed out by Twitter user SongbirdN7, there are some adorable love notes to Minthara hidden in the goblin camp. In them, the writer attempts to express their love for the Paladin while also trying to determine what metaphors and compliments are appropriate for a drow.

Fun fact there's a somewhat hidden area in the goblin camp in BG3 Act 1 beneath the waterfall where you can find a little shrine dedicated to Minthara by a goblin who has a crush on her and he even wrote her little love notes :') pic.twitter.com/dCHpRi0Nzi

Further inspection reveals the author is Klagga, who can be found by the roasting spit. If you use Detect Thoughts on him, you’ll learn he secretly loves poetry but doesn’t want the other goblins to find out.

On top of being weirdly cute, the notes themselves are pretty funny. Klagga may love poetry, but it’s pretty obvious he’s used to wooing other goblins. He laments that Minthara “ain’t got any scabs or boils” to compliment and assumes drow enjoy being compared to mushrooms.

Klagga also considers sending her “some bit of people wot I killed” which, since this is Minthara we’re talking about, might actually help him.

The love notes are a small detail, but a cute one that shows just how important Minthara is to the goblins.
