Baldur's Gate II: Throne of Bhaal Hints

How can I help the beggar spirit?

  • 1 of 12: He looks pretty upset.
  • 2 of 12: What's the best thing you can do for a lost soul?
  • 3 of 12: Free it, of course!
  • 4 of 12: Open all the cell doors you can, and in one of them, the spirit will appear again and indicate something about his head and his neck.
  • 5 of 12: Note the message about the skeleton in the corner missing a skull.
  • 6 of 12: You can find a skull in a barrel right next to where you first encountered the spirit, through the secret passage to the northeast.
  • 7 of 12: In the cell right below where you second encountered the spirit, there's a rusty necklace.
  • 8 of 12: Take the necklace and the skull, and place them both on the container in the room where you encountered the spirit the second time.
  • 9 of 12: The spirit will appear again, and a message will prompt you to use some holy water on the grave.
  • 10 of 12: If you have it, just use the container again, and the spirit will return.
  • 11 of 12: If you don't have it, you can buy some at the temple for a hundred or so gold.
  • 12 of 12: Once you use the water on the grave, the spirit will open a previously unopenable cell, and inside you will find the Bronze Ioun Stone, very nice for mages, and it can be upgraded later.
