Don't know if he's a side or a main character but Raphael reallys stole the show for me. The character, the writing, the voice acting, everything was just perfect about him.
In terms of actual minor characters, I really liked Omeluum as an early proof that a mind flayer can have its own personality and doesn't have to be part of a hive mind.
I really liked him, too! I saw an interview with him where he talks about his song and how he sent it to friends unprompted haha
I'm torn about the writing for Omeluum but not his character exactly...I just feel like the emperor would have something to say about it since he says he's the only mindflayer to escape. They should have met in game imo
Since the emperor is in your head all the time, you'd think he'd be able to figure out that Omeluum is free when he tries to remove the worm for you.
Not the biggest plot hole or anything, I just expected more from that line.
Also to be fair - I've stolen the egg in every game I've played not knowing that it prevents me from seeing Omeluum in act 3. So I might be totally wrong with my assessment
Steal the egg but also kill Esther. Then you can get the money for the egg from the Society and Omeluum still lives. Alternatively sell her the owlbear egg. She doesn't know the difference.
Interesting! Thanks for the tip. I didn't even make the connection until my friend said he saved Omeluum from the iron throne and I had no idea what he was talking about.
