| This article is about an element from the game Baldur's Gate: Dark Alliance, and so some content may not be canon. Content published in computer role-playing games is considered canon unless it violates content already existing in some other Forgotten Realms publication. Furthermore, multiple endings in a game should be considered only quasi-canon since in almost all cases no one ending has been verified as canon, with exceptions.
