Korgan Bloodaxe

Template:BG2

Korgan Bloodaxe was an evil dwarf companion of the Bhaalspawn.

“

When asked about his past, Korgan growls that unless you want to end up like the members of his last scum-sucking, traitorous party, you'd best keep your over-curious nose to yourself. Seeing as the dwarf is only slightly short of a necklace of ears in proving his enjoyment of slaughter, you decide to obey his request.

”

— Character description from the Baldur's Gate II: Shadows of Amn computer game.

Gameplay

Korgan is considered one of the best fighters in the game for an evil party, probably even better than Minsc, save for the low intelligence attribute that makes Korgan very susceptible to mind flayers. Korgan's uncompassionate (mildly psychotic) attitude causes conflicts with good-aligned party members, except for Mazzy, who it seems he has feelings for, making him a difficult ally for those who wish to complete the game as "the good guy." Found as a mercenary in the Slums District, Korgan has a quest involving obtaining the "Book of Kaza" from the Graveyard District and follows the player character indefinitely after completing it.

Voice acting

Korgan is voiced by William E. Martin in Baldur's Gate II: Shadows of Amn.
