Cazador's Spawn Dialogue

SO I have a lot of thoughts about what Larian (and subsequently, WotC) decided to keep in the final game and what they neglected. I have been writing fics that I've kept (and likely will) keep to myself as a way to explore the characters of all of the spawn we get to see. Which, is, like weirdly minimal. But, as a result of like research and everything, I've invented an absurd amount of background nonsense.

However, I do have things that are canon that I keep in little txt files for writing reference. For instance - all the dialogue I have been able to reasonably track down for each spawn we find (THAT DOES INCLUDE THE ONES IN CELLS).

And, idk, thought it would be nice to share with the world as a whole. ENJOY (below the cut). It might not be everything that has been datamined, but it's what I've found through the course of my obsessive googling. And, again, I emphasize this is not exhaustive. It's just what I've personally been able to find.

AURELIA

"Peace, brother, we're here to take you home." "Much as we'd love to, the master's orders were very specific." "Master Cazador has known where Astarion was this entire time. He knew he would return. The Rite…the master needs him. He must attend." "Perhaps we can get back at Cazador, and finish the ritual. The seven can unite." "The bond's hold! He owns us! We have no choice, we must obey. Get out of here, Astarion, before…" "My…head. Do I know you? Why are your features a smear across your face?" "The master is dead…I can't come to grips with it. Now what? What now?!"

LEON

"The master needs all seven of us for the ceremony. Come with us and be reborn. We'll live again!" "The master said 'no witnesses'." "Better? What do you mean 'better'?" "You're free of him? Petras was right - you've changed. Maybe you could complete the ritual. Maybe you could free us." "What's happening? Where's the master?" "Can't think…can't get rid of his voice…"

PETRAS

"Hello beautiful, I didn't see you there." "Hello, beautiful, aren't you a sight to behold!" "You must excuse my sister, she's a terrible bore! But you look like someone who enjoys a party! There's a celebration being held in the palace of Cazador Szarr! Why not join us?" "You should come! It'll be the talk of Baldur's Gate." "Thank goodness we're such good friends, then!" "Ah, yes, dear sister, I know we have places to be. We'll leave once our good friends here have departed!" "I look forward to seeing you at the palace, though. It'll be a once in a lifetime experience, I promise." "Soon, sister. I only need one more mark." "It's not for the master, it's for me! I spent one hundred years eating rats and dogs, but soon I'll be able to feast! I want someone there, ready for me. And once the Mass is done and our lord grants us our freedom, I can celebrate by drinking them dry." "Isn't it obvious, sister? He wants to ascend with the rest of us. He heard about the ritual and the power our master will grant us, so he came back with his tail between his legs, hoping all would be forgiven." "What the hells happened to you, Astarion? What ARE you?!" "Where is he?! What have you done?" "I've never seen him bleed before…I didn't know it was possible."

DALYRIA

"You must excuse my brother. He forgets that we have a very pressing engagement!" "We were just discussing a…celebration being held in the palace of Cazador Szarr." "This is not the time, Petras! "Can we go now, brother? Have you been rejected enough?" "Oh, I'm sure he has plans. But I wouldn't dare guess at them." "We should go. I do not want to face the master if we're late for his Black Mass." "We have enough for the master! No more are needed!" "Astarion?! It…it cannot be! Why would you come back? You got out -- you were free!" After Astarion drags Petras into the sun - "NO! Brother! Please!" "The master is preparing the Black Mass. Beneath his palace. There's a defiled chapel - it was hidden there the entire time. Hidden from us all!" "Is he resting? Will the master rise again?" "What's happening? Where's the master?"

VIOLET

"Cazador is dust, and Violet blooms! I shall live as a permanent rebuke to all that monster stood for!" "Praise Kelemvor! I died a thousand times, yet somehow, I live!" "Cazador dead, and I alive! I'm giddy! I'm giddy with…glee!"

YOUSEN

"Am I alive? I'm alive! Hahahahahaha! But oh, oh, oh, for how long?" "Cazador, dead. I was his slave for only sixty years, but it seems like an eternity." "Agh! I feel like I gargled a straight razor. But to feel anything is wonderful…wonderful!"

THE CAGED SPAWN

SEBASTIAN

"You…I know you. You're the one from the tavern. You smiled and joked and got me drunk." "You called me so many sweet things. My name sounded like a lyric on your tongue" "You remember me." "You taught me how. And then you destroyed me." "How long?" "How long have I been down here." "My family…my friends…they're gone. You took them from me - you took everything from me." "Help. Help? There's no helping us while that monster lives." "You can't. It's not possible." "You can't stop him. No one can stop him." "Free? We'll never be free while that monster lives." "And then? What happens to us?" "Free from this nightmare? It doesn't feel possible." "Whatever you do, just do it quickly. I can't go on waiting." "Kill him? That monster? You can't. It's not possible." "The grand chamber, just ahead. But even if you can kill him - what then? What happens to us?" "His staff. It controls everything. But he never sets it down - you'll never get it." "I - I don't know. It's all I've ever felt." "There's no escape. No escape for us. And no escape for you - Astarion."

WENSLEYDALE

"No! Please, master! Not again, master!" "I'm sorry, master, I'm so sorry."

GONDLEMEAD

"Days. Months. Years. They're all the same." he stands silently, staring intently at nothing

HAPDIM

"You're a dream…you must be." "I have the strangest dreams. The worst nightmares."

CHESSA

"hey - hey you - come closer." "It IS you! I knew it! I'll kill you, once I get out of here, I'LL KILL YOU!" "If I ever get out of here you'll wish you'd died when you were bitten!" "I'm hungry. Starved. And it's all because of him! Didn't he tell you? He's the one that kidnapped us! He's the reason we're SPAWNS! I'LL KILL YOU!" "Camp - camp. Monster hunsters. The Gur camp. OH GODS! My parents camp! Chessa focus - resist the beast inside you - you promised! It's YOUR fault! You did this to us!" "Parents? You've seen my parents?" "I miss them - I think. Or perhaps it's the hunger. I don't know - it's so hard to tell. You should go. Leave us here. We shouldn't be out there - we'd hurt our families." "I don't think I'll ever be able to go home. Not like this." "Tell them - tell them you couldn't find us." "Rats - great idea, why didn't I think of that? I'll just find the hundred rats I'd need to even make a dent in this hunger." "You - you really mean it? Cazador's got this staff. It controls the doors. If you get it, you could set everyone free. IF you get it, somehow." "Good luck - if you fail, well, I suppose we'll be seeing you again in here." "Please - whatever you could do."
