Minsc

Hiring
To hire Jaheira, travel to Nashkel, you will find him outside the Garrison. Simply agree to help Minsc find Dynaheir and he will join you. If you do you not appear as though you are trying to rescue Dynaheir (ie heading west to the Gnolls), Minsc will leave you.

Minsc is the proud owner of Boo, a hamster, this hamster consumes one of Minsc's quick item slot, but has no abilities. Boo cannot be removed, nor can you cannot collect Boo from a dead Minsc.

Once they have both joined your party; if one leaves the other will follow. The only way to seperate them after this is when one dies. If you want Dynahei but not Minsc, you can recover her without him, she will not yearn for Minsc as he did for her.

In-game Biography
When asked about his past, Minsc proudly announces that he is a berserker warrior from the nation of Rasheman in the utter east. He is currently undertaking his dejemma, a ritual journey to manhood, amd is seeking adventure and glory in battle. It is also his honor to be the bodyguard of a young Wychalarn of Rasheman named Dynaheir, and if anyone tries to harm her he will beat sense into their heads until they reconsider. He is unsure as to why she has led them to the Sword Coast, but his loyalty is unquestioning. If he serves her well and distinguishes himself in battle he hopes to be accepted into thw ice dragon beserker lodge upon return to their homeland. So far Minsc considers his most notable experience in the world abroad, to be the aquistion of his animal companion 'Boo', a creature that he claims is a minature giant space hamster. Apparently such things do exist in the Realms, but Minsc has surely taken too many blows to the head. He seems a good-natured fellow, but is all too willing to indulge in his berserker nature.
