Kaishas Gan is the headwomen of the lost werewolf clan on the Isle of Balduran. She can be found in the Chieftain's House in the central part of the werewolf village. She will ask Gorion's Ward and party to kill the "beasts" that are keeping the islanders inside their village walls.

Gameplay[]
Hut[]
Kaishas is unkillable inside of the chieftain's house (hut), both before and/or after completing the quest to defeat Karoug.
- Attacking her when you first meet her will cause her to leave the hut and disappear. All other characters within the village will turn hostile upon sight while transforming to their werewolf form before attacking the party. Kaishas will be found on the deck of the ship that is ready to sail to the mainland.
- If you choose to fight and defeat Karoug (which more closely aligns with the whole premise of the island quest) and return to Kaishas, after some short dialogue, she will take the Sea Charts and disappear, again heading for the ship while the rest of the villagers turn hostile.
Ship[]
- While on the deck of the ship in her human form, Kaishas is now killable as her hit points have decreased considerably due to her different creature file (KAISH2.cre). This is only possible with a stealth backstab, or if she is stunned or held before she is able to initiate dialogue. However, it is advisable that this method of game play is not attempted as she really isn't in possession of the Sea Charts, which are required to escape the island. The game script removes the charts from the party's inventory but doesn't add it to Kaishas's human form inventory. Instead the charts are also included in the inventory of the Loup Garou creature (which is specific to Kaishas) that Kaishas transforms into. Killing the werewolf is the only way to obtain the charts and leave the island, otherwise you'd have to cheat the charts into your inventory to leave the island.
Quest Note[]
After going to the wrecked ship and fighting and killing the lycanthrope beasts, the player should talk to all of the villagers that you received quests from before going to the chief's hut to speak to Kaishas Gan, as the option to speak to any other villagers will no longer be available after that point.
