- Not to be confused with Larz.
Larze is a true neutral ogre, encountered in the Blushing Mermaid which is located in the city of Baldur's Gate
“ | Larze will crush you now, crush you to paste. | ” |
Unlike previous would-be assassins, Larze carries no note or letter authorizing his actions. Also, his attack can be avoided by choosing dialog option 1. This will cause him to go away and check a picture of the person he is looking for, telling you to stay where you are until he returns. The reward for this choice is 900 XP. He actually will never come back, though. Tough fight. 2000 XP for killing him. Drops Gauntlets of Weapon Skill.
It is possible to get both rewards if you manage to charm or paralyze him before he leaves, and then kill him.
Dialogue[]
"Huurm. I be Larze. You be Gorion's Ward. Don't try deny it. You should not have come to Baldur's Gate. You given many warning before, but you ignore them. Now you must pay. Sorry, but Larze must kill."
- 1 — Wait one moment, you big oaf. Why would you think that I'm Gorion's Ward? Do I look like I could be that kind of hero? Gorion's Ward is a juggernaut of destruction, with flaming eyes and a roaring voice. My companions and I, we're just normal folks.
- "Huh? But you must be Gorion's Ward. Me see picture, and it looks like you. It had no fire eyes or big voice. Though pictures don't have voices. Hmm, I confused."
- 1a — That's very good, we'll just be taking our leave of you now. Have a good day, Mr. Larze.
- "You LIE! You lie to Larze, to try to save life. Larze will crush you now, then he will rip off all your heads."
- 1b — Larze, my poor confused ogre. There is only one thing for you to do. You have to go back and take a closer look at the picture. I'm sure once you've had a second look, you'll know what a big mistake you've made. Now run along, we'll be waiting right here.
- "Yes! Good idea, Larze will find picture and see for sure. You will wait here until Larze gets back."
- 1a — That's very good, we'll just be taking our leave of you now. Have a good day, Mr. Larze.
- "Huh? But you must be Gorion's Ward. Me see picture, and it looks like you. It had no fire eyes or big voice. Though pictures don't have voices. Hmm, I confused."
- 2 — I'm really starting to get tired of threats. Everywhere I go, I'm threatened. Well, you big lug, you're going to end up like all the rest of them.
- "Larze will crush you now, crush you to paste."
- 3 — How about you just let us go? I'll be walking out that door right now... okay?
- "NO! Larze must kill you, and take heads. Heads important, 'cause they are how Larze prove he kill you. Must not forget heads."
