Ritual Guard is a type of drow warrior found in the city of Ust Natha and inside the Temple of Lolth during the Baldur's Gate II: Shadows of Amn campaign.

We protect the matron mother with our lives, if need be. Do not anger the matron or the Spider Queen, and you shall have nothing to fear from us.

Gameplay[]

These male warriors are clad in adamantine full plate and wield the drow lance. They are positioned in a few areas of the temple, and a few also patrol at walking speed within.

They can be spoken to, but generally won't engage in conversation.

These guards will be neutral, but if the city alarm script is initiated, or if any in the temple are attacked, they will spring into action. They are trained to attack their nearest detected enemy and fight to the death in melee combat.
