Alright, let’s talk about this… uh… “bg3 baelen bag” thing. Don’t rightly know what all them letters and numbers mean, but I reckon it’s somethin’ important, seein’ as folks keep askin’ about it. So, listen up, ’cause I’m gonna tell ya what I know, even if it ain’t pretty or fancy.

Now, this here bag, it belongs to some fella named Baelen, I hear. And gettin’ it ain’t no walk in the park, that’s for sure. It’s in some cave, and that cave’s got more trouble than a hen house with a fox in it. Dangerous stuff, I tell ya.
First thing’s first, ya gotta watch out for that torch, way up yonder on the left side of the cave, they say. It’s like a dang trap, waitin’ to blow ya to kingdom come if ya get too close. The young’uns these days, they call it a “bibberbang” or some such nonsense. Sounds like somethin’ my old mule would make after eatin’ too many apples, if ya ask me. Anyway, ya gotta be sneaky, like a fox stealin’ eggs, or you’ll be toast.
- Sneaky like a fox: You gotta be real careful, ya hear? Don’t just go stompin’ in like a bull in a china shop.
- That dang torch: See that fire thingy up on the left? That’s trouble, I tell ya. Don’t get too close, or BOOM!
- Bibberbang go boom: That’s what happens if ya mess with that torch without bein’ smart about it.
Now, some folks say ya can jump or… what’s that word… “teleport”? Yeah, teleport to that torch. Sounds like somethin’ outta a fairy tale to me, but if ya can do it, go ahead. Just grab that torch and things get a whole lot easier, or so they say. The bag’s right there next to it, like a lost puppy waitin’ to be found.
Some folks, they care about this Baelen fella. Says they wanna save him. Me? I say, “to each their own”. But if ya wanna be a goody-two-shoes, ya gotta put out that torch. They say ya can use some fancy magic like “Ray of Frost” or just throw some water on it. Anything to cool it down, ya know? Then, ya gotta get to that bag, toss it to him, and skedaddle outta there before things go kablooey.
But here’s the thing, that cave’s got all sorts of nasty stuff, not just that bibberbang thingy. There’s poison and whatnot. They say there’s some special flowers, “noblestalk” they call ’em, and some “lolth’s candles” too. Sounds fancy, but I bet they ain’t worth the trouble. If ya wanna be safe, ya gotta drink some potion to keep the poison from killin’ ya. And if ya want Baelen gone, well, a little fire will do the trick, once ya got what ya came for.

Now, the easiest way, or so I heard tell, is to have one of them magic scrolls, a “Misty Step” scroll they call it. Ya just waltz into that cave, toss the scroll to Baelen, and he’s good to go. He’ll use it to skedaddle outta there, leaving you to grab the bag and whatever else you want. Apparently, ya gotta be strong enough to throw it though, somethin’ about a “DC 10 Strength check”. Sounds like hogwash to me, but you do what you gotta do.
But here’s another way, see? Ya can be sneaky, like I said before. Creep along the edge of the cave, on the left side. It’s a bit of a climb, but it’ll get ya down to the bag without settin’ off that dang bibberbang. Then ya can grab the bag, take what ya want, but they say ya should leave a Misty Step scroll in there for Baelen. Guess it’s the polite thing to do, even if he is a bit of a fool for gettin’ himself into this mess in the first place.
So, there ya have it. That’s all I know about gettin’ that Baelen’s bag. Remember, watch out for that torch, be sneaky, and maybe bring a potion or two. And for goodness sake, don’t go gettin’ yourself blown up. It ain’t worth it, not for some dusty old bag, no matter what’s inside. You just gotta use your head, ya hear? That’s the most important thing. Now git outta here and let me get back to my chores.
Key takeaways to remember:
- Safety first, always.
- Be smart, not reckless.
- That torch is trouble.
- There’s more than one way to skin a cat, or in this case, get a bag.
And that’s all she wrote, folks. Now go on, git!
