Baldur's Gate 3 Characters Including Karlach and Astarion Get Official Dungeons & Dragons Minis From WizKids
The main party members of Baldur's Gate 3 — including characters such as Karlach, Astarion, and Shadowheart — are getting official Dungeons & Dragons miniatures from WizKids.
The D&D Icons of the Realms: Baldur's Gate 3 box set is now available to preorder on the WizKids website for $49.99 and comes with seven minis in total.
Alongside Karlach the tiefling barbarian, Astarion the elf rogue, and half elf cleric Shadowheart, the box set also includes Gale the human wizard, Lae'zel the githyanki fighter, Wyll the human warlock, and Withers, the wise zombie man who revives fallen allies and summons companions in Baldur's Gate 3.
"Transport your favorite characters from the screen to the tabletop with the new D&D Icons of the Realms: Baldur’s Gate 3 Character Boxed Set," reads the official description. "This set features seven iconic characters from the critically acclaimed Baldur’s Gate 3 video game, perfectly recreated as detailed, pre-painted miniatures.
"Housed in non-blind windowed packaging, this set includes pre-painted miniatures for Astarion, Karlach, Gale, Shadowheart, Wyll, Lae’zel, and Withers. The set is perfect for Dungeon Masters looking to feature a famous character or as a collector’s piece for Baldur’s Gate and D&D fans."
As mentioned, the set is particularly exciting for dungeon masters who happen to be fans of Baldur's Gate 3, the D&D based role-playing game that proved a critical and commercial hit in 2023. It allows players to meet the Baldur's Gate 3 party in their own campaigns, fitting around the story of the video game. A nice option to have, perhaps, given Baldur's Gate 3 developer Larian has now moved on from Baldur's Gate 3 and Dungeons & Dragons to make a brand new game.
The set obviously doesn't include the additional party members characters can pick up later such as Halsin or Minthara, but perhaps this leaves a little room open for WizKids to release a second Baldur's Gate 3 box set.
