Baldur's Gate 3 has many recurring characters that can be met in the first act and will walk the same path as the player to Baldur's Gate. While many of these characters will tie into personal quests that will affect if they make it or not, some have it a bit easier and will make it as long as the player doesn't make any truly evil decisions.
