Baldur's Gate 3 Shadowheart actor was "fully expecting" Larian to cut her "finger-guns" gag about deadly poison, but "it ended up being in the game"

Baldur's Gate 3 party member Shadowheart, played by Jennifer English.

There's quite a lot of humor in Baldur's Gate 3, despite all the doom of gloom of the main quest, and it turns out one of the funnier moments was totally improvised. Jennifer English, the actor behind Shadowheart, took it upon herself to provide a punchline to an otherwise inconspicuous moment, and even she was surprised to see it made the final cut.

The scene in question involves the Night Orchids, and some sagely advice from our favorite Half-Elf. "One of my favorite moments in Baldur's Gate 3 was when Shadowheart says the line, talking about the Night Orchids, 'Huh, you didn't pick those by hand, did you? They're deadly poisonous,'" English recalls to Radio Times.
