Baldur's Gate 3 villain Orin the Red is psychotic because she's a "sweet little thing" who was "never taught how to love," says her voice actor: "The only thing she knows is violence"

Orin the Red in Baldur's Gate 3.

As one of the main villains in Baldur's Gate 3, Orin the Red is a truly malevolent archetype who seems driven purely by her own nefarious goals. Her voice actor Maggie Robertson is more sympathetic, however, and believes the character is as molded by what’s been absent from her life as what she’s been surrounded by.

During a chat with GamesRadar+, Robertson breaks down how she views Orin compared to the audience. "A lot of people like to just call her psychotic, but for me, she is that, but the reason why is because she is secretly a broken little thing," the actor explains.
