Meli | Baldurs Gate 3 Wiki

Every time I try to save Barth, I fail. He always dies at the gates. Not that I tried hard :D

If you tell Meli to give the amulet back, then persuade her (asking why she took it), you get the option to demand an answer before she gives it back. If you do so, she says it looked liker her mom's, and barth lets her keep it (but you don't get a reward).

You can lift the medallion before Meli gets it, gotta be super quick though. If you do, it skips Barth and Meli's fight. If you lift the medallion AFTER Meli takes it off Barth, it changes the dialogue by giving you an additional option of "Don't worry, the kids good. I'm better." - You hand it back. Meli is supposedly impressed, Barth is thankful. Initially. You can then ask Barth if you can have the Medallion, and if you insist, starts a fight. Most likely the main path is to let Meli nab the medallion, let them argue (worth it for the Inspiration for Urchins.) Then go steal it back in the Thieflings hideout. Doing so has Meli mouth off at you, but Barth is happy, and you can either extort him, or he gives you a reward willingly. You can then steal the medallion off of Barth again, and sell it, or return it to the Thieflings stash. Unfortunately, Meli won't react even if you do have the piece on you when he returns to the hide out, no matter what route you go.

I'm on a playthrough where I'm trying to learn as much about Act 1 as possible, and I've discovered that if you pickpocket Meli, he has random loot belonging to a child (in my case it was a toy block and 3 gold). He will then run over to the steps near Ikaron (the guard) and shrug, then if engaged in dialogue will say "I hope I don't look as old as you when I'm your age."

He then runs to Mog's hideout and practices pickpocketing on the dummy with the backpack. If spoken to, he will say "You're the first grown-up who's ever gotten in here, not bad."

Is Meli a girl? The dialog options say boy, with charname calling Meli boy a number of times. That voice though is very clearly a girls voice. I wonder if maybe it was switched, but forgot to change that dialog, or if the va just didn't put enough bass in her voice to sound like a boy.
