BG3 Malus Thorm Dialogue Options

You’ll walk in on Malus Thorm teaching his nurses. He’ll bid you to come forward and feel free to take in his lessons as well. You will have the following options to respond, with possible minor differences based on Class:

1. I don’t wish to study, only to lift the curse on this land.
2. A student, yes. Do please enlighten me.
3. You will stop this sick spectacle at once.
4. What wrong has this man done to deserve such torture.
5. Attack.

All above dialogue options, excluding Attack obviously, will eventually lead to the below choices, again with possible differences based on Class. After his ode to Shar, he’ll offer to cure you too, to which you can respond with the following:

1. [INVESTIGATION, DC 14] Examine the sisters and their implements. (Rogues will have advantage on this check)
2. [RELIGION, DC 16] Recall what you know of Shar’s teachings. (Shadowheart: The Goddess has greater plans for me than to submit to your scalpels.)
3. [PERSUASION, DC 16] The sisters aren’t ready. They’ll make me sick instead of curing me.
4. Attack.

A successful check on any of the above will lead to Malus pondering how to better train the nurses. If you have NOT read the book "Surgery and Physiology: A Sharran's Primer" found in the small room at the rear of the House of Healing (X: -199 Y: 78) you will have the following choices:

1. [PERSUASION, DC 21] The sisters require a willing volunteer, a master of the art. - Outcome: Nurses kill Malus (Nurses will be neutral)
2. [PERSUASION, DC 21] Why not have them hone their skills on each other? - Outcome: Malus orders nurses to kill each other.
3. [ROGUE][PERSUASION, DC 21 + Advantage] Practice - that's how I got good with a blade. They should spar with each other. - Outcome: Malus orders nurses to kill each other.
4. Attack.

If you HAVE read the book "Surgery and Physiology: A Sharran's Primer" found in the small room at the rear of the House of Healing (X: -199 Y: 78) it will unlock a different conversation path:

1. [INTIMIDATION, DC 18] I have read your treatise. Initiate the final lesson, or die by my hand. Outcome: Nurses kill Malus (Nurses will be neutral)
2. [PERSUASION, DC 18] "Only with sacrifice is mastery gained." For the sisters to learn, you must submit. Outcome: Nurses kill Malus (Nurses will be neutral)
3. [PERSUASION, DC 21] Why not have them hone their skills on each other? - Outcome: Malus orders nurses to kill each other.

If you successfully persuade Malus to have the nurses turn on each other, he now wishes to acquaint you with Shar. There will be a final dialogue check, again, potentially different based on Class which all result in Malus killing himself, if successful:

Shadowheart: [CLERIC] [DECEPTION, DC 21 + Advantage] You do me an honour, but I am not worthy. Show me the way of Shar - I beg of you.

Sorcerer: [SORCERER] [DECEPTION, DC 21 + Advantage] My magic has blinded me - I see now that Shar is the only path. Show me how - I beg of you.

Bard: [BARD] [PERSUASION, DC 21 + Advantage] I am not worthy! Please, show me how a mater works - I would be honoured.

General/Default: [PERSUASION, DC 21]  I would rather acquaint myself - if you show me how.
