Valygar Corthala, Baldur's Gate 2 BG2 Companion


Valygar BG2



Valygar Location


Valygar Corthala is a Baldur's Gate companion in BioWare's cRPG of 2000, Baldur's Gate 2. Valygar is found in his cabin in the north of Umar Hills in Chapter 2. Speak to Delon in the Government District to get UH map-marked. Either Valygar or his corpse is needed in order to enter the Planar Sphere.

While an undeniably solid companion, Valygar would have been much cooler if he was an Archee BG2 or could have been dual-classed to Cleric.

His weapons of choice are Celestial Fury BG2 and Staff of the Ram BG2.

Valygar's Stats


Valygar has strong martial stats as Stalker BG2. He doesn't need items to fix his stats.


Valygar's Biography


When asked about his past, VALYGAR is silent for a long time and his face becomes grim.  He explains briefly that he is the last of the Corthala noble line, a family that was once one of the wealthiest in Amn.  The Corthalas have always been cursed with magical ability, however, and Valygar spits the words with great derision.  Every Corthala who has used their magical talents has become obsessed with them and ultimately come to a grievous end.  His mother was the most recent victim, although the ranger does not elaborate on the point.  Valygar intends to fulfill his family's oath to find and destroy their ancestor, Lavok, and then he intends to let his cursed bloodline die out once and for all. 


Valygar comes equipped with weapon and armor.
