who is and how do you get baeloth?

I need answers!!!

Baeloth is the main antagonist of The Black Pits. In the main Baldur's Gate campaign, he is an Easter egg. You can get him to join you there by

visiting the tower in Larswood when your main character is level 5+ in at least one class.

Oh sweet. Thanks!

Does he have banters? IF yes, how many?

How is the relationship between him and the main character?

I can't remember whether he has banters with other NPCs, but he acts like a cowardly weasel and clown in BG1 - in sharp contrast to his flagrantly evil persona in the Black Pits. However, he is probably the most useful and efficient spellcaster in the game.

Because Baeloth is a drow, he causes you to lose 2 rep points every time that he is accepted into the party. If your rep goes over 18, instead of instantly splitting with the party, he will beg to be allowed to stay - and if you accept, it will cause your rep to drop back down under 18, to levels that are "acceptable" to him.

Thanks for the answer.

Interesting. Does this mean that your rep will never go over 18, and thus evil characters will always stick around?

Given the fact that he was a PIA to me in the Pits, and was still obnoxious even after having been exiled from the Underdark, I took great pleasure in killing his Drow butt rather than recruiting him. Got a Robe of the Evil Archmagi out of it. Unfortunately, it's worth 10,000 gold, but no one seems to want to buy it. Oh well.

It is because it's marked as Stolen (and almost nobody buys stolen stuff in BG1). Try selling it to thieves.

He doesn't have banters per-se, but he does comment on various areas throughout the game as you enter them. Usually these are plot central areas, such as the Undercity or Baldur's Gate.
