The main cast aren't the only great characters in this game, who are your favorites?

I loved Alfira (Rebecca Hanssen) Isobel (Mia Foo), and Zevlor. All 3 were great casting choices but I can't figure out who played Zevlor. Any idea?

I really liked him, too! I saw an interview with him where he talks about his song and how he sent it to friends unprompted haha

I'm torn about the writing for Omeluum but not his character exactly...I just feel like the emperor would have something to say about it since he says he's the only mindflayer to escape. They should have met in game imo

Maybe they both kill other mindflayers on sight since they would assume the other mindflayer is controlled by the Absolute?

Since the emperor is in your head all the time, you'd think he'd be able to figure out that Omeluum is free when he tries to remove the worm for you.

Not the biggest plot hole or anything, I just expected more from that line.

Also to be fair - I've stolen the egg in every game I've played not knowing that it prevents me from seeing Omeluum in act 3. So I might be totally wrong with my assessment

Steal the egg but also kill Esther. Then you can get the money for the egg from the Society and Omeluum still lives. Alternatively sell her the owlbear egg. She doesn't know the difference.

I sold her the owlbear egg, then she got angry at me (can't remember why) and I knocked her out and took the egg back.

Interesting! Thanks for the tip. I didn't even make the connection until my friend said he saved Omeluum from the iron throne and I had no idea what he was talking about.
