The Gremishka: A Baldur’s Gate 3 Christmas Tale

The creature at the heart of this festive tale is the gremishka, a small, cat-like being born from the chaos of unstable magic. These creatures share a resemblance to gremlins, with the caveat that they are relatively harmless unless magic is used upon them. When provoked by magical means, they become a formidable threat, especially to those who wield the arcane arts. Gremishkas are known for their penchant for hunting and tormenting magic users, much like cats with a very particular focus.

• Small, cat-like appearance
• Created from unstable magic
• Non-threatening unless magic is used on them
• Known to hunt and torment magic users

The advent calendar’s first day introduces participants to the first chapter of ‘How the Gremishka Stole Christmas.’ The poem begins with an ominous stanza:

In the taverns and halls where gossip’s most prevalent
Is where tales are whispered of a creature malevolent
Who appears once a year on the feast of midwinter
To take from the revelers knee-caps, noses, and fingers.

“She loathes Christmas joy, the mirth and the cheer,”
Or so says your nan, her eyes widened with fear.
“Never go to ‘er dwellings in the caves ‘cross the river,
Else the Gremishka will get ya and she’ll make you her dinner.”

This excerpt sets the stage for a whimsical yet darkly humorous narrative that is sure to captivate the imaginations of Baldur’s Gate 3 enthusiasts.
