Minsc was a kind-hearted—but rather addled— Rashemaar warrior that enjoyed many adventures across the Sword Coast and beyond. He joined many adventuring parties throughout the 14th and 15th centuries DR, including the Heroes of Baldur’s Gate. Minsc was famously known for his habit of talking to a hamster called Boo, who he believed was a miniature giant space hamster, despite no one else ever witnessing any evidence of this.
“Where goes the stench of evil, so goes the cleansing wind of Minsc and Boo.”
