While exploring around in the game and completing quests, there comes a circus called the Circus of Last Days. That’s the place where you can interact with a dinosaur named Crimson by feeding him. This leads to becoming friends with the dino.
If you are somehow unable to interact with Crimson, you will be attacked by that dino which will be actually the act of doppelganger. Visiting the circus will take you to a point where the battle happens and the enemy team jump out of nowhere.
Surprisingly, Crimson will be on their side and they will use him in the battle. The only way to stop this is by feeding Crimson before the battle begins. Now, the question remains how to feed Crimson in BG3? Find out how you can do this down below.
Finding Crimson in The Circus of Last Days
Feeding Crimson is the only way to keep him out of the battle. But to do this you must find him in the circus before you proceed to your next destination. If you somehow try to head out of the circus without feeding Crimson then you must kill him during the battle.
Finding Crimson isn’t that hard, he is actually locked up in a cage. Also, you can identify him with his red-colored body. His cage is located close to the stage, Dribbles the Clown can be seen running show on it.
Once you have spotted his cage, you can speak to him with the help of the spell Speak with Animals. You will find out that he is just hungry and locked up in a cage where he can’t get anything to eat by himself. So, you must free him and feed him to befriend the dino.
Feeding Crimson in The Circus of Last Days
Now, that you have reached at Crimson’s cage, it is time to free him up. For that, you are gonna need to open the lock. This can be done with the help of a key, look for a nearby guard, and pickpocket the key from him.
And if you are not planning for the pickpocket then you are only left with breaking the lock. Either way, Crimson will be freed from the cage.
Now, it’s time to feed him so that he will see you as a friend. Since Crimson is a dino, he will only take meaty things. So, don’t forget to bring some meat loaves in your pocket. They will come in handy at this point.
You can also look around the circus and grab some meat from the kitchen area or other containers. Feeding him triggers a scene where Crimson feels ashamed and mentions that he was close to killing you.
Once the scene finishes, Crimson runs away from the circus and at this point, you can continue your journey without the fear of encountering Crimson during the battle.
