Owlbear Cub

[Norinia]

Out of curiosity, What happens to the Owlbear Cub if you don't recruit it?

Because I didn't know I was supposed to talk to the goblin an additional time, and when I came charging out later on after wiping out the 3 generals (so way too much time to backtrack) I couldn't find the Owlbear Cub anywhere, even after the carnage was over.

I didn't have to talk to the goblin an additional time. Only had to ask the cub if it wanted to come to my camp and it showed up about 4 or 5 rests later. I did wipe out everyone in the front courtyard, though.

In my playthrough I did that, but then it said the cub was still scared of the goblins and wouldn't run unless the goblins were 'taken care of'.

I haven't seen the cub since then, since I ran inside to deal with the warband. I didn't realize it was something that could time expire. I thought since the goblin was so proud of the cub that it wouldn't have any trouble living til I got out to wipe out the war band.

Finally showed up, I don't know how many long rests it took, but geez! Well, at least I was able to get the adorable baby before I left Act 1 (Just about done in the Underdark. Surprisingly a lot of stuff to do down here.)

I don't know you can recruit it. Iirc it only gave me kill it out of kindness (Karlach) or leave it to die in the wild or leave simply

Killed his mother, met him at the goblins. Killed the goblins, talked to the cub and offered to join the camp (by talking to the animals).

I met him in the 2nd act during a long rest in the camp. I slipped (did not throw) him food in the dialogue (without talking to the animals), he ran away. Maybe it should be, but the second time I did not see him.

where you rest also effects certain scenes, in Act 2 i returned backt to first act and started to take back to back rests. After 10 or more rests i retruned back to act 2 because no more new scenes triggered. It was hilarious though some scenes which should be triggered earlier got triggered late.

In my playthrough the cubs mom never died (I walked away from them), but the cub appeared a few long rests later in Act 2 regardless.

Afaik the goblins kill the mother if you don't
