Branwen

"Branwen reveals that she left her home of Seawolf in the Norheim Isles at an early age. She was apparently reviled by her own people for wanting to become a priest, a station reserved exclusively for the men of the village. She harbors no resentment, realizing that her faith must face such tests or be worthless. She traveled the coast, offering her services to local militias, and eventually came into the employ of an adventuring troupe in the Nashkel area. Branwen had no idea that the group was participating in banditry however, and on their first raid, she balked at attacking a caravan of unarmed merchants. She rebelled and a mage named Tranzig turned her to stone in the ensuing fight. Despite the unfavorable outcome, Branwen feels that Tempus views her actions approvingly. To attack those that are unarmed is the basest of villainy."

- Character description from the Baldur's Gate computer game

Branwen is a human cleric from the Baldur's Gate computer game. She is voiced by Bernadette Sullivan.

Branwen, a loyal and dependable warrior maiden of the god Tempus, was turned to stone by the bandit mage Tranzig, and ended up as a circus attraction at the Nashkel Carnival. If the party uses a scroll of stone to flesh to cure her of her condition (one can be bought or pickpocketed nearby), she will offer to join them in their quest. Later in the adventure the party will come face to face with Tranzig, and after defeating him Branwen will remain in the party for the duration of the game.

In Baldur's Gate II: Shadows of Amn, Branwen appears briefly in the tutorial, providing instructional help to the protagonist.
