General Ketheric Thorm plays one of the main villains in Baldur’s Gate 3, unless you side with him. This game is heavily choice-based, letting you follow the cult of the Absolute, or go against it completely. Thorm follows the Absolute, and is one of the top three followers. If you’re playing a good, heroic character, you’ll eventually take down all three, and even try to abolish the Absolute.

You’ll need to be careful though, as Thorm is quite powerful. During your journey in the main story, you’re going to head to Moonrise Towers to find the source of this cult. Here, you’ll soon meet Thorm for the first time. Seeing as J. K. Simmons is a very notable actor, you’ll probably get a lot of scenes with Thorm, whether you side with him or not.

You may have to wait until you’re at a properly-high level before taking this guy down. The two other top followers of the Absolute are also pretty strong, so facing them in combat won’t be easy. Nevertheless, Thorm is a prominent character in Baldur’s Gate 3 played by an excellent actor!

Baldur’s Gate 3 is available on Steam.
