Gawin is an NPC in Divinity: Original Sin 2.
Gawin information
- Gawin is an Aerotheurge vendor.
- Gawin claims to have been in Fort Joy for "too long," and is planning to escape. However, in order to do so he needs the help of someone who knows the Teleportation skill. Hearing out his plan starts the quest The Teleporter.
Gawin location
- Gawin first appears north-east of the bonfire in the Fort Joy Ghetto. ( X:182 | Y:166 )
- After telling Gawin you can teleport him, he moves to just outside the hidden alcove in the Fort Joy Beach (X: 242 | Y: 251)
- Once you meet up with Gawin, he leads you to a cliff in the hidden alcove ( X: 280 | Y: 262 )
Notes
- Details on Gawin's quest can be found on The Teleporter.
- Be Warned: Progressing the quest will result in Gawin being unavailable, and you will not be able to buy Aerotheurge skill books from him anymore.
- Gawin gives 200 XP if killed.
- Gawin's Robe is a unique piece of armour that Gawin drops on death.

Its April 2022 - Gawin was in the Flesner's chamber, dead, and I was able to get the spellbooks. That's if you let him escape in the first place - he doesn't really make it out.

I always found extremely sad that Gawin always carries a mug of beer with him. Maybe he was just holding it until he was free from Reaper's Eye. Douche or not, he had dreams. Just like us, he hoped for better days.

I somehow got him to stay alive. I cleared out the magisters, undead, voidwoken dweller, and wendigo before doing his quest and he just ran to x:421 y:204 near the vines that lead to where Tarlene is chilling next to the shrieker. I think I bugged him out since the wiki says he dies even if there are no enemies. I can't talk to him, or pickpocket, but I can still kill him for his books. Haha!

In an instance where you come back to do his quest well after, if your level is high enough you will just kill him by using teleport (the actual spell, haven't tried gloves) this is likely due to scaling (either by int, or level). Just an interesting tidbit.

you can teleport companion first, then him. When he says hes dialog attack him. U get 1200 exp plus u kill him and get his loot.
I stole 1 book and some minor loot from him prior to teleporting him to the ledge, then I teleported him to the ledge (gaining 1200 xp), waited for the gloves to recharge, teleported my party member to the ledge, gave him the gloves, waited for Gawin to die, teleported his body to me and got all of his other skill books and his robe. Then I just gave the gloves to my PC and teleported the character with the loot back to the party. No need for sneaking or learning the Leap skill, everything can be done using the Gloves of Teleportation.

Before completing quest, give him 100 gold to get to 100 attitude. Then buy 3 books first from him. Then kill him to gain the other 4 aerotheurge skill books + Gawin's Robe + 200 XP for kill. You won't get the money back, but it's def a discount.

He dropped 5 of his 6 books on death (might be rng though?). Was able to complete the quest and loot him right away by teleporting him to his destination then immediately attacking him with a scroll. Once dead, I could teleport his corpse back to me and loot it then trade the gloves to a party member to teleport me back up and go on my merry way.

Depending on when you talk to him, he will run into one of several groups of mobs. The pier with the magisters, the beach with the undead (near the witch), the flaming pigs area, and then his forced demise. I didn't try an AoE, but he was not able to be directly targetted once ported to the far side (had rest of my party camped). Note that you can't get stuck here unless you ignored all waypoints somehow, and you can use them to port your group together again. You could probably cut him off using the bridge waypoint as well, assuming the areas between are clear.

For the tomes u want to get level 4 and as long as you teleport one of your party member over and wait for Gawin to die, you can sneak (Default key 'C') to loot the corpse containing the valuables (tomes and chestpiece). Worked for me at least, dont need any sort of leap skill. Remember to save because there's some weird RNG with the dying position sometimes.

1. Start the Quest 2. Kill the Crocodiles and loot the Teleportation Gloves 3. Inform him that you have the gloves 4. Get to level four and learn a leap skill 5. Go to him and trade so you see his inventory 6. Exit inventory and teleport him to the ledge 7. After he teleports you to the ledge, leap to the other side 8. Teleport him over to you for 1200 XP 9. Follow him as he runs into a fight with the magisters at the pier 10. Kill him with a ranged weapon from behind for 200 XP 11. Go back and loot his body Side Note: If you kill an NPC, they drop random items or nothing at all unless a unique item comes from them. When you check their inventory via trading, they will usually have the more expensive stuff on their person as loot. Essentially, Gawain would just drop his robe if you didn't trade him, but because you checked his inventory, he will also drop his more expensive skill books which is why you waited for level four to finish this quest. Hope this helps for those of you trying to conserve funds.

If you wait till 4, you can tp your party over before sending him, engage the fight, and get not only the quest bonus, but also all his books.

He betrayed me, later when i made it to the Fort Joy docks, his corpse was laying there with all the books i didnt purchase.

If you can aggro him after he betrays you, he'll teleport you over in the fight and try to fight you.

Dear ALl; i just played into the deepest dungeons of the fort joy prison - Found Kniles- his journal AND GAWIN dead in his prison :) #betrayal to his own death - #Retard for not stayin after all the teleporting - 4x5 20s per teleport is a bit much.. make it 3 - :D

After teleporting him across to the dock, I went ahead and fought all the battles up until the Voidwoken Deepdweller. I ran ahead of him and when I was fighting, he sat back and cowered. Then, after the battle he ran to his usual spot and fell over dead. Is it possible to keep him alive?

Some devs are definetly stupid to screw you over for completing his stupid quest the first time. Now I cant buy the spells I want for a while just because troll devs. Get fired!

If you managed to fight along side him at the peer he will continue running into the wood, you will likely find him dead at the spot where the big ol voidwoken appears.
After comlete the quest with teleportation Gawin on the other side, later i find him on the battle with magisters, we fight together and after battle without a word he goes away to the wood, but i kill him
If you talk to her with an elf party member, (before you tell her that her daughter is dead), it will open up more dialog. Note: you can only talk to her with the elf a couple times before she will ignore you.

How long will I have to wait for an opportunity to find/craft/buy aerotheurge skill books after Gawin dies during his quest? Or should I just wait to complete his quest until after I've bought all his aero books?

If you teleport him to the beach below he will go into the cave and then you will find his body in the room with the boss with the meat golems and get some quite good stuff off his corpse (as long as you have not killed the boss first)

Possibly the most pointless betrayal ever in a video game. Makes sense from a gameplay perspective but the writing doesn't explain why he would rather make an enemy out of you than teleport you and go your separate ways or better yet stick with you for protection (you just managed to kill 3 wizard crocodiles after all). Horrible writing in my opinion.

If you complete his quest he ditches you... A problem for anyone wanting areotheurge spells

There is a grave for him in Stonegarden, which is interesting. He's Gwydain's (Hannag's apprentice) brother, and his gravestone isn't complimentary (brother to Gwydian, undeservedly loved, unreservedly condemned, may the Seven withhold their grace.) Since he was in Fort Joy, that means one of two things is happening. 1.), The Magisters are sending bodies back from Fort Joy when people die so they can be properly buried, or 2.) When people are taken to Fort Joy, they're assumed to be dead. Given the Magisters' behavior, I'm betting on option 2.
