Jaheira is a recruitable companion inBaldur’s Gate 3. She is a member of the Harpers and is a popular fighter with a lot of history in Faerûn. You meet this snarky half-elf in Act Two at the Last-Light Inn, and you’ll be able to invite her to join your party towards the end of the act.

By default, Jaheira is a druid of the circle of the land subclass, but you can change up her class once you have her officially join your party. Once she’s recruited, you can build her level-by-level up to your current level.
