Pidia, Carian Servant Interactions

Sells Valuable Loot

Pidia Merchant Inventory

Pidia will immediately become available as a merchant once you reach his secret location. Speak to him and he sell you valuable items like Celestial Dew and even a Larval Tear.

After Patch 1.03, Pidia also starts selling the Weathered Map item that shows you the location of the Amber Starlight needed for Seluvis' questline. It can be bought even before you meet Ranni or Seluvis.

Death by Puppet

Pidia Death

Once Seluvis dies due to either the end of Ranni's questline or your betrayal of Ranni, Pidia will be killed by the now master-less puppets of Caria Manor.

Make your way to the same cliff marked by a Cerulean Tear Scarab and you will hear him plead for his life before he is killed. You can loot Pidia's Bell Bearing from his body as well as a puppet called Dolores the Sleeping Arrow.

Lore and Trivia

Lore

  • Pidia is a servant of the Carian Royal Family. Currently, he is charged with maintaining the many dolls that guard the Caria Manor. On the side, he sells valuable items from his storeroom to the Tarnished.
  • Pidia, while claiming to be a lowly servant, in fact also partakes in Seluvis' brand of puppetry. In his final moments, he asks how the now re-animated puppets could not enjoy the bliss he showered them with.

Trivia

  • When Pidia dies he drops his puppet, Dolores the Sleeping Arrow. This particular puppet was a friend to both Gideon Ofnir and Seluvis. Having control over such a puppet only meant that Pidia was in league with the traitorous sorcerer. This explains his death once Seluvis is killed.

Pidia, Carian Servant Quotes

"O-oh! Y-you! I, er, sorry, your worship... I-I apologise for any offence given. I am Pidia. Servant to the Carian royal family. I am charged with maintaining these g-ghastly dolls."
"Ahh, your worship, allow me to be of use. Other than the puppets, there are some very fine things up here in this storeroom. Why not pick something out, before you go? But please, can you offer poor ill-starred Pidia a little something by way of compensation?"
"Y-you're my puppets! I loved you with all I have! How could you forget...such bliss? Ouch. That hurts! Please, I beg you, cease this cruelty!"
