Speaking of the beggar,does anyone know what Anomen's reaction is,being Lawful Neutral (before successfully passing his Test).Even Viconia will stick up for the beggar.

I've read various posts about people debating whether to resurrect Sarevok and have him join their party,or leave his deceased state unaltered.Just wondered if anyone has considered the third,riskier option : to resurrect him,and send him on his way?

Potentially dangerous?Possibly,but this whole ...

Not necessarily.Bhaal himself was an assassin,and already quite evil,before he was deified.Becoming a god didn't make him ...

Hmmm,I hadn't actually thought of that.The location of the Valley wouldn't be a secret among the other ...

If,at the end of T.O.B.,the PC is elevated to godhood,which of the love interests would be willing to accompany him/her?

For example,I can't see Aerie or Anomen wanting to take up residence in the Abyss.Viconia might,and maybe Jaheira.It's also possible that such relationships between mortals and ...

Anyone curious about the way arcane magic seems to be viewed among the Drow?Talking to,say,one of the merchants in the Ust Natha bazaar,occasionally uses the audio dialogue "The path to supremacy for a male lies either in the bedchamber,or the books of the mages."

Also,if,say Nalia or Imoen talk to ...

Maybe in T.O.B.,Viconia runs off with Sarevok.

Just wondering if it was possible that amid dealing with other Bhaalspawn run amok,you could be subject to the occasional random attack by one or more Handmaidens of Lolth in T.O.B.

Given that you did all the Ust Natha quests,by the end of Chapter 5 you would have done the following :

a)killed a ...

True enough.Take Keldorn,for example.This is a man dedicated to upholding the principles of honour.Yet,upon learning that his wife has been seeing another man,and if left to his own devices,has the guy ...

Are you talking about the Boots of Etherealness?If so,you can find them in the Drow section of the Sahaugin City-Of-Caverns,but you'll need to play the game with the Imps first.

As to what they do,they make the wearer ethereal once per day for 30 seconds,effectively granting immunity to normal ...

Regarding the romance choices for male PC's,I would probably go with Viconia,the reason being the protaganist,a Child of Bhaal,could identify being the object of fear and distrust,simply because of what he is.I found the Jaheira romance somewhat uncomfortable,seeing as it takes place so soon after ...

Regarding Elvenking's comment about Viconia being no angel,I totally agree.The story about her revenge on the farmers is an example,but considering the fact that,even though it's more implied than stated,they raped her while she was unconscious,what else should she have done?Going to the local law ...

Just wondering if anybody thinks that Neutral Evil isn't really a fitting alignment for Viconia.I know that your reputation drops if you accept her into the party,but that's only because she is a Drow Elf (no loss of reputation in the case of Edwin or Korgan).Any thoughts on this?

What AI scripts are you using for your party?The problem might be that when one or more party members are Dire Charmed/Dominated and their circles turn red,the rest of the party treats them as an enemy for the purposes of their individual scripts,and attacks.When the Dire Charm wears off,the ...

How about a Pit Fiend vs. a bunch of peasants?

Anyone noticed that,great as Chain Contingency is,it doesn't function according to it's description in the manual.It states that spells of any level can be used,yet when choosing what spells go into the Contingency,you can only go as far as level 8.I picked this spell initially,intending Timestop to ...

Sorry Zartuul,my Sorcerer was designed to be part of a group,hence most of his spells were chosen for the purpose of attacking and defending against enemy spellcasters,e.g. Liches,Cowled Wizards,etc.

Here's a list of my 20th level Sorcerer's spells :

1.Chromatic Orb,Identify,Magic Missile,Protection From Petrification,Shield
2.Blur,Horror,Resist Fear,Vocalize,Web
3.Fireball,Flame Arrow,Non-Detection,Protection From Fire
4.Fireshield Blue,Greater Malison,Stoneskin,Teleport Field
5.Breach ...

Irenicus is easy,if you have the right character fighting him,i.e. Keldorn wielding Carsomyr.I had the PC,a 20th level sorcerer,
face him in a one-on-one magical duel (guess
he wanted to prove once and for all who the
better wizard was).Even then Irenicus wasn't
much of a problem.Disappointing ...
