Your only chance as a female pc is --unfortunately-- Anomen!

Normally there is no one else "available"; and I don't know if someone has made a script for romancing other male NPC...

What do you mean with "unfortunately"? Why do almost everyone here on this board dislike the greatly underestimated fighter/cleric. Is it because he is ****y and unsure of himself in the beginning or what? What have I missed?

Actually, the Anomen romance is quite good :) His personality improves with women, finding flowers in dank dungeons, 'myladying' a person nicely :)

As to other romances, I know you can get a Soulafein Romance Patch, which I am currently trying out.

It's found at:

We're quite a few who like him, too, only we make less noice. There was a female fanclub of Anomen a long time ago - if you make a search I'm sure you'll find it. Anomen is one of the *very* best NPCs.

You're right. i never liked him, but now i\m playing an female wildmage, and wanted a romance.
His fighterclass is very good, you notice he's better then a normal cleric in fighting.

When he passes his test, he get's 16wisdom, and that's more then enough for a cleric (more is offcource always welcome)
And there are ways to make you wisdom higher! (not as many as i would like to see)

I actually don't find him annoying, and he is a good NPC, powerwise.

Also, when you meet him, this dialogue line you can choose makes up for any annoyences:

Where did you get that idiotic accent? Reading to many romance novels?

:D

I thought the best party would be you as a thief class, viconia, Edwin, Korgan (the 3evil/best NPC's of the game)
And only 4 characters makes you level up faster!

@ Lynariel:

I don't dislike Anomen: taking him twice with me through the game wouldn't exactly mean I dislike him. What bothers me, however, is his arrogant attitude, especially in the begining.

And about my "unfortunately" word: As a romance interest I personally would prefer Keldorn or Valygar.

Cheers

Keldorn is married!
Valygar is a nice choice, Yoshimo would be intresting to, maybe they should have made a Yoshimo romance in witch, if you succeeded he would stay alive......

@ Stilgar:

What I meant is that there should had been be more options about female PCs, as it is for male PCs: Jaheira, Aerie, Viconia: three women for every taste --almost. But when it comes to male romance interest, there is only one choice to stick with: Anomen.

It sounds a bit unfair to me.

@ Lynariel:

No offense taken. Don't worry! ;) :D

@Aubrey:

You're right, but on the other hand, if you make a poll here about if people play male or female NPC's i would predict it at
75%male 25%female
So in that case it's equally divided!

For female players:
You can download Soulaufein Romance Mod,
or waiting for Kelsey, a new NPC sorceror.
Soon the mod will be ready I think.

Male players, like me, could be interested in having a sorceror
for the first time!
