Who is the most annoying NPC in BGII SoA?

I know it is not the most popular choice on my part but i think Minsc is the most annoying in BGII-He's just too loud. I think I need earplugs when he yells. I also think his ignorance is relatively annoying aswell. I kind of like Boo though.

I have to agree about Minsc and his loud yelling. Also as I have said before his cry he gives when he gets wounded is loud and makes him sound like he's getting pounded worse that he really is, creating the impression that he is a big wussy.

I would have to put a vote in for Nalia, her screams of "For The Needy!" and her comment about "how are we helping the less fortunate trudging around here" bug me.

But I think Anomen is the most annoying character (in terms of voice acting). He's a great party-member though.

If we're talking voices, the real pain-in-the-armored-butt has to be Imoen. Sure, her character is great and her spells are wonderful, but that endlessly chirpy, perky voice makes me want to sell her to Irenicus and do something else.

Aerie: her self-righteousness (esp. when dealing with H'D over her) and whining about herself make me almost sick. Sometimes I strongly agree with Viconia's comments about this wench

Man, how cool Viconia is

Minsc must die a slow and painful death. Dynaheir probably wasn't killed by Irenicus but impaled herself on a sharpened shoehorn so she wouldn't have to listen to his voice again.

Anomen a close second.

The most annoying character in my opinion(runs for cover)Jan.The little arrogant,annoying gnome makes me sick with his voice and lame humor.

At this point in my game Jaheira is starting to get on my nerves. "I hope this isn't a sign of things to come, we must strive to maintain balance." Excuse the hell out of me for not being balanced enough.

Anomen has the most anoying voice but Jaheria the most anoying lines.

Yeah, all that balance stuff doesn't exactly make me feel warm and fuzzy inside either.

She's not exactly balanced either is she, tending to lean towards good if you ask me

Nalia hands down the most annoying character in the game. If guns existed, I'd put her before the firing squad. For the needy? SHUTP UP! Voice set changes in ToB though, huwway! Haven't heard it.

Anomen is pretty bad though, "Did you know I single-handidly conquered the known universe?" Yes Anomen, of course Anomen.

Bah Fable, I think it's your negative attitude rather than Imoen, that's at fault

Definetely Imoen..."uhh...this place is just to darn creapy"...man whining little *****. Actually i wonder why all the female NPC's you're supposed to have some sort of a relationship with are constantly nagging about pain and emotions and stuff...it's really giving me a déja-vu experience...

Btw...I really really like soloing my totemic druid! Or maybe I'm just happy and drunk with life...sleep well.

For me.. its got to be Aerie. I dunno.. she is jut too whiney for the average human (then again, she's no human eh? hehe). But seriously, all the good aligned guys in ToB are annoying.. and they aren't even powerful (except for Anomen)..

I find Keldorn annoying, especially his soppy quest. 'O, Keldorn, I'm having an affair' 'but i still love you' 'but your never here! your always on some quest! I hate you!' 'but I love you' 'Kiss me!'
I'm sure you get the idea... It's like some sort of cheesy soap opera!

I can't stand Imoen's voice. No way she is my sister!

Minsc is great! I wish all heroes (are you listening Keldorn?) would talk like him.

Why do some people hate imoen?She;s one of the main characters and I think her story,voice and powers rule.

Anomen takes the prize in all categories -- voice, personality and lines. Can't say I care much for Haer'Dalis either.

Aerie isn't too bad, except for that inane "I'm tired" line that drives me up the wall every bloody time.

Yuusuke · Post by **Yuusuke** » Sun Oct 21, 2001 12:10 pm

Well, Imoen might be cheery but she can really lighten the mood in a dark dungeon.

I can definitely understand why some people find Keldorn annoying, because he has soo many objections to just about everything the group does. At least he actually believes in all that crap and isn't a hypocrite...

...like Korgan, little chicken sh*t. Started wussing out on my on against Adalon.

Aerie can be annoying simply because of her super low con. She gets tired too easily.

Edwin can be annoying also, but his 'annoying' is more like, "Ha ha, you suck." than, "F you, you suck."

But I'm making a stand on Minsc, he sucks! And Jan rocks! Especially his story about being eaten by an avatar of Lolth when paired up with Viconia.

(The scene: a dark dungeon. Irenicus is writing at a desk. Behind him, in a cage, stands Imoen.)

IMOEN: So, we gonna do something, yet?

IRENICUS: (writing) I told you, later. I'm busy, now.

IMOEN: Hey, ya know, it's kinda dingy down here, but if you just look on the bright side, I'm sure things wil perk up!

IRENICUS: (louder) I'm sure you're right, now just let me concentrate.

IMOEN: It's always darkest before the dawn. In for a penny, in for a pound. Stout heart wins through in the end!

IRENICUS: (throwing down his quill pen) Will you shut up, child! I've had enough of your insensible nattering to last me a lifetime!

IMOEN: (sniffs) I really don't know what you mean.

IRENICUS: I mean that I had you brought here at considerable magical expense for some recondite experiments two days ago. You should be sobbing and pleading with me by now, and instead, you stand there, citing insipid proverbs about cheering up and keeping a happy smile!

IMOEN: That's happy face.

IRENICUS: I DON'T NEED TO KNOW THAT! You are perky, cheerful, and good humored in a bright sunshiny way that makes me think of cows lowing across a white picket fence. DO YOU HAVE ANY HOW THAT MAKES A REPUTABLE EVIL WIZARD LIKE MYSELF FEEL?

IMOEN: Well, all I can say is, I told ya so!

IRENICUS GAAAHHH! (summons forth a golem) You: open the gates, and let the Thieves Guild miscreants in. Yes, all of them.

GOLEM: But Master, they will try to free your slave.

IRENICUS: Of course they will, idiot. That's the whole idea. {suddenly struck by an idea, writes} Note...to...self...next time a subject for my experiments...bring one of those silent type adventurers from Icewind Dale. {looks up} Yes. Much better. {smiles}
