Dead person, cant bring back... help!

Post by Chupacabras »

Ok, so i'm in chapter 2 and playing multiplayer by myself.. I went to the Twisted Rune and killed everyone, but aerie, viconia and minsc died in the battle. Well, i picked up all i could and used the eye to get back out, but i cant seem to resurrect viconia, i mean i'll cast the spell and she'll still be dead, however i can bring aerie and minsc back to life.. umm. help? I also noticed that she somehow got to -32/58 hp!! Negative!!! but none of the other dead characters seem to have this problem...

What difficulty level are you playing at? IIRC, if you have less than -10 hit points in core AD&D, you can't be resurrected. Try setting the difficulty setting lower and see if that helps.
There's nothing a little poison couldn't cure...

What happened here was the gradual habituation of the people, ... to receiving decisions deliberated in secret; to believing that the situation was so complicated that the government had to act on information which the people could not understand, or so dangerous that, even if he people could understand it, it could not be released because of national security.

What Soujourner said. I've also found for some reason that on some occasions the Raise Dead spell will fail, while a Resurrect wand (applied instantly afterwards) won't.
To the Righteous belong the fruits of violent victory. The rest of us will have to settle for warm friends, warm lovers, and a wink from a quietly supportive universe.

If her portrait is still there she can be resurrected, if not she is gone for good.

In BG1 there was the problem with healing Viconia, because of her high magic resistance the spells just wouldn't work on her.
This could be similar, the wands in the game don't seem to notice any resistances, so use the rod of resurrection instead.
