In the second map of the Shaergaen (?) Ford so are the party to meet with some priestess of Selune.
Has anyone noticed that she looks just like Imoen in BG2? That is without armor than... It really made me smile when i found out :D

Has anyone else found anything from some other BIS/Interplay game that could be found in IWD2?
If there's something more important than my ego. I want it caught and shot now.

Well I havent noticed that yet as I only bought the game yesterday. :D

But I do know they use they same general physical profile grahpics that are in BG2, so it will be hard to catch if there are any profiles that look uniquely like BG2 characters. I mean look at Cernd's graphics...he looks like a good amount of people. :D

So maybe it was your imagination, or maybe Black Isle is having some fun. :D

I'm sure you caught the voice of the balloon-piloting gnome. The same actor was Jan Jansen, in BG2. There are also frequent good-natured digs at IWD1, usually in the form of recalling the old adventurers and the effects they had on good and evil folks, alike.

Many of the character portraits were available for BG2, although I feel sure some of them were on fan sites.

Also the girl voice for the narrator is the same actress that did Aerie's voice. I find this better suits her. Good voice, but I hated Aerie. :D

@Fable Yes...I actually didnt realize that till you mentioned that. Now it seems so obvious. I knew I heard it before...
