Need more info, what happened just before she starts to die? Where are you at in the game, SoA or ToB?

Any info would help.

Did you save the game just right after she was drained of intelligence by mind flayer, or levels by vampire? What are their level or stats?

Go ahead and send me your saved game, I'll check it out, sounds interesting.

nope, her portrait does not dissappear and i did not get level drained or attacked by a mind flayer. she's just dead. but the thing is, she cant be revived. if any more of you guys want to check it out u can. bcuz this is the most bizzare thing ive ever seen. and its not only viconia, its aerie too. and if u play longer, one of your characters strength might goto 2!! and be encumbered forever, and cant wear armor. damn i feel so bad for myself. anyone who wants the saved game just reply.

Couple or suggestions, or three...

Do a virus check, you may have been infected.

Reinstall the game with the Bioware patch. You're saved games aren't nuked when you uninstall.

See if you have an "auto-save" from a few minutes before this happened.

Bits and bytes do strange things some time. I had a main character's charisma inexplicably lowered to 2 for some reason.

Lorsdan was correct it was a intelligence drain. Wasn't sure exactly how to fix that in game, I never ran into that problem. So I fixed his save with Shadowkeeper and sent it back to him with the program for just those kind of emergencies.
