(Possible spoiler about ending of bg2 below..):

I'd suspect that you probably save Vic from Llolth in the upcoming expansion; probably not a direct assault upon the Demonweb, possibly a long subplot of the expansion...

BG III.. who knows? Perhaps the player character is a half-drow/ son (or daughter)of a bhaalspawn, with the whole point of the game being him-or-her finding out the true nature of his parentage, while dodging the Cowelled Wizards (or should I say Cult of Bhaal?) at every turn. It would certainly make for an interesting game.

I would more see a lateral shift for Viconia than a complete shift. I could see her shifting from Neutral Evil to True Neutral, but not to Chaotic Neutral.

And...Spoiler Alert:

I wonder who those cloaked guys were at the end of the game. I think there were 7 or 8 of them, so my idea of the Council of 6 was blown apart.

Lloth is a arrogant godess that is losing power among the Drow (only the ones that have little choice on the matter) I would not be suprised if her daugther Elistree becames more powerful(she does no like to intervive in the lives of her folowers) but I think that will be only a subplot in BG III after all there a lot of races to chose from in the game, I play a elf and I like that she is acepted among her kind (but not to go to evermeet).
Well we just see.

I would never part with Viconia. She's hot. You gotta love Korgan's "Me axe be bloody ready!". Minsc's a dork. I'd sooner have Jaheira on my team than that dolt, and that says alot because Jaheira irritates the bejesus outta me. Treehuggers bite.

Well, I'll be the odd one, but I like Aerie. She's just so sweet and adorable. "I won't let my friends be hurt!" In BG1, I just loved Xzar and Montaron's squabbling. Montaron:"The mad wizard's dead! Saves me the trouble." Too bad I had to kick them out or risk them rebelling against my good party.

hey keep em up and since I have'nt voted I'll vote for Cernd cause he turns to a werewolf and he looks kool but I hate it when I take his portrait for my character and he ends up with this scotish crap portrait that does'nt even look like a Druid!!!

For BG1, I'd have to say it's a toss-up between Xzar, who I just LOVED, ("Your voice is ambrosia...Stop touching meeeee!!") Xan, who was cute and I couldn't help but let Kik'th play the sarcastic sunshine to all his morose sardonicness...(Xan: "Our quest is vain!" Kik'th : (**Off-screen wiggles**)"Is THIS in vain?!" Xan : (**Passes out**)

and Shar-Teel, I liked a lot too... ("If it bleeds, I can kill it." ...YEAH!)
Oh, btw: Rapier, nice choice of quote for Irenicus. I really liked that one too.

But for BG2? My favourites are certainly Minsc (To take a couple BG1 quotes, these were his best: "Fool me once, shame on you. Fool me twice, watch it! I'm HUGE!"

and "Make way, evil!! I'm armed to the teeth and packing a HAMSTER!"), and probably Viconia ("Suddenly I long for the half-god's hands upon my dark skin..." --Rowr.--) or Haer'Dalis ("Urgent, is it?"/**Whistles**) Because he makes me laugh. Like Coran & Garrick did in BG1.

Yes, I know that was a huge post. Forgive me?

Apex36; Are you using Haer'Dalis? If not, use the ShadowKeeper to change Cernd's portrait to this one and make Cernd a half-elf. Looks much better, I promise. The only draw-back is that you have to give up his personal items (his quests work fine though). On the other hand, they aren't that great - you'll find plenty of better ones.

Thanks for the advice it worked

I'm rather partial to the stuff Yoshimo says. <sarcastic tone> "Very well...hiii-yaa" and "I can dance the head of a pin, as well!"

And Minsc gets some good ones too. "A stinking pit of evil. Cover your nose Boo. WE WILL LEAVE NO CREVASSE UNTOUCHED!!"

I actually like Yoshi a lot! even though he betrays you...he isn't really a bad guy. And he preferred to die by your sword.

Next comes Minsc and Boo, who are just so cute and hilarious! Pair them with Jan for constant entertainment.

Sorry about the former posting, my browser crashed. This is what I wanted to write:

I vote for Irenicus because of his great voice and his interesting background.

Evandarian · Post by **Evandarian** » Tue Mar 27, 2001 4:19 pm

Heh...
Jaheira!!!
need i say why? (despite the despair of a buggy romance script that almost makes me want to cry!{possibly the messing up of the cluaconsole also adds to this despair!})
Either than Jaheira, it would be...
Haer Dalis' "Ah, the grand city of commerce. Mayhap we can sell Jaheira?"
Aerie- just really really cute and nice, though just a bit too childish for my taste

Well, I am not original:

#1 Minsc and Boo - no comments here

#2 Irenicus - loved his voice and his attitude. The best bad guy ever.
