In ToB:

When Viconia tries to fancy Sarevok, he sums up some things he has fought and seen, and adds "but you, you scare me Viconia" and Viconia says "All men are weak"

Who knows the exact line?

Hey! Good guys can be funny, too! I reckon anything Minsc says is worth a laugh, with the Nalia-admires-his-style-so-M-thinks-she-wants-a-hamster conversation ranking particularly high.

Cespenar's "BTW, I organises your shoes, okay?" probably ranks as my favourite one-liner, mind... Reminds me, must do a Detect Evil on that Imp...

Here's the exact line:

Viconia: "Sarevok, may I share a whispered word with you?"

Sarevok: "Yes, drow? What is it you want?"

Viconia: "I miss the customs of my homeland, like the breaking in of new pleasure slaves. The largest and strongest were the hardest to break, but they were the most rewarding. Sarevok, I find your great size... intriguing."

Sarevok: "Were you to break me, Viconia, you might find nothing but the chill emptiness of the grave within."

Viconia: "That does not repulse me as you might imagine. We drow are ever eager to broaden our... experiences."

Sarevok: "I orchestrated a war to slaughter thousands. I have felt the cold embrace of death. I have witnessed the horrors of the Abyss. But you, Viconia... you scare me. "

That's a good one. In fact, all hamster references are good.

A thought I just had

I wonder if any of the NPCs for the mods have any interesting lines/NPC-to-NPC dialogues... I mean Tashia, Kelsey, Solafein, or such.

At one point Minsc tells another NPC that they need their own hamster. Can't remember who he was talking to.

One of the best is from TOB. All NPC's are showing their loyality to the PC Minsc screams "Evil meet sword, Sword meet evil"

Actually, there are several instances of that. For example, in Shadows of Amn, Minsc will tell the main character that we should get him a hamster of his own, "or perhaps an ice weasel--whatever your taste."

In Throne of Bhaal, Imoen tells Minsc that she would like to get a hamster, since Boo has such a calming effect on Minsc. Later, Nalia tells Minsc that he has been an inspiration to her, and he says, "And now you would like a hamster, right?" She meant nothing of the sort, of course, so she says, "What?" and Minsc says, "Just a guess." :)

The dialogue between Korgan and Shagbag ("still a lant-gulping dirtchute") is a highlight worth playing the game only for it, some smaller dialogues of Korgan ("seems like they've painted his place with his innards") and Korgan's story of his former party belong to my favorites. Korgan's reaction when you transform to Slayer is pretty cool too.

Yeah Korgans quest has good lines :D
("still a lant-gulping dirtchute") love that one!
I also like the dialogues with Tiax in the asylum. And my favourite, one that I can never resist is talking to Dradeel, the aged elven mage who ends up saying "You've the rank smell of Golodon the Unmanned. Bastard!" I thought something funny should come up between him and Jan Jansen but sadly no.
The dialogues in this game are truly great!

Long ago I used Infinity Explorer to find and copy all the dialogs of Jan and Korgan to a Word file. Per your request here's how it goes:

Jan: So Viconia I suppose you must be a Drow eh?

Viconia: Speak not to your betters surface slave.

Jan: My brother Elgar Buttercup had skin the shade of characoal too. Well technically it WAS charcoal. He died in a nasty fire you see.

Viconia: You do love the sound of your own voice don’t you gnome?

Jan: My own voice? Heartless wench! Do you not know? I am deaf. I have never heard the sound of my own voice. I read lips ... (sob) ... only lips.

Viconia: Deaf? Truly? In the Underdark the deaf are killed or used in pain threshold experiments.

Jan: I heard that! In fact it reminds me of the time I was eaten by an avater of Lloth. I was stuck inside her stomach with a miserable drow called Biffle Chump for days. Of course I was forced to eat him. A matter of survival you understand. Nothing personnal. He tasted a bit like chicken.

Viconia: (CHAR_NAME), how is it that you travel with such a wee buffoon?

CHAR: Hey, don't look at me! You got him started.

Jan: What I would have given for just a pinch of pepper!


OR…

CHAR : Truthfully, it all goes back to the time that Jan's cousin, Plooty Paladin-piper, got caught in a nasty flesh golem eating contest...

Jan: Aye, Plooty had a way of attracting golems. Brilliant really, you start with a saucer of milk - golems really are suckers for milk...

Viconia: I refuse to listen to this.


There another good Jan dialog about a book his mother wrote called "Sins of the Flesh Golem". Jan uses this story to drive Keldorn crazy.
