Funny moments *spoilers likely*

So you played the BG series (all of it right? :) ), a series that never took itself too seriously, there was always some light relief to be found. What were your favourite "funnies"?

For myself, the best one had to be Bondari and his party. I recognised those fresh party types, and I've seen that kind of thing happen in PnP roleplaying (especially the bickering, and thepicking on the low level wizard "But I heal you guys!" :) )

A few other favourites of mine would be the Spectator Beholder (everyone loves him right?), the bickering between Jaheira, Aerie and Vicionia (if you're male), and the interaction between Jaheira and Haer'Dalis if you go to the Promenade.

Great stuff :)

Great fun! Right Boo?

Imeon and Keldorn in watchers keep

Keldorn: Imoen, please keep your hands away from me, I don't care for you practicing your pick pocketing on me
Imoen: Oh Keldorn, I can feel your muscles undr your armour and it makes me hot
Keldorn: Imoen!
Imoen: I just can't keep may hands of you, for an older man you certainly keep yourself in good shape
Keldorn: This is highly inapropriate, you young enough to me my daughter!
Imoen: I know its wrong Keldorn, maybe its the bhaal essence driving me, but I just want too...
Keldorn: Imoen stop!
Imoen: Get over yourself Keldorn, yeesh, heres your ring back.


Oh man I laughed and laughed at that one.

Yeah but couldn't have had Bondari in that one, plus you couldn't have the second Spectator meet either, or several other moments.......

Should have got Steve Buscemi to do the Spectator Beholder's lines; that's the voice I hear in my head when I read 'em :)

In ToB I got a funny dialog between Imoen and Anomen regarding the Knights of the Radiant Heart journeying to Candlekeep to turn a book over to the monks. Anyway, in the end it appears that this book was pornographic in nature and that Winslow kept it in his room. I can't remember the details, but it was pretty funny.

There was also an interesting dialog in SoA between Edwin and Yoshimo, something to the effect that Edwin didn't trust Yoshimo and thought he was even shadier than Edwin himself.

With Korgan and Jaheira, there are alot of funny dialogs and threats/insults. Later on in ToB Korgan gets very interested in the PC's future and very friendly, he wants to make sure you don't "forget your friends".

Every time I play through with a different character mix I get interesting dialogs, which is one of the things that makes the game so enjoyable and fun to replay.

Steve's a scrawny geeky little actor, from movies like Armageddon, Con Air, Fargo, Desperado, Pulp Fiction, Reservoir Dogs, etc. You've probably seen him but just don't know his name.

When I smote Nalmrissa through a door by accident and I forgot about it. Later when I opened that door, I lost half my party to her dire charm. That was crazy !


Bondari. Definately. That was comedy gold.


Also, when Jan apologizes to Anomen. Oh that was too good.

'oh captain, my captain' Too funny !

The Psycho guy who they deliver with a mask on. Steve is one of my favorite actors of all time.

I met Bondari & co. yesterday for the first time. First I LOLed, then I LMAOed, then I ROFLed. That's the funniest thing I've ever seen in a game since Uncle Sven went on a three-day turnip beer bender...

Oh, and the Bhaalspawn chinchilla was priceless :D

Also Jan's speech when you get to hell:

Jan- Whoa! This place looks just like...it reminds me of...this is just like that time I...hm. I don’t think anything like this has ever happened to me before...

ok wtf is the spectator beholder

i loved the Bondari bit classic

personally one of the greats has gotta be "find someone rich then kill them, then find someone richer and kill them to hack and slash your way to fortune wahooo" Lilacor +3 Two-Handed Sword (brother is a +17 hackmaster and used to be a moonblade)

the spectator is the beholder guarding the tooth in the sahaugin city, and he also appears in one of the enclave's - the drow one.
