Poll: Who is your favourite NPC from BG1 that is not playable in BG2 ?

I vote for Coran and Ajantis - I liked to have them in my party. I liked also Xzar because of his stupid speeches.

Kaigan was cool! "I'm gonna make us all STINKIN' RICH!" Much better than Korgan, IMO.

I also liked Branwen and Dynaheir. Too bad they weren't included in BG2.

Honorable mention: Yeslik. There's no other NPC in BG2 that would have been like him. Anomen?!? I don't think so!

Old Queesy, of course (Quayle, that is)! If he wasn't so intelligent, he might be scared of the dark, remember? Also very cool were Eldoth (what a self confidence), Kagain (great voice: Money runs the world, kid...) and Montaron (purest evil).

I'd go for Ajantis and Xan!!!!!!

How would Lilarcor mix with Xan? "You know what? Long time ago..., I was, like..., a Mooooonblade!"
Hmmmmmmm.

I also liked Tiax! The little megalomaniac was just a blast to have around. "Tiax will rule the world!"

Dynaheir

and Kivan

Definitely Dynaheir, a great mage, cool personality. And also, Coran, an excelent thief! Both of which lack in BG2

henhen · Post by **henhen** » Mon May 07, 2001 8:04 am

These discussions really show just how subjective our responses to the npc s are. No offence

, but seeing Safana receieve her due was, for me, a most satisfying moment. She was a skilled thief, for sure, but I found her attitude quite irritating. Ah well, I don't mind Anomen, and many people dislike him...

Khalid and Kivan, they were so sweet when you had kept them in the party for a while and they started giving each other small compliments.

Xan for his incredible depression.

He was hillarious

Coran... listening to him hit on Dynaheir is rather amusing (though after awhile, I do sometimes feel like renting a room for them and leaving them there). Can't say that I miss Dynaheir in BG 2, she was an average mage at best.

Yeslik, I miss Yeslik in this game - instead you have to suffer Amonen or make your own cleric.

Kivan would also be nice, but I think that Valgyra(sp?) has taken his place.

Coran - yeah - 3* in bow

Nightfire · Post by **Nightfire** » Tue May 08, 2001 9:59 am

Branwen - she was a good cleric with a cheerful, loyal disposition (even if her True Neutral alignment did make her complain a bit in my rep 20 party), a quirky accent and some funny lines. "By Valkur's strapping buttocks!", anyone?

Oh, and Khalid. Yes, I liked that man, mainly because he wasn't yet another stereotypical bloodthirsty fighter. Besides, if he could capture the heart of our esteemed Jaheira, he must indeed have had a lot going for him.

Sojourner · Post by **Sojourner** » Tue May 08, 2001 10:18 am

Branwen, Ajantis, Kivan and of course, Xan.

Weasel · Post by **Weasel** » Tue May 08, 2001 10:20 am

Branwen and Kivan

Craig · Post by **Craig** » Tue May 08, 2001 10:28 am

Branwen and Xan

Georgi · Post by **Georgi** » Tue May 08, 2001 11:27 am

Khalid, goes without saying...

And Ajantis - then Anomen would definitely have some competition on his hands

I heard Aj appears in BG2, but I haven't seen him... Just a rumour?
