negative hitpoints?!

Check this out! I have played IWD about 6 hours (real time now) and have quit and loaded about 5-6 times, the second time I loaded a saved game, the second character of my party is loaded as a dead character with negative hitpoints, ie: -11906/37 I have always reloaded again (without saving) and he came back normal (37/37)... But the last time I played, he would not come back normal, I tried about 4 times. Finally I clicked on him, his inventory is blacked out like he is held or something. He can move and fight and he is invincible!!! No lie! I sent him in to fight spectral knights and bad-ass temple guardians, at one time he had 8 of them surrounding him, pounding away, he slowly killed each one, and check this...then leveled up! Unreal! He is also linked to the party (ie: they get his experience also), thank goodness I gave him a magical weapon, since I can no longer access his gear. After talking to Kresselack and finishing the Vale quest, we headed back to Kuldahar and talked to Arundel. I found out that anything in is backpack can be sold at the shops/smith, so I emptied him out. Not sure if I want to delete him out or not... Any ideas out there, or has anyone else seen this bug? :D :D

That's one of the wierdest bugs I've heard of. Have you tried raising/resurrecting him?

Yes, I tried raise dead from scroll, then went to temple and tried both, without any change to him. It has to be a load game problem, last night when I played he came up as 0/37, so I took him to temple, raised and healed him like normal. Played all last night with him as a normal character. Weird... :D
