### Spellhold Studios _ Arath Discussion _ Arath's Relationship with the other NPCs

#### Posted by: K'aeloree Mar 25 2007, 02:57 PM

Aerie - Arath is sweet to Aerie at first, but soon grows tired of her constant whining. He views her as something of a pretty weed - beautiful, but in the long run somewhat useless.
Jaheira - Arath and Jaheira have a peculiar relationship - while from the outside it may seem like they actively dislike each other, they quite enjoy their verbal sparring (in which Arath is almost invariably the loser). Arath is confused as to why Jaheira is 'afraid' to be more proactive against the encroachment of civilisation, and wonders why she's so comfortable in cities (which she isn't, she just seems that way). Jaheira believes him to be a frivolous, pathetic excuse for a man, and is shocked to find out that he worships Silvanus. The two will not come to blows, but they might have some... interesting arguments.
Cernd - Arath wonders why Cernd is so laid back and accepting of everything, and views him, in a way, as competition to the role as 'party druid'. Cernd doesn't particularly like Arath, though he does agree with him on a few topics. The two don't have much in common.
Valygar - Valygar doesn't like Arath, and Arath thinks Valygar's extremist views are outdated and stupid. I can't seem them coming to blows - but they won't exactly be the best of chums, either.

Some more random notes... if you guys disagree, I'm totally up for changing how I think about it... *g* This is just a quick brainstorming session for me.
Jan - Arath and Jan will not get along - whilst Jan is fairly amiable towards Arath, the latter dislikes Jan's views of the city as being a fantastic, profitable thing.
Keldorn - Arath and Keldorn won't exactly get along, but Arath has respect for Keldorn, though he wouldn't admit it. Keldorn views Arath as a child, who often reminds me of his youngest daughter in his attitudes.
Viconia - Viconia and Arath will have an interesting relationship - they both admire the other physically, but Viconia prefers to taunt Arath than sleep with him. Perhaps the two, if neither are romancing anyone, could have a short sexual foray, which would end in mutual dislike? Seems quite likely; Viconia looking for a 'strong' man, and Arath isn't the sort to back down from a challenge...
Korgan - Korgan and Arath are 'drinking buddies', so to speak - the two share tales and a love of women, though Korgan doesn't understand how Arath can appreciate the male form as much as the female form, and finds it rather disgusting. Some interesting pub conversations? Korgan takes Arath and the PC for a pub-crawl in Athkatla, perhaps?
Imoen - Arath is intrigued by Imoen at first; she's pretty, sweet, and has intelligence to match - but when he flirts with her, she brushes him off. This makes him redouble his efforts, but eventually he loses interest - she isn't actually all that.
Yoshimo - Arath and Yoshimo get along quite well, and Arath is shocked when Yoshimo is revealed to be a tratior. They might have some interesting, humorous dialogue - perhaps something to do with the fact they're both reluctant to share their pasts?
