Here's a quick teaser for those of you interested in the mod. It's one of our new graphics for the Edwin romance mod, for the vampirism by Bodhi quest. Just like in the usual in-game romances, Edwin gets turned into a vampire by Bodhi, and it's up to you to rescue him. I'm not a brilliant artist, but I rather enjoyed drawing this picture for the mod, and went a bit wild when it came to designing his mage robe! You may notice that you can see his 'Amulet of Thay' around his neck (just). Obviously Bodhi had as little success nicking it as I did :D.

This screenshot was taken in-game.

I think Ophidia did an excellent job myself, and the extravagant nature of the robes seem to suit Edwin's personality IMHO. :)

Ophidia is really good at drawing, just wait until you see some of the other stuff she's made. :)

Ooh, sudden deluge of replies! Well, four...

Thanks for the various compliments, I appreciate them! I did enjoy drawing this, and I wanted to make Eddie's robe as tasteless as possible :).

As for the other graphics in the mod, you'll have to wait and see!

Heh, had it been red Edwin might have been tempted by it. :) But I think his brand of tasteless mostlyl runs toward plenty of gold thread on everything.

Looks great Ophidia.

Looking forward to giving Eddie some game time once this mod is finished, frankly I don't often have him in my party.

Wow. I like it. Although, it sorta reminds me of Edwin in BG1, after asking to kill Dynaheir with Minsc in the party :D

*grin* Eddie has a high Int score, but his Wis is somewhat...lacking.

Very nice drawing there, though the body seems too thin and fragile to be Edwin.

Edwin actually has a good constitution. Conjuerers are required to.

However, good constitution isn't the same as being bulky, or having lots of muscles. A person can be pretty skinny and still be very tough at the same time, with plenty of stamina. Like a long distance runner as opposed to a sprinter. Hm, I wonder why conjurers specifically are required to have high Con? Maybe they need it in order to handle their 'pets'. :D

Personally I've always mentally pictured Eddie as pretty skinny and feeble- that's why I drew him that way. As mentioned above, he does only have a constitution of 10, which is average. The BG games don't use the specialist mage rules that certain mages need certain other stats as well as intelligence.

Anyway, a person who spends that much time being annoyed and irritated with the world around them will burn off any excess fat in no time. I should know! :angry:

He's got a pretty chubby face in BG2, which I think is where the comment came from.
