Then I'll kick Minsc and Dyna out to take Kivan and Eldoth (I sooooo wish there was an Eldoth romance... *sigh*)

View Post

Wow, an Eldoth fan. For some reason a lot of people really seem to hate him, I don't see it myself.

And if the Edwin Romance got written, who's to say the Eldoth one won't be too?

Doesn't the concept of "romance" rather presume "person who doesn't see people of the sex he's attracted to as dust-mops to be used and thrown away"?

Well, there's always a possibility to take the matter into your own hands. ;)

Anyway, Edwin romance got written, Haer'Dalis' is being written,
plenty of BG1 NPC are going to be available for romance... anything can happen, these days, I totally agree ! :D

Were you talking about Aerie ? Or Viconia ? Both apply, in my book. ;)

Of course, either of them is a more logical and intelligent guess than the character with lines like,
"Be silent Skie, it's not like your opinion is worth anything."
and
"Shar-Teel, your role in life is to bear children and bake cookies, now shut up."

I don't see anything wrong with that, actually. It's "Please, make a woman out of me at last ! My wings, my poor wings ! " and "You have defeated me... now taste you victory" that really bug me.

Tastes differ. ;)

Eldoth's romance was in plans for a while, but then Dorotea decided not to write it. BG1NPC is always open to submissions from prospective writers, as long as they are serious, ready to make an effort to fit their texts with the project earlier material, will maintain reasonable commitment and work at a certain pace. I know that it sounds harsh compared to 'follow your muse' approach, but it is necessary to treat both players and co-authors fairly.

Off-topic but on-topic at the same time...

BG1

Mayaserana (I know, I know... always get bagged about that name) Ranger
Branwen - Cleric
Garrick - Bard
Imoen - Thief
Xan - Mage


BGII (So many! So... this is current...)

Thereian - Ranger/Cleric (tweaked so I can use a bow like her character... more Ranger than Cleric)

Sarevok - Fighter (Well, not yet, but I will.)

Minsc - Ranger (Who doesn't love Minsc and Boo besides all of the people on Page 2 of this thread? :lol: )

Jan - Thief/Mage (You gotta love Jan... and his gadgets... and his crazy banters... but I draw the line at the turnip stench!)

Imoen - Thief/Mage (Can't leave my sis behind.)

:wub: Solaufein :wub: - Fighter/Mage (I love the philosophical banters! They're great!)

Through lightning, travel shadow,
Through hell and all above,
Surviving sword and arrow,
Bound stronger by the love

***

And in the end a witness,
To where the death has lain,
Silent through the sorrow,
Where innocents lie slain

I hated Solaufein.... He had really... really... REALLY disturbing chats with my male char!

I later on commanded my group to gank him and kill him, that was fun.

If you're a male, romance Sola and choose not to ascend, you will eventually get pregnant of Sola. Did he put a girdle of sex change on you maybe?

Solaufein was modded to be able to pursue a romance with both men and women. If you didn't like that, you could have clicked on him and told him so at any time.

:huh: . Wow, I didn't know that. Looks like <Charname> might have accidentally become physiologically mutated with from all of the spells they've copped... :lol:

In one (just one) of the possible epilogues, Elistraee sends you a child. There is never the implication that Solaufein's male lover gets pregnant.

I have two straight good-aligned BG2 parties which I love, both on an unmodded game. This was copy-pasted straight from advice I gave to another person, so sorry if it sounds like a lesson.

Me - Inquisitor (Carsomyr anyone?)
Minsc - dual-wielding the best long/bastard swords I have at the time
Valygar - dual-wielding Celestial Fury and his own sword --> Sarevok in ToB with Gram (the sword of grief)
Viconia - Romance and Crom Faeyr-wielder
Aerie - Romance and Flail of Ages (I Shadowkeepered her to have 18 Wis and Int, oops)
Imoen - whatever, she's the primary mage / only thief you need, you don't need to use her to fight

Me - Kensai/Mage dual class dual-wielding katanas
A.N.Other - Cleric/Ranger multiclass I created by playing in multiplayer. All druid/cleric spells, dual-wielding Crom Faeyr and the Flail of Ages
Minsc - see above
Keldorn - Carsomyr (very possibly maybe sub in Sarevok, but usually not)
Imoen - it says something when Imoen is only the secondary mage in a party
Viconia / Jaheira - Romance and secondary priest

If you really want, you can sub in Aerie (instead of Viconia / Jaheira) in the second party and get 3 (!) mages and 2 priests in a party of 6. That kicks ass, but you need to be smart about which scrolls you give to whom, or just spend most of your spare loot on buying duplicates.

First party: If you want Sarevok (and didn't cheat like me and Shadowkeeper him to move his points into Bastard Swords from Two-handed swords), think about switching the Inquisitor onto dual-wielding Bastard Swords once you get to ToB. Purifier and Foebane rock.

I'm going through a BGT game with a dwarven bounty hunter.

In BG1, I ended with Quayle, Yeslick, Kagain, Shar-Teel, and Edwin.

In BG2, I currently have (and intend on keeping) Edwin, Nalia, Anomen, Valygar, and a romanced Aerie.

It'll be a rare Sarevok-less TOB when the time comes.
