Hello,
I am playing a Mega-Install with most of the big mods installed (but ROT and NEJ).
At this point in my game, I have completed all of Chapt2 and most of Chapt 3 Main/NPC/multi-stronghold quests (the only big one left in the Planar sphere with Valygar).
My party is : Keldorn/Minsk/Jaheira/Yoshimo/Kashiko/me(Fighter/Mage/Cleric).
I'm ready the head for Brynlaw and make a stop by the TS main quest. However, I have read on various TS forums that, to have the "full TS" experience, Sime should be picked-up (as she has several romance-related quests and she is the only way to wack the Chromatic dragon). So I have a couple of questions:
1/ I want to keep Jaheira, and I'm currently romancing her, so I'm concerned about adding Sime to the party...Can it kill my romance with Jaheira? Should I wait for my current romance to be completed before picking-up Sime (I have read that getting in the bunk with Jaheira was the last step of the romance, but will she stay in the party if I start a new romance?).
2/ Can I do Sime's quests in chapter 6, once I come back from the Underdark. Is Sime's character still available? Will she still be in the Shadow Thiefs underground base or do I have to create her (what SIMEX.CRE to cluaconsole)?
3/ I will probably let go of Kashiko when the main TS plot is over (having her resurected- good ending). But since she is bound to Yoshimo, when is the "best time" to do it?. I don't want to ruin the Spellhold betrayal surprise (and restoring Yoshimo's heart later on...).
4/ Is there any more plot between Yoshimo/Kashiko or related quests if I do the Good TS ending and keep Yoshimo in Spellhold (no betrayal?)

Sorry, lots of questions but Hey, my old man always told me: Who asks for directions never gets lost! ;-)

Excellent questions. However I don't think there are a lot of TS experts here. You should probably copy/paste/post your queries over at the Tortured Soul forum, at Blackwyrm Lair, home of the mod's creators.

TS-BP bugs/install should be posted here, but TS story/features are best over at Vlad's forum.

Since this topic is aleady here maybe there could be some answers:
1. you can get Sime for TS-BP because she give you additional quest related with dragon on island Perhaps it is possible to get her while Kachiko is "out of service" ^^
2. Yoshimo might not betray you in Spellhold... ^^ So you can go with him to ToB
3. Yoshimo and Kachiko are bound together...if one dies, another will go away...so just after you kill Yoshimo in Spellhold Kachiko will leave your party.
4. If Yoshimo is still alive after Spellhold he will leave your party after entering Graveyard (or Small Teeth Pass propably)...he has some work to do. Ofcourse Kachiko will stay with you ^^ Yoshimo *from what I've heard* can join to you in Saradush (ToB)...however I'm not certain for location (might be Suldanesselar...however I almost comleted it and he was not there).

Well, this is the answer I received at Blackwyrm Lair !
"Ask at spellholdstudios (under BP+BGT forum), u won't find an answer to your problems here,"

You ain't spamming. This is a good place to post, it's just that not a lot of people here seem expert with TS. Still, some may have advice. Didn't Promilus's work?

Sorry dude. They must be having a bad day over there, as I see no reason for them not to answer your type of questions, they have nothing to do with a megainstall.

You can read some of the old posts in their forum, your answers may be there.

Well, I didn't see your post at BWL TS forum boards. Anyway, it would be a way better to wait for the new release of TS v6.11.

1. If you pick up Sime only to kill the dragon, you will fail. First you'll need to romance her, second you'll need to travel with her for a while, third you'll need to have time for other lovetalks which are connected to your adventures in Chapters 2 and 3, particularly - quest of Aran and encounters with vampires. All in all, if you do not take her into your party at once or send her away, the romance will be broken, and you may equally forget about her quests.

2. Please see above.

3. If you are playing TS, you won't be able to separate Kachiko from Yoshimo. Yoshimo will leave in Chapter 6 and come back in Saradush though.

4. Their lovetalks continue in ToB (no special quests, only lovetalks and interjections).

Thank you very much Vlad for the clarifications. This is a great mod!
