). Anybody know if Baldur's Gate Tutu allows you to select Wild Mage as a class? 
I once tried playing a Wild Mage in Baldur's Gate 2, way back in the beginning, when I first played the game and hadn't found my favoured class yet. I've since learned that I am not good at playing spellcasters, as I tend to forget memorising spells before rest - Sorcerers work fine, though, as you can imagine. It's not just spellcasters, but magic items and scrolls in general, that I forget about when I play. The battle's over, and suddenly I realise I could have used that scroll to make things much more easy. Oh well.
Also, I get nervous if I am not able to pick locks myself and the like - Rogue abilities are something I have no problems remembering to use, and I really enjoy playing rogues at all times. What sacrifices we make for love, right? Nothing beats dropping a cow on Anomen. (Not me - some guy on the Black Isle boards)
One thing I always cheat into my game is a few scrolls of "Summon Cow". And if I have spellcasters around, I try and transfer it to their spell book (don't remember if that actually works, though). There's just something incredibly satisfying about dropping a 1 ton Black-and-White Holstein on your enemies.
My favourite wild surge happened in the Watcher's Keep. We accidentally barged in the room full of imps, and when we've finally gotten out, I had trouble figuring out who was who - gender swaps all around.
And, hey, Xander is back!
I think something like that happened to my group too...
I turned Edwina back into a man. You'd think he'd be grateful or something.
That is just priceless.
