Addendum: I have no skill when it comes to writing code, none, nil, nada. Not for this or any other game. I hope, however, that with the help of the vast treasury of knowledge that exists on the internet, on these fine forums, and in my waste basket, I can compensate and produce a mod that kicks some serious ass. Therefore, anyone who even says 'wassup' in this thread is going to get some credit by the time this mod comes out - well, okay, not just 'wassup', but you get the picture.
So, I've decided to use this as a sort of development diary for a rather adventurous mod that myself and a friend (I'm the one doing all of the bloody work


Now then, let's meet the bastards we'll be playing with.
'General' Doli
Race: Dwarf
Class: Fighter
Alignment: Chaotic Neutral
Biography: When asked about his past, DOLI proceeds to ramble on for some time about his past exploits, contradicting himself three or four times. His eyes glow with anger as he mentions such fantastic characters as Mystra, Halaster, Mephistopholes, Volothamp and Demogorgon. Apparently, the dwarf holds a grudge against just about everything in existence, although he certainly doesn't show it. A jovial character, the good general seems more interested in ranting about his various quests for revenge than actually undertaking them. He explains that he is a planewalker, along with his companion, Celdor, although from the looks of things it doesn't seem like he's ventured to another plane for quite some time, if ever. Still, the dwarf has a true lust for adventure, one which he seems to be sating by travelling with you.
Celdor Tuldin
Race: Elf
Class: Fighter/Wizard
Alignment: True Neutral
Biography: When asked about his past, CELDOR jerks a finger over at Doli and tells you to ask him.
So, a few questions, as we start our little journey here. First of all, what do ya'll think of the characters themselves? In case their biographies don't tell you enough, the pair of them are both glory-seeking adventurers, far more interested in fame and the 'thrill' - well, in the case of Doli, at least - than gold. Obviously, I don't want to go too much into their past, but their personalities can basically be summed up as (Doli - rude, lewd, boisterous, brash, head-strong) (Celdor - sarcastic, apathetic, sardonic, etc.)
As it might not be clear, in addition, Celdor is a barrister - that is, a lawyer.
And finally, I have one question before we go anywhere: where should the player meet the pair of them? I don't want it to be so simple as:" Hey, what's up? I'm Celdor. Let us join you." That sort of thing is lame. I'm thinking something like the situation with Minsc and his witch whose name I can not spell for the life of me. You meet one of them and the other asks you to help you rescue them - probably from jail. The Copper Cornet's out - that place is way too crowded with NPCs as is. I don't want to pull a Yeslick and have them join your party at the Tree of Life, either (an exaggeration, but you get me

I'm asking for general ideas... that is, what would YOU like to see in the mod? It's not that I am not creative enough to come up with something on my own, but I'd like to cater to at least one or two of the fancies of the players here.
