I think there should be a script which makes him drop all his items (and maybe destroy his own weapon, armor and helmet) just before he leaves, so that we can get them back, and they're not lost forever.

When I exited durlag's tower the citadel, the elf, as he has to, left the party. The problem was that I didn't know that, and so he had many items with him - including the child I had to return to the major's wife! I had to load the game to get everything back.

Didn't look at it, but when he does that there should be a LeaveParty() first, which according to the IESDP automatically calls a DropInventory(). But maybe the existing script or dialogue just has him do an EscapeArea() without leaving the party first? Definitely something to fix.

I've found the corresponding dialogue, it's cuchionj.dlg. There are 4 different states (3 to 6) for him leaving, depending on:
NumInPartyGT(4) / LT(4) (but if they're exactly 4, will it work? and, in both cases, nothing changes)
!HasItem("DSMISC07",Myself) / Has...
the actions triggered are
LeaveParty()
GiveItemCreate("DSMISC04",LastTalkedToBy,1,0,0)
GiveItem("DSMISC07",LastTalkedToBy) (only if HasItem...)
ActionOverride("BUBBA",ChangeEnemyAlly("BUBBA",NEUTRAL))
ActionOverride("BUBBA",EscapeArea())
EscapeArea()

That LeaveParty() should make him drop everything, unless the IESDP is wrong...
Or if, as you say, the trigger is wrong and you *don't* have the item, then it doesn't work properly??

When that happened, he did have the item.
Anyway, as players don't know that he's gonna disappear, dropping all would be nice...
Unfortunately, I doubt I can easily reproduce the situation, I should change too many variables and I don't think I've still got a save there
