WK interjections in SoA

24 February 2005 - 05:22 AM

we want to have saerileth interject into various parts of the watcher's keep quest, whether you do it in SoA or ToB.  however, while testing the saerileth mod, we found that when it's time for her to interject, the dialogue simply ends.  the bioware npcs do *not* interject into WK in SoA.  their interjections are coded in their 25.d files with a GlobalGT("Chapter","Global",7) check. is this what we need to do for saerileth?  this would therefore make her eligible to interject into WK *only* in ToB, which is exactly what we don't want to do.

can anyone help?

Yasraena

12 October 2004 - 05:55 PM

Yasraena is a rather confused drow. She was born a female noble, but her house was temporarily out of favor. Her mother did not want it to be known that she had just had a seventh daughter because Yasraena, due to the disfavor of Lolth on her house, was rejected by Lolth (that is the way drow spell the name, at least according to the Drow of the Underdark book). A daughter not allowed to become a priestess would be an enormous shame. So Yasraena was shuffled off for the first few years of her life, trained to believe in the superiority of females but rarely experiencing the benefits herself. She showed great aptitude for sword-play, so when she was old enough, she was disguised as a male and sent into Melee Magthere, the male fighters' academy.

During Yasraena's time at Melee Magthere, two things happened which changed the course of her life. She met Divalir, her master at the academy. He taught her more than sword-play. He taught her how to be good. (This bit will be explained in the mod.) The second thing was that her mother regained the favor Lolth. Yasraena's disguise was then less important, and indeed, her being a female was rather an open secret by then. Her mother let it be known that upon Yasraena's graduation from the academy, she would then be placed in Arach-Tinilith, the school for priestesses. To avoid this, Divalir tried to get Yasraena to the surface.

So, having been raised as an oddity female, a girl-child not allowed to serve Lolth, then been disguised as a male for several years, Yasraena's way of thinking is muddled at times. She is extremely proud, trusts with difficulty, is courageous, and tries to be stoic.

Kindrek NPC mod for BGII--SoA & ToB

06 September 2004 - 08:02 PM

I would like to take up valuable space on this forum by introducing Kindrek, a non-romanceable NPC for BGII--SoA & ToB.

Kindrek is a wizard-slaying, magic-hating Roc (original race from my campaign setting) who will join your group in the City Gates.

I know: another non-Faerun NPC.  This is getting ridiculous!  But I don't like using other people's material.....

Kindrek has extensive banters with most of the Bioware NPCs, several interjections throughout SoA and ToB, a couple cutscenes, and a ChatPack (works on the same principle as the PC-initiated FlirtPack).

Kindrek is very powerful, but he has several potentially-fatal weaknesses......
