+1 to everyone except Bub Snikt and +2 to Viconia. Grab any new tank character we come upon and replace Bub Snikt.

I've never seen Viconia's BG1 conversations.

This thread is a nice complement for me finally undertaking my long time goal of playing through all three games. It's my Fall project. I'm currently at Chapter 6 in BG1 and working my way around Durlag's Tower.

But we don't get any evil drow nookie until BG2, which could be a while since we've not even got to the Nashkel Mines yet. Get the crazy rear end bitch nookie while we still can.

You didn't say we wouldn't get more, as your own quote demonstrates. There is a difference between not getting any and not getting any more.

If I tell you "you're not going to have sex until 2050" the fact that you had sex a week ago is irrelevant. And this is a dumb derail.

Maybe it's just me, but the feeling I personally get from finch is "self insert" especially when looking at her portrait. genuinely feel that someone's just taken their own picture, added in a quill, and photoshopped their nose out about 2 miles.

Gavin's been pretty cool. Imoen and Viconia are old favourites. Bub is dull, but we do need a fighter so Khalid can try to shine without the old ball and chain dragging him down.

She isn't a particularly poorly written character, and who makes their wish fulfillment character a gnome? You can tell she's a fan character, but she's probably one of the better ones.

I am totally okay with a warrior woman but it seems like her character is basically nonexistent outside of her gender. That's pretty boring.

Party Membership is a Democracy, The Weave is Not.

A fledgling vampire? How about a dragon, or some half-kobold druids? Perhaps a spontaneous sex change? Anything that can happen, will happen the results will be beyond entertaining.

I gotta say, it was great to wake up to 30+ new posts. I should end every update with some kinda vote.

Conot posted:

Gorion and Syvishtar never really had that talk, but what we will eventually find out is that Syvishtar's real dad pretty much stuck it in all the crazy. All of it. Interspecies even.

Here are the results so far:

code:
Name      +  -  Total
---------------------
Bub       10 -4   6
Finch     11     11
Gavin     14     14
Imoen     26 -1  25
Jaheira    9      9
Kagain     5      5
Khalid     3      3
Kivan      0      0
Rose       5      5
Shar-Teel 17-19  -2
Tiax       5      5
Viconia   16     16
Will      -2     -2
Xzar       0      0
I guess nobody cares about Kivan or Xzar? Poor guys. Voting will stay open for the rest of the weekend. I'll end it on Monday midnight, CST.

Ok, true, but some species have two legs and some have four legs. I guess that would be interpedal?

Strange... I find her one of the most well defined characters so far, definitely better than, say, Finch ("librarian") or Gavin ("a guy who asks questions") or Kivan ("emo!"). She's a heartless, aggressive woman-bear who has issues with men, and she has some great lines. She's one dimensional, yes, but on par with Tiax or Xzar. I can't understand why shy has fewer votes than, for example, Bub Snikt who's just an empty box with high stats.

Anyone care to tell me where does all the hate come from? Is it because you don't like the romance? (Again, I find great because the relationship is so much different from what you usually see in games.)

Mainly because her unending ragging on men is in fact more irritating than Wolverine. Plus if we ever hope to get out of our Reputation shithole, we need to take our reputation above her romance barrier.
