I am pretty sure those are literally better than anything in the unmodified game, without any sort of contest. Not even Throne of Bhaal high-level loot matches that.

Good thing we're losing all of our loot when we move into BG2. :v:

Hmm, so shall we start voting on male romances now? :D

With the Romance mod in, which we have, you've got Xan if you like your loving flavored with despair, or Corran (who we don't have yet) if you like your romance flowery. I think there's a separate mod for Garrick that isn't in the standard Romance mod, but it doesn't matter if we have that mod or not, since we don't have Garrick in the party.

So right now...it's Xan. How depressing. :sigh:

Would the previously started romances continue after the gender change? Shar-Teel's drooling over "Puny Men" would be hilarious in a pseudolesbian relationship.

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'm going to make us golden again. Its the first time I've had the cash to buy the dyes to do it. That's why I chose to go to the friendly arm. I'm not sure how romances are going to react to this, so were just going to have to see.

if anybody wants to propose a new female elf portrait, I'll use it. I only request that it be gold like my current one because I'm about to buy the dyes necessary to be gold forever! I tried looking for one on my own, but all I could find was this:

I'm pretty sure that the wild surge gender change is in fact temporary. Possibly only 24 hours but i'm not exactly sure on that one. I've been hit with it a few times and don't recall it being permanent though.

Being a mage, he very well might end up wearing a belt of cognizance anyway (which changes genders). Thalantyr sells one and there is a super cheap one in BG2.

Well the one on the far left is holding a staff which seems appropriate. The "come hither" gaze is out of character for the Syvishtar we know so far though :v:

Well, I could probably fix that. Here are the originals, plus two three I didn't goldenifiy yet. Edit: lets make this into a poll.
