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 feel like this needs to be reposted.

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.



13 Tarsakh, 1370

I feel like I'm leaving Candlekeep all over again. I've practically lived here at the Jovial Juggler for almost a year. I mean I have to pay, but everybody knows me here, I always return here, and I long to be here when I'm in some dank dungeon killing increasingly disgusting monsters.



But if I am going to stop the Iron Throne from constantly hounding me and everyone that I care about, I'm going to have to go after them. I'm going to have to go to Baldur's Gate. Before I do, though, I need to do something about my equipment. I can't go up against a lucrative international consortium with scrub gear.

First stop is Thunderhammer Smithy. Taerom makes us another offer about the wyvern heads we are carrying.



I would like some time to think upon your generous offer. In the meantime, might I see your wares?

I sell 23 suits of Plate Mail Armor, and Excellent Short Sword, an Excellent Dagger, an Excellent Short Bow, an Excellent Halberd, and an Excellent Two Handed Sword for 4,105 gold, which brings my total gold to 20,874. I also jot down what he told me about the wyvern heads.

THUNDERHAMMER'S UPGRADE RECIPES:
* 9000gp + wyvern head = wyvern armor, elemental and poison resist

Then I take a trip to my Armory and load up my Bags of Holding, Potion Case, and Spellbook with everything that I own. I clean the place out. Then I take it all to Thalantyr.



I have with me a rather strange sword. It is not for sale, however. Would you mind looking at it?

I need not touch it to tell you that is cursed... Wait... It doesn't seem likely, but... I had not expected to see that damned artifact in this lifetime! Revenge of the Vampire, if my memory does not fail me. Yes... and unlocks what was it?

I believe it is the key to something.

Yes! It IS a key! But to what, I cannot remember. Some store of hidden magic... You will have to find someone more learned in these evil artifacts crafted in days long past. Maybe the Priest of Gond in Baldur's Gate, or a fortune teller could tell you more! I want NOTHING to do with this!

I didn't mean to touch a nerve. Sorry...

Gameplay note: I'm pretty sure he's talking about this sword:



I thought our quest related to this sword was done. We brought it to that cave out behind the Song of the Morning Temple and released the three spirit dude, and then got the stuff behind him. But maybe there's more to it?

Then, I show my entire inventory to Thalantyr and ask him if he can upgrade anything. I get a little lost on the details, but I do manage to jot down the recipes for everything, despire Shar-Teel's distractions.



THALANTYR'S UPGRADE RECIPES (missing ingredients in bold):
* 3000gp + berserk sword + 2 Remove Curse scrolls + 2 Horror scrolls
* 5000gp + Gauntlets of Weapon Skill + Gauntlets of Weapon Expertise + Bracers of Defense AC7, Potion of Defense
* 5000gp + Mage Robes of Fire Resistance, Cold Resistance, Electrical Resistance, Knave's Robe, Traveler's Robe and Adventurer's Robe + Potion of Invulnerability + Potion of Defense
* 5000gp + Golden Girdle + Girdle of Bluntness + Girdle of Piercing + Potion of Frost Giant Strength + Potion of Cloud Giant Strength + Potion of Regeneration
* 4000gp + 2 Rings of Protection +1 + Diamond + 2 Pearls = Ring of Protection +2
* 5000gp + Helm of Glory + Helm of Defense: Gift of Peace + Potion of Invulnerability + Scrolls of Protection from Fire, Cold, and Electricity

He doesn't come right out and say what he can make with these, but we trust it to be better than it used to be. We can get the scrolls with Firebead's help. We teleport back to the armory to talk to him. We also drop off Jet'laya and Ferthgil at the Jovial Juggler.



The first thing we do with Firebead is get him to scribe out two copies of Strength, two copies of Army of One, and two copies of Greater Malison for both Imoen and myself. He also scribes one copy of Dire Charm, Ettin's Healing, Summon Lesser Air Elemental, and Summon Lesser Fire Elemental just for Imoen.





After all that scribing I try to get him to scribe some Remove Curse and Horror scrolls. He points out that we have two Horror scrolls already, and that he doesn't know the spell Remove Curse. I will have to go to Thalantyr again. And while I'm at it, I need to get some Potions of Defense.



Turns out Thalantyr doesn't have any Potions of Defense, but he does have the scrolls of Break Enchantment/Remove Curse. Then we talk to him about the sword again.



Yes, make it for me.

He does some magical mumbo-jumbo, and when he is done, we have the Sword of Rage.



So we decide to go check elsewhere for Potions of Defense.



We do find one at Al-Mustafa's All Things Magical in the Friendly Arm Inn courtyard.



And since we are here, we decide to go talk to whats-his-face the dwarf smith.



Yeah. Thorengrim Hammerfist.

THORENGRIM'S UPGRADE RECIPES (missing ingredients in bold):

* 5000gp + spider body = Spider's Bane Sword w/ poison damage
* 5000gp + Boots of Speed + Scimitar+2 = Hasted Scimitar
* 8000gp + Ring of Fire Resistance + Scroll of Protection from Fire + Potion of Fire Resistance = better protection from fire
* 4000gp + Chainmail of the Dead + Diamond + Potion of Defense = better chainmail
* 10000gp + Girdle of Piercing + Potion of Fire Giant Strength = give incredible strength
* 6000gp + Wyvern Head = Wyvern head helm

After much consideration, I think that the most appealing items are the wyvern helm and armor, the better protection from fire ring, the strength belt, and the mage robe that Thalantyr will make. But altogether that stuff costs 38,000 gold. I ponder. I look in my bag. I realize that I have 9 Two Handed Swords +3 that I picked up from various skeleton warriors around Faerun. I think I will never actually use those, so I make the choice to sell them.



Selling those gets me up to 18,324 gold. I have to make some tough choices. But in the end, Thalantyr's mage robe and a belt of great strength win out.



Sure thing. Go ahead and make it.

Thorengrim Hammerfist busies himself with his work until he makes the Improved Girdle Elves' Bane for us.



Awesome! Someone's strength troubles will soon be over! For now, I wear it to help me in inventory juggling.



Gameplay note: Just look at those numbers! I am like unto a tiny god!

We go back to Thalantyr as well and have him make the mage robe for us.



Yes, make it for me.

When he finishes, we have something that cannot be frowned upon.



It is even better than the Robe of the Good Archmagi that Imoen normally wears! I'll give this to her next time out.

Our next errand is to meet up with Finch and give her all the new books we found in her absence. Her personal library is getting rather large:

But we can only stop to talk for a little while with her, because I'm not giving up on this taming animals thing. I pick up Kivan and we go animal-taming.



Kivan's presence keeps the animals calm, and I am able to walk up to a bear and pet him without it getting aggressive.



But if I try again too quickly, the bear loses interest.



Gameplay note: For animals, you can only do this once a turn, which is 10 rounds. And one round is 6 seconds. So I can only do this once a minute, and it takes quite a few shows of friendship before they are close enough to join the party. Best to do this when you are also doing laundry or rewatching episodes of Community, like I am!

We casually surround the bear so that it doesn't wander away, and begin the slow process of showing it our friendship.



Kivan approves of what I am doing.



This is such a waste of time, or should I say men are such a waste of time.

Oh for the love of the gods woman will you give it a rest for five minutes? I think this bear is starting to come around. It used to give off a distinctly unfriendly vibe.



This isn't as easy as it looks.



Insects everywhere!



And then the Weave tries to help me out.



It actually does help to be able to tell the black bear where to go. And when we finally achieve Closeness, then I invite him to the party!



Gameplay note: After I saw his stats, I had to make him a berserker. This animal is a whole lot better integrated than the cow was.



Look at all those hit points! He's got one more than Shar-Teel, heh. He's also stronger than her and has better INT. ha!



He's got a paperdoll. Those guys at One Pixel Productions think of everything. He can even wear armor! His name is Black Bear. It's a string reference. I can't change it.

Our mission accomplished, we continue on our way. Kivan says we should stop by and talk to the Sirines near the lighthouse. Perhaps they will help us? We travel there. Once we get there, the first thing we see is a small squirrel.



Showing friendship to the little guy is actually rather difficult. I have to follow him around everywhere.



We finally manage to trap the little bastard up against a tree.



And after a few minutes of terrified squirrel, it seems to calm down.



And I get it to come along with us too!



Is seems like trapping this little guy against a tree for a while has taught him valuable lessons about not running away in the face of adversity.



Gameplay note: He also has a paperdoll. And if we give him the Improved Girdle Elves' Bane, he can actually use equipment.





We run into a little trouble on our way to the beach.



But I can pretty much take care of it.



And when we get to the beach, the friendly sirines are just hanging out, wandering around. I approach one and try to make a deal.



After a little negotiating, I'm feeling pretty close.



Gameplay note: It just takes 1,000 gold to bribe the monster.



I don't know how this picture got here.



I make her an aquatic druid, because why not?



And then I go back to the Jovial Juggler, for what may be the last time.



Everyone else is ready to go. Now, I just have to choose which people to take directly with me, and which will come after we've cleared the way.

Mechanical analysis

Black Bear
Berserker
18/00 12 18 16 9 9

Comments: Berserker is a default BG2 kit, and it's a good one. Fighters are pretty good once they get rolling, and berserk is a powerful ability - its immunities may not seem like much now, but they can be a lifesaver in BG2. Mr. Bear backs up a good class with all the stats he needs. The only question is just how much gear he can actually equip.

Verdict (if it can use weapons, armor, and equipment): :black101:

Verdict (if it can't): :hist101:

Squirrel
Dreadnought
3 3 3 9 9 9

Comments: Worse than it seems, and that's saying something. I'm all for comedy options, but ignoring the fact that the Squirrel doesn't even meet the requirements for Dreadnought - which is a solid kit - Squirrel has one damning problem. With the stat adjustment from Dreadnought, Squirrel has a Dex of 1. If that doesn't sound like a problem, consider that, if I remember right, any state reduced to 0 instantly puts the character into a coma. This is why Minsc can be problematic when fighting Mind Flayers and their Int drain. Simply put, anything that reduces Dex, however temporarily, would instantly take Squirrel out of the fight for the duration. A joke character is one thing, but Squirrel is just a bad joke.

Verdict: :commissar:

Sirine
Aquatic Druid
14 18 12 14 14 20

Comments: Sigh. Say hello to another case of "What the hell was the kit maker thinking?" I'm guessing that "is not affected by the majority of vaporous gasses" means "immune to stinking cloud, cloudkill, and maybe horrid wilting," but who knows? Miss Big Tits is also left without armor and forced into melee - which is code for "will only shapeshift" unless the Sea Guard thing (which I can't even tell what it means) prevents Big Tits from turning into a wolf or the like. And shapeshifting is on the crappy side anyhow, bar the rebalanced Shapeshifter kit. This is important, because Anime Godiva here lacks the stats for melee, her 20 Charisma is wasted, and her 18 Dex is also negated by the kit. Sirine is just plain bad.

Verdict: :commissar:



And my votes:

+1 Imoen
+1 Yeslick
+1 Minsc
-1 Squirrel
-1 Shar-Teel

The squirrel is pretty much never going to be even passingly decent with its stats. For the sirine? Sorcerer or anything that puts a bow in her hand will make her good. Bear is good as-is, but with that stat spread anything that involves the front lines would work.

There's a complete absense of healers in this party, but considering how hideously overpowered Sylvishtar(a) is right now, I don't think it really matters.

Killer.
+5 Sirine

The Sirine and Black Bear for the humor and Viconia at random. Edit: Dropped the bear votes since it's getting in anyway. I'm a bit tired of canon characters, so let's go all in on something totally new.
