    seriously, I like ALL of them, except Vahilor and that burning guy, I just find the all justice thing and "firrrreeeeeeeee" plain out annoying, anyways, Morte is just dryly funny, and Nordom is just the robot guy, Annaha and Fall-From-Grace are 2 very likeable opposites, and Dakkon very interesting.

    [​IMG] I thought Annahs' accent was more Irish than Scottish

    Well I've lived in Ireland for 10 years after living in Newcastle(Near Scottish Border). And I can say with authority that Annah's accent is from southern Scotland. Near Edinburgh I'd say.

    [​IMG] I stand corrected, I obviously judge by Glaswegion standards
     
  7. [​IMG] Soul here. I don't know about the rest of you guys, but I personally like Nordom. "I think, therefore I am... I think." How could you not like that? Then there's the added humour that it sometimes talks in programming code. It doesn't even HAVE a gender, and it has infinite ammo for its crossbows. Add that up to the fact that it's a Modron gone 'rogue', and you've got yourself a keeper.

    Oh. Yeah.

    Just for the record, none of the people on the polls are NPCs. NPCs are characters that don't join the group, not characters that aren't the player character. These are our favourite PCs.

    Just one more thing.

    For those of you arguing over Annah's accent, I don't know if she's Irish or Scotish, but Bioware DID realease a patch quite a while back that changed her graphics so she was dressed like... well she was dressed like a stripper. But the stripper was dressed like a leprecaun, with four-leaf clovers for weapons. Just so you know.

    Actually they are NPC's because they don't represent the player. The player represented by the TNO. The others are NPC's because although you control them they aren't you. Yes i do know that the journal makes it seem different but i am right :p

    [​IMG] The more you listen to Annahs voice - the more Scottish it sounds, though it is a sort of mix between the two ;)

    (trying to play PS:T without a clue at what I'm doing...)

    Yea, they also released an "Easter Egg Morte" patch too. Doesn't make him from Jerusalem (or whatever).

    "Actually they are NPC's because they don't represent the player. The player represented by the TNO. The others are NPC's because although you control them they aren't you."

    This is a common belief among computer gamers but it is wrong. PC is any character in the party that the player controls. You still control everything Annah or Morte does (aside from a few instances in dialog). Someone like Ravel or the Angry Hive Dwellers would be NPCs.

    [​IMG] that depends if you count PC as Player Controlled or Player Character.

    I dunno who I like the most - but I voted for morte, I've also got Annah and Fall-From-Grace in my party, hoping to get more though...

    Dak'kon is THE coolest NPC ever created. His voice is cool, his class is cool, his dialogues are by far te best in the entire game! I love him! :love:

    Vhailor you won't meet for quite a while, and Nordom is found inside the Modron Cube that Vrishika in the Clerk's Ward sells.

    You have to talk with a couple a strange women in the Clerk's Ward while you have the Decanter of Infinite Water to learn the code word. I can't remember their names ATM.

    I had to pick Annah...i got a think for tails on females...plus she cool as hell. Her attitude and whole style of action, plus her past and the shadow ablilties, those are so cool.

    RESURECTION!!! :D


    I liked Morte the most, but Ignus is just so damn cool. He's the only character in a game that has ever even slightly creeped me out. awesome.
