    I'm just looking at a list of joinable NPC's and thier stats and I found Kivan....a guy i think i had bumped into by a wizards tower. He appeaRS to be a really impressive NPC and I want him in my party however I think the dialogue options I chose sent him off on his own even though they were friendly. Anyone know of a way I could get him back>?...or mayby theres a place where NPC's go when you reject them....I find alot of these guys take off never to be seen again.

    Nope, if you blow them off they're gone. However, you can CLUA him back in and try again.

    CLUAConsole:CreateCreature("kivan")

    ^That'll create a level one Kivan. You can also use "kivan2", "kivan4", and "kivan6" for levels 2, 4, & 6 respectively. The game picks which one based on your party's average level, but if you want a higher level Kivan, that's your prerogative. Hope this helps. :)

    I figured that would be the only way.......How do I activate console commands? I have to download something dont I? I usually try to stay away from console commands because last time I played BG2 I ended up cheating and just point jumping to spots and using that command that automatically put any npc into your party (which was really cool). Anyway i'll put Kivan in there and just remove whatever file i had to add afterwards or hit my head really hard.

    From Dan Simpson's walkthrough. Hope this is what you needed. Don't forget to copy your baldur.ini file before making the changes in case it messes up something.
