    Well I musta played SOA about 5 million times by now (ok I have only finished through TOB twice LOL, but I restart alot) However I always take Imoen from the underdark..can I just leave here in spellhold and she finds her way out or is she stuck there?

    When you drop her she'll return to CC, so no problems. You can leave her but that's cruel.

    You want cruel? In BG1, when I don't want her in the party from the beginning, I shoot her in the face before she can get to me! Then I take her stuff (ooh, a wand!) and beat the s*** out of Xzar and Montaron without so much as a "Ho there guys, now you die!" Now that's cruel. :evil: So, if you really don't want her, just kill her!

    @ Aslyn

    Sure, depending are you a roleplayer or powergamer. Most of us roleplayers would take her along, but if you want to powergame or just some change, you can just forget that she was even there. The game itself does not try to limit who you take and who don't.

    @Ofelix:
    Well, I usually only only kill her if I have a thief variant (F/T, M/T, etc.) for my PC (20% of the time) and I'm soloing (50% of the time), so I only kill her one time in ten. Otherwise, I let her into the party, even if I'm soloing, because I always need a thief to disarm traps and open some locks.
    P.S. Finally somebody recognizes that I'm a talking cat! Thank you! :love: :thumb: :banana:

    Not at all, I'm very dextrous with my claws. :) (Though I do have to replace my keyboard fairly often. :o And whose bright idea was it to name that thing a mouse and give it a tail! :mad: )

    Yeah, but thanks to said bozo, I have to try hard to resist swatting it across the room.
    P.S. Did you know that there are actually mouse covers that make it look like a real (squeeking) mouse? :rolleyes:

    As I said, I only kill her if I don't need her, like when I'm going solo. It's revenge for her inane comments in BG1, and her disturbing comments in BG2. :evil:

    @ KrowKnight: why NOT kill Imoen? Aerie is a much better thief/mage than Imoen is... Her thieving skills are more than sufficient, and she's a far better caster than Imoen...
    Just because she's our sister, doesn't mean we have to go all weak about her...

    I've always had problems with traps and Aerie. But she does have nice healing abilities, which Imoen never will. ;)

    If you just talk to her, an option will come up "There's no room for you at my side," and she will show up in the Copper Coronet.

    BTW, Spliff, wanna get rid of that huge storyline spoiler?

    Nalia has 16 int, but Imoen has 17 int. Nalia is only lev 3 (or 5) thief, Imoen is lev 6 (or 8) thief. Nalia's theiving skill is not even enough for her own keep to get party through.

    Conclusion? Imoen is better thief and mage than Nalia and she is CHARNAME's sister. What do you want more?

    BTW what are their exact thief level?
