    Has anyone other than me noticed that every single romance choice is a cleric or druid of some kind, I guess this is so thay will allways be useful (raise dead) and you won't be torn between a good party and good role playing.

    Just a thought,

    cheers, Void.

    I noticed that too.... I personally think it's intended to make you miserable when Bodhi vampirizes (is that a word?) your lover. No cleric, so no false dawn or bolt of glory or turning undead.....

    I never really had time to think about that. I think that it is a coincidence(sp) as well.

    It might be a coinsidence but say they were all fighters then you might not want to actually use any avaliable romances. I will often make a party with no plain fighters in it.

    Cheers, Void.

    That, and all your lovers have elvin blood. Not that I am complaining. Elves are very good looking by all RPG accounts.

    What if you were a male human mage and the romantic option was a half-orc fighter. Are you seeing why they were probably druid/cleric elves?

    Oricalum: Anomen is human, i.e. not of elven blood.

    I think they chose healer's just to annoy your other party members. Luckily, this break let me go and do the Planar Sphere.

    Tarom,

    I don't see your point why they all were druid/cleric elves. I can understand why they made them human and/or elven and not gnomes, dwarves, or half-orcs but I would have liked if they made their classes different. Maybe one a mage, one a fighter(or fighter-like) and one a cleric or druid. Although, possibly something like what void said in his first post, that they wanted you to pick a romance more on the character's personality rather than their class. I really don't think that their classes were just "accidents".

    Well Anomen is a dork so thats an exception. Boy does he get on my nerves. Anyway, I dont think guys are attracted to the fighter types but hey if you are, good for you!

    Lemme see now, if a human had a romance with a halfling then the offspring would be a half-halfling?
