    Hi,

    Might not be a bug, just a very rare planned occurence that no one has seen yet.

    After browsing this forum it seems that
    1. Not many people like Nalia and certainly wouldn't play her through to end chapter 3.
    2. Not many people opt to side with Bodhi
    3. Add the random element the nalia vampire script might have....

    and you are left with the possibility that it might be rare planned occurence.

    The fact that she comes back with an innate ability to change into a vampire sounds very script like.

    Go out in daylight and see what happens.

    Cheers,

    Wittynewt.

    P.S. never understood why Nalia gets such a bad press. She is the second best mage in the game and the best good one. Her stats are better than Imoen, you get here early on and so can set her up how you want and she doesn't "lose" all those xp points like Imoen does. Her only disadvantage is that she is a useless thief. My mc f/t doesn't need a thief and so Nalia is a great mage who wields a short bow of which there are plenty of great ones. halfway through chapter 2 and Nalia is doing great.... my only problem as others have mentioned is her personality! When I get to chapter 4 I'll have both Imoen and Nalia and the back row is sorted!

    Do you have LaVir's templates installed? They become active with a saved game if a character leaves the party then returns. That would explain why it happened, but if you don't have those templates then... I have no idea.

    Definitely not a planned occurence. It's happening because of something you installed--probably templates as Masher suggests.
