    Since I've removed a number of avatars from inactive accounts I'm sorting them back on the list of available ones, but it's been a long time since I played through all of the IE games, so my memory's a bit rusty when it comes to certain sprites. I need your help identifying which game the sprites come from (originally) and which creature they are.

    I'll be adding them to this post as I come along any that I'm not 100% sure of:

    Looks like an air elemental at full opacity. Probably BG2 because I don't recall seeing them before that.

    That's what I thought too, though what I googled didn't exactly look like that.

    Probably because they always appear translucent and it's hard to tell, but I'm quite certain that's one of the air elementals, and I think they only come in different sizes, not so much shapes.

    You're not gonna make this easy, are you?

    First one is a dark planetar (or fallen deva) from BG2.

    Second is a red half-dragon from IWD2. I don't think red ones are actually in the game, but that's what it is.

    Last one is obviously a chimera, but I don't think the actual creature can be found in any of the games. Pretty sure it does have an animated sprite in the game files though.

    I need to think on the third one. Looks familiar but I can't put my finger on it.

    Edit: It has to be one of the special goblin types from IWD2, it's just a weird frame.

    Edit 2: Having checked the screens, Ghotrag (one of the goblin chieftains in IWD2) uses that sprite. Not sure if there are any more.

    Thanks, I think the third is some kind of goblin from IWD2? Goblin Elite something?

    And some more:

    Elites look different, I've seen the sprite referred to as "goblin berserker", but I haven't been able to find any others aside from the chieftain I mentioned.

    That's an Aurumach Rilmani. I think you can only find them in ToB.
