    ...a character of BG, who would you be. I mean, race, class, proficiencies....

    I'd go with a human sorcerer with my robe of vecna, ring of wizardry and ring of gaxx, staff of magi, amulet of power, a belt raising strenght. Not so bad....

    I´d be my beer loving, beast hating, red haired - dwarf!! He´s a berserker and strong as hell..
    Honestly, I can say that I think that Dwarfs are the coolest race in fantasy. Elves are thin little wimps :D

    Elves rule and are the coolest race of Faerun. Well, an elven ranger maybe

    What is the robe of vecna and where can you find it? (did I ask this before?? I can't remember)

    [​IMG] I would probably be a monk ;). Thinking that they are overpowered and all. I would also use a big and get Keldorn's Armour ;)

    Oh and the Robe of Vecna - Bonus Merchants, the one in Ribald's Store.

    I would have to be a random Dwarven commoner - the kind that can't say anything other than "by moradin's hammer", "I need a swig o' some strong dwarven ale" and "me temper's bad enough wi'out ye botherin' me". Maybe Cromwell's missing apprentice. hmmm could be a quest in there...

    [​IMG] We've answered this question many times but its such a cool question so thats cool. I would probably be a Priest somewhere in the Temple district. Probably just walking around and shopping for books and carrying a cool Mace or Flail.

    I'd be a human rogue (prolly swashbuckler), with a dagger +1 in each hand, a green cloak with red stripes, no armor and a big yellow blink dog at my side

    A fat merchant; living in luxury in a grand estate in the Goverment district paid for by buying valuable items from stupid adventurers for a pittance and then selling them with a 1000% markup.

    I'd be a Mage/thief with high level hide in shadows, invisibility, and polymorph, along with those charm spells, just think of the possibilities.
     
  15. I know I am twisting the topic a bit, But If I should choose which character from BG2 i would be, I would go for Minsc. Not too much to think of and I like the forrest life. plus it is obvious that his tatoo attracts women.

    A plain answer would be a Elven ranger in leather armor, with a club or staff of some kind nothing fancy, just keeping a little village safe I like the idea of a long healthy life. Perhaps settle down in Umar :)

    [​IMG] I'd be a Dual Class Fighter/Cleric.
    Alignmnet: Lawful Good
    Race: Human

    Weapons: Dual Weild Katana & War Hammer (you can guess which ones I'd pick from BG2 :D) (I think a dc f/c can still use edged weapons)

    Nope - can't use Katana anymore (you'd think they would say something about that in the rules. . . )

    So, I guess I would wield Crom Fayr & the Flail of Ages.

    If you let me jump into a 3rd Edition World, I would be a Gray Elf Paladin/Cleric weilding a holy avenger sword.

    Alex the Grim Spoiler is slowly shredding the last remnants of joy left in my otherwise painful life!
