    In the final video after you've decked Jono it shows him getting killed by slayers, yah?

    Well after that it shows green robed guys talkin' about your death,charming enough but also in chapter 6/7 when travelling inbetween areas you get attacked by green people who transform into you

    Who the hell are they!!!

    I actually don't know.

    I do believe it is already answered in ToB forum, but I really don't want to read it there and spoil discovering it in ToB (when I start to play it).

    Extremist, You are going to start Tob???? Shock Horror :aaa: :eek:

    As for the question: there are several theories flying around, but wouldn't want to post them here and provide spoilers for those who haven't played ToB yet.

    I just have the feeling they are Priests of Bhaal, there was a 'sign' of Bhaal (the skull with the drops around it)in the middle of the table they sit at when they speak about you....

    How come, then, they look like the cowled wizards? And anyway the Bhall priesthood were slain by their Deitys' own death

    Their robes are green? I thought they were dark grey myself.

    *slightly spoilerish Throne of Bhaal comment, but just my opinion*

    I think they are other children of Bhaal. Abazigal and Sendai themselves are sitting among them and discussing the future and things to come *coughThroneofBhaalcough* Why they are doing this I won't reveal. That isn't my opinion anymore, but a fact, buy Throne of Bhaal and find out yourself :p

    Since there was a Bhaal-sign on the table I dont think it were Cowled Wizkids. Could be Bhaal spawn, yeah...

    [​IMG] They are other Bhaalspawn. And yes, this has been answered before, but I think in this forum. At the time when BioWare finished BG2, they didn't have the whole ToB worked out, so they're all in human form (i.e. look like humans), but actually they should be of various races, like you encounter in ToB.

    Anyway, this is very verging on ToB, so post any further inquiries in the ToB forum.

    The people in green who transform into copies of you are dopplegangers, IIRC. Why they would want to attack you, I forget, but I doubt they have connection with the people at the end.

    The people you meet and transform into you are not dopplegangers but rakshasa.

    In SoA you never learn who in fact sent them.

    Green Robes, Looking like Cowled wizards...

    Welcome to The Return Of The Tutors!
    If i'm not mistaken, those guys look exactly like the Tutors who teach you how to play the game in BG1.

    Any ideas?

    There were six of them. The council of the Cowled Wizards...

    Check the game, go to the government district and talk around a bit, they surely give some information about this council or however it is called.
    I'm pretty sure that they are Cowled Wizards.

    PS: Those were not green robes, rather darkgrey robes..

    Who are cowled wizards for sure Desu?

    The wizards in the counsil of the cowled wizards?
    The tutors?
    Those around the last table?
    Those who attacks you after transforming?

    They are ALL Cowled Wizards! It's a conspiracy! A conspiracy I tell you!!!

    But there are few things during the game which sort of confused me. Both that Gnome in the circus and the Troll in Nalia's keep hinted they were working for someone else. Who?

    The Cowled Wizards? The harpers? Irenicus? Bodhi? Firkraag? Bioware? Tiax? Kasio?

    And still I could see that Bhaal-icon on the table. What do cowled wizards have to do with Bhaal? Or the Tutors? Unless it is a conspiracy...

    Actually there were 7 of these dark grey slightly green figures at that table...knowing that that Spawn of Bhaal is doomed....

    The five, your ToB (blankname) enemy, and someone like Saemon or Volo (saemon goes anywhere) (Volo might be recording about you, but then again he doesn't like Halfling holes)
