    [​IMG] In bg1 i liked minsc because of boo <squeak> although i had to kill him because i took to long to get dynhaier. So my favourite character ended up probably being tiax because he will rule.

    [​IMG] Yeslick is the best. Am I the only one who thinks he rocks? Also, he is able to join the party just when the game is really gaining some steam. I may have to play this game again. Its huge!

    Bettr part of valor, better part of valor!

    My favorites in BG were Minsc and Khalid, with Xan a close third.

    I can't imagine playing BG without Minsc

    Khalid is such a sissie, it's hilarious! :mommy:

    Xan's whining cracks me up! "The sun shines, and I'm amazed to see another day!" :lol:

    Hmmm... Hard to say which is my favourite...
    Khalid, Kivan, Coran, Korax, Xzar, Xan, Edwin, Montaron, Minsc, Melicamp, Larry, Darryl, Darryl or the-fastest-dart-thrower-in-the-world(whatever his name is)?

    Hmmm... *thinking* hmmmmmm...

    Khalid. With Coran and Kivan close after.

    Damn! I forgot him! *me goes back to edit the previous post*

    Korax would be my favourite if you could bring him with you, like a pet or even as a party member. 'Tis a pity he only gets dire charmed.

    Korax will eat your enemies!

    Ok, I think everybody told what NPC he likes most. Let's now change the topic a bit. Who is the most annoying or dumb NPC?

    For me, I go for Korax again... after a while he started to get ennoying :)

    Noober. When I'm passing through Nashkel, I always cast hold person on him so he can't talk.

    OK, then it's Quayle the hrrm... smart gnome. He really improved in BG2, it's just a pity you can't have him in your party then.

    Hmm, the character I found the most fun to have in the party is probably Quayle. He's amusing without being idiotic and is useful to boot. I like Khalid too, but the BG1 Jaheira is just awful (a stark contrast to the BG2 version, which I like alot). I'm too soft hearted to deliberately kill off Jaheira just to keep Khalid. Looking at dialogue files, I'd think Alora would be pretty funny to have around, especially in an evil tending party. However, IIRC, her thief skill distribution wasn't a very good match for my playstyle, so I never kept her around. :(

    From an effectiveness POV, I'd rate Kivan the highest. He laid waste to everything. Can't live without him. :)
