For some reason, I never considered changing Mazzy's class. That's a great idea, thanks. Minsc would also make a great Inquisitor.
I suppose I'll decide between Monk and Cleric/Ranger by just looking at my fantasy art collection until I find something that works as a portrait. First one I find becomes my character! Thanks for the suggestions, VonDondu
[edit] I haven't actually changed classes with Shadow keeper before. Is there a little tutorial on how to do it anywhere? I checked on the mud-master website as well as a quick google search but I haven't turned up anything. So far I'm just changing Minsc's stats to those of a freshly created inquisitor PC, but I'm running into issues when adding detect evil/true sight (it's saying he has too many spells of that level already).
Actually, I imagine it'd be easier if I just put his XP at 0, changed his class, and leveled him back up with CLUA commands, but I'm not certain which abilities the NPCs should be getting at level one...
[edit part 2] I have found
a thread on these very forums about modifying Jaheria to ranger/cleric. It looks like the steps provided would work for any NPC modification, but step 8 worries me.

8) Don't touch the affects tab, Jaheira has none of importance.

I assume this means other NPCs would have affects that would need editing in/out?
[edit part 3] Well, it seems that changing Minsc to an inquisitor has worked so far. I just did what
this post (also by you, Von!) described except I left his XP total alone--when I loaded the game, he leveled up to the appropriate level and automatically gained the abilities an inquisitor should have. I'm unsure if his 171 HP is appropriate for a level 8, though, since my 18 CON monk only has 88.
[edit 4] Sorry for the spam here -_-
Anyway, I gave it another shot and set Minsc's base HP to 1 before leveling him up as an inquisitor and now he's at 102 HP--that seems a little bit better than 171.
His saving throws seem spot on--I didn't have to change anything there. Proficiencies seem out of whack, though. He only got two pips to spend when I leveled him up to 8, but my PC test inquisitor had six to spend when I first made her.
