What if they made a movie of Baldur’s Gate and SYMians had to play all the parts?

Ysh, But don’t you feel badly that Jan got the axe (literally) so that there would be room for you in the party?

I think this could be a really moving scene in the film. Waverly, the heroic PC, feigns conflicted emotions as he mercifully ends Jan’s existence, lest he fall into misfortune on his own. There is only a hint of Waverly’s inner glee at the prospect of killing yet another NPC.

So you are saying I wasn't actually rescued per se by the great protagonist then? Just sort of let off the hook for a while?

@Ysh,
well do recall that Imoen is also a Bhaal spawn, just think of all those untapped powers

Waverly · Post by **Waverly** » Mon May 05, 2003 1:24 pm

No, no. I liked Imoen. Plus she's got the whole family thing going for her. Not so with Cernd, Valygar, Jan, and a few others.

Rest assured, in my version, Imoen lives happily ever after.

@DW and Waverly, LOL! I am almost flattered, were I able to trust you two!

Well, there's the power-hungry and forceful Faldorn or the righteous and complex Jahiera. Somehow it didn't seem like you. Despite the fact that you are almost unbearably beautiful and worthy of infinite lust, I think you have managed to worm you way into everybody's hearts as the sister we all wish we had.

Immy is good for you. Plus that Bhaal-spawn stuff works for you too.

I think this really sums up the Imoen character for me, and how you would undoubtedly play her:

Keldorn vs Imoen [ToB]

At one point while wandering in the wilderness Keldorn catches Imoen rifling through his things. He gets extremely stern about it and Imoen only stammers responses so I was worried it might actually become serious. Suddenly Imoen comes out and confesses that she just took any excuse to run her hands over his muscular body. Now its Keldorn's turn to stammer as Imoen goes on to confess at length that his presense drives her wild. Keldorn replies that he "had no idea that he had such an effect on her", after which Imoen finally breaks down with the giggles and returns his ring, promising not to take it again.

You deny it?

Yshania · Post by **Yshania** » Mon May 05, 2003 2:23 pm

I didn't think I was that obviously devious

Gwalchmai · Post by **Gwalchmai** » Mon May 05, 2003 2:25 pm

Think devious in a 'twisted' sense, Sister!

Waverly · Post by **Waverly** » Mon May 05, 2003 2:27 pm

No, no. Keldorn dies horribly when he sports an attitude about where Waverly can go and what he can do in the sewers under the Temple District.

Touche!

Though I want to see how my adopted hero, Waverly, pans out in script before I accept the part

@Waverly LMAO!

You are so....sensitive!

Mind you, the way I have it Waverly dies a horrible death when he attempts to un-polymorph Monty in front of the Harper's Hall.....

I can't believe someone would revel in such senseless bloodshed.

Yshania · Post by **Yshania** » Mon May 05, 2003 2:37 pm

So where does that leave poor Immy/Ysh?

ROFL! Resurrection is cheap, as you well know.

More classic Imoen:

Imoen vs Sarevok [ToB]

At some point Sarevok may happen to die in combat. Upon his resurrection Imoen will immediately taunt Sarevok's weakness in battle, asking repeatedly what it feels like to die for a SECOND time. Sarevok grows angry and blows off the conversation, saying that Imoen most likely kept temples in business with the amount of money the PC dumped to revive her so many times.

You'd be in trouble if Waverly somehow lands the "lovable" Irenicus role....

Yshania · Post by **Yshania** » Mon May 05, 2003 2:46 pm

Gwally, you are making me sound more and more like a burden!

Maybe I should have kept Keldorn's ring to pay for the next resurrection myself?

*sigh* I was always hopeless as a thief!

Good point.

Lots of wierd stuff could go on at Chateau de Irenicus. What kind of rating are we looking for, at least an NC-17?

Which is why the PC encourages you to pursue your interest in the Magic Arts!
