Interesting... havent seen any of this before.

Thats definately Elminster in one of the screen shots but as for that portrait...isnt that Montaron below the new one ? New ones certainly no Drow but its not how I imagined Saemon looking... he looks too old.

Any more info surfaced on this yet??

PS thanks for the links Pope - this must be your only topic they haven't closed down so far.

Actually, I'm wondering what the top picture is. Never seen it.

And I bet the 2nd portrait is the wild-mage. Although it looks really cool for some undead type creature.

Of course, Bioware may not have to play by all the rules, but the portraits look like an evil party w/ Montaron and Viconia - so maybe that's not the mystery new pc.

As for my vote, I'd go with elminster. It ought to be someone of sufficient power. Heck, maybe they made Boo into a real life character.

Are you implying that Boo isn't a real life character? I can assure you, he's far more real than you or I. Such blasphemous words will not be further tolerated. Image

I think it is either Saemon Havarian or Solufein. You might think that Saemon betrayed you, but then he betrayed you before, so it might be him!

Or maybe it is Alaundo himself!!! (forgive me if he's dead)

Now guess who S.A. Salvarore character show in BG I. (besides Drizzt)
Volo, for example.
Note, there is also a character in both, IMHO, who does absolutely nothing save waiting, say, a ship.
Correct me, if i'm wrong. Image

BTW, actually it is. When i investigated the stats of monsters, i run into Boo, too. However, it might be as Minisc's familiar, those were represented, too.

But there is one small problem - familiars are in main inventory not in quick items slots - even they cannot be moved from one place to another in the inventory, so it could mean that Boo is only an item (like Imoen's belt in chap.1). What is more, he couldn't be released like other familiars - but I hope that guys from Bioware would do something in this matter.

New NPC in ToB ? I agree with others that think about Saemon Havarian - He is very funny guy - betrays you twice, escapes but I cannot hate him - he could be alternative for Yoshimo (only one pure thief in game that dies whatever you do).

It might be Gorion...
Just take a look at [url="http://www.planetbg.com"]www.planetbg.com[/url]
In case you're too late, and it has already been replaced, here's an interesting part:
Hmmm...how can I put this carefully?

...OK, here goes:

Gorion does play a part in Throne of Bhaal. In fact, you learn quite a bit about him, as well as yourself.

Beyond that, I'm not sayin'.
Hmm...

@The_Pope: Gorion supposedly died in Baldur's Gate.....if they had thought of bringing him back why didn't he appear in BG2-SoA???? I guess in the "Forgotten Realms" though this wouldn't be impossible.....I mean Gorion coming back from the dead.......
