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

Yes, yes, I know. This has been done before – sort of. But what if they asked we SYMians to play the parts? Or what if there were an alternate reality and we suddenly became the characters we normally thought of as companions/irritants/troll fodder? Who would we be? Here’s my suggestions. Some fit like a glove, some I’m not so sure about. What do you think?
Ajantis – Nippy.
Alora – Vivien.
Branwen – T’lainya
Coran – Maharlika.
Dynaheir – Minerva
Edwin – Dottie.
Eldoth – HighLordDave.
Faldorn – Georgi.
Garrick – Gwalchmai.
Imoen – Yshania.
Jaheira – Der-Draigon
Kagain – Ned Flanders.
Khalid – Mr. Sleep.
Kivan – Thantor.
Minsc – Bloodstalker.
Montaron – Gruntboy.
Quayle – KidD01
Safana – C Elegans.
Shar-Teel – Scayde.
Skie – Enchantress.
Tiax – Weasel.
Viconia – Dragon Wench
Xan – Tamerlane.
Xzar – Waverly
Yeslick – Tybaltus.
Aerie – Aqua-Chan.
Anomen – CM.
Cernd – Aegis.
Haer'Dalis – Ode to a Grasshopper/das_hermit.
Jan – Beldin.
Keldorn – Fable.
Korgan – RandomThug.
Mazzy – VoodooDali.
Nalia – Mysteria.
Sarevok – Buck Satan.
Valygar – Chanak.
Yoshimo – der Moench.

I would have no problems with being Ajantis. He's a good Paladin, all apart from he dies! Dagnabbit! I don't die!

You don't deserve Minsc. He's smarter than you are!

I would smite you with a good butt-kicking, but Boo says the taste of paladins sours his stomach. He suggests equipping your plate mail with air holes to allow the smell to dissipate

Maybe a little later (when I have time) I'll edit in my reasonings...
Yeah, Weasel just works really well there.
Nippy, Ajantis is just young.
Enchantress: You know how these things work. If you do well in the first movie, then they'll bring you back in the next. Note I didn't even try to cast the supporting characters. You can be Bohdi.
I can't really say why, but Minsc was just the best place for BS!
Imagine BS drunk - that's almost like having a head wound! But who will play Boo, I wonder?

Heh. I turned you into a squirrel, you know. Then you had the gall to attack me!
Ingrate.
@Gwally: Quite a list there. At this time, I have no reaction to being cast as Valygar...(keeping in character, you know.
)

Typical goody-goody, he forgot to cast the villians - who are, of course, the most interesting characters.
