Domi Posted November 23, 2005 Share Posted November 23, 2005 After playing a lot of TUTU and loving Andyr's Garrick a lot (and also being not fond of Imoen) I was toying with the idea of reversing Garrick and Imoen's roles for a female player mod - ie Garrick is your childhood buddy, and Imoen is some girl in Beregost. Then Garrick could go on to be the child of Bhaal. Being a bard he fits perfectly into BG2 plot. Link to comment
Echon Posted November 23, 2005 Share Posted November 23, 2005 What is so special about the bard class in relation to Baldur's Gate II? -Echon Link to comment
Domi Posted November 23, 2005 Author Share Posted November 23, 2005 He can cast that fateful magic missle - the whole justification for making Imoen a mage, lol. Link to comment
Borsook Posted November 23, 2005 Share Posted November 23, 2005 While I'm not intersted in female player thingy the idea is still brilliant, I've always taken Garrick in BG1 and last time in BG2 I actually killed Imoen. In other words I'm 100% for! Link to comment

Domi Posted November 23, 2005 Author Share Posted November 23, 2005 Oh, well, yes, but then I remembered all the work with the godawful BG2.... and uhm, yeah. The patch for TUTU should be easy enough though. Providing one makes Imoen unjoinable. Edit: Yeah, I see all the problems now, bad idea. Link to comment

It should be doable, though it'd be a lot of work... Link to comment
Domi Posted November 23, 2005 Author Share Posted November 23, 2005 Every character reffering to getting Imoen, and 'her' etc; it will require extensive patching of the in-game files, replacing the lines. Unfortunately even if the 'swap to Garrick' is installed last I can only replace "Imoen" to "Garrick" in other mods, but not the pronouns and the 'sister/brother' thing etc. Link to comment

Alternatively Imoen could be substituted by another female NPC. Anybody who's not that goddamn annoying. Link to comment
Domi Posted November 23, 2005 Author Share Posted November 23, 2005 Too much bother for BG2.... Link to comment
Borsook Posted November 23, 2005 Share Posted November 23, 2005 Too much bother for BG2.... <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Well, there's really not much point in doing that in BG1... maybe "mature Imoen" mod or something... one can dream. Link to comment
Domi Posted November 23, 2005 Author Share Posted November 23, 2005 Nah, I think, I have better ideas for how creatively waste my time for my life after Kivan, even if IWD2 won't work out. Link to comment
