Sorry if this has been asked elsewhere (I'm sure it has), but the search function didn't seem to be working ... got no results after 5 minutes, so I decided to post.

I've basically completed most of the sub-quests in BG2, and am about to head off to the elven city. But before I go I want to complete the Jaheira / Harper sub-quest, but it just doesn't seem to be happening. Maybe I missed a trigger of some sort?

Anyway, I already had a run-in with Raviene (had to fight her), and a while back Dermin the Harper showed up once and Jaheira renounced the harpers and he left to talk to his superiors or something. I read in the faq that he is supposed to come back and threaten us, and then Jaheira leaves when you rest next, but this dumbass Dermin isn't coming back, seemingly! I rested about 30-40 times at Waukeens Promenade, then moved around the city (docks, bridge, gates), and I never saw Dermin's stinking hide.

This is really all thats holding me back from finishing BG2 and going on to ToB, so any help would be much appreciated. Thanks

I did read somewhere that sleeping wasn't enough. You (apparently) need to be active for 30 min's game time doing something but I don't know the complete truth of it. Have you bought Jaheira the "Keepsake Locket" from the Docks?

I have the keepsake locket.. I hope I don't have to be wearing it, though, thats going too far.

I wouldn't mind waiting around in 'game-time' if I had more quests to do, but basically the only ones left are the character-specific ones (for characters not in the party), and I don't want to have to track down Mazzy or Cernd, Anomen and mess about with them.....

Hmmm, well for me Dermin showed up when I had gotten out of the Underdark and was at the first map you travel to from the Underdark exit. I doubt the keepsake locket has anything to do with it but it does add 'awww' stuff to the romance part. All I can say that would help to travel out of the city and try resting out in the countryside. Umar Hills or Waterdeep...(whatever its called, heh). A lot of thing dealing with Jaheira take place out in the country as opposed to the city I have noticed. If this doesn't work grab the fix for that takes care of issues dealing with Jaheira's Harper Hold plot. I have lost the link to the webpage that has the zip file, so if anyone out there knows the link by all means post it. I hope this helps...as you probably know much of this already.

Apparently the "fixes" for the Jaheira bugs lead to future problems with ToB, particularly the Baldurdash ones. I can't swear to this, perhaps someone else knows for sure. I can post you a link to a massive FAQ/Walkthrough that covers Jaheira and the times etc etc that things are meant to happen. Post again if you want it.

Minor spoiler (perhaps?)

Well, I can´t actually tell if this is related to the topic, but I have some
problems with Jaheira as well. I have finished BG2 4 times and is on my fifth character and have decided to play with him in TOB, that I will buy tomorrow.
But before I finish the game I want to finish the romance with Jaheira ( I have completed the other girls, I want to see how it continues in TOB), anyways, I have speeded it up a little bit by using CluaConsole. I have also gotten a complete dialouge from GameFaqs. But now she won´t say what she is supposed to say! She should say "what a fina dawn" or something (and yes, I have waited from 23 hrs till 7 hrs. nothing) but she doesn´t. Instead, just now, she said a dialouge that i allready had spoken with her! Anyone got any ideas what might be wrong and how I should fix this?
Greatful for answers/
Zayron- gone reeking mad after the final battle

Mellagar: Dermin HAS already showed up once, but he is supposed to come back and issue another ultimatum according to the faq.

Cavern Sniffer: if it is different from the huge DSimpson FAQ from Gamefaqs, please post a link. This is a wee bit frustrating.
