You know the intro for chapter 2 (after you first talk to Galen Bayle)?
When it pauses the game and goes into voice-over + scrolling text mode.
Well you know the stained glass effect picture ?
I've always though it looks exactly like Christopher Lambert (the guy from Highlander) or whatever his name is.

Well, it never really struck me myself, but it could be possible; several characters in the game look like they've been based on celebrities (Nalia looks a bit like Drew Barrymore, Irenicus looks a bit like Arnold Schwarzenegger, *especially* when you see the final in-game movie, that is.

Nalia definitly doesnt look like drew barrymore

Well, one can always disagree, but when the game was originally created, Barrymore actually had a similar haircut while the facial expressions weren't that much different either, nor is the voice that much different. Back on BGDungeon many people recognized celebrities in the NPC-portraits, and Barrymore was actually the most mentioned celebrity in Nalia's case. ;)
For a comparison... See here. [img]smile.gif[/img]
Also see this older topic. ;)

hey I see what you mean with nalia and drew barrymore, although (from the site you posted) I dont see seravok looking anything like arnie, or viconia looking like angelina.

some other comparisons though, I always thought Minsc looks a bit like Billy Zane (in the mouth and eyes), Hear'Dalis looks like River Phoenix, and I'm sure there are others that I can't remember at the moment. Some of the other character portraits look like some celebrities too

I agree about the last two; the site isn't mine, of course. But where did you find the comparison between Sarevok and Arnie? It's not on that site... :confused:

no sorry, that's my mistake. you mentioned arnie in an earlier post, but it was in comparison to Irenicus (although I'm not sure I see that one either).
Seravok is on the web-site, but with no comparison.

Jeez...someone else thinks Nalia looks like Drew Barrymore.
I've thought that since the first time I saw her.
Another one...you guys probably won't agree but I think Viconia looks a little like Sarah Michelle Gellar.
If you look at the picture in the character screen it doesn't really, but if you're in the main game mode and look at the little picture on the right, it kind of does look like her IMO.
