Okay, so I am in chapter 3 and working for the Shadow Thieves.
I've gone to the graveyard, descended into the dungeons and slain everything undead and 8-legged I can lay my hands on.
I stake the 'final' vampire and Bodhi appears...
She does the whole "mwuh ahahah" Bond Villain bit and we begin clobbering one another...

So far so good.
My Question is though - Am I meant to kill her in this fight? I've piled on practically every trick I can think of and she still manages to flee rather than get minced.

Is this 'doable' or is her escape 'plot'?

My Party is : Me (Paladin), Minsc, Anomen, Jaheira, Aeria and Nalia.

Don't worry mate, she is meant to get away. You kill her much later on but she is tonnes harder to kill. You get another chance between these two encounters though but something cool happens, but I wont give it away cuz that would ruin some of the plot!

Oh and welcome to Ironworks. It really kicks here. Sir Exxon is a really nice guy, but so is everyone!
