She's the best character in the game. Realistic personality.

Me too!

What? Just the two of us?

Jaheira is a good, strong character, but she's just a bit too much into lecturing people. I still like her, but I wish she'd nag just a little less.

Ok, speaking as a relative Jaheira-liker, there are a LOT of people that hate her on this board, heh. Most of the reasons they dont are practical rather than cosmetic, though, so that's understandable.

I tend to look at her from storyline/personality angle as well. She nags, but she's more vunerable than she looks. She's strong, dynamic, and passionate. I just seem to respond to that.

In terms of practicality, she's my team-buffer. Plus she's at -8AC with 18/00 strengh and a +2 Scimitar, so she can get in the thick of things herself.

i agree, i dig jaheira as an npc.

She rocks! what CAN't she do? i cleared the whole Guardian area in front of Firkrag's with 2 of her fire elementals alone- yes they lasted the whole time, no resting or re-casting. I keep a few nymphs available to crowd- control and mass- heal, she can rez, tank, heal, summon, has a great AC, what else could you want?
It seems a lot of people are into this "romance thing" but as i am a female.. i don't care about that too much.

She just doesn't really fit in with an all good or an all evil party when either is taken to the extreme. I had to turn my sound of because of her complaining about balance(my rep is a 20.). She is a very realistic character at times though

All right, someone is defending a druid!! She's one of my favorites, too plus she's a really good character. Good fighter, good spellcaster (not as good as Cernd though), and her romance is really cool.

Oh dear, you all have my pity. She's a cantankerous old hag full of self righteousness and I ended up creating a second druid PC just so I didn't have to listen to her whining!
