The drow does indeed start with a D. Nice to know he is the forgiving sort. I know that the Drow have a reward on him and it would be a super cool evil side-quest if it was somehow incorporated in the game. However I am NG for now so I will not attack him this time. Furthermore he is far more friendly and enjoyable in BG2.

Valygar is out of luck if I decide to take "solo" to the letter. So far I have only had a companion the 10 seconds it took to boot out Imoen. Not having her poor voice act through Casa de Irenicus was SO NICE.

Gesen Bow. Noted. Worthwhile since ammo isn't the sort of thing you want to mess up a restricted inventory. Think I have the shaft in the theatre. I seem to remember the string being in spellhold somewhere while I was hunting for tokens to get the "priceless" Jesters Chain. It better be worth it this time.

Equalizer. Never really figured it out. Seems both powerful and worthless at the same time. Regardless I sold the pommel god-knows-where. Prolly at the Mart.

I won't fetch the Dragonsword then. I have not found any Ioun Stones yet, but I fear they might be off limit to Bards. Otherwise they will be worth a trip for sure.
A note here. Fear would not be a problem if it worked like fear. That is you turn around and run away from everything until you are cornered. As it is now "Power Word: Idiot" might be more appropiate, 'cuz the character acts like an utter moron.

The belt. Hhmmm. One of them is used for Crom Faeyr, which is on my shortlist. The other one eludes me, but I think it is in Suldanesselar. As a BG1 character my strength is 19.

Bracers. A 20 second attack burst is definately something I can use at a few places. Especially since it can be combined with defensive spin and offensive spin cannot. Standing my ground with -17 AC and hacking away with 5 att/round will surely come in handy. It's with the Kuo-Toan prince you say. I must have passed this as junk last time and left it.
As for the Weapon Expertise I might need a friendly finger pointing me in the right direction.

Cloak. Mirroring seems nice, but I have to transverse spellhold first. I recollect a Cloak of Displacement in Trademeet, but at a glance it didn't seem too efficient. Parhaps I really should go back there after all.

I have three mods:
Bonus CD merchants
Quicker Intro
Better Looking Robe of Vecna
They are hardly mods at all. I figured I'd try the plain game a few times before I started to mess with it.
I do not have ToB (yet).

I am still in Chapter 2, but I recon I am as ready as can be. I have the Illithium and are ready to blow Bodhi's place apart.
