Nerull, you called Rogue_at_Heart a newbie when he specifically stated otherwise. [img]tongue.gif[/img]

Oh well, even if he's not a newbie to RPGs, at least he's a newbie to BG and to this forum, which is why we welcome him!

And now I take this moment to get up on my Guru Soapbox and proclaim that NPC Paladins and Rangers actually cannot become Fallen, the game only applies that change to the PC if Reputation drops too low.

About starting over: If I were in your shoes, I would not. Many times I have wished to have my memory of the game erased so I could start fresh--it gets to be a bit of a drudge when you've memorized the locations of all the Traps, and with game knowledge like that, the roleplay suffers accordingly. I say keep going, be true to your character, and learn from your mistakes.

A word of warning: Chapter 5 takes place in a large area that has NO TEMPLES. Got that? Equip yourself accordingly--you don't want to be stuck in a situation where you're stuck with a Dead or Level Drained party member for any length of time.
