Well I started a Kensai after being inspired to do so buy a piece of artwork I transformed into a portrait. And this being my first time as a Kensai, I thought he was gonna suck, but the whole idea of killing him before he kills you as opposed to being able to take a beating while you're slowly wearing him down really works. Well my character is a LN Kensai who is a veteran samurai. He was discharged from the military after having discovered some information that could have lead to his superiors being arrested. He has since been stripped of his military issue armour wandering with his sword as his only companion. Up until now of course. I'm basically wondering which NPCs personalities would go good with such a character, the class doesn't matter so much because that can be modified later. As of now I have Jaheira and Yoshimo. Jahs I'm thinking of turning into an Avenger, and Yoshimo I think might get dualed to a Fighter(bow specialty), now that covers melee, ranged, thievery, healing, and pest spells. My big question is do I really need anything more? Like, is arcane magic really that necessary? I'm only asking because I've never played without it. And what do I do when Yoshimo is gone? I hear something happens to him after your return from spellhold and such so I don't wanna be stuck with Imoen as a ranged weapon user. Any ideas on what to do. And if I should make the suggested changes to my existing party? ie: Jaheira-> avenger and yoshimo->dual to fighter(but at what level? thanks a lot

and here's the picture upon which the character is based

I also would like to know if there's a better paper doll out there for a kesnai than the traditional fighter one.
