From what I remember, the general consensus was that most of the fan-generated stories were far superior to those published versions.
BTW - I believe the published versions had the PC as a plain fighter.

Sadly yes. BG 1 and BG II written by Philip Athans which are awful. And ToB written by Drew Karpyshan (Sp?) which is also awful. The protagonist in which is the ever-unimaginitive Abdel (See TotSC Mission-pack). I'd advise to give them a read simply because it will make you want to rant about them. see what you think.

I don't believe Imoen is featured. Khalid dies and Jaheira and Abdel have their way with one another. Xan dies. Xzar and Montaron die. Not many other characters featured.
