I was looking up the character bios at PlanetBaldur'sGate and studied the NPC portraits a little more closely. Everyone knows how, erm, unattractive the Coran portrait is. I took a look at the ears of this portrait. Coran is listed as an elf, and has the elven avatar. Elves have pointy ears. The avatar has pointy ears (if you look closely). The portrait doesn't have pointy ears.

I thought that was just another facet of his appearance until I brought up Montaron's bio and portrait. Ol' Monty's listed as a halfling, has the halfling avatar, yet his portrait has pointy ears. AFAIK, halflings don't have pointy ears.

Hmm.

Could it be that Coran's portrait and Monty's portrait were switched? I switched around the names in my Portraits file so Coran would get Monty's portrait and vice versa, and I honestly thought it looked better. I think the voices match up pretty well, too.
