That's true. I hadn't really considered that.

By the way, most people think that gaining influence with Shandra Jerro is a lost cause but it's not. At some point in your conversation with AJ, you get an influence transfer from SJ to AJ, after a fashion. NOt sure about the details but I think its a 10 point jump for AJ IF your influence with SJ was high.

And yes... its when you have to go and find him because he disappears from Crossroad Keep. That sage guy has something to say, but Ammon is nowhere in sight. Turns out (after you set Bishop loose like the dog he is - set a dog to catch one?) - he's out Shandra's farm. You just keep arguing with him and say "Don't you feel anything" line of questioning; he turns around and says "Did you really know her" - and then if you use the influence check you had with Shandra (succesfully), he admits that you did know her, and then you can get him to feel remorse... and you get that huge influence jump. I thought it was one of the more touching moments in the game.
I hope if there is a sequel, you'll have the chance to ressurect Shandra. [/QUOTE]I don't usually get too attached to NPC's - god knows I didn't in BG1, BG2 (okay except for Imoen), NWN1/SoU/HotU (again except for Deekin - who I adored). But for some reason in NWN2, I actually found myself with some pretty strong emtion about the NPCs (okay at least strong in terms of this being a game - lol). And they weren't just all oh he sucks, she's a wuss, he's worthless. e.g. Bishop is not a wuss by any means, but I totally despise the man. I can't recall a game that got me that riled up about a character.
in fairness, the gith Zhaejve, is just major league drab. Her dialogue should be used as a cure for insomnia. zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz oh sorry ... dozed off there.
As for AJ, do we get a chance to break the portrait we had made of SJ over AJ's head? Or at least make him hang it up in his room so he has to stare at it? forever?
