As already mentioned above, you can create all the characters in your party by starting a multiplayer game on your own computer. The only disadvantage is that you might end up with a party that is too strong, if you take the time to roll realy good scores on them all. Also, you have to go through the extra step of selecting/confirming each party member again every time you load a multiplayer game. You can copy the game to the single player directory as SookmaCook mentioned and avoid that hassle; just be sure the caharacter you want as your main character is in the first slot before copying to the single player folder. One other advantage to multiplayer, at least in
BG I, is that you can pause the game and still get into the inventory, without the game restarting.
