I am finding the tweaked half orc fighter-thief (tweaked to remove the dual wield proficiencies and put them in crossbow--as if he actually uses it) is pretty damn frightening. For some reason he has a base AC of 4 instead of 6 (a racial thing?) and that leaves him with a -6 with pretty mediocre leather (the shadow thieves quest) and -10 with mediocre +1 full plate. He also has a -1 THACO as a level 9 fighter. Scary stuff. I decided to keep Nalia instead of put Imoen in the party, so it's Geedubya, the three evils, Jaheria and Nalia, Nalia getting ragged on constantly. And there's still romances going on too, perhaps his inteligence is high enough or something...
