Weird things I've noticed

enigma · 02-07-2002, 06:34 PM

1) When NPC's are talking and mention the god Helm, in the dialogue window it's displayed as "Torm", but Keldorn's critical hit line is, "By Torm I will strike you down!" That reaaallllllyy confused me. Which one is it!?

2) In Minsc's portrait, he's bald- but his paper doll has white hair...

3) When/If Anomen is knighted, his name changes to "Sir Anomen"- but Keldorn is a knight aswell- but his name is just Keldorn, nor "Sir" Keldorn.

I haven't lost any sleep over this stuff yet- but it's bothering the heck outta me...

1)Most likely the vocal actors' scripts had "Helm" written on them during sessions in the recording studio. This however, raises a point that does irk me--Helm is a neutral god and thus may not have paladins who serve him, at least according to the strict definitions of paladins under 2nd edition rules. Torm (duty, obedience) is a lawful good god and may have paladins. I have always liked Torm (the only deity who was killed then resurrected and re-established by Lord Ao after the Time of Troubles); I had a cleric of Torm as one of my two main characters for a number of years in the old days of pencil-and-paper. I digress....

2)That is Minsc's picture from his driver's license; it was taken several months ago.

3)Keldorn is, among his other virtues, modest. He doesn't need the honorific "Sir", even though it would be appropriate to refer to him thusly.

Dont worry about it mate. There are tonnes of them. I cant list em all but they happen quite frequently.

One of the good reasons they call out to torm, is that torm is only a minor deity. Due to this he realy pays attention to anyone calling his name, (wearing a symbol of torm in D&D and not realy worshiping him, realy does hurt)

That is just added to increase Anomen's already inflated ego, and to make him even more annoying.

He does actually tone down a bit after attaining knighthood. Apologizing for his rudeness and all.

You'll notice that no one in the Order ever states that they like Anomen, but they do have to tolerate his presence, given his social status.

You seem like you slightly dislike Anomen just a little bit, Galadria.
