Who's Xan? And where is he located? According to infinity explorer he's an elven mage NPC, but I've never met him in any of my previous games? Does it have something to do with the Valen mod I have currently installed?

Xan is a depressing mage NPC from BG1. He makes an appearance in the tutorial for BG2.

As andrewas says, he's only found in BG1. (Unless you play the tutorial, apparently). He's an enchanter mage, which really limited his spells (no invocation/evocation!!) so no great loss about not having him in BG2. I'm glad the one pure mage they allowed to cross over was Edwin, although I would have liked to have kept Dynaheir all the way through BG2 and ToB. Oh well...

Furthermore he wasn't exactly a fun guy to have around (e.g. "We're all doomed!"). Btw, his name is mentioned in IWD as well.

Xan is cool. He's the cousin of an elf adventurere who's dead in dragon's Eye.(IWD)

Excellent point of trivia, Rimjaw!
![]() Just as an interesting point: since IWD takes place about 150 years before the "Time of Troubles", Xan has already been around quite a long time when BG1 takes place. -Saz

[I only know the name Xan as the boss in Unreal Tournament - god I hate that name, it took me almost a month to finally out-frag that guy, I was shaking afterwards too]
