Ok, i've just brushed off the dust of BG2 again, and had another idea for a party.It's based on members from bands i like,and i cant decide on a few things.Heres what i have so far


Shagrath(Dimmu Borgir)
Chaotic evil Cleric

Tarja Turunen(Nightwish)
Bard of some sort,probably blade-alighnment unknown

Russell Allen(Symphony X)
Paladin,possably Inquisitor

Herman Li(Dragonforce)
Theif,bounty hunter?

Felipe Andreoli(Angra)
Ranger or Ranger/Cleric

Ok, i was thinking who to make the bhaalspawn and thaught probably Tarja.I was wondering wether to take a 6th person, or just leave it with those 5.Please don't anyone suggest anyone from metallica, i've gone off them ...hugley.

I thaught about a mage,Couldnt think of anyone to fit the role.And what do you mean expect extreme difficulty.I rarley take a mage with me, and i still do perfectly fine.Most of the setups i use makes a mage almost useless-Too much fumbling around with spells, and by the time you cats the enemys are all dead anyway.

Your idea of transposing celebrity personalities into the fantasy world is very creative. You can take some elements of their Real Life versions, via portraits and soundsets, and also incorporate or translate elements from the game world, blending to create a playable PC.

I suggest you take sound-samples of the bands... even better, quotes from interviews if you can obtain audio files of radio/tv appearances from the celebs. Follow the guide here to splice your sound samples into a complete BG2 soundset for each character:

Hmm, can't really think of anyone, then. [img]tongue.gif[/img] Actually I dont know who any of those people are! *shrugs*
Anyways, adding something relevant, when I was searching for portraits for BG2, before, I found some places that did celebrity portraits, you should do a search for that.
