I think it's so funny that you hate her so much and love Minsc. I am the exact opposite (god, I hate his sound set. I'd rather clean the cat box with my eyebrows than listen to him yell "butt kicking for goodness!"). Characters like these are love/hate, I think. It's probably her sound set that offends the mostly male demographics that play CRPGs. [img]graemlins/bunny.gif[/img]

I wonder... if Shar's stats were transposed to a male NPC of good alignment, would she still be so unpopular? What do you think?

On a side note, I was hoping that having Safana and Shar in the same party would lead to them bickering since they have very opposite opinions about men. What a bummer [img]graemlins/bunny.gif[/img] they didn't put something like that in. I'd have liked to have seen them turn purple and have a big argument. That would have been so much fun!

I never take it personally when Shar-Teel gets on her 'Woman's Lib' soapbox, I figure she only refers to the men in BG1/TOTSC. From looking at the dialog in the BG Guide (by Dan Simpson) it appears that Shar-Teel hates Eldoth's attitude and they could even start fighting.

I had the 2 of them in my party for a short time but nothing happened, then I had to split them up because I needed Yeslick for my role-playing goal. Has anyone had these two fight it out- Katherine how about you? The dialog between them looks really good.

No, I walked them around the realms waiting for the fight, but it never came. I was disappointed. Quayle was leading the party, too, so it definitely wasn't due to the party leader being too charismatic.

I think I'm about done with playing solo games with BG, though, so I don't think I'll ever get to see that fight.
