I love getting ambushed by slavers... all the free scrolls I can use up... that short sword is good, too, since short-sword-wielders are my usual decoys (see tactics thread).

I have to admit I never even noticed the temple in the Promenade, have to check that out... but I always thought it was hilarious, exactly the kind of thing that OUGHT to pop up in a real game...

I for one think you should be extremely wary regarding scimtars to the head, or indeed any attacks to the head--what would you do if Aerie started talking like Minsc?

Very true point. It happened once that I just had the fight with the Githyanki in the Slums District and I was out of healing spells, and decided to go to the temple there in order to heal Imoen who was indeed down to 1 hp. When I entered the temple, she got hit by that nutcase and Imoen died. And, even worse, her equipment was no where to be found either, so I had to reload from an earlier savegame and fight the battle with the Githyanki a second time. Annoying.

I gotta admit, this is the funniest thread I've read in a long time - but I will put the various morals learned here to use, avoiding walking about with 1 hp and flying scimitars

I also had a bad experiance with that guy, I had just fought a rather nasty battle, cleansing Athcatla of the E-ville cowled wizzards, I had just raised Minsc from his previously chunky existance, to his pre-previous non-chunky existance, not paying for healing in the temple, because Sir Anomen, and Aerie are much cheaper than the temple, when all of a sudden, he takes 20 gp to the head, as if he hasn't had enough head wounds, but anyway i got to pay 1600gp to raise him twice because of that !(*@&&^@#%@&^#
