Well, I personally believe that Jaheira was the reason Khalid stuttered so much...jumping down him every time he opened his mouth! I don't know why they (Bioware) didn't kill HER off and then have Khalid be another female romance option in BG2...could have done an interesting one where he eventually loses the stutter and gains a great deal of confidence and self-esteem. Could have still done the Harper's thing, too, since he was a Harper as well. Oh well...I don't makes 'em, I just plays 'em.

BG1 Jahiera would definitely get the axe. As soon as I saw that Branwen, Yeslick, and even Faldorn were better than her, I dropped her like a rock and haven't been annoyed by her since, except her infernal "Our Rep is very high" in BG2.

Anomen is actually worth his place in the party. His arrogance is tolerable if you smack him down and have Jan tell his Ano the Dung Orc story. What I hate MOST about him, though, is HIS "Our Rep is very high" speech. I actually turned into the Slayer twice, just to get him to shut the hell up--something that not even Jaheira ever forced me to do.

He shouldn't give you that if he turns to LG...unless you turned him CN?

Anomen can be very annoying, but he is one of the best clerics in the game. I accidently let Vic the drow one get burned (hehe accident) so i kept him in my party. Althought, i would like to take him out [img]smile.gif[/img]

Well in all honesty I always enjoyed having Jaheira with the group in BGI and BGII as well. As for Anomen, heh, he's almost the comic relief in the group. In ToB Minsc asks him if he could join the Order of the Radiant Heart, along with Boo of course. In all respects I wouldn't drop, whack, hack, burn, incenerate, imprison, or melt Anomen and certainly not Jaheira. Both add a bit of character and life to the game.
On a side note, for people who dislike them so much...good lord, I hear them mentioned quite a lot. heh

However Jaheira's line "I've just about seen enough waking hours SLAVE DRIVER" was really good!

The appropriate response? Kill her, then resurrect her! Tada! Instant fatigue relief! [img]tongue.gif[/img]

I have not yet experience the full extent of BG1 Jaheira, but in BG2, I despise Jaheira much more than Anomen. In fact... I kinda like Anomen. You just need to have Keldorn in your party and help Anomen get his knighthood. This will change Anomen's attitude by leaps and bounds, pity his default dialogues do not change.

I can accept Anomen, because I know I can change him. Jaheira? Even in a romance, she does not trust you... Since that is the case, I slowly hurl Melf's Minute Meteors at her when she is still in her cage and shoot a few Melf's Acid Arrows... ...
