Sorry, Minsc is still my most hated NPC. He was damned annoying in BG1 as soon as I did the Dynaheir quest, I dropped his sorry but.

Imagine my disgust at actually having to save his arse!!! Wonder what Minscina is doing....(mmm girlde of Gender.....)

"I am pleased at how far this ill-concieved group as come. I would not have thought it possible." -the Lawful Good Anomen, believing that our 20 Rep was entirely due to him

"I hope this is not a sign of things to come. We must strive to maintain balance." -Jaheira, getting irritated that we've had so much success in fighting the very things she encouraged us to fight

Which is worse? Aaaaargh, I wish the Silence 15' Radius spell worked to silence their *.WAV files as well......

Oh, I can feel everyone's pain! And to think it really is psychological. There is no way the human race is ready for Star Trek's holodeck.

Hmmm, well Jaheira was very indendant, headstrong, opinionated, said exactly what she felt and meant, had an ego the size of Russia and sure, Khalid was a rather weak willed man so she ran roughshod over him. My brief definition above is an overly simplified but fairly accurate representation of what successful, powerful men are often like throughout history. Today, Jaheira would probably be what would be described as a strong woman who has broken the shackles of a so called superior male mentality. I personally like a strong woman and it seems I am one of the few who always like having Jaheira around. [img]smile.gif[/img] Even with the romances in BG2 we had 3 classes of women. Aerie, the young, whining, almost child. Vic, the haughty, naughty, wicked city woman that can be soooo attractive and alluring. And Jaheira who is a better representation of what a more mature relationship would be like.

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
I have to agree with you there. Every character may have their 'annoying' points, but that's what makes them seem more alive.

I don't want a character that's so loveable that I could never get a little annoyed by them.

hmm.... as a NG elven ranger... in all honesty, I could never blast Jaheria, even the one in BG1, after all, she IS supposed to be 'my' guardian after all.... Anomen can go strait to hell, wiht pleasure... or maybe not... leave him in the pocket plane... when you leave it for the last time would be unishment enough... oh yes, I *HATE* Anomen...

Anomen. Definitely Anomen.

Jaheira was annoying in BG I, but she can't come close to Anomen. At least she has a decent voice. But Anomen? AHHHH!!! That "What is it NOW?" especially grates on my nerves.
