Here is your chance to stick up for a class, NPC, weapon, whatever, that you feel has been unfairly ridiculed. Think of it as the Revenge of the Nerds, but bards and bastard swords.
As for myself, I'd like to stick up for Cernd. Every post that I read about him is bashing him, and out of curiosity, I put him in my group. Well, I'm glad I did. He's got the highest Wisdom in the game, and can eventually cast Level 7 spells. Also, I really thought the Greater Werewolf was useful. It regenerates, has 4 attacks around, and Strength, Desterity and Constitution all above 20. Makes a very good back up tank. So, ladies and gnomes, here is your chance to defend whatever you want. Except for Nalia and Anomen. (J/K) |

I stick up for Nalia. I personally don't find her annoying. She may be a lousy thief, but you shouldn't need to rely on her as a thief anyways. She has the same stat total as Imoen (87), IIRC. She has her Signet ring (+2AC, +2 saving throws, 50% fire resist) and can still use other rings/cloaks/amulets of protection. If I play a good party, Nalia is always in it.

I'd like to stick up for Aerie myself who usually comes in for a lot of flak.
She is a good mage, best used in backup to a specialist mage and a good cleric too. A great utility character to help balance out a team. |

I liked Anomen, especially after his quest was successfully completed and he became a Knight. Good spell casting, great on golems, and kick a mace ... slings too.

I'd like to stick up for Irenicus. I mean, exiled from his homeland? Removed from Elvenkind? I guess most humans just wouldn't understand. Plus he has those little pointy things sticking out of his head- that's just got to make you grumpy anyway, so give the guy a break!
Oh, and while I'm at it, I'd like to defend Shadowkeeper, the greatest program of this generation, next to it's little complement program, BGII. Don't knock it if you haven't tried it! OOH, the POWER! |

Haer Daelis. Yeah, he was a shitty fighter, a shitty spellcaster, a shitty pick pocket, a shitty tank...well, actually, pretty bad at everything. But he had some pretty cool blue hair, and he DID take Aerie off your hands. I am indebted to him for that.

ill stick up for Aerie for now, and the WS later. Aerie is a great cleric and mage, and with the right items she can be a good melee too. and she has a good romance, for me at least. makes you feel importiant

I stick up for Irenicus, (I would have personally trashed Suldenesselar),
Anomen, (he hardly whines and is a great npc), Nalia, she also is a good npc. She is not very annoying, exept if you refuse to empty the castle -she keeps bothering you in the coronet. She may have a few bad lines, but if you're looking for annoying voice, whining and irritating personality, look no further than Aerie. |

Oh yeah, and Cernd. He is brilliant. Even the werewolf form is good. He is not as good as my pc werewolf, but compared to other npcs he is great.
