Either it's just me, and I'm crazy, or some of the portraits almost look like celebrities.

Nalia looks like Drew Barrymore.

Aerie looks like a young Michelle Pheifer.

Jaheira almost looks like Lucy Lawless, just a bit skinner...

Mazzy looks like that Irish woman Hercules fell for in Hercules: The Legenday Journeys.

Minsc almost looks like Chekov from Star Trek, with a shaved head. His accent almost sounds Russian too.

Anyone else notice any of the other NPC's looking like celebrities?

Good! At least I know I am not the only one who is out of his mind here!
Here is another one although a little far fetched.
Look closely at Yoshimo.And then compare him to Lee Van Cliff(sp?).You know the guy who played at western type films along with clint eastwood,such as the good the bad and the ugly...

With the danger of beeing labeled "clueless"
might I ask who is Lucy Lawless?

Lucy Lawless plays Xena in Xena: Warrior Princess.

More like Young Lucy Lawless when she played in the first Hercules Movie, that or I am going crazy...

I was going to say J-Lo at one time, lol!
