i know that in my second edition handbook, characters with exceptionally high wisdom (19 and higher) gained immunity to certain spells, such as charm and command.
now, does anyone know if this has been implemented in BGII ?

It's stated in the back of the manual as "Magic Defence Modifier", with a WIS of 18 supposedly granting a +4 to your saves against mental spells.

*however*

This was never actually implemented in the game. I tested it and WIS makes no difference whatsoever.

Similarily, high intelligence *should* give immunity to illusion spells.

This was also not implemented

The Constitution parameter actually is implemented.

It does not provides any sort of resistances, but bonus to saving throws, instead. It only applies to Halflings, Dwarves and Gnomes, though.
