AFAIK, his only role in the BG-series is to give you hints, etc. He has no major role at all, he is simply included because he is a famous Faerūn character.
He will also pop up various places throughout the game, doing something besides giving hints. ![]() |

I beleive in 3rd edition rules, Elminster goes as follows;
1 lv fighter, 2 or 3 lv's of theif (can't remember), somewhere around 29 lv mage, and 4 lv's of archmage. The Lv's make more sense if you read the books about him, they're pretty good. Anyone out there that know's his stats better than i do???

Elminster was a good friend of Gorion.

I'd guess the put him in for the same reason the put Drizz't in - to give people familiar with the Forgotten Realms setting a sense of "ooooh! cool! I really *am* in the Forgotten Realms!" [img]smile.gif[/img]
In other words, just as a minor way of immersing your character in the story & the lore of the Realms. Incidently, has anyone ever attacked Elminster? I think he force-talks you too quick to do it (those with ToB - at the end of Abizagal's Lair might be a good opportunity?) but I'm not positive. - Imrahil |

if you did it right(ie timestop shapechange(cause it's the fastest way to kill 1 person) you might be able to kill him before he talks to you it'd be interesting to try
