Yoshimo Mod - Suggestions

[Daniel]

Well seeing as I have just finnished college and have lots of spare time on my hands I thought that I would finally start working on my site again. I was thinking about some of the games main problems and one of the major ones is the selection of NPC's, you just dont have much of a selection when it comes to NPC Classes. Firstly their is only one straight class thief in the whole game, Yoshimo and you lose him half way through the game. There is only 1 straight class mage, Edwin but he isn't the most suitable choice for a good aligned party. And the game also lacks all of the new classes, barbarian, sorceror and monk.

So for the sites first mod I was thinking of creating a new NPC and then thought of Yoshimo he is definatly a popular character, and many players were saddened to see him leave, I have also noticed an increased intrest in Yoshimo over IW over the last few days, with people wanting a way to keep him.

Well anyway back to the point what do you guys think? Yoshimo or a brand spanking new character? adding one of the BG1 NPC's is another possibility I have been thinking about as well, but I might leave that for a second mod if this one go's as planed.

Well enough of my babaling now leave a post and let me know what you think also let me know of any suggestions you may have, any input would be appreciated.

Why don't you introduce a new character (possibly a monk or sorcerer) and also bring in Yoshimo....or even better, Yoshimos long lost twin

[Shadowfax]

I think you should introduce a monk. ^_^

How about a raving lunatic? Like a Chaotic Neutral Jester... ...

I was thinking of a hallucinogenic theme.

Well, in Shadowkeeper, there is a Geas Removal Scroll, but it's unusable.

So you have two options:

1. Find a way to make the scroll work, the priest at any Ilmater temple will charge you with finding the scroll, and you get to ressurect Yoshimo afterwards.

2. Bring in his twin brother, or sister, and they'll join you for revenge against Irenicus.

If you need some help in writing a dialogue script (As in a writer) I'm willing to help...

Yes the Geas scroll is an item from BG1 you use it to free Lothander of his Geas

If you are willing to help then I won't refuse, If I was going to have any problem in the whole of this little project then it was going to be the dialogue, It is definatly not my strong point.

Anyway I have to go now, thanks for the offer its greatly apprieciated

I'm also pretty sure that I can tell you if it's in-character or not. (Depending on what you choose to do for a mod)
