Who would you say your favorite character from Baludr's Gate 2 is? Mine would have to be Korgan, he was the man, and how he would make fun of and start dialogue with the good-aligned characters in your party, hilarious.
Mod Edit: Shifted to a more appropriate shelf. |

Dagnirion is correct. Though, this particular word has become so common here in Australia as to enter into the "public slang" -- to the point where it has lost much of its derogatory meaning.

-Apparently so. I am thinking it is the term used more so in the U.K., South Africa, and Australia, than in the U.S. and Canada, that rhymes with 'Hanker', and has a 'W' at the beginning, that is a bad word. |

I'd have to agree on Minsc & Boo...
"Minsc will lead with blade and boot! Boo will take care of the details."
"The bigger they are, the harder I hit!"
"Jump on my sword while you can evil, I won't be as gentle!"
"Ooo, squirrels, Boo! I know I saw them! Quick, throw nuts!"
"Fear not! I will inspire you all by charging blindly on!"
"Go for the eyes Boo, GO FOR THE EYES!! RrraaaAAGHGHH!!!"
"Boo must have his exercise, let's he bite us all in hard to reach places"
He's my favorite DnD game character. Well...with the exception of Morte ofcourse from the Planescape: Torment game  . |

I'm going to guess that it's either Jhusdhui the Cleric or Enhifhupwq the Thief. 
Five points to anyone who knows where those names came from! |

Oh definitely!
I enjoyed it immensely the first two times I played it--I just couldn't manage more than 10 hours or so of free time. Probably won't be any different this time around, but hey.

Sorry Erik. I myself got tempted to go through it another time over the summer (t'was my 4th or 5th time through the whole game). I think the game is/will be a timeless classic. |

Man, I like this game.

I also recommend it. |

Playing the good guy through throne of Bhaal was not pleasing too me come ending time, but thats a personal issue I had. Being bad was pleasant though :D
... why is it always pleasant to be the bad guy? |

Kali drools if you scratch her just right, and she's the only one of our three cats that willingly lets you scratch her belly. Oreo scratches anyone trying to scratch his belly, and Umi bites your hand and twists away. |

He's mad at you if you named you character Drizzt or if you have some of his gear (taken via cheat or by importing your BG1 file after having killed and looted him). Beside that, he's with Bruenor, Cattie-Brie and Regis and they are looking for Aegis fang, which they lost somehow. He will team up with you (not in the party) in your attempt to kill Bodhi. Nice cameo, better than Jarlaxle's in the drow city. Artemis Entreri was also supposed be allied with Bodhi if you accepted Drizzt help, but he was removed before the release for some reason. He can be summoned (and killed of course) with another cheat. |

Basically a super hero who deals lots of those hits where you blow up in many pieces and can't be ressurected (which is great when he teams up briefly with you in both games but can be frustrating if you're out to kill him  ) |

Ironically, I wasn't the biggest Edwin fan--not that I didn't like him, I was just nonplussed.
Probably actually would have liked him more (from an RP perspective) if he was another romance choices aside from Amonen(sp!)--would have worked out for my first BGII character (a female CN elf rogue, ahem!).
Here's a story about my second and longer-running BGII character, who was a paladin . . . and though all three of the potential love interests were in my party, I decided it worked fine, because he was a SUNITE paladin. 
First off, he (as a LG character) was naturally drawn to Aerie, though as noted in a previous post, he made a slight mistake with her romantic path (whoops!). The second part of this story is that soon after she sort of "broke-up" with my PC, Aerie got into a fight with Viconia, who totally wiped the floor with her.
(Neat how interparty conflicts can come to blows at times, and the bad guys almost always win!  )

Dogs are stupid because:
Dogs will love you even if you beat them
Dogs will eat anything when hungry, even their s**t
Dogs smell bad.. ok that doesn't make them stupid
Ok, now I think we are off-topic
