1. Introduction
----------------

Erevain Blacksheaf is an NPC met in the original Icewind Dale as well as the Never Ending Journey Baldur's Gate 2 mod. This thread is to be used as a repository of notes and outlines for expanding the role of Erevain into a joinable NPC companion.

Erevain can be found in the Snowdrift Inn in

----------------
2. Erevain Original Role
----------------

Erevain's original stats can be found here. Erevain is the only elf in Easthaven and he speaks to you as a traveler who is delaying the Elven retreat to explore more of the world.

Erevain's fate is tragic as he went to Dragon's Eye ahead of the party on his own, trying to save a group of captured villagers but died alone in the attempt. He leaves behind a journal revealing that he was Xan's (NPC companion from BG1) cousin.

----------------
3. Erevain Expanded Role - Intro and Early Exit
----------------

Erevain will have an extra dialogue option upon meeting him that will allow you to recruit him into your party. Either he will be joinable immediately or you will need to wait until you have the quest to find the missing caravans before he will become joinable. If you're rude to him, he will not join you.

When Hrothgar tells you to talk to Pomhab to gather supplies, he will tell you that you can talk to Accalia in addition to speaking to Erevain to join the party. If you were rude to Erevain earlier, he'll give you a second chance to be nice to him and will be willing to join your party for Hrothgar's sake.

If for whatever reason CHARNAME does not recruit and keep Erevain long enough, he will meet his original fate: death inside Dragon's Eye. IF CHARNAME kicks out Erevain before visiting the Dragon's Eye, CHARNAME will have an opportunity to bring back Erevain into the party. If CHARNAME does not immediately bring him back into the party, Erevain will dejectedly head out on his own and will not be re-recruitable. However, after traveling to the Dragon's Eye dungeon, you will be able to kick Erevain out and be able to re-recruit him back in Kuldahar. The justification for this is that Erevain will have participated enough to have redeemed himself (saving captured villagers). More on that later.

Upon traveling inside Dragon's Eye dungeon a couple of checks are made. If Erevain is not in your party and was not removed from the party after Death (dead body on ground), then Erevain's corpse will appear in the Dragon's eye Dungeon with his journal noting his attempts to go it alone. Erevain's corpse will contain whatever items he had with him before his "death". I.e. if the party never talked to him, he'll have his original items on his corpse, if the party recruited him and stole all his items, he'll have a naked corpse except for a journal, and if the party gave him extra items before kicking him out again, his corpse will contain the extra items. Around his corpse should be some remains of Bombadier Beetles. He would have gone down fighting and died, presumably from their poison.

4. Erevain Expanded Role - Expansion Contents
----------------

CHARNAME Dialogues - 5 in BG2. 3 in ToB planned.

NPC Banters - Erevain with have at least 2 banters with every NeJ and Bioware NPC. At least 2 crossmod banters if a Xan NPC BG2 mod is installed. More than 2 banters for some NPCs are possible if inspiration comes. Possible crossmod banters with the Longer Road Irenicus NPC. At some point 1 additional banter at ToB is planned.

Event Banters - Erevain will speak up at all the appropriate events other NPCs are expected to (Travel to Kuldahar, Travel to Dragon's Eye, Tree of Life, Post Melissan, etc.)

Interjections - Interjections at various points as inspiration comes. No preplanned number.

Romance - No planned romance. Erevain might potentially have some interjections hinting at jealousy. Update: 7/9/2015 Romance is possible. Focus is on finishing other dialogues first.

Flirts - The other NeJ NPCs do not have flirts so this is not planned. I might consider a simple dialogue to avoid that annoying message "X has nothing to say to you"

Player Initiated Dialogue - Update: 7/9/2015 - This is a highly desirable feature by several players, so this mod should include it. 5 PIDs for BG2 and 3 PIDs for ToB are planned

Encounters - 3 encounters are planned. These are 2 groups of NPCs hunting Erevain for some misdeed in his past that haunts him

Quests - No quests are currently planned. Traveling to Evereska to visit Erevain's homeland could be fun, but would require a lot detailed artwork and area creation.

Kit - Erevain will come with a custom kit not seen in another mod to date

Item Upgrades - Upgrades to Erevain's Sword and Armor will be available via Conlan's Smithy, Cromwell's, or Cespenar. It is intended that components missed in IWD may become available during BG2 and components missed during BG2 may become available during ToB.

5. Original Erevain Points of Inspiration
----------------

Originally Erevain was an explorer who avoided the Elven retreat twenty years ago to explore the world. He estimates that it will take all the elves a few hundred years to retreat to Evermeet. He plans on eventually joining his brethren there. Erevain does not like the cold and misses the weather of Evereska. He worships Corellon, referring to him in his original dialogue and later journal.

He has some regret in not joining Hrothgar's party because he believes they need protection. He thinks trying to reclaim the old elven lands would lead to darkness and war. He fondly recalls his cousin Xan, but does not want to feel that he's becoming like him (dismal and despairing).

He eventually is found dead within the Dragon's Eye Dungeon, most likely during a rescue attempt of the captured villagers: a reluctant and failed tragic hero.

These inspire us to ask a few questions:

1. Was a desire for travel his only reason he avoided the Retreat? 20 years is a long time, even for elves. Is he avoiding something or someone from his past? Has he purposefully traveled to the elfless inhospitable North to get far away from something? (It is a fair distance from Evereska to the Spine of the World).
2. How did he get into Dragon's Eye mostly undetected?
3. How has a single traveler managed to survive for 20 years so well?

----------------
6. Expansion Outline
----------------

Erevain is the tale of a potentially tragic hero of contradictions. He is cowardly, not offering to help sometimes when he know that he should yet brave (some would say foolhardy), risking life and limb for others in danger. He can be hopeless like his cousin Xan, yet also hopeful. He can be polite yet allow some of that Elven arrogance to set in.

Erevain's journey will be one of a person who while having some good qualities, also harbors some bad ones too (cowardice, rudeness, feeling of racial superiority). Throughout dialogues and his journey Erevain will become more homely, more rounded, more pleasant, and more hopeful. Our somewhat reluctant companion will become a full fledged and devoted friend by its end.

Erevain's backstory will be revealed that he belonged to multiple organizations in Evereska. The Swords, the Greycloaks, and the Vale Guardians of Evereska. In each case he had trouble keeping with each one as none of these organizations made a full use of his talents in Erevain's opinion. Eventually, Erevain found himself in a situation where he was required to defend Evereska from invaders (Orcs? Hobgoblins?). Erevain decided to go invisible to restrike again later. Unfortunately Erevain lost his nerve and instead ran away from battle. As a result several other elves were killed that he may have been able to aid. Erevain was heavily chastised by his superiors and rather than face the shame at home, he abandoned the Swords of Evereska and decided to journey far away, eventually arriving in the town of Easthaven after 20 years.

Erevain may give off some hints of regret, but it won't become clear until the later two encounters happen. In the first encounter a group of Hobgoblin, Goblin, Orc, Half-Orc, Ogrillon, Half-Ogre, and/or Bugbear Mercenaries as well as some undead servants. (decide details later) that will intercept the party in an Area location. The group will be led by Guthic of Shargaas, a Half-Orc Cleric/Assassin of the Orc God of darkness, night, stealth, thieves, and the undead. They will recognize Erevain in the party (or will know by the descriptions of his companions that he should be nearby them). The party members will question why Erevain has a bounty placed on him, but Erevain will refuse to let out much information to the consternation of the other party members. Guthic and his crew of assassins will allow CHARNAME to pay Erevain's bounty in gold. If the party does not have sufficient gold, Guthic will allow CHARNAME to pay him in equivalent value of magic items. If the player cannot or refuses to by an equivalent bounty, then combat begins.

In the second encounter, a band of Elven Warriors led by a captain of the Swords of Evereska will intercept the party. Yalatheniel (their leader), will reveal Erevain's abandonment of duties. Erevain will apologize and have the option of trying to reason with Yalatheniel, but Yalatheniel will not let Erevain be captured or held to trial as that would risk him being pardoned: Erevain must pay for the death of his Elven comrades. This is a tactical battle with Yalatheniel and his minions casting multiple area spells to disable and destroy the party. Yalatheniel is intended to be a high level Fighter/Mage/Cleric with Fighter, Mage, and Cleric companions.

After the battle, it will become more clear to Erevain's companions the remorse over his previous actions. Even though by this time Erevain will have helped saved villagers from Dragon's Eye (and helped others potentially), it's not enough for him to feel redeemed in his heart. However, near the climax of BG2 where the elven city of Suldanessellar is being attacked, his spirit truly shines through. Suddenly all of Erevain's good qualities outshine the bad ones and he's able to redeem himself by helping this Elven city from destruction. Afterwards, a Greycloak will be present at Suldanessellar who will confirm Erevain's heroics. CHARNAME will have an option to say goodbye to Erevain to visit his home and never see him again, or he can press for Erevain to stay and aid him through the quests in Throne of Bhaal.

7. Erevain Starting Mechanical Information
----------------

Commentary: Original Erevain was a Fighter with a custom broadsword weapon. We want to keep that, but also make him worthwhile to pick up as an NPC companion. At the point in time where he'll be picked up, the party may lack or partially lack 1 or two things. A Mage if the player character keeps Imoen as a Charming Rogue or a Thief if the player character converts Imoen to a Mage. As such, our recommendation is for Erevain to be a Fighter/Mage/Thief. This will enable him to fulfill both potentially missing party roles (Mage or Thief) while retaining his original class (Fighter). Why not just a Mage/Thief? Imoen is already basically a Mage Thief with the Charming Rogue Kit and the extra Thac0, weapon proficiencies, and Specialization matter in most routine battles. I don't want to cheat in weapon specialization or extra hp. This will make Erevain useful, but he won't be able to dominate every position within the party: His advancement will be slower, but every level he will gain something sigificant (Figher: more Thac0, Mage: More spells, Thief: More points and 1 new special ability) so he won't be a total drag either. Erevain is intended to wear his Elven Plate Mail +2 for life so that he can fight, cast spells, and use thieving skills at any point desired and not feel that his capabilities are being wasted. Some players do not like triple multiclass characters because of the relatively slower progression (total xp is divided amongst all classes by 3). It's also probably more tolerable to have a slower progression PC than an NPC. To counteract this, Erevain starts with a special family amulet that will boost his experience gain, but at a price. Erevain's sword will need to be changed from a broadsword to a longsword in order to take advantage of backstabbing bonuses. Otherwise it requires modding the allowable thief weapons to backstab which is outside of the scope of this mod.

8. Erevain General Notes
----------------

Infiltrator Kit:

Commentary: Infiltrator is inspired by a kit from the Complete Book of Elves designed for Fighter/Mage/Thieves. The original kit involved bonuses to nonweapon proficiencies, extra non-weapon proficiencies and a special ability to appear as different races. A lot of these aren't valid for Infinity Engine Games or would take an enormous amount of work to implement (appearing as other races). As such the mechanics will be different. In order to make the kit and Erevain NPC competitive, the point of balance taken is from the Charming Rogue Kit. The roleplaying inspiration and justification for this kit was the fact that the original Erevain got into Dragon's Eye past the original guards and crossed over mountains alone. Seemingly, he is able to get into places that others would have trouble getting into.

The infiltrator will gain the ability to cast various spells as special abilities. These spells are inspired by what an "Infiltrator" should be able to do. Some of these supplement or effectively replace Thief abilities (ex. Knock, Invisibility) and this is on purpose. The side effect of these abilities will mean that at level up the Infiltrator will only get 15 thieving points per level. The intention is to get a rotation in order to gain one special ability per level and that the special abilities while useful will not completely overshadow a vanilla thief or alternate Thief Kit via lower points per level.

Events:
Erevain will meet Guthic of Shargaas and then Yalatheniel sometime before completing IWD. Sometime in SoA or ToB, Erevain will meet an Undead Guthic who is more powerful and fight him again. We should consider the possibility of fighting a revenant Yalatheniel in ToB.

Blacksheaf Amulet:
If Erevain dies and the party has his amulet, at some point the party should meet Yalatheniel or some other elf who wants to retrieve the amulet back. They may fight the party if they will not willingly give the item back ala Githyanki. The elves will be "Collectors" from the Complete Book of Elves or some better sounding name organization to return stolen elven artifacts.

Xan may alternatively accept to take the amulet at which point the collectors will not bother the party.

Xan:
Xan will not believe that Erevain is actually alive at first. There will be some initial hostility between them.

Perhaps Yalatheniel was corrupt from the start and that Erevain was meant to believe that he disgraced himself when in reality it was his mentor Yalatheniel who was behind his comrade's killings. Erevain was able to hide and haste away to his safety, but was deeply shamed.


Yalatheniel wants to replace Lord Dursair
Yalatheniel hired Guthic of Shargaas

Should Erevain start out with a Cloak and Boots of Elvenkind designed for him? Perhaps reduce thieving skills to 10 per level?

Assassin within Dragon's Eye aiming for Erevain? Perhaps he should have a scroll on him?

Journey back to Evereska should be dealt with in Epilogues. Romances should follow two paths or at least have two outcomes, one with an Elf <CHARNAME> and another with a non-elf <CHARNAME>. Presumably an elf-elf romance will go better since Erevain is cut from traditional elf outlooks. However, will the fact that Bhaal being a human turned god have an effect on the Elven purity of the elf-elf romance?

Mod should eventually be converted to IWD, IWD in BG2, IWDEE, and BG2EE.

If kicked out too early or never taken, Erevain should leave a corpse in Dragon's Eye. The PC should be free to grab the corpse and cast raise dead / resurrection on it and return Erevain from the dead and have the opportunity to have a dialogue option show up at the bottom when visiting a Priest and pay gold to return Erevain from the dead as well.

In BG2, in the Athkatla graveyard, there should be a caravan or an elven mourner who has Erevain Blacksheaf's bones. The bones would be available immediately or they would have to complete a quest or encounter to get it. After doing so, the player could cast ressurection (not raise dead) or have a dialogue option pop up for a priest in order to pay gold to resurrect Erevain.

The dialogue and undead state of Guthic and Yalatheniel will differ depending on whether Erevain was acquired during IWD or BG2 and whether or not they died in the previous battle with CHARNAME and Erevain. Guthic and Yalatheniel should attack the party if they hold Erevain's body. They want it. Their dialogue with the party should be similarly affected.

Erevain's sword should have multiple upgrades. With a Scroll of Improved Haste, the Sword should become +4 and of Speed (+1 APR). Other options could be of Translocation? (cast Dimension door) Phasing? (Etherealness?) Acidic (acid damage?). By ToB Erevain should be able to add 2 upgrades of choice for an Speed Acidic Sword or something. Perhaps this is too complicated, and we insist that it's one or the other and eventually both. First upgrade makes sword = +4. Second upgrade makes sword = +5

Erevain: Imoen, why are you always so cheerful?
Imoen: Well I am most of the time. What's there not to be cheerful about? Birds, music, pages of books that never seem to crease correctly ever again.
Erevain: You warm my heart child. I wish I could remain as spirited as you Imoen.
Imoen: Hey buster, I'm older than you given all of my troubles and torture. What reason do you have to be so cold?
Erevain: I...
Imoen: Yes?
Erevain: ...I cannot answer
Imoen: Sure ya can. Just spit it out already!
Erevain: No, I'm sorry let just move on.
Imoen: Come on Erevain. Lighten up. What's got yer tongue so twisted?
Erevain: I said No Imoen! Leave me be.
Imoen: Geez. Be that way then.

9.120 Imoen Banter 2
9.120 Outline
Erevain asks Imoen if she ever got to visit beautiful places as a child. Imoen responds that she and CHARNAME never got to leave Candlekeep's walls very much, but that she enjoys the beauty of the forests. Erevain smiles and recalls the beauty of the Evereskan forests of his homeland. How he'd traveled up and down every tree so many times that he memorized the names of every tree. Imoen is astonished to know that every tree has a name. She asks if every rock, every road, and every building also has a name in Evereska. Erevain grows a little more silent and says that "Maybe Later." Imoen interrupts and tries to ask what's the matter, but Erevain puts his hand up and repeats "Later, maybe."
9.120 Content

Erevain: Imoen, did you ever manage to visit beautiful places as a young one? Ever get out of that dusty Candlekeep?
Imoen: <CHARNAME> and I rarely got out. We were always chastised that we wouldn't be allowed back inside if we left the walls. I think that was more to scare us than anything. But, there were a few times we got to see outside. When I did, I always wanted to visit the beautiful forests and all of the life they had to show.
Erevain: That reminds me of my home of Evereska. Imoen, we had the most beautiful forests in all of Faerûn. ReEvery tenday I would travel up and down each tree reciting each one's name: Agala, Einid, Ogainithyn, Illesmyin, Nintomyan, Erevain, and so on.
Imoen: Erevain? Really? Did your parents name you after a big stick with greens? What came first, you or the tree?
Erevain: The tree. An ancient exquisite Duskwood that has been growing for centuries prior to my birth. Such namings are not uncommon amongst the elves.
Imoen: So does every coffee mug, every weed, and that pebble over their have names too?
Erevain: You make me smile Imoen. No, Not everything in nature have a name.
Imoen: Well I'd bet your name was a lot better than most other ones out there and it helped make you more famous in Evereska.
Erevain: ...Maybe later
Imoen: What?
Erevain: ...Later. Maybe. Let's continue moving.

At rest, Imoen tries to pilfer through Erevain's belongings.

At Rest or Before Waking.

Imoen: Why is Erevain always so moody about his past. Maybe there's something in that journal I seem him writing occasionally.
Imoen: (Sneaks nearby Erevain resting and grabs Erevain's bag)
Erevain: (Quickly turns around and grabs his bag)
Erevain: Do you intend to steal from all your companions!
Imoen: Um, er....no...
Erevain: Do you think that an expert infiltrator doesn't know when he's being inflitrated!
Imoen: I wasn't inflitrating you I...
Erevain: Yes, you were! I'm not as careless as some of these companions
Shar-Teel (if present): Watch where your loose tongue points elfling!
Erevain: I will not be stolen from you harlot!
Imoen: Hey, be careful what you say grumblebutt! Take your stupid bag and journal! (Imoen lets go of Erevain's bag)
Erevain: Be careful that you don't steal what's not yours! There's nothing here that your child mind would be impressed with!


1. CHARNAME: Hey, Imoen shouldn't have tried to take your bag, but do you have to be so mean about it?
2. CHARNAME: I'm sorry about that Erevain, Imoen had no right to take that bag from you.
3. CHARNAME: If you can't defend your bags, then you can't be mad that Imoen wants to take them.
4. CHARNAME: You huffed pretty loudly when you almost lost an item. A thief was mad at a thief for stealing. Is the irony lost on you, Erevain?
5. CHARNAME: Be careful what you say! Imoen has been my friend a long time and she doesn't deserve to be called those names.


1. Erevain: (pats CHARNAME on the shoulder and smiles). You are more than welcome to be nice to rogues who steal from you, and I'm sure they'll be so grateful to you that they won't do it again.
2. Erevain: Thanks. Watch her more carefully. Imoen's harmless thefts could do us a lot of harm eventually. Not all are so forgiving as I am.
3. Erevain: I did defend my bag, thank you. And yes, I can be mad at someone who wants to steal from me.

3.1 CHARNAME: You huffed pretty loudly when you almost lost an item. A thief was mad at a thief for stealing. Is the irony lost on you, Erevain?
3.2 CHARNAME: You're right, my apologies.

4. , 3.1 Erevain: I only steal when I need to or the person I'm stealing from can afford to lose it.

1. CHARNAME: So couldn't you afford to lose the bag? Sounds hypocritical to me.
2. CHARNAME: I don't care much at all for stealing. I'd suggest you cease doing so while you're in this party.
3. CHARNAME: I understand. We all have private things that we aren't ready to share

1. Erevain: I don't answer to you. Leave me be.
2. Erevain: .....
3. ....Thank you

5. Erevain: Then perhaps she shouldn't be taking what is not hers! I don't think anyone in this party signed up to be robbed by fellow members!

5.1 CHARNAME: I don't care what Imoen does! You had better not say those things to her if you want to stay in this group! She has been a friend for a long time and that tone is not welcome!
5.2 CHARNAME: Yes, she shouldn't have done that. But, neither should you say such cruel things to her!

5.1 Erevain: Then perhaps I should leave then. It seems that my well-being isn't important here.
5.2 Erevain: Dear Corellon help me!

5.1.1 CHARNAME: Yes, I think you should leave. I'm sick of your rotten attitude.
5.1.2 CHARNAME: I don't want you to leave Erevain; you need to understand the seriousness of calling Imoen such rotten names.

5.1.1 Erevain: Good riddance. Joining this group was a mistake. Have fun getting stolen from everyone. (Erevan leaves permanently).
5.1.2 Erevain: I'll stay for now. But dear Corellon help me! These people equate stealing with name-calling!

Erevain: I did? (Erevain scratches his head a bit).
Erevain: Yes, I apologize for calling you a child.
Imoen: (Smiles) Thank you.

During Throne of Bhaal. Erevain tells Imoen a little about his Evereskan home and how he wishes he could show her after all these adventures are over. Imoen says she'd love to visit it with him when the world doesn't require so much saving.

9.150 Content

Erevain: Despite everything, I know that you harbor some good feelings about your home of Candlekeep
Imoen: Ya I do. It was a stuffy uptight place full of fun opportunities to pull pranks. But, it was home.
Erevain: My home was a giant maple tree. Filled with markings of my ancestors generations back until the founding of the Blacksheaf clan. There was laughter and play at every season of each year there. All of my siblings and cousins would play around it together. That tree housed, warmed, and fed us with its delicious syrup.
Imoen: That sounds like a very happy childhood home.
Erevain: I would love to take you there and show it to you one day. I am sure the Evereskans would allow a savior of an elven city to visit with honors.
Imoen: And I would love to visit it with you one day when the world does not require as much saving.
Erevain: That would be most wonderful.


9.210 Minsc Banter 1
9.210 Outline

Erevain asks Minsc if his homeland of Rashemen is as cold as Icewind Dale. Minsc responds that it is indeed very cold and parts of this area remind him of home. Minsc laments that he'd love to meet some of the barbarians nearby. Erevain responds that if he does, Minsc would be most helpful if any conflict were inevitable. Minsc disagrees and says that Boo is his most fearsome weapon and that Evil best be wary lest its butt be kicked.

9.210 Content

Erevain: Minsc, would you consider Rashemen to be as cold as Icewind Dale?
Minsc: Beloved Rashemen was far colder than any puny Dale. Minsc had to use his beserker strength just to warm up Boo. Brr. This place is rather cold and Boo is freezing. Maybe this place is like Rashmen.
Minsc: What's that Boo? Yes. This area does remind me of home. Minsc would love to meet some mighty barbarian warriors here. Such mammoth warriors are an inspiration to all.
Erevain: Well, if we do run into any barbarians. I'll be glad to have you with me Minsc. You are a most formidable weapon.
Minsc: No. Boo is the most fearsome weapon. Evil be wary of his harp claws and pointy teeth!

9.220 Minsc Banter 2

Erevain comments that in Elven lands they have an intelligent pet called the Cooshee, a loyal intelligent companion that others erroneously refer to as a breed of dog. Minsc comments that he has an intelligent miniature giant space hamster that someitmes others erroneously refer to as a regular hamster. Erevain scoffs a bit and asks how Minsc knows that Boo is intelligent. Minsc laughs and tells Erevain to ask a series of questions of Boo. Erevain obliges. Erevain asks Boo to stand. Minsc whispers to Boo and Boo stands. Erevain asks Boo to roll around. Minsc whispers to Boo to roll around and Boo does so. Erevain asks Boo to name of the days of the tenday. Minsc whispers to Boo and Boo squeaks back. Minsc repeats "Firstday, Secondday, Thirdday, Fourthday, Fifthday, Sixthday, Seventhday, Eigthday, Ninthday, and Tenday" Erevain slightly annoyed says that Boo is only responding to Minsc's comments and that its just Minsc reciting the days of the Tenday. Minsc laughs telling Erevain that it's not Minsc's or Boo's fault that Erevain doesn't speak Giant Space Hamster, but don't worry they don't question that Erevain is intelligent.

Erevain: In Elven lands we have intelligent pets called Cooshees. They are often erroneously referred to as a breed of dogs by outsiders.
Minsc: Boo is an intelligent miniature giant space hamster which others foolishly refer to as a normal hamster.
Erevain: Hah, how do you know that Boo is intelligent?
Minsc: You are funny elf. Go ahead. Ask Boo any question. He is a very smart
Erevain: Boo. Roll around
Minsc: (whispers to Boo).
Minsc: See there he did.
Erevain: What are the days of the Tenday?

Erevain: Grrr. You are the the one reciting these answers. Not Boo!
Minsc: Haha. Erevain, it is not Minsc or Boo's fault that you do not speak Giant Space Hamster. Do no worry. We Minsc and Boo do not doubt your intelligence though.

Aerie: Erevain. What is beauty?
Erevain: Beauty is what is desirous. What tantalizes the senses and brings that instant sense of awe.
Aerie: So, lust is beauty?
Erevain: Not quite. True beauty is something we're simply instantly attracted to; it is something we want to have or be around
Aerie: So, beauty is lust
Erevain: Hmm. I guess it is hard to separate two.
Aerie: Beauty is just a quality. Lust is just a way to appreciate that beauty in a way that is too much.
Erevain: I have a lust for life and if that is too much, so be it!
Aerie: Of that I am sure Erevain.

Erevain: So, how long did you stay in De'Arnise Keep when you were young?
Nalia: I'm not sure what you mean by that question, good elf.
Erevain: Were you not bored? Did you not grow tired of that stone fortress?
Nalia: Of course I did. Which is why I learned ways to sneak out of the walls many a time and in fact learned magic to aid me in my escapes.
Erevain: I was never so lucky. Even if I wanted to escape Evereska, I'd have been caught almost immediately by the Vale Guards.
Nalia: So you loved your home enough to not want to leave it. How is that unlucky?
Erevain: I suppose I may have tried to leave it if I knew that it weren't so well defended.
Nalia: And, yet you have left it. After so many years. Do you miss it?
Erevain: ....Yes. I...No. I'm sorry. Let us continue. I can say no more.
Nalia: Alright Erevain. As you wish.

Erevain: Sir Keldorn. How can you stand to wear such bulky and orange armor? Don't you just wish to take it off immediately?
Keldorn: Lord Keldorn. And, this is my family armor, passed down from generation to generation. I honor them by wearing it and besides, I'm more nimble in it than you'd normally think.
Erevain: (puts his hands on the armor and pulls up). But, it's still so weighty. How can you stand it?
Keldorn: Get your thieving hands off of me. This armor suits my family and I well enough. Not every armor is a shade of brown or green and elvenmade
Erevain: But, they're so much more comfortable and beautiful don't you think?
Keldorn: I do not and prefer my own. A sure way to disappoint an elven thief is surely to place large heavy items in their paths. Good day to you.

Erevain asks why Keldorn wanted to join the Order of the Radiant Heart rather than becoming a sellsword. Keldorn responds that that is an impertinent question and that the Order of the Radiant Heart is far more prestigious and praiseworthy way to live one's life rather than be dedicated to one's coinpurse.

Valygar: Hmph. We'll see. I have heard of that cloak. Do you have one?

Erevain: Yes, there were the Swords of Evereska, a group of Fighters, Wizards, and Paladins. I'm sure you would like them.
Mazzy: I would! Tell me of them, what are they like? What tests and challenges do you have to face to join them?

Mazzy: What strange Elvish question is this? Why would my kind dance in battle?
Erevain: Sometimes it's entertaining to add additional twirls, flips, and thrusts while fighting your enemies
Mazzy: I assure you that halflings fight very hard to defend themselves, their homes, and their families, they are not the least concerned about using such "flair"
Erevain: Halflings are so agile though! Not even a little somersault?

Erevain: Natural skill enhanced by magic.
Yoshimo: Hah. Without such magics you are an inferior rogue no?
Erevain: Perhaps. I have much to learn and would do well to learn from one such as yourself. You display such skill in your trapmaking. I have no idea how you accomplish what you do.

Erevain: The Swords of Evereska have prospered for far longer and served many a more people.
Anomen: Yes, I've heard of them. Noble deeds I'm sure, but for elves only. The Order of the Radiant Heart works for the good of all.
Erevain: The Swords of Evereska have done many a good as well. And actively seek out to help others.
Anomen: Other elves that is. If you can enter Evereska's Hidden Vale, which non-elves cannot visit. The Order of the Radiant Heart is open to all in seeking justice. Good intentions from your elven counterparts perhaps, but not in deeds.

Jan: So, how is it being an elf Erevain?
Erevain: I am fine being an elf Jan.
Jan: My third great uncle Nesmot was an elf for a long time. His large floppy ears made all the elven ladies swoon over and over after him. Unfortunately, male elves jealous of his ears stole his earwax one day and that was the end of his run.
Erevain: Yes, elves without earwax is a great tragedy.
Jan: It was. Nesmot's ears grew smaller and smaller and less pointy and less pointy. His confidence shrunk and so did his height. And, that's how Nesmot came back to the Jansens. He just didn't have the earwax to make it as an elf.
Erevain: Well. What an amazing story.
Jan: Oh there's more to Nesmot's journey than that especially the time he met a mucousy medusae.

Jan: I never got to tell you the story of my third great uncle Nesmot and the mucousy medusae did I?
Erevain: No Jan. We are all really longing to hear it.
Jan: Well, be long no more elven friend. You see Nesmot had just a regular inferior nose that most races like yourself have.
Erevain: Excuse me?
Jan: It's simply a fact that Gnomes truly have the best schnozzes in the whole crystal sphere. Nesmot's nose unfortunately could not make par. After a bit too much to drink, Nesmot ended up in the clutches of a medusa and a maedar. The snake lovers got into an argument and upon seeing Nesmot's puny nose and the maedar's handsome one, the medusa wanted to punish her mate. The medusa quickly turned them both into stone, chopped their noses off and switched them out before returning them to flesh again. The maedar was weepingly furious but ol Nesmot was dancing as happy as could be. His new giant green nose was the talk of the town and all the gnomish ladies now swooned for him.
Erevain: Wait what about the mucous?
Jan: Oh yes, well you see that maedar nose while handsome had a real sneezing problem. Nesmot gathered all the mucous and donated it to others and they too saw their noses grow and grow and grow.
Erevain: Big and green?
Jan: At first. Though the green color eventually muted out. The big noses spread like ketchup seeds and that's how gnomes got their beautiful schnozzes.

Haer'Dalis: Tell me Erevain, in what ways do elves of your ilk occupy themselves with acting and the performing arts?
Erevain: We have several elven festivals where actors and actresses play out the parts of gods in ancient tales or as important elven monarchs and figures of the past
Haer'Dalis: What about new plays? New stories? New tales?
Erevain: I can't say those are generally told in the format that you're most fond of.
Haer'Dalis: How unfortunate. When did elves become so boring. Wouldn't you like to be able to play a king? A beggar, a guard, a vigilante, a lover?
Erevain: Elves live a lot longer than most humanoids Haer'Dalis. We already get to play so many roles in a lifetime.
Haer'Dalis: But, you can't play all of them.
Erevain: That's what magic is for. Become a man or a woman. Or a human or halfling and so forth.
Haer'Dalis: Hmm. Most peculiar. Even such magics cannot substitute the immense feeling of truly becoming something other than yourself. You should take some time and try art of acting yourself.

Haer'Dalis: But, I have such a name already, Sparrow.
Erevain: I don't think that name suits you well.
Haer'Dalis: I've played the Sparrow for a long time!

Erevain: Well...er....um
Cernd: I've heard many tales of elven cities. So wondrous! Such an exquisite testament to nature's beauty!
Erevain: Cernd..I think I...

Edwin: The same thing?! A Red Wizard does far more than just one thing! A Conjurer does far more than than just one thing!
Erevain: Yes, but you just summon more things right? A few more hobgoblins, an extra ogre here and there.
Edwin: (These miserable simians know nothing). your knowledge of magic is so fractured, you're likely to throw your sword thinking that's casting a spell.

Edwin: "A regular mage? (pathetic simple simians unable to comprehend). A Conjurer is anything but irregular. Truly valuable is a specialist who can complete their magic to its highest form. Not some pathetic generalist who isn't good at anything.

Edwin: Bah. (imbecilic monkeys thinking they understand the Art). Your powers are even more diluted! I would gladly take any other mage, even a pathetic generalist, instead of you.
Erevain: My power is far more than the sum of my individual parts as you should already know Edwin. And perhaps I'll be a little less generous protecting you next time.
Edwin: I do not need your protection elf. I am well powerful enough on my own.

Erevain asks Shar-Teel about her heritage. Shar-Teel tells Erevain to ask someone else because she's done talking with pathetic male elflings. Erevain comments that rude amazons don't have much clout nor does anyone here like listening to their rubbish threats. Shar-Teel pulls out her sword and warns him to keep his elfling mouth shut or she'll cut Erevain open, CHARNAME willing or not. "I would skewer my own family if they went too far, how much less so a pathetic elf male".

Erevain: Tell me of your heritage Shar-teel. You came from Baldur's Gate, yes?
Shar-Teel: Ask someone else Erevain. I do not talk to poor male elflings.
Erevain: Rude amazons don't have much clout in greater Faerûn. I am sure that everyone else tires of hearing your rubbish threats.
Shar-Teel: Keep your pathetic elfling mouth shut or I'll cut it out of you, <CHARNAME> willing or not.
Shar-Teel: I would skewer my own family for such words, much less so an imbecile as you.

Shar-Teel warns Erevain to stop looking her way. "I told you before to place your pathetic gaze elsewhere. I shall not warn you again elfling!" Erevain tells her to shut up and that he wasn't looking her way and that the most perverted Calimshite wouldn't be tempted to even considering looking at her. Shar-Teel says "That's it!" Shar-Teel and Erevain Blacksheaf automatically equip their melee weapons and enter a cutscene where they fight each other with melee attacks. Shar-Teel and Erevain are both given a temporary effect similar to Imoen's belt where neither of them can go below 1 HP.


The fight commences. If Erevain is reduced to one hp, he is scripted to be knocked down and stay down until Shar-Teel finishes her dialogue. "Next time, you won't get up." Shar-teel kicks Erevain Blacksheaf in the groin and he wails in pain. If Shar-Teel is reduced to one hp, she is scripted to be knocked down and stay down until Erevain finishes his dialogue. "No more threats from you ever again" Erevain inches closer to her and whispers "I can attack more locations than just the front"

Shar-Teel: I told you before to place your pathetic gaze elsewhere. This is your last warning elfling!
Erevain: Oh just shut up! I long tire of your baseless threats. I wasn't looking your way and even the most perverted Calimshite would never be tempted to look your way.
Shar-Teel: That's it!

Erevain asks Dar how he feels about all the Orcs, Dar's people, that ravage and kill Elves, Erevain's people. Dar responds that he's not like those orcs and that he was raised by priests of Ilmater to be kind, just, and merciful. Erevain retorts that a spider is still a spider and cannot overcome its nature.

Erevain: How do you feel about your people Dar?
Dar: My people?
Erevain: Yes, orcs. Those savages that pillage and kill civilized beings including the elves, my people.
Dar: I am unlike those orcs. I was raised by priests of Ilmater to be kind, just, and merciful.
Erevain: A spider is still a spider and cannot overcome its nature.
Dar: I hope to prove my nature as a noble one.

Erevain asks Dar how many times he has beaten someone and stolen someone's property. Dar doesn't understand the question as Ilmater expressly forbids such behavior. Erevain says that that doesn't matter. Orcs are well known thugs and Dar is one of their kind. So Dar, stop avoiding the question. How many times have you beaten someone or stolen property? Dar responds that he's never stolen anything nor harmed any innocents. Erevain gets annoyed with Dar. "A spider is still a spider"

Erevain: How many times have you beaten someone or stolen property Dar?
Dar: I do not understand. Ilmater forbids such behavior

Erevain asks Accalia if Tempurans have any memorable festivals that they celebrate. Accalia asks why Erevain would ask such a question. Erevain says that he misses the Lateu'quor, or translated in the common tongue as the Forest Communion of the Crescent Moon. "The most beautiful sight you'd ever see. Exquisite dancing, drinking, music, and art of all kinds. Rarely, Corellon bestows a special gift at these celebrations: A piece of Art, a Harp, a suit of Armor." "Wow, that's impressive." "It is. In fact, this sword was one of the gifts on one of those rare nights. The Feywarden of Corellon chose me to receive it". Accalia laughs "Out of all the elves of Evereska, why'd you get it?" "I don't know. To this day I don't know. My brothers and cousins were so jealous! The sword has served me well though." "I envy you Erevain of Corellon, I hope that Tempus will honor me in such a way one day. "Erevain smiles. Perhaps he shall!"

12.310 Content

Erevain: Do Tempurans have any major festivals that they celebrate?
Accalia: Why do you ask such a question Erevain?
Erevain: I miss the Lateu'quor. It roughly translates in the common tongue as the Forest Communion of the Crescent Moon. It has the most beautiful sight you'd ever see. Exquisite dancing, drinking, music, and art of all kinds. Rarely, Corellon bestows a special gift at these celebrations: A piece of Art, a Harp, or even a suit of Armor.
Accalia: My, that's impressive.
Erevain: It is. In fact, this sword was one of the gifts on one of those rare nights. The Feywarden of Corellon chose me to receive it.
Accalia: Out of all the elves of Evereska, why were you chosen for that honor?
Erevain: I do not know. To this day I do not know. My brothers and cousins were so jealous. The sword has served me well though.
Accalia: I envy you Erevain of Corellon; I hope that Tempus will honor me in such a way one day.

Accalia: Corellon seemed to favor you for some reason
Erevain: True, yes.
Accalia: Yet, how many more priests of Corellon never received his direct favor in that way.
Erevain: Yes, I suppose. But, the gods can't favor all of their servants can they? Else, favored wouldn't mean anything right?
Accalia: But why is it that many times the god's most devoted servants are not among the god's first chosen?
Erevain: I'm sure that Tempus favors plenty of his priests. Why do you doubt that Tempus does not favor you? You seem to have done quite well. Tempus does grant you spells does he not?
Accalia: He does. I suppose that I can be impatient at times. I want to do great things to honor Tempus and his church.
Erevain: I'm sure that you shall and I shall be here to assist.

Erevain: Accalia, we talked before, but you never told me about the Tempuran festivals.
Accalia: Once per year, Tempurans celebrate the Feast of the Moon. On that day under the full moonlight, we have a large feast accompanied by a set of rituals and prayers honoring the fallen warriors and paying tribute to the fallen warriors to come. Sometimes the children put on plays reliving famous battles.
Erevain: That sounds gruesome.
Accalia: (glares at Erevain). The weapons are blunted and precautions are made to ensure that none of the child actors are hurt. (smiles) In fact, one year as a child I got to play as Tempus himself fully hidden and concealed behind a helmet and riding on two ponies representing his steeds, Veiros and Deiros. It was frightening to be wearing such heavy armor and having to stand with one foot on each of the two ponies, but was nonetheless thrilling and great fun.
Erevain: I suppose that sounds like fun, but you couldn't play as any famous female warrior or heroine?
Accalia: The boy who was supposed to portray Tempus hurt his back and we needed a quick replacement. Since I was about the same stature, they chose me for the role. Tempus has never been known to speak directly on Faerun. So, the role was silent which also suited me well.
Erevain: That's nice, but I still think that it's a shame that your "fun" had to involve you becoming a man.
Accalia: It is a great honor to portray Tempus. Tempus is the most sublime heroic deities that Faerûn who has armed and defended these lands for hundreds of years. I would gladly become Tempus, man or not and am honored to have him as my deity.
Erevain: And you thought that you weren't favored? It seems that Tempus is equally fortunate to have such a devoted priestess as you.
Accalia: (laughs). You are right Erevain. I should be more mindful of Tempus's blessings.
Erevain: Absolutely, afterall, he brought us together with Hrothgar and CHARNAME. I'm sure we'll find even greater glories that you can pen in Tempus's honor
Accalia: (smiles). Yes indeed. Let us continue.

Erevain: Why out of all the Ten Towns, did you choose Easthaven Hrothgar?
Hrothgar: Easthaven seemed the best fit for me. It was and still is quite comfortable with enough friendly neighbors.

Erevain: The moonblade and the elven chain. Whom did you steal or kill to retrieve those?
Leina: Where do you get off accusing people of such horrible things? I have done no such thing.
Erevain: Those items are not shared with non-elves. They are created specifically for the Tel-quessir: not half-breeds like you.
Leina: Such vile rudeness Erevain. You are no better than the majority of humans who persecute me.
Erevain: Call me what you wish, but I have no patience for the the theft of elven artifacts.

Leina: I told you not to speak to me of these things again! Why do you torment me so! I have done nothing wrong.
Erevain: If you have done nothing wrong then why can't you say how you got them! You wouldn't want family heirlooms in unlawful hands would you!
Leina: These items were given to me after my mother's death! I...didn't know about it for many months. They are among the few remnants that are left of my mother's life.
Erevain: Yes, it does seem that the moonblade has not rejected you. Else, you would not be able to even lift it. Your ability to wear that armor does seem to suggest a familial fit. Your mother was an elf?
Leina: Yes Erevain.
Erevain: It is still highly irregular for such precious items to transfer to a half-breed. But, your words are likely true.
Leina: Would you stop calling me a half-breed! I am a full-blooded woman with a heart, mind, and soul! I used to have loving parents who endured a lot of hardship and you would do well to remember that.

Melora: I don't need any of that filthy magic to help me. I do more than well enough on my own.
Erevain: Then I am sure you will remain small in more ways than one.
Melora: Watch your tongue elf. I would chuck any undeserving male to the Nine Hells if they deserved it. Don't push yourself further into that category.

Melora: It's not my fault that men betray their lovers and use magic to hide their misdeeds.
Erevain: I have done no such thing.
Melora: Sure ya haven't. No one believes liars who charm ladies with their magic and then just as the spell fades away tosses those same ladies away.
Erevain: There is room for a healthy awareness of magic. I am sorry if such things happened to you.
Melora: Sorry doesn't do a lick for me Erevain. What my father did to my mother is long past.

Erevain: A N-Tel-Quess cannot become a Tel-quessir
Taffic: What in Toril is that supposed to mean.
Erevain: (sigh). A gnome cannot simply become an elf.
Taffic: How closed-minded of you! Such magics are very possible! We must find a mage with the proper skill.
Erevain: Taking the form of an elf does not make you an elf. The elven spirit and soul are alien things to that of other races.
Taffic: Well, perhaps I shall find a suitable elven spirit and soul to complement my form and you will help me.
Erevain: I most certainly will not. To steal those from a living elf or to petition for a new soul and spirit to go to a N-Tel-Quess would be an abomination to Corellon.
Taffic: You're just greedy, wanting all the greatness for yourself. <CHARNAME> will help me and I will become great. You just watch!

Erevain: A demon? Are you unmistakably convinced?
Taffic: Of course. I was clearly meant to become great through evolving into a powerful demon
Erevain: Demons are the tortured souls of horrific mortals transformed into an evil nightmarish form and doomed to serve as pawns of their cruel overlords. Why in the Gray Waste would you want that for yourself?
Taffic: What are you talking about I just want to become a demon, not actually die!
Erevain: Don't you think there might be some problem in trying to become a demon without any of the drawbacks?
Taffic: Such foolishness Erevain. You have no confidence in the Art you yourself practice. You stay a weak elf Erevain; I'm going to become a powerful demon. You just watch.

Kachiko: Katanas are made by the most dedicated weaponsmiths in Kara-Tur. The time required to create them is extraordinary and the crafstmanship of a Katana is unparalleled.
Erevain: (Pulls out a longsword). Look at that Kachiko. Behold this magnificent elven make. Far finer than what could be made elsewhere.
Kachiko: Perhaps we must live with our disagreements unless you were willing to put our blades to the test?

Kachiko: Well, hmm. I have heard of something you might call a "Star Elf". Some legends have been told of tall fey creatures like yourself with star diadems that have come to trade occasionally on the outer west rim of my homeland. I've never seen any evidence of them myself mind you.

Erevain: Surely, Corellon Larethian or Rillifane Rallathil does all of that and more no?
Sime: I suppose I do not know. I am not very familiar with the Elven gods.
Erevain: I'm very surprised. Surely you would have come across many an elf to teach you yes?
Sime: Mielikki guides me to protect the forests and the good creatures of the land and not toward any kind of creature in particular.

Erevain: How so?
Sime: Your elven kindred have built themselves grand cities and try to erect them in harmony with nature nature
Erevain: Yes, of course. That harmony is one of our major accomplishments.
Sime: However, even so many of your people seem to have lost touch with nature itself, spending their time dealing with the foibles of civilization.
Erevain: Foibles? Music, art, poetry, and beautiful craftsmanship of all kinds!
Sime: While beautiful, it takes your people away from the beauty of nature. The only ones among you that still appreciate it fully seem to be the Wild Elves.
Erevain: What? My barely dressed, tattooed, covered in mud cousins? No, when I meet them in my journeys they shall be warmly welcomed but from a distance and not touched.
Sime: You wish to claim a closeness to nature yet you wish not to be close even to your kin.

My mentor Yalatheniel ordered a group of Vale Guards and myself to join him in an anticipatory strike before the invading orcs arrived. We had little time to prepare. I snuck off ahead to scout the orc position when I was ambushed by a group of them. I tried my best, but was knocked out by one of their poisons and left for dead. I was able to awaken some time later to discover the horror at my eyes. My Vale Guard kindred were slaughtered as was my beloved mentor, the elf who helped perfect my combat, magical, and infiltration expertise. I had failed to stop or slow down those vile orcs and my dear friends were slain; that same orc party marched their way toward Evereska can began their full assault If I simply could have endured that skirmish, all would have been different; the enemy position and their numbers could have been reported back.

CHErevainPIB2

Erevain: Tell me about Bladesingers. I've heard about them and their legendary feats of mixing blade and magic.

No no no no no! Why do you want to know about Bladesingers. Why does everyone want to know about Bladesingers!

a. Bladesingers are legendary. Aren't you a bladesinger? Goto1
b. Why don't you like Bladesingers? Shouldn't elves be proud of such legendary figures? Goto 3
c. You're right. Bladesingers are stupid! Fie to all ye dumb Bladesingers!

1 No, I am not! Just because I like to cast spells in enchanted elven armor, wield swords in one hand and nothing in the other does not make me a bladesinger!
a. That sounds a lot like a Bladesinger to me goto 2
b. Uhh...yeah. Erevain, you're definitely not a Bladesinger. No possible way. Goto 2
c. That's how Bladesingers fight? I thought they'd be wielding two greatswords, one in each hand, shooting fireballs and lightning bolts from each one while their enemies flew in desperate fear. Goto 2
D. I seem to have hit a sore spot. Let us just continue our travels ~Exit

2 (sigh) Corellon, soothe me with your music.

3 I do not dislike Bladesingers. Their reputation is highly exaggerated amongst the N-Tel-Quess. And it is very aggravating that everyone asks about them.

a. Who are the N-Tel-Quess? Go to 4
b. So, let me guess, you could never be a Bladesinger and you wanted to be? Goto 5
c. Very well. Let us continue our travels ~ Exit

4 The N-Tel-Quess are what we refer to in Elvish as non-Elves or non-people

a. That sounds like a racially antagonist term don't you think Erevain? GoTo 6
b. Very well. That makes sense. Let us move on. ~Exit
c. How does one become a non-N-Tel-Quess? Goto 7

5. Hrmmph! I never said or implied that! Oh Sehanine! Please cure me from this insanity! ~Exit

6. Grrr Grrr Grrrr......it is not anything of the sort. Either one is an elf or not! May Erevan Ilesere hide me from this madness! ~Exit

7. One cannot become a Tel-quessir if one is not already.
a. What's a Tel-quessir? GoTo 8
b. What about polymorph, reincarnation, shapechange, or any other such spells? GoTO 9
c. Sure one can; just get adopted! GoTo 9
d. Good point Erevain. Let us continue traveling.~Exit

8. (Sigh). Why Labelas Enoreth are we going on The Retreat! These other races are so ignorant of our people. A Tel-quessir is best translated as an elf or "of the people". I am beyond tired of this conversation. Let us move on ~Exit

9. (Sigh) That does not make one a Tel-quessir! The Elven soul and spirit are entirely different from other races. I tire of talking. Let us move on. ~Exit

Erevain: Oh Sehanine! Why did I agree to travel this way! If I didn't despise the cold enough to have these frost giants kill most us! (Sigh) If we barely made it then surely future travelers would surely perish, I suppose we must defend the innocent and find the source of these attacks.

16.300 Arrival at Dragon's Eye

16.300 Content

Erevain: This stone fabric truly resembles a Dragon. What a grand sight! However, such ostentatious displays are likely used to mask how weak the defenses are on the inside. Carry on <CHARNAME>. but I do think that I could handle this locale on my own just fine.

16.390 Speech to CHarname before deciding to go home or to Severed Hand
16.390 Outline

Every NPC gets a chance to respond to Hrothgar's request to travel to the Severed Hand. This is Erevain's response

16.390 Content

Original Line Hrothgar: Arundel struggled against the pain of his injuries to remain alive so he could tell us what he knew in the hope that we would continue our mission to save Kuldahar and maybe even Easthaven. Are we going to let all he suffered be for nothing?

Erevain: I admit a strong pull to visit the Severed Hand and to visit a famous locale of my people. However, adventure in <CHARNAME>'s time would be an unprecedented opportunity. Whatever you choose <CHARNAME>, I shall follow you.

After rejecting Hrothgar's offer to visit the Severed Hand, the player can click on the portal and the following will happen.

//The below happens after <CHARNAME> Says : So once again we are destined to take the unknown road. Let us ready ourselves for what lies ahead.

Erevain: Wherever you go <CHARNAME>, I shall go as well. It has been awhile since adventuring has caught my heart racing so! It shall be quite enlightening to see the world of your time period.

//If Imoen is present
Imoen: Oh yes, we'll have so much to share with you. Great foods such as mud pies, butterfly wheels, and pixie stuffing!

//If Imoen is present
Erevain: That sounds most gruesome actually.

//If Imoen is present
Imoen: Oh, don't take everything so literal Erevain. There's so many fun things to experience! You'll love it somewhere warmer

//If Imoen is present
Erevain: Rightly so! Getting away from this Icy Anvil will be most welcome!

Original Line CHARNAME: What the hell is going on here?!
....
Hrothgar: I am sorry, I did not mean to alarm you.

Erevain: What strange magic got us here Hrothgar? Such power is common amongst the most powerful of mages. Of which you do not appear to be.

Erevain: It pains me to see such desecration of an elven fortress. How I wish I could view this place in its prime! It would have been a wonder. Now here it lays. No longer the Hand of the Seldarine, but merely the Severed Hand. A once beautiful powerful stronghold blessed by the elven gods themselves and now just an infested ruin. How I wish that I could transform this place brighter than what it was before and say Hail Beauty, Vanimle Aaye, my heart sings to thee, Cormamin lindua ele lle.

16.2130 Epilogue 3: Erevain Romance Non-Elf
16.2130 Outline
16.2130 Content

After twenty years of travels away from home, Erevain finally returned to his home in Evereska. Erevain warmly embraced friends and family not seen in decades. Here he proudly introduced his famous wife, <CHARNAME>. The Blacksheaf clan was impressed with <CHARNAME>'s deeds and heroism, but behind closed doors expressed that they couldn't help but be disappointed by Erevain's choice of a N-Tel-Quess spouse, further diluting the family bloodline and contributing to the increasing scarcity of elves across Faerûn.

Unbeknownst to <CHARNAME>, Erevain challenged his own clan and vigorously defended his spousal selection. Erevain's pleads were disregarded and his clan's opinion remained firm. Rejected a second time, Erevain left Evereska with <CHARNAME> and continued to adventure for a time before settling for a simpler life in Calimshan. News of <CHARNAME>'s pregnancy wavered Erevain's resolve and the birth of their child broke it completely.

Unable to bear the living humiliation of disappointing his family again, Erevain abandoned <CHARNAME> and their infant daughter. Without a word, Erevain left to wander the outskirts of Faerûn, the foreign lands of Zakhara and Kara-Tur, and later the outer planes themselves. Forever ashamed of his actions towards his family and to <CHARNAME>, Erevain drifted for centuries. Eventually, Erevain disappeared entirely and the name "Erevain Blacksheaf" was lost from memory.

17.200 Outline
17.200 Content

Erevain: It angers my soul to see such a monument to the Tel-Quessir desecrated like this. One day my people's numbers will increase again and we will abandon the Retreat. We will reclaim and restore these abandoned locales and make them ours again. This is Hanali Celanil, goddess of love and beauty. That is Labelas Enoreth, god of time and longevity. The rest are more difficult for me to decipher. Damn the beasts responsible for this.

Erevain: We have truly done a great deed here <CHARNAME>. Now, the souls of these elves may yet rest and join with the Seldarine. You have my respect. Never again must a thing like this be permitted to happen.

17.400 Speaking to Pomnab
17.400 Outline

Erevain says hello to Pomnab and notes how Pomnab is a Calimshite out of place. Pomnab makes a remark about how Erevain is an elf out of place. Erevain notes that Calimshan is one region he's never visited before and how he'd love to see the dunes and feel the hot air. Pomnab reflects longingly about missing the feel of the hot sand between his toes, the Memnon wines, and the harems of which none are present in the bitter North

17.400 Content

Erevain: Greetings again Pomnab. You seem to be just as out of place this time as when I first met you.
Pomnab: A pretentious comment from an elf so far up North near the Spine of the World. I have a royal purpose here. You merely have a dangerous wanderlust.
Erevain: I do love to travel it's true. Your homeland, Calimshan, is one region I've never visited. The dunes; the hot sand; what a sight it must be.
Pomnab: Yes, I miss the sand between my toes, the Memnon wines, but most of all the women. There's not a single trollop let alone a harem anywhere up here!
Erevain: Perhaps one day I'll find my way down there and you will have moved on and be able to give me a tour.
Pomnab: Perhaps. *Sigh*. Perhaps.

Erevain's Interjection: Erevain: Boorish fool. Your head hurts because nothing is there! Dolle naa lost!
Ghereg's Interjection Response: What you say elf-twig! You hurt me head?!
Original Responses Continue:
1. Your head? We're not doing anything to make your head hurt.
2. What's wrong with your head?
3. We want to make your head hurt because you're a big dummy. Ha ha!

Original Crazy Goblin Marshall Line: What am I doing here? Rrrrr....

Erevain Interjection: Another mindless biir. I should end your misery.
(If Dar is Present) Dar: Erevain, you cannot simply kill creatures that pose no threat to you.
(If Dar is Present) Erevain: By the Nine Hells I can't! Goblins are almost as vile and treacherous as orcs!
Crazy Goblin Marshal: What did you say? Rrrraugh!

17.700 Meeting Arundel in Kuldahar
17.700 Outline
17.700 Content

Original Arundel Line: I am Arundel, known to some as the Archdruid of Kuldahar. Though I invite you to dispense with the formalities and just call me Arundel, plain and simple. Titles tend only to serve one‘s own vanity and aren‘t really of much use in this small mountain community.

Erevain Interjection: It is good to see you again Arundel. I wish this visit was under more fortuitous circumstances.

Arundel: As do I Erevain. This mountain community is under more strain than ever. With me as an archdruid or not, we will need this expedition's help.

Return to original CHARNAME Dialogue Options:
You are the Archdruid, eh? Then I assume you can tell me what is going on around here?
OR
Very well. Tell me, Arundel, do you know anything about the reports of disturbances in these mountains?

Arundel Original Line: It was this union that the Archdruid Tolben believed would achieve the harmony that we had been striving for for generations... the harmony between man and nature. As it stands, Kuldahar is a monument to this vision

Erevain's Interjection: It is a great union and vision indeed...for humans. Elves have long accomplished such harmony.

Arundel: ..

Thank you Vlad for the support and the picture. I'm pacing myself; getting some work done every day.

Feedback, positive or negative, is always welcome from Vlad and anyone else. This is all obviously a work in progress.

This portrait is too human I afraid Would be good to add more elfish facial features

Bill, triple multiclass is not good.

This post has been edited by Senka: Jun 4 2015, 12:30 PM

[Bill Bisco]

Other than being slower to gain levels comparatively (1 or 2 higher numbers vs 3 lower numbers) , why do you call triple class not good?

This post has been edited by Bill Bisco: Jun 4 2015, 01:44 PM

[Senka]

Because XP would be divided on 3. For example: compare priest-levels by Dar and Accalia. Did you play triple multiclass?

Yes it would be. Which is kind of a bummer that I wanted to help alleviate with this custom thief kit I propose for him.

Yes, I did play a triple multiclass. In fact I've gone through the entire BG1+BG2 start to finish with a Fighter/Mage/Cleric twice! I would say that that is my favorite class combination to play infinity engine games with.

I am aware that some people are not fans of the triple multiclasses and I would like to persuade them to give this concept a chance. There is only one other npc mod that I'm aware of that has a Fighter/Mage/Cleric and there is no other Fighter/Mage/Thief npc that I'm aware of so this would definitely be a plus of uniqueness there.

I could propose to have a custom non removable undroppable amulet similar to Edwin's that grants +20% xp. This would effecively give 40% of all xp earned to each of Erevain's 3 classes which is better than 33.3% and doesn't step on the toes too much of the double multiclass companions. The only disadvantage is that Erevain would outpace potential triple class npcs and CHARNAME (if triple multiclassed).

In fact I'll propose the above because I know that's an issue for some people.

Do you realize triple multiclass for solo or duo?
And you need Triple-Class HLA Tables additionally...

I've done triple multiclass, solo, duo, and in a 6 person party and yes it's more fun leveling a triple solo or duo, which is why he'll have a custom item to increase xp gain.

Triple Class HLA tables and XP cap remover can be installed in other mods if desired. I would recommend those mods, but I'd hate to duplicate them here.

I've added some outlined and written banters for Imoen and a couple of others. I don't know the coding format for the actual game, but I could certainly include this if someone would shoe me how.

Also, is are there any standard number of dialogues for TOB?

Thanks,

Bill

[Vlad]

I'll do coding, Bill. Most important, when you write dialogues, make sure they don't end with PC response. Always the last phrase in a dialogue should be of NPC. No definite number of dialogues.

[Bill Bisco]

Thank you. Continuing to add outlines and dialogues. I want to verify that the NeJ NPCs are

Shar-Teel
Dar
Accalia
Hrothgar
Leina
Taffic
Melora

Am I missing any?

[Vlad]

It's correct. But add banters also for Yoshimo, Kachiko, Sime, Valygar and Keldorn.

[Bill Bisco]

It's correct. But add banters also for Yoshimo, Kachiko, Sime, Valygar and Keldorn.

Ok. Great. I didn't have Kachiko and Sime so I'll add them in too. I'll prioritize the banters for Yoshimo, Valygar, and Keldorn.

Since we're including Tortured Souls NPCs, shouldn't Bohdi be included as well? She can join you for some time right?

I'm trying to edit Erevain's intial dialogue with the player. There's this file: NeJ\Dfiles\DEREVAIN.D At some point I think this is compiled into: override\DEREVAIN.dlg"

I'd like to edit this initial dialogue with Erevain and then immediately test it. What do I need to do to properly compile this so that I can test this ingame? Obviously I could edit the .d file and reinstall completely but that would be a prohibitively long process

Bill, of course you can edit the. D text file, but please don't do that. Just send me the dialogues in the format someone says this, another one said that, the protagonist answer, someone replied, another one interject, and so on.

I'll do scripting myself.
