Nalia & Imoen Options

[Sikret]

Are you happy with Nalia's class (= A weaker duplicate of Imeon)? Or do you prefer her to be a sorceress? Of course, she says things about lockpicking in her dialogues, but perhaps they are not really too many or too important. Another alternative is to increase her level in thief class to make her a better thief for those who want to save a slot for a party member (though in this way she will become even more identical with Imoen).

Another option is to leave Nalia as she is and change Imoen to a Sorceress when you find her in Spellhold. The justification can be that through the rituals and experiments performed on her, amazing and radical changes have occurred in her mental status.

A last and moderate choice is to leave both of them as they are but just re-distribute Nalia's thieving skills to make her a better trap finder/disarmer. 10% of her pick pocket skill can be safely moved to her remove trap.

Any comments?

@Magnus:

Yes, Nalia was also a choice. As you can see in my initial post in this thread, Nalia was actually my first suggested candidate. But later, Players mostly voted to change Imoen rather than Nalia.

Story-wise, Nalia being a thief is somewhat more necessary for her character sneaking out of the keep to help the poor and such. Nothing in Imoen's story in BG2 necessitates that she should have thieving skills (just a small number of banters with other NPCs which are already changed).
