I have begun work on an NPC mod.

He will be a halfling thief. Now, don't start screaming "We have to many thieves already!" I have hardly seen mods that include halfling NPC's (Alora is the only one I know) and I just imagine halflings as being thieves and nothing else. Needless to say, I dislike Mazzy! wink.gif

I'm no artist, but I scraped up this portrait for him. I may want to change it later.



His name is Halbo and he is an over-sized Halfling. He has a tendency to rub other party members the wrong way -- intentionally if he can. Though he has no problems with verbal warfare, he prefers to avoid real battle if possible. He is highly-skilled with a sling (including called shot ability), but at a cost.

He will be available somewhere in the Druid Grove.

His stats are:

STR: 15
DEX: 19
CON: 17
INT: 13
WIS: 8
CHA: 11

Total: 83

For starters, I intend to just make him a basic character. He will have plenty of banters with the other NPCs, plus some interjections. Later I would like to add his own special quest and items.

I'm open to ideas.

I posted a story using Halbo here: Story

What's the benefit of 17 score of CON for a thief? He won't gain hp bonus for constitution over 16. I suggest to lower the constitution to 16 and add the extra point to one of his other stats.

Cheating is not confined to using external software or the console commands. Abusing the flaws and limitations of the game engine to do something that a human Dungeon Master would not accept or allow is cheating.

Originally I had forgotten about that constitution thing, but later I decided to keep it that way for the reasons mentioned by Moongaze. biggrin.gif

If I did anything with that extra point, I'd just get rid of it rather than placing it in another stat.

Thanks for pointing it out anyway. I tend to miss obvious stuff like that sometimes!
