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!  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 This post has been edited by Sir_Carnifex: Apr 20 2008, 10:02 PM -------------------- "Once the game is over, the king and the pawn go back into the same box." - Italian Proverb

I wasn't satisfied with the original portrait as it didn't reflect my NPC's personality, so I spent a few more hours working on a different one. Here are two versions.
  I know that Bioware portrayed halflings as having pointed ears (Montaron, Alora), but I tend imagine them as they are in the Lord of Rings (in which you can't see the ears under the hair and therefore they must look normal  ). However, since this is supposed to blend with the BG2 style, perhaps I should modify the ears. Maybe I should swirl the background some, too. Comments?
