Suggested quests, sound off Options

[Sir-Kill]

There are some that would like to see particular quests in Baldur’s Gate, that were not in the original game. So this is where this mod comes into play, we know what we would like to see, but we would like to hear what you would like to see. This is your chance to be heard, what did you think was missing as far as quests go in the original game? The ideas put forth will be taken in under advisement and may be implemented if you have what it takes to make a good quest , or just a good idea that we can build on.

Concerning changing stats -

What you are suggesting makes a lot of sense, but unfortunately this is not how AD&D works. You get experience points, but they only increase your fighting/magic/thief abilities, not your stats (something like "you are what you were born with" ). The magic books that do that do it magically.-jastey

If I remember correctly from AD&D, there were several ways to increase stats.
1) Ioun Stones [also increased Prot, st, Level]
2) Items that upped stats while worn
3) Ring of 3 Wishes
4) Deck of Many Things

As well as tomes -
And spells that increased stats temporarily

Ioun Stones could be stackable in the "Helm" area and a Ring of 3 Wishes could offer a choice when activated. Something like:
1] Raise a character from the dead
2] Heal entire party
3] Increase an Ability Score
4] Teleport party to a safer place [ie Beregost] during a grueling combat
or such

Although a Deck of Many Things might cause a modder a severe headache unless there is someway to initiate randomization within a mod. [Donjon -- ouch!!]
And if there is, could it not also randomize the action requirements or results with the mod?

But the primary reason for my posting was an idea for the BG1QP:

How about a meeting with a creature/NPC that requires obtaining 3 or 4 different items. Example: A poison potion from the herbalist, Bowl of Commanding Water Elementals and a black opal. All items having to be surrendered at the same time.
Perhaps to conjure an Elemental, which then attacks; or causing the initiator to transform into a Wraith or such that attacks the party.
Some suggestions are:
Sylph along the coast, Sprite with the Cloudpeak Mts, Firenewt in the Naskel Mines [mayhaps where the lava flows and there is no bridge] or a Korred within a forest

Just a thought.
