Hello people!

Using Rabain's work as ground (version 0.5 was released in 2007 and had a number of issues), I have expanded his modification and adapted it to Baldur's Gate Trilogy. The modification is fully compatible with Baldur's Gate 2 and it's downloadable here.

Future versions might be made compatible with EasyTuTu and BG:EE but that's not a priority.

WTP Familiars revises the classic and iconic Find Familiar spell, rebalancing it and making it closer to its PnP counterpart. Sounds, portraits and additional dialogue choices are included, together with a nifty level up system. The familiars are now nine (new entry: Spider as new True Neutral, Rabbit is now Lawful Good) and mages can choose between 3 or 4 (depending on alignment) creatures (exception: True Neutral mages are restricted to the Spider). The violent death of the familiar has severe consequences and the little critters cannot just be used as boost for hit points and then stuffed into the backpack. They will make themselves heard if you do!

Additionally, the familiars have totally different innate powers that are PnP inspired.

The readme is included in the zipped archive. As installation goes, this modification needs to be installed after any other modification (like Spell Revisions) that changes the Find Familiar spell.

This modification needs Ascension64's ToBEx to function properly (if this is not detected, it will be installed automatically).

Thanks and enjoy!
