All Rejoice!

This mod for Baldur's Gate 2: Shadows of Amn adds to the game a new joinable NPC: Amber, a tiefling rogue of a chaotic good alignment. As tieflings often do, she may initially appear withdrawn, suspicious and restless, but whoever manages to gain her trust will find much more beneath. Possessed of a natural curiosity - which has been both a blessing and a curse - she has learned much, but never enough to keep her out of trouble. Being neither a true extraplanar - she doesn't recall ever having visited any place outside the prime material plane - nor a true prime because of her heritage, she often feels caught somewhere between these two worlds. While she could never pass for a normal person on the prime, she also lacks the otherworldly grace of a seasoned planewalker, leaving her with a strong feeling of alienation wherever she is.

The mod features not only romance and friendship tracks for the protagonist, but also a romance track for a second PC in a multiplayer game (Player 2). This feature is also exploitable in a single player game if you want enjoy two concurrent romances without cheating. In addition, Amber is lavishly voiced and has her own original musical theme.

Quote from Amber's newest Readme file:

QUOTE
Moved the additions to Haegan's script to the slaver area file.


With this reasonable change, Amber NPC is now (most probably) compatible with Improved Anvil (someone should test them together for 100% certainty though).

Thanks, Meira!

Improved Anvil




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.
