Favorite joinable Male: Haer'Dalis. Load him up with enhancement and evocation spells, dual wield Sanchuudoku and Flail of Ages, cast Improved Haste and Stoneskin, and just have him charge into a group of foes while keeping Defensive Spin active. He literally takes out entire dungeons and maps by himself when done right. He also identifies almost anything I run across, which is nice.

Favorite joinable Female: Jaheira. Though irritating at times, she's a fierce tank when done right. I took out Improved Sarevok with only Jaheira twice, had her 1-1 vs Demon Knight of Durlag's Tower, and in general she was a critical part of my battles, racking up to 45% casualities. It's also entertaining to see Jaheira shoot down the idiots of the BG world, like Aerie.

Worst joinable Male: Korgan. I don't like playing pure Fighters and I think Korgan has the emotional stability of a rabid dog in heat.

Worst joinable Female: Aerie, but I bet you saw that coming. I usually hack in an Imprisonment scroll and use it on her, then I cast Hero's Feast and celebrate the end of the most annoying character ever.

Hmm..

Worst BG1 male: Ajantis. I can't.. stand.. his.. bloody.. soundset!!! Or his attitude.

Worst BG1 female: Branwen, who bores me to death. This improved with BG1NPC Project, but I still find her less interesting than the others, followed closely by Safana.

Worst BG2 male: Haer'Dalis. What's the point?

Worst BG2 female: I actually have nothing against any of the BG2 females, but if I have to choose one.. eh, it's a tie between Aerie (for whining) and Mazzy, whom I don't know well enough to be really interested in.

theacefes: You have to be realistic as well, you can't just be Swedish!

...And Berelinde, I had no idea that Dynaheir fans existed. You taught me something new ^_^

Oh, yes, dyed in the wool Dynaheir fan here. I love everything about her, from her soundset to her "kiss my ring" portrait. Plasmocat did one up on BioWare with the portrait, but I still adore her. BG1 NPC made her better, and made her romanceable, and that's a wonderful thing, but I liked her just fine in vanilla BG1, too.

Sarevok and Yoshimo for me, with Edwin coming in third. Among the women it's Viconia hands down.



Yeah, Yoshimo is awesome. And speaking of Yoshimo, your avatar rocks the forums.

I notice some people are posting their least favorites.
So, here goes.

BG1, male-Montaron. He scared the crap out of me. Sadly I had to take him with me if I wanted Xzar to hang around.

BGI, female-I never really liked Shar-Teel or Faldorm. Again, scared the crap out of me. I was also annoyed by Safana.

BGII, male- OH GODS ANOMEN. Why the Hells did he even have to EXIST!? I also find Keldorn boring. And Valgyar's mean to me because I use magic T.T

BGII, female-Jaheira. I mean, in BGI, she was awesome, but in BGII, she's all bossy and ornery and totally not fun to be around. Damn that Irenicus for killing Khalid, I'm pretty sure that's what caused 'Heira's personality change.
