"I can see pretty easily what other people consider "good" an' "evil," and tell the difference, but I just don't understand why people get so concerned about doin' one or the other. Strikes me that the wisest thing to do is whatever the wisest thing is for whatever situation you're in, not whatever you've decided is some overarchin' truth. So I do "good" if I can profit and "evil" if I can profit and I won't get caught, and the hells can take the hindermost for all that I care which is which."

Dace Linton is a Chaotic Neutral human female bounty hunter, about 33 years old. She will come over and speak to your PC if you leave or enter through the lower archway of Waukeen's Promenade, where you can find her standing on the steps.

Dace is a slight, wiry woman with short brown hair and clothing of a decidedly nondescript colour and practical cut. She speaks in an unremarkable contralto voice, clipping some words strangely and finishing others with a slight lilt. She has a somewhat crooked grin, as though some emotion other than amusement always manages to twist her smile slightly at the last minute. Dace seems very fond of the notion of practicality but doesn't always practice what she preaches, and occasionally shows a streak of whimsicality that borders on ridiculousness. Ninety percent of the time she is operating on Full-Sarcastic, Half-Obnoxious mode, but she is also capable of brief moments of unique insight and kindness.

I just want to thank you again for your help and persistence with this. I wrote Dace about four years ago but just stubbornly refused to finish her. :)

 

*hugs* to you, K'aeloree!

 

I hope some of you are able to enjoy her. Thanks to Spellhold, too, for the hosting opportunity!

And :hug: to you, Tess! Dace is definitely one of my favourite NPCs, I'm so glad she's finally out for everyone to muck around with! :)

She is just on top of the Adventurers Mart door, near the Dwarf/Gnome who shouts things about the Mart. If you get close enough to her she walks to you and start talking...

I'm not sure about much when fiddling with mods, just kinda cross my fingers and hope for the best... and recently I finally got BGTutu to work, and was curious if it was possible for this mod to work in Tutu? I would think so, but would rather check here first, lest I end up melting my computer or something.

 

(Already played SoA all the way through with Dace and enjoyed the addition quite a bit, nice work with it! :P)

Well, TuTu actually only allows you to play through Baldurs Gate. Dace is an NPC for Baldur's Gate II: SoA & ToB

 

In other words--you won't be able to use Dace in a Tutu install. You can, however, use her in a BGT install during the BG2 part of the game. :)

 

Glad you enjoyed her!

Ahah, that would make sense I suppose, guess I better install BGT instead... ;)

Wow, I was going to ask if you planned on updating Dace to BGII:EE, but you've already got it done, so thanks! :D
