So... Wich mods are khadion compatible with...?


excuse my enlish....im from sweden

Swedish questions are always welcome.

Khadion will be compatible with most other mods. An exception is Tortured Souls and the Chloe-mod, since they interfear with eachother's story-lines.

/*Khadion kommer alltså att fungera med de flesta andra mods, förutom Tortured Souls och Chloe, eftersom deras stories kolliderar med varandra. */

Jo, jag förstod det. Ville bara visa att jag också var svensk.

Ville du ha hjälp med din mod, förresten? Det är bara att höra av sig i sådana fall.

//Alright, only English in this topic from now on.

How about giving him special equipment to raise his DEX +2, so that he doesn't exceed 18? Maybe his scimitar?

Actually, you could do that with his charisma too. However, I would suggest you pick which attribute you want to magically supplement rather than try to supplement more than one. That can be something the player can do during the course of the game.

For example, I'm playing an NPC (not a mod, just a dude I exported from multiplayer) who's a swashbuckler that started off with a charisma of 11. I know, kind of low if you consider the swashbuckler's kit describes these players as charismatic, but I have a legitimate reason for the low score.

Interestingly, I came across a ring of influence which jacked his charisma to 18, and later in an unrelated move purchased a sword of roses which boosted his charisma to 20 & gave him a once-daily charm person.

Completely outrageous, but I think it's funny that here's this average dude, usually a bungling & arrogant jerk, who now is so charming ppl can't help but like him despite themselves. They know he's a bungling, arrogant jerk and maybe they want to dislike him. But there's just something about him ...

(And no, I don't *think* he's related to Anomen ... )

But then ... I'm twisted that way.

I actually hadn't seen that post you're quoting...

It's an idea that might work. But the scimitar itself already have effects on AC and speed. But I'll think of it.

And he's not a jerk, actually.

Ehh... Come to think of it, that depends on who's looking...

About those high stats, let's give SConrad a hand : there are ways to increase your stats so much, guys. I must admit it's unlikely to have two stats of 20, but not impossible. Remember those books from BG1 ? And the Machine of Lum the mad ? If Khadion is an active adventurer, he could have that chance, of increasing his stats. There are plenty possibilities. But I think SConrad should explain them in his mod. Like Khadion telling his story to the PC : "You know, once I met a wizard who gave me a magical book, bla, bla".

Lol, I hadn't considered that.

The charisma will be lowered in any case. Still deciding on the dex.

Don't forget that the stats would be about,
17-18 Heroic Proportions
19-20 Surpasses that of mortal men

Khadion using one of the tomes/manuals on himself would be agood idea (in BG 1 the manual of gainful exercise was in the shadow thieve's guild in Baldue's Gate )

[SConrad]

As I said, I'm still deciding.

Ragnar, you can tell me what you think when you've read Kh's background in the workroom later...

Brilliant, Ragnar.

But I don't get it why SConrad chose from the start such a high charisma. I read he was a handsome guy, had a lot of girlfriends in Athkatla, but why he needed for that a deva's charisma. Even with a 15-16 Cha, he could have won a mister title. SConrad, what were your reasons then ?

Kind of an inside joke for hardcore Tolkien fans...

See in the Silmarillion, what led to the downfall of Feanor (a powerful elf) was his hubris based on great Jewels he crafted, the Simrils. Much suffering and woe followed and the original dark lord Morgoth, who counted Sauron from Lord of the Rings as a lieutenant, rejoiced.

How ironic.

Hey, it's been a full month since we've had a post on here, how about an update?

[SConrad]

Check the current-update-thread...

Anyway, I and the others have had a lot of things to do lately, so currently, things are going a little slow. That'll be taken care of, of course.

[Shed]

Wow. That wasn't even ONE sentence. There is not a single piece of grammar in there.

I really don't mean to insult, but it does make whatever you are trying to say SO much harder to read and understand. Seriously .

:edwin: is good, certainly, but that doesn't mean lots of PCs couldn't beat him. In any case, why should someone want an NPC better than their PC? It would detract attention from the main storyline and unbalance the game.

Personally I think having two 18 stats for a young man is questionable, but I am prepared to accept it on account of his story. Also his other stats aren't all that good.
