Fantastic, can't believe I missed this! I'm definitely looking forward to replaying BG2 with Isra also it has been perhaps way too long since I played BG2 as any of the good alignments geeze

Great news, and congratulations for the hard work and effort!

Given that feedback is the lifeblood of any project (along with inspiration and too many long and sleepless nights proofing to count) - I wanted to leave a full-blown review for Isra, who long after having first played BG for the first time, is the only initial companion mod I'm going to have to write on as indispensible. First things first - a lot of good characters get characterized as perhaps too simple, or simple-minded; there's a reason so many choose to create characters of different alignment, and perhaps why the alignment system suffered it's eventual fate.

Isra defies those conventions.

Instead of feeling I was talking to a paladin, a lawful-good game mechanic one drags along to (hopefully) use any holy weaponry one just finds laying around, I enjoyed Isra's observations, her good sense of humor - and her educating me on Sune, who (since I haven't really followed up on the Forgotten Realms cosmology after the Wall of the Faithless concept kinda bummed me out) seems like a fascinating deity. Having her along the party was remarkably entertaining and somehow nostalgic, and I really hop that some day our paths might cross again - though it'll have to be awhile both for a sequel to be made (hopefully!) and me to prepare once again for the mental strain that is Irenicus' hidden base.

Congratulations, Rhaella - Thanks for writing a companion interesting enough to inspire me to actually finish BG1. It's not much - but again, thanks and congratulations!
