Ohh... Well...
13 October 2007 02:48It just occurred to me after I finally got around to swapping Jaheira out for Valygar so I could do the Planar Sphere quest, and realised that there's is only one female on this team now, and she's slated to be swapped out at some point so for a short while Merric's team has been totally male.
It kinda reminds me of my IDW1 game, where all the characters were female.
Imoen's going to be in a really special position, she'll be the only girl once I pick her up, and she'll be such right through to the end of the game because any swaps from then on with be for male characters. If that was how I saw it turn out (which it wouldn't, because fics don't have a restriction on team size) then Imoen would probably have something to say about it.
On other BG things, I think I have a character idea that I might use to play the Kelsey romance. Interestingly enough, it's a very old character idea I had ages ago but it never saw light of day due to my terrible lack of endurance for writing long fics.
The idea is, what if Gorion didn't rescue only one baby back when he first got CHARNAME, but got twins? Only the idea, as I thought it through, only one of the twins gets captured and held captive by Irenicus (and it was always the sister, even back when I first thought up the idea), so even the twin who wasn't captured isn't going through the same development of their powers - even in ToB they are behind their sibling and Imoen.
One irony of that idea was that I'd imagined them as both being blond, but the portrait I picked for Avarin (the male twin) I later discovered the colouring was all weird in the picture, because the character in question? Squall Leonhart. Very not blond.
It's not the only time that happened, the other one was a post-BG character in Narri-verse whose portrait is Karl Urban - another totally not blond guy (some of his roles notwithstanding).
Actually, there are a few pics in my portrait collection - old pictures, that is - that I didn't find out who they were of until I got into the Final Fantasy fandom. Lulu for example, Adel for another, and Rinoa, and Rikku, and Yuna... and fuck, I just found one that is Vincent fanart... oh, and Sapphire WEAPON. XDDDD
