It looks like her game sprite went a got a hair dye job as well as a clothes one.

RobinStarwing · 06-19-2010, 09:02 PM

SEE! She should of been named Lina Inverse! Lina's sorcerer name is Lina The Pink! =P Kidding but Mary Worth does well it seems.

Let's get a quest before the good ones are taken!

Thadius · 06-19-2010, 10:47 PM

Okay, look, you're going to have to get back behind that wall.

It's a little late for that.

Argh. Fine, at least get in that inn.

Hey that's Winthrop! Go get a sling and a full compliment of bullets off him, whydon'tcha?

Why?

Because while I respect your Magic Missile, you can only cast it once. Regular missiles will be slightly more numerous for the time being.

Better. Hey, who's that chap in the corner?

Some wandering mage by the name of Firebeard or somesuch.

Well go talk to him. Might have something for you to do.

Whaddya know, busywork for you! 's a matter of fact, you go take a jog around the place and get some odd jobs from people.

Why, what are you going to do?

I've got a splitting headache at the moment. You're not helping it, to be honest. I'm going to figure out what you did to the fourth wall and fix it if I can.

Aww, that's no fun!

Shaddup and jog.

Sure thing!

Wait, so her missing book is here and the cow hasn't eaten it yet?

Um, isn't that why you have cats around?

Oh geeze, not another one. Hey, what happened to the first guy, anyways?

Well something tells me that this bed set apart from the others, or rather, the chest in front of it has Hull's things in it.

That'd be logic.

Hey, you're back!

Yup, and you're not dead. I thought for sure you were going to get some excitement by now. Maybe I could start anew with a thief or someone with a few less morals. In fact, I'm pretty sure you were supposed to see some action by now...

Um...

Yes, she actually stabbed a guy with her staff hard enough to cause a small fountain of blood...

...twice. Both times were one-hit kills.

I don't know what you're talking about. It's been fairly boring for me so far.

Ah well. What's your to-do list look like anyways?

First I have to get that scroll still. Then there's this lady who lost her book, a guy who found her book in a haystack by his cow, a guy who's hungover and needs his sword because he can't leave his post, and he kindly dropped a hint I'll be needing the antidote potion in the same location I find his sword in. There's also a building full of rats, but I'm pretty sure that's not my problem.

Wrong. Everything is your problem. We'll try to work in reverse order. Grab the sword and potion, then hustle over to the soldier.

Next?

Get your behind over here and grab that book you talked about.

Is that who I think it is? And if so, how did you trigger her?

Um...

Are you kidding me? You went in the main grounds to get to the hay bale? Ugh. She has the most annoying voice...

Hey! Unlike you she's a lovable rogue!

Whatever. Be kind if you have to, but get rid of her.

Asdfgh! You practically invited her along with you! This is gonna bite you in the ass, you know.

I fail to see how this could ever turn out to be a bad idea.

Um, why were you facing the wall...reading the scroll...of... I probably don't want to know, do I?

If I pay you a few gold, will you run along?

YES.

Finally. God, for someone with a wisdom of 18, you do take the most convoluted routes to get somewhere.

Clearly your wisdom is a scant three, otherwise you would know better than to argue with me.

Hey, just take the oddly-placed key item and take it to where it needs to be. While you're at it, return the scroll as well.

Score! Money! Go sell that puppy!

Have you no heart? This is probably one of her most cherished possessions!

Not where money is concerned!

FUCK. I forgot he was the one to do that.

Now what, O omnipotent one?

You want to play that game? Really? Okay, pick up a quarrel of bolts from ol' Windy there.

But I cannot use-

NO ARGUING.

But I already did-

Just talk to the deaf farmer again. He probably was fishing some wax out of his ears.

See? Money and experience. Now head back to the bunkhouse.

Why do I need to-

NO QUESTIONS.

Huh.

See?

Okay, I'm slightly sorry I doubted you.

Very nice. Take a look at that dagger, whydon'tcha?

I'm not sure if it has to do with your charisma, your gender, or what. I don't think I got this dagger on my other playthroughs, but it's the first magic bit of equipment we've gotten so far.

Oooh, shiny dagger. I assume you want me to sell i-

Nah, keep a hold of it. But in the meantime you are forgetting something, aren't you?

Oh no. You can't be serious.

Get in there.

Okay, four-

Five. You can't see one right now, but he's there.

SIX rats. This shouldn't be too hard.

Whaddya know, it wasn't!

One's still alive. Hold still.

Methinks there's something else you're forgetting. Isn't there a house of healing in the southeast corner?

Yeah? So?

Go charm them out of a potion. You'll be needing it, trust me. And it shouldn't be too hard.

Huh. Something tells me to be offended at how easily they gave this up to a pretty smile, but hey, free potion. Are you done running me around yet?

Yeah I think it's nearly time.

Prepare to kiss your home good-bye.

Did you ever figure out what happened to that wall anyways?

Yeah I patched up what I could. Unfortunately you'll still be able to talk to me directly, but I doubt anyone else ever will be.

Fine by me.

Next time on Baldur's Gate: Death.

Grimpond · 06-19-2010, 10:56 PM

Oh man, looking good!

Yrcrazypa · 06-19-2010, 11:26 PM

Huh, figured I could skip the screenshots, given how many times I've played through the opening, but you showed me a few things I've always missed. Like the +1 dagger.

Daimo Mac, The Blue Light of Hope · 06-20-2010, 12:05 AM

Oh...oh god.

She looks likes Mauve.

Haha, she does, sorta! XD

Liking this so far, Thad!

greed · 06-20-2010, 04:16 AM

So you're doing this without Tutu or Trilogy? Huh. Man the walking speed alone would do my head in.

Anyway, liking it so far.

Osterbaum · 06-20-2010, 12:02 PM

She should've totally been named 'Menkat'. Props to anyone who knows/remembers what that means.
