Hey guys, things are moving along very well, and in order to maintain our current pace we need someone to help build NPCs. All the research has been done, so all you would have to do is create them based on the information I give you.
This is a rather large job, with something like 50-75 NPCs that need creating. The only two things I ask of you are:
-That you have free time enough that you can dedicate yourself to the job and complete it in a relatively short time.
-The other requirement, and much more crucial, is that the NPCs are of a high quality and that each have a unique and special look.
Lanessar has been working on them when he can but do to real life constraints he doesn't have the time to complete them on par with the other jobs. If you would like to be considered for the job please sign up here or shoot me a message and let’s talk.
Thanks so much.

R2, I have a set of Cult of the Dragon that were never implemented into THP that you can have. they are all different and equipped with full sets droppable custom items.
They are likely a challenge for level 20 or higher. lemme know if you want em.

Well mate, I am rather busy this week with work and moving, but if you still dont have anything I may be able to conjur up at least the NPC's and the look for them. It wont take me long but if you want scripts or them to say stuff, Ill leave all that to you guys.
But like I said its only if you cant find anyone else to whip them up quick for you guys.
Cheers

Progress Report on Baldur's Gate NPC's:
I have gotten all of the notable NPC's into the Toolset, and done the basics with them. This includes:
-Setting up faces, hair styles, tinting of skin/hair/eyes
-Setting of levels
-Setting of Alignment
-Classifying them for easy look up
I should be able to knock out descriptions and sizing soon enough, but thought I would post this up so someone at least knows I have been working on it. Ill keep posting reports till they are complete.
NPC's that will be released: 38 (not all NPC's on the list had levels, races, or alignments. Those without were not created)

Progress Report on Baldur's Gate NPC's:
-Random Sizing has been completed. Now NPC's will be shorter, or taller than normal as to be more realistic.
-Soth of the Black Rose will be added among the NPC's
-Custom Clothing for all NPC's should be added shortly
-I need to know what tags are being used for these NPC's or should I keep them the same as NWN2 defaults.
-These NPC's wont have any scripts or fancy stuff added into them, just the basic looks, names, sizing, and description, along with clothing. The rest Ill leave to the directors.
If I have a nice chunk of time tomorrow, I should have these all finished up and ready to send off.
Cheers,
Ice

-Soth of the Black Rose will be added among the NPC's Soth is a DL character, whom eventually moved to Ravenloft...I don't think he has any affiliation with the FR of any kind...not sure why he's going to be included here... |

Yeah well hes my favorite character really and I know we have an undead guild.
However one thing I did notice on the Baldurs Gate list of NPC's is that there are no races represented except for Human Males and Human Females. So I need to know if I should make any other random NPC's to represent other races or just leave it as Humans as the dominant race.

Another status report for the NPC's:
-All descriptions have been finished, they have been spell checked Via Word Perfect. They are roughly 1-2 paragraphs long. If you need further descriptions let me know but I figured that is what RP is for when they are used.
-I should be able to input the descriptions tomorrow before work
-I should be able to set the tags for the NPCs, set feats/attributes/skills and start creating (if not finish) the custom clothing for all the NPC's.
Once the above is finished they will be packed and shipped off to who ever needs them. Again if you need something else done to them, let me know while there is still time.
Cheers,
Ice

Progress Report on Baldurs Gate NPC's:
-Descriptions have been strapped to their NPC
-Customized armors have been given to the NPC's, these were whipped up quickly, and some look better than others. Their purpose was to make them look unique untill something better comes along.
-Tags have been changed for both NPC's and Items given to the NPC's. They are set up in the format of NPC_* and ARMOR_NPC_*
I should be able to finish them up tonight or tomorro at some point. All that is left is setting stats/skills/feats and turning them to plot.
