    What is FF7 and who is Sephiroth? Maybe I'm not awake yet, but I don't recall him in SoA.

    Ok, now I'm really confused. What does FF7 have to do with SoA and this guy named Sephiroth? Or is he from FF7 as well? (If so, then I will resist the temptation to break the New Addition to Forum Rules, and let the mods take over.)

    He means how will he make Sephirot from Final Fantasy 7 as a character in BG2. No need for moderating here.

    Final Fantasy 7 is an RPG on the PS. The FF series has an extremely huge following around the world and it's following grows each time a new game is produced.(Great games by the way)

    Sephiroth is just one of the more memorable villains of the series.

    Back to the charater build:

    There is nobody who looks like him. Not even remotely. After all, how many character models can there be of a person weilding a katana three times their height?

    @ Velve
    Hmm, you may be right about what he means; his wording kind of threw me a bit. Maybe the rules need to be changed again to prevent jerks like me from making the kind of smart-ass comments I made. My apologies to Calypso. :o .
    (Damn, I hate that smilie - looks more like a choirboy whose collar is too tight :nolike: )

    Actually, this just occurred to me - you can find a whole bunch of different portraits here; maybe one of these will be close. It's a lot to go through, but you said you have nothing better to do :D

    P.S. ditto on the welcome!

    Yeah, they have portraits here of various FF characters..........but they're from FF8 so they might not be what you're looking for.


    By the way, welcome to the boards.

    Just go to a FF7 fansite and get a pic of him and then use the portrait manager. As to getting a model that has long straight hair, a PHAT katana and his clothing might be harder.

    I would think the obvious way to go would be to create a male fighter/mage and use Shadowkeeper to make him a human with the Elven Mage avatar. It has the long flowing outfit Sephiroth wears, plus the long hair. Give him the default skin color, whitish-grey hair, and the darkest black as the main clothing color with either grey or blood red as the minor clothing color.

    Another way to go would be to give him the Elven Cleric avatar, and assign him a pure warrior class. The kensai maybe? Up to you. Up his proficiency in Katanas and give him Celestial Fury or a cool Katana you make yourself. Two-handed swords would work here as well.

    As far as the look, just find a portrait online of Dante from Devil May Cry. Shouldn't be too hard; I found 3 great ones just the other day. I can email one to you, if you like.

    To each their own I guess. I can't imagine why someone would want to put Sephiroth in BG. Or any other "omnipotent-in-his-own-world" character for that matter. Were Sephiroth in the game, he'd have to be able to solo dragons like no tomorrow, and a pitiful Irenicus or even the (will not spoil who) you meet in the end. And what's the point of that? Being the most powerful lone creature in the world of FF7, he's certainly the Forgotten Realms equivalent of a God, or at least very close.
