    How about you guys and girls do me a favour and also vote as energetically in non-BG2-NPC polls from now on, hmm? It's pretty sad that we only get a decent amount of votes in whenever I put up a poll about BG2 NPCs.

    But anyway, as expected, the romanceable female NPCs (plus Imoen), along with Minsc, are the most popular Baldur's Gate 2 NPCs that people would like to meet. The only major surprise there might be that substantially more people have voted for Minsc than for Jaheira... I know some people around here will be outraged by this turn of events, but the sheer animal magnetism that Minsc radiates (or is that Boo holding a miniature giant magnet?) cannot be so easily countered by druidic balance.

    After Jaheira we have the ex-nemesis Sarevok as the next most popular BG2 NPC that people would like to meet, followed by the Elminster-wannabe Edwin. The turnip-loving gnome Jan is the next NPC that people would most like to meet, followed by Haer'Dalis and Keldorn, both with the same number of fans.

    Next up is Yoshimo, followed closely by Nalia. Diving into obscurity after those two, we have Korgan, Mazzy, Anomen, Cernd and last (and least?), Valygar.

    I like Mazzy a lot, but I'm not sure I'd want to meet her. I chose Cernd instead, as a kindred spirit.

    I voted Sarevok for the simple reason that I fell in love with him in ToB.

    I voted for Keldorn. :pope:

    And I also vote in every other poll, too, because I'm a geek and proud of it, dagnammit! :alien:

    I voted for Imoen, I think I said it enough time in BG2 forums that I like her

    I voted for Korgan. He'd be a handy friend in a fight.

    It's strange how many people voted for Viconia...are you all such studs that you think you'd actually have a chance, or are you just spoiling for some merciless verbal abuse? :shake:

    I'd love to hear some of Jan's tales. :hahaerr:
    :mommy: For a while, anyway.
