    OKay of all of the portraits availlabe out of the box of Baldur's Gate Throne of Bhaal, wich is the one who look like you? Or the one who was the most attracting for you
    Me I'd say: NONE, alas that's true.
    But for unknow reason Eldoth's one is always my char's portraits.

    [​IMG] Branwen is probably most like me, but still, it isn't that close.

    HaerDalis' is actually so close, and yet quite far.

    I'm half Native American, and I usually wear my long dark hair braided. Once in a while though, I get seized by an 80s metal-head mood, or I'm just plain lazy about my hair during my days off. My face is somewhat close to HaerDalis' as well, though my features aren't as sharp as his are.

    In any event, I use internet images of Sorak, from his cover art on Simon Hawke's books, as custom portraits for my elf fighter/mage. Much the same comparison involved with HaerDalis' applies here as well.

    Edwin's portrait form BG1 is the closest to looking like me. None of the BG2 portraits look anything like me though. :rolling:

    Kivan's portrait is the closest (but not that close), but then again maybe Bodhi... i'm quite pale also. :lol:

    I would look most like Montaron if he should grow some hair and change his ears.

    I can't really say that any of the portraits look like me. But I think that Ajantis is the nearest...

    Yay, my 700th post :D

    A little uglier BG Jaheira, with longer hair and glasses.

    The human Fighter from BG1 in full plate that is not attached to a charictor is probably the closest to my actuall looks.

    Kivan from BG1 is eerily close to what I really look like. So much so that my girlfriend asked if it was a self-portrait I'd made once when she saw me playing around with it in Photoshop. No cooky face paint, though.

    I would have to say Anomen is closest, but still pretty far!

    The only portraits I ever liked was Keldorn's in BG2 and Eldoth's in BG1.
