    [​IMG] Is it possible to somehow get both Edwin and Minsc? Tricking Minsc or something?

    Get Minsc, get Dynaheir, have Dynaheir die in combat, then recruit Edwin. It *should* work, but I haven't tried it myself.

    Edwin offered to join my party after I rescued Dynaheir, but I just killed him.

    [​IMG] I rescued Dyna, then recruited Edwin, then recruited Minsc. No major problems...

    Or leave Dynheir in a building you don't plan to return to, exit the building, and she will stay inside. Of coruse leave all the other party members outside. I believe Minsc will not leave if this happens. Also you could always have her turned to stone by on of the bassalisks(or however you spell it). It's a good comprimise; she's still alive and Minsc is still in the party.

    Wooooohoooo!!! I am the almighty cheetah tamer. Follow the way of the master cats :D

    Or you could just watch Dyanhier and Edwin fight each other just for the pure entertainment value of seeing who is the fittest to join your group.

    Or try that: Recruit Minsc & Edwin, go to the gnoll fortress and leave Minsc in the cave where yyou find the tome of whatever.
    Then go upstairs and allow Edwin to kill Dynaheir - Minsc will leave your group then. After seeing Edwin killing her, go down to Minsc and let him join the party again - he knows nothing about that :D

    My actual noble pally however would never accept an evil mage in his party and so I actually took Dynaheir. She´s noot too bad a mage and her paperdoll is nicer than Edwin´s ;)

    in the gnoll fortress area there is a cave where you can find a tome that rises one of your stats, dex or so, by 1. I think it´s worth it.

    The tome boosts your charisma.

    You're right Crawl. To get rid of one character in an NPC-pair without loosing the other, just walk the unlucky one into an house or other confined area, and remove her. As long as you never enter that sub-map, you'll never have to care about that NPC any more.
    This will work with any NPC-pair that I've tried.
