    Well first off, thanks to the guys who helped me in the Tanner Murder topic, (it wasn't even mine and I got help!!).

    But ok, I made an evil party just to try that out and right now I've done the quest bit by bit increasing my rep, I talked to the guy in the Umar Hills and all of that is going great, but I'm missing a sixth party member!! I had Minsc, but I had to kill him, (because I wanted to kill Valygar and I wouldn't allow a witless dolt like minsc to stop me from having my reward!!).

    Right now it is:
    Me - Kensai/mage nuetral Evil
    Me - Assasin/Fighter(dual) Chaotic Evil
    Edwin
    Korgan
    Viconia

    If anyone can give me any suggestions on who would be cool to have as a sixth evil member, (because I can't remember who else is evil in the game!!!!), thanks!!!

    Edwin, Korgan, and Viconia are the only three evil aligned joinable NPCs in the SoA portion of the game. Now, the party you have covers all the bases you need covered. You've got an Assassin to handle your theiving. Edwin is an extremely powerful mage, and you've got a back-up spell chucker. Viconia can handle your healing. And Korgan is a great tank (and can get support from both of your created characters). Frankly, you don't 'need' another character. If you want to use one, then you have a few options.

    Either create another character of your choosing, take someone who isn't evil, but is something like CN. Jan & Haer Dalis' are CN, and you can make sure Anomen becomes CN. Personally, I don't particularly care for any of those three.

    Another option is to just take little sis along when you save her. Even tho you're evil, she is effectively family. Course, this makes you a VERY Mage-heavy party, but what the hell?

    You could dl and install one of the mods that add evil characters.

    Since you've posted in the SoA board, I'll assume you either don't have ToB, or don't intend to play through to it. So my only comment is that if you DO have ToB and intend to play, this problem will ultimately be more easily resolved.

    My suggestion? Don't add a 6th character. Keep it open to pick up and drop characters as you see fit. Ultimately, the 5-man party you have will be MORE than strong enough to get your through SoA.

    Okay, I do have ToB installed, but I don't plan to play through ToB, since it's kind of boring, (Epic levels get boring in P&P too because everything is WHACK).

    The reason I want the 6th member is because I feel icky not having six, since I've always played that way. But I guess since I have 4 characters that can tank, and 3 that can 'magic it up' it should be ok. My assasin has been doing a good amount of damage with the X5 backstabb, (I was going to go to X7 before I dualed, but I got mad at how slow she was leveling :p ). So thanks I guess, oh, and I didn't realize I could make Anomen CN :p , I'll bring him into the part solely to screw up his life, cuz he does annoy me eh?

    Yep, just... encourage him to listen to his father after Moira's death. DO that, and he'll eventually be a different Anomen. Actually, if you do this, he ultimately becomes a lot less annoying than he used to be. He doesn't STOP be annoying, but a lot less.
