    There are some - all of them are race-class-alignment-skill based.

    Meaning that you have to meet a certain criteria to get the quest or a different dialogue option.

    Yeah. You either want a really, really good mix covering all the races and classes, or you have to play through twice with different parties to get all the quests and dialogues.

    I've not ever come across anything that is both race and class oriented. Like you *have* to have a dwarf cleric. It's either a dwarf, or a cleric.

    Has anyone come across anything that is more specific than just one trait?

    In the mindflayer citadel you have to be at least a 13th or 14th level Duergar fighter in order to create the Duergar Forged Doom axe +3 with the anvil. This weapon is also available in HoF (Barud gives it to you when you clean out the monsters in the river caves) but it is pretty powerful for normal mode.

    If you work the anvil with other races/classes:
    1) Duergar with less than 13 levels of fighter - Duergar Axe (+1 with improved crit) like the one Barud gives you to wipe out the monsters in the River caves.
    2) Any other Fighter (6th levels or higher) - +1 Battleaxe
    3) Any other class - Masterwork Axe
    4) If you take the axe off the anvil as it is, then you get a regular battleaxe.

    "Duergar" is another name for gray dwarf.

    In my opinion duergar is the worst race in the game. Their stats are horrible, they don't get good special abilities, they have light blindness and they lose 2 levels. :mad: Drows are much better.
