    Jaheira last? Uh-oh ... Beren's gonna be pissed when he sees that! :shake:

    And she's probably my favourite, too... Aerie is the planet's most annoyingly insecure, needy & whiny girlfriend. It's like she was scientifically created to exhibit all of these traits to ridiculous excess. It's as though when they took her wings, they got her spine too. And, what's more, she never stops emotionally blackmailing you about it! Honestly, she reaches such depths that I wonder whether Lawful Good is really the right alignment...

    As for Viconia ... well, she's just every adolescents' (wet) dream. Easy 'n' evil. Hops into bed nice and quickly, then torments you. But she is at least consistent - up until she shifts alignment, of course. Which was kind of an obvous thing to have happen, but never mind. Although she does provide a romance option for Half-orcs, which is a good thing.

    The only quibble I have with Jaheira is that the romance kicks off before Khalid's body is even cold, but hey-ho. Otherwise, it's by far the most entertaining, IMHO.

    I would've picked Viconia if only her romantic ending was not so...sad (if she's your b***, she WILL die!).

    I dunno about Jaheira's age...but she MIGHT be a MILF's fantasy...anyhows, anyone noticed that she's the only "romantic option" who doesn't get knocked up? Must've been those herbs. Also, unless you you the CLUA console, Jaheira's romance takes a LONG LONG time to finish. > :p The good thing is, she's more combat friendly, compared to the other two.


    Aerie reminds me of those whiny high school girlfriends...but it gets interesting when she announces she's knocked up and you ahve the option of dropping your jaw in shock.
