    I have been thinking lately. I find Anomen a petty powerful character. It's just that he loves to boast. So why not someone create a mod to change his character or personality to a better one? Or does the "banter pack" mod solve this problem or is there already other mod/s that does this?
    Thanks in advance!

    I have always seen it that you take the good with the bad, like anyones personality and attributes.

    If you 'doctor' the NPC's then I think you lose something.

    And you may as well play as 6 characters created by you via multiplayer options.

    EDIT - That said, if Aerie whines one more time I swear she will end up flame grilled and covered in the colonels secret blend of herbs and spices! ;)

    I agree with Chelsea. If you want a group of disgustingly obebient yes-(wo)men, just start a multiplayer game and create 6 of them.

    It's the NPCs dinstictive personalities that add so much to the game, even the one's you don't particularly like--that's called "conflict," and it's the thing great stories are made of.

    Honestly, as much as you may not like Anomen, I think you'd miss him if he were to become too agreeable.

    Slight spoiler ahead....


    And another thing, depending on how you interact with mister Delyrn over the course of the game, there is an opportunity for him to learn some humility along the way.

    Yeah he can be boastful, and I cring sometimes when he says "what is it NOW" as i click on him. But hey that's the way he is.

    Later on he does have some kind words to say, and he starts to live up to him boastful nature.

    For me he took out the Omar Temple and Bodhi's laire almost single handedly after giving him just a few items. Class.

    He did the same for the vamps prison in TOB too.
