    So far, I have tried out NPC flirt pack, Kelsey, Xan and now I'm trying out Tsujatha.

    I loved all of them (I dont know about Tsujatha yet because I just started!) but is there any other good NPC mods out there for my female PC to romance? I've tried solaufein but didn't like it very much...

    Also, can someone recommend a good female NPC? I dont usually play male PC so they dont have to be romanceable. Just looking for someone new with good banters and stats.

    It doesn't introduce a mod NPC, but the Edwin romance does (funnily enough) allow you to romance Edwin, which you may find worth a shot. There's also Kivan if you feel like playing an elf. And there's the Imoen romance, althoguht that depends on how you view her- some gamers can't get over seeing her as CHARNAME'S sister.

    As for female NPCs, I'm keen on Fade. You'd probably have to romance her to fully experience the mod, but I thought she was really good.

    Unfortuately Female PC's get the short end of the stick so to speak.

    Female PC:
    Solaufein (18/21 18 10 18 10 16 Fighter/Mage) is a good romance mod for any pc.

    Kivan (18/12 17 14 10 14 8 Archer) Is a Good npc and Romance mod for an elven PC. Otherwise the Deheriana restoration arc is good.

    Chloe (13 25 16 12 12 14 Kensai) is an interesting NPC with a romance for Female PC's or Imoen)

    Male Pc:
    Saerileth (16 14 12 14 17 18 Cavalier) is a good NPC and romance (if you don't mind a little lolita factor).

    Fade (14 19 10 16 11 16 Thief) is also great as Decados said. The only fault I have with the Fade romance is that it is currently SoA only, the ToB portion is supposedly being worked on right now.

    Amber (12 19 15 14 12 8 Fighter/Thief) is interesting as a romance option, she might be considered a bit of a Fade copy (or vice versa) but she has the option of being romanced by player 2 in a multiplayer game.

    Tashia (11 19 15 16 14 12 Sorceress) is a decent romance and an alternative to using kelsey for a sorcerer.

    Non Romanceable:

    Keto (11 15 16 15 9 15 Bard) is a Good NPC for banters and interjections. No romance though.

    Auren Aseph (16 15 16 13 12 15 Fighter) is an interesting NPC to have, she has a romance path with Nalia.

    Yasraena (18/97 18 12 13 12 16 Fighter) is a good NPC, some say a bit overpowered but fun none the less.

    I just finished a party with Yasreana. She is a little bit overpowered, but as a good drow who is very unfamiliar with surfacers and surfacer culture, her dialogs have a rather interesting point of view to them. Regardless, a strong short sword dual wielding fighter is an interesting alternative. But when you are considering your PC, just remember that even though she starts with her own custom short swords, they're hardly awesome weapons and you'll want to have her wield better short swords as you move thru the game, and there are only so many good short swords. So, it might be a bit difficult to have two characters who both focus on short swords.

    Something else to consider about Yasreana is that a male PC will have a crush on her for a while, but will get no response from Yas. Her heart lies elsewhere.


    Saerilith might be an interesting alternative. Aside from the aforementioned lolita factor, I'm also a bit bothered by the concept of a 15 yo being a veteran paladin. It might be one thing if this was BG1 and you were encounting Saerilith as a young, inexperienced pally. But I have a hard time envisioning her as a veteran (starting level at about 8 or 9) at 15 years old. And while I find that her less than perfect physical stats seem in keeping with a 15yo, I have a hard time believing that a 15 yo would be nearly as wise as her stats seem to indicate. All this said, I have no doubt whatsoever that she's a well written NPC.
