    [​IMG] The only race I know that can't have a romance is Half-Orcs.
    Are there any others?

    Lets see...
    Dwarves, Gnomes, Halflings, Half-Orcs, Humans, Half-Elves, and Elves.

    Which of the seven are no-nos for romance besides Half-Orcs?

    Extremist wrote a romance guide which answers all of your questions. It's on this site in the BGII section. Quick answer - dwarves also have no romance possibilities, Humans and Half-elves have all possibilities, other races have various limitations. Read the guide for more.

    Half-Orc romance with Viconia is allowed if you install the baldurdash fixpack.

    Oh Darn... :(

    I guess my evil thief will have to be a Half-Elf.
    I wanted that 19 Dex to start BG1 with. :cry:

    Even without the Baldurdash stuff the latest TOB patches fixed up Viconia. The race that missed out most was dwarves. Female gnomes and half-orcs also miss out. Otherwise there will be someone for the PC.
