*spoiler* why I hate Yoshimo

    [​IMG] Who IS Tiax, anyway? And how do you get him in your party?

    (Sorry, but I'm always curious and baffled :borg: )

    You don't. Not unless with some custom mod off SP. He was an NPC in BG1. He's one of the nuts in Spellhold in BG2. ;)

    Tiax ruled!!

    He's like one of those shrmipy, little kids out on the soccer field that have like, *NO* fear of anyone.

    It's scarry if you actually see it happening, real time.

    Other than that, I didn't really get all that attached to Yoshimo. I thought he had some good witticism's, just like Shralp, but without Viconia's sultry voice. The tree hugger one still gets me. Especially after I saw how it was a reference to one in BG1.

    Anyways, I swapped him out for Imoen without much regret. Although, I *was* miffed a little since I didn't have a choice in the matter and neither did he. It's always the soldier on the front line that takes the brunt of criticism.

    Personally, I prefer the female voices.

    "Danger! Danger!"
    "Pull up! Pull up!
    "Warning. Warning"
    "Master Armed."
    "Minimum Range."

    Errrr.

    Unless it's the Icewind. Then I want Conan the Barbarian, crushing your enemies, etc.

    [​IMG] Tarol'azh -

    Tiax was a gnome illusionist that your party meets when entering Baldur's Gate. In many ways he is a 'Jan Jansen' type of character - fun and weird as hell.

    Tiax thinks he will rule the world - that he is the most powerful being to walk Faerum! He is completely insane - even more so that Xzar. The best part about him is the strange and often hilariously demented things he would say.

    "Tiax rules!"
    "You little monkey-spank."
    "Did Tiax tell you that he shall rule?!"
    "When Tiax rules - briches shall not ride up so wedge-like"

    ...

    "Hey man! Yoshimo sucks. He's a dirty, rotten, good-for-nuthin' traitor..."

    Er, ... sorry to say this, but that describes my whole party!
    We are not a lovely bunch. :evil:

    [​IMG] Like I said, he was loyal to the end, to Irenicus, that is. If he betrayed Irenicus he would have been disloyal. You should have read the instruction manual. Yoshimo's profile hints that he will betray you, if you look at it carefully.

    BTW, nothing to do with Yoshimo, but is there a way to save Tiax, Dradeel, and the rest of the gang? Everytime I get to Spellhold they automatically die in the last battle. If you have saved them, what do they say?

    You can't save them. It's a scripted event, they all die.
