    [​IMG] Something really strange happened to me and a friend of mine when we were playing Baldur's Gate.
    We were fighting against this crazy mage in the graveyard of Nashkel when we saw a talking squirrel. After some clicking we killed it and this squirrel had a Ion Stone of Luck.

    That's an urban myth heh. I remember back then someone started the joke about the ioun stone and it got carried all over the net and everyone was killing squirrels from Beregost to Baldur's Gate, but no one actually found the stone.
    And in all my time working here at the site AND replaying the game, AND knowing the whole game inside out I've never seen it either.
    I looked through the item codes and couldn't find it there either, not even to create it through the console.

    So, until you can get me some proof of that I remain skeptic. Get me some screenshots and send em over to sorcerer -AT- sorcerers.net
    If it's true I'll post it on the site. Send me the pic of the stone in your inventory, of it equipped (where do you put it anyway) and it's description text.

    It seems that nobody believes me...snif snif,


    OK, I will try to find this squirrel again and this time make a screenshot. It may take some time, cause I gave my copy of Baldur's Gate to a friend of mine to get him hooked. Which of course, worked.

    Maybe he will get us to a dangerous place, where we will be ambushed, attacked, stealed killed and throw as food to a bunch of hysteric gibberling.

    Take the chicken back to the mage in High Hedge. The chicken is the mage's apprentice who had an accident with a polymorph spell. ;)

    But save before talking to the mage in the tower. Because he will try to transfrom the guy back into his original form and it does work all time. Sometime, he die in the process and you dont get the experience points.

    No treasure there except for the one Talanthyr can sell to you. He's got some great stuff... for a price.

    Nope, there's nothing. I screwed it up myself te first time too when I listened to the thief. Good thing I saved before so I could just reload. ;)

    I usually just pick his pockets and them sell him the potions I steal. What a loser. You'd think he'd check his pockets after someone sells him exactly what he is carrying.
