Baldur's Gate LP - Community Edition
« on: June 16, 2011, 10:20:48 am »

I went ahead and got the Baldur's Gate boxset, and my LP itch happened to return once I fired up the character creator. So why not?
I will be asking you for which choices to make pretty much every time I get them. I might alter this if they're as common as several times in each conversation, though... this is a blind LP, so bear with me.

Part 0: Introduction

Spoiler (click to show/hide)
Ah, the intro screen. The best way to start of an LP... not much to do here though. How about we click that shiny "NEW GAME" button?

Spoiler (click to show/hide)
We get sent to character creation. This is where the awesome starts, people. I expect the best from you.

Spoiler (click to show/hide)
First, we choose the gender...

Spoiler (click to show/hide)
Then the race(ignore the magic douchebag to the right; I'll pick a good portrait once you've settled on gender and race).

The classes we get to choose are dependant on race. Only humans get to choose freely.
Now! Which gender, and more importantly, which race do we choose? HINT HINT: DWARF

Part 0.1: Introduction 2
Male gnome.
Female Dwarf.
Since I am too impatient to wait for a third vote, I'll have to flip a coin to decide which. Heads for gnome, tails for dwarf.

And the result is... tails! Female dwarf it is, then!

Spoiler (click to show/hide)
The only female dwarf portrait seems to have harlequin-style face paint. I guess I can live with that.

Spoiler (click to show/hide)
Next up is class. The available multiclasses are fighter-cleric and fighter-thief.

Spoiler (click to show/hide)
And then alignment. Note that lawful good is unavailable for thieves, and fighter-thieves can't have any lawful alignment.

Spoiler (click to show/hide)
Here's the stat roll screen. Tell me which stats you'd prefer, and I'll try to roll for good stats in those.

In the next update we finish the character gen.

Fighter, chaotic evil. Aim for Strength. BLOOD FOR THE BLOOD GOD!

LIES! We are dwarves! We are Chaotic Neutral Fighters!. Specialize in Axes or Warhammers.

Part 0.2: Introduction 3

And the people have spoken!

Spoiler (click to show/hide)
We shall be a chaotic neutral dwarven fighter...

Spoiler (click to show/hide)
...with might and endurance inherited from the greatest of dwarven warriors...

Spoiler (click to show/hide)
...as well as having a talent for carpentrymauling and decapitating goblins.
(I'm pretty sure I heard "axes and warhammers")

Spoiler (click to show/hide)
This should be an acceptable color scheme. And at least our character has a beard here, like proper dwarves.

Spoiler (click to show/hide)
For last, we have to decide on a name...

Spoiler (click to show/hide)
Too late. I already did.

Spoiler (click to show/hide)
And here is our character. Quite a thing, isn't she?

Tomorrow, we start out journey. I have no idea what's ahead of us.

I hope we get chased out of town by angry peasants for setting their king on fire.

Actually... nevermind this for a while. Didn't get home before 10 PM tonight, then there was a movie night stream, and tomorrow I'm having a LAN party with my friends...

Yeah.
