Saw him too. Interacted a little bit. He's playing a full- of-himself dwarf who thinks himself a ladies man and has no respect for the town laws. Wish I could have thought of some way to make fun of his name, but since he never gave it to me in character, was kinda hard to say anything about it. :roll:

NWN2 is needlessly restrictive compared to NWN1. The things that didn't need changing they changed and the things that did need changing they left as they were or made worse.

Sounds like I need to make a lvl 12 female, lawful evil arcane magic user and hang around town a lot more. :mrgreen:

Not sure if anyone mentioned these ones yet:

- Stormy Day
- Greensleeves
- Frigga of Valhalla

The first two beg the question: what were the parents drinking/smoking when they named their child? :roll:

Stormy Day? Don't knock it too much. I had a dog with that name. Really. And it's close enough to the name of a friend's daughter - Autumn Storm.

Greensleeves, I believe, has posted on the boards.

Frigga? Well, I suppose it's a bit cheeky naming yourself after a goddess, but it's been done here before.

Pfft i had a friend in High school whose name was Misty Gale.

Thats part of the fun of being a product of the 80's parents could name their kids in the midst of a cocaine binge!

Heh. Autumn Storm is a product of the late 90's.

It could always be worse, you could be one of Frank Zappa's kids... :wink:

Autumn Storm is a cool name! She's bound to be a super-hero!

I guess that it's not Frigga, which used to be a normal name up here in the north, but the real life reference to Valhalla which he found to be a problem with the name?

That would be my guess. Valhalla isn't anywhere that I know of in Dasaria, so the player would have to be referring to Norse mythology. That's the part that's really out of place.

I could create a Half Orc prostitute called "Valhalla".

That might get people asking questions about her.
