Hi Calagari!

I'm from Virginia, too. (Hence the screenname!) Originally from Williamsburg, now in Arlington.

I just started IWD as well. NobleNick and Aerich's advice has been invaluable to me. Check out my previous posts on "Newbie Questions," "Rolling Characters", and "My Party - FINALLY." Great stuff and ultimately helpful to you, I hope.

I am what NobleNick calls a "power gamer" and I'm really excited to work my way through the game with my awesome party. I played through to the beginning of Dragon's Eye before starting over again with my new party so you are in good company. I know that in the long run, my do-over will be well worth while.

I highly encourage you to take advantage of this board as everyone is very kind and eager to share knowledge. I probably won't be able to help you too much right now, but at least we can compare notes as we work through thing simultaneously. I found IWD overwhelming at first, too, but hang in there...it gets better.

Oh yeah...install Heart of Winter and Trials of the Luremaster if you haven't done so already. Enhances graphics, items, and game play. Very cool.
