I miss Coran--he was so damn cool, and I loved his voice. The problem with bringing him back is explaining why he was a Fighter/Thief in BG1, and an Archer in BG2. Shar-Teel and Yeslick also deserve an encore. I've always loved Xan, Quayle, Edwin and Tiax for their soundsets, although I never could get over Tiax's poor stats. Xan would be nice to have again--and no, his Moonblade does NOT suck, even by ToB standards. Sure, it's only +3, but a +2 AC bonus and 50% Fire Resistance is nothing to sniff at.

When I hated an NPC, it was usually because of their voice: Khalid, Faldorn, Ajantis, and Alora. I can only be suffered to use Ajantis because of his good stats--I was GLAD when I kill his sorry ass in BG2. Too bad you can't tell it's him unless you have Keldorn.
