Actually, someone used Infinity Explorer to make *.CHR files of some of the non-recruitable NPCs, many of whom have their own unique Appearances, such as Sarevok, Volo, and Ulcaster. Some of these CHR files can then be taken into Gatekeeper and brought back down to "normal" levels. For instance, I think I was able to remove Tethtoril's Magic Resistance, his insane AC and # of hitpoints, and give him the same stats as a normal Mage I'd created. I also tried to play as Tazok, but it always crashed my game when I was about to assign skin/hair/clothing colors. That was before I installed ToSC, though, it may be different now. I WAS able to play as an Ogre, though, but found there are a couple of disadvantages:
1) You're too big to fit through doorways.
2) Before you can take any other quests, you have to find Lord Faarquod to get your swamp back.
