Kaltia, sweetie, you can't be serious about Romancing that pig. It really drains all of the pleasure out of the game to have him there shouting, "What is it this time?" I love talking to him at the Copper Coronet, and asking him where he got that ridiculous accent.

Calaethis and Kaltia, I am going to start posting my second novel in the Books forum, so, look out for it. Thank you for the compliment, Caelethis, you are sweet. (hugs)

Galadria-
You have inspired me to play a female character. I can gaar-on-tee that there will not be a romance without adding a mod first. Yes I do know that it is spelled Anomen and not Amonen. Just thinking about him makes me functionally dyslexic.

PARANOIA ALERT!

Anomen is the only character that female characters can romance. Coincidence; I think not. It is a programmer plot. Big A's every phrase and action is condescending towards women if not outright nauseating. His voice can lead to migraines and has been known to cause cancer in cute cuddley cittens. I mean kittens. This can only mean that the programmers wanted everyone to be ANTI-anoMEN (ANTI-MEN). Would a programmer go to such lengths for such a poor pun?
They put programmers in windowless cubicles for a good reason.

LOL, Antryg, I think that you are onto something there. Consider the list of all the great NPC's of all time, compiled by me:
Imoen
Viconia DeVir
Annah (from Planescape:Torment)
Fall-from-Grace (ditto)
Nalia D'Arnise
Sharwyn (from Neverwinter Nights)
Aribeth de Tymarande (ditto)

All are great, IMHO. All are romanceable to one degree or another. All are female. Coincidence? As you say, I think not!

Well, Nalia's only romanceable if you have the Mod. But I agree, there has been far too much emphasis on "male gamers" and not enough on the female. Bioware and other gaming companies need to wake up and smell the proverbial coffee, that not all gamers are 14-19 year old males with raging hormones.
