Romancing Viconia

Tanoch Thas'ala · 05-21-2002, 12:01 PM

..Okie, I made a Cavalier, Tristam, to see what the Romance hub-bub was about...when I played my female Wizard Slaying Tanoch, there was no way in hell I was going with Anemone.

So I first get Jaheira, who I don't want, then dumped Aerie, and now have Viconia.

At one point, after several banters, I went to Windspear Hills and was out side the cabin of Windspear, and Vic asks me something if I find her attractive, at first I repsonded that yes I did, and she got pissed and told me to leave her alone. Thinking that wasn't right, I reloaded and chose to say something like "vicy you don't need me to stroke you ego, you know what you look like.." Vicy then said something about me looking at her out the side of my eyes and that she would do better in showing me more of herself...this is what I assume as the right path?

Can some one spoil me a bit and let me know if I am on the right path...

The "correct" answer was that you find her attractive!
Most of Viconia's romance dialogues end with her making you feel like you said the wrong thing!
To be sure check the ViconiaRomanceActive via the CLUAConsole.
If it is 3 then you have lost your chance!

i whant to chek if my romance is active to, what is the complet cheet to check thet?

Telling her she is beautiful is probably the best response, but the one you chose is also acceptable, the romance is still active. The thing to remember with Vic is to mix up your responses. Be complimentary and also play a little hard to get. Just don't tell her to get lost, or to leave you alone etcetera, if you want the romance to continue. Also don't let your popularity get too high.

Pretty much. I think one of her dialogues tells you how she slept around.

I think calling Vic a whore is a little too strong. Vic is a Drow, and in her society the women are the dominant leaders. Better to look at it as a role reversal. We generally don't think of men who have multiple lovers as whores, so why view Vic as such when in her culture it is the status quo?

Well said. That can be applied IRL as well. And I do believe that Viconia tells the Player charcater these things to try to scare him off. Viconia has little trust in surface Beings. She automatically assumes the PC has other motives. By telling the PC these things, she is trying to guage his reaction upon hearing them. Body language is very telling in what a person is thinking..

However Viconia is a little on the "extreme" side of a relationship isn't she?
