I never had decent Influence with him and couldn't manage to see anything suggesting making him a Jedi. I didn't even know you could, though. Thanks for the link.

I never managed to find his secret and won't be replaying for a while, so could someone spoil me? What's the truth about Disciple?

Thanks; perhaps I shall wait until after completion before reading the spoiler part of the post then.

So I am on my second play of KotOR II, and have gone for a female Dark Side character. I was male Light Side last time, so now I find I have Disciple in my party instead of Handmaiden. He seems to have some sort of big secret he's keeping, though my influence with him is fairly bad so although I can ask why he looks familiar and what his issues with the Jedi are I don't get any answers... What I'd like to know is are his secrets something I will find out eventually, or only if I can influence him enough? No actual spoilers, please. The second point concerns my Influence... I have CHR 18 and Dark Side Mastery. Yet several NPCs seem to hop about the alignment scale from Light/Neutral to Dark and back, even when not in the party and I don't think my influence with them has changed. It's happened with Bao-Dur, Atton and Disciple. Is this a bug or just intentional behaviour I don't quite understand? I have the Sith Lord prestige class, but this happened before I was one too. (Last time when I was Light Side I didn't experience these jumps in alignment, though I think most of the characters affected had Light Side tendencies anyhow. And I obviously didn't have Disciple.)

On the topic previously posed of restoration/engine change mods for other games, the "Unfinished Business" mod for Baldur's Gate II restores stuff cut before release (though on a less extreme scale than for this game). Additionally, there is a mod called BG1 Tutu which converts BG1 to the BG2 engine, allowing the higher resolutions, character kits and so on. Both can be found at http://www.pocketplane.net

Oh, heh. Nifty feature.

Oh. If it was removed due to derailment or something, could someone post what it was about?

I was just reading the thread this poll is about... and it seems to have vanished. Erk. Anyone know where it is/what happened?

Volourn was at BIS/IPlay too. As for Kreia... She mentions perhaps Revan became Dark Lord of the Sith because he had to. Perhaps there was a similar thing with her behaviour? (trying to avoid spoilers)

^That's right. I didn't realise you were around here, aVENGER.

I don't remember offhand, but it's not terribly amazing. It's more an RP thing than an uber-powerful weapon (since ToB has plenty already).

Um... have I missed something?

By chatbox do you mean something like an IRC channel?

There is a Planescape: Torment TC in the making called Vengeance. You can find out more about it here: http://www.planescape-vengeance.net/
