I saved the game before leaving the first town. Then I walked north to the trail. There was a scripted event and I ended in a fight with a delamgan and spores. The spores confused the mercenary fighter and rogue. My main char died. There were several bugs:

 

- Non of the character portraits changed color. I assume that the portrait should turn more and more red as you lose health.

My uncontious char gained a wound and you could see that the upper 25% had a different color. But the difference in color was very small and hard to see, much harder than a fatigued char in PoE1 and the portrait had natural color while the char had zero health.

 

- I loaded the file where my party stands at the exit of the village. When I pressed load the game was paused, 2 chars were charmed, the main char uncontious, two chars alive and I had killed at least one of the enemies. There was a 6th icon in the combat log and the combat log had the message: "Corpse has gained enough exp to gain a level". I clicked on the combat log and the message in the combat log disappeared, but the 6th icon remained. I loaded the same save again and the 6th icon is still there but no message is shown.

Edit: non of my chars had summoned a creature and I do not have a ranger or any other char with a companion in my party.

 

I think my mage cast bewildering spectacle, so one of the enemies might have been confused when I loaded the game, but I do not know it.

This is the message in the combat log.

 

Reloading did not remove the corpse from the party.

Returning to the main menu and loading the game did not solve it.

Closing the game completely and starting it again did not change anything too.

 

Edit:

Going to the inn and changing party members does not remove the corpse too.

Looks like I am stuck with him.

Here is the link to a save I made after this happened.

I solved the event peacefully before saving this.

Sorry, I do not have a save where the bug is there and the forest event is still there too.

In Beta version 3 the corpse has changed its name, but it is still in my party and wants to level up.
