Adrian_NPC VS Sirene-NPC-for-BG2-EE

Adrian is great, especially with Jaheira. The two interact so much that he has a different epilogue depending if they're both in the party (and no, they don't romance each other if that's what you're thinking).

Adrian - a rare example of a well-written evil character. He's bent on power, yes, but he's civil, eloquent, and flirtatious at times. Atypical but - I thought - pretty good. Edwin romance - added romantic track for Edwin, a self-centered and sarcastic wizard. Surprisingly touching at points, and genuinely funny at others. Angelo - Angelo is the epitome of a henchman, basically amoral and willing to do the PC's dirty work. Pursuing him romantically is a terrible idea, as he's only too willing to point out. Keldorn - added romantic track for Keldorn, an older paladin with family troubles who's deeply unsure about falling in love again. Kivan. Returning character from BG1. Kivan is a grim ranger bent only on revenge. Lots of angst at first, lots of sweetness down the road. Starts out mostly as friendship + unrequited pining. I haven't played this one in years, but I remember liking it.

Sirene for BG2: tiefling paladin of Ilmater. Romance option, no race or gender restrictions. See BG1 section for full description.

Sirene: BG1 and BG2 (or via this site)

Wlw romances: Isra (and her sequel link) - she's a paladin of the goddess of love and beauty. Nice if you like knightly types who don't take themselves too seriously, and I like the pacing as well - a little flirting in the first game, and an opportunity to seriously pursue one another in the sequel. Probably my favorite wlw character I've found. Sirene (and her sequel link) - more on the angst-ish side. She's a paladin as well, but she has demonic heritage. Again, nice pacing, good if you enjoy a slow burn kind of romance. Sarah - Sarah is a sweetheart, honestly. A bit shy but well-meaning, and though she's not devoid of angst or sorrow she's a refreshingly normal character.
