    im curious to know if anyone has tried taking out as much of arcanum as possible. by that i mean taking out all but creatures.. how would this make the final ending turn out.. im thinking of doing it because i took out shrouded hills, the wheel clan, stillwater etc and its quite fun ;-)

    well i've done some killing. tarant, stillwater, ashbury, caladon, ...

    though, after every murderous rampage i had to reload, since i don't like the whole alone in the world concept and i find the deserted cities rather boring and depressing.

    What would be cool would be if Kerghan actually took note of your omnicidial ways and didn't bother coming back since you've already destroyed all (humanoid) life but... don't think they thought of that.

    i don't think its possible because

    if you attack Nasrudin, he disintegrates you, or banishes you to the void, and also, i doubt you can kill the leader of Qintarra (that old elf, ravens mom i think)

    Well, with Nasrudin it's simple since you'd just make him the last person you kill, but you've got a point with the Silver Lady.

    She must be the toughest lv1 character ever conceived in a CRPG.

    Not so much to be afraid of really, I don't actually think she can get back at you, she just sits there looking her old ethereal self.

    If you want to take out everyone in Arcanum your character should be called Mr. Postman. He should use a machine gun.

    My first playthrough was with a halg-ogre with the rather eccentric name Balthazar Stormhammer. After that, a myriad of names really.

    Ignus Firebeard. He's a dwarven demolitions expert/pyromaniac. If he can't burn it down, he blows it up!

    The character I got furthest in the game with was named Stealin' McStealerson. You only get one guess as to what character type he was.

    Nothing all too memorable. I usually just use a RP name generator for all of my characters.
