    I don't know if it's possible, but you could try grabbing Wrath in Qintarra. He would be fun to have around if you grabbed Jormund as well.

    Someone (perhaps Shadygrove) figured this out and there have been all sorts of discussions here and at other forums. If you go to the official Arcanum site, you'll see quite a few involving vorpal sheep.

    Wrath is a force mage, & probably has enough WP to resist, as does the force mage in the sewer. I have a party with Lianna delPar, the mage from T'sen-Ang, Tollo Underhill, & a few others.

    Garic Stout is a flaming asshole & deserves to die slowly by Baneful Guantlets.

    ive now also got these:

    loghair thunderstone (king of wheel clan in exile)
    don throgg (half orc leader person)
    m'in gorad (leader of dark elves)
    killian drake (gamble master)


    i tried alexander the acolyte loads of times because he looks pretty cool but he has high wp, anyone know how to get him i tried stun , weaken, and many other things, fate points dont work either.

    also stringy pete would be cool but you cant cast dominate will on him, anybody know a way i can get him?

    Mental spells are resisted by WP. There are a number of magic users that you cannot acquire that way due to WP = 20 or 21.

    I do believe that technicly the undead have no mind to mess with. Once he is dead, try a scroll of Create Undead. Quench Life has no effect on the undead either. A friend was running one of my PCs through the Stringy Pete battle. Not being familiar with the Black Necro school, she kept wondering why this one spell had no effect. :lol:

    There seems to be a major difference between the avarage undead & pete & crew. Curse effect?

    hey backstabber......

    You get points from your followers but only about 10% of points that you would get if you did the hitting.

    I've done it both ways now and I think I kike it better with more members. I just travel the wastlands with turnbased off and let then go after the baddies when I run into them.

    If you level up toooo quickly, the game gets too easy, as if it isn't already.....hehehehe

    the leader of the Bekodaan lizardmen
    Geoffrey tarroland ashe
    Gilbert bates (have to resurect him quite often!)
    H.T Parnell

    i think the best of my followers are
