Kitanya NPC for BGII (WIP)

A mod hosted by Spellhold Studios for Baldur's Gate II: SoA and ToB (classical games)


Kitanya_NPC

Author: Rastor
Mod Website: Spellhold Studios

 

Note: This mod was first released at RPGDungeon.net. As this site is no more available since many years, it was time to save it from disappearance. It is now hosted at Spellhold Studios with Rastor authorization.

 


Overview

Kitanya is a friendly, chaotic good elvish Wizard Slayer with lots of dialogue (over 3,000 lines at present). She has at least two banters with every Bioware NPC and many more with most.


Compatibility


Installation


Components

The installer includes the following components. The number of each is the component DESIGNATED number which gives it a fixed install position and allows automated installers to specify component choices.

0. Kitanya Conversation/Romance mod for BG2
(Main component)

This component installs the NPC herself. It includes all of the new dialogues, sounds, spells, items, etc.

1. Wizard Slayer Bugs Fix

Bioware made a mistake when coding the "Protection from..." scrolls that are found throughout Baldur's Gate II. Although the descriptions say that wizard slayers cannot use these scrolls, they actually can. This bug is not fixed by either the official patches or by Baldurdash. Installing this component will fix the problem. After installing this component, wizard slayers will no longer be able to use these scrolls (as it should be).

2. Flaming Sword for Kitanya
(requires the main component)

One Pixel Productions introduced new graphics for a flaming sword a few years ago. It applied the flaming graphics to swords included with the original game, but not mods. This component adds these new effects to Kitanya's flaming sword. Please note that this component requires that 1PPv3.0 Flaming Swords be installed.
