All right, I'm pleased to report that all the existing posts have been imported, that I've managed to fix the issues with my install and that Sorsha is well and alive, having just returned unscathed from the Planar Prison. I'll be looking forward to following up with her progress here.

Sorsha, human bard: Part 20 - continued We rested and prepared for the Shade Lord. For sake of clarification, I'm not using the improved Shade Lord SCS component. Speaking of my BG2 install, I'll edit the first SoA entry to include the full details. Before even starting her buff routine...

Sorsha, human bard: Part 20 - continued We encountered shade wolves… skeleton warriors… shadow fiends and shadows… halflings (by the way thank you for the Arvoreen, Mazzy)… greater mummies… bone golems… more bone golems… and even more of everything! Both of our summons - Ras and the...

Sorsha, human bard: Part 19 - continued As Sorsha is not best suited for killing vast numbers of trolls, we navigated though the most of the Druid Grove under invisibility, only stopping to remove the Shambling Mounds at the bridge with our newly acquired Belm (while wearing the Girdle of...

Sorsha, human bard: Part 18 - continued From the Governmental District, we returned to the Slums once again to conclude some unfinished business with the slavers. First, there were Cohrvale and Bregg. The slaver guard patrolling the entrance to the boat was next. Sorsha: PfNW -> ogre form ->...

Sorsha, human bard: Part 17 - continued With II gone, we're now susceptible to single target spells. Putting some distance between her and Mae'Var, Sorsha awaited his next move. Enchantment incantation indicated charm of confusion type of spell. There we go - Domination. Sorsha countered the...

Sorsha, human bard: Part 17 - continued I'll spare you the boring details of the remaining fetch quests and fast forward to the battle with Mae'Var. Sorsha entered the guild cellar from the waterfront and prepared with Stoneskin, Strength, Shield, Polymorph: Self, Blur, ProEvil, MIs, Haste and...

Sorsha, human bard: Part 16 - continued With Renfeld on our back (in our bag?), we proceeded to the Docks where we stumbled into the Priest of Cyric. This guy is hilarious! Arbane in one hand and Namarra in the other, Sorsha stood her ground. Once we got him silenced, an epic shaolin battle...

Sorsha, human bard: Part 15 - continued Refreshing her DuHM, Sorsha the flind was able to dispatch the two trolls with ease and thus save the day. Hooray! It would have been a shame to report back to Hendak with an undepleted spellbook, as if we were not trying hard enough. And the otyugh...

Sorsha, human bard: Part 15 - continued Thinking about the battle plan against Captain Haegan and his thugs, we wanted to do something a bit more special. The decision was made and Sorsha equipped her Girdle of Bluntness and prepared with Shield, Strength, Polymorph: Self, Blur, ProEvil...
