Minsc and Boo

Minsc and Boo are probably the best part of this module, and that's coming from someone who hasn't even played Baldur's Gate. I've done the repeatable "Seed" quests a few times now and some of Minsc's comments in them still take me by surprise and make me chuckle. It's just a shame that three quests seem to be all these two feature in (unless there's one last hurrah after you've completed the roughly 200 hourly "tasks", which I may or may not find out one day.)

    1. He does say that (among other things). ^^

    2. That's his classic line from Baldur's Gate.

      When you're introduced to him in BG, he's the survivor of an attack that also kidnapped the person he was "supposed" to be protecting, and you're given a quest to go out and rescue her from Gnolls.

      His low INT score is explained away as having had one too many hits on the head while adventuring. ;-)
