These are two kits I created for my own personal use. I have decided to share them if anyone wants to use them. They are a bit cheesy, but I have enjoyed using them. I haven't yet tested them thoroughly in EE, but they worked in BGT.
--------------------------------------------------------

--------------------------------------------------------
Amazon
Overview:
Amazons are female warriors in a male-dominated world. Their civilization may have been created by a deity who likes women, they might have been women who rebelled against male domination and decided to rule themselves, or they might simply have been matriarchal societies from long before recorded history.
Whatever their origin, they now live in civilizations or communities where women occupy the positions and roles traditionally held by men, especially the role of warriors and adventurers.
An Amazon culture may be small (a single town or island) or large (an entire country or continent), very advanced or very primitive. Some Amazon cultures keep men as servants and slaves, a stern reversal of the former status; others have no men in their communities, and take long holidays in order to visit friendly neighbouring tribes of men; others perpetuate their kind by being very hospitable to adventurers passing through their territory.
Amazons are generally respected as highly proficient warriors, their weapons of choice being spears and bows. They also have a knowledge of poisons, and a mild affinity with the natural world. Due to their female status, Amazons are often greatly underestimated, and they are quick to use this, along with any other, advantage in battle.
Advantages:
- Can poison weapons such as spears at level 10
- Can charm animals once every 4 levels
- Can use their female status to an advantage by using First Strike at levels 1, 10 and 14 (This grants them +3 damage and a superb bonus to their THAC0 for the first or second hit)
- Gain 1D10+1 hit points as opposed to 1D10
Disadvantages:
- Cannot be of Lawful alignment
- Can only use spears, axes, hammer, club, mace, and quarterstaff with any skill.
- Can only obtain Grand Mastery with spears, club, quarterstaff, and two handed weapons.
- May not place any points in two weapon skill.
- Wears no armour greater than splint mail
- Must be a Human or Half-Elf
Edit: 5/14/2013 - I have rebuilt the Undead Eliminator kit from scratch and changed many of the Advantages.
Edit: 1/25/2016 - I have updated the kits. The new file can be found at the end.
Edit 1/26/2016 - Added the RTT and Jarno's Amazon kit with some of my own changes
Edit 3/20/2018 - Made the mod compatible with EET

Also, isn't energy drain the same as level drain? Or you meant 'ability score drain' like those shadows drain STR per hit? And Undead eliminators really need a charm-domination immunity or ability that grants resistance to it, otherwise vampires will make fun of them with their dominating gaze. Just a thought. ^^
2. Energy drain is temporary and level drain is permanent (edit: i guess it's also stat drain). I'll look into the charm-domination thing.
Yeah a generic hold immunity is too powerful, does it also protect against stun? In some BG2 installations free action effect used to give immunity to stun effects of powerword:stun, symbol:stun, Celestial fury stun. etc.
I still think immunity to vampire gaze should be in. Is it possible to give the kit immunity to vampire gaze spell file, and only to that? For example, sirines and normal mages should be able to charm and dominate the undead eliminator, but a vampire can never hold sway on him.
I also removed the immunity to energy drain at level 5 and hope to replace it with immunity to vampire's charm or domination. I've asked for help over at G3, for these edits are above my head (creating spl files).
Hello,
I'm a bit confused about the Amazon description - it initially says, "their weapons of choice being spears and bows," but then says they "can ONLY use spears, axes, hammer, club, mace, and quarterstaff with any skill" (no bows).
Also, is this mod also compatible with BG2:EE and IWD:EE?
Thanks.
As for compatibility, I have used it in BG2EE but I have not played IWD so I cannot comment.
Is the Undead Eliminator restricted to putting no more than 2 points in Two Weapon Style? I can't seem to put a third point in that style when playing the kit.
Hello,
I wanted to say that I've been playing BG2 as an Undead Eliminator and I like the kit very much. However, I've encountered two (seemingly) bugs:
1. I'm not able to put more than two points in "two weapon style." I'm not sure if this is intended, but the kit description doesn't mention this as a restriction.
2. Bodhi was able to charm/dominate my Charname - is her charm different from those of other vampires?
Thanks.
Just to add to this, during my escape through the Spellhold maze, my Charname was both charmed AND held by a Yuan-ti mage.
If it means anything, I should point out that my charname dual'd from a UE to a cleric at level 7. However, she's currently at level 10 and had regained her UE abilities thus far.
