Sigh, I hate to be the Elizabethan English police here, but the correct declension is "thy companions". "Thine" is a reflexive pronoun, as in "The advantage is thine". It can also be used as the possessive as you intend it, but only before a noun that begins with a vowel, as in, "I will smite thine enemies."
Sorry, but one of my makes-me-see-red pet peeves is writers who attempt to invoke the trope of "Ye Olde English" and have no idea about how to use the grammar.
You can't just use any old "thee", "thine", etc. willy-nilly thinking that you can automatically invoke the trope. You need to understand grammar, declensions, and conjugations, and if you don't, then *please* don't make a fool of yourself by trying to use Ye Olde English.
You got lucky with your use of "thou art". The correct conjugation is in fact "I am, thou art, he/she/it is, we are, you are, they are."
"Thou must gather together thy companions....Afore thou mayest venture forth."

I'm wondering if I should be offended. I was merely stating my preference over 3.5 compared to certain aspects of AD&D2. Lets not even go into the Fourth edition.
I remember this. I guess we were supposed to like Anomen because he was going to evolve a lot throughout the game, but that line killed it for me. Wasn't interested in him in the least after that.
Yeah, I remember that line from Anomen to my Totemic Druid. She wasn't too pleased with his remark. I've always wondered why I didn't experience an Anomen romance, but her dislike of that boorish remark probably killed it. Indeed, what Bhaalspawn woman (and saviour of the Swordcoast) would want a romance with such a man?

My female Paladin did - from what I remember, Anomen was hung like a donkey...lol

Never made a female charname in BG, I just read a comment about it by @LadyRhian. Then i had a bit of a google adventure and found the quote. Thought i`d score some points off of it and so went looking for a picture.

I'll tell you what is wrong: to assume that flipping 100 coins is 100d2. What if the coin lands on its side?
