First Meeting with Sarevok - have him on a horse.

Would be cool if Sarevok rolled up on a black horse or something. That you bump into on foot is all well and good, but I like the idea of him being this big death knight BAMF on a massive horse.

Probably beyond what can be achieved with the old graphics, but still... Just one minor suggestion.

    How would you then flee to safety after he ambushes you?

    Can't be done as the devs are limited to existing animations, and Sarevok-on-a-horse isn't part of the package.

    Also, it'd have to be one mean-ass horse to carry that armour, along with the impossibly huge deathbringer.

    No horse is needed in my opinion. Sarevok is a bhaalspawn and it will look too earthly if he is on a horse. The way it is now is perfect. Huge, intimidating, armored figure and deep voice. What better first encounter than this.

    The case is closed!

    we can always develp a Ferrari for him, too, after all he's a rich son of a CEO from one of the richest companies in Faerum, so why not? If you don't like the Ferrari idea, we can use a lamborghini, no problem for me :)!

    Also, because nobody else really knows what he's doing, he'd have to avoid any mode of travel that was terribly ostentatious

    First meeting on horse... and in a black limousine for the Ducal Palace.

    If his horse doesn't have horse armour as the first DLC released then I'm not buying the game :P

    Sarevok on a chariot would be awesome. If Beamdog weren't impeded with this stupid arse contract that stops them making sizeable graphical changes or dialogue changes, a big Ben Hurr colliseum style scene would be classsss.

    As for the whole Sarevok turning up on foot, I just have a hard time picturing him, Tamoko and his two ogre cronies walking alllll the way from Baldurs Gate. I reckon they ditched the horses elsewhere and then made the rest of the way on foot, or dimension doored in using Bhaal magicks.

    So yeah, even if you have horses as props, dead or otherwise - maybe give the appearance that they're used to hasten transport etc, have a few standing off to one side outside of a tavern etc.

    I only support this feature being implemented if they parody the Old Spice commercial.

    First thing that came to my mind when I read the thread title :D

    You make him sound like ganon.

    Edit: @Djimmy: A 80s anime called "Hokuto no ken"(Fist of the north star) had as the final boss a guy on a horse(Ra-oh), he looked very almighty in the horse

    Look at yourself. Now back at me. Now my Horse is a Nightmare...

    @ZelgadisGW He's riding that horse like a surfboard, which I like.

    I can see it before me; you have just entered the stony field with Gorion. The old man suddenly tells you to prepare yourself and out of the mist rides a man on a dark steed, his long silken hair cascading down his shoulders, gently touching his naked back, outlining his muscles in the moonlight. The man rides up to you, takes your hand and asks you in a masculine voice "Aethernaut, will you be my bride?"

    It might look a little something like this:

    This part of Baldur's gate seems to be transforming into Equus.

    Doesn't his armor have spikes all over? Doesn't seem like such a great deal for the horse.

    But if he was riding the horse like a surfboard he should have to make a DEX check during his speech and if he fails he would fall off the horse in mid-line, pick himself up and continue talking as if nothing had happened. Because that's how he rolls...

    I kind of like the idea of the big S Surfing into view on a horse. He does have a dex of 17 afterall. Pretty good balance....
