Jan Jansen is the best

He's definitely my favorite NPC.
He's funny, he's got personality, and he's freaking powerful.
Most people tote UAI as the best thief HLA, but I love Jan with his traps.
The rest of the team can have a tea party when Jan wants to go all out.

Too bad his personal quest is god-awful. Such a chore to travel all around in a mindless goose chase. I kill his quest messenger, his cousin IIRC, when he spawns and approaches the party. This way the quest can not be initiated. The cousin spawns later, again, though. And if he manages to initiate dialogue, you have to do his quest to keep him in party. So much chore.
I usually kit him out with the Firetooth +4 and the Staff of the Magi +5 by the end of Chapter 2 and then just leave him to do his gnome things. Maybe give him the robe of Vecna providing I haven't another character to use it.
He is the reason I almost exclusively play gnomes in pnp.
The tangled triangle between him, his love and his rival are one of the few character conflicts I find actually fairly convincing as well. It's too bad bioware never extended the plot to a more final conclusion; I realize there is a mod that does this but I'm dreading it turns out to be yet another poorly written mod that ruins the existing mini story for me.
In addition, i don't even know how you dare equip him with firetooth, when he already has the strongest ranged weapon of the game. (thx to his bolt ofc)
I would love to see a conversation between those two, by the way.
