    Who is keeping Minsc in their party? Always one of my favorite NPC's, in what has got to be the "classic" BG lineup of PC + Imoen + Jaheira + Khalid + Minsc + Dynaheir
    Also one of the best overall fighters available.
    Who doesn't take Minsc? I suppose Gauntlets make his natural strength a moot point.

    Best thread in a long time. Thanks.

    Minsc's sexuality becomes clear when you ask him how he hid Boo from Irenicus. I forget his wording and am not sure of the correct term to describe a person with a miniature giant space hamster fetish, but "gay" is definitely not the correct term, although I suppose the case could be made if Boo is in fact a male miniature giant space hamster.

    I wouldn't say it was for sure a result of his head injury, but Minsc always struck me as being asexual. I was really tempted to pick "pansexual lovin' machine" though. That amused me.

    This our own version of unnecessary censorship? Jimmy Kimmel would be so proud.

    "Viconia: Minsc, that tattoo on your face. Does it have tribal significance or did some nursery’s fingerpainting class assault you with blue pastels?
    Minsc: I do not like the tone of your voice, dark elf! The face I have is the face the ladies love! Boo love’s Minsc’s face, too. Don’t you, Boo?"

    The next poll should be about turning Xan into metrosexual :p

    Like @Philhelm said, replace every vain/doomed etc with fabulous and we're game.

    @Quartz lol, if you read them that way they could be considered as hints :P

    Not gonna lie I was amazed by two things. One, by how easy it was to take so many of Minsc's lines in a sexual context, and two, that people actually appreciated my post haha! Pretty immature but yeah, sexual humor is just timeless, stupid, silly amusement.

    Really stupid poll

    Well, your lack of a sense of humor is kind of your own problem, it isn't on the OP. Sorry to break that to you.

    WAY TO DESTROY MY INNOCENCE!

    Now I can never look at him the same way... :(

    Except the fact he might has stuffed his a s s with an hamster to hide it from Irenicus (and I guess that's just a pun from the devs), I don't know how such thread could have been created.

    I honestly think that the most likely gay couple in the series is xzar and montaron.
  • MungriMungri Member Posts: 1,645
    Nah, Xzar doesnt love montaron and neither care when the other dies.

    They are evil. Also, they might be in a sadistic-masochist relationship.

    Wait ... Am I discussing of the sexual orientation of computer RPG characters ???

    Our quest is fabulous!
    We're all fabulous!
    We delude ourselves to think that our fabulous band will stand up to our enemies.
    Life is so fabulous.
    The bustle of the city makes me feel...fabulous.
    Let us save our effort and just lie down and be fabulous.

    Yeah...yeah that works.

    So in fact, might Garrick be gay ?

    "Life is wonderful" (If I recall properly)
