I'm happy to announce my new NPC: Hommet!
In need of a unique necromancer from different times? Meet Hommet Shaw, one of the Sword Coast Legends. Let him join your group after he lands in Icewind Dale as a result of a bizarre magic surge that sent him back in time. He isn't new to the world of adventures and has already faced powerful enemies. In the future, the villains he fought will try to invade the Sword Coast and cause problems in Luskan and its surrounding areas.
Hommet is a deadly blazing necromancer of chaotic good alignment. While he used to be neutral, he became a hero and revealed that his heart isn't as cold as those of the undead he usually summons. He'll join the party only if you decide to return to the Vale of Shadows after your main character hits 540 000 experience points.
This mod was created in memory of another game: Sword Coast Legends, and mentions events from this game. So... you may still get some spoilers. Not many, as Hommet wouldn't want to cause any time paradox! Anyway, consider this mod more like a late goodbye to a title that died a few years ago.
Still, the mod does not offer a boring puppet. It comes with dialogues, items and even three new spells Hommet may use. So... if you like necromancers with a good sense of humor, get this guy and show him what you're capable of. Join forces and save Icewind Dale from evil.

It's great to have all these companions and new areas for IWDEE. Thanks so much!
Cheers!

Thanks for creating this wonderful mod.
But I only had four characters in my party (including the PC) and was using the "hard" setting (which grants more experience points).
Maybe the xp requirement is just a bit high? I know you don’t want him popping up before Dragons Eye is done though.
Also as a side note it was my first time taking Tviy and he was pretty great. Llana also.
Hommet is a character from a different game. He already saved the world once. Making him weaker than he already is (I already had to lower his level) wouldn't feel right for me. Furthermore, he has less talks so it's actually normal he joins way later. He is like an easter egg NPC, a little something for the fans of Sword Coast Legends.
I'm glad you're enjoying the other NPCs, though! Hope you'll like what's there (...yet to be discovered).
I never played SCL but he seemed cool and its nice to have a mage option that isn’t Kahiri (not that she isn’t awesome just did a playthrough with her already).
Remember that it's not only Karihi and Hommet. Tipps is also an option and may fill the gap while you wait for Hommet to become available.
Cheers!
I just went with Ina as a stand in, honestly I didn’t realize how great bard spell progression is, she only really seems to be one or two top
level spell slots behind where a mage would be at the same xp.
