Thanks to Wombat, Vasculio, DosEquis, Isandir, and the EE modding community, especially for ALIEN, Argent77, smeagolheart, Bubb, CamDawg, DavidW, GraionDilach, K4thos, jastey, Pecca. Without their effort there would be no sense in modding the 30 years old game.
I am very open to ideas, hate, feedback, and I am willing to improve the mod.

The wrinkle/crease on the forehead is suggesting old age.
The next versions will include mod added NPCs, including BG2 versions of returning characters.
