    It can take any creature under your control, adding it to your party just like any normal party-joining npc. You'll see it's stats, inventory etc. You'll only need a picture for it.

    I'm not certain but for Ctrl Q to work, you probably have to have the cheat/debug mode enabled. This is very easy to do and is explained in an article here at Sorcerer's:
    http://www.sorcerers.net/Games/BG2/cheats.php

    PS - don't forget you can always take Yoshimo as your thief in an evil party - he is Neutral so will put up with a lot and a very low reputation before he will want to leave.

    [​IMG] Hey I didn't know that. So I can take Irenacus (when he is not hostile) or Queen Elsime? I even meet Elminster in the Shaugain CIty! I'm trying this right now!

    But that's not the real Elminster, that's just an image. Just so you know. I still don't get why anyone would want Irenicus in their party. Wouldn't that cause complications, like when you get to Suldanessalar would "another" Irenicus be there?

    Thanks for the info guys. I'll try it out. Hmm... should I have Renal or Mae'var...

    PS: Yoshimo is a traitor and a wretch and shall be killed on sight by my al knowing all seeing Kensai/Mage!!
    Just kidding, I just want someone evil. You know, the kind of evil Minsc talks to boo about before bedtime (or is it the other way around...)

    Take Jan instead. He's neutral too and he'll stay with you the whole time and doesn't give a damn what evil things you do as long as you want to be his friends.
    And he's pretty good too!

    I have heard rumours that it is possible to keep him by kicking him out of your party before spellhold, then casting flesh to stone on him. Then when you get back, you cast stone to flesh, and talk to him before he explodes. I have no idea if this works, but feel free to try it.
