Gromnir's goons

Remove all ads!

Can some one give me the exact names of Gromnir's goons, they come to his aid when you take the battle to his throne room, I have ascension installed. IIRC, they must be a spear wielding chick, minatour like guy, a cloak and dagger type guy, a fey creature who petrifies people, (and maybe charm stuff?) etc.

I ask this because some of my creature animations are corrupted by a mod, resulting in a crash in certain cases. For example, one of Illisera's henchmen (actually, the cleric) had an animation set to 'Drider female' (?) so it caused a crash. I edited it to 'female cleric elf' via Shadowkeeper and it worked. It was easy as Illisera's henchmen are all named as 'Black Ravers'. Gromnir's men and women have unique names, and I need their names to edit their CRE files to fix this. I can't remember their names, damn! And since one of them causes a crash upon entering the screen I can't check their names in-game. Duh!

 

I don't have the Ascension mod installed. But this is how I would solve the problem:
Start up Infinity Explorer, open the game Baldurs Gate 2: Throne of Bhaal.
Checking the World maps section, WORLDM25 contains the Throne of Bhaal areas. Saradush is AR5000, so we go to the Areas section and look for this AR5000. Here we find 16 sub-maps, so which is Gromnir's lair? We go to the Entry points section and start clicking on each entry area, 5002 looks promising. Now we go to area AR5002, yes this is the lair that we seek.

You go to the NPCs section, two characters are named, Gromnir and Karun the Black. To identify the other NPCs, you look at their CRE files, GromG##.cre. On the first page of each CRE file display you will find their name. You find GromG03 thru GromG05 have generic names but GromG09 and GromG10 have personal names: Eler Had, Berena Elkan.

 

Luckily I have a save right before the Gromnir fight. The names are Berena Elkan, Eler Had, Karun the Black, Ramazith, Halbazzer Drin, Lashar'ra, and the rest are one Ill-Khan Soldier and one Ill-Khan Battle Mage. Oh and also Gromnir Ill-Khan

Cool, that is one useful trick! Thank you!

Oh thank you, I found them all in SK and two of them had blank character animations, I fixed them Also, Ramazith and Halbazer Drinn are actually the names of NPCs from Baldur's Gate. But these versions are Gromnir's pets. Someone did recylce some of the cooler names, it seems.

 

Ramazith was one of the mages in the nymph quest in the city of Baldur's Gate, but who was Halbazer Drinn?

 

Not sure about Halbazer, but I do know that Lashar'ra the nymph that spawns in that fight has the name of that queen spider in Sendais place.

 

Halbazer Drinn is the rather grumpy owner and storekeep in Sorcerer's Sundries in BG. If I am not horribly mistaken. =)

 

I believe you are correct.
