    Alora NPC for BG2 (from Raven) has been updated and is now available with macOS and Linux support.

    This mod brings Alora, the halfling thief, from Baldur's Gate to Baldur's Gate II. She can be found in Ribald's store.


    Version 2.0 is BG2, ToB, BGT, BG2:EE and EET compatible (in the same package), comes with a French translation (by tonton-thon, proofread by jazira) and bug fixes.
