That is kind of a weird pose... it's the big image, I think (for the character screen). But I guess it's to show that he's not weak. Well he starts out level 1, but he's not weak... Not your average person, for sure. He has one amazing power (from the start) that I could tell you (because it says so in the manual), but do you want to know? It is a major gameplay feature too, actually...
As for the skull, yeah, Murray is certainly one thing I was thinking (and was probably some of their inspiration for the character), but he's quite different. As fits this game he has a quite definite serious side... this isn't Monkey Island, after all. He is definitely funny with his insults, though. :)
You must be dissapointed a lot then... :) But this is the only D&D game I have ever played with no elves or dwarves...
Screenshot. You should notice how, compared to BG or IWD (the two other Infinity engine titles locked into 640x480) this game zooms in quite a bit to get big character sprites. It means closer ranged combat, but as I said most of the characters use mostly melee weapons (or magic) anyway...

Quote:I don't expect stereotypical RPG monsters anyway. I generally expect unique creatures and am disappointed by the same ol' stuff. I think that's why I like Night Elves more than High Elves in Warcraft. Yes, I do enjoy the classics now and again though .
