I ran into this guy, Venduris, right after staking Bodhi (my game went into a little movie scene, and Venduris with his posse ask me a bunch of questions about being a Bhaalspawn and stuff.

I backed down from a fight, but was curious about this character, so I checked up on him in a few different walkthroughs. But I can't find anything about him anywhere! Can people tell me about this guy?

Must be part of a mod, cos' I've never heard of him.

Isn't there one mod which adds an extra vampire encounter after you defeat Bodhi? Venduris could be part of that.

As I recall, that's part of Avenger's Rogue Rebalancing Pack. Basically (if I'm thinking of the right person) he's a servant of Cyric, who wants to kill you so that you won't oppose his god.

Those guys are the Chosen of Cyric from the rogue rebalancing mod.

If you have a save from around that time, I advise to load it and fight them; they have some pretty good items.

Ahh, it must be from that, then. I didn't even remember adding that mod until now!

I tried beating them, but they pick on the protagonist first, and I'm playing a Sorcerer (they take away all your defences before the fight begins).

Anyway, I figured it wasn't really worth it, and it's behind me now. Thanks!
