Missing Robes (http://nwn.bioware.com//forums/viewpost.html?topic=474596&post=4053671&forum=49&highlight=)
Try either:

1) Increasing the "Texture Quality" setting in the options->video options menu to something better than compatibility mode.

2) Turning on "Environment Mapping on Creatures" in the options->video options->advanced video options menu.

Enabling either of those options should make the robes appear.

Sectacular Speculations (http://nwn.bioware.com//forums/viewpost.html?topic=474936&post=4053711&forum=86&highlight=)
<hr />Well, if it's a direct continuation of PotSC, then it would have to allow for any of the "Where to now Cap'n?" options.

Orin Blackskull, however, chose to pillage and plunder.
The Undead Empire could be an eventual result of that, but then again his empire would be rather lawless.<hr />Not necessarily. It is possible to simply set the ending you want to build from. For example, Lucasarts, if developing a Star Wars story set just after the events of our Knights of the Old Republic game, could simply say that the events were followed by a male, light-side Jedi, and go from there.

So, it is possible that, if a sequel to PotSC were developed, we could say "So you decided to sink to the bottom of the ocean and await a time where you could return and have your curse removed" or whatever and start a sequel anytime after that. Heck, we could say "And then you woke up, and it was all a dream." and start the game over again!

While it would take some doing, it is possible to make almost anything fit into the Realms, whether through contrivances like waking up from a bad dream to the Machiavellian machinations of an individual or group.
