if you ask her to leave the group and she stands by the harper holdout,can you continue the game and pick her back up after you come out of the underdark and still continue the romance you started.

Bah Lok, actually there are two occasions that he can still continue romance.

1. If romance never started. To start it he had to accept Gaelan Bayle's proposal or to pay him - but not Bodhi. If he left her BEFORE he accepted or payed Gaelan, he can still collect her and activate the romance.

2. There is a bug ready to exploit in such cases. If he had Jaheira in the party, and romance was proceeding, and Revianne appeared and he kicked Jaheira out of the party any time AFTER Revianne appeared - romance won't get screwed! Yes, this is a bug. He can pick Jaheira up then and continue the romance. But one more kick out of the party and it is definetly screwed. I don't approve this exploit - it can lead to serious consequences to other parts of romance.

But, no matter.
As Lokken said - GO FOR VICCY!!! ;) :D

[EDIT]
Actually, YOU CAN CONTINUE romance with Viconia after you kick her out of the party.
It all depends on NPC you're romancing.

she comes around when have fooled about with jaheira long enough, as a part of the Harper quests.


and what does duhs mean... DU'H!?

as for kicking out romances, you can do it with the others, if you don't leave them away for more than a couple of ingame realtime days (2-3, still discussing with Extremist :p :p). I still hold on 2

No arguing - I'm always right. :p :p ;) :D

All NPCs will break romance if you leave them to wait for you more than 3 (three) days of ingame time.

All, except Jaheira. One single kicking her out of the party and your romance is screwed for good. Unless it is a moment I said above - but it is bug. Only if she leaves the party by her own will, romance will continue.

Sorry spelling is my worst subject.What if you leave for spellhold right after Meronia takes Jaheira away,will she pop up in the next chapter or will she wait until you finally get out of the underdark!

You can continue your romance with Jaheira despite kicking her out of the party before meeting Reviane as well. I don't know if she's bugged or if this is intentional. However, if you send her out of the party, even though she says "things can never be the same," when you catch up with her again and talk to her she'll give you that "do you really want me to leave?" speech, as if she was already a member of your party. If you say "no, stay," she'll keep romancing you. It's very odd.

NOTE: this is information from SoA only, so don't bite me, Extremist. (-: It actually happened to me while I was trying to romance Aerie, so I dropped Jaheira and took her back hoping that would whack her romance (it's a long story but Aerie's junior-highschool behavior whilst cat-fighting with Jaheira makes me ill, and I was trying to avoid it). It didn't work. She was still lovetalkin' me!

Sorvo, she'll wait for you if you want for 100000 days!!!

tjek, you're absolutely right, I misremembered the name. But it is EXACTLY THAT bug.
It is not Reviane who needs to appear so that bug occurs, it is Meronia!

Now, Meronia appears immediatly when both Bandit Plot and Xzar Plot are resolved.

Anyway, credits to tjek...again ;)

So I can take Viccy with me for the spellhold/underdark chapters and pick jaheira up when I get back and both their romances should continue as normal,as long as you havent gone to romance2 yet!

You're absolutely right.

You have both romances till the break moment occurs (global variable changes to 2).
In Viconia's case it happens when she says "I cast my white flag on you"... *evil grin*

When that moment occurs, both other romances are doomed for good.

Thanks, I would have been really pissed if I played all those hours and came back to find out no you can't. also was that bug fixed if I installed TOB.
