Spell chants: The chants in BG & BG2 were supposed to be Latin. I don't speak Latin so I couldn't tell for sure. The chants in NWN are gibbereish.

Customising characters: The reason that you can't customize your character in multiplayer is because the database functionality that some PW servers use. The database information is associated with your character name, if you could change your character name then it would cause all of the database information for your character to essentially be lost on the server (actually the information would still be there, but it would no longer refer to your character). This would break plots and other things for your character on the server. This is the reason why the customize character feature is disabled in multiplayer.

Bane Of Enemies: Looks like we managed to squeeze the fix for bane of enemies into the 1.62 beta two patch, which will hopefully be available by the middle of next week. Although that could change if some thing unexpected comes up.
