Delainy Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Who is Durlyle?
A: Delainy is based on a character you meet in the Baldur's Gate expansion Tales of the Sword Coast. The protagonist would eventually travel to an island in search of Balduran's ship, where male characters would encoutner Delainy. For female characters, Delainy was replaced by Durlyle. We have plans to develop Durlyle concurrently with Delainy, although we usually just refer to Delainy.

Q: Will there be music and voicing?
A: We have plans for both, yes.

Q: Where can I find Delainy in the game?
A: Delainy will be somewhere in Athkatla, earning her keep as a bard. Her location will be randomized from a set list of starting locations (hint: think taverns) at the beginning of every game, as well as any time she leaves your party.

Q: Can Delainy be cured of lycanthropy?
A: No. Humans that are infected with lycanthropy can be cured by a priest under certain conditions. However, Delainy is a true lycanthrope from birth and therefore can not be cured. Delainy's lycanthropic nature is part of her personality and it is unikely she would purge it, even if it was possible.

Q: Are there quests/events associated with Delainy?
A: There will be a multi-chapter quest included with the mod; this quest will spawn and progress whether Delainy is in the party or not. There are presently three other, smaller encounters/quests that will require Delainy in the party.

Q: Who do you recommend taking in the party with Delainy?
A: Delainy will have at least four banters with every Bioware NPC (some as many as six), so include whichever NPCs you would normally travel with.

Q: Why is Delainy using the Cheyenne language?
A: Bri, the writer, knows Cheyenne and is using it to provide a bit of exoticism, similar to Viconia's use of Drow. That being said, don't expect to see too much of it.

Q: Where can I go to contribute/bitch/learn more?
A: As the mod is still in development, the Delainy forums are currently the best spot for additional information.
