    And if you do get in, and register, you may not get confirmation. I managed to squeak in yesterday afternoon. Still haven't received any confirmation.

    I even cast "Summon Ratbert" on cphl, to no avail.

    [b]Article on NWNs with an interesting reference[/b]

    http://pc.ign.com/articles/357/357878p1.html

    Typical pre-release interview hype, with this interesting screenshot:

    (The second one down in the original art since that link is a monster ;-)

    This creature is dubbed "The Balor" and has a lightning sword. Hmmm, wonder whither the inspiration for him came?

    Perhaps from the Celtic-Irish mythology, Balor is the god of death and the king of the Fomorians, a race of demonic giants.
    Dunno 'bout the sword tho... ;)

    Using my spectacles of divination +2, and consulting my AD&D Monster Manual ('78 edition) I find that Type VI demons are unique creatures, one of which is named "Balor." The illustration looks to be based on Tolkien's balrog, because it carries a many-headed whip, has wings that appear to be flaming, and a lightning-shaped sword.

    I think in the current iteration of the rules, a Balor is a type of demon, rather than a unique creature.
