1. New in this version: Everything in this version is new because this is the
first version of this guide.

2. Intrudution: Welcome to my Baldur´s Gate guide. In this guide you will find
everything you need to complet Baldur´s Gate. So lets get right to it, shall we.

3. When you start a new game you will get full freedome to what your character
should be good at and to be bad at. This part of the guide will guide you
through your creation of your character.

Gender:                 This one is up to you

Race:                   I would choose half elf if I was you, because they have
infravision and                                 good race bonuses. But this one does not
make such a big matter.

Class:                  This one makes alot of matter. I think my self that the
multiclasses are                                the best, choose the Fighter/Mage/ Thief
because the character is                                strong from fighter, can do
spells from mage and can steal, pick locks,                             hide in
shadows and have special back stab damage from thief.

Alignment:              This one reprecents how good or bad your character is. Choose
true                            neutral because they get well along with both good and
evil characters.

Abilites:                       This depends on what class you took strenght is for
fighters, dexterity                             for thief, constitution for rangers,
intelligence for mage, wisdom and                               charisma for paladin, bard
and druid. Try to get 18 on the one/s that                              you have, but
be shoure that none of the abilites get too low.

Skills:                         If you have a thief or a multiclass with thief you will
get a special skill                             window for thief skills. Stealth is
for how good your character will be to                          hide in shadows,
find traps is simple how good you character will be at
       finding and disabling traps, pick pocket is how good your character will
                               be at pick pocketing and stealing from stores and open
locks for how                           good your character will be at picking
locks. After that ther will pop up                              a screen where you will
choose at witch weapon your character will be                           best at using.
After that if you have mage or a cleric a screen for spells
       will then come.

Appearance:             Does not matter a bit.

Name.                   Its up to you.

There now you will have your self a character.

4. Walkthrough

You begine your adventure in nice city Candelkeep. From the position that you
begine, you can go to your left and enter the inn. Go talk to the in keeper and
buy anything you like. If you have a thief you could steal instead of buying.
But if you are going to steal, you better save first. If you like you can go and
talk to every one in town so you will get lots of small quest, but that is not
needed right now. Go around the castle that is in the mittle untile you find
some fountains. If you have gone to the right place a girl will come and speak
with you. It does not matter what your answer. Go up the stairs and talk to the
man there, it is Gorion, your stepfather. Say that you are ready to go, if you
are. After that it will be a long sequence where Gorion will be killed by a
armed figure.
