Serious question: did someone program the enemies to be as spiteful as possible? The following scenario happened three times in a row:

I was fighting Isbeil and trying to keep Sir Lora alive. I was doing fine, clearly about to win with only 1 or 2 dwarves left alive. And then: one of the dwarves jumps/teleports far away from my party, turns in the opposite direction, and throws a shield/spell at the far side of the room, exactly where Sir Lora is hanging out next to a stack of deathfog crates. What?! What?!?!

Breath in. Breath out. Breath in. Breath out.

Okay, I feel better now. :D

I did finally manage to keep Sir Lora alive by leaving him in the pit and blessing the poison. But I want to know whether there is an AI script that reads something like "If fight is hopeless, force player to reload by pissing them off."

I think Sir Lora just has a death wish. He also likes to block your path at ladders so they can't be used. Never have I finished a game with him being alive. Thankfully, he doesn't seem to know that he has died.

Let him die. His story arc doesn't change, and he won't trigger every bloody trap anymore. I kept him alive for most of the game, but when I fought the guy living in the sea of deatfog (near the end of the chapter) I just gave up. Twat killed himself essencially.

Ever fight the ferryman? The guy actually MAKES deathfog! And, yes, Sir Lora ran right through it.
